Siheyuan: The eldest brother of the He family, abuses Shazhu at the beginning

Beijing in the 1960s was an era full of change and turmoil. Political movements and social trends were constantly impacting people's lives. However, during this era, life in the courtyards seemed unusually peaceful and interesting.

There are all kinds of people living in the courtyard, including retired workers, young intellectuals, and outsiders from rural areas. They live in the same courtyard, know each other, and cherish each other, and go through the ups and downs of this era together.

He Yuliang's courtyard is a courtyard with a lot of historical heritage. The wood carvings on the gate are mottled, and the vines on the wall cover the entire surface. Whenever the sun sets, the courtyard can be heard with the laughter of children and the gossip of neighbors, as if the whole courtyard is telling its story.

In this courtyard, every family has its own story and legend. There is a family who hid a stolen kitten in their home, which was discovered by the children in the yard, triggering a big discussion among the parents; there is another family who has a strange plant growing in their yard, which is said to be able to cure various minor illnesses, attracting countless people to ask for medicine; there is another family who has a very naughty dog ​​living in their home, which often runs around and brings a lot of trouble and joy to the neighbors.

Behind all this, He Yuliang has always played the role of a silent observer and participant. He used his carpentry skills to help neighbors repair furniture and build huts, and at the same time left his footprints and stories in every corner of the yard.

In Beijing, a bustling city full of vibrant life, life in the courtyard houses is always full of countless surprises and fun things.

He Yuliang and his neighbors live in a courtyard with a long history. Although this courtyard is very old, it still retains its unique charm. The wood carvings on the gate are mottled but exquisite, the stone pavement in the courtyard is weathered but neat, and the vines on the courtyard wall are lush but not messy.

One sunny afternoon, He Yuliang was repairing an old wooden chair in the yard. He was waving the woodworking tools in his hand attentively, thinking about the next step while repairing it. At this time, an angry voice suddenly came from the yard: "This is my sweater, whether I can wear it or not, it is mine!"

He Yuliang looked up and saw Yan Jiedi holding a lavender sweater in her hand with an angry expression on her face. Yan Jiedi was a young woman in the courtyard. She was usually gentle and elegant, but at this moment she seemed a little angry.

He Yuliang put down the carpentry tools in his hand, walked towards Yan Jie Di, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong, Sister Jie Di? Did something happen?"

Yan Jie Di said angrily: "I put this sweater in the yard to dry, but it disappeared when I turned around. Now I saw someone else wearing it. I asked her for it, but she said it was hers! This is simply outrageous!"

He Yuliang frowned, thinking that this was really a troublesome matter. He took a deep breath, then smiled and said to Yan Jie Di: "Sister Jie Di, don't be angry. Maybe there is some misunderstanding? Let me talk to the person wearing your sweater and see if we can solve it."

Yan Jiedi nodded, her brows slightly relaxed. He Yuliang turned and walked into the yard, and soon found the girl in the lavender sweater, who was chatting with another neighbor.

He Yuliang walked up to them and said with a smile, "Little girl, I heard that you are wearing Sister Jie Di's sweater?"

When the girl heard what He Yuliang said, she looked at him with a little surprise, then nodded and said, "Yes, this sweater is indeed mine, but I didn't know it was Jie Di's."

He Yuliang knew that this was probably a misunderstanding. He smiled and said, "Maybe there is some misunderstanding. Jie Di also likes this sweater very much, but it may be that her sweater was mixed with yours. Can you return the sweater to her?"

The girl frowned slightly after hearing this, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll get it to her first."

He Yuliang watched the girl's back disappear into the yard, secretly feeling lucky. Sometimes, a little misunderstanding can lead to an unnecessary quarrel, and resolving them requires some patience and understanding.

After a while, the girl came back with the sweater. She handed it to Yan Jiedi and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, I didn't know it was your sweater. I thought it was mine."

Yan Jiedi took the sweater, and the anger in her eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by a hint of gratitude and apology. She smiled and said, "It's okay, as long as the misunderstanding is resolved. Thank you for returning it to me."

The girl also smiled and nodded, then turned and left. He Yuliang looked at this scene and felt a little relieved. Conflicts and misunderstandings in life can often be resolved through communication and understanding. In this courtyard full of warmth and harmony, everyone can find belonging and peace.

Life in Beijing's courtyard houses is still lively and peaceful. He Yuliang, a young man who was born as a carpenter, has become a know-it-all in the courtyard. He is not only good at repairing various furniture, but also often serves as a mediator between neighbors. One day, at noon, He Yuliang was busy repairing an old-fashioned table in the courtyard, and a noisy sound broke the peace.

"Isn't this your responsibility? Why do you want me to fix it!" an angry voice came.

He Yuliang looked up and saw the neighbor's child pointing at an older man and blaming him.

The man was obviously a man with a bad temper. He said with a straight face: "I'm telling you, you broke the table, so you have to fix it!"

The child pouted and replied unconvincedly: "I didn't break it. You accidentally knocked it over."

The quarrel became louder and louder, and the other people in the yard were also woken up. He Yuliang walked over and tried to resolve the dispute.

"What happened?" he asked.

The man pointed at the table and said, "This guy knocked over my teacup, causing the water on the table to spill onto the floor. Now he is responsible for repairing it."

The child stamped his feet angrily and said, "I didn't mean to do that!"

He Yuliang frowned. This was really a troublesome matter. He looked at the table and found that there were indeed water stains on it, but there were some signs of wear and tear on the corners of the table, which did not seem to have appeared today.

"Wait a minute," He Yuliang said, "The wear and tear on this table doesn't look like it just happened today. Maybe it existed before."
