Siheyuan: He Yuzhu since 1958

Both Lv Guoliang and Niu Guihua knew the situation of their eldest son, but they didn't expect their mother to say it so directly. Lv Guoliang and Niu Guihua looked at each other, and Lv Guoliang said, "Wait a few years, when Hutou and Xiaohai can work, I will divide the family property for the children. Whether they live a good or bad life in the future is their own business, and Guihua and I will not care. If they are busy at work and can't take care of the children, Guihua and I can help them."

Lu Taihe said: "Dad, don't blame my brother. The main reason is that he has never suffered much. His journey was too smooth. He has developed an illusion that we should all revolve around him. He is the center of the earth."

He Yuzhu asked: "How did you understand that?!"

Lu Taihe said: "I didn't understand it myself. My master taught me."

He Yuzhu said, "I'll prepare some things later. Pick them up and give them to your master for me."

Lu Taihe said: "Brother Zhuzi, you don't need to prepare. I will honor my master myself. After the New Year, I plan to separate from my brother and transfer to the first team of large vehicles."

The transportation department of the steel rolling mill is divided into three teams. They are the first team, the second team and the small team. The small team is equipped with jeeps. It mainly serves the factory leaders. The first team is a long-distance team. Basically, they run all over the country. The second team is mainly responsible for the city of Beijing and its surrounding areas, and the farthest is Tianjin. Currently, Lv Taishan and Lv Taihe are both in the second team.

He Yuzhu advised: "When you travel long distances, you should pay more attention to safety on the road. Don't be greedy for the money, bring people along the way. You can go to the destination and see what specialties there are. If you come back empty-handed, you can take the specialties with you and I will help you deal with them."

Lu Taihe said: "Brother Zhuzi, don't worry! I know what's going on."

About half an hour later, Huang Ying came back. He Yushui and the other two followed Huang Ying back. Huang Ying pushed the door open and walked into the house, smiling and asking, "What's going on?!"

He Yuzhu said, "What else could it be? Taihe will tell you about what happened when he was driving." He Yuzhu raised his wrist to check the time on his watch, then said, "You guys chat, I'll go prepare the food."

Niu Guihua said: "Zhu Zi, I'll help you."

"No! No! There aren't many dishes. I can do it by myself." He Yuzhu said and walked into the kitchen. Huang Ying chatted with them for a while and walked into the kitchen. He Yuzhu asked: "Have you told Taihe?!"

"I said it!" Huang Ying replied, and then asked: "What dishes are you cooking today?!"

He Yuzhu replied, "What else can I cook now?! It's good to have something to eat. I got a silver carp through some connections. I plan to use it in four ways. I'll chop half of the head into pepper and stew the other half in soup. I'll braise the tail. I'll make smoked fish and fish balls from the middle of the fish. I'll put the fish balls in the soup. I've also soaked some rice noodles. I'll put them in the soup later. I'll also stir-fry two more vegetables. For the main meal today I'll have a steamed bun made from two cups of flour."

Huang Ying smiled and joked, "Zhu Zi, you've caught a lot of fish recently!"

He Yuzhu pointed to the water tank behind him and said, "Look for yourself!"

Huang Ying followed the direction He Yuzhu pointed and walked to the water tank. She opened the bamboo basket and saw a dark area inside. There were about seven or eight fish. Huang Ying asked, "Zhuzi, where did all these fish come from?!"

He Yuzhu replied: "Some were caught by my grandfather, and some were caught by me."

Huang Ying joked, "I knew Grandpa was good at fishing. I didn't expect you to be so good at it, too."

He Yuzhu replied: "Your man knows a lot. Just explore it slowly!"

"I told you you're fat, and you're out of breath!" Huang Ying closed the bamboo basket, walked to He Yuzhu's side, and said, "I'm going to go out first. Take your time."

"You go!" After He Yuzhu sent his wife away, he muttered in his heart: "Fortunately, I was prepared. Otherwise, there is really no way to explain it! It seems that I should be more careful in the future. I don't want to be sliced."

A little after ten o'clock. Lu Taishan led Liang Qiuyu into the courtyard. Yan Bugui wanted to go up to find out what was going on, but before Yan Bugui could speak, Lu Taishan had already led Liang Qiuyu around Yan Bugui and walked directly into the middle courtyard. Yan Bugui looked at the backs of the two, sighed, and turned back to his home.

The third aunt saw Yan Bugui sighing and asked, "Old Yan, what's wrong with you?!"

Yan Bugui replied: "It's all Yi Zhonghai's fault. He caused our relationship with He Yuzhu to become so strained. How much has our family lost in the past few years?!"

The third aunt said, "Yi Zhonghai has been dead for so many years. How can you, a living person, still be arguing with a dead person?"

"Hey?! What you said is true!" Yan Bugui echoed and asked, "Where's Jie Cheng?! Why haven't I seen him so early in the morning?!"

The third aunt replied: "I think he went out!"

Yan Bugui was slightly stunned and said, "He went out? Where could he go?!" Then a flash of inspiration flashed through Yan Bugui's mind, and he said, "He's not going out on a date, is he?!"

"Date?!" Auntie hesitated for a few seconds and said, "No way?!"

Yan Bugui smiled bitterly and said, "It's hard to say."

"Knock! Knock! Knock!" Lu Taishan brought Liang Qiuyu to the door of He Yuzhu's house and knocked on the door.

Hearing the knock on the door, Hu Tou looked out the window and said with a smile: "Big brother is here!" After that, Hu Tou opened the door and shouted excitedly: "Big brother!"

"Tiger Head is here!" Lu Taishan greeted and walked in with Liang Qiuyu. Lu Taishan handed the things in his hand to Huang Ying and said, "Sister Yingzi, this is for you and Zhuzi." Then he walked to Lu Shunyi and Cui Juan and called, "Grandpa, Grandma!" Then he put the things in his hand on the table and said, "This is what Qiuyu bought for you."

Liang Qiuyu stepped forward and called respectfully: "Grandpa, grandma, I am Lu Taishan's girlfriend, my name is Liang Qiuyu."

"Xiao Liang! You came just like that, and you're so polite!" Cui Juan agreed with a smile, and then urged: "Xiao Shanzi, why don't you introduce your partner to someone soon?!"

"Hey!" Lu Taishan responded and introduced his parents, brothers, and He Yuzhu's family to Liang Qiuyu.

After Liang Qiuyu greeted everyone present one by one, he was pulled to Cui Juan by the outgoing He Yushui. Soon Huang Ying and Niu Guihua also joined in the conversation.

Lu Taishan was pulled aside by Lu Guoliang and asked, "Have you thought about it?!"

Lu Taishan understood what his father meant and nodded, "I've thought about it!"

Lu Guoliang went on to say, "Now that you have made up your mind, I will talk to Zhuzi about the house for your marriage and ask him to arrange a place for you. But we have an agreement in advance. When you meet the factory's housing allocation standards, you can apply for a house from the factory and then move out."

Lu Taishan was slightly stunned and asked, "Dad, where is Zhuzi's house?!"

Lu Taihe walked to the side of Lu Taishan and Lu Guoliang and said, "Brother Zhuzi has a friend who is going to work in another place for a few years. Let Brother Zhuzi help look for a house. The house is in Jingyang Hutong."

Lu Taishan asked: "Is this appropriate?!"

Lu Guoliang said: "Whether it is suitable or not, you can just ask Zhuzi and find out! "

Lu Taishan was already a little excited at this time. Originally, Lu Taishan planned to let Lu Taihe live in He Yuzhu's house. He vacated the two rooms over there and renovated them to make his new house. Now that there is a ready-made house, it doesn't need to be so troublesome. Lu Taishan asked: "Where is Zhuzi?!"

Lu Guoliang said: "He is in the kitchen."

"I'll go find him right now!" After saying that, Lu Taishan walked towards the kitchen.
