Siheyuan: He Yuzhu since 1958

He Yuzhu said: "Master, please don't blame Xiao'e. Buying a house was my decision."

Tan Lingya said, "You! You only know how to pamper her."

He Yuzhu said: "Isn't it right to pamper your wife?!"

"Okay!" Lou Zhenhua tried to smooth things over, saying, "Buying a house is also a good thing. Since the kids like it, let them buy it!" Then he asked, "Where did you buy the house this time?!"

Lou Xiao'e said, "Dad! The house we bought this time is very close to here. It's just three alleys away. It's a three-story courtyard house with a garden."

"The house over there?!" Lou Zhenhua muttered, and a long-forgotten memory from the bottom floor emerged. He asked, "Is it that family's house?!"

Lou Xiao'e asked, "Dad, which family do you know?!"

"I guess we know each other!" Lou Zhenhua replied, and asked, "Didn't that family go abroad a long time ago?!"

Lou Xiaoe replied: "When we went there, there was a man named Na Qiao Na Lao San living there."

"So it's him! I didn't expect him to survive the storm." Lou Zhenhua came to his senses and said, "That yard is not small. It must be expensive, right?!"

Lou Xiaoe replied, "He offered 20,000. He Yuzhu didn't bargain at all and was going to give him Hong Kong dollars directly." Then Lou Xiaoe remembered what happened before she knocked on the door and asked, "Zhuzi, you haven't told me yet. Why do you want to buy this yard?!"

He Yuzhu replied, "That house suits my taste." Then he muttered to himself, "I can't tell you that there are good things hidden in this yard?!"

Lou Xiao'e nodded in agreement and said, "You're right. I've seen many courtyard houses, but this is the first time I've seen such an elegant courtyard house."

Tan Lingya had also reacted by now and asked, "Is the courtyard you are talking about the outer residence of the last Minister of Revenue of the Qing Dynasty?!"

Lou Zhenhua replied: "That's it!"

Lou Xiao'e asked in confusion, "Dad! Mom! What are you talking about?!"

Lou Zhenhua said, "Let's talk about the yard you bought today. You two have good taste. This yard is great!"

After staying at Lou's house for a while, He Yuzhu said goodbye and left. The next morning, He Yuzhu went to Lou's house to pick up Lou Xiao'e, then went to the third child and took him to the Housing Management Office.

The third brother was quite straightforward. After completing the house transfer procedures and taking the money, he handed the key to He Yuzhu directly, then left with his luggage. After the third brother left, He Yuzhu leaned against the pillar at the entrance, looked at the yard, and said, "Xiao'e, from now on this yard is yours. How do you want to change it?!"

"I haven't decided yet!" Lou Xiao'e replied. Suddenly she thought of something, turned her head and looked at He Yuzhu, and said, "We still have more than a month to get married. I'll find someone to help you with the paperwork. How about you come with me to Gangcheng?"

He Yuzhu thought for a moment and replied, "No problem. I'll give you the household registration booklet later."

"Okay!" Lou Xiao'e responded, walked to He Yuzhu's side, rested her head on He Yuzhu's shoulder, and said, "It would be great if time could stop!"

He Yuzhu put his arm around Lou Xiao'e's shoulders and said, "If you like, I will stay with you like this in the future."

It's not to mention that Lou Xiao'e's efficiency is quite fast. It only took her fifteen days to help He Yuzhu complete the procedures for going to Gangcheng. Because the four children in the family are all in college, the grandparents don't need him to take care of them. He Yuzhu said hello to his family and followed Lou Xiao'e to Gangcheng.

Lou Xiao'e walked into the reception hall and saw Lou Bingnan waiting there. Lou Xiao'e excitedly called out, "Brother!"

Lou Bingnan waved at Lou Xiaoe. Lou Xiaoe rushed into Lou Bingnan's arms and asked, "Brother, do you miss me?!"

Lou Bingnan smiled and replied, "I don't miss you!" Then Lou Bingnan looked at He Yuzhu who was following behind Lou Xiaoe and asked, "You are my brother-in-law, right?!"

Lou Xiao'e broke free from Lou Bingnan's arms, coughed twice, and said, "Brother, let me formally introduce him to you. He is He Yuzhu, your brother-in-law." Then she introduced him to He Yuzhu, "Zhuzi, he is my elder brother Lou Bingnan."

He Yuzhu hurriedly called out, "Brother!"

"Hmm!" Lou Bingnan looked at He Yuzhu, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Not bad! You are qualified to be my brother-in-law." Then he looked at Lou Xiaoe and said, "The car is waiting outside! Let's go!"

After leaving the airport, Lou Bingnan took Lou Xiao'e and He Yuzhu into the car and asked, "Xiao'e, you are getting married soon. What are you two doing in Hong Kong at this time?!"

Lou Xiao'e said: "Come to Hong Kong City to find a designer to help us design the wedding room."

Lou Bingnan said: "Designers are easy to find. One of my friends is a designer. He is a top designer who just won an award abroad."

Lou Xiao'e said: "Brother, please find a time for us to meet him."

"Sure!" Lou Bingnan agreed very readily.

Near dusk, Lou Bingnan sent Lou Xiao'e and He Yuzhu to the Lou family villa halfway up the mountain, said hello to them, and left.

After Lou Bingnan left, Lou Xiaoe packed up her things and walked behind He Yuzhu, who was standing in front of the French window looking at the scenery outside, and asked, "What are you looking at?!"

He Yuzhu replied: "To see the scenery."

Lou Xiao'e snuggled into He Yuzhu's arms and said, "My dad also likes to stand here and enjoy the scenery. We are really not from the same family."

He Yuzhu smiled and asked, "What are your plans for tomorrow?!"

Lou Xiaoe replied, "I haven't decided yet." Then she asked, "Where do you want to go?!"

He Yuzhu replied: "I don't know much about Hong Kong. How can I know where to have fun?! Once we're here, I'll listen to you!"

"Miss! The meal is ready!" Just then the servant walked behind Lou Xiao'e and He Yuzhu and reported.

"Got it!" Lou Xiao'e replied, looked at He Yuzhu, and said, "Let's go! Let's go eat!"

"Okay!" He Yuzhu responded and followed Lou Xiao'e to the restaurant.

When He Yuzhu and Lou Xiao'e were about to finish dinner, the phone rang. Lou Xiao'e walked to the phone, picked up the phone, and asked, "Who is this?!"

Lou Bingnan said, "Xiao'e, I've already made an appointment with the designer for you. I'll come pick you up tomorrow morning."

"Thank you, big brother!" After that, Lou Xiao'e hung up the phone, walked to He Yuzhu's side, and said, "The designer has made an appointment. Big brother will come to pick us up tomorrow morning."

He Yuzhu said: "After we meet with the designer, we will arrange the next itinerary."

"Okay!" Lou Xiao'e responded and asked, "Didn't you say you wanted to open a company in Hong Kong when you came here? What kind of company do you plan to open?!"

He Yuzhu blurted out without thinking, "Asset management company. We will have more and more houses in the future. We can't manage them all by ourselves. I want to set up a company and hire someone to help manage them."

Lou Xiao'e asked: "You mean you still want to buy a house?!"

He Yuzhu nodded and said, "Who would complain that they have too many houses?!"
