Siheyuan: Rebirth of Shazhu, Many Children and Blessings

After returning home, He Yuzhu asked He Yushui to look after the children first, and then he went back to Lou's house alone with Lou Xiao'e.

"Dad, I plan to arrange for some people to go there first. How can we contact uncle and the others when we get to Hong Kong?"

"How many people are there? When will they set off?"

"Eleven adults and two children." He Yuzhu said, "I'll let the Ran family go first."

"Those two children are yours?"

"Yeah." He Yuzhu nodded in acknowledgement.

Seeing He Yuzhu admit it so readily, Lou Zhenhua looked at him dangerously.

"Good boy, how many things are you hiding from us?"

"Dad, Xiao'e knows everything about me."

"Yes, Dad, I know everything about Brother Zhu." Lou Xiao'e also chimed in.

Lou Zhenhua laughed twice, and without further questioning, he just said, "You are a brave boy."

"I'll ask your uncle to pick someone up at the dock. The one from the Ran family is called Ran Zhengming, right?"

"Yes, Dad." He Yuzhu was not surprised at all that Lou Zhenhua had sent people to investigate the Ran family's background.

"Okay, I understand." Lou Zhenhua nodded.

"Then when do we set off?"

"Let's wait for a while. I'll leave after I finish the things I have on hand." He Yuzhu replied.

"Well, in that case we can start preparing."

"Okay, Dad."

After the two families had discussed it, He Yuzhu took Lou Xiao'e back home.

"Brother Zhu, when are you going to tell the others?"

"Don't worry, we still have some time before we set off. Let's tell them when the time comes. It's not a good thing to know about this too early."

"That's fine." Lou Xiao'e nodded, "I'm just a little worried about Yu Li and Sister Qin."

"I will ask Lily for her opinion, but Qin Huairu will definitely not abandon the Jia family, so there is no need to consider her at all."

"Then should we not tell her at all?" Lou Xiao'e asked.

"Well, it's better not to let her know about this. When you interact with her in normal times, be careful not to let anything slip." He Yuzhu reminded.

"Okay, brother Zhu, don't worry."

Then Lou Xiaoe thought again, "But what about Xiaodang?"

"I won't force her. Let her make her own choice when the time comes."

"Alas, this is the only way." Lou Xiao'e sighed softly, feeling a little complicated.

After a few days, Zhou Ziyi graduated from high school and returned.

He Yuzhu came to Liu Lan's home.

"Ziyi, Fengxia, you will set off in two days and go to Xiangjiang with Qiuye first."

"Brother He, why doesn't Sister Lan come with us?" You Fengxia was a little confused.

"Sister Lan is also an employee of the steel mill. If she leaves first, it will definitely cause some unnecessary trouble."

"So that's how it is." You Fengxia nodded and looked at Liu Lan again.

"But Sister Lan, can you trust Ziyi to go with us first?"

"Of course I'm relieved." Liu Lan said with a smile: "Ziyi has been steady since he was a child, and now he is almost 18 years old, and he will be a real adult.

Rather than saying that I am worried about Ziyi, I am actually more worried about you."

"Me?" You Fengxia widened her eyes.

"Yes, you are taking care of two children by yourself. Even if Ziyi is here, I am worried that no one will help you. It will be too hard for you to take care of the children."

"Don't worry about that. Mei Qing and Tao Yujiao will be there by then, and they will help."

"Brother He, how many people are going with us this time?"

"Including the two children, there are thirteen people in total." He Yuzhu replied: "Don't worry, when you get to Hong Kong, Xiao'e's uncle will be there to pick you up.

After you go there, the main thing is to settle yourself down first."

"Ok."

"The language over there is a little different from here. You'll probably have to learn it all over again."

He Yuzhu then looked at Zhou Ziyi, "Ziyi, have you learned English?"

Zhou Ziyi shook his head. "I just learned a little bit from the radio. I barely know it."

"It's okay. You have a strong learning ability. I'll let Aunt Qiuye teach you more when the time comes."

"Okay, godfather."

"Pack your things in the next few days. I'll call you when it's time to leave."

"Okay, godfather."

......

Ran Qiuye found He Yuzhu.

"Qiuye, what's wrong?"

"Brother Yuzhu, I have something I want to ask you first."

"What's the matter?" He Yuzhu saw that Ran Qiuye looked a little sad, and he didn't know what troubles she had encountered.

"We're leaving in a few days, and we probably won't be back for many years."

Ran Qiuye looked at He Yuzhu and said.

After seeing him nod, she continued, "Yan Zi and I have always been like sisters. I don't know if I can tell her about this."

"Of course you can tell her. Don't forget that Chen Xing and I are also very good brothers."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, it turned out that this was what Ran Qiuye was worried about.

"Chen Xing will arrange a car to take you to the boat when the time comes, so he knows about this."

"Really? That's great." Ran Qiuye was very excited.

Because of this, she hasn't slept well for many days.

"Take advantage of these few days to hang out and play more with Yan Zi," said He Yuzhu.

"Yeah." Ran Qiuye left happily.

Soon it was the day we had agreed to set off.

He Yuzhu took Uncle Meng from the Lou family to pick up Ran Qiuye's family, while Chen Xing arranged three cars to pick up Mei Qing and the other six people, as well as You Fengxia and Zhou Ziyi.

He Yuzhu gave each car a box of small yellow croakers, and then gave unified instructions.

“Once you get there, the most important thing is to settle down first. Try to live in the same building as the Lou family’s uncle.

The things in here should be enough for you to buy a small house in Hong Kong."

The price of a small yellow croaker (one liang) is equivalent to 235.5 Hong Kong dollars, and the box of small yellow croakers that He Yuzhu gave them is about 10 kilograms, which is equivalent to more than Hong Kong dollars.

这个时期的香江文员的月薪大约在100-300港币，公共房屋月租大约80-200港币，若是买一套私人住宅则大约要1.5万-2.5万元一套。

A typical private residence is only about 40 to 50 square meters, so the box of small yellow croakers given by He Yuzhu can only just buy a thousand-square-foot mansion.

However, the wealth accumulated by He Yuzhu over the years is not much. This is already four-fifths of his total property.

He also had to save some for himself. After all, when he went to Hong Kong, he couldn't ask his father-in-law for money for everything. That would be so embarrassing.
