Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

Liang Fang parked her bicycle aside and took the child from Chen Xueru.

The baby in the cradle may feel that the person in charge has changed and may show signs of crying.

She immediately shook her arms gently and coaxed the child softly to calm him down again.

He Yuzhu looked at the high spirits of He Yushui, shook his head and let her go.

He parked the tricycle and walked quickly towards Chen Xueru.

"Xue Ru, sister-in-law, let's go into the yard first. There are many children here, so Uncle Cai and Yu Shui will take care of them."

As he said this, he came to Chen Xueru and held her arm.

Chen Xueru looked at the children gathered in front of the courtyard gate, which made her, a new mother, feel special.

There was longing in her eyes, as if she saw her own child grow up to be so big and so lively and happy.

The children gathered in front of the courtyard gate took candies from He Yushui one after another.

Some children are so young that they can't help but tear open the candy wrapper and put it into their mouths.

He smacked his lips with relish, tasting the rare candy, his little face full of smiles.

Most of the teenagers who are about the same age as He Yushui are already sensible.

Although they all live in this alley, they basically rent the houses.

There are many children in the family and the housing is crowded. Those with better conditions also live in two rooms.

They held the candy in their hands, but they swallowed their saliva and tried to resist keeping it.

Some even trick their younger brothers and sisters into keeping the candies for you and put the extra candies into their own pockets.

They did not forget He Yuzhu, the real owner. After receiving the candies, they came to He Yuzhu and others and said a few auspicious words before leaving.

"Uncle Cai, please clean up outside. I will take Xueru in first."

He Yuzhu helped Chen Xueru to the steps and greeted Cai Quanwu.

Cai Quanwu turned to look at the two of them and nodded in response: "Okay! You go to the courtyard and settle down first, and leave these chores to me."

As he said that, he stuffed the candy bag in his hand into He Yushui's hand and walked towards the parking lot.

He Yushui quickly caught the bag and glanced at the few people left in front of her.

She turned her face to the side and said quickly: "Sister-in-law, I'll be ready soon and come to take care of you later."

When He Yuzhu heard that she wanted to take care of someone, the corners of his mouth twitched. Looking at Chen Xueru with a smile on her face, he resisted the urge to confront her.

Chen Xueru still has a very good attitude towards her sister-in-law He Yushui.

After all, she is just in her early teens and still a child.

The He family is not short of resources, and it would be better if He Yushui were more naive and romantic.

"Yushui, take your time! I have your brother to take care of me."

After she said that, she pinched He Yuzhu and signaled that it was time to go home.

The group walked through the front yard, returned to the familiar middle courtyard, and went along the corridor to the north house.

When I arrived at the bedroom, I found that the furnishings had changed a lot compared to a few days ago.

The sunlight shines into the room through the glass, but the glass windows are now closed.

There were two small beds in front of the wooden bed, surrounded by a circle of railings, which were obviously prepared for two children.

The door to the ear room was open and the bed was already made.

The ear room had been cleaned before, and Feng Liping moved in from her previous house and temporarily slept in the ear room.

The He family has no elders, so she has to take the lead in taking care of the baby.

He Yuzhu temporarily set up a bed in the study room opposite and did not live in this bedroom.

Children do not distinguish between day and night. They eat when they are hungry and sleep when they are full.

It starts to become lively at night, but is difficult to serve.

He has to get up early every day to go to work, so the noise of getting up is inevitable, so it is better not to disturb their rest.

After Chen Xueru sat down on the edge of the bed, He Yuzhu took off her shoes and helped her lie down.

"Xue Ru, just lie down and have a good rest. I'm really not good at taking care of children, so I'll go to the kitchen and make some soup for you."

He scratched his head and there was a hint of apology in his eyes.

This was Chen Xueru’s first time being a mother, and she had no experience in raising a child.

Of course, she knew that they knew each other, so she held his hand to comfort him.

"Brother Zhuzi, go get busy! I want to drink the soup you made."

Liang Fang gently placed the child in her arms on the crib, then stood up and looked at the young couple.

She rocked the crib gently and joked, "You two are good at this. You are both first-time parents. It would be strange if you knew everything.

Zhuzi, don't worry, we are here to watch over you. Go to the kitchen and get busy!"

Faced with Liang Fang's teasing, He Yuzhu now feels indifferent.

He patted the back of Chen Xueru's hand, let go of her hand, stood up, and smiled at Liang Fang and Feng Liping.

"Okay! With the two of you here, I can rest assured.

I'm sorry to bother you here. I'll go to the kitchen and prepare delicious food for everyone."

He Yuzhu hurriedly walked out of the bedroom, left the north room and headed towards the kitchen. Soon, there was movement coming from the kitchen.

He Yushui ran back to the central courtyard, the bag in her hand left an afterimage as she threw it, and she was obviously in a very happy mood.

She heard the rhythmic sound of cutting vegetables coming from the kitchen and knew that her brother was busy inside.

Since He Yuzhu came back, he can only cook on weekends.

He goes out early and comes back late every day, unlike before when he went to get off work and came home on time and could eat the food cooked by He Yuzhu.

As soon as He Yushui stopped, the taste buds in her mouth seemed to be activated and she couldn't help licking her lips.

She strode towards the kitchen, leaned on the door frame, and shouted loudly to He Yuzhu.

"Brother, give me some Beijing-style shredded pork! I haven't had your cooking for a long time."

After she said that, she ran away, knowing that this was the safest way and her brother would definitely do it for her.

If she stayed there, she would have to struggle a lot, which was something she had learned through experience.

When she arrived at the door of the north room, she wanted to go straight in to find Chen Xueru.

She suddenly thought of something, retracted her leg that had just stepped over the threshold, and ran towards her room.

After tidying up some time in her own room, He Yushui hurried to the north room with the envelope in her hand.

When she arrived at the bedroom door, she heard the low conversation inside and involuntarily slowed down her pace.

"Mrs. Feng, sister-in-law!"

He Yushui gently greeted the two people sitting beside the crib and put his hands behind his back.

Her little action could not escape everyone's eyes, but there was no need to expose it, so she just smiled and nodded in response.

She ran to the wooden bed, sat on the edge, and moved closer to Chen Xueru.

"sister in law!"

He Yushui shouted, and then stuffed the envelope in his hand into Chen Xueru's hand.

Chen Xueru looked at He Yushui in surprise, not understanding why they had to be so secretive about it being just a letter.

She couldn't help but feel curious and held the envelope in her hand in front of her.

As she pulled out the letter paper, she unexpectedly brought out some money.

Chen Xueru quickly reached out to grab the scattered money and looked at He Yushui with a puzzled look on her face.

"Rainwater, what is this for?"
