Siheyuan: Cooking journey

The more Qin Huairu thought about it, the more she wanted to cry. She choked up and asked, "Did he leave any words?"

"No."

After hesitating for a while, He Yuzhu shook his head. The death was fabricated, so how could there be any message left?

Now that you have left, let the past experiences go with the wind. There is no point in knowing them.

"Thank you for telling me about him..."

Qin Huairu sobbed softly and wiped her tears with the back of her hand, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't wipe them away.

Seeing her crying like rain, He Yuzhu hesitated for a moment, then took a step forward involuntarily.

I just opened my mouth, and before I could say anything to comfort you,

Qin Huairu came over and hugged him tightly.

He Yuzhu's body stiffened, and after adjusting himself slightly, he raised his hand and gently patted her back.

Feel his tenderness,

Qin Huairu's eyes were filled with tears. She hugged him tighter and cried even louder.

Whether he minded or not, she would never let go...

When He Yuzhu returned to the courtyard.

It was getting late and dinner at home had long been over.

Ran Qiuye was clearing the dishes on the table.

Seeing him coming back, Ran Qiuye asked with concern: "Why did you come back so late? Have you eaten? How about I heat up something for you?"

"No, Director Yang came to see me this afternoon. We talked for a long time and then had dinner together."

He Yuzhu hugged her gently, looked around the room, and asked softly:

"Where's Nianqiu?"

"I went to Yushui to play. I got along really well with Pingping."

Ran Qiuye frowned and looked jealous.

"Sometimes I wonder if this child is my biological child. She doesn't seem to be that close to her mother."

He Yuzhu was delighted and comforted her, saying, "Don't talk nonsense. I was there when you gave birth to her. I can't be wrong."

"It would be better if she was really taken away by mistake. It's because she is our daughter that I feel even worse."

Ran Qiuye grumbled, hugged him tightly, and said sadly: "Tell me, have you failed as a mother? Even your own daughter is not close to you." He Yuzhu patted her back and gently counseled her:

"Nianqiu is just curious about new things. Maybe she really found a good friend. Just like she is usually very close to Xiaodeng, why didn't you get jealous at that time? Don't think too much. Our good girl can't run away."

"By the way, Rainwater, school is about to start, right?"

"Yeah, almost there."

After hearing what he said, Ran Qiuye's mood improved, and he brought up another matter:

"Yushui still has something to tell you. I've been too busy lately and can't take care of things at the factory..."

He Yuzhu kissed her cheek, interrupted her, and whispered:

"When the rains start and school starts, we will have less private time, so we have to cherish the present time."

Ran Qiuye's face suddenly turned red, her eyes flickered, and she shyly pushed him away, saying, "Today is the turn of 2, 4, and 6. You should go to Ezi's place..."

"Well, if you don't want to, forget it."

He Yuzhu sighed, let go of her with helplessness, and walked towards the door.

"Then I'll go."

In fact, what he said just now was just a polite remark. When he really saw that he was about to leave, Ran Qiuye suddenly felt very uncomfortable in his heart, with a mixture of sour and sweet feelings.

Without my daughter's company, it was difficult to get through the long night lying alone in bed.

With a creak, the door was closed.

A fresh breath came to my face.

Ran Qiuye's heart was filled with sweetness and warmth.

A long, long time later...

He Yuzhu's breathing slowly calmed down.

Ran Qiuye was so tired that she had no strength left. She hugged him lovingly and said softly, "You should go find Lou Xiaoe today. After all..."

Thinking that Nian Qiu is not around, it will be even more difficult to fall asleep this night.

Ran Qiuye knew this very well, and also understood that Lou Xiao'e also longed for companionship at this time.

"It's okay."

He Yuzhu gently stroked her back and soothed her tenderly:

"I've been with Lou Xiao'e and her daughter all day. It's already so late. It doesn't matter if I don't go, right? They won't mind if I don't go once in a while."

"But that won't do."

Ran Qiuye pushed him and said embarrassedly: "Please leave quickly. I am very tired and want to rest. You are here and I can't sleep well at all."

When you need him, he is a good friend; when you don’t need him, you find him annoying, as if you have become a tool.

He Yuzhu was a little angry. Since she found him annoying, let her continue to feel this "annoyance".

Standing in the yard in the dead of night and watching Ran Qiuye closing the door and turning off the lights, He Yuzhu felt very powerless: It is good for a couple to live in peace, but it is too "harmonious". Even the occasional desire to be selfish cannot be realized.

It's almost eleven o'clock.

As He Yuzhu walked out, he kept wondering when he could sleep in the same bed with her...

There were no trams at this time, so I had to walk to the hotel, which was fortunately not too far away.

The streets are very quiet.

He Yuzhu walked for a while and couldn't help but stop. Under the familiar street light, he saw a familiar figure. Qin Huairu stood there, and he didn't know how long she had been waiting.

He Yuzhu looked at her quietly, not knowing what to say for a moment.

When she saw his eyes, Qin Huairu was no longer so nervous, and her originally depressed mood became cheerful. She ran over and hugged him tightly.

He Yuzhu's body stiffened slightly, and he patted her back gently, sighed and said:

"Didn't I tell you to go home first? What are you waiting for here?"

She cried for a long time in the office before.

He Yuzhu comforted her for a long time before letting her go back, and he also returned to the courtyard.

"I still have to go to the hospital to take care of people."

Qin Huairu raised her head, her pretty face slightly flushed, and looked at him boldly.

"I knew you would come out, so I'll wait for you here."

He Yuzhu was speechless for a moment.

He turned his gaze towards the empty street and reminded softly:

"Don't wait like this any longer. Even I don't know when it will come out."

Qin Huairu bit her lips lightly, held his hand tighter, and asked expectantly:

"Are you going back to work in the canteen of the steel mill?"

He Yuzhu did not answer this question, but said calmly:

"Let me accompany you to the hospital. Don't wait any longer."

Qin Huairu lowered her head with mixed feelings, but held his hand even tighter.

The street was quiet and deserted, and the two shadows gradually went away.

The hospital was actually quite close and we got there quickly.

Qin Huairu was reluctant to let go. She looked up and then quickly lowered her head, and asked in a trembling voice, "It's so scary inside the hospital. Can you accompany me to the ward?"

He Yuzhu looked at her hesitantly for a while, then took her hand and led her in another direction.

Seeing this scene, Qin Huairu's heart was filled with tenderness.

The next morning, as usual, He Yuzhu went home for breakfast before going to the steel mill.

I met Yu Haitang when I passed by the factory gate, and then went to the parking lot.

Yu Li was already waiting in the car.

This time, He Yuzhu did not drive but sat in the passenger seat.

When she saw him, Yu Li's eyes were full of tenderness. After looking around and making sure it was safe, she immediately threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly.

He Yuzhu gently stroked her hair.

Not long after, Yu Haitang came over.

After the two of them sat down, the car started slowly.

Spring has arrived.

But the weather is still a bit cool.

Yu Haitang was wearing a thin suit and a white shirt, looking very thin.

Compared to how cold it is outside.

Yu Haitang felt even colder in her heart.

She missed him very much after not seeing him for such a long time.

But the person she loved so much never even glanced at her.

Even if I don't have any special requirements, I just hope to be noticed occasionally.

At this moment, Yu Haitang felt lost and sad, and had the urge to rush up and ask directly: Is she really so insignificant to Yu Zhu? Why doesn't she even want to look at him? However, what can she change by asking?

Think of this.

Yu Haitang smiled helplessly and bitterly, and the pain in her heart became even stronger...

The car arrived at the instant noodle factory.

He Yuzhu got out of the car and walked in front.

Yu Li followed him.

After watching the two people enter the elevator, Yu Haitang chose to take the stairs to the second floor.

In the broadcasting room,

You Fengxia had arrived early and cleaned the office spotlessly.

Hot water is also ready in the cup on the table.

Yu Haitang had long been accustomed to her attentiveness and did not take it to heart.

Sitting at her desk, she sighed, looking a little confused.

I was thinking about that person in my heart, but there was no way to get close to him.

"Sister Haitang, what happened?"

You Fengxia noticed her strangeness and asked, "Did you encounter any troubles?"

"nothing."

Yu Haitang shook her head, hesitated for a moment and said: "Fengxia, if you like someone, what do you think you should do?"

“I don’t understand love.”

A blush appeared on You Fengxia's face.

"But, I think if you have feelings for someone, just tell him directly. There's a saying that goes, when a man pursues a woman, it's like climbing a mountain, it all depends on whether the woman is willing or not; but when a woman pursues a man, it's like breaking through a layer of paper, which is much easier. Especially when a girl is good in all aspects, boys usually won't refuse her."

Yu Haitang sighed.

That’s true, but what if the other person is already married?

It's not that I haven't thought about taking the initiative and dressing myself up beautifully to get closer to him, but all I got in return was indifference.

“It’s easy to say, but what if the other person simply ignores you or refuses?”

"This... no way."

You Fengxia looked at her and said, "Sister Haitang, your appearance and work are both excellent, how could any man not like you? If so, that man must be blind."

Yu Haitang said helplessly:

"Don't think too much about it. It's not about me. It's about a friend of mine."

"You are right. My friend is indeed very pretty and very popular in the factory. But now she has encountered a problem. She took the initiative to express her affection to another person, but was ignored by that person."

"She came to me for advice a few days ago. I don't have much experience, but she's a good friend, so I decided to lend a hand."

"Fengxia, how do you think you can attract the attention of a man who doesn't understand romance and is indifferent to suitors?"

You Fengxia thought to herself: The friend you are talking about is probably you...
