Siheyuan: General He Yuzhu, loyal to his country

He Yuzhu inserted the key given to him by Chen Banshan into the keyhole, turned it gently, and the lock opened.

Push the door open and enter.

This single-family courtyard has been sealed for a long time, so the yard is full of fallen leaves and dust, but it is old but not dirty. He Yuzhu can see the wooden door covering the cellar in the yard. There is also a stone mill under a small wooden shed. It can be imagined that ten years ago, there were mules or donkeys pulling the stone mill to grind beans. The doors and windows are old. In the late Qing Dynasty, some of the bricks and tiles on the eaves were covered with moss.

He Yuzhu was walking on a bluestone road.

Go to the main house.

There are also wing rooms and ear rooms.

The layout is very good.

The sun shines brightly in the yard.

It fell on He Yuzhu.

It makes people feel inexplicably peaceful.

Isn’t this the kind of small courtyard that He Yuzhu wants to own the most?

He Yuzhu entered the main house. There were only simple tables, chairs, benches, and bed boards inside. There was nothing else. It was obvious that everything had been moved away or confiscated.

But from now on, this courtyard house will belong to He Yuzhu.

"It's better not to tell Qingfang about the existence of this courtyard house for the time being. After I have decorated it completely, I will bring her here. She will definitely be very surprised." He Yuzhu touched his nose and said. He Yuzhu is a man who understands romance, but he is too busy with work on weekdays and doesn't have time for that.

Other women have.

He Yuzhu must make sure that Tang Qingfang has the same.

He only favors Tang Qingfang.

Make her happier and happier.

"Or... let Old Liu come out of the [Landscape Space] and decorate this courtyard house for me?" He Yuzhu thought for a while, then shook his head, denying his own idea. Old Liu, a servant, has no identity. If someone reports him, he might be arrested as a spy, causing unnecessary conflicts. So forget it.

"Then we can only find someone to do the renovation."

He Yuzhu said.

Who are you looking for?

Is a problem.

There is no such thing as a talent market in this era.

"correct."

"Looking for Li Yong."

"I haven't seen that guy for a long time. I don't know how he is doing at East Street Primary School. I asked him to help with the house renovation and I can give him some money. He won't accept the money for free."

He Yuzhu thought about it and found the most suitable candidate.

He Yuzhu sat on the steps.

Look at the grape trellis.

The mind is unusually peaceful.

About half an hour later, he got up and left.

He settled down here in the future.

As for the two apartments in the courtyard and the Jun family compound, He Yuzhu will make arrangements for them. He Yuzhu is not short of money anyway, so it is impossible for him to rent out the houses. If he has any friends, he can let them live there for free.

"Director He?"

When He Yuzhu walked out of the room, he met an acquaintance whom he had met once before. When she saw He Yuzhu, she immediately greeted him.

It was Chen Xueru, the proprietress of the Zhengyangmen Silk Shop.

"Boss Chen?"

He Yuzhu said.

When Chen Xueru saw He Yuzhu recognized her, she immediately smiled brightly: "Director He, you are very busy and hold a high position. I didn't expect that you still remember me after meeting me in the tavern that day. It's an honor."

He Yuzhu smiled casually: "I am just an ordinary person, how can I feel honored or not."

Chen Xueru looked at He Yuzhu.

His eyes were full of admiration.

Ever since she met He Yuzhu in the tavern that day, she couldn't get rid of the image of this man.

Chen Xueru knew that she was not very good at finding men.

But He Yuzhu...

She knew that this man was absolutely reliable.

"What are you doing?" Chen Xueru looked at He Yuzhu, then looked at the house that had been uninhabited for many years and had long been confiscated.

"This house will be mine from now on."

“I will live here in the future.”

He Yuzhu said.

"We will be neighbors from now on." He Yuzhu stretched out his hand to shake hands with Chen Xueru.

Chen Xueru quickly shook it.

He Yuzhu quickly let go of Chen Xueru politely.

However, Chen Xueru is completely different.

He stood there stunned.

This man has big hands, so hot.

Full of masculinity.

As a result, Chen Xueru couldn't help but take a look at the hand she had shaken with He Yuzhu, feeling unsatisfied.

She suddenly realized that He Yuzhu was still watching her, and her face turned red.

"Boss Chen, don't you live in Zhengyangmen? Is the back also your home?" He Yuzhu asked Chen Xueru.

"To be honest, the front and backyard of my silk shop were rented to me by the government. They are not my house. This is it." Chen Xueru pointed to a courtyard house next to He Yuzhu's house. Chen Xueru had gone through great pains to get this courtyard house back from her ex-husband. She had been divorced for several years. When they divorced, her ex-husband took almost half of her property, and the rest was not available. However, she had always held the title deed of the ancestral home in her hands, so even if the other party occupied it, it was hers. After years of hard work, she finally regained control of it.

The ancestral home originally belonged to her.

After experiencing two failed marriages, Chen Xueru realized that one should be cautious when getting married.

But Chen Xueru knew her own character and knew that she was not good at judging men. The men she thought were particularly good would change their personalities drastically after marriage, unlike He Yuzhu, who was consistent in his words and deeds and looked very reliable at first glance.

"I see." He Yuzhu nodded.

The two were silent for a moment, feeling a little awkward.

Chen Xueru wanted to stay with He Yuzhu for a while, fearing that He Yuzhu would leave immediately if the atmosphere cooled, so she said, "Do you still remember Xu Huizhen, the proprietress of the tavern? Her house is also nearby. How about I take you to her house to get to know her? She must be there at this time."

"Xu Huizhen's family also has a second house." He Yuzhu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. They were really rich. He remembered clearly that Xu Huizhen sold wine in the front yard and lived in the back yard.

"Yes, Xu Huizhen also has a second property. One is for business, and this house is where he makes wine. She comes here every day and sees me dressed so beautifully. In fact, Xu Huizhen is better off than me. Also, don't worry, the wine he makes is kept very tightly sealed, and the smell of the wine will not disturb other people's normal lives, and it won't leak out at all."

Chen Xueru explained to He Yuzhu again.

He Yuzhu nodded lightly.

Xu Huizhen and Chen Xueru are really enemies. Sometimes they help each other out, and sometimes they fight to the death.

The truth that women's hearts are as deep as the sea is fully demonstrated in these two people.

Follow Chen Xueru to Xu Huizhen's house.

The door was not closed, so I went straight in.

"Hey."

"Chen Xueru, what are you doing here? Are you here to learn about our family's secret recipe for making wine? No way. Come on, go on."

When Xu Huizhen saw Chen Xueru, she pushed her out.

However, Xu Huizhen was stunned when she saw He Yuzhu.

She was impressed by the man.

It actually appears here.

In fact, Xu Huizhen had thought about it before, maybe just marry Waibo directly, but after meeting He Yuzhu, influenced by him, Xu Huizhen changed her mind. She felt that she could not settle for less. He Yuzhu had carved out a new world for himself with his own hands, and she, as a woman, could do the same. She did not want to marry a man who was just so-so. She wanted a man who was either good to her or her ideal type. She would only like a dragon among men like He Yuzhu.

"Director He, come in quickly. Would you like to try our wine, which is a century-old brew?"

Xu Huizhen welcomed He Yuzhu politely, and treated He Yuzhu in a completely different way from how she treated Chen Xueru.

Chen Xueru rolled her eyes.
