Siheyuan: The rise and fall of the He family is our responsibility

The two spent a pleasant morning in the suburbs. When they returned to the courtyard, everyone was busy preparing dinner. Aunt Zhang greeted them warmly: "Xiao He, Xiao Li, you are back. Let's eat hot pot together today!"

He Yuzhu and Li Yue smiled and responded, "Okay, we'll help too."

At dinner, the neighbors in the courtyard sat together, and the steaming hot pot made everyone feel warm. He Yuzhu and Li Yue looked at all this, their hearts filled with happiness and satisfaction. Li Yue whispered: "Brother Zhu, with you and everyone here, life is so wonderful."

He Yuzhu smiled and nodded: "Yueyue, our lives will get better and better. With you, everything will become better."

The days continued to flow in peace, and He Yuzhu and Li Yue's life was still happy. During their days in the courtyard, they not only enjoyed each other's company, but also shared the bits and pieces of life with their neighbors, feeling the warmth and beauty of the courtyard.

One weekend afternoon, Li Yue was watering the flowers in the yard when He Yuzhu came back from outside with a beautiful gift box in his hand. He walked to Li Yue and said with a smile, "Yueyue, I bought you a small gift. See if you like it."

Li Yue took the gift box and opened it with surprise. Inside was an exquisite necklace. She said with emotion: "Brother Zhu, this is so beautiful, thank you."

He Yuzhu said gently: "As long as you like it, Yueyue, you are the most important person in my life, I am willing to do anything for you."

Li Yue smiled and nodded, gently hugging He Yuzhu: "Brother Zhu, me too, my life has become better with you around."

At night, He Yuzhu and Li Yue sat in the yard, looking at the starry sky, their hearts filled with peace and satisfaction. Li Yue leaned on He Yuzhu's shoulder and whispered, "Brother Zhu, our life is getting better and better."

He Yuzhu looked at all this, his heart was filled with warmth and gratitude. He knew that it was with this care and support that life became so beautiful.

In life, He Yuzhu often returns to the old lady's home to spend some time with her. He knows that although the old lady is old, she still cares for him in her own unique way. Their friendship is very precious to He Yuzhu, and he deeply engraves this emotion in his heart.

Final Thoughts

Although He Yuzhu's life has settled down now, he has never forgotten the difficult times in the past. The help and care of the deaf old lady have become the most precious wealth in his life. Those experiences taught him to be grateful and made him understand how important warmth and kindness are in life. He Yuzhu sat by the stove, looking at the snow scene outside the window, his heart full of thoughts about the past. He felt a deep peace, which was brought by the difficult times he had experienced and the kindness of the deaf old lady. Although the road of life is still full of challenges, he knows that no matter how difficult the road ahead is, as long as there is warmth in his heart, he will be able to walk more firmly.

In the days that followed, in order to support himself and his sister, he set up stalls, picked up waste, and worked as a helper in a restaurant.

He Yuzhu and the Deaf Old Lady (Continued)

Difficult survival

With the help of the deaf old lady, He Yuzhu survived the cold winter. However, with the arrival of spring, the pressure of life still did not disappear. He knew that he had to find a stable job as soon as possible to support himself and his younger sister. His heart was full of worries about the future, but at the same time there was a strong motivation driving him to find a chance to survive.

The weather in early spring was a little chilly. A breeze blew through the streets, making He Yuzhu's clothes flutter. The street vendors began to get busy, and people selling fruits, vegetables and snacks came in an endless stream. He Yuzhu decided to look for opportunities from these small vendors. He hoped to find a stable income to support his life.

Stall experience

That morning, He Yuzhu came to the street early and found an empty stall. He looked at the vendors around him and felt a little nervous. He knew that whether the business of this stall could improve would directly affect his life. He quickly took out some of the money he had saved and bought a few bags of fresh fruits and vegetables. He planned to sell these foods at this stall, hoping to attract some customers.

"Boss, these fruits and vegetables are all fresh, come and have a look!" He Yuzhu stood behind the stall, trying to attract passers-by with a warm tone. Although his voice sounded a little tired, the sincerity and honesty in it could still touch people's hearts.

Soon, several customers stopped by and started to pick fruits and vegetables. He Yuzhu was busy packing and weighing them, while trying to maintain cordial communication with the customers. He would recommend some fresh fruits to the customers from time to time, trying to satisfy them.

"This apple is very sweet, try it." He handed an apple to a customer with a warm smile on his face.

The customer took a bite, nodded his head to show satisfaction, and then took out the money to pay. He Yuzhu took the money and said, "Thank you, welcome to come again next time."

Although the days of setting up a stall were hard, He Yuzhu gradually found confidence and a sense of stability in the process. His stall gradually won some regular customers and his business slowly improved. However, he clearly knew that setting up a stall was just a transitional stage and he needed to find a more stable job to better support his life.

The experience of picking up waste

In addition to setting up stalls, He Yuzhu also tried to make a living by picking up waste. At that time, many people in the city discarded old items on the streets or next to trash cans. He Yuzhu often picked up waste such as old newspapers, bottles and iron sheets in these places, and then sold them to waste recycling stations. He did this not only to make money, but also to save up the basic expenses needed for life.

One morning, He Yuzhu found a pile of discarded old furniture and appliances in a corner of the city. He carefully searched through the waste and found some recyclable metals and electrical components. He quickly sorted the waste, put it in a cloth bag, and carried it to a nearby waste recycling station.

"Boss, I just picked up these wastes. Can you tell me how much they are worth?" He Yuzhu poured the wastes in the bag onto the ground and asked the owner of the recycling station.

The boss was a middle-aged man wearing work clothes and looked a little tired. He looked at the scraps, nodded, and began to calculate the price. "The value of these scraps is not high, but I can give you some money. Do you think this is okay?"
