Siheyuan: Smiling at the Birds

On his way back to the courtyard, Li Tianyou thought about everything that had happened today and quickly went through it in his mind to see if there was anything wrong.

After finding that there were no mistakes, Li Tianyou smiled. Today, not only did he solve the problem of antiques, but he also solved the problem of supplies.

I can also go to Hong Kong to see the grandfather whom I have never met.

Zhang Fuwang looked at Li Tianyou and said, "Tianyou, you won't blame me today, will you?"

Li Tianyou knew in his heart that Zhang Fuwang had indeed sold himself out today, but Li Tianyou did not blame Zhang Fuwang. After all, Zhang Fuwang did it for the country. People at that time were extremely loyal to the country, and it was ingrained in their bones.

Li Tianyou smiled and said, "Uncle, what are you talking about? How can I blame you? I know you are doing this for the country, and I also want to do something for the country.

So, uncle, I know how you feel, and I can't blame you for anything. After all, you are my closest person."

Zhang Fuwang also had tears in his eyes after hearing what Li Tianyou said, but he still laughed and scolded: "You little bastard, you are becoming more and more slick."

Gao Meiyu also looked at Li Tianyou, feeling distressed. Her brother Tianyou was only 22 years old, and he was already going to run supplies for the country and collect antiques.

You know, there are countless young people of the same age as Li Tianyou who are thinking about how to take pictures of their wives.

But my brother Tianyou is already doing his best for the country.

Gao Meiyu felt a little sorry for Li Tianyou and held Li Tianyou's hand tightly.

Li Tianyou also felt Gao Meiyu holding his hand tightly. He looked at Gao Meiyu, gave her a reassuring look, and patted her hand gently.

When the car stopped at the gate of No. 95 Siheyuan, Zhang Fuwang said, "Tianyou, pack up. I'll ask Secretary Liu to pick you up tomorrow."

Li Tianyou nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for Secretary Liu at home."

Zhang Fuwang was worried and said a few more words to Li Tianyou before leaving reluctantly.

Li Tianyou and Gao Meiyu returned to the East Courtyard. Gao Meiyu looked at Li Tianyou with eyes full of reluctance.

Gao Meiyu said softly: "Brother Tianyou, how many days will you be in Hong Kong?"

Li Tianyou pinched Gao Meiyu's nose and said, "About a week at most! After all, there are still many things to do."

Gao Meiyu pouted and hugged Li Tianyou and said, "It'll take a week? Seven days is so long."

Li Tianyou looked at Gao Meiyu and said with a smile: "Why? Are you scared in the East Courtyard?"

Gao Meiyu nodded with some embarrassment on her face when she heard this.

Li Tianyou smiled and said: "Then I'll let Qin Huairu accompany you?"

When Gao Meiyu heard Li Tianyou ask Qin Huairu to accompany him, she rolled her eyes.

She left Li Tianyou's arms, sat on the bed and said, "Brother Tianyou, your intentions are not pure."

Li Tianyou twitched his lips and said, "Then who do you want to accompany you?"

Gao Meiyu thought about it and there was really no other good candidate. After all, she was not familiar with other people in the courtyard.

Only Qin Huairu is suitable. She is a widow. Although she has children at home, she can bring her younger daughter here to accompany him. The other two children are grown up and can stay at home.

Gao Meiyu said reluctantly: "Then you can talk to Qin Huairu tomorrow. Although I know your intentions are not pure, there is no other good way."

Li Tianyou picked up Gao Meiyu and said, "I'm going to Hong Kong tomorrow, feed me tonight." Then he carried Gao Meiyu to the bathroom.

Gao Meiyu also exclaimed and was made to blush by Li Tianyou.

The next morning.

Li Tianyou came to the steel mill and found Secretary Yin. He said to Secretary Yin: "Secretary Yin, I need a week's leave."

Secretary Yin said, "I see, Tianyou. Minister Zhang from the General Logistics Department called me last night. Although he didn't tell me why you asked for leave, I know you must have something important to do. Tianyou, just go get busy!"

After listening to Secretary Yin's words, Li Tianyou felt relieved. He felt very reassured that his Uncle Zhang could do things.

Li Tianyou felt comfortable, but Secretary Yin was terrified.

After getting a satisfactory answer, Li Tianyou left Secretary Yin’s office and returned to his own office.

After Li Tianyou arrived at the office, Qin Huairu was delighted and followed him.

Li Tianyou looked at Qin Huairu, who was smiling like a flower, and said with a smile: "Sister Qin, why are you here?"

Qin Huairu smiled and said, "Fang Xinlan has gone out to do some work and will not be back until the afternoon." She blinked as she spoke.

Li Tianyou also smiled, thinking that he would be away for a week as well, so he might as well feed Qin Huairu this time!

So a big battle broke out in Li Tianyou's office.

One hour, two hours, three hours later.

Li Tianyou looked at the time. It was already 11 o'clock in the morning and it was time for him to go back to the courtyard.

Looking at Qin Huairu who was already asleep, Li Tianyou thought to himself, I made you jump all the time, why don’t you stop now?

Li Tianyou poured Qin Huairu a cup of spiritual spring water, woke her up and asked her to drink it.

Looking at Qin Huairu who had recovered a little, Li Tianyou smiled and said, "You should take a rest. I have to go back early today."

Qin Huairu heard this and said, "What do you have to do today?"

Li Tianyou slapped his head and said, "I forgot. You should stay in the East Courtyard tonight and accompany Yu'er. The East Courtyard is too big and she is scared to be alone."

Qin Huairu frowned after hearing what Li Tianyou said and asked, "What do you mean, why is your wife alone?"

Li Tianyou touched Qin Huairu's head and said, "I have to go out for a week, so you go to the East Courtyard to accompany Yu'er. Ask Yu'er what the matter is."

Qin Huairu nodded quickly after hearing this. Wasn't it what she had been dreaming of to go to the East Courtyard?

Why are you asking now? Gao Meiyu will tell you in the evening.

Looking at the thoughtful Qin Huairu, Li Tianyou knew that Qin Huairu was probably up to some tricks again, but he didn't care. Yu'er is not a naive person, so don't regret it if you plot against her.

Li Tianyou returned to the courtyard, and just as he entered the courtyard, Secretary Liu came.

Li Tianyou packed up simply and left in the car with Secretary Liu.

Everyone in the courtyard started talking about it.

I don’t understand what Li Tianyou is doing and why he is in such a hurry. The car came just as I arrived.

In the afternoon, the steel mill went off work.

After Qin Huairu got home, she prepared dinner for Banggeng and the others, and ran to the East Courtyard without even bothering to eat.

Bang, bang, bang

Qin Huairu knocked on the door.

Gao Meiyu opened the door and said with a smile: "Sister, come in!"

Qin Huairu was stunned when she heard this, but she still walked into the house.

Gao Meiyu looked at the stunned Qin Huairu and said with a smile: "Sit down, don't just stand there."

Qin Huairu sat on the stool very quietly and obediently.

Gao Meiyu smiled and said, "Sister, there is no need to do this. I am not bullying you. Besides, Brother Tianyou is not here, so you don't have to do this."

Qin Huairu sighed inwardly, this Gao Meiyu is also a smart person. Although she is only 19 years old, she doesn't look like one at all.

Qin Huairu said: "What should I call you?"

Gao Meiyu smiled and said, "Call me Xiaoyu."

Qin Huairu nodded and said, "Can I ask where Section Chief Li went?"

Gao Meiyu did not answer but asked: "Have you always called Brother Tianyou Section Chief Li?"

Qin Huairu nodded and said, "Yes, he said that this would not go wrong, and he always called me Sister Qin."

Gao Meiyu nodded and said to herself: "You guys are really careful."

Qin Huairu smiled and said, "Didn't you find out after all?"

Gao Meiyu shook her head and said, "I was able to find out because of Brother Tianyou's guilt towards me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have found out."

Qin Huairu was curious and asked, "Did you forgive him and me so easily?"

Gao Meiyu said, "It's not about forgiveness, but I have no choice. I don't want to embarrass Brother Tianyou."

Qin Huairu nodded and said, "I am just like you. I don't want to embarrass him, so since that night, he has been avoiding me and rejecting me."

Gao Meiyu nodded and said, "Didn't he accept you in the end?"

Qin Huairu shook her head and said, "He doesn't like me, let alone love me."

Gao Meiyu narrowed her eyes and said, "Oh, then why did I accept you anyway?"

Qin Huairu smiled and said: "Responsibility, otherwise I can't think of any other reason."

Gao Meiyu seemed to have thought of something and sighed: "Brother Tianyou is a good man."

Qin Huairu said: "But he still belongs to you, I am just the one he pities."

Gao Meiyu sneered and snorted: "Hmph, don't pretend to be weak and useless in front of me. Put away your tricks. I believe Brother Tianyou doesn't like it either."

Qin Huairu sighed in her heart. No wonder Li Tianyou was so confident in letting her come to the East Courtyard. It turned out that this little girl was also a smart person.

Qin Huairu said: "He asked me to accompany you."

Gao Meiyu curled her lips and said, "It's fake to accompany me. His purpose is not pure and his motive is evil. Don't say you don't know his intentions."

Qin Huairu smiled, looked at Gao Meiyu and said, "Then you still agree."

Gao Meiyu looked at Qin Huairu and smiled: "Then what do you think I should do?"

Qin Huairu said: "You are so naughty and cute, and you look shy. Are you tired of pretending?"

Gao Meiyu smiled, but her canine teeth were not cute at all, and looked a little chilly. She looked at Qin Huairu and said, "In fact, Tianyou has always known what kind of people you and I are, but he didn't point it out, and instead enjoyed it."

Qin Huairu nodded and said, "I think so too, but I don't understand why. What is his intention?"

Gao Meiyu looked at Qin Huairu with a playful look in her eyes, which made Qin Huairu feel uneasy.

Qin Huairu asked: "Did I say something wrong?"

Gao Meiyu smiled and said, "You are right. As for Brother Tianyou's purpose, it is very simple. He knows that we love him, so why should he change us?"

Qin Huairu was stunned when she heard this, then nodded and said: "Yes, he is too smart, you are right, we all love him, so it doesn't matter to him how we treat him."

Gao Meiyu said: "Brother Tianyou, it will take a week for you to come back from Hong Kong. You can stay in the East Courtyard for this week! If you are worried about your child, you can bring your little daughter here."

Although Qin Huairu was curious, he resisted the urge to ask. He knew what Gao Meiyu wanted to tell him, so he didn't need to ask.

Qin Huairu shook her head and said, "No need. Banggeng and the other two are fine at home. I'll stay here with you."

Gao Meiyu smiled and said, "Let's call each other sisters in private."

Qin Huairu smiled and said, "Hello, sister. Sister Huairu will accompany you today."
