Siheyuan: I am different He Yuzhu

He Yuzhu stayed at Li Ze's house for about an hour. He Yuzhu said, "Brother Li, I just want to see you today and wish you a happy new year. I wish you good health and a happy family in the new year. I have been here for quite a while, and it is time for me to go back."

"Well, your wife is pregnant, so I won't keep you here for dinner. Come on, I'll see you off."

Li Ze sent He Yuzhu downstairs. When Li Miaomiao saw that He Yuzhu was about to leave, she quickly ran to He Yuzhu, held his hand and said, "Uncle He, why are you leaving so early? I want to eat the food you cooked for lunch!"

He Yuzhu squatted down, pinched Li Miaomiao's little face and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, Miaomiao, Uncle He has something to do at home, so Uncle He can't cook for you today. If you want to eat Uncle He's cooking, I'll cook for you next time Uncle He comes."

"Okay then, let's make a promise. Next time Uncle He comes to my house, you must make it for me." After saying that, Li Miaomiao stretched out his little finger. He Yuzhu smiled and stretched out his little finger to hook it with Li Miaomiao's little finger.

"Hang yourself with a hook, and it won't change for a hundred years."

"Uncle He, we have a promise. Next time you come to my house, if you don't cook for me, you will be a liar. My mother said that liars are puppies. Then you will be a puppy."

Miao Aihua couldn't help but burst out laughing after hearing what Li Miaomiao said.

"Okay, I'll remember to cook for you next time I come. I don't want to be a puppy. Miaomiao, goodbye; Brother Li, sister-in-law, I'm leaving now."

Li Ze's family sent He Yuzhu out the door, and only returned to the house after He Yuzhu disappeared. Miao Aihua said, "Hey, the dishes cooked by this little He are so delicious. Your daughter is always thinking about them. Your daughter is really a foodie."

Li Ze smiled and said, "It's not the revolutionary period now. The conditions are much better. Isn't it normal for children to eat something delicious? Besides, don't we both like to eat the food Xiao He cooks? Don't you think of a child as young as Miao Miao?"

"Yeah, how come Xiao He married the daughter of a capitalist? I was thinking of introducing Director Zhang's daughter to Xiao He, but Xiao He got married without any announcement. Getting married would be fine, but the key is that they didn't even inform us in advance, and they came to us afterwards. We didn't even get to drink Xiao He's wedding wine."

"You, Xiao He is now a leading cadre after all. He was right not to invite us. If we really went, it wouldn't necessarily be a good thing. Didn't Xiao He come to explain to you afterwards? There are many people in the courtyard where Xiao He lives, and many of them are his co-workers from the steel mill. How can you ask Xiao He to introduce us to others? Xiao He is so young that he became a leading cadre, and some people are jealous of him. If they knew about my relationship with Xiao He, it would be terrible. I guess rumors would be flying everywhere. But Xiao He obviously did well in that position with his own ability. Although I recommended him at the beginning, Xiao He's achievements later were all due to his own efforts. People's words are scary."

After hearing what Li Ze said, Miao Aihua couldn't help but sigh: "It's really not easy to be a leading cadre."

On New Year's Eve, He Yuzhu's family gathered around the table for a sumptuous dinner. Needless to say, all the dishes on the table were made by He Yuzhu. In order to thank He Yushui for her hard work in taking care of Lou Xiao'e, He Yuzhu specially made a dish of candied sweet potato. Originally, He Yuzhu planned to make candied apple, but apples were hard to buy, and He Yuzhu took a lot of effort to buy a few. After tasting it, He Yuzhu found that the taste of apples in this era was not as good as that of later generations, so he had to change to sweet potatoes, and leave the apples for Lou Xiao'e to eat for nutrition.

After finishing dinner, He Yushui leaned back in his chair, touched his stomach and said, "Brother, it's all because the food you cooked was so delicious. I ate too much."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Yushui, you are being a little unreasonable. Your elder brother advised you to eat, but it's a pity that you didn't listen to your elder brother's advice."

He Yushui blushed and said, "Humph, I'm afraid it will be wasted if I can't finish it. It won't taste good if it gets cold."

Lou Xiao'e looked at the funny brother and sister sitting aside and smiled silently.

"Brother, are we going out to play tomorrow?" After saying that, He Yushui glanced at Lou Xiaoe.

After hearing what He Yushui said, Lou Xiao'e hurriedly said, "Brother He, take Yushui out to play tomorrow. I have nothing to do at home alone."

"Let's go. Since we're going out to play, let's go as a family."

Lou Xiao'e explained anxiously: "But my belly is so big that it's inconvenient for me to walk, and there will be a lot of people on the street, and it will be troublesome if they run into me again, so I'd better not go."

He Yuzhu took Lou Xiao'e's hand and said, "Xiao'e, don't worry. I have thought of it all. Tomorrow morning I will go to my cousin's house and borrow his tricycle. I will ride the tricycle with you two. When we get to the place, let the rain run around and you just sit on the tricycle and don't get off. I will push you with the tricycle."

"Brother He, you are so nice to me." Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but say happily after hearing what He Yuzhu said. Since her belly became noticeably bigger in the fourth month of pregnancy, Lou Xiao'e has hardly gone out. Although she has a quiet personality, she has been feeling suffocated staying at home for so long. But there is no other way for the baby in her belly. When she heard He Yuzhu say that he could pull her on a three-wheeled cart, Lou Xiao'e was immediately filled with expectations.

"You are my wife, shouldn't I treat you well? Yu Shui, if you feel sleepy later, just go back to the house and sleep. I will sit with your sister-in-law for a while."

"Ah."

He Yuzhu stood up and looked at the firewood in the fireplace. Seeing that there was not enough firewood, he threw two pieces in.

The next morning, He Yuzhu got up and made breakfast, then went back to the room to call Lou Xiaoe and his sister to eat. He Yushui and Lou Xiaoe came to the kitchen in their new clothes, and the three of them had breakfast happily together.

During the meal, He Yuzhu took out two red envelopes from his pocket and handed them to Lou Xiaoe and He Yushui respectively. "Xiaoe, Yushui, this is the New Year's money I prepared for you."

Lou Xiao'e happily took the red envelope and said, "Brother He, you even prepared New Year's money for me. I thought I wouldn't get any after I got married."

He Yushui also happily accepted the red envelope from He Yuzhu and said, "Thank you, big pot." Because when he spoke, something in his mouth turned into big pot.

As soon as they finished their meal, He Yushui urged He Yuzhu to go out quickly, "Brother, hurry to your cousin's house. Don't be too late. If your cousin goes out and you can't borrow a tricycle, it will be troublesome."

He Yuzhu smiled and touched He Yushui's head, "Okay, okay, brother will go out right away." After that, He Yuzhu pushed his bicycle out the door.

He Yuzhu rode his bicycle to Cai Quanwu's home in Daqianmen with gifts. When he saw Cai Quanwu and Su Xiulian, He Yuzhu said, "Happy New Year, uncle and aunt."

Cai Quanwu asked, "Zhu Zi, Happy New Year to you too. By the way, why didn't you bring your sister Yu Shui with you? I have prepared some lucky money for her."

"Uncle, don't worry, you can't escape. I came here to borrow your tricycle. I will ride your tricycle back to bring back Yu Shui and my wife. By the way, do you want to use your tricycle today?"

"Just push the cart and ride. Today is the first day of the new year. I've been busy all year and I need to take a break. You know what's going on between me and your aunt. When the weather gets warmer, I'll take your aunt out for a walk."

"Okay, then I'll ride away and leave my bicycle to you." After saying that, He Yuzhu rode his three-wheeled tricycle towards his courtyard home in Nanluoguxiang.

He Yuzhu rode the tricycle back to the courtyard gate, but because there were steps at the gate, the tricycle could not enter the courtyard. He Yuzhu parked the tricycle at the courtyard gate and walked into the courtyard. As soon as he walked up the steps, he ran into Yan Bugui. He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Uncle, happy New Year, what are you doing out there?"

Yan Bugui said with a smile: "Zhu Zi, Happy New Year to you too, I'm going to the toilet."

"Then you should go quickly." After saying that, He Yuzhu moved aside and continued to walk towards the middle courtyard. After returning to the middle courtyard and entering the house, He Yuzhu said, "Xiao'e, Yushui, you two should pack up and get ready to go out."

"Okay, Brother He."

"Okay, big brother."

He Yuzhu went into the bedroom, picked up a quilt, picked up a sheet and walked out.

Seeing this, He Yushui asked curiously, "Brother, why are you holding a quilt? Are you going to dry it in the sun? Aren't we going out to play?"

He Yuzhu smiled and explained, "Why should I dry the quilt? This is for spreading on the tricycle. If you don't spread something on it, it will be uncomfortable to sit on the tricycle for a long time. Xiao'e, I'll go out and spread the quilt on the tricycle first, and I'll come back to pick you up later. Yushui, have you packed? If you have packed, go out with big brother and watch the things on the tricycle."

"Okay." After saying that, He Yushui happily followed He Yuzhu out.

He Yuzhu spread the quilt on the tricycle. Yan Bugui came back from the toilet and saw He Yuzhu spreading the quilt on the tricycle. He asked curiously, "Zhuzi, where did you get a tricycle? Why are you spreading the quilt on it?"

"Uncle, I'm planning to take my wife and Yu Shui out for a walk. My wife can't walk easily, so I borrowed a tricycle from my cousin and will take them there. I'm worried that they'll feel uncomfortable if they sit for too long, so I thought of putting a blanket on them."

"You are so good to your wife, Zhuzi." After praising He Yuzhu, Yan Bugui turned around and walked into the yard.

After He Yuzhu made the bed, he returned to the middle courtyard and held Lou Xiao'e's arm as they walked toward the gate of the courtyard. Qin Huairu watched He Yuzhu carefully holding Lou Xiao'e's arm and couldn't help but envy how good He Yuzhu was to Lou Xiao'e.

He Yuzhu helped Lou Xiao'e to the tricycle. Lou Xiao'e looked at the tall tricycle, looked at He Yuzhu with an embarrassed face and whispered, "Brother He, I can't get on."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm here, I'll carry you up." After that, He Yuzhu picked up Lou Xiao'e and gently placed her on the three-wheeled cart.

He Yushui saw this and hurriedly said, "Brother, you have to carry me up, I can't climb up either."

He Yuzhu smiled and carried He Yushui onto the tricycle. After He Yushui sat on the tricycle, he looked at Lou Xiaoe with a smug look on his face. Lou Xiaoe couldn't help laughing when she saw He Yushui's smug look on his face.

He Yuzhu rode a tricycle with Lou Xiaoe and He Yushui to visit the home of his master Wu Baotian. After paying New Year's greetings to his master Wu Baotian's wife Liu E, He Yuzhu brought Lou Xiaoe and He Yushui to his cousin Cai Quanwu's home, where they also did not stay for too long and simply paid New Year's greetings. Then they hurried to the home of their master Guan Xuezong, and after paying New Year's greetings to their master Guan Xuezong, He Yuzhu brought Lou Xiaoe and He Yushui to walk around Wangfujing.

When they arrived near Wangfujing, He Yuzhu stopped the tricycle and He Yushui jumped off the tricycle like a happy rabbit. "Sister-in-law, I want to eat candied haws, do you want some?"

He Yuzhu hurriedly said, "Eat it yourself. Your sister-in-law is pregnant and can't eat hawthorn."

He Yushui ran directly to the person carrying the candied haws sticks, bought a string of candied haws and started eating. After getting off the tricycle, He Yushui was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins and did not rest for a moment. He Yuzhu could only push the tricycle and follow behind his sister He Yushui, and they kept strolling until noon.

He Yuzhu stopped his sister He Yushui who had been running all morning and said, "Yushui, we won't go back for lunch. What do you want to eat?"

He Yushui thought about it and really didn't know what to eat. After all, she had been eating non-stop that morning. She could only turn around and look at Lou Xiao'e and said, "Sister-in-law, what do you want to eat? I'm not very hungry, just tell me."

Lou Xiao'e thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to Bianyifang to eat roast duck."
