Siheyuan: I am different He Yuzhu

Stimulated by the good wine promised by He Yuzhu, the members of the Maoxiong Technical Guidance Group were all excited. The workers of the Red Star Steel Mill were infected by the enthusiasm of the Maoxiong technicians and were very motivated to learn the knowledge taught by the Maoxiong technicians. The changes in the Maoxiong Technical Guidance Group and the workers soon attracted the attention of the leaders of the Red Star Steel Mill. After understanding the cause of the incident, Secretary Wang instructed: "Xiao He, this method is very good, but the money for sending the Maoxiong Technical Guidance Group wine cannot be paid by Xiao He himself. Someone from the financial department should take the time to find Xiao He and find out how much Xiao He spent on the wine and reimburse him."

He Yuzhu, who was in the cafeteria office, didn't know Secretary Wang's instructions yet. When Cui, the cashier from the Finance Department, came to the cafeteria office to find him, He Yuzhu smiled enthusiastically and said, "Sister Cui, what brings you to our cafeteria?"

Sister Cui smiled and said, "Director He, you are joking. Secretary Wang knows that you want to give wine to Big Brother Maoxiong Technical Guidance Group. Secretary Wang instructed our Finance Department that the money should be paid by the factory and not by you. I am following Secretary Wang's instructions to find out how much you spent on the wine so that I can reimburse you later."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Sister Cui, this is not appropriate. The wine I gave to Big Brother Mao Xiong's Technical Guidance Group was bought by my cousin many years ago. I didn't have any receipts when I bought it. What should I do? Or should we just forget it?"

After listening to what happened, Sister Cui patiently explained to He Yuzhu: "Director He, don't worry about this. As long as you tell us the price you bought it at, the leaders of the factory are all aware of this matter. When the time comes, our Finance Department will take care of the bills. We will take care of it. You don't have to worry about the bills."

After hearing this, He Yuzhu stopped worrying about the bills and said directly: "I told Ivanov at the time that I would give a jar of liquor to each member of the Big Brother Mao Bear Technical Guidance Group. The Big Brother Mao Bear Technical Guidance Group has a total of 25 technicians. Each jar contains 2 kilograms of liquor. When I bought the liquor, I spent 2 cents per kilogram, and I spent 5 cents on the jar."

Sister Cui listened carefully to what He Yuzhu said, and said with a smile: "Director He, you bought this wine at a really cheap price. Two jars are not even as much as a glass bottle of Fenjiu on the market!"

He Yuzhu said with a smile: "At that time, I asked my cousin to find a winemaking workshop in Niulanshan to buy it directly. How can it be compared with the Fenjiu drunk at the state banquet?"

"Then you go ahead and take care of Director He. I have understood everything. The total amount that will be reimbursed to you is 20 yuan. After the formalities are completed and the leaders have signed, I will deliver it to you personally." Sister Cui said with a smile.

"How can I let Sister Cui make this trip in person? When I go to the office building, I will go to your Finance Department to pick it up from you." He Yuzhu said hurriedly.

"Okay, I won't be polite with you, Director He. I'll go back first and won't keep you any longer."

After He Yuzhu sent Sister Cui out of the cafeteria, he turned back to his office. Not long after he sat in the office, the phone on his desk rang. He Yuzhu picked up the phone and said, "Hello, this is the cafeteria office of the steel mill. Who are you?"

After hearing He Yuzhu's voice, Lou Xiao'e on the other end of the phone said excitedly, "Brother He, do you still remember me? I'm Xiao'e."

He Yuzhu laughed: "Hello Xiao'e, how could I not remember you? What's the matter with you calling me?"

Lou Xiao'e mustered up the courage to say, "Brother He, are you free this weekend? I want to go to your house to visit you." After saying that, Lou Xiao'e suddenly became nervous, fearing that He Yuzhu would refuse her and would not agree to her going to his house to visit He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu answered very readily: "Okay, no problem. Didn't I say it before? You are welcome to visit my home, but we have to make it clear in advance that you can visit my home, but you can't bring gifts."

When Lou Xiao'e heard that He Yuzhu agreed to let her visit He Yuzhu's home, she immediately said happily, "Okay, Brother He, I'll remember that. I promise not to bring any gifts. I'll go empty-handed. Goodbye, Brother He."

"Goodbye, Xiao'e." He Yuzhu hung up the phone. After Lou Xiao'e put down the phone, she could no longer contain her joy and jumped upstairs to her room. As she walked, she thought about what clothes she should wear to meet Brother He.

Lou Xiao'e, who was so absorbed in thinking about what clothes to wear when meeting He Yuzhu, didn't realize that her every move was seen clearly by her mother Tan Yali who was hiding in the dark. Tan Yali looked at her daughter and wondered why she didn't understand. After so many days, Lou Xiao'e must have liked He Yuzhu more and more, so she finally couldn't help but call He Yuzhu. It was estimated that it wouldn't be long before her husband would be ready to receive He Yuzhu's proposal.

After He Yuzhu put down the phone, he did not think much but continued to work. After finishing the work at hand, He Yuzhu calmed down and realized that something was wrong. Did Lou Xiaoe have a crush on him? No, it was impossible. After all, he and Lou Xiaoe had only met once. He should have come to express his gratitude. After all, her family was rich. If he did not express his gratitude after saving her, he would feel bad. Unconsciously, He Yuzhu's mind appeared the appearance of Lou Xiaoe. It's true that Lou Xiaoe was pretty.

After a while, Ivanov came to the cafeteria again to chat with He Yuzhu. As the two got to know each other, He Yuzhu gradually became good friends with Ivanov who could talk about anything.

In a blink of an eye, it was the weekend when He Yuzhu was resting. The 11-year-old He Yushui no longer liked to pester his big brother He Yuzhu like before. Instead, he preferred to play with his friends nearby on weekends. After breakfast, He Yushui said hello to He Yuzhu: "Big brother, I'm going out to play." After that, He Yushui hurried out. He Yuzhu started to do housework at home alone. After He Yuzhu finished his housework, He Yuzhu picked up a book and lay on the recliner to read.

Lou Xiao'e put on her favorite dress at home, put on some light makeup, and said to her father and mother who were sitting in the living room, "Dad, Mom, I'm going out to play with my classmates. I may not be back for lunch." After that, Lou Xiao'e hurried out without looking back.

After Lou Xiao'e left, Tan Yali looked at Lou Bancheng, who looked unhappy, and said, "Who has made you unhappy again?"

Lou Bancheng said unhappily, "Do you know what Xiao'e is going out for? This is the first time I've seen Xiao'e go out in such a hurry since she was born."

Tan Yali smiled and said, "Didn't Xiao'e say she was going to play with her classmates?"

Lou Bancheng said disdainfully: "Do you really think I'm a fool? Xiao'e looks like she's going out to play with her classmates. I think she's going to look for He Yuzhu!"

Tan Yali said jokingly: "You already know everything, why are you asking so many questions, are you jealous?"

Lou Xiao'e rode her bicycle towards He Yuzhu's house. Although the sun was strong and the wind was hot, Lou Xiao'e felt that the wind was sweet. After arriving at Nanluoguxiang, Lou Xiao'e asked someone about the specific location of No. 95 Siheyuan where He Yuzhu lived. When she heard that it was not far from No. 95 Siheyuan, Lou Xiao'e pushed her bicycle and walked while carefully observing the house numbers on both sides of the road.

After patiently searching, Lou Xiao'e finally saw the house number of Courtyard No. 95. After seeing the house number, Lou Xiao'e excitedly pushed her bicycle into the courtyard. As soon as she entered the gate, she was stopped by the three aunts in the front yard. The three aunts looked at Lou Xiao'e vigilantly and asked, "Little girl, who are you looking for?" After that, she looked up and down at Lou Xiao'e's clothes.

"Hello, Auntie, I'm looking for He Yuzhu. Does he live in this yard?" Lou Xiao'e said very kindly.

After hearing what Lou Xiao'e said, the third aunt immediately let down her guard and said with a smile: "Look for Zhuzi. He lives in our yard. He lives in the middle yard. Go in and find him."

"Thank you then." After saying that, Lou Xiao'e pushed her bicycle and walked towards the central courtyard.

The third aunt looked at Lou Xiao'e's back and couldn't help wondering why this girl was looking for He Yuzhu. Seeing that this girl was pushing a bicycle, her family must be well-off. She had never seen the fabric of the skirt she was wearing. Thinking of He Yuzhu's age, was she looking for He Yuzhu for a blind date? But why was there no matchmaker for the blind date? However, He Yuzhu seemed to be old enough to get married, but no one was looking for a matchmaker for him. It would not work without an elder in the family.

Lou Xiao'e pushed her bicycle to the middle courtyard. Jia Zhang, who was walking her grandson in the courtyard, looked at Lou Xiao'e pushing her bicycle and asked angrily, "Little girl, be careful when you push your bicycle. Don't hit my grandson."

Lou Xiao'e looked at Jia Zhang, who had a bad face, and said, "Auntie, I'm looking for He Yuzhu. Where is He Yuzhu's home?"

When Jia Zhang heard that the girl dressed so fashionably was looking for He Yuzhu, her face became even worse and she said impatiently, "Look, the house in the middle is He Yuzhu's home. Banggeng, let's go home with grandma." After saying that, Jia Zhang picked up Banggeng who was running and playing on the ground and turned around to walk home.

Lou Xiao'e, who was anxious to see He Yuzhu, didn't care about Jia Zhang's expression. She pushed her bicycle to the door of He Yuzhu's house and called out to the house affectionately, "Brother He, are you home?"

When Jia Zhang heard Lou Xiao'e affectionately call He Yuzhu "Big Brother He", she couldn't help but mutter in a low voice: "Whose little girl is so shameless that she calls a man "Big Brother" for the first time she comes to the door."

He Yuzhu, who was reading a book in the house, heard someone calling him outside. He quickly got up from the recliner and walked out of the room. He saw Lou Xiao'e pushing a bicycle and standing at the door of his house. He Yuzhu hurriedly said kindly: "Xiao'e, you're here." After that, He Yuzhu helped put Lou Xiao'e's bicycle on the steps under the eaves, and then took Lou Xiao'e into the house.

After Lou Xiao'e followed He Yuzhu into the house, she looked around curiously. She saw an eight-person table in the middle of the room and a very delicate reclining chair not far away. Looking at the simple but very clean and tidy main room, Lou Xiao'e said sincerely, "Brother He, is this the house you usually live in? You tidy it up really well."

He Yuzhu chuckled, "No, I'm a grown man, I'm just tidying up. There aren't that many things at home, so it looks simple. Xiao'e, please sit down. I'll go get you something to drink. By the way, do you want tea or the fruit vinegar I made?"

When Lou Xiao'e heard this, she quickly said, "I haven't drunk fruit vinegar yet. Since it's made by you, Brother He, I'll drink it."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Then wait here for a moment, I'll go to the kitchen and make you a cup."

After a while, He Yuzhu returned to the living room with a glass of fruit vinegar. He Yuzhu handed the fruit vinegar to Lou Xiaoe and said, "Try it and see if it suits your taste."

Lou Xiao'e took the fruit vinegar handed over by He Yuzhu, smelled the fruity aroma in the cup, put it to her lips and took a sip. When the fruit vinegar entered her mouth, Lou Xiao'e's eyes lit up instantly. The sour and sweet taste was very comfortable to drink. Then Lou Xiao'e took another big sip. After swallowing a big sip, Lou Xiao'e remembered that He Yuzhu was watching her. She blushed and said, "Brother He, the fruit vinegar you made is so delicious that I couldn't help it."

He Yuzhu looked at Lou Xiaoe's shy expression, and couldn't help but feel moved. He quickly said, "It's okay, as long as you like it."

After He Yuzhu sat and talked with Lou Xiao'e for a while, He Yuzhu glanced at the clock in the room and said, "Xiao'e, why don't we go out for a walk? There are quite a lot of residents in the yard where I live. It's not appropriate for a girl like you to stay in my house for a long time."
