Siheyuan: Silly Pillar is Kind

Days flow slowly in the warmth of the courtyard, and everyone still remembers the bustle of the market. One afternoon, the sun shone through the gaps in the leaves into the yard, forming patches of light. Uncle Ma sat on a small bench, repairing an old piece of furniture, and said with emotion: "I had a great time going to the market last time. Life in this courtyard is getting more and more interesting." I happened to pass by, and when I heard this, I stopped and responded: "Uncle Ma, it's true. It feels great to go to the market together." At this time, Aunt Sun came over with a basin of freshly washed clothes and said: "That's right, there are so many things in this market and they are affordable. Let's go again next time we have a chance." Uncle Ma nodded, "Yes, let's go shopping again next time, maybe we can find more good things." As he was talking, several children started laughing and playing in the yard again. "Hey, you little guys, don't run so fast, be careful not to fall." Aunt Sun shouted hurriedly. A child stopped and said with a smile: "Auntie Sun, we won't fall. The market is so fun. When can we go again?" Uncle Ma smiled and touched the child's head, "Haha, do you want to go to the market so much? I'll take you there when I have the chance." The children jumped and jumped for joy when they heard it. I looked at their lively appearance and was filled with joy. "These children are so excited when they mention the market." Auntie Sun hung the clothes on the rope and said: "Children like to be lively. With them in our courtyard, there is a lot more life." "Yes, this courtyard is like a big family. Everyone cares about each other and takes care of each other." Uncle Ma sighed. After a few days, it started to drizzle. Everyone stayed in the house, doing their own things. I sat in front of the window, watching the raindrops hitting the stone road in the yard, and my thoughts drifted away. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. I opened the door and it turned out to be Grandma Li. "Children, there is nothing to do on this rainy day, let's chat." Grandma Li said with a smile. I quickly let Grandma Li in, "Okay, Grandma Li. Please sit down." After Grandma Li sat down, she looked at the rain outside the window and said, "This rain is quite poetic. Thinking back to the past, this courtyard has also experienced a lot of wind and rain." I nodded, "Yes, Grandma Li. But now everyone cherishes the life in this courtyard." "Yes, it's really rare that everyone gets along so well now." Grandma Li said with emotion. As she was talking, Grandpa Zhang also walked in. "What are you talking about? It's so lively." Grandma Li smiled and said, "We are talking about the days in this courtyard. Old Zhang, come and chat too." After Grandpa Zhang sat down, he said, "This courtyard is getting better and better now. We have experienced so much together, and our feelings are getting deeper and deeper." The three of us chatted for a long time, recalling the bits and pieces of the past, and looking forward to a better life in the future. After the rain stopped, everyone walked out of the house and came to the yard. The air was particularly fresh, and crystal water droplets were still hanging on the leaves. "When the rain stopped, the whole yard looked brand new." Sister Wang said while appreciating the scenery in the yard. Brother Zhao also nodded in agreement, "Yes, this courtyard after the rain has a unique flavor." Everyone chatted in the yard and shared their feelings on rainy days. The children played in the puddles on the side, and the laughter echoed throughout the courtyard. As time went by, life in the courtyard was still full of warmth and happiness. Everyone spent one beautiful day after another together, guarding this home full of love together. On a sunny morning, everyone decided to hold a small party in the yard together. Everyone brought their own food and placed it on the table in the yard. "Wow, so many delicious foods!" A child looked at the table full of food with bright eyes. "Haha, let's enjoy it together today." Uncle Liu said with a smile. Everyone sat together, tasting the food and chatting. "Life in this courtyard is really getting better and better." Aunt Zhou said with emotion. "Yes, everyone is like a family." Uncle Wu also nodded in agreement. The party was held in laughter and joy, and everyone's face was filled with happy smiles. In this reborn courtyard, love and warmth will never be absent.

After the party, the courtyard returned to its former tranquility, but this tranquility was full of warmth. One day, I was trimming flowers and plants in the yard, and Grandpa Yang came over slowly. "Child, this yard is getting more and more beautiful because of you." Grandpa Yang said with a smile. I put down the tools in my hand and responded, "Grandpa Yang, you are flattering me. We all live in this yard together, and I want to make it more comfortable." "Well said! Our courtyard is a big family. Everyone contributes to our lives, and life will get better and better." Grandpa Yang nodded. At this time, Aunt Hu came over with a basket of fruits. "What are you two talking about? You are so speculative." Grandpa Yang smiled, "We are talking about this yard. Xiao Hu, did you just buy this fruit?" Aunt Hu put the fruit on the stone table and said, "Yes, let everyone try it. The people in this courtyard are so nice, and we have to share what is delicious." As she was talking, several children ran over. "Auntie Hu, there are delicious foods!" A child stared at the fruit. Auntie Hu smiled and touched the child's head, "Little greedy cat, let's eat together later." The children gathered around the stone table, chattering about the fruits. Looking at their cute appearance, my heart was filled with warmth. "These children are the happy fruit of our courtyard." Grandpa Yang also showed a kind smile, "Yes, with them, this courtyard has become more lively." A few days later, the courtyard welcomed a special guest. A young painter walked into the courtyard with an easel on his back and was attracted by the quaint beauty of the courtyard. "Excuse me, can I paint a picture here?" The painter asked politely. Everyone gathered around and looked at the painter curiously. I answered on behalf of everyone: "Of course, you can paint whatever you want. It is also an honor for our courtyard to be included in your painting." The painter found a suitable angle, set up the easel, and prepared to paint. Everyone watched quietly on the side, full of expectation. "Are you a professional painter?" A child asked curiously. The painter smiled and replied, "I guess so. I like to paint everywhere and record beautiful scenery. Your courtyard is very beautiful and has a lot of flavor." "Then you must paint our courtyard beautifully." The child said innocently. The painter nodded, "Don't worry, I will try my best." While the painter was painting, everyone exchanged a few words with him from time to time. It was learned that he had been to many places and seen many beautiful scenery. "You have been to so many places, why do you think our courtyard is beautiful?" Uncle Wang asked. The painter stopped the brush in his hand, looked at the courtyard and said, "There is a unique atmosphere here, full of the breath of life and human touch. This is not available in many places." Everyone felt very proud after listening to the painter's words. After several hours of hard work, the painter finally completed his work. Everyone gathered around to appreciate it. The courtyard in the painting was simple and beautiful, the sun was shining in the courtyard, and everyone's face was filled with happy smiles. "It's a great painting! It's exactly the same as our courtyard." Aunt Li exclaimed. The painter smiled and said, "Thank you for letting me paint here. I will treasure this painting and hope you can always protect this beautiful courtyard." After the painter left, everyone looked at the painting with emotion in their hearts. This courtyard is not only our home, but also a beautiful scenery in the eyes of others. As the days go by, the story of the courtyard continues. Everyone experiences spring, summer, autumn and winter together, and writes a warm chapter belonging to this special place together. In a cold winter, snowflakes fluttered down, covering the courtyard with a layer of silver. Everyone hid in the house and kept warm around the stove. "It's snowing so heavily." Grandma Zhang looked at the snow scene outside the window and sighed. Grandpa Zhao nodded, "Yes, but this snow scene is also beautiful. When the snow stops, we can go out and make a snowman together." The children became excited when they heard it. "Okay, okay, we want to make a big snowman." After the snow stopped, everyone walked out of the house and came to the yard. The children couldn't wait to start making snowmen, and the adults helped on the side. "Put a hat on the snowman," one child said. "Put a scarf around it," another child said. Everyone worked together, and soon, a cute snowman was built. The children sang and danced around the snowman, and they were very happy. "This snowman is so beautiful," Aunt Sun said with a smile. "Yes, this is also a new member of our courtyard," Uncle Liu also joked. In this cold winter, the courtyard has become extra warm because of everyone's laughter. No matter how the seasons change, the love and warmth here will never change.

The winter courtyard is covered with snow, like a peaceful painting. Everyone gathered around the snowman, enjoying this rare happy time. "Hey, this snowman is really well made, just like our courtyard, full of vitality." Ma Dasao said with a smile. I stood aside, looking at the excited children and the smiling adults, and my heart was full of emotion: "Yes, this snow has brought a different scenery to the courtyard." Uncle Li rubbed his hands and exhaled hot air: "Although it is cold on this snowy day, it will be much warmer when everyone gathers together." As he was talking, several children began to run and play in the snow again. "Be careful, don't fall." Sister Zhou shouted hurriedly. A child stopped and said with a smile: "Auntie Zhou, we won't fall. This snow is fun." Everyone was infected by the innocence and liveliness of the children, and a warm smile appeared on their faces. As time passed, the weather gradually warmed up, and the breath of spring quietly descended on the courtyard. The old locust tree in the yard began to grow tender green buds, as if announcing a new beginning. One morning, I was watering the flowers and plants in the yard, and Granny Chen came over. "My child, spring is here, and there is a new scene in the yard." Granny Chen said with a smile. I put down the kettle and responded, "Yes, Granny Chen. Spring always makes people full of hope." "Seeing this yard becoming more and more beautiful, everyone's life is becoming more and more enjoyable." Granny Chen sighed. At this time, Brother Wu came in carrying a hoe. "What are you talking about? You look so happy." Granny Chen pointed to the flowers and plants in the yard and said, "We are talking about the Siheyuan in spring. Xiao Wu, what are you going to do?" Brother Wu raised his hoe and said, "I'm going to open up a piece of land in the open space behind the yard and plant some vegetables so that everyone can taste the fresh ones." When I heard it, I became interested: "Brother Wu, this is a good idea. I'll help too." So we got busy together in the open space behind the yard. Everyone worked hard to turn the soil, sow seeds, and water the vegetables. "When these vegetables grow, we can eat them together." Brother Wu said with a smile. "It must be delicious." I was also looking forward to it. Days passed, and the vegetables thrived under everyone's careful care. Finally, it was harvest season. "Wow, these vegetables are growing so well." Aunt Zhang looked at a basket of fresh vegetables and exclaimed. Uncle Wang also nodded in agreement: "Yes, this is the result of everyone's hard work." Everyone sat together and tasted the vegetables they grew, and their hearts were full of joy. "These vegetables grown by themselves are delicious, healthy and delicious." Aunt Li said while eating. "In the future, we can grow more vegetables to make life in the courtyard more colorful." Uncle Zhao suggested. Everyone agreed. In this hopeful spring, the courtyard ushered in new vitality and vigor. With the arrival of summer, the courtyard became more lively. The big trees in the yard provided everyone with a shade, and everyone often sat under the trees to enjoy the cool and chat. One evening, everyone sat in the yard, enjoying the summer breeze. "It's really hot this summer, but it's quite comfortable to cool off under this tree." Sister Liu said while fanning herself. I took a sip of tea and responded, "Yes, this big tree is a great place." "Summer is also a wonderful season. You can eat watermelon and drink cold drinks." Brother Zhou said with a smile. As he was talking, several children ran over with watermelons. "Uncles and aunts, we have watermelons to eat." Everyone looked at the cute appearance of the children and laughed. "Come, let's eat watermelon together." Aunt Wang cut the watermelon into small pieces and distributed it to everyone. In this hot summer, the people in the courtyard spent one beautiful day after another in laughter and joy. In autumn, the courtyard is shrouded in golden colors. The leaves in the yard gradually turned yellow and fell down, as if a golden carpet was laid on the ground. One day, I was cleaning the fallen leaves in the yard, and Grandpa Sun came over. "Children, this autumn is really a harvest season." Grandpa Sun said with emotion. I stopped sweeping and said, "Yes, Grandpa Sun. Autumn always makes people feel peaceful and satisfied." "Looking at the fallen leaves all over the yard, it's also a special flavor." Grandpa Sun said as he looked at the falling leaves. At this time, Sister Hu came over with a basket of fruits. "What are you talking about? This is the fruit I just picked from the orchard. Everyone, try it." Grandpa Sun smiled and said, "Xiao Hu, you are always so enthusiastic. This fruit looks delicious." Everyone sat together, tasting the fruit and sharing the story of autumn. In this beautiful season, the people in the courtyard continued their warm and happy life.
