Siheyuan: Sending Shazhu into the call center, Yi Gu is useless

Chen Rufeng looked at Huaihua with a lot of emotion in his heart. He didn't expect Huaihua to prepare such a sumptuous dinner for him, and his heart was full of gratitude.

"Thank you, Huaihua." Chen Rufeng said, "You are so kind."

Huaihua smiled, a little shyly, and said, "This is what I should do."

The two sat down and began to enjoy their dinner. The table was filled with all kinds of delicious food, the aroma was so fragrant that it made people salivate.

"Huaihua, these dishes are delicious!" Chen Rufeng praised.

Huaihua was delighted to hear this. She knew Chen Rufeng liked these dishes, so she specially prepared his favorite dishes for him.

"Rufeng, eat slowly. I'll serve you some more." Huaihua said with a smile, picking up the plate and picking up a piece of delicious braised pork for Chen Rufeng.

Chen Rufeng felt Huaihua's care and consideration. A warm feeling surged in his heart, and his gratitude towards Huaihua grew deeper.

After dinner, Huaihua made a cup of hot tea for Chen Rufeng, and the two sat on the sofa and chatted about the trivialities of daily life. Huaihua told Chen Rufeng that she had recently prepared some work and hoped to complete it smoothly.

"Huaihua, I believe you can do an excellent job." Chen Rufeng encouraged, "You are a very capable person."

Huaihua smiled and nodded, feeling grateful. She knew that Chen Rufeng's support and encouragement meant a lot to her.

However, at this moment, Hua Mei suddenly called. Huaihua picked up the phone and heard Hua Mei's anxious voice.

"Huaihua, I heard someone outside saying that you and Lao Jiang are living together. You have to be careful!" Hua Mei's voice was a little nervous.

Hearing this news, Huaihua was shocked. She knew that if Chen Rufeng knew this news, he might have a grudge and even affect their relationship. She thought that Chen Rufeng would not know about it, after all, he was not a gossipy person.

"Hua Mei, I understand. Thank you." Huaihua said, "I will pay attention."

Chen Rufeng likes quietness by nature, and likes to bask in the sun in the small courtyard of the quadrangle, or sit on a bench to drink tea and read. He often feels an ancient and quiet atmosphere in the quadrangle, as if this courtyard carries too many years and stories.

Chen Rufeng's father is a carpenter who is often busy in the workshop in the yard, repairing the old doors, windows and furniture of the courtyard. He always tells Chen Rufeng that this courtyard is the root of their family, passed down from generation to generation, and must be well protected.

In the courtyard, Chen Rufeng made many friends and neighbors. The aunt selling pancakes at the entrance of the alley and the uncle selling vegetables in the alley were an indispensable part of his life. Chen Rufeng and his neighbors often gathered in the courtyard on summer nights, enjoying the breeze, chatting, and talking about the changes in the city and the passing of time.

But as time went by, Chen Rufeng began to feel the changes around him. The neighbors in the courtyard gradually moved away, the old houses in the alleys were demolished and renovated, and many memories and habits disappeared unknowingly. Chen Rufeng gradually realized that the old city he was familiar with was quietly undergoing earth-shaking changes.

One day, Chen Rufeng received a demolition notice. The government planned to renovate the old city, and his courtyard house was also included in the demolition scope. Faced with this sudden change, Chen Rufeng fell into deep thought. The courtyard house carried too many of his memories and emotions. He was reluctant to leave, but he was powerless to change the pace of urban development.

So Chen Rufeng began to look for a solution. He participated in residents' discussions and communicated with relevant government departments, trying to preserve this piece of memory that belonged to them. In the process, Chen Rufeng met more like-minded friends, and everyone worked together to try to find a balance so that the changes in the old city would not cause people to lose too much.

Inside and outside the courtyard, time goes by, and Chen Rufeng's heart also fluctuates with the changes of the city. He realizes the impermanence and tenacity of life, and also learns to keep his roots and beliefs in the changes.

Chen Rufeng stood in the courtyard of the quadrangle, holding the cell phone close to his ear, listening to Yan Jiedi's gentle voice coming from the other end of the line.

"Rufeng, you know, I miss you so much." There was a hint of melancholy in Yan Jiedi's voice.

Chen Rufeng chuckled and said, "Me too, Jie Di. Without you around these days, I feel like the whole yard seems empty."

"I don't want to leave either, but the work here is so busy, there's nothing I can do." Yan Jiedi's voice sounded somewhat helpless.

Chen Rufeng's heart softened. He knew that Jie Di worked in another place and could only come back occasionally. Their relationship had always been based on mutual understanding and support. Although they were thousands of miles apart, it was still deep.

"It's okay, Jie Di. You go ahead and do your thing. I'll wait for you here." Chen Rufeng comforted.

"Well, Rufeng, you're so nice." Jie Di's voice was filled with gratitude and love.

Chen Rufeng looked at every corner of the courtyard and recalled every little detail of their lives. This courtyard witnessed their love and also carried their expectations and hopes.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Rufeng stood in the courtyard for a while. This once lively and friendly alley has gradually become deserted. Many neighbors have moved away, and the small restaurant at the entrance of the alley is no longer open. The old trees in the yard are still vigorous, but the surrounding buildings are becoming increasingly dilapidated.

Chen Rufeng decided to do something to revitalize the old courtyard of the Chen family. He remembered that Jie Di had said that she liked flowers and plants, so he renovated the courtyard and planted various flowers and plants. Every morning, Chen Rufeng would bring a kettle and water the flowers and plants in the courtyard, as if he was pampering Jie Di.

Soon, the flowers and plants in the yard were full of vitality and business. This also attracted some neighbors. Seeing Chen Rufeng's efforts, they began to gradually return to this once lively courtyard. Laughter and laughter often came from the yard, as if returning to the friendly time in the past.

Thanks to Chen Rufeng's efforts, the courtyard gradually regained new vitality. He renovated the doors and windows of the courtyard and repaired the walls, making the whole courtyard look brand new. The courtyard added some literary and artistic atmosphere. Chen Rufeng placed some bookshelves and tables and chairs, and invited neighbors to read and communicate here.

Chen Rufeng also invited a master craftsman to open a woodworking workshop in the yard to teach children handicrafts. The children learned to carve and build here, giving full play to their imagination and creativity.

The courtyard regained its vitality and became a beautiful landscape in the hutong. Chen Rufeng also met more like-minded friends, who organized various activities in the courtyard together to enrich everyone's life.
