Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

As the night deepens, the lights in the alley are dim and warm, guiding the way for people returning home. At this time, the lights in He Yuzhu's small kitchen are particularly bright, reflecting his busy and focused figure. He is wearing an apron and holding a kitchen knife, skillfully cutting fresh vegetables on the chopping board. Each cut is so precise and powerful, as if he is carving a fine work of art.

"Yushui, come and help me pick the vegetables. We have to prepare a sumptuous dinner for the study group tomorrow." He Yuzhu shouted while busying himself, with a bit of joy and anticipation in his voice. There were beads of sweat on his face, but his smile was extremely bright, and his eyes were shining with infinite longing for the future.

He Yushui came out of the room with a book in her hand, and a look of surprise and curiosity on her face. "Brother, what are you doing? Study group gathering? Weren't you selected for that technical training class? How do you still have time to do these activities?" Her tone was both puzzled and concerned.

He Yuzhu stopped what he was doing, turned around, and looked at his sister, his face filled with pride and joy. "Yes, Yushui, I not only joined the training class, but also wanted to make the atmosphere of the study group more harmonious and active. Food can bring people closer together. Moreover, although learning is important, we cannot ignore the fun of life and the emotional communication between people. So, through this gathering, I want everyone to enhance understanding and deepen friendship in a relaxed and happy atmosphere, and cheer for future study and life together."

After hearing this, He Yushui's mouth corners unconsciously rose, and a trace of approval and warmth flashed in her eyes, as if she was infected by her brother's enthusiasm. "Brother, you are always so thoughtful and always bring surprises and happiness to everyone. Okay, I'll help you pick the vegetables, and we will prepare for tomorrow's party together, so that this party will become an unforgettable and beautiful memory for everyone." As she spoke, she walked to the chopping board and began to carefully select vegetables, with both skilled and meticulous movements. The laughter of the brother and sister echoed in the small kitchen, like a ray of sunshine in winter, warm and bright.

He Yuzhu continued his cooking career, carefully selecting each ingredient as if he was performing a sacred ritual. Whether it was the freshness of steamed fish, the richness of braised pork, the crispness of cold cucumbers, or the sourness and sweetness of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, he strived to make each dish a work of art with good color, aroma and taste. He believed that food could not only satisfy everyone's taste buds, but also convey the warmth and strength of home, inspiring everyone to keep moving forward on the road of learning and create more good times together.

"Yushui, look at this braised pork. It's bright red like agate, fatty but not greasy, and melts in your mouth. Isn't it appetizing?" He Yuzhu pointed at the braised pork that had just come out of the pot and showed it to his sister with a proud look on his face. His eyes were full of pride and expectation.

He Yushui looked at the delicious food in front of him and couldn't help swallowing his saliva, his eyes full of admiration and surprise. "Brother, your cooking skills are getting better and better, and you can almost compete with a chef. Tomorrow, the partners in the study group will definitely be conquered by your delicious food and eat it with relish and praise it."

At the same time, in Xu Damao's room, the light was soft and warm, reflecting his slightly nervous but excited face. He sat in front of the window, his hands folded on his knees, his eyes looking through the window lattice into the deep and bright night sky. The stars were like countless shining gems, as if telling endless stories, and as if silently witnessing his inner changes and growth.

"Mom and Dad, I'm back." Xu Damao gently opened the door and walked into the living room. There was a slight tremor in his voice, but more of it was firmness and confidence. His parents were sitting on the sofa, and the TV was playing their favorite programs, but at this moment, their attention was completely focused on their son, and their eyes were full of concern and expectation.

"Da Mao, why are you here so late today? How was the training? Is it going well?" asked his father, Xu Fu, with a tone full of love and care. His eyes were full of trust and support for his son, as if silently telling Xu Damao that no matter what difficulties he encountered, his family would be his strongest support.

Xu Damao took a deep breath and tried to make his voice sound more firm and confident. "Dad, Mom, I officially joined the technical training class today. This opportunity is really important to me. I will cherish this opportunity, study hard, and constantly improve myself to live up to your expectations." His tone was full of pride and joy, but also a little bit of trepidation and nervousness, but more of it was longing and expectation for the future.

Hearing this, mother Xu's face lit up with a relieved smile. She gently patted the sofa beside her and motioned her son to sit down. "Da Mao, Mom knows you can do it. You must seize this training and try to learn real skills so that you can have a better future."

Xu Damao nodded and turned his gaze to the window again, feeling mixed emotions. "I know, Mom. This training is both an opportunity and a challenge for me. I... I used to have a lot of bad habits, I know. But this time, I want to change. I want to devote myself to learning, to prove it to myself, and to you."

After hearing this, Father Xu's eyes flashed with a barely perceptible tear, and he gently patted his son's shoulder. "Da Mao, your mother and I are relieved that you think this way. Remember, no matter what difficulties you encounter, your family will always be your strongest support. We believe that you can do it."

Xu Damao turned his head and looked at his parents' eyes full of trust and encouragement. A warm feeling surged in his heart. He took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind. "Dad, Mom, thank you. I will, I will definitely work hard and not let you down."

That night, Xu Damao lay in bed, tossing and turning, his heart full of longing and expectation for the future. He knew that the road ahead was not smooth, but he also understood that only by working hard can he achieve success. So, he secretly made up his mind to change those bad habits, devote himself to study, prove himself with practical actions, and repay his parents' expectations and trust.

On this quiet night, Xu Damao's heart is full of strength and hope. He believes that as long as there is a dream in his heart, there is a way under his feet. No matter how rough the road ahead is, he will walk bravely until he reaches the other side of his dream.
