Siheyuan: Heavy Industry Revitalizes the Country

"Ah! You're almost late!"

Liu Shuying came out of the courtyard with a red face.

I was so happy to see Fang Xiang’s sweat coming out of his head.

"Well, I just went to see my mentor and was delayed on the way."

Fang Xiang said with a smile.

"Why do you carry so many things?"

Liu Shuying looked at the things hanging on the handlebars of the bicycle and felt a little resentful.

"It's my first time coming to your house, so it's inappropriate to come empty-handed.

Besides, the Chinese New Year is coming in two days, so I might as well say happy New Year in advance."

Fang wanted to explain.

"You have the most reasons."

Liu Shuying complained, but the curled corners of her mouth and eyes betrayed her.

After passing the checkpoint, not far away we arrived at Liu's house, an independent two-story Western-style building.

"Hey, this is Xiao Fang, come in quickly."

Mother Liu was already waiting at the door.

I had seen Fang Xiang's photo before, so I couldn't recognize her. But now, I was smiling from ear to ear.

"Hello, Auntie. This is my first time here. I'm sorry for my poor manners. Please bear with me."

Fang Xiang parked his bicycle, took the gift and followed Liu Shuying into the house.

"Come on, kid. It's no big deal to bring so many things."

Like Liu Shuying, Mother Liu was complaining.

But in his heart, he felt that Fang Xiang was a sensible child and he liked him more and more.

"Eat some fruit."

After welcoming Fang Xiang in, he took out the candies and fruits that had been prepared long ago and placed them all in front of Fang Xiang.

"Thank you auntie."

Fang Xiang picked up an apple and started eating it.

"You can chat with Xiaoying for a while, the meal will be ready soon."

Mother Liu looked at Fang Xiang with satisfaction, then went to the kitchen to busy herself.

"You came at the right time today. My brother and dad will be back soon."

When Liu Shuying saw Fang Xiang biting the apple without peeling it, she glared at him with her big eyes.

Then she snatched the apple from his hand and began to peel it.

"Oh, I'm afraid they're going to interrogate me, right?"

Fang Xiang immediately started joking, but his eyes quickly scanned the room.

The house is not small. The living room alone is more than 40 square meters.

There is a separate kitchen and bathroom downstairs, as well as two rooms with closed doors.

There is a spiral staircase with an escalator on the side that leads to the second floor.

A rough estimate shows that it is probably more than 300 square meters.

That would have been fine, but what he didn't expect was that there was a TV, a refrigerator, a window air conditioner and a fan in the living room.

I didn't expect Liu Shuying's family conditions were so good, and I don't know what her family situation is like.

I felt a little uneasy.

"You're the only one with a poor mouth!"

In fact, Liu Shuying was unsure, but she was too embarrassed to say it.

Pretending to be angry, he stretched out his foot and kicked Fang Xiang lightly.

But she secretly made up her mind that she must protect her beloved boyfriend.

"Hey, are you trying to murder your husband?!"

Fang Xiang pretended to be in pain and hugged his calf.

"Hey, are you okay? I didn't mean to do that, just a little?!"

Liu Shuying was fooled and quickly put down the apple and the fruit knife.

He bent down and was about to reach out and lift up Fang Xiang's trouser leg to take a look.

"Hey, it's okay, I'm just teasing you."

Fang thought there was no way he would let her lift up his trouser legs, so he quickly said he was joking.

"Death sign!"

Liu Shuying then realized that she had been fooled, but she remembered that Fang Xiang had just said that she had murdered her husband.

His face suddenly became hot and he pinched the soft flesh on Fang Xiang's waist.

Just as the two were playing, Liu's father came back.

"It's Xiao Fang who's here."

Mr. Liu looks tall, wearing a gray Zhongshan suit, with his hair combed back, and he looks very kind.

Following behind was a young couple with a cute little girl.

The man looked to be less than 30 years old and looked somewhat like Liu Shuying.

The woman was tall and had a sweet look. She was holding a little girl who looked like a porcelain doll in her arms.

"This is my dad, my brother Liu Qiwen and my sister-in-law, and that's my little niece, Fanfan."

Liu Shuying quickly introduced Fang Xiang.

"Hello uncle, hello big brother, hello sister-in-law, hello Xiao Fanfan."

Fang Xiang stood up and greeted everyone.

Then he held the hand that Liu's father extended to him with both hands.

"Okay, okay, the young man is very energetic."

Father Liu looked at Fang Xiang with a smile and patted him on the shoulder.

Then it was Liu Qiwen who also smiled and came over to shake hands with Fang Xiang.

"Sit down, sit down. Now that you are at my house, don't be polite."

After Mr. Liu sat on the main seat on the sofa, he asked Fang Xiang to sit down as well.

Everyone had just sat down and hadn't exchanged a few words.

Mother Liu and an aunt who looked like a nanny were carrying large and small plates of food.

It was placed on the large coffee table.

After a while, eight plates filled the coffee table.

There are fish, chicken, beef, and several kinds of seasonal stir-fried vegetables.

Quite rich.

"Come on, Xiao Fang, don't be polite, just treat this as your own home."

Mother Liu greeted them warmly.

"Thank you auntie."

Fang Xiang didn't hesitate and picked up the bowl and chopsticks.

The Liu family's education seems to be quite strict, and people basically don't talk much.

Even the little girl who looked only three or four years old was eating seriously with her own bowl.

Although those big, flickering eyes were always staring at Fang Xiang.

"Eat more vegetables. You are still in the growth stage and you cannot lack nutrition."

The only relatively active person is Liu's mother.

He seemed to be always worried that Fang Xiang wasn't full, and kept putting food into his bowl.

The dishes are mainly meat.

"Auntie, you are too polite. I can do it myself."

In the end, the food in Fang Xiang's bowl was almost piled up like a mountain, so he had to say a few polite words.

"Xiao Fang, let's go to the study and have some tea."

After dinner, Mr. Liu asked Fang Xiang to go to the study to talk.

Fang Xiang responded and followed obediently, fearing that he was going to be tested.

"Qiwen, make tea."

After the three grown men entered the study, Father Liu asked Liu Qiwen to make tea first.

Then he sat on the chair, stopped talking, just lit a cigarette and looked at Fang Xiang.

As time passed, there was still no word spoken. In the entire study, the only sound was Liu Qiwen making tea.

Unfortunately, Fang Xiang had studied psychology and knew that this was the power of silence.

So he smiled calmly and looked at Mr. Liu.

When the hot tea was placed in front of him, Mr. Liu nodded with satisfaction and spoke.

"You and Xiaoying are together, and we strongly support it.

But now you are still young and in an important learning stage, so you should focus on your studies. "

Fang Xiang was a little surprised when he heard the first words of Liu's father.

At first, he thought that in this era, parents still opposed premature love.

I didn't expect the Liu family to be so open-minded.

But he forgot that at this time, many young people of his age have already gotten married.

Some of them were quick enough to even hold the children.

"We are also aware of your family's situation.

From now on, just treat this place as your home, and Qiwen is your elder brother.

No matter what happens or if you feel wronged, there is no need to hold it in or hide it.

If it is inconvenient to find Professor Xu and Lao Hu, come back and tell me or your eldest brother. "

Father Liu saw Fang Xiang nodded and continued speaking.

Fang Xiang didn't expect that the Liu family knew so much about his situation.

He even knew clearly that he followed Professor Xu and knew Mr. Hu.

Professor Xu’s thighs are that thick.

Could it be that Mr. Liu’s legs are thicker?

Fang Xiang was a little nervous at this time, but he didn't know what to say and could only nod.

"Qiwen is now at the Youth League's General Office near Qianmen.

You can visit more often in the future."

As soon as Fang Xiang heard the word "Communist Youth League" at Qianmen, he immediately understood.

This is definitely the best place to get gilded.

Stay in this place for a few years and gain some experience. As long as a good position becomes available, you can jump in at any time.

It seems that this future big brother is currently in a dormant stage.

As long as there is a chance, I can take off on the spot. I can't help but feel envious.
