Siheyuan, integrating everything, cultivating the city

The next day, Li Xiangqian got up early and walked in the yard, thinking about how to start the conversation. Just then he saw Lou Xiao'e coming over, so he quickly went up to her.

"Xiao E, there is something I want to discuss with you." Li Xiangqian said hesitantly.

Lou Xiao'e looked at him and smiled gently: "Brother Li, just tell me what's the matter, and we'll find a solution together."

Li Xiangqian sighed and said, "It's about Lao Li. Lao Li has lived here for a while. He is a very nice person and has good skills, but I always feel that this can't go on forever. I have to find a long-term way out for him. Do you have any good suggestions?"

Lou Xiao'e pondered for a while and said, "Brother Li, I feel the same way. Old Li really needs a stable living environment. I think why don't we help him find a formal job so that he can have a stable income and a place to live, so that he can feel at ease."

Li Xiangqian nodded, thinking that this was a good suggestion. He thought to himself that he knew some friends in the furniture business who might be able to help him find a carpentry job. He decided to contact these friends immediately to see if there were any suitable opportunities.

In the afternoon, Li Xiangqian came to the city and found an old friend, Boss Zhang. Boss Zhang runs a furniture factory and has been doing good business. Li Xiangqian introduced Lao Li's situation to him in detail, hoping to get his help.

After listening to him, Boss Zhang smiled and said, "Xiang Qian, bring him to my place to try. If his skills are really good, I just need a good carpenter here."

Li Xiangqian was delighted and quickly thanked him: "Thank you, Boss Zhang. I will bring him here tomorrow and show you his cooking skills."

Back at the courtyard, Li Xiangqian told Old Li the good news. Old Li was so excited that tears flashed in his eyes: "Brother Li, I really don't know how to thank you. I will work hard and live up to your expectations."

Li Xiangqian patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him: "Old Li, as long as you work hard, everything will be fine. We believe in you."

The next morning, Li Xiangqian brought Lao Li to Boss Zhang's furniture factory. Boss Zhang personally received them, took Lao Li on a tour, and then asked him to try making a piece of furniture. Lao Li operated the tools skillfully, and his craftsmanship was indeed superb. Boss Zhang looked at it and nodded with satisfaction.

"Old Li, your skills are excellent. Welcome to join us. This will be your new home from now on." Boss Zhang said with a smile.

Old Li thanked him repeatedly with great excitement, his heart full of gratitude and hope. He knew that this was his chance to start over, and he would definitely cherish it.

Li Xiangqian looked at the smile on Lao Li's face and felt extremely satisfied. He knew that his efforts were not in vain and Lao Li finally found his home. He chatted with Boss Zhang for a while, discussed some work details in detail, and then left.

Back at the courtyard, Li Xiangqian told Lou Xiaoe and the neighbors the good news. Everyone was happy for Li and congratulated him. Li also said goodbye to everyone who had helped him with gratitude.

A few days later, Lao Li officially moved into the dormitory of the furniture factory and started a new life. Li Xiangqian and Lou Xiao'e often visited him and cared about his work and life. Lao Li's face showed confidence and happiness again. He used his own hands to create a better life.

Li Xiangqian stood in the yard, looking at the flowers and plants in the garden, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart. He knew that life is always full of challenges and opportunities. As long as you face it with your heart, you will definitely find your own way. He secretly decided to continue working hard to bring more warmth and hope to everyone in the courtyard.

Time flies, and spring is gone in the blink of an eye. In the courtyard, everyone is still busy, fulfilled and happy. The relationship between Li Xiangqian and Lou Xiaoe is getting closer and closer. The two have a tacit understanding and care and support each other. Whenever it is late at night, Li Xiangqian lies on the bed, thinking about what happened these days, and feels extremely satisfied and happy.

One evening, Li Xiangqian and Lou Xiao'e sat on a stone bench in the yard, looking at the starry sky. Li Xiangqian suddenly said, "Xiao'e, thank you for your support and help. Without you, I don't know if I could have come this far."

Lou Xiao'e looked at him with a smile, her eyes full of tenderness: "Brother Li, we are friends, there is no need to be so polite. As long as we are together and help each other, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome."

Li Xiangqian walked out of the room and found that the sky was gloomy and heavy clouds were hanging low. It seemed that it would snow at any time. He looked up at the sky and worried secretly: although the snow in winter is beautiful, it also brings a lot of trouble. He quickly quickened his pace and prepared to go to the market to buy some cold-resistant supplies and food in case of emergency.

As soon as he walked to the market, he met his neighbor Qin Huairu. Qin Huairu was carrying a few bags of rice and noodles. Seeing Li Xiangqian, a trace of worry appeared on her face: "Brother Xiangqian, you are here to buy things too? Look at the weather today. If it snows, I'm afraid it will be difficult to live."

Li Xiangqian nodded: "Yes, Huairu, it's going to snow soon. I also want to stock up on some things so that I don't have to go out when it gets cold."

The two walked into the market together. Li Xiangqian picked some fresh vegetables and meat, and bought some coal and firewood. Qin Huairu bought some snacks and clothes that the children liked. The two walked and talked, feeling a little worried, but also a little warm, because they knew they had each other's company and support.

Back at the courtyard, Li Xiangqian sorted out the things he had bought one by one, and felt much more at ease. He decided to visit each household and remind everyone to prepare for the snow. He first went to He Yuzhu's house and knocked on the door.

He Yuzhu opened the door and saw Li Xiangqian, and asked with a smile: "Xiangqian, what's the matter?"

"Yuzhu, look at the sky, it's going to snow. I just came back from the market and wanted to remind everyone to stock up more things in case of emergency." Li Xiangqian said with concern.

He Yuzhu nodded: "You are right, I also think the weather is going to change. I will go buy some more coal and food."

Li Xiangqian went to several more houses and told them his concerns and suggestions. The neighbors all agreed and started to get busy preparing for the snow. When he returned to his own home, Li Xiangqian was relieved to see that everything was in order.

In the evening, sporadic snowflakes floated in the sky. Li Xiangqian stood in the yard, watching the snowflakes fall one by one, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart. The snow gradually became heavier, and the whole courtyard was shrouded in silver and white, like a fairy tale world.
