Siheyuan, integrating everything, cultivating the city

Li Xiangqian returned to his study and began to sort out the books and manuscripts that had been piled up for a long time. As he sorted, he recalled the knowledge and happiness that the books had brought him. He opened an old book and saw a yellowed photo inside. It was a photo of him and a few friends traveling together when he was young. Looking at the smiling faces of his young self and his friends in the photo, Li Xiangqian felt a surge of emotion.

"Those were really carefree years," he said to himself. "Although my life is peaceful now, I always feel like something is missing." He carefully put the photo back into the book and continued to sort out the manuscript. Suddenly, he saw an old letter with an unfinished article on it. It was an article he wrote many years ago about his life experience, but for various reasons, it was not completed in the end.

"Maybe, I can start writing again and finish these unfinished works." Li Xiangqian felt excited and decided to start with this article and pick up his dream of writing again.

At night, Li Xiangqian sat at his desk, lit a desk lamp, and began to re-examine the unfinished article. He read it carefully and found that although his writing style was immature, it was full of passion and inspiration. He decided to keep the original appearance of the article, make only some necessary changes, and then continue writing.

During the writing process, Li Xiangqian found that his mood gradually became calm and fulfilled. Every time he wrote a new paragraph, he would feel a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. He knew that this was not just an article, but also an expression of his soul.

A few days later, Li Xiangqian finally finished the article. He looked at every word he wrote with satisfaction and felt that he had found the purpose and direction of his life again. He decided to submit the article to some literary magazines to see if he could get some feedback.

At the same time, Li Xiangqian also began to think about whether he should write a book about his experiences and insights over the years. This idea made him extremely excited. He felt that he had many stories to tell and many feelings to express. He hoped that through words, more people would feel the beauty and hope of life.

Li Xiangqian was immersed in writing every day. He found that he was more inspired and his writing became more fluent. As time went by, his manuscript gradually took shape, and each chapter was filled with his love and thoughts on life.

One cold afternoon, Li Xiangqian received a letter from a literary magazine he had contributed to. He couldn't wait to open the envelope, and when he saw the words on it, he was excited. The editor of the magazine spoke highly of his article, expressed his willingness to publish his work, and hoped that he would continue to contribute.

Li Xiangqian held the letter, his heart filled with joy and gratitude. He knew that his efforts were finally recognized, which made him full of confidence and expectations for the future. He decided to continue writing, not only for himself, but also for those who are looking for hope and strength in life.

Li Xiangqian's writing career is getting smoother and smoother. His articles have been published in major magazines and are loved by more and more readers. Whenever he receives letters and feedback from readers, he feels extremely satisfied and happy.

One spring morning, Li Xiangqian stood in the yard, looking at the newly sprouted buds, his heart full of hope. He knew that he had found the meaning and direction of life, and no matter what the future held, he would move forward bravely.

At this moment, Li Xiangqian received a call from Lou Xiaoe. There was a hint of excitement in her voice: "Brother Li, I have good news to tell you! One of my recent designs won a big prize, and I want to come back to celebrate with you!"

When Li Xiangqian heard the news, he was filled with joy and excitement: "Xiao E, that's great! I have always believed that you will succeed. When will you come back? I will be ready."

After Li Xiangqian hung up the phone, his heart was filled with joy and anticipation. He stood in the yard, looking at the sky, and found that the sky was getting darker and the air was filled with a chill. He knew that it was going to snow soon. Li Xiangqian walked to the center of the yard, looked up at the sky, and felt the coming snow. He was looking forward to the beautiful natural scenery and excited about meeting Lou Xiaoe.

He decided to make some preparations for Lou Xiao'e's return. First, he had to make sure every corner of the courtyard was warm and clean. Li Xiangqian began to clean the yard, sweeping away the fallen leaves and dust on the ground, then returned to the house, lit the stove, and tidied all the bedding and blankets in the room. He also went to the market to buy some fresh ingredients to prepare a hearty dinner for Lou Xiao'e.

After everything was ready, Li Xiangqian sat in the study, looking at the snowflakes gradually falling outside the window, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart. He recalled the time he spent with Lou Xiaoe, and his heart was filled with sweetness and touching. Although the two were thousands of miles apart, their hearts were always closely connected.

As the snowflakes grew bigger, the courtyard was soon covered with a layer of white snow, and the whole courtyard looked peaceful and beautiful. Li Xiangqian stood in the middle of the courtyard, admiring the snow scene in front of him, his heart filled with peace and satisfaction. He knew that this beautiful snow scene would be the best gift to welcome Lou Xiao'e back.

A few days later, Li Xiangqian received a call from Lou Xiao'e, who told him that she had boarded the train back home and was expected to arrive in the evening. Li Xiangqian was excited and quickly made the final preparations. He lit lanterns in the yard, making the whole yard look particularly warm and beautiful. He also specially cooked a pot of steaming red bean soup, waiting for Lou Xiao'e's arrival.

At night, the snow was still falling, and the courtyard was brightly lit. Li Xiangqian stood at the door, looking at the street in the distance, expecting a familiar figure. Soon, he saw a familiar figure walking slowly in the snow. It was Lou Xiao'e. She was wearing a thick coat and walking towards him with a bright smile on her face.

"Xiao'e, you're finally back!" Li Xiangqian walked over quickly, took her luggage, and asked with concern, "Did you have a good journey? Are you cold?"

Lou Xiao'e smiled and shook her head: "Fortunately, you are here waiting for me. I am not afraid of anything." There was a warm light flashing in her eyes, which filled Li Xiangqian's heart with warmth.

They walked into the house, Li Xiangqian helped Lou Xiao'e take off her coat, and took her to the stove to keep warm. Lou Xiao'e looked at the layout of the courtyard and said with emotion: "Brother Li, you are so thoughtful, everything here is so warm."
