Siheyuan, integrating everything, cultivating the city

That evening, Old Li came to Li Xiangqian's courtyard again. Seeing the chicks playing around in the vegetable shed, he couldn't help but asked with a smile, "Xiangqian, your chicks are really helping a lot now."

Li Xiangqian nodded, with a bit of pride in his smile: "Yes, I didn't expect them to be so capable. Seeing that there are fewer insects on the leaves, I finally feel relieved."

Lao Li smiled and said, "It seems that you have really tried every possible way. But it is not easy. The chicks must not only be taken care of, but also trained properly. Your method is really good. It seems that I will have to try it in the future."

Li Xiangqian shook his head in a relaxed manner. "It's nothing special. I just saw that the chickens had such instincts, so I just asked them to help. It's also a clever solution."

As they chatted, Li Xiangqian showed Lao Li the chickens he had carefully taken care of and the progress of the vegetable shed. Lao Li looked at the vibrant vegetable shed and healthy chickens, and couldn't help but sigh at Li Xiangqian's dedication and wisdom.

As night fell, the lights of the courtyard gently sprinkled on the ground. Li Xiangqian stood by the vegetable shed, watching the chickens roosting safely in the chicken coop, and his heart was filled with a quiet sense of satisfaction. He knew that every attempt and effort in life brought him one step closer to his dream.

In the following days, Li Xiangqian continued to take good care of the vegetable shed and the chicks. He gradually found that his life had become colorful and every busy day was full of meaning and value. His interaction with the chicks was not only to solve problems, but also became a unique way of fun and relaxation in his life.

Sometimes, he would sit in the yard, looking at the chicks in the chicken coop, and feel a warm touch in his heart. He knew that these little lives were not only a part of his life, but also a testimony of his efforts and persistence. He felt the simple but profound happiness in life, and this feeling made his heart more fulfilled and peaceful.

As time went by, everything in the courtyard gradually got back on track. Li Xiangqian's vegetable shed and chicken coop were running steadily, the vegetables were growing well, and the chickens were getting healthier and healthier. Li Xiangqian felt that his life was gradually becoming more fulfilling, but he did not relax. Instead, he worked harder every day, looking forward to better harvests and results.

That morning, Li Xiangqian was checking the growth of vegetables in the vegetable shed when he suddenly heard a hurried knock on the door. He looked up and saw He Yuzhu standing outside the door, looking a little nervous.

"Brother Xiang Qian, are you there?" He Yuzhu's voice was somewhat anxious, as if he had something important to say.

Li Xiangqian stood up, wiped the dirt off his hands, and walked to the door: "Yuzhu, come in. What's going on?"

He Yuzhu entered the yard and looked around the courtyard, with a bit of surprise and envy in his eyes: "Brother Xiangqian, your courtyard is really nice, and the vegetable shed is also very tidy. I heard that your vegetables have grown very well recently, and I am a little curious."

Li Xiangqian smiled and waved his hand: "Thank you for the compliment. Actually, it's nothing special, I just take good care of you. What do you want from me?"

He Yuzhu hesitated for a moment, then said seriously: "Actually, I came to you because I have some ideas. I also want to try growing vegetables recently, but I have no experience at all. I heard that you are good at this, so I want to ask you for advice."

Li Xiangqian's heart tightened slightly. Although He Yuzhu's words surprised him, he knew that he had been very busy recently and really had no time to guide others. He was a little hesitant and confused.

"Yuzhui, do you want to learn how to grow vegetables?" Li Xiangqian asked tentatively, with a hint of concern and confusion in his tone.

He Yuzhu nodded, with a bit of anticipation in his eyes: "Yes, I am a little interested in this. I think if I can learn some experience, maybe I can try it myself in the future."

Li Xiangqian took a deep breath, and his inner hesitation deepened. He knew that he did have a lot of experience and skills, but this knowledge and experience was accumulated through his own years of practice and exploration. He was worried about whether he could spare enough time to guide others, and he was also worried that he might still need to deal with some details.

"Yuzhu, although I am willing to help you, I have been very busy recently and I am afraid I don't have enough time and energy to guide you." Li Xiangqian said with a little apology in his tone, "I think you can read some related books or videos first, maybe it will be helpful to you."

He Yuzhu looked a little disappointed, but he still tried to force a smile: "I understand, Brother Xiangqian. Actually, I also know that you are very busy recently, but I just want to try my luck. Thank you for your advice, I will look for other resources."

Li Xiangqian felt sorry for He Yuzhu's expression. He knew that He Yuzhu's loss was not because he did not get help, but because his interest and passion in this field were not realized. He felt a little guilty, and a complex emotion arose in his heart.

"Yuzhu, if there is any other help, I am willing to do my best." Li Xiangqian added, with a bit of sincerity in his tone, "If you encounter any problems in the learning process, you can always come to me, and I will try my best to provide some suggestions."

He Yuzhu's eyes flashed with gratitude: "Thank you, Brother Xiangqian. Your understanding and support are very important to me. Then I won't bother you anymore. I will come to ask you for advice after I have some basic knowledge."

Li Xiangqian watched He Yuzhu leave, feeling a sense of relief and heaviness in his heart. He knew that his refusal might disappoint He Yuzhu, but he also understood that he really couldn't provide enough help in his current situation. The inner entanglement and uneasiness gradually subsided, and he continued to devote himself to his work, trying to find a balance in his busy affairs.

As time went by, Li Xiangqian gradually adapted to this busy and fulfilling life. He continued to take good care of the vegetable shed and the chickens, trying to improve the quality of the vegetables as much as possible, and also tried to improve his planting techniques. He knew that every effort he made on this land was constantly accumulating and growing, and the future harvest and results were getting closer and closer.

Sometimes, Li Xiangqian would sit in the yard, looking at the vegetables growing up in the distance and the chickens living in the chicken coop, and his heart would be filled with a deep sense of satisfaction. He knew that everything he did on this land was not only to harvest a good harvest, but also to find the meaning and value of life.
