Siheyuan: Tathagata's Palm suppresses the entire courtyard!

Although our lives are not rich, we have family, friends and hope, and that is enough.”

Xu Mingjie hugged his wife, his eyes affectionate: "Hong, you are right. No matter what the future holds, as long as we are together, everything will be fine."

"Well done, everyone! Thank you for your hard work!" Xu Mingjie said loudly. His fellow workers all smiled with satisfaction and patted each other on the shoulders to celebrate this success.

When Xu Mingjie got home, Li Hong had already prepared a sumptuous dinner. As soon as he entered the house, he smelled an alluring aroma and immediately felt that all the fatigue of the day had dissipated.

"You've worked so hard today, you need to reward yourself." Li Hong said with a smile, bringing the last dish to the table.

Xu Mingjie looked at the table full of delicious food and said gratefully, "Hong, thank you for your hard work."

The family sat around the dining table, enjoying a warm dinner. Xiao Ming excitedly told about the interesting things in school, Li Hong responded with a smile from time to time, and Xu Mingjie listened quietly, feeling the warmth of home.

Late at night, the courtyard regained its tranquility. Xu Mingjie lay on the bed, thinking back to the day, his heart filled with satisfaction and anticipation for the future. No matter how difficult life was, as long as they had the support of their family and the help of their friends, they could overcome all difficulties and welcome a better tomorrow.

As the days go by, the courtyard is still full of laughter. Xu Mingjie and his co-workers work hard in the factory, neighbors care about each other in the courtyard, and children grow up in joy. This small courtyard witnesses their struggle and growth, and carries their dreams and hopes. Every ordinary day becomes fulfilling and beautiful with their efforts.

One day, Xu Mingjie received an unexpected phone call from his old friend Zhang Jianguo whom he had not seen for many years.

"Mingjie, it's me, Jianguo." Zhang Jianguo's voice sounded a little excited.

"Jianguo! Where are you now?" Xu Mingjie asked in surprise.

"I'm on a business trip and I happened to have the chance to come back. Are you free in the evening? Let's get together." Zhang Jianguo said with a smile.

"Of course I have time! Great, old friend, long time no see!" Xu Mingjie said excitedly.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Mingjie was full of expectations. Zhang Jianguo was his old friend. They had worked together in the factory many years ago, but later he was transferred to another place. After not seeing each other for many years, Xu Mingjie was very happy to be reunited this time.

In the evening, Xu Mingjie and Li Hong prepared a sumptuous dinner early. Zhang Jianguo arrived on time, with a dusty face and a smile on his face.

"Mingjie, Hong, long time no see!" As soon as Zhang Jianguo entered the door, he hugged Xu Mingjie and Li Hong warmly.

"Jianguo, come in and sit down. Let's have a good chat tonight." Xu Mingjie said with a smile and welcomed Zhang Jianguo into the house.

At the dinner table, the three talked about the past with laughter. Zhang Jianguo talked about his experiences over the years, while Xu Mingjie and Li Hong shared their lives in the courtyard. Although time has passed, the friendship remains the same, and the three had a great time chatting.

"Mingjie, Hong, your life is really enviable." Zhang Jianguo said with emotion, "I have been running around for so many years. Although I have achieved a lot, I always feel that something is missing."

Xu Mingjie smiled and said, "Jianguo, no matter where you go, home is always the warmest place. Although our life is ordinary, we are very satisfied."

Zhang Jianguo nodded, with a hint of envy in his eyes: "Yes, having family around is the greatest happiness."

It was late at night, Zhang Jianguo said goodbye reluctantly, Xu Mingjie and Li Hong saw him off to the door and watched him leave. Returning to the house, Xu Mingjie was filled with emotion, feeling the preciousness of friendship and the beauty of life.

In the following days, Xu Mingjie was still busy in the factory, and life in the courtyard continued in peace. Every day, they worked hard for a better life and welcomed every new challenge and opportunity.

One weekend morning, the courtyard welcomed a special guest. A young girl knocked on Xu Mingjie's door with a hint of nervousness and expectation on her face.

"Hello, my name is Li Fang, and I'm Ran Qiuye's cousin." The girl said politely.

Xu Mingjie and Li Hong looked at each other and quickly let her in: "Li Fang, please come in. Qiu Ye's cousin? We haven't met her yet."

After Li Fang sat down, she smiled and said, "I just came back from another trip. Sister Qiuye often mentioned you and said you were her best friends. I came back this time to find a job. I heard that the factory was hiring, so I came to try my luck."

Xu Mingjie nodded and smiled, "Our factory is indeed hiring. Li Fang, what position do you want to apply for?"

Li Fang said a little nervously: "I studied mechanical engineering and hope to find a related job in a factory."

Xu Mingjie thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, Li Fang, don't be nervous. Our factory just needs such professionals. I will tell the factory manager and you can go to the factory for an interview tomorrow."

Li Fang smiled gratefully: "Thank you, Uncle Xu. Thank you very much!"

Li Hong also smiled and said, "Li Fang, you're welcome. Since you are Qiu Ye's relative, you are our friend. I hope you can pass the interview smoothly."

The next day, Li Fang went to the factory for an interview as scheduled. Xu Mingjie specifically explained the situation to the factory manager, who carefully reviewed Li Fang's resume and approved of her professional background. After a detailed interview, Li Fang passed.

Li Fang happily ran to tell Xu Mingjie and Li Hong: "Uncle Xu, I passed! The factory manager said I can start working next week."

Xu Mingjie and Li Hong were also happy for her: "Congratulations, Li Fang! I hope you can achieve something in the factory."

Li Fang nodded, her eyes full of hope and confidence: "Thank you, I will definitely work hard!"

Time flies, Li Fang gradually found her place in the factory, she worked hard and soon won the recognition of her colleagues. Xu Mingjie looked at this young girl, as if he saw himself when he first entered the factory, and his heart was filled with satisfaction.

On an autumn afternoon, the courtyard was still so peaceful and tranquil. Xu Mingjie and Li Hong sat under the old locust tree in the yard, enjoying their rare leisure time. Xiao Ming was playing nearby, and Li Fang also came over and sat down, with a happy smile on her face.

"Uncle Xu, Aunt Li, I am really grateful to you. During this time in the factory, I have learned a lot and made many friends." Li Fang said gratefully.

Xu Mingjie smiled and said, "Li Fang, we are also very happy to see that you can adapt to the new environment. The factory is a big family, and we are all working hard to make this family better."
