Siheyuan: Separate from the beginning and live with my sister

Inside the courtyard, He Lin and Yu Shui got up early in the morning. Today was the first day of the new year, and they had to visit relatives and friends to wish them a happy new year.

They went to the backyard first in order of distance to wish the deaf old lady a happy new year.

The old lady took Yu Shui's hand, took out a dollar from her pocket and gave it to Yu Shui.

"It's the New Year, you must accept the New Year's money given to the girl."

Seeing He Lin nodded in agreement, Yu Shui accepted it.

In fact, Yu Shui has a lot of money. He Lin gives her living expenses every week. Yang Xue and Yu Li treat her as a younger sister and give her some money every now and then. She has saved more than 100 yuan during this period, which is higher than the income of an average family.

"Thank you, old lady. I wish you good fortune and a long life."

After leaving the deaf old lady's house, He Lin visited a few familiar homes, and then went to find Yu Li with Yu Shui.

It is normal for my godsister to visit my home to pay New Year's greetings during the Spring Festival.

But on the surface he was bringing rain water, but in fact, it was him, the hidden son-in-law, who came to visit, so he couldn't be shabby.

He Lin put the New Year gifts in the bicycle bag in advance, including 4 bottles of Taiwan, 10 kilograms of pork, and 10 kilograms of mutton, and also put a big bag of apples on the rear rack of Yu Shui's bicycle.

When they arrived at Yu's house, He Lin and Yu Shui first wished a happy new year to Yu Li's parents, and then there was a round of greeting.

Yu's parents were also very happy to see He Lin and his sister coming.

Her family had two daughters and lacked a boy. She also knew He Lin's family situation and thought it would be great if she could match He Lin with her daughters.

"Xiao Lin, next time you come to our house, don't bring anything with you. You bring so many things with you, how can we accept them?"

"Auntie, please accept it without worry. This is a token of my and Yu Shui's love for you."

Yu's mother looked at the New Year gifts prepared by He Lin and felt that they didn't look like in-laws at all.

Even the new son-in-law didn't bring so much. The meat was big, and the wine cost seven or eight yuan a bottle. It was really luxurious.

Yu Haitang was not polite at all and just kept bragging to her own mother.

"Mom, just accept it. This is just a small gift for my brother Lin. You don't know how powerful he is in the factory. I heard from Section Chief Wei that he is the youngest section-level cadre in the steel mill and a technical genius valued by the Ministry of Industry."

"This child is heartless. Don't talk nonsense about Xiao Lin outside. You are young and don't know the importance of it. Don't delay Xiao Lin's important matter."

"It's okay. Section Chief Wei is the head of the Propaganda Department. He will be Haitang's direct supervisor in the future. I have a good relationship with him, and I will take care of Haitang when she goes to work."

"Haitang, look, your brother has already arranged work for you, but you're still so troublesome. After the New Year is over and you've dealt with school matters, go to work as soon as possible."

When talking about Yu Haitang's work, Yu's mother was also very satisfied.

Everyone affectionately treats He Lin as Haitang's brother. Actually, this is not wrong. From Yu Shui and Yu Li's perspective, He Lin is Haitang's brother.

With Yu's mother's suppression, Xiao Haitang couldn't make any waves. She was taught a lesson and couldn't say a word. She could only take the opportunity when Yu's mother turned around to make a show of force towards He Lin.

Yu Li knew that He Lin must have other arrangements on the first day of the new year, so she sent He Lin out without letting him spend too much time at home.

"Brother Lin, are you going to Xiaoxue's house?"

"Well, let's go find Xiaoxue first, and then go to the big boss's house. We also have to go to Director Yang's and Director Li's houses. Oh, and Director Wang's house. I'm afraid it's too late to go there in the morning. Can you accompany me tonight?"

He Lin must have gone to Director Wang to ask for a permanent position, so Yu Li happily agreed.

Yang Zhenzhong's hometown is not in Beijing, so his home is rather deserted during the Chinese New Year. He Lin's arrival makes it a little more lively.

It’s just that when He Lin came, he left Yu Shui at Yu’s house, which made the old naughty boy a little disappointed. Otherwise, he would have had more chess playing partners.

"Why don't you bring your sister here?"

"Children love to play. As soon as the holiday comes, they go out and run around with their classmates."

What He Lin said was right. Yu Shui did go to play with Haitang.

"Remember, kid, bring me some rain water next time you come over, or I won't let you into the house."

The old naughty boy's words made He Lin laugh and cry. It turned out that I, a genius doctor who runs around for you every day and treats your illnesses with acupuncture, was no match for this little girl.

Even Yang Xue couldn't stand it anymore. She thought her father was too unreasonable.

"Dad, you really love Yu Shui. She has a classmate who also learned Go from Brother Lin. Do you want to bring her to you as a sparring partner?"

Yang Xue was naturally talking about Yu Haitang, but who knew that the old naughty boy actually disagreed.

"You think I just want to play chess with a little kid? Don't you think about the fact that she has no parents in Beijing and only has a brother who came to visit us? How lonely she must be at home during the New Year."

He Lin didn't expect that the old naughty boy would have such a thought. He was very moved and began to respect Yang Zhenzhong.

"Thank you, Uncle Yang. If Yu Shui knew your thoughts, she would definitely be happy."

"Come on, don't tell her about this. Just tell her that the old man wants to play chess with her. Stop wasting time and go to Old Wang to wish him a happy new year."

When He Lin arrived at the big leader's house, he found that it was not as bustling as he had imagined, but rather extremely deserted. This was because the big leader's children all worked in other places and they were strict with themselves and did not allow other people to come to pay New Year's greetings.

He Lin was accompanied by Yang Xue, which was a special case. He didn't prepare any decent New Year gifts. He just picked up a bag of tea produced in the space. The gift was small but the sentiment was great.

"Xiao Lin, I'm very happy that you and Xiao Xue are here. This is not because of Lao Yang, but because I watched Xiao Xue grow up. You are also special. You are not as keen on power as others. Everyone knows the principle of accumulating strength and then making a breakthrough, but how many people can really do it?"

"Uncle Wang, you are overpraising me. Actually, I am still not very knowledgeable and I just want to do my technical work well."

"You are right if you really have this idea. Only by being down-to-earth can you reach the end. The assembly line operation you are working on will be piloted in the steel mill after the New Year. By then, you will have to shoulder the responsibility. If you can make this thing well, it will be a major event that benefits the country and the people."

"Don't worry, I will do my best to get the job done."

The big boss was also very happy to see He Lin full of confidence. It was rare to have such an outstanding young man, so he had to support him.

Before leaving, the big boss asked his wife to prepare a bag of candy and insisted that He Lin accept it, and then he sent He Lin and Yang Xue out.
