Siheyuan: From Being Called Shazhu

After the fun, of course, it’s time to get down to business.

But when it came to business, Master Sun, Old Wang and Old Qian started to shirk responsibility, which was unusual for them.

"You said."

"No, Zhuzi is your apprentice, you say."

"Forget it, I won't tell you. Let Old Qiantou tell you."

"Why should I say that? I won't say anything. You, the serious master, should say it."

He Yuzhu was stunned by this.

What does this have to do with anything? Why are you still trying to pass the buck?

"Cough cough."

He Yuzhu cleared his throat.

"Master, why don't you just say it."

"Look, Zhuzi has told you to speak, so don't refuse and speak now."

"That's right. Um, I'm going out for a walk. I ate too much."

Having said that, Old Qiantou stood up and was about to walk out.

"Oh, yes, old Qiantou, I'll go too."

Well, Old Wang also stood up and walked out with Old Qian.

But no matter how you look at it, it seems like these two old guys are "fleeing in panic."

After Old Wang and Old Qian closed the door heavily.

"Oh~~~"

Master Sun first sighed heavily, and then took several puffs from his pipe until there was no spark left in the pipe. Only then did Master Sun speak.

"Zhu Zi, He Daqing came back last year."

"Well, I'm back, so what?"

Originally, He Yuzhu, who hadn't reacted yet, took over the conversation.

But He Yuzhu, who finally reacted, was stunned.

"No, who did you say is back?"

To be honest, He Yuzhu's feelings towards He Daqing are actually quite complicated.

Don’t think that when He Daqing left, He Yuzhu even shed tears because he couldn’t let him go.

But at that time, He Yuzhu could only regard He Daqing as a substitute for his father who had just passed away a few days ago.

Yes, He Yuzhu himself knows that "father" is irreplaceable.

However, He Yuzhu was really lost in He Daqing's care for him again and again over the past three years.

"Dependent on each other" does not only refer to Jordan Chan and Cherrie Ying.

It can also refer to He Yuzhu and his father in later generations.

That kind of feeling really can't be let go of by traveling through time and space once.

But later, with He Daqing running away, He Yuzhu gradually got used to it.

After all, as the lyrics say, let’s go, let’s go, people have to learn to grow up on their own, don’t they?

Especially in the last decade or so since 65, He Daqing suddenly lost contact.

Although He Daqing also said in his last letter that he was worried that the beginning of the plot would affect He Yuzhu and He Yushui.

However, we haven't seen each other for thirty years, and half of that time we had no contact at all.

Any feelings should fade away.

Even if it's blood relationship.

So, before Master Sun said "He Daqing" again, He Yuzhu spoke very calmly.

"Oh, you're back. Are you okay? That's good."

"Hmm? Aren't you excited?"

Master Sun had never expected that He Yuzhu would have such emotions.

After he came back from He Daqing, he had considered He Yuzhu's reaction.

It is possible to be excited or irritable.

But I didn't expect He Yuzhu to be so calm.

Looking at Master Sun's stunned expression, He Yuzhu smiled.

"My Master, if he comes back, then he comes back. Why should I be so excited?"

As he spoke, He Yuzhu began his pretentious and exaggerated performance.

"Oh, I'm so excited. I finally have a father."

After saying that, He Yuzhu looked at Master Sun.

"Master, I'm not a child. I don't have to go to my father whenever I have nothing to do. I'm 47 years old this year and I'm almost a grandfather. What else can make me excited?"

"Too."

Master Sun still agreed with He Yuzhu's reason.

After knocking the pipe in his hand, refilling it, and taking a few puffs, Master Sun spoke.

"What are you going to do with the pillar?"

"How to do?"

He Yuzhu had thought about this issue a few years ago.

So at this time, I don’t feel weak at all.

"What can I do? I'll just take care of him. After all, he's my father after all. Now that he's back, I don't need him any more, so I'll just take care of him. If I have time, I'll go back to see him every now and then. It's also what a son should do, taking care of his father in his old age and seeing him to the end of his life, that's all."

As he spoke, He Yuzhu leaned back on the sofa and lit a cigarette.

Looking at He Yuzhu's expression, Master Sun couldn't help but ask.

"So you're not moving away?"

Looking at Master Sun's cautious look, He Yuzhu couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

So, He Yuzhu began to adjust the atmosphere.

"I'm so sad. After so many years, my master is going to kick me out. Oh my God, this is so unfair."

As he spoke, He Yuzhu simply started howling with thunder but no rain.

Not to mention, at this time, He Yuzhu might only have Jia Zhang, who called him "Old Jia", to come and "fight" with him.

Watching He Yuzhu's performance, Master Sun was not dissatisfied. Instead, he sat next to He Yuzhu with satisfaction and patted He Yuzhu's arm.

"You, day by day, are about to become a grandfather, but you still act like a child."

"Hehe~~~"

Seeing Master Sun smile, He Yuzhu stopped the performance.

However, in his heart, He Yuzhu couldn't help but complain about Yi Zhonghai.

Look, this is the best way to train successors, or to select elderly people to take care of them - to exchange heart for heart.

If it were in a TV drama, if Yi Zhonghai treated He Yuzhu the same way as Master Sun and his three brothers treated He Yuzhu, no, even if it was one-tenth as much, there wouldn't be so many people scolding Yi Zhonghai.

Now that both parties have spoken out and know what the other party means, there is nothing to hide in the next conversation.

Moreover, He Yuzhu is now a little worried about his sister.

You have to know that when He Daqing left, the person who was hurt the most was not He Yuzhu, but He Yushui.

At that time, He Yushui was only 7 years old and had just begun to understand and remember things.

Moreover, ever since he could remember, Xiao Yushui had always been close to He Daqing, and was inseparable from him.

One can imagine how sad He Yushui was at that time.

He Yuzhu simply took the initiative to speak.

"By the way, Master, He...he is back, does Xiaoshui know?"

"Yeah. I know."

Master Sun nodded.

"Last year, when you... He Daqing came back, the first person you contacted was Xiaoshui. It was Xiaoshui who told us. Later, I sent a car to pick He Daqing up from the train station. He stayed at my place for a few days before moving back to the courtyard."

"How many days did he stay here?"

He Yuzhu didn't know what to say at this time.

"So, my wife and children saw him last year when I was away?"

"Well, he only stayed for a few days for his grandchildren."

Master Sun then gave another explanation.

"At that time, Xiaowen was assigned to a company and didn't go home. I asked He Daqing to stay here for a few days so that he could see his eldest grandson."

He Yuzhu originally had nothing to say about He Daqing.

Now that we know He Yushui is fine, there is even less topic to talk about with He Yuzhu.

I could only follow what Master Sun said.

"Then he didn't say anything about giving his grandchildren a present or anything?"

"I gave it, why didn't you give it?"

When talking about the meeting gift, Master Sun covered his head, looking helpless.

"Alas~~ Old He, as soon as we met, he gave Xiao Wu a pair of walnuts, saying that he grew them himself when he was in Xingtai. Then he gave your wife a string of stars and moons, but the Buddha head was an old jadeite plaque, and he said it was an old item from the Imperial Household Department. The one for Xiao Shuang was also okay, a nanmu hairpin with a gold-threaded head."

"Hiss~~~~"

He Yuzhu took a breath of cold air.

"He's been doing pretty well these years."

If it is true as He Daqing said, no matter whether it is the old jadeite that came out of the Imperial Household Department or the gold-threaded nanmu hairpin, although today's cultural relics and antiques are not as valuable as those in later generations that are easily worth tens of thousands, they must be said to be expensive.

"So what did he give to Xiaoshui's family?"

He Yuzhu asked again, a little unsure.

"The one for Xiaomin is an old red sandalwood bracelet with an old Xiuyan jade gourd in the middle. The one for Xiaofang is a pair of gold earrings."

Well, now it’s confirmed that He Daqing has been doing quite well over the years.

But Master Sun hasn't finished speaking yet.

"Do you know what he gave Xiao He Wen?"

"What was it?"

He Yuzhu was a little afraid to think about it.

Since the second and third sons, as well as the grandsons and granddaughters, can be treated so well, then little He Wen, as the eldest grandson in the "old son and grandson, the old lady's eyes", must not be bad, right?

Wait, He Yuzhu suddenly felt something was wrong.

But when He Yuzhu couldn't remember what was wrong, Master Sun spoke.

"Old He gave Little He Wen a pure gold ring with a glass-type jadeite on the top. He also said that he would pay for the hardware for Little He Wen's wedding. Of course, the same goes for Little He Wu and Xiao Min."

After Master Sun finished speaking, He Yuzhu realized something was wrong.

"That's not right, Master. Even if he likes his eldest grandson so much, he can't be so partial to him. Ah, the eldest and the others were given either gold or jade, but why was it that the second son, Xiao Hewu, was only given a pair of walnuts? And they were new ones?"

"How could that be possible? Didn't you hear me say we just met?"

As he spoke, Master Sun touched his chin.

"It's no wonder that the walnuts grown by Lao He are really good. Not only are they oily, but they are also big in size. Moreover, the pairs they are matched with are extremely suitable."

After saying that, Master Sun stood up, took out a pair of shiny, reddish walnuts from the inner room, and placed them on the coffee table.

"Look, this is the pair that Lao He gave me."

He Yuzhu was curious and was about to pick it up.

With a "snap", he was slapped down by Master Sun.

"Go, have you washed your hands before you take it? I worked so hard to raise this, and you're ruining it. If you want to play, go play your own."

"I have it too?"

He Yuzhu touched his nose awkwardly.

"Well, you have one too. I've mentioned that this thing is a pair for each person. How could you not have one?"

As he spoke, Master Sun began to brush the walnuts with his gloved hands with great interest.

"You didn't say one person per pair."

He Yuzhu muttered softly before asking again:

"Master, you haven't told me what you're giving to Xiao He Wu?"

"Oh? Didn't I tell you? It doesn't matter if I tell you now. What I gave to Xiao Wu is an old jade ring."

After Master Sun finished speaking, he continued brushing the walnuts without even raising his head.

But He Yuzhu on the side began to fall into deep doubt.

He was a little suspicious whether He Daqing had also traveled through time.

Otherwise, I haven't heard that He Daqing in the TV series has a hobby of collecting antiques.

Hiss~~~~

Could it be that He Daqing got the wrong number?

Is this "Uncle Guan", the descendant of "Nine Gates Commander"?

Or has he become the "Big Gold Teeth" in the TV version of "Ghost Blows Out the Light: Mojin: The Lost Tomb" which has always been heard of but never broadcast?

do not care.

He Yuzhu made the decision.

Anyway, no matter what, He Daqing is the "real father" of this He Yuzhu's body. When the time comes, I must go back to see him.

You’ll know it at a glance.

that's it.

On one side, there was the sound of He Yuzhu snoring as he fell asleep on the sofa without realizing it.

On one side, Master Sun was brushing walnuts carefully, making a "swish, swish" sound.

For a moment, in the living room, the two voices intertwined, and it was quite harmonious.

"Old Sun, how is it?"

Old Wang and Old Qian, who had returned at some unknown time, looked at the sleeping He Yuzhu and asked in a low voice.

"Yeah, it's okay, just as usual."

Master Sun's voice was just as soft, but in the hearts of Old Wang and Old Qian, it sounded like a thunderclap.

"That's good, that's good. I was just afraid that this guy would run back immediately, and then..."

Old Wang was in deep thought, and his eyes became red as he spoke.

But it’s different with Lao Qiantou.

Even though he can play with Old Wang all his life, he is a carefree person.

"I'm different from you. I'm afraid that this kid will get upset after hearing the letter. After all, it was the same back then..."

"Okay, it's all in the past, let's not talk about it anymore."

In the end, it was Master Sun who sighed and said, "The final decision has been made."

He Yuzhu didn't know how long he had slept.

Don't think he's just sleeping on the sofa.

However, this was also the most sound sleep he had had in the past six months.

When He Yuzhu opened his eyes, he saw a pair of big watery eyes in front of him.

"Dad, I miss you so much."

Before He Yuzhu could react and was about to slap him, the owner of the big watery eyes - He Wushuang - suddenly pounced on him.

Fortunately, He Yuzhu reacted quickly.

The palm that had slapped out regained its strength and remained still in the air.

From other people's perspective, it looked like He Yuzhu was pushing Xiaoshuang's head with his hand, preventing her from hugging him.

Moreover, He Yuzhu also said, "Oh, you're a grown-up girl now, you can't act like a child." This further confirmed that He Yuzhu was trying to stop Xiaoshuang from hugging her.

"No~~~~"

Xiaoshuang pouted.

Well, the show is over, so He Yuzhu won’t pretend anymore.

He suddenly opened his arms and held Xiaoshuang in his arms.

"My daughter~~~"

If it is said that He Yuzhu "favors sons over daughters", it is absolutely not nonsense.

Because, all the harsh words are reserved for sons.

Girl, that is for pampering!!!
