Siheyuan: Crossing the two worlds, if you don't obey, you will be a beast

Lou's father and mother stood there quietly, their eyes sparkling with gratification, as if their gaze could penetrate the mist of time and reach the depths of their children's hearts. They carefully looked at the pair of children in front of them who were as loving as twin lotus flowers, and their hearts seemed to be slowly soaked by a warm current, and endless warmth surged in their hearts like a tide.

Watching the maturity gradually emerging on the children's faces, it is the calmness that has settled down after going through the baptism of wind and rain, and the confident look is like the brightest star in the night sky, shining brightly. This maturity and confidence is undoubtedly a precious gift carefully carved by the magical sculptor of time and bestowed on them. It witnesses every bit of the children's journey and their transformation from immaturity to perseverance.

They deeply understand that children are no longer the weak and helpless ones who need their careful care at all times. Today's children, with their own dreams and firm steps, embark on their own journey of life, pursuing the unattainable but extremely brilliant light of ideals.

As parents, they choose to stand quietly behind their children in a silent but profound way, like an unshakable mountain, giving their children the most stable and solid support. Their sincere encouragement turns into invisible power, which continuously injects into the hearts of their children, making them full of motivation on the road ahead.

No matter how difficult and arduous the children are, or how great and daunting the challenges they face, they will stay by their side unwaveringly, like a beacon that never goes out, illuminating the darkness ahead for the children, cheering for them, and giving them enough courage to boldly pursue the happiness they desire deep in their hearts. In their minds, the happiness of the children is the greatest comfort in their lives, the most precious treasure in their lives, and it is worth their all to protect and fulfill.

Finally, after a long half month, the old but familiar train slowly drove back to the land of their hometown. Li Dongyu and Lou Xiaoe on the train were both excited and nervous about arriving home. They missed their hometown and finally arrived at the Sijiucheng Railway Station, which carried countless memories.

Since Li Dongyu had returned without informing anyone, no one expected him to come back, and naturally no one came to pick him up at the station. In this way, the two walked out of the station together, somewhat helplessly but tacitly, and then went straight to a small restaurant nearby. The restaurant was filled with a strong smell of fireworks. They ordered a steaming hot mutton hot pot. The delicious taste instantly spread on the tip of the tongue, as if dispelling the fatigue along the way. After eating the hot pot, they walked directly to the courtyard full of memories.

When they stepped into the courtyard, it happened to be Sunday. The neighbors who were familiar with each other on weekdays were attracted by the sudden appearance. Everyone looked up with surprise in their eyes, because they had not seen Li Dongyu and Lou Xiaoe for three months. For a moment, everyone was suspicious, and all kinds of speculations emerged in their minds, wondering if the two had encountered any troubles, and even worried whether they had chosen to run away.

Now, the two who had disappeared for more than three months suddenly appeared in front of everyone, how could they not attract everyone's high attention and strong curiosity? At this time, Yan Bugui, who usually loves to meddle in other people's business, seemed to feel that he had the responsibility to solve this mystery. He did not hesitate to represent everyone and asked with a puzzled face: "Dongyu and Xiao'e, where have you two been in the past three months? How could you disappear without a trace so quietly? If someone from the factory said that you went out to work, we would really think that you took your wife and ran away!" As he spoke, he stroked his chin with his hand, his eyes flashing with an inquiring light, as if he wanted to find the answer from the other person's expression. The people around him also gathered quietly, staring at Li Dongyu and Lou Xiao'e, waiting for their explanation.

Li Dongyu couldn't help but sigh slightly when he heard what Yan Bugui said. He knew the realities of this era very well. Although he felt that the words were not pleasant to hear, he had to admit their truth. He then slowly said, "Hey, it's really nothing big. It's just some temporary official business arranged by the factory. I just took this opportunity to take Xiao'e out for a walk, so that she can also see the outside world and broaden her horizons." As he said that, he gently patted Lou Xiao'e, who was carrying a lot of bags beside him, with tenderness and pampering in his eyes. Then, he turned his head and waved to Yan Bugui and the others standing aside, and said in a calm tone, "You all, go and do your own things. Don't crowd here and waste everyone's time." After that, he led Lou Xiao'e away, leaving a group of stunned people in place.

At this time, Yan Bugui just came back to his senses from his previous thoughts. He suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to talk to Li Dongyu about business! These days, Jia Zhang, who was sent home by the government to recuperate with a lame leg and disability, always brought Banggeng to the Li family to make trouble from time to time. How could he forget such an important thing? He missed a great opportunity to inform Director Li and ask for credit and reward. This made him feel as uncomfortable as being bitten by millions of ants. He couldn't help but beat his chest hard, and then sighed helplessly, dragged his heavy steps and slowly walked back home, lying on the bed, trying to use sleep to soothe the loss and regret in his heart.

When Li Dongyu brought Lou Xiao'e to the backyard, he saw Jia Zhangshi and Banggeng confronting Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru.

In the eyes of the neighbors, Jia Zhang was a shrewd, arrogant, cunning and mean person. Now she appeared here, which made Li Dongyu full of doubts and confusion. He thought that according to common sense, Jia Zhang should be spending her one-year reform time in the detention center, but her sudden appearance was like a bolt from the blue, hitting his heart, making him a little confused for a while.

There were thousands of thoughts in his mind, and all kinds of questions surged like the tide. What was the reason for her to be released from the detention center early? Or was there some unknown secret hidden in it? Just as he was full of doubts, the crisp shout of his little niece Yaya came from not far away.

Yaya is the only child of Li Dongyu's eldest sister and has a deep relationship with them. At this moment, her childish voice shouted directly in the direction of Li Dongyu and Lou Xiao'e: "Uncle and aunt, you two are back!" The joy and expectation revealed in that voice seemed to dispel the haze in one's heart.
