Siheyuan: All the incense in the family is counting on you

From that time on, Li Bowen left a very deep impression in He Yushui's heart.

He Yuzhu is a carefree person at home and has no experience in taking care of children, let alone a girl, so it is not normal for He Yushui to have a good impression of Li Bowen.

After being admitted to a technical secondary school, He Yushui lived in the school dormitory and returned to the courtyard less frequently. However, her feelings for Li Bowen did not fade because she came back less often. Instead, they became stronger.

Now that she has graduated, when she heard the news that Li Bowen was going on a blind date, He Yushui decided that she could not wait any longer and that she should speak out boldly and fight for her own happiness, regardless of any gossip or nonsense.

Now that Li Bowen has not completely rejected her and is still a little hesitant, He Yushui knows that she has a chance: "This is the second time you've said you've considered it. Anyway, I've made up my mind. I'll give you three days. If you reject me this time, I'll leave immediately."

This isn't something you can consider; it's clearly an ultimatum, something that requires you to prepare yourself mentally.

Li Bowen didn't think it was impossible, but it was mainly because of the saying, "It's hard to start with people from the same village who are too familiar with each other." What's more, there is also He Yuzhu in the middle. If he agrees to He Yushui, how can he get along with He Yuzhu in the future!

It’s better to refuse.

"Okay, I understand Yu Shui. Don't worry, I will think about it carefully in the next few days!" Li Bowen nodded.

He Yushui nodded happily, stood on tiptoe and kissed Li Bowen on the face, then pushed him out the door: "Go back to the room, I want to sleep!"

Covering his face, Li Bowen returned to the house, sat on the chair, sighed, took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and took two deep puffs.

"How is it? Have you talked it out with Yu Shui?" He Yuzhu took the picture book away from his face.

"Aren't you asleep?"

"Do you think I can sleep? Come on, have you two made it clear?"

"Ah!" Li Bowen sighed again: "It's said that we have made it clear, but Yu Shui said that she would rather stay single for the rest of her life and follow me. If I don't want her, she will become a nun. What do you think we should do?"

"I just...this dead girl, I'll go find her!" He Yuzhu jumped up from the bed.

Li Bowen waved his hand: "Okay, sit down. What's the point? You want to let the whole hospital know! Is Yu Shui still alive?"

"Then what do you say we should do? This girl is so infuriating!"

"Let's wait a couple of days before talking about it. She asked me to think about it for three days. I'll ask Auntie to persuade her. You can also talk to her when you have time in the next two days! You have to be calm!"

He Yuzhu really had no other choice. Do you blame Li Bowen for this? It is somewhat related, but not big. The root of the problem lies with his sister. The only way to solve the problem is to convince her and make her give up this idea.

"If you don't have time, you should just get the marriage certificate with Yu Li. After that, Yu Shui might give up the idea!" He Yuzhu came up with this idea after a long time.

Li Bowen nodded. This was a solution that he could try. "Okay, I'll go talk to Yu Li tomorrow. If we can get the certificate in the next two days, I hope Yu Shui can think it through."

"Well, let's do it!"

The next morning, Li Bowen got up early, went home and talked to the old lady, asking her to take some time to talk to Yu Shui and see if he could persuade her. Then he rode his bike to work, but he did not notice the old lady's expression.

That is very meaningful. In the old lady's mind, more branches mean more leaves. If you push away such a good thing, what else can you do but be mentally ill?

After Li Bowen left, the old lady kept staring at the door. When she saw He Yushui coming out, she called out, "Yushui, are you going to work?"

"Yes, Auntie, I have to catch the bus!"

"Are you in a hurry? If not, I want to talk to you."

He Yushui stopped and walked over: "It's okay, it's okay to delay for a few minutes."

The two entered the house, and the old lady took He Yushui's hand and said, "I heard from my Xiaowen that you like him? Are you willing to follow him without asking for anything?"

"Auntie, did Brother Bowen ask you to come and persuade me?"

"Well, your brother Bowen just told me to persuade you!"

He Yushui interrupted before she finished listening, "Auntie, you don't need to say anything more. I have made up my mind. If Brother Bowen doesn't want me, then I will become a nun. I mean what I say."

"Silly girl, that's not what I meant!"

"Who are you?" He Yushui looked confused.

"You also know the situation in our family, and you were raised by Auntie, you are a good child, Auntie likes you! I wish there were more people to love Bowen, how could I stop you?"

"Really?" He Yushui was surprised.

"Of course it's true, but we have to think of a way. We can't just force it, right?"

"Well, ma'am, what do you say we should do?"

The old lady thought about it and didn’t have any good ideas at the moment: “Well, you go to work first, and I’ll think about it carefully today. When you come back in the evening, you can come over and we’ll discuss it carefully!”

"Okay, Auntie, I'll come over in the evening!" He Yushui hugged the Auntie excitedly and walked away with brisk steps.

When Li Bowen arrived at the factory and entered the office, someone came over and patted him on the shoulder to congratulate him.

"What's the matter? Why are you so enthusiastic?" Li Bowen was confused.

Lin Dong also came over and patted Li Bowen on the shoulder: "Bowen, our relationship is close enough, right?"

"Of course you have to," Li Bowen nodded.

"Then you have to protect me if anything happens in the future!"

Li Bowen was even more confused: "No, what's wrong with Brother Lin? Why are you acting so weird today?"

"Didn't you see the bulletin board at the door?" Lin Dong asked in surprise.

"Why should I look at that? I'm not used to it."

Lin Dong suddenly realized, "No wonder, it seems you really don't know that the reward for your assistance in uncovering the enemy's spies has come down, and the factory has promoted you to deputy chief of our procurement department. It's all posted on the bulletin board."

"Is this true?" Li Bowen's face was full of surprise. Is there such a thing? Is there such a high reward?

I am only a level 7 clerk now, which is 7 levels away from the deputy section chief. And the deputy section chief is a full-fledged cadre.

"How can this be false?"

As the two were talking, they saw Section Chief Gao walk into the office: "Bowen, you're here at the right time. Come with me to the Logistics Office. Director Li wants to see you!"

"Oh, okay!" Then he turned to Lin Dong and said, "Brother Lin, I'll go first, and we'll talk when I come back."

Following Chief Gao to Li Huaide's office, the two knocked on the door and went in.

Li Huaide stood up enthusiastically, walked around the desk and approached the two men, patting Li Bowen on the shoulder: "Little Li, good job, you gave our logistics director face, so I suggested to the factory director that you be transferred to a cadre position, starting as a deputy section chief, and become your deputy to Section Chief Gao. Don't complain about your low position!"

Li Bowen was a little flattered and said, "Director, I can hardly believe what you said. I didn't really help in catching the enemy spies, but I was promoted a lot this time."
