Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

Hou Jiacheng's face was gloomy, with anger surging in his chest. He paced back and forth anxiously in the spacious living room.

After a long time, Huang Wu carefully observed Hou Jiacheng's expression and saw that the anger on his face seemed to have subsided a little.

He then spoke softly tentatively: "Master, please don't be angry. What are your plans next?"

Hou Jiacheng stopped walking after hearing this and snorted coldly, "Did the guy surnamed He go directly to the Chen family?"

As he spoke, he sat down on the chair, picked up a cup of herbal tea and drank it in one gulp, as if to quench the anger in his heart.

Huang Wu bowed slightly, with a flattering smile on his face: "Master, they didn't go to the Chen family, but to the Zhang family of Suxuan Hall."

"Huh?" Hou Jiacheng raised his head suddenly, his face full of confusion, "How are they related to the Zhang family?"

Huang Wu quickly told the news he had heard: "Master, I asked the clerk at the pharmacy and he said that the third master of the Zhang family has returned from Sijiu City."

Hearing this, Hou Jiacheng frowned and his fingers tapped on the table unconsciously, making a "thump thump" sound.

He thought to himself that it seemed that the third master of the Zhang family had a close relationship with He Yuzhu, so he moved directly into the Zhang family when he arrived in Suzhou City.

Thinking of the last small conflict in Sijiu City, he began to wonder whether he should find an opportunity to teach He Yuzhu a lesson in Suzhou, his own territory.

But this time the Zhang family is involved. I don’t know what the relationship between He Yuzhu and the Zhang family is, so it’s hard to decide for now.

After all, after the Zhang family left Suzhou, the second son of the seventh master of the Zhang family joined the army directly. Now that the Zhang family has such a momentum, it is inseparable from the help of Zhang Zhenkun.

After thinking for a moment, Hou Jiacheng looked up at Huang Wu, his eyes revealing a bit of determination: "You continue to stake out the Chen family tomorrow and see where they will go."

"Hmm? Okay, young master." Huang Wu looked at Hou Jiacheng in surprise. He thought that Hou Jiacheng would immediately give the order to take action since he was so angry.

It can be seen that Hou Jiacheng has regained his composure at this time. He just drinks tea and looks at himself. He knows in his heart that the young master's thoughts are not that simple.

"That's the worst option."

Hou Jiacheng seemed to see through Huang Wu's thoughts and spoke slowly, "The current situation is becoming more and more serious. We should try not to take action if we can. What's more, this time the Zhang family is involved."

Huang Wu immediately pretended to be terrified, lowered his head and replied respectfully: "Master, I will follow your instructions. If you point east, I will never go west."

"Okay, go prepare some gifts for me. I'll visit Uncle Chen tomorrow." Hou Jiacheng waved his hand, interrupting his flattery.

Huang Wu bowed and responded, then turned and walked out. He had just taken a few steps when Hou Jiacheng shouted from behind: "Wait a minute."

Huang Wu immediately turned around and walked back, smiling and asking, "Master, do you have any other instructions?"

"This is a reward for you. Go down and prepare it!" Hou Jiacheng took out a roll of money from his pocket and threw it to Huang Wu without even looking at it.

Huang Wu smiled brightly when he saw the money in his hand. He reached out and took it steadily. He held it tightly in his hand and bowed: "Thank you for the reward, young master! I will prepare it now!"

After he said that, he bowed and quickly left the living room.

The next morning, when the sunlight penetrated the window lattice, He Yuzhu opened his eyes from the soft bed, and the gorgeous bed curtains swayed gently, coming into view.

He sat up suddenly, and his thoughts quickly returned to reality from his dream.

At this moment, he was far away from the familiar Sijiu City and was in Suzhou City, thousands of miles away.

When I opened the door, the cool breeze of the early morning blew in my face with a hint of freshness and coolness.

He Yuzhu took a deep breath, looked at the picturesque courtyard in front of him, and felt an inexplicable joy in his heart.

He walked into the yard, stood in an open space, and prepared to start his daily morning exercise.

There was a creaking sound, and the door next to the room where He Yuzhu was sleeping opened.

With a creak, the door of the next room opened and Yu Shui walked out, rubbing her sleepy eyes.

This was the first time she slept alone. She fell asleep very late last night, but woke up early this morning.

When she saw He Yuzhu practicing boxing in the yard, she felt an inexplicable sense of security in her heart.

She put down her hand, straightened her short hair, and walked towards the yard.

She stood quietly not far from He Yuzhu, following his fist shadow with her eyes, and began her morning exercises.

The sun gradually filled the courtyard, and the morning dew quietly evaporated in the warm light.

At this time, the courtyard door was gently pushed open and Zhang Xingbang walked in from outside.

He looked up and saw He Yuzhu and Yu Shui exercising in the yard, and a friendly smile appeared on his face.

The exercise of He Yuzhu and his sister was almost over. When they heard the noise, they stopped and turned to look towards the gate of the courtyard.

"Junior Master, Junior Master, you two are exercising so early!" When Zhang Xingbang saw them stop, he strode forward and greeted them warmly.

He Yuzhu smiled and cupped his hands: "You are too polite, let's just talk about our own things. I am much younger than you."

When Yu Shui heard his name, she was overjoyed.

Seeing He Yuzhu's politeness, Zhang Xingbang smiled and shook his head: "Etiquette cannot be abolished, not to mention that you are my third master's apprentice, this is not fake. Don't let me get scolded!"

"Oh, don't. Let's be casual in private." He Yuzhu was not used to such address, and a trace of awkwardness flashed across his face.

Zhang Xingbang saw that he was uncomfortable and knew that he was not being polite, so he laughed and changed the subject: "Third Grandpa, are you usually awake at this time?"

"It's usually around this time. He must be too tired these days. Let him rest more." He Yuzhu shook his head, a trace of worry flashing across his face.

Zhang Xingbang nodded in agreement, "Then come with me to eat. I came here to call you. Since Third Grandpa wants to rest, I will ask him to leave some for you."

"Thank you for your trouble!" He Yuzhu bowed his hands in thanks, "Let us go back and wash up, and we'll be here soon."

Zhang Xingbang bowed in return: "Okay, please help yourself."

After enjoying a sumptuous breakfast at the Zhang family, He Yuzhu got on the car arranged by the Zhang family and drove towards the Chen family, ready to pick up Chen Xueru to visit.

The car stopped steadily in front of the Chen family's gate. He Yuzhu saw Chen Xueru waiting on the roadside through the car window.

She was wearing an elegant long dress and looked graceful.

He Yuzhu couldn't wait to open the car door and strode towards Chen Xueru: "Xueru, let's go!"

"Here you are." Chen Xueru looked at He Yuzhu getting off the car, a hint of joy flashing in her eyes. She trotted over and gave He Yuzhu a light hug.

The two walked towards the car hand in hand. He Yuzhu waved to Feng Liping who was standing beside them, and took Chen Xueru into the car.

The car started slowly and drove towards its destination.
