Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

At this time, in the reception room in the courtyard, Chen Boting turned his head and looked at Su Wan who was sitting elegantly, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

"We'll be able to meet people soon. Let's see what our daughter thinks."

Su Wan met his gaze, smiled gently, and covered her red lips lightly: "Xiao Ru picked it for herself, can her taste be worse than yours?"

After hearing this, Chen Boting couldn't help but laugh, but didn't answer. He just moved his gaze outside the hall and looked at the courtyard gate from afar.

The living room fell into silence for a while, with only the aroma of tea slowly drifting in the air.

After a while, Su Wan noticed the change in Chen Boting's expression. She felt something in her heart and turned to look at the gate.

Sure enough, I saw his doorman leading three people towards me. It seemed that they were the people who came to visit today.

Chen Boting suddenly stood up and walked out of the hall with a strange look on his face.

Although Su Wan didn't know what happened, she immediately stood up and followed Chen Boting.

"Director Bai, your visit today really brings honor to our humble place!" Chen Boting walked towards Bai Chao enthusiastically and greeted him.

Bai Chao looked at Chen Boting who was coming over, glanced at He Yuzhu, and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, I am just a foil today, I can't steal the show."

He Yuzhu also greeted Chen Boting at the right time to avoid embarrassment: "Junior He Yuzhu, meet uncle and aunt."

"Hello, uncle and aunt, I am Yu Shui." Yu Shui followed behind He Yuzhu and called out crisply.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Chen Boting's eyes, but it was quickly resolved by He Yuzhu's timely rescue. He had a good first impression of He Yuzhu.

"Well, hello. Everyone, please come in and sit down."

Su Wan also smiled and nodded to several people. Her gaze especially lingered on Yu Shui for a while, with admiration in her eyes.

She walked up to Yu Shui, squatted down and held her hand: "You are Yu Shui, Xiao Ru has told me this many times."

"Where is my sister? Why can't I see her?" Yu Shui said, standing on tiptoe and looking into the room with anticipation in her eyes.

Su Wan looked at Yu Shui's lovely appearance, smiled kindly, stood up and pulled her inside.

After everyone entered the living room and took their seats, servants served them tea and cakes.

Bai Chao took a sip of tea, put down the cup in his hand and looked at Chen Boting and Su Wan.

"Mr. Chen, Ms. Su, the people have been sent to us and have had their tea. I still have official business to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, he stood up, bowed to the two of them, and prepared to leave.

"Director Bai, don't you want to have lunch together before leaving?" Chen Boting quickly stood up and tried to persuade him to stay.

Bai Chao shook his head and refused firmly. He turned to look at He Yuzhu and said, "Xiao He, the commander asked me to tell you that you should go to his residence again after you have done your job."

"Okay, Brother Bai, please tell the leader that I will definitely go back and bring him some good things." He Yuzhu replied immediately.

Chen Boting watched Bai Chao disappear outside the courtyard gate, turned around and looked at He Yuzhu carefully, nodding secretly in his heart.

"Xiao He, you're pretty good!"

He Yuzhu smiled slightly and extended his hand to make a gesture of invitation: "Uncle, thank you for your praise. I just have some skills in cooking, and I am grateful for your care."

Chen Boting walked steadily back to his seat and sat down. Hearing He Yuzhu's humble words, he nodded slightly.

He thought that since He Yuzhu was valued by important figures, his character would not be a big problem, as those people all had sharp eyes and golden vision.

Chen Boting wanted to inquire about He Yuzhu's future plans, so he said, "Xiao He, you should sit down too. I wonder what your plans are for the future?"

He Yuzhu smiled and sat down. When he heard the question, his eyes met with Chen Boting's, and his expression revealed seriousness: "Uncle, to be honest, I don't have any long-term plans at the moment."

He paused and turned his gaze to Yu Shui. "I am still helping out in my master's restaurant. Yu Shui is still young, so we'll talk about it when she's older."

Su Wan listened at the side and couldn't help feeling a surge of pity in her heart. Her eyes moved between He Yuzhu and the rain.

She waved to Yu Shui and turned to look at Chen Boting: "Boting, you two can chat. I'll take Yu Shui to the backyard."

"Okay, you take Yu Shui with you!" Chen Boting smiled kindly at Yu Shui and nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, He Yuzhu stood up and walked the two out of the living room.

After they left, Chen Boting picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then slowly said, "Xiao He, you are still young now, so what you said makes sense. But what should we do in the future?"

He Yuzhu sat back in his seat, his expression firm: "Uncle, don't worry. Xueru likes running the silk shop, I will let her do what she likes."

Chen Boting frowned, listening to his rather loud tone, put down the teacup in his hand, and said in a serious tone: "Just because Chief Li appreciates you?"

He Yuzhu raised the corner of his mouth and shook his head slightly: "Uncle, you are joking. I am indeed very grateful for the commander's appreciation of me. But this is more because of the contribution I have made."

When Chen Boting heard that he was talking about the leader and not Leader Li, some confusion appeared on his face.

He Yuzhu noticed it and nodded: "I submitted a plan before, and it has already been implemented. If nothing unexpected happens, Xueru will be qualified to trade with Big Brother within this year."

"Are you serious?" Chen Boting showed a surprised expression on his face, "Xiao He, this is not a trivial matter, don't exaggerate."

Nowadays, most of the foreign trade with countries in the same camp is operated by the state, and private individuals rarely get involved.

He Yuzhu looked calm and nodded in confirmation: "Uncle, although the initial share may not be large. I believe that for the Chen family, this means more."

"Is your plan so effective?" Chen Boting hoped that this was true, but he was still skeptical.

He Yuzhu touched his nose and continued to explain: "This can earn foreign exchange. When the leader returns from the northern battlefield, we will know."

When Chen Boting heard the words "northern battlefield", shock flashed in his eyes. It turned out that Chief Li was not a leader who truly appreciated him.

Thinking of the people who could introduce He Yuzhu to Chief Li, there were only a few of them on the battlefield at the time, and they were all well-known bosses.

At this moment, he felt an inexplicable surge of joy in his heart, and was convinced that what He Yuzhu said could really come true.

"My dear nephew, you are really a hidden talent! My Xiaoru's vision is indeed more unique than mine!"

When He Yuzhu saw that he had changed his words, he knew that he had passed this test, and his smile became even brighter: "Uncle, I am lucky. Compared with you, I am still far behind."

"Haha, my dear nephew, let's have dinner together later." Chen Boting had completely dispelled his doubts at this moment. In comparison, He Yuzhu was better.
