Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

Lu Ming opened the gate and turned sideways to invite: "Hey, Zhuzi, you're here so early!"

He Yuzhu stepped over the threshold, pulled Chen Xueru, who was a little behind, over, and introduced her to him: "Brother Lu, this is my fiancée Chen Xueru."

Lu Ming's face was filled with a warm smile, and he nodded to her: "Comrade Chen Xueru, hello, I am Lu Ming, nice to meet you."

Chen Xueru was a little reserved. She bowed and saluted, and responded politely: "Hello, Brother Lu."

"Brother Lu, Brother Lu! What about me?" A crisp voice suddenly rang out, and the rain rushed into the door like a deer.

Her little face was full of anticipation. She looked up at Lu Ming with excitement in her eyes.

When Lu Ming saw Yu Shui wearing a dress, he was amused by her cute appearance and gave her a thumbs up: "Little Yu Shui, you are the cutest today!"

"Hehe~" Yu Shui was instantly delighted by the praise.

Lu Ming turned around, closed the gate, and waved, "Zhu Zi, let's go! My eldest sister is at home today."

"Really? That's what a coincidence." He Yuzhu replied and followed Lu Ming towards the main room.

Soon, several people arrived at the door of the living room.

Lu Ming leaned over and looked inside, and saw Sister Fu sitting on a chair in the living room with her child.

He quickly said, "Sister, Xiao He and his men are here."

Sister Fu heard the voice and looked up at him: "Come in! Why are you still standing there?"

Lu Ming smiled and walked into the living room first. He Yuzhu and the other two followed closely behind him.

Before Sister Fu could say anything, the little girl in her arms pointed at the rain and shouted excitedly: "Yi Yi, it looks good! It looks good!"

After saying that, she began to push her way down to the ground.

Looking at the cute appearance of the little girl, everyone couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"You little elf!" Sister Fu scolded with a smile and gently put her on the ground.

He Yuzhu gently patted Yu Shui's shoulder and motioned for her to go over: "Call Aunt Fu quickly!"

Yu Shui called out sweetly, "Hello, Aunt Fu! I'm Yu Shui."

After saying that, Yu Shui grabbed the little girl who was circling around her and touching her skirt.

Sister Fu looked at the two of them and said to Lu Ming, "Xiao Lu, take the two little girls to play in the yard!"

"Okay, big sister." Lu Ming responded, squatted down to coax the little girl, picked her up, and walked towards the yard in the rain.

Yu Shui looked back at He Yuzhu, and after seeing him nod in agreement, she happily followed him.

Sister Fu looked at Chen Xueru and waved gently: "Xiao Chen, come and sit down!"

Chen Xueru was a little nervous and subconsciously glanced at He Yuzhu beside her.

He Yuzhu smiled and consoled her: "Xueru, go sit down! Sister Fu is not a monster. She is an angel in white who saves the dying and heals the wounded!"

Hearing He Yuzhu's praise, Sister Fu smiled even more happily: "Xiao He, your wife will stay here with me to chat. You can go to the kitchen and wait for your cooking skills."

He Yuzhu put down the cake in his hand, patted his chest and said confidently: "Don't worry, sister, I guarantee everyone will be satisfied with the meal."

It was almost noon when the aroma from the kitchen began to waft out.

Chief Chen looked up at the wall clock, put down the documents in his hand, tidied up the desk, stood up and walked out.

As soon as he opened the door, he smelled the fragrance in the air. A smile immediately appeared on his face and he walked straight to the kitchen.

When passing by the yard, he saw two children swinging on the swings, laughing happily.

When Lu Ming saw Chief Chen, he stood up and said hello.

Commander Chen waved his hand, nodded with a smile, turned and walked into the kitchen.

"Xiao He, what delicious food have you made today?" Commander Chen picked up the chopsticks with interest, picked up a piece curiously and tasted it carefully.

He Yuzhu turned around when he heard the question. Seeing Chief Chen's actions, he couldn't help but laugh and said jokingly, "Chief, you are such a big leader, why are you so anxious?"

"Haha, I'm telling you that those who are capable get to taste it first." Chief Chen kept moving his chopsticks and replied to He Yuzhu with a smile.

He Yuzhu shook his head helplessly, but his hands did not stop moving. He skillfully put a pot of fragrant twice-cooked pork into the plate.

"Well, you are the leader, you have the final say."

After taking a sip, Chief Chen put down his chopsticks with satisfaction and his eyes fell on He Yuzhu.

"Xiao He, where is your fiancée? Is she in the living room?"

He Yuzhu was washing the pot while replying, "Commander, yes. Sister Fu is chatting with her in the living room."

Chief Chen walked to the stove, picked up the plate of twice-cooked pork, and nodded in appreciation: "You two have come to an agreement so quickly?"

"Yes, Chief, it will be up to you to arrange the school when it rains." He Yuzhu turned his head and said with a smile on his face.

After hearing He Yuzhu's answer, Chief Chen realized that he had resolved the differences and was very pleased that he agreed so quickly.

He walked forward and patted He Yuzhu on the shoulder affectionately: "Okay, you said that I am such a big leader, but I can't arrange it well! Haha!"

"Okay! Commander, thank you for your hard work. Let's start serving the dishes and get ready to eat!" He Yuzhu took off his apron and smiled at Commander Chen.

"You kid are ordering me around, haha. Well, you are the chef in this kitchen, and I will listen to your command!" Commander Chen pointed at He Yuzhu and laughed.

In the living room, the afternoon sun shines through the window onto the ground.

Everyone sat together, and after enjoying a sumptuous lunch, they began to drink tea and chat, enjoying the leisurely afternoon.

He Yuzhu looked at the wall clock and said goodbye.

The group walked into the courtyard, and Chief Chen was holding his little daughter in his arms, with a very happy look on his face.

Sister Fu stood aside, holding Chen Xueru's hand affectionately, and the relationship between the two seemed to have taken a step further during this short time together.

He Yuzhu held his sister Yushui's hand and walked on the other side.

Lu Ming had already walked to the gate of the courtyard, ready to open it for everyone.

Sister Fu turned to look at He Yuzhu, and her favorable impression of this young man who was willing to follow her northward increased a little.

She was well aware of Commander Chen's physical condition, and that there had been significant improvements after he took He Yuzhu's medicinal food.

With He Yuzhu accompanying him this time, Chief Chen no longer had to worry about his food in Harbin. Lu Ming also took care of other things, and her worries were alleviated a lot.

"Xiao Chen, come visit me when you have time. Lao Chen went to Harbin, and it's just me and the two kids left."

Sister Fu patted the back of Chen Xueru's hand gently, her tone kind.

Chen Xueru was no longer as nervous as she was at the beginning, and replied affectionately to the kind Sister Fu beside her: "Sister, as long as you don't find me annoying, I can come every day."

After hearing this, Sister Fu's face immediately lit up with smiles. She leaned close to Chen Xueru's ear and whispered something.

The two of them burst into laughter, and the atmosphere became relaxed and pleasant.

He Yuzhu retracted his gaze and turned to Chief Chen, saying respectfully, "Chief, we will go back first. Please stay."

Commander Chen smiled and nodded. He saw the saliva at the corner of his little daughter's mouth out of the corner of his eye and turned his head to wipe it.

Chen Xueru also let go of Sister Fu's hand, walked quickly towards He Yuzhu, and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.

"Chief, Big Sister. We'll take our leave first." The two said in unison and bowed to say goodbye.

The rain also followed suit, waving its little hands to say goodbye to them.

Everyone watched them leave the living room and walk towards the gate.
