Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

The setting sun shines through the window and into the room.

The fan on the low stool was whirring, sending out wisps of cool wind that gently brushed across the mosquito net over the wooden bed.

He Yuzhu was lying on the bed, having changed his clothes and wearing a set of comfortable short pajamas.

Chen Xueru hugged his arms, snuggled up to him, her face filled with happiness.

"Brother Zhuzi, why do you insist on sleeping here?" Her tone was a little resentful, and she didn't quite understand what he was thinking.

Chen Xueru recalled the scene of going to Harbin during the Chinese New Year last year. She thought that the two were engaged and could be closer, but she didn't expect that they still slept in separate rooms.

He Yuzhu said she was still young and they would talk about it later.

But this year they are both twenty years old. Chen Xueru is younger than him, but she still insisted on waiting to get the marriage certificate.

He Yuzhu coughed dryly, feeling a hint of complaint from her and feeling helpless.

He was not yet eighteen, so it is better not to mention underage matters. If he is put in the small dark room, wouldn’t it be a waste of time?

As for the current situation, it is safer for my brother to continue to suffer.

The car is so fast on Akina Mountain. If you don’t have this skill, you won’t dare to go on the road.

He could only pat Chen Xueru on the shoulder with an apologetic look in his eyes.

"Isn't it almost time? Let's go get the marriage certificate first without waiting for the house to be repaired. We'll host a banquet for everyone after the chief returns to Beijing."

Hearing his words, Chen Xueru immediately propped herself up with her hands and stared at him with sparkling eyes: "Are you serious? Then let's go get the certificate tomorrow!"

After saying this, a smile bloomed on her face, her eyes filled with anticipation and excitement.

Seeing the joy on her face, He Yuzhu felt warm in his heart and couldn't bear to refuse.

He nodded and said softly, "Okay, let's go to the street office tomorrow morning to get the certificate. Let's go to Master Ma's house for lunch at noon, and then go to the Jiaodaokou Street Office together in the afternoon to apply for the certificate."

"Okay!" Chen Xueru nodded repeatedly, smiling like a flower, lying on his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat.

As if infected by him, her cheeks flushed slightly, filled with happiness and anticipation.

He Yuzhu hugged Chen Xueru, the fragrance of her hair lingering in his nose, which made his heart flutter.

In order to divert his attention, he quickly chatted with Chen Xueru.

"Xue Ru, this fan is great. Where did you get it from?"

Chen Xueru moved her body to a more comfortable position before she slowly answered, "It was a gift from Elena when I came back from the Soviet Union last time."

He Yuzhu looked at the sturdy and durable design style, which reminded him of the old-fashioned electric fan at his grandfather's house when he was a child.

He half-jokingly asked, "I didn't go to the kitchen just now. Did you bring a refrigerator?"

"Ah?" Chen Xueru raised her head and met his gaze, smiling, "Of course, otherwise where did the cold drinks you guys get from?"

He Yuzhu's curiosity was aroused, and he asked casually, "Why did Elena start giving you this?"

"Don't you think about how much benefit she got from me providing her with high-quality silk?" Chen Xueru looked like she had made a fortune.

He Yuzhu was amused by her expression and pinched her nose: "Okay, now that you have it, use it. Just don't use more for the time being."

Chen Xueru looked at him with confusion: "Hmm? Brother Zhuzi, why do you say that?"

He Yuzhu didn't explain to her either, the real reason was unspeakable.

He changed the subject and continued, "Have you started doing what I mentioned to you during the Chinese New Year?"

Chen Xueru's heart tightened, thinking of the public-private partnership he had proposed before.

In fact, she had never started to do it. Now that her silk business was booming, she had been putting it off.

When asked by He Yuzhu at this moment, Chen Xueru couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

She rolled her eyes and was thinking about how to get around it when she suddenly felt something strange in He Yuzhu's body.

Chen Xueru's cheeks flushed slightly and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes. She took the opportunity to pinch him, broke free from his arms and sat up.

"I'm doing it, I'm doing it!" After saying that, she took the opportunity to stand up from the bed and ran out of the room.

He Yuzhu watched her figure disappear outside the door, and he knew in his heart that she did not really go to do the public-private partnership.

He did not reveal much emotion, but just smiled calmly, not caring too much.

After all, this is the trend of the times, but she doesn't need to set an example now, and he still has time to persuade her.

He Yuzhu picked up the kettle and made himself a cup of water.

The clear water slid down his throat, taking away the dryness in his mouth and calming the restlessness in his heart a little.

Lying back on the bed, he closed his eyes and listened quietly to the sound of the electric fan.

He Yuzhu's eyes fell on the panel that was summoned. He stared at the data intently and began to take stock of what he had gained in the past three years.

-----------------

Character: He Yuzhu

Constitution: 17.5

Spirit: 20.6

Skills: Cooking Level 8 (105/1500)

Liuhe Baguaquan LV8 (252/1500)

Mechanical Level 6 (84/370)

Fishing Level 3 (3/100)

Stick figure LV5 (5/260)

Medical skill LV9 (89/+∞)

(Assisted) Health-preserving skill LV3 (1/+∞)

Experience Points: 0

Buff: Competitiveness

-----------------

Ever since getting engaged to Chen Xueru, the competitive buff has started to take effect, and the panel has given a total of more than 2,000 experience points.

He Yuzhu has always adhered to the idea of ​​giving priority to traditional Chinese medicine, and he invested all the points he obtained in the early stage into traditional Chinese medicine skills.

He watched his skill level soar from LV4 to LV8, and couldn't help but feel secretly delighted.

When he was hesitating whether to use his only chance to upgrade his skill, a prompt suddenly appeared on the system interface, indicating that the skill level could only be upgraded to LV9.

This time He Yuzhu had no more hesitation and used his only chance to upgrade his skills successfully to level 9.

What he didn't expect was that something unexpected happened, and his upgraded skills turned into medical skills.

If it weren't for the enhancement brought by these skill upgrades, which increased the spirit points by 3.2, He Yuzhu would have been overwhelmed by the flood of information.

Even so, he still had to sleep for a day and a night to digest and absorb the vast amount of knowledge that was instilled in him.

He Yuzhu's medical skills have now reached an unprecedented level. It can be said that he has mastered both Chinese and Western medicine, with no predecessors and no successors.

He used his upgraded medical skills to regulate Chief Chen's body, greatly improving Chief Chen's physical condition, and thus gained dozens of points of medical experience.

In the process of taking medicinal food tonic, his cooking skills and experience also increased a lot, and he successfully upgraded to LV8.

What was even more unexpected to him was that the health-preserving exercises also brought him unexpected benefits.

After He Yuzhu added several hundred experience points to upgrade, each of the two items increased by a full 2 ​​points.

The huge improvement made him feel that he had broken through his limits and was even qualified to dabble in low-level martial arts training.

But after practicing for a long time, he didn't feel that he had developed any internal strength, and he felt a little disappointed for a while.
