Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

"Master Kuai came over this afternoon and said that the renovation work on the house has been completed. We will go over to inspect it tomorrow. If there are no problems, it can be completed."

Chen Xueru told He Yuzhu the news with anticipation in her eyes.

After listening to this, He Yuzhu nodded with satisfaction: "Oh! The speed is really fast! Has he calculated the money for the rework for you?"

"The last time you went there, Master Kuai quickly gave you the price. By the time you thought about it, it was already too late!"

At this point, Chen Xueru snorted, crossed her arms, raised her head slightly, and glared at you with a hint of anger on her face.

Apart from cooking, He Yuzhu rarely gets involved in other matters at home.

Chen Xueru was in charge of almost all the household affairs, and she took the opportunity to express her hard work by getting a little mad.

He Yuzhu chuckled and didn't care about her opinion.

Chen Xueru likes to meddle in things by nature. If she is not allowed to do so, I guarantee she will feel even more uncomfortable.

Noticing the change in her facial expression, He Yuzhu immediately put on a playful smile and gently held her hand.

"My Xueru is smart and capable. These things are a piece of cake for her."

As he spoke, he began to massage her hands and shoulders, trying to relieve her fatigue.

"Um?!"

Chen Xueru didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that He Yuzhu was just pressing her casually to give her a way out and the matter would be over.

Unexpectedly, after his massage, her shoulders felt relaxed and the discomfort she had felt during the day disappeared.

She looked at He Yuzhu in surprise, with a hint of surprise in her tone: "Brother Zhuzi, how come you have this skill? Why haven't I seen you press it on me before?"

He Yuzhu stopped massaging and responded with a smile: "Wasn't that unnecessary before? I see you've been busy lately, so I'll give you some relaxation."

Chen Xueru's eyes lit up and she pulled his arm: "Brother Zhuzi, you should massage me every day from now on, it will be very comfortable!"

He Yuzhu patted his chest and assured: "Okay! I'll make sure you're comfortable, Boss Chen!"

Seeing his funny look, Chen Xueru couldn't help but laugh out loud.

At this time, He Yuzhu's eyes swept out the window. It was getting late and it was time to take a shower and go to bed.

"Xue Ru, it's about time. We should start today's study."

Chen Xueru blushed and nodded slightly: "See how you write your homework today!"

"Hehe! I will definitely fill it up!" He Yuzhu responded confidently.

The next morning, the sun was high in the sky and there was not a single cloud in the sky.

He Yuzhu rode a bicycle with Chen Xueru on the back seat, and the two came to the gate of the new house.

It was just because there were too many homework assignments handed in last night, and Chen Xueru was grading them until late at night. I was too tired to get up in the morning, so I only got here at this time.

Chen Xueru felt the bicycle stop, opened her eyes dazedly, and said in a vague voice: "Are we there yet?"

He Yuzhu propped his legs on the ground to steady the bicycle, turned around, and said with a smile: "Xue Ru, we are here! We can get off now."

When Chen Xueru heard this, she let go of He Yuzhu's hand and jumped out of the back seat.

She stood in front of the gate, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and looked up at the changed gate.

It is very different from the last time I saw it. Except for the door pillars and door pins which are difficult to change, the other parts have been made to look old and look like very old things.

He Yuzhu pushed his bicycle and looked at the renovated appearance. He was very satisfied with the effect.

"Xue Ru, let's go in together!"

Chen Xueru withdrew her gaze and followed He Yuzhu into the yard.

When they reached the central courtyard, they saw workers from the construction team busy packing up tools and clearing garbage.

Master Kuai was standing on the steps. When he saw them coming, he greeted them warmly: "Here come the two masters!"

He Yuzhu's eyes wandered around the courtyard. The external doors, windows and columns were all changed according to his requirements.

His gaze finally stopped at Master Kuai, and he bowed in return: "Master Kuai, your cooking skills are beyond reproach!"

After saying that, he gave Master Kuai a thumbs up.

The architectural skills are what Master Kuai inherited from his ancestors, and it is also what he is proud of.

Hearing He Yuzhu's praise and recognition, Master Kuai smiled proudly: "You praised me!"

He Yuzhu took out a cigarette case and handed over a cigarette: "Master Kuai, please wait a moment. We will take a look first and pay you if there is no problem."

Master Kuai glanced at the cigarette and found it to be a good one. He reached out to take it and his attitude became better.

He sniffed the aroma of the cigarette, put the cigarette behind his ear, and waved his hand: "You two are welcome to look at it at will. If there are any problems, we will change it directly."

"Okay! You're so straightforward!" He Yuzhu praised him and simply gave him the cigarette box. "Then I'll trouble you guys."

Master Kuai was a little surprised, but then he was happy, as this pack of cigarettes was equivalent to half a day's work.

"You are so arrogant!"

He Yuzhu took Chen Xueru for a walk around the yard and after a careful inspection, they found no problems. This team can be called professional.

Back in the middle courtyard, He Yuzhu walked up to Master Kuai and nodded: "Master Kuai, there is nothing wrong with the house. Your craftsmanship is impeccable."

"Okay, if there are any problems with your yard in the future, just come to me. Within five years, if the problem is caused by materials due to construction, I will pay for it."

Master Kuai saw that He Yuzhu was straightforward and confident in the work he could do, so he made a promise directly.

"You are particular!"

He Yuzhu praised again, took out his wallet from his pocket, took out the prepared money, and handed it directly to him.

"Except for the stipulated balance, you can pay it when the time comes. The rest is all here, please count carefully."

Master Kuai took the stack of money with some excitement. This was the biggest order he had received in the past two years.

There haven't been many customers who have renovated their homes in the past few years. Most of them just replaced some materials, aiming to be cheap and practical.

After counting twice, Master Kuai confirmed that everything was correct. He took out a small cloth bag from his pocket, put the money into it, and tied it up carefully.

"That's right, thank you very much! I wish you two a happy family and a long life of wealth and prosperity!"

"Haha! Thank you for your kind words!" He Yuzhu bowed in return.

After the construction team left the yard, Chen Xueru walked out from the backyard and went straight towards He Yuzhu.

"Brother Zhuzi, when are you going to hold the housewarming party? We need to invite the guests in advance."

He Yuzhu stood in the courtyard, thinking about how to decorate the yard, put up a grape trellis and a swing.

He withdrew his gaze from admiring the yard and turned to look at her: "You are right, let's choose the next day off. This way everyone will have time to come."

"Just keep in mind that I don't have many friends here. This time, you will be the one taking charge." Chen Xueru responded with a smile.
