Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

Huairentang, the royal palace of the previous dynasty, was burned down and rebuilt during the turmoil, and is now an important banquet venue.

After the first consultative conference, many evening parties were held, and almost all the famous performing artists in the city had performed there.

Today, the first honors awarding ceremony after the founding of the People's Republic of China was solemnly held in the auditorium.

In the solemn auditorium, the atmosphere was solemn and warm. The bright lights shone down, illuminating the faces that had experienced the war.

Thousands of generals filled the entire auditorium, wearing brand new uniforms, with upright postures and determined eyes.

There were huge portraits of the mentors hanging on the rostrum, and red flags were fluttering.

As the stirring military music sounded, the generals present applauded vigorously, their eyes all focused on the figure walking up to the rostrum.

When the ceremony was officially announced to have begun, the familiar melody of the march sounded and everyone in the auditorium sang along.

When the song ended, the audience burst into warm applause. Everyone's face was filled with excitement and joy, celebrating the hard-earned victory.

As the ceremony progressed, familiar names were read out one after another and warm applause never stopped.

The medal shines brightly on the chest, as if telling the magnificent history of the past few decades.

Behind every medal are countless thrilling life-and-death battles, representing a vivid legendary story.

As night fell, the auditorium was redecorated, with hundreds of tables set up, creating a grand and spectacular scene.

The kitchen brought the prepared dishes and fruits to the table. The many generals attending the meeting took their seats one after another, talking in low voices, waiting for the banquet to begin.

Two days have passed since the last banquet of a hundred generals, and tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival.

At this time, He Yuzhu was in his own yard, collecting the drying mooncakes into a plate.

Chen Xueru and Feng Liping were also carrying basins and busy in the yard.

Considering that there were many families to whom he had to send gifts, he started preparing for this after he came back from the banquet that day.

He Yuzhu put down the mooncake in his hand and looked up at Chen Xueru: "Xueru, I will go to the chief's house later. Do you want to come with me?"

I had discussed this with Chen Xueru before, and both of us must visit the two masters’ homes together.

As for other friends, two of them will each bring mooncakes to visit. If time is tight, they need to visit as many friends as possible so that they can visit them all.

When Chen Xueru heard his shout, she stood up and thought for a moment before responding.

"You should go first today! I think the chief's home is crowded with visitors right now, so you can visit him after this period."

For this ceremony, generals from all over the country gathered in Sijiu City. Most of them had not seen each other for some years.

As a senior leader, Chief Chen has many old subordinates under his command, and many people have visited him in the past few days.

"Xue Ru, you are really thoughtful!"

He Yuzhu flattered him out of habit, but then he changed his mind and realized that according to the current situation, if he went there now, he might be kept there to cook a meal.

"Then if I don't come back later, you don't have to wait for me to eat."

After Feng Liping packed up the mooncakes, she smiled and said to He Yuzhu, "Xiao He, don't worry! I won't let the young lady starve."

"Auntie Feng, how can I not feel at ease with you around? Xueru grew up under your care." He Yuzhu walked towards the two of them, holding mooncakes and speaking.

Chen Xueru walked forward, took Feng Liping's arm, and said with a smile: "Feng Ma, you are my biological mother."

While chatting and laughing, the three of them walked into the north room's living room and worked together to pack the mooncakes with oil paper and divided them into certain numbers as gifts.

In Lingjing Hutong, outside the residence of Chief Chen, He Yuzhu, with a wrapped mooncake hanging on the handlebars, knocked on the gate.

The sound of "Knock knock knock" on the door spread into the yard.

Not long after, there was a noise behind the door. As the courtyard door opened, Lu Ming appeared behind the door.

"Zhu Zi, you're here!" As he said this, he stepped over the gate and reached out to help He Yuzhu lift the bicycle.

He Yuzhu nodded and walked inside: "Brother Lu, I made some mooncakes myself and sent some to you to try."

Lu Ming glanced at the paper bag and smiled: "Haha, I'm in for a treat. The mooncakes you made are very varied."

He Yuzhu parked his bike and heard this, and replied proudly: "That's right, I'm not exaggerating to be a chef. I'm really too comprehensive!"

"Who is too comprehensive? Come and open my eyes!" Chief Chen's voice suddenly interrupted their conversation.

Lu Ming looked at He Yuzhu's embarrassed face and smiled with glee, then quickly stepped back and prepared to watch the fun.

He Yuzhu turned around and looked at Chief Chen who was walking towards him with a smile, and his face was instantly filled with a smile.

He walked up quickly and offered the mooncake in his hand: "I just said that Brother Lu is too well-rounded. It's such a waste for him to be a guard."

Seeing that his firepower was directed at him, Lu Ming's smile froze, and he immediately explained: "Commander, I~"

Chief Chen glanced at Lu Ming, waved his hand to interrupt him, and stared at He Yuzhu.

Lu Ming looked at the situation, his eyes rolled, and he realized that the leader was going to give He Yuzhu another "lesson".

The smile reappeared on his face and he looked at He Yuzhu with a smile.

He Yuzhu took a look at Chief Chen's expression and thought to himself, "Well, I've finally caught up with him today. I wonder what tricks he has up his sleeve."

He simply stopped pretending. His expression changed. He took the mooncake back, opened it, and threw one to Lu Ming.

Lu Ming was a little confused for a moment and caught the mooncake in a panic.

But when he smelled the faint fragrance, he didn't care and took a bite.

Well, it’s so sweet!

After seeing He Yuzhu throw the mooncake to Lu Ming, Chief Chen took it and started eating it himself, not intending to give him one.

A smile flashed in his eyes, and he pointed at He Yuzhu and scolded him, "You haven't learned anything else, but you have learned how to turn against them vividly!"

As he said this, he walked up to He Yuzhu, snatched the paper bag with one hand, took the mooncake and started eating it.

He Yuzhu finished the mooncake in his hand in a few bites, patted the crumbs on his hands, spread his hands, and looked at Chief Chen.

"What can I do? Just tell me what you want to say! The longest way I've ever walked is your routine. I really can't keep up."

Commander Chen swallowed the mooncake in his mouth and laughed out loud. For others to praise him like this is the best compliment.

"Let's go! Come with me to the study to talk." He paused and looked at Lu Ming, "Xiao Lu, do you want to eat another piece?"

Lu Ming chewed the mooncake and shook his head hurriedly: "Chief, that's enough. One piece is enough for this sweet."

The two of them soon arrived at the door of the study, and He Yuzhu followed Chief Chen in.

Commander Chen walked straight to the desk, put down the mooncake, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea to dilute the sweetness in his mouth.

He Yuzhu closed the door and saw the general's dress uniform hanging next to the desk at first glance.

Chief Chen turned around and found that He Yuzhu's eyes fell on the dress. He smiled faintly: "Zhuzi, how is it?"

"With your reputation, Commander, the whole world is shaken!" He Yuzhu gave a thumbs up and flattered for fun.

"Haha! You have some of my style now! Keep it up!" Commander Chen laughed out loud at the humour and stretched out his hand to invite He Yuzhu to sit down.

After He Yuzhu sat down, Chief Chen handed over a cup of tea and said, "Zhuzi, guess what job I've assigned to you?"

He Yuzhu took the teacup with both hands, frowned, and shook his head after thinking.

"I'm not the Monkey King in your belly. You have so many magical powers, how can I know where to go?"

Chief Chen sat on the sofa nearby and pointed at He Yuzhu: "I didn't expect you to have some reputation elsewhere!"

"Ah? Isn't it the Capital Hotel?"
