Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

In front of the He family's house, sunlight cast dappled light on the alley road.

Chen Xueru carefully adjusted the scarf for He Yuzhu, took a step back, her eyes flashing with satisfaction.

She walked quickly to the back of the bicycle and patted He Yuzhu on the back: "Let's go! Let's go."

He Yuzhu turned his head, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and there was a hint of teasing in his eyes.

"Xue Ru, it's almost ten o'clock. You've eaten well and slept enough. I'm afraid you've become plump and well-nourished."

Chen Xueru thought to herself that it seemed to be true recently. Her appetite was much better than before and her mood was particularly good.

But when she heard him say that he would get fat, even though she knew he was joking, she couldn't help but get angry.

She wanted to reach out and pinch He Yuzhu, but then she thought that the weather was cold and he was wearing too many clothes, so it would be impossible to hurt him.

Instead, he pinched He Yuzhu's ears upwards, applying a little force, with a playful look in his eyes.

"Okay! Are you starting to dislike me now?"

The smile on He Yuzhu's face froze instantly, and he sighed inwardly. Is this joke about "getting fat" a minefield in the world? He didn't expect her to react like this.

"Don't worry, Xueru. You misunderstood. This is just the right amount of plumpness." He said this while deliberately winking at her to tease her.

Seeing him like this, Chen Xueru couldn't help but chuckled, let go of her hand, and gently rubbed his ears, humming: "I'll let you go this time."

He Yushui rode her second-hand bike and watched the two people arguing back and forth. She couldn't help but roll her eyes and secretly complained in her heart: "These two people are really enough."

She looked up at the sun and couldn't help interrupting and urging, "Brother! Sister-in-law! Are you done? How about we have lunch first?"

When Chen Xueru heard this, a blush appeared on her cheeks and she glared at He Yuzhu charmingly.

She then sat lightly on the back seat of the bicycle, put her arms around He Yuzhu's waist, and turned her eyes to He Yushui.

"Yushui, let's go! Let's go! Let's walk around for a while and then go eat roast duck."

He Yuzhu shook his head gently, with a happy smile on his lips. He lowered his head and pedaled the bicycle hard, heading forward. As the wheels turned, gusts of cheerful wind were brought up.

Seeing this, He Yushui also sped up and followed closely. The figures of the three people gradually disappeared in the morning light and laughter.

In front of the bustling Bian Yi Fang restaurant, He Yuzhu and two other people had just finished eating roast duck inside and lifted the door curtain and walked out.

"Hiccup~"

A satisfied burp came out of He Yushui's mouth. She stroked her round belly with a happy smile on her face.

When He Yuzhu saw her like this, he was speechless and patted her head gently.

"Yushui, you look like you haven't eaten for a few days. If someone doesn't know, they would think I'm starving you."

He Yushui reached out and rubbed his head that had been hit, with a look of grievance on his face.

Hearing this and thinking about her performance just now, her slightly frowned brows gradually relaxed, replaced by a shy blush.

She smiled sheepishly and explained, "Brother, I don't know what's going on. I always feel hungry and eat a lot after school started."

He Yuzhu said softly, he had indeed neglected to pay attention to the rain during this period. He turned to look at Chen Xueru, his eyes full of questions.

Seeing him looking at her, Chen Xueru nodded slightly. She had been getting up late recently and had lunch at home before going to the store.

Baochao Hutong is not far from her home, so she would bring lunch to He Yushui and knew He Yushui's diet very well.

After getting Chen Xueru's confirmation, He Yuzhu's gaze fell on He Yushui again and he looked at her carefully. She seemed to have grown taller and her features had become more mature.

"Yushui, have you grown taller recently?"

He Yushui quickly turned his head to look at the trouser leg, and when he saw that it was quite far away from the heel, surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes.

She turned around suddenly, grabbed He Yuzhu's arm, and almost jumped up with excitement: "Brother, I really grew taller! Haha!"

Seeing her like this, He Yuzhu was moved and said solemnly: "That's good! Practice boxing more in the morning next time."

When He Yushui heard this, she immediately pouted and her eyes were full of reluctance.

She was muttering something under her breath, obviously complaining about the sudden increase in dosage.

But she knew that even asking Chen Xueru to change the situation would not work, so she could only keep complaining.

The smile will not disappear, it will only transfer, and now it has transferred to He Yuzhu's face.

Chen Xueru curved her eyebrows and smiled slightly. She was already accustomed to the daily bickering between the brother and sister, and her heart was filled with warmth.

"Let's go! Let's go to the nice place your sister-in-law mentioned. I want to see if there are any other places I haven't been to yet."

As he spoke, He Yuzhu waved his hand, took the lead and walked towards the parking lot, followed closely by He Yushui and Chen Xueru.

The three of them rode on two bicycles and, under the guidance of Chen Xueru, leisurely headed towards the good place she mentioned.

Passing through the bustling Qianmen Street, they continued to move forward along the Langfang headlines.

He Yuzhu was riding his bike, and the buildings along the way gradually evoked a sense of familiarity in his heart.

"We're here! This is it!" Chen Xueru's voice was filled with excitement as she hurriedly asked He Yuzhu to stop the car.

He Yuzhu stopped the car steadily, looked up at the familiar sign in the setting sun, and now he understood what Chen Xueru meant by a good place.

He withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Chen Xueru beside him, with a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.

Chen Xueru felt He Yuzhu's gaze, her cheeks turned slightly red, her eyes flickered unconsciously, and her heart was beating fast.

She knew He Yuzhu's attitude and he had been persuading her to cooperate.

But she has been putting it off and now wants to expand the scale, which seems a bit lacking in confidence.

Chen Xueru's eyes were wandering, and she stammered, "Well, since we're here, let's go in and take a look! This is a really great place."

He Yushui pushed her bicycle and looked at the ordinary pub in front of her in confusion. She wondered what a good place this was.

She felt disappointed, as she had thought it was some new and interesting place.

"Let's go! We're here now!" He Yuzhu shook his head slightly when he saw this. He didn't want to scold her and decided to solve the problem when it arose.

When Chen Xueru saw that he agreed, she was delighted and quickly stepped forward, took He Yuzhu's arm, and smiled like a flower.

"Brother Zhuzi, you are so nice!"

When He Yushui saw her like this, he started to speak in a sarcastic tone.

"Sister-in-law, it's not even dark yet, why is it so cold? I'm getting goose bumps!"

Chen Xueru felt a little embarrassed when she heard Yu Shui's teasing. She turned her head and stared at Yu Shui with her almond-shaped eyes: "Yu Shui, I think your brother needs to give you more."

He Yushui begged for mercy quickly, smiling, and said, "Sister-in-law, my dear sister-in-law. I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again next time."

While the three of them were playing, they walked into the tavern.
