Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

in the cafeteria

"Xiao Laizi, I heard there are a lot of birds in Wild Duck Lake now. What do you think? Let's go and catch a few tomorrow."

Sha Zhu suggested with a smile.

"Okay, if my sister-in-law agrees that you can go, I will go with you."

He Lai didn't care, as he had nothing to do on the weekend anyway.

"It's okay, it's okay, she will definitely agree." Sha Zhu said happily.

"What's wrong? Is there no meat at home?" He Lai asked curiously.

"That's right. Your brother Zhuzi has a large family, and they are all children. Xiao Yangzi and Xi'er won't eat well if they can't get meat. I can't do anything about it."

Sha Zhu explained.

"I think my sister-in-law eats a little too much." He Lai glanced at Sha Zhu, the bootlicker.

Look at Qin Huairu's plump appearance, she must have eaten a lot.

"Hey, your sister-in-law has to feed the children, Meng'er and Feng'er have to be fed, and occasionally she has to feed the aunt's child, so she can't eat more."

"Brother Zhuzi, can't you go fishing?" He Lai asked.

"Don't mention it. There are only small fish in the lake now, and loaches are not very useful."

Sha Zhu explained.

There was no other choice but to conduct extensive salvage operations in all the lakes and rivers in the city, and basically all the big fish had been caught.

"Okay, okay, then go tell Xu Damao to go there tomorrow."

"okay."

When Sha Zhu heard that He Lai agreed, he immediately ran out to find Xu Damao.

……

After get off work, He Lai brought some pumpkin seedlings and winter melon seedlings to Mr. Zhou's place.

As soon as I entered the yard, I found several guards preparing vegetable racks, while Grandma Zhou and Ke'er were watching beside them.

He Lai coughed twice, attracting Ke'er's attention.

"Come here, brother." Ke'er waved her hand and jumped up on the spot.

"Here comes Xiao Laizi. Is this a vegetable seedling? It's growing really well!"

Old Mrs. Zhou came over with Ke'er, saw the seedlings in the basket on the bicycle, and said.

"Well, twenty of each, I'm sure I can grow a lot of winter melons and pumpkins."

He Lai said.

"Too much, too much. We can't eat all of them even if we plant so much." said Old Mrs. Zhou.

"Grandma Zhou, how can you not finish it? Even if you can't finish it, Grandpa Zhou will take care of it. We just need to be responsible for watering it."

He Lai took the seedlings down and said with a smile.

"Oh? What do you want me to deal with?" Mr. Zhou heard the noise outside and walked into the yard.

"Grandpa Zhou, come and plant the seedlings, or you'll die soon."

"How dare you ask me to plant seedlings for you!" Old Master Zhou glared at He Lai.

"Oh my, Grandpa Zhou is showing off his authority. Forget it, forget it, Grandma Zhou, let's just grow the crops ourselves."

He Lai picked up the hoe and walked towards the vegetable field.

"You little brat, do you know how to grow vegetables? Don't kill the seedlings. Leave them to the old man."

Old Man Zhou took He Lai's hoe with a smile and began to wield the hoe in an orderly manner.

"My dear, go get some ash from the stove. We can't do without it! And Ke'er, go get the kettle that grandpa uses to water the flowers. Xiao Laizi, go get a hoe, and let's loosen the soil first."

Mr. Zhou ordered.

Soon a group of people started moving.

Old Man Zhou was waving his hoe and constantly talking about his little experiences in farming when he was young.

After loosening the soil, the four people began to plant the seedlings. Grandpa Zhou dug the holes in the front, Grandma Zhou planted the seedlings, He Lai handed the seedlings, and Ke'er watered the plants. It didn't take long before the job was done.

Just as Mr. Zhou was looking at the fruits of his labor with satisfaction, He said something.

"Grandpa Zhou, tell me, if all of us farmers do the same thing as us, will we starve to death?"

"I'll starve you to death, you big-headed ghost!" Old Man Zhou raised his hoe and cursed He Lai.

"Hey, Grandpa Zhou, be careful not to hurt your back! Grandma Zhou, take these two boxes of tea. One box is for Grandpa Xu. I'm leaving first. Goodbye, Ke'er."

He Lai flashed to Old Lady Zhou's side, handed the tea to her, and then rode away on his bike.

"See you, brother." Ke'er waved her little hand and said.

"Ke'er, let's go back and wash our hands." Old Mrs. Zhou ignored Old Man Zhou, took the tea leaves, and took Ke'er back to the house.

"Hey, how come the person is gone all of a sudden!" Old Man Zhou put down his hoe and went back.

Only a few guards were left standing there, laughing secretly.

……

In the courtyard

The rain has returned, and I'm feeding a golden eagle in the yard. A group of children are gathered around, watching from afar.

With the calls of "Uncle Lai" and "Brother Lai", Yu Shui also saw He Lai and stood up happily.

"Brother, you're back."

"Well, if I don't come back, someone will almost forget me."

He Lai made a joke.

"How could I!" Yu Shui said with a pout.

"Let's go back to the house. There are so many children watching, and we don't have to worry about hurting them."

As He said this, he picked up two golden eagles and brought them into the house, and the rain immediately followed.

"Come here, brother, have some water." Yu Shui immediately brought over a glass of water.

"Ah."

"Come on, brother, you must be tired. Let me give you a massage." Yu Shui said as she ran behind He Lai and started massaging his shoulders.

"Well, it's comfortable! What's the matter? Is there something you need help from, brother?" He Lai said with his eyes closed.

"Well, my sister-in-law told me that you have chocolates. I want some too!"

Rain said.

"As for chocolates, yes, there are some. Go find them yourself. They are all in the house. If you find them, they are all yours."

He Lai said with a smile.

"I looked for it, but couldn't find it." Yu Shui said depressedly.

"Oh, have you found your room?" He Lai said with a smile.

"Ah, in my room?" Upon hearing this, Yu Shui immediately ran to his room and started searching.

He Lai took the opportunity to follow him in, sat on the rain bed, and used his spatial ability to put a pile of chocolates under the sheets.

He Lai sat on the bed, watching the rain rolling around, but he didn't find a single piece and almost laughed out loud.

Angry Yu Shui sat next to He Lai and stopped talking.

"What's wrong? Are you not going to look for it anymore? Do you want to lie down and take a rest?"

He Lai said with a smile.

"Hmph, come on brother, you are lying, I don't have any chocolate at all."

Yu Shui turned her head away, indicating that she was angry.

"Anyway, the things are in your room. If you can't find them, there's nothing I can do."

He Lai said with a smile while lying on the rain bed.

When Yu Shui heard this, he began to observe the furnishings in the room again to see if there was anything he had missed.

As a result, I looked at each place one by one and found that I had searched everywhere, and I was immediately discouraged.

Yu Shui also lay down, trying to calm herself down, but then she seemed to find something wrong with the sheets and immediately jumped up.

When I lifted the bed sheet, I found a pile of chocolates and I was immediately happy.

"Hey, girl, which way are you lifting the bed sheet?" He Lai opened the bed and glared at Yu Shui.

"Hehe, brother is the best." Yu Shui said with a smile, and then started to take the chocolate.

"Brother, how come you have so many chocolates? I heard from my classmates that chocolates are very expensive."

Rain asked doubtfully.

"Your brother stole it. Do you want it? Be careful or the police will catch you, you glutton."

He said this and pinched Yu Shui's nose again.

"I don't believe it." Yu Shui held the chocolate and ran to the cabinet where she kept snacks, and put each piece of chocolate carefully in.

"Yushui, hurry up and make dinner. Your brother is hungry."

"Okay, I'll do it after I put it away."
