The deaf grandma raised her head and looked at He Yuzhu and He Hua, her eyes full of confusion.

He Yuzhu said quickly, "Deaf Grandma, He Hua did find a partner, but it's not me. She lied to you because she was afraid you would be disappointed. We are here to make things clear to you now."

Lotus also nodded quickly, her eyes still red: "Grandma, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have lied to you."

The deaf grandmother was silent for a while, then sighed: "Hehua, you silly child. Grandma hopes that you can find a good home, but I can't force it. If Zhuzi doesn't want to, then forget it. Find a suitable partner and live well with him."

Lotus looked at the deaf grandma gratefully: "I understand, deaf grandma. I won't make such a mistake again in the future."

He Yuzhu also breathed a sigh of relief: "Deaf Grandma, please don't be angry with me now. I really don't want to take the blame."

The deaf grandmother rolled her eyes at him and said, "Humph, you should think about your life-long affairs, kid. Stop wandering around by yourself all day."

He Yuzhu scratched his head and said, "Deaf grandma, please don't worry about my affairs. I have my own plans."

After leaving the deaf grandmother's place, He Yuzhu and He Hua both felt relieved.

He Hua looked at He Yuzhu and said sincerely: "Brother Zhuzi, thank you for today. If it weren't for you, I don't know what to do."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "It's okay. Don't be so confused again in the future. Get along well with your partner."

He Hua nodded and turned to leave. He Yuzhu looked at her back and also turned back to his home.

Life in the courtyard continues, He Yuzhu still leads his comfortable life every day, and He Hua also begins her emotional life.

What He Yuzhu didn’t understand was who Lotus’s partner was?

During this period of time, He Yuzhu also asked He Hua indirectly, but He Hua just smiled and said nothing. When he asked the deaf grandmother, she just said she didn't know, which made He Yuzhu interested.

He Yuzhu paid attention to He Hua, but after observing her for a long time, he didn't see her really dating anyone. Just when He Yuzhu thought that He Hua was just lying to please the deaf old lady, He Yuzhu finally discovered a secret of He Hua.

……

It was a not very sunny Sunday. There were a few light clouds floating in the sky, and the sunlight shining through the clouds seemed a little weak.

He Yuzhu didn't want to go out. He felt that it was so cold and it would be better to stay at home to keep warm.

But He Yushui was in high spirits. She pulled his arm expectantly and kept begging him, "Brother, let's go out for a walk. The New Year is coming soon. Let's go out and feel the festive atmosphere."

He Yuzhu looked at He Yushui's eager eyes and couldn't bear to refuse, so he agreed reluctantly.

They were wrapped in thick cotton clothes and walking on the street.

The cold wind was so strong that it hurt people's cheeks. However, He Yushui didn't seem to care about the cold weather. He jumped and skipped along the way, very excited.

They came to Beihai Park. Most of the trees in the park had withered, leaving only bare branches, which looked a bit bleak.

Suddenly, He Yushui seemed to have seen something shocking and stood still.

Her eyes were fixed on a certain place in the pavilion, her eyes full of surprise and confusion.

"Yu Shui, the New Year is almost here, and you insist on coming out for a walk. Are you here just to see this bare pavilion?" He Yuzhu followed He Yu Shui's gaze and looked at the pavilion with some confusion.

He Yushui finally came back to her senses. Her face looked a little ugly, as if she was struggling with something. She looked at He Yuzhu and said earnestly, "Brother Zhuzi, do you think we should tell the deaf grandmother about this?"

He Yuzhu looked at the pavilion with a bewildered look on his face. He blinked twice and asked, "What's the matter? Is there anything you can't say?"

He Yushui hesitated for a moment and said, "Is there something wrong with your eyes? Look carefully at the two people on the left side of the pavilion. Who are they?"

When He Yuzhu heard He Yushui say this to him, he felt like scolding He Yushui. He felt that Yushui's words were too impolite. After all, he was his brother.

But he still held back, after all, He Yuzhu was not such a reckless person. Hearing her talk, He Yuzhu immediately looked carefully in the direction she said.

Sure enough, there were two young men and women in the pavilion. They were talking and laughing, behaving intimately, and hugging each other from time to time.

He Yuzhu was so shocked that his eyes almost fell to the ground. The two people in the pavilion were none other than Xu Damao and He Hua.

A feeling of shock and confusion surged in his heart. No wonder Hehua had always been reluctant to tell the deaf grandmother who her partner was. It turned out to be Xu Damao.

He Yuzhu just felt that the matter was becoming complicated and he didn't know how to deal with it.

He Yuzhu stood there, brows furrowed, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.

On the one hand, he felt that it was not a wise choice for He Hua to be with Xu Damao. He knew Xu Damao's character very well. He was selfish, cunning and treacherous. He Hua would definitely suffer if she followed him.

Moreover, Xu Damao will have a blind date with Lou Xiaoe after the New Year, and Lou Bancheng was the former owner of the steel rolling mill.

After the public-private partnership, Lou Bancheng gradually faded out of the steel mill and lived on dividends like himself.

Xu Damao's mother was the nanny of Lou Bancheng's family. She wanted her son to marry into a wealthy family, so she introduced Xu Damao to Lou Xiao'e, and Lou Bancheng actually agreed to the marriage.

Therefore, it is impossible for Xu Damao to marry Hehua. He was just doing it for fun. This relationship should be Hehua's wishful thinking.

On the other hand, he was worried that if he told this to the deaf grandmother, given her temper, she might drive He Hua away...

He Yushui also looked at He Yuzhu anxiously, waiting for him to make a decision. "Brother, what should we do? How can He Hua be with Xu Damao? We have to think of a way."

He Yuzhu was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Yushui, let's not make this public for now, let's see how things develop.

He Hua is not a child anymore, she should have her own judgment. Maybe she and Xu Damao are just in a whim and will separate after a while."

Although He Yushui was worried, he felt that what He Yuzhu said made sense, so he nodded.

"Okay, let's just observe first. But if Xu Damao dares to bully Cheng Lihua, we can't just sit there and do nothing."

After returning from Beihai Park, He Yuzhu paid attention to the movements of the lotus flowers intentionally or unintentionally.

Lotus seems unaware that her secret has been discovered and continues to live her life as usual.

However, not long after, some rumors about He Hua and Xu Damao spread in the courtyard.

Some people said that they saw Xu Damao carrying lotus flowers when he went to the countryside to show movies, and some people said that they saw the two of them eating in a restaurant.
