Siheyuan: Me! He Yuzhu defies fate and changes destiny

The old town of Beijing in the cold winter of 1950.

At No. 75 Nanluoguxiang.

A man with an upright face is giving a young man earnest advice:

"Silly Zhu, since your father has abandoned you and your sister, you still have to work hard to shoulder this responsibility."

Fifteen-year-old He Yuzhu felt a strong disgust for the man in front of him. He realized that his five-year-old sister was now in a desperate situation.

Being plotted by this beast in human clothing, He Yuzhu knew that it would not be easy to escape from this mess.

But now he is no longer the helpless child he was back then.

In another world, He Yuzhu is a college student majoring in computer programming with excellent skills.

After graduation, he failed to find a formal job immediately, so he made a living by helping others design game auxiliary programs.

One of his favorite games is called Master of All, in which he wrote a special tool that allows characters to advance without having to complete complex tasks - just by reaching the required skill proficiency.

After completing the tool making, He Yuzhu found himself traveling back to this world. In this winter, the original owner, He Yuzhu, spent a whole night in front of a widow's residence in Beijing and eventually froze to death.

The boy named He Yuzhu has now become the real He Yuzhu.

He also brought back the technical aids he compiled himself. At this time, he was in Beijing, which was under military control and the regime was just beginning to take shape.

Now is a critical time to prevent the enemy's internal disintegration activities. In order to ensure social security and stability, each alley and enclosed residential area has been organized into an autonomous committee to ensure community peace and order; therefore, each courtyard has its own administrator.

Currently, Yi Zhonghai is the uncle No. 1 in Heweiju, on the other side of the yard is Liu Haizhong No. 2, and Yan Bugui in the yard in front is No. 3.

Yi Zhonghai currently works at Lu Zhenning Steel Manufacturing Plant, and his salary is calculated only based on his length of service as his rank has not yet been evaluated.

Yi Zhonghai had already worked in the factory before, and his salary at that time was about 46 yuan.

It should be noted that China had just issued the first edition of RMB in the early 50s; ten thousand banknotes were equivalent to the currency value standard of one yuan in the following years.

By today's standards, ten thousand yuan is still used as the monetary unit.

He Yuzhu sighed deeply and said:

“I am very grateful for Uncle No. 1’s concern and guidance. I know how to deal with this.

Even if my irresponsible father ran away.

I also have to raise my little sister to be a useful person, otherwise how can I comfort the spirit of my deceased mother?"

"

Hearing these words, Yi Zhonghai's eyes flashed with a strange light, and he asked: "What are you going to do in the future?"

“There’s no plan yet.”

He Yuzhu shook his head.

“We can only cross the river by feeling the stones.

It's impossible to be overwhelmed by life, right? "

In reality, the family now occupies a working-class position, albeit one that falls within the category of farmhands.

He Yuzhu understood that he had to deal with the current situation on his own; but he had no intention of telling Yi Zhonghai the specific arrangements.

Since he doesn't have the space to acquire special abilities like plant breeding as is common in novels, his "weapons" only have storage functions and a personal enhancement panel.

Since he had just returned to the modern era, he had not yet sought guidance from his master and had only cooked a few meals at home. As a result, his cooking skills had only improved by seven points.

At this moment, He Yuzhu's attribute panel is very clear:

"Name: He Yuzhu

Expertise: Cooking Skills Level 1 [7/10] [Analysis: Beginner is Level 1, having a basic understanding is Level 2, being proficient is Level 3, having a basic system is Level 4, having a thorough understanding is Level 5, reaching perfection is Level 6, becoming a master is Level 7, being a renowned master is Level 8, being a super master is Level 9, and reaching the pinnacle is Level 10]

His level 1 cooking skills are actually inherited from the memories of his original identity He Yuzhu.

If it is applied to He Yuzhuo, it is very likely that he is only at level 0.

However, He Yuzhu is confident that he will improve this skill quickly.

As for Yi Zhonghai, he nodded in response:

"I understand. As long as you have figured out your path, you can come to me if you have any difficulties. I will do my best to help you!"

Yi Zhonghai learned that when He Daqing left home, he left 200 million savings to He Yuzhu.

At this juncture, any additional help seemed inappropriate. Considering the current living standard, this amount of money was only enough to cover the living expenses of He Yuzhu and his sister for two to three months.

When the time comes, if he helps out, the effect might be better.

He Yuzhu nodded to express his gratitude:

"Thank you, uncle! I have to go home to see my sister. She is still so young!"

Yi Zhonghai nodded with satisfaction and left.

After returning home, He Yuzhu took out the food, looked at He Yushui who was sleeping, and sighed.

How did he end up in this strange land? Others’ journeys through time and space were always accompanied by the identities of a prince or a son of a holy land, or at least the protagonist.

But in He Yuzhu's heart, the real center of this world is undoubtedly Qin Huairu - the story of the model mother and daughter-in-law who gradually became owners of a courtyard in the capital from an ordinary village.

As for the male protagonist, it is naturally not him. It should be Xu Damao without a doubt. After all, Xu Damao has been connected with countless women in his life.

On the contrary, He Yuzhu's life was full of calculations and setbacks. If the old lady had not appeared in time, he would have been destined to be lonely for the rest of his life.

And in the end, he was even raped by Lou Xiao'e and his own daughter He Xiao, and there was no one to see him off when he left this world.

However, He Yuzhu at this time is no longer the He Yuzhu of the past.

Looking at He Yushui, he said firmly:

"I want to reverse the shackles of fate, I want to rewrite everything!"

Just as He Yuzhu was lost in thought and thinking about the future, He Yushui suddenly started crying.

He Yuzhu put down what he was doing, walked over to He Yushui and hugged him:

"Rainwater, stop crying, your brother is here."

He Yushui hugged He Yuzhu tightly and buried her head in his neck:

"Brother, is it because Yu Shui was naughty that dad doesn't want me anymore?

I promise not to make a scene anymore and not to demand delicious food.

Can you bring Dad back?"

Looking at He Yushui's appearance, he felt contempt for his father's behavior in his heart, but on the surface he patted his sister on the back:

“Rainwater, stop crying.

Now that you have a brother, I will use all the money he earns to buy you delicious food, okay?"

He Yushui did not give a direct answer, but just kept sobbing.

He knew that children would slowly accept and get over their emotions.

"Yushui, are you hungry? My brother has cooked, shall we eat?"

He Yushui did not respond, but asked with a helpless look:

"Brother, you won't leave me, will you?"

He Yuzhu shook his head without hesitation:

"Little fool, why do you say that? How could I not care about you? You are my precious sister. I will work hard to earn money to support Yu Shui's schooling and strive to get her into college in the future, okay!"

He Yushui nodded obediently:

"Well, I will be very obedient and listen to my brother in everything!"

Seeing He Yushui's melancholy and uneasy expression, He Yuzhu felt very uncomfortable.

Then he took He Yushui out to eat.

At the same time, at Yi Zhonghai's home, Aunt Yi asked Yi Zhonghai:

"Are you really just going to leave this stupid thing alone?"

Yi Zhonghai rolled his eyes:

"Let's wait and see, it's not the critical moment yet.

Wait until they are having a really hard time, and then give them some help at the right time, so that they will always remember our kindness.

If I help him now, he may not remember my kindness. "
