Siheyuan: Rebirth 52 years later, escaping from famine in Beijing

Her slender and graceful ankles were praised by everyone present. "So beautiful!" He Yushui was especially full of praise. After a short try-on, Xiaohan said with satisfaction, "It fits just right." Hearing this, Liu Lan was relieved.

Then came Sister Fei’s gift—a set of impeccably beautiful clothes; Li Jing also gave a perfume she had carefully selected as a gift.

Finally it was the last part - everyone's attention was focused on Lu Weimin.

Xiao Han, who was also full of expectation, stared at Brother Wei Min, hoping for what kind of surprise he could give her. Lu Wei Min smiled and said, "Today I want to give Xiao Han two gifts! I hope you like them."

"Ah! Brother Wei Min is so magnanimous! And he is so good to Xiao Han!" He Yushui commented with a smile, and the crowd also showed great interest and curiosity.

Knowing that Brother Weimin would give her two great gifts, Xiaohan was extremely surprised and sweet: "As long as there is something given by Brother Weimin, I feel it is extremely precious!"

"First, the first gift." Lu Weimin handed Xiaohan a small and exquisite box. When Xiaohan carefully opened it,

"What a beautiful gold necklace! Thank you, Brother Wei Min!" Looking at the dazzling necklace in front of her, Xiao Han was so excited that her cheeks flushed.

All the women at the scene were amazed, especially Li Jing and Sister Fei, who looked at Lu Weimin with shining eyes, as if signaling to him: "Weimin, we want a piece of this good stuff too!"

Lu Weimin immediately understood what the two girls were thinking and gave them a reassuring look. The two girls then smiled.

Liu Lan was also very itchy.

When Sha Zhu noticed his wife's expression, he also wanted to buy her such a gift, but unfortunately his financial situation did not allow it. Yu Shui was also full of envy.

The first gift was so precious that everyone was looking forward to the next one. At this time, Lu Weimin took out another box from his pocket and handed it to Xiaohan, "Xiaohan, take a look at what this is."

Xiao Han excitedly took the box and opened it carefully. The next moment, she covered her mouth with both hands, tears welling up in her eyes, full of happiness and gratitude: "Ah! Brother Weimin, thank you so much, thank you!"

As she spoke, she couldn't help but rush towards Lu Weimin, becoming more and more excited.

The onlookers were so shocked when they saw this scene that they were speechless.

Why is Xiaohan so excited about this jade pendant?

Seeing everyone's puzzled looks, Lu Weimin gently stroked Xiaohan's back to comfort her while slowly explaining:

"This is the only souvenir left by Xiaohan's biological parents. We accidentally lost it while wandering. For so many years, I have been secretly helping to look for it, but to no avail. Last month, I accidentally got this message and finally found it!"

After hearing this, everyone finally understood why Xiaohan was so excited.

"Brother Wei Min, thank you! I thought I would never be able to find it again in my lifetime, but you have been helping me in secret. Thank you so much! Brother Wei Min, I am so happy and excited. I have no way to repay your kindness!"

"Silly girl! Why does Brother Weimin need your repayment? I will be very happy to see you happy." Lu Weimin said while gently touching Xiaohan's head.

Li Jing, Sister Feifei, Yu Shui and Liu Lan who were present witnessed this touching scene and were all moved to tears.

After the sumptuous dinner, Lu Weimin's family and Sha Zhu's family went shopping together and had a great time.

It was not until nearly ten o'clock in the evening that everyone returned to Ermingang together.

Xiaohan took the initiative to offer to drive the jeep to take Shazhu and his family home safely.

Wait for Xiaohan to leave,

A swish,

The two beauties in the hall - Li Jing and Feifei - stared at Lu Weimin at the same time, their eyes revealing a hint of resentment and full of expectation.

"husband!"

"Wei Min!"

"Why didn't our husband give us a gold necklace?"

Both of them asked the question in unison, as if they had agreed beforehand.

"Of course I'm prepared!" Fortunately, Lu Weimin had already thought about this day and prepared two extra gold necklaces, which he immediately showed them to them.

"Wow! It's so beautiful, thank you dear!"

"I like it very much! Thank you Weimin!"

Li Jing and Feifei looked at the glittering gold necklace and smiled contentedly. In fact, compared to the necklace itself, they cared more about whether it occupied an equally important position in Lu Weimin's heart. They did not dislike Lu Weimin's kindness to Xiaohan, but the premise was that he had to treat them equally attentively.

On the way to send Shazhu and Liu Lan's family home, Xiao Hanyi saw Yan Jiecheng and Xu Damao who were on their way home.

"Xiao Han, you are so awesome. You can actually drive a car!" When the two saw Xiao Han driving a jeep with Sha Zhu and his family returning home in the car, they couldn't help but admire him.

In response to Yan Jiecheng's compliment, Xiao Han smiled and replied, "Learning to drive is actually not difficult."

"You talked to us and smiled at me, that's so pretty! Xiaohan, where are you going so late?" Yan Jiecheng looked at the beautiful Xiaohan, his heart was filled with joy, and asked with a smile.

Xiaohan has not responded yet.

"Today is Xiaohan's birthday. We are preparing to go back after celebrating her birthday party." Shazhu smiled foolishly and answered first.

When Yan Jiecheng and Xu Damao learned that Xiaohan was celebrating her eighteenth birthday today, their eyes sparkled with interest. They immediately realized that this meant that Xiaohan was now old enough to consider dating.

The two were secretly excited. They thought they would be lucky if they could marry a girl like Xiaohan who was both pretty and from a good family.

"Happy birthday, Xiaohan!"

"Xiao Han, if Brother Damao knew it was your birthday earlier, he would have prepared a gift carefully. Since you missed it today, how about giving it to you another day? Just tell me if you need anything!" Xu Damao said with a smile on his face.

Hearing this, Yan Jiecheng was unwilling to be left behind and immediately said that he would also prepare a birthday gift for Xiaohan. But Xiaohan quickly waved her hand to refuse.

Zhuzi, who was standing next to him, laughed out loud when he heard this: "I've never seen anyone think of giving gifts after a birthday is over! Are you two both interested in Xiaohan?"

Zhuzi's straightforward words made Xiaohan blush slightly and feel a little shy.

Xu Damao seemed to be encouraged by Zhuzi's words. His eyes lit up a little and he replied with a smile, "Which unmarried young man in our yard doesn't like Xiaohan from the bottom of his heart?"

Yan Jiecheng was not to be outdone and took the opportunity to echo, "That's true! Xiao Hanmei is not only outstanding in appearance, but also kind-hearted. My parents often praise Wei Minge and Xiao Hanmei as the most outstanding children in the compound!"

These words made Xiao Han turn her attention back to Yan Jiecheng. Seeing him praising her, she couldn't help but smile with a gentle look in her eyes: "Is it true? I think my brother Wei Min is really a very good person!"

"Yes, yes! Xiaohan smiled at me!" Yan Jiecheng was secretly happy.

Seeing his competitor getting Xiao Han's attention, Xu Damao became a little anxious. After thinking for a moment, he said, "We have to hurry and send him back. Goodbye!"

After saying that, he drove away.

After Xiaohan drove the guests away, Xu Damao asked Yan Jiecheng: "Jiecheng, do you like Xiaohan too?" Yan Jiecheng pouted: "So what?"

"I was the first one to choose Xiaohan, and I am older than you in terms of seniority. It is reasonable that you should give way to me!" Xu Damao acted like a senior.

"If you want me to give up Xiaohan, don't even think about it! If you want to pursue her, you have to rely on your own efforts." After saying this, Yan Jiecheng turned around and left firmly, leaving Xu Damao there with an unwilling look on his face.

Yan Jiecheng returned home and suggested to his father that Xiaohan had reached the legal age of adulthood, implying that he hoped his father could help to matchmake for them.

After sending Zhuzi and Liu Lan home, Xiaohan chatted with Yushui for a while and then drove home.

Zhuzi looked at the back of Xiaohan's car as she left and sighed, "It would be great if Xiaohan could marry into our big compound so that I could see her often!"

Liu Lan heard her husband's words and shook her head gently: "Don't waste your time. In my opinion, Xiaohan doesn't care about the young men in our yard at all. She likes outstanding people like Brother Wei Min. This can be seen from the way she looks at Brother Wei Min every time."

Zhuzi responded: "However, where in the world can you find another person as good as Brother Weimin?"

"Even if they can't be exactly the same, they have to be close at least. If they are too mismatched, they will definitely not be favored! The academic qualifications alone will eliminate many people!"

"That's right..."

When Xiaohan returned home, she saw that her sister-in-law and sister Fei had finished bathing and were sitting on the sofa in the living room chatting. "Xiaohan, go wash up!"

"Okay, sister-in-law!" Xiao Han agreed and walked towards her bedroom. She paused for a moment when passing her father's studio, and then went into the bathroom to take a shower.

While taking a bath, she took off her clothes, releasing her beautiful body that had been bound. She put on her favorite gold necklace, looked at herself in the mirror, and sighed softly, "So beautiful!"

At this time, in the study, Lu Weimin was concentrating on reading. During this time, although Sister Fei, Li Jing and Xiao Han came to disturb him, they left one after another soon.

In the following month, the news that Xiaohan had turned 18 spread. There were many people pursuing Weimin's daughter, especially those young people who were not married yet. Almost all of them set their goal to marry Xiaohan. However, Lu Weimin said, "Xiaohan said that she doesn't want anyone other than a college student!" This instantly dispelled everyone's thoughts.

There was nothing wrong with such conditions - who made Xiaohan's goal so high? After hearing these words, Yan Jiecheng, Liu Guangqi, and Xu Damao felt as if they had been hit by a club, and their whole bodies seemed to deflate. The cruel reality before their eyes made them realize that a girl as outstanding as Xiaohan did not belong to their world after all.

Time flies, and it is already the end of 1958, with only a few days left until the New Year. The last working day of the year happens to be the eve of New Year's Eve. In view of the arrangements for the year, Wei Min decided to take his family back to his hometown in advance to celebrate the New Year, clean the new house, and prepare the Spring Festival decorations.
