Siheyuan: Sap is the last word

Yan Bugui frowned, looked at Xu Damao, and then looked at He Yudong: "This is no small matter, the crops are the result of everyone's hard work."

He Yudong felt the pressure doubled, and his heart was full of apologies: "I'm sorry, uncles and aunts, I really didn't mean it. I will do my best to make amends, please forgive me."

Just then, Yi Zhonghai came over, saw everyone gathered together, and asked, "What happened?"

Xu Damao sneered: "He Yudong trampled the crops in the backyard and said it was not intentional."

Yi Zhonghai looked at He Yudong, then at the crops that were trampled, pondered for a while, and then said: "He Yudong, whether it was intentional or not, this matter is indeed very serious. However, we have to give you a chance to see how you can make amends."

He Yudong nodded and said gratefully: "Thank you Uncle Yi, I will do my best to make amends."

The neighbors in the courtyard also expressed their understanding. Qin Huairu said, "He Yudong, we know you didn't mean it, but you must be careful next time."

Liu Haizhong also comforted him: "Boy, don't blame yourself too much. What's important is how to make up for it."

He Yudong took a deep breath and decided to make up for his mistake. In the next few days, he got up early and went to the farmers' market to buy some new seeds and found suitable fertilizers. With the help of his neighbors, he replanted the crops that were trampled.

One evening, He Yudong was busy in the backyard when Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu came over with some buckets and hoes.

"He Yudong, let us help you." Liu Guangtian said.

He Yudong looked at them gratefully: "Thank you, you are really good brothers."

Liu Guangfu smiled and said, "It's normal for brothers to help each other. Besides, everyone knows you didn't mean it."

He Yudong nodded, feeling extremely warm in his heart. He knew that the understanding and support of his neighbors was the driving force behind his efforts.

In the following days, He Yudong and his brother got up early every day and carefully took care of the crops that had been replanted. Gradually, the crops began to recover and regain their green glory.

One morning, He Yudong and his brother were watering the crops when Qin Huairu came over with a basket of fresh vegetables.

"He Yudong, brother, thank you for your hard work. These are the vegetables my family just picked, take some and try them." Qin Huairu said with a smile.

He Yudong took the vegetables and said gratefully: "Thank you, Aunt Qin, you are so kind."

Qin Huairu patted He Yudong on the shoulder, her eyes full of relief: "You are a sensible child, everyone likes you very much. Just be more careful in the future."

Liu Haizhong also came over with a few bottles of water: "Come, drink some water and take a rest."

He Yudong took the water and felt extremely warm in his heart: "Thank you Uncle Liu, I will work harder."

One evening, He Yudong and his brother returned home after working in the backyard. Wang Cuihua saw them sweating profusely and said distressedly: "He Yudong, brother, you have worked so hard."

He Yudong smiled and said, "Mom, it's not hard. It's what we should do, and everyone supports us."

At night, the courtyard was brightly lit, and neighbors sat around chatting. Yi Zhonghai looked at He Yudong and said with a smile: "He Yudong, you have done a good job during this period, and the crops have recovered well."

He Yudong said modestly: "Thank you Uncle Yi, this is everyone's help, I can't do it alone."

Xu Damao came over at this time, his face a little embarrassed, but he still said: "He Yudong, I was too impatient before, I'm sorry."

He Yudong smiled and replied, "It's okay, Uncle Xu. I know you are doing this for everyone's good."

Neighbors nodded one after another, expressing their understanding and support. The harmonious atmosphere in the courtyard was restored again, and everyone shared the little things in life and felt the love for each other.

On a summer night in the city, the air was filled with the smell of fireworks. The neighbors in the courtyard were all enjoying the cool air at their doorsteps, and occasionally there were children laughing. He Yudong dragged his tired steps back to the courtyard, his heart full of mixed emotions. Just a few days ago, he accidentally trampled on the crops, and Xu Damao informed all the neighbors in the courtyard. Today, the whole courtyard decided to criticize and educate him.

Walking into the courtyard, He Yudong saw that quite a few people had gathered in the middle of the courtyard. Yi Zhonghai, Qin Huairu, Yan Bugui, Liu Haizhong and others were all there, and everyone's faces were full of seriousness and expectation. He Yudong took a deep breath and silently told himself to face this criticism calmly.

"He Yudong, here he is." Yi Zhonghai was standing at the front. When he saw He Yudong approaching, he nodded.

"Yes, Uncle Yi." He Yudong replied, trying to make his voice sound calmer.

Liu Haizhong patted He Yudong on the shoulder and motioned him to sit down. The neighbors around him were all watching him quietly, and He Yudong felt an unprecedented pressure.

"He Yudong, we are holding this meeting today to discuss the incident of you trampling on the crops a few days ago." Yi Zhonghai said with a hint of severity in his tone.

He Yudong nodded, knowing in his heart that this was inevitable: "Uncle Yi, I know I was wrong. This matter is indeed my responsibility, and I shouldn't be so careless."

Yan Bugui interrupted, "Little He Yudong, we all know that you are usually a sensible child, but you did something wrong this time. The crops are the result of everyone's labor and cannot be easily destroyed."

He Yudong felt a burning sensation on his face. He lowered his head and tried to calm himself down: "I know. I will definitely find a way to make up for it."

Qin Huairu looked at He Yudong, then at the neighbors around her, and said softly, "He Yudong, although this incident made everyone unhappy, we also saw your attitude of trying to make amends. We hope that you can be more careful and serious in doing things in the future."

He Yudong raised his head and looked at Qin Huairu gratefully: "Thank you, Aunt Qin, I will remember it."

Liu Haizhong nodded and continued, "He Yudong, we are gathered here today not only to criticize you, but also to help you. We hope that you can learn from this mistake and become more mature."

He Yudong took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Uncles and aunts, I understand what you mean. I will definitely learn from this mistake and become more cautious."

Yi Zhonghai nodded with satisfaction: "He Yudong, it's great that you have such an attitude. We believe that you are a child with potential. As long as you are willing to work hard, you will definitely do better."

After the meeting, He Yudong walked alone in the yard with mixed feelings. He knew that this criticism and education was an important lesson for him and also an opportunity for growth.

The next morning, He Yudong got up early and started busy with new tasks. He decided to prove himself with practical actions and make up for his mistakes. He went to the backyard again and carefully checked the replanted crops to make sure they were all growing healthily.

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu also came to the backyard early, carrying hoes and buckets. Liu Guangtian smiled and said, "He Yudong, let's help together today."

He Yudong looked at them gratefully: "Thank you, you are really good brothers."

Liu Guangfu patted He Yudong on the shoulder and said, "It's normal for brothers to help each other. Besides, everyone knows that you didn't mean it."

He Yudong nodded, feeling extremely warm in his heart. He knew that the understanding and support of his neighbors was the driving force behind his efforts.

A month later, the crops gradually recovered and regained their green glory. He Yudong felt a deep satisfaction, knowing that his efforts were not in vain.

Winter has quietly arrived in the old city, and the snow has covered the entire courtyard. The snowflakes are falling, adding a sense of tranquility and purity to this ancient city. He Yudong and his brother stood in front of the window, looking at the snow outside, their hearts filled with joy for winter.

"Brother, let's go out and make a snowman!" the younger brother said excitedly, with anticipation gleaming in his eyes.

He Yudong smiled and nodded: "Okay, let's put on some thick clothes and go play in the yard."

The two brothers put on thick cotton clothes, gloves and hats and walked out of the house. There was a thick layer of snow in the yard, which made a "crunching" sound when stepped on. He Yudong and his brother chose a place in the middle of the yard and started to make a snowman.

"Pile a little more here, so the snowman will be bigger." He Yudong said to his brother while piling up snow.

The younger brother worked hard to move the snow and responded with a smile: "Okay, brother, I will make a big snowman!"

While the two brothers were busy, Xu Damao came over from the other end of the yard, pushing his bicycle. The snow on the ground made it difficult for him to walk, and he took every step carefully. Suddenly, his foot slipped, and he fell to the ground with his bicycle, making a dull sound.

He Yudong stopped what he was doing and saw Xu Damao falling to the ground in a mess, with the bicycle on top of him. He hesitated for a moment, thinking about what Xu Damao had reported him to before, and felt that this was retribution. His younger brother also saw this, tugged at He Yudong's sleeve, and whispered, "Brother, should we go help Uncle Xu?"

He Yudong shook his head and said coldly: "No, he will get up by himself."

The younger brother was a little confused, but he still listened to his brother and continued to build a snowman. Xu Damao struggled to get up from the ground and patted the snow off his body. Seeing that He Yudong and his brother did not come to help, his face became a little ugly. He snorted, picked up the bicycle, and pushed it away.

Not long after, Qin Huairu walked out of the house and frowned when she saw the place where Xu Damao fell. She walked to He Yudong and asked in a low voice: "He Yudong, Xu Damao fell just now, didn't you go to help him?"

He Yudong raised his head and said calmly, "Aunt Qin, doesn't he always criticize us? Let him handle it himself this time."
