Siheyuan: Sap is the last word

The children each took their tools and began to look for bird eggs in the grass. He Yudong also skillfully looked for bird nests among the branches, reminding his friends to pay attention to safety from time to time.

"Brother He Yudong, I found a bird's nest!" Banggeng shouted excitedly.

He Yudong walked over and saw Banggeng holding a few small bird eggs. He smiled and said, "Well done, Banggeng."

"Hehe, I learned your technique." Banggeng smiled proudly.

At this time, Liu Guangtian suddenly shouted: "Brother He Yudong, I saw a hare!"

He Yudong immediately ran over and saw a hare quickly running into the grass. He motioned for everyone to be quiet, then gently put down the small net bag and slowly approached the hare. The children held their breath and watched He Yudong's every move nervously.

He Yudong seized the opportunity and quickly threw the net bag to the hare. The hare was caught in the net and struggled for a few times before being successfully captured. The children cheered and jumped around He Yudong and the hare, full of excitement.

"Great, Brother He Yudong!" Liu Guangfu shouted loudly.

He Yudong smiled as he took the hare out of the net bag and carefully put it into the cage he brought with him: "We are lucky today. We can bring back a hare."

Everyone continued to work in the mountains, and the morning passed quickly. When they returned to the courtyard, the children returned with full loads, their faces filled with the joy of victory.

The adults in the yard saw what the children had brought back and praised them: "Great! You have gained a lot this time!"

He Yudong's mother came out and saw the hare in He Yudong's hand. She smiled and said, "Little He Yudong, you are really capable. This hare is not easy to catch."

He Yudong smiled and said, "This is the result of everyone's joint efforts."

Bang Geng said proudly: "Yes, it's because Brother He Yudong led us that we were able to do so smoothly."

Liu Haizhong came over and patted He Yudong on the shoulder: "Little He Yudong, you are really good. The children have learned a lot from you."

He Yudong said modestly: "We play together, study together, and help each other."

By the evening, He Yudong's mother had stewed the wild rabbit. The aroma filled the air, and the children sat around it, eager to taste this delicious game.

"Come on, everyone try it. This is thanks to brother He Yudong." He Yudong's mother smiled and served each child a bowl of soup.

Liu Guangtian took a sip and said in surprise: "It's delicious!"

Liu Guangfu also nodded repeatedly: "Yes, it tastes really good."

Bang Geng was eating so much that his mouth was full of oil and he praised, "He Yudong's mother, your cooking skills are really good."

Everyone ate and talked, and the yard was filled with laughter. He Yudong looked at these children and felt extremely satisfied and happy. He knew that it was these little joys that made life colorful in these ordinary days.

After dinner, He Yudong took his brother and several children to play in the yard. They whistled various sounds, chased each other, and their laughter echoed in the night sky.

"Brother He Yudong, please teach me how to play this whistle. I just can't make it sound." Liu Guangfu said distressedly, holding a small whistle.

He Yudong took the whistle with a smile, demonstrated it, and then patiently taught him: "You have to blow hard and control the airflow with your tongue at the same time, so that you can blow out a loud sound."

Liu Guangfu imitated He Yudong and tried several times. He finally blew a clear whistle and smiled happily: "I got it, Brother He Yudong!"

Banggeng was not to be outdone. He picked up his whistle and blew a few times. Everyone imitated the sounds of birds and wind, and the yard was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

It was late at night, and the children were yawning one by one. He Yudong's mother asked everyone to go home and rest: "Okay, children, you have played enough today, go back and rest."

"Thank you, He Yudong's mom. I'm so happy today!" Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu waved goodbye, and Banggeng followed them home.

He Yudong picked up his brother, whose eyes were half closed due to sleepiness, and said to him softly, "Brother, did you have fun today?"

The younger brother nodded, leaned on He Yudong's shoulder, and said vaguely: "Brother is so nice, take me to play."

He Yudong looked at his brother, and his heart was filled with warmth. He knew that he had the responsibility to take care of his brother and his family, but these responsibilities made his life full of motivation and meaning.

Back in the room, He Yudong gently put his brother on the bed, covered him with a quilt, then sat at the table, opened his book, and began to review. Although he was a little tired after a day of running around, he knew that only by continuous efforts could he bring a better life to his family and brother.

The courtyard was quiet and warm in the middle of the night, with a breeze blowing gently, bringing a hint of coolness. He Yudong looked at his brother's sleeping face and silently vowed in his heart: I must work hard to let my family live a better life.

The next day, He Yudong got up early, prepared breakfast, and took his brother to school. He held his brother's hand and walked on the street. His brother excitedly told him about the interesting things in school.

"Brother, the teacher praised me yesterday and said that my handwriting has improved." The younger brother said happily.

He Yudong smiled and touched his brother's head: "Great, brother, keep it up."

Arriving at the school gate, the younger brother waved his little hand and said goodbye to He Yudong: "Goodbye, brother. See you after school."

He Yudong was very pleased to see his younger brother running into the campus. He knew that the responsibility on his shoulders was not only work, but also the growth and education of his younger brother.

Back at the factory, He Yudong threw himself into his busy work. He and his colleagues worked together to study new production processes, continuously improve technology, and improve product quality. The leaders were very satisfied with He Yudong's work attitude and achievements, and often praised him at meetings.

"He Yudong, your recent performance is very good. We are going to assign you some more important tasks." The leader said to He Yudong at a meeting.

He Yudong nodded and said modestly: "Thank you for your trust, I will do my best."

When he got home in the evening, He Yudong continued to share the day's fun with his brother and neighbors. Although life in the courtyard was ordinary, it was full of warmth and happiness. He Yudong knew that these bits of happiness were the result of his hard work.

He Yudong accidentally damaged some bankers and was encountered by Xu Damao, who told the neighbors in the hospital.

The days in the courtyard are always so busy and peaceful. He Yudong's work in the factory is getting smoother and smoother, but there are always small troubles in life. On this day, He Yudong planned to go to the fields to help with farm work, because his neighbor Yi Zhonghai needed fertilizer for his field, so he asked He Yudong for help.

"He Yudong, my waist has been a little unwell recently and I can't do the work in the fields. Can you help me take a look?" Yi Zhonghai said sincerely.

He Yudong readily agreed: "Uncle Yi, don't worry, I will definitely help you get the job done."

So He Yudong brought his tools and went to Yi Zhonghai's field. The sky was clear, the sun shone on the fields, and the air was filled with the smell of soil. He Yudong turned the soil and applied fertilizers skillfully, his movements were quick and capable. While he was working, he was thinking about buying something delicious for his brother in the evening.

Just as he was busy with his work, Xu Damao came over. He stood by the field, looked at it for a while, and suddenly said loudly: "He Yudong, be careful, don't damage the crops!"

He Yudong raised his head and smiled: "It's okay, Brother Xu, I will be careful."

Xu Damao curled his lips in disdain: "Humph, do you think you can do a good job? I don't think you do a very good job."

He Yudong frowned, but did not say anything back. He continued to work with his head down. Unexpectedly, Xu Damao suddenly pushed him, and He Yudong stumbled and accidentally stepped on a few crops, causing several green corn seedlings to fall down.

Seeing this, Xu Damao immediately shouted, "Oh, everyone, come and see! He Yudong has ruined the crops!"

His voice echoed in the fields and soon attracted many neighbors. Qin Huairu, Liu Guangtian, Liu Guangfu, Bang Geng and others ran over and looked at the fallen crops with surprised expressions on their faces.

"What's going on?" Qin Huairu asked with a frown.

Xu Damao pretended to be innocent: "I just happened to pass by and saw He Yudong accidentally trampled the crops."

He Yudong stood up, patted the dirt off his body, and explained: "I accidentally damaged a few crops, but that's not what happened."

Liu Guangtian frowned: "What's going on?"

He Yudong was about to explain, but Xu Damao spoke up first: "You're still trying to make excuses. It was obviously you who did it, so why are you trying to blame others?"

He Yudong took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down: "Brother Xu, I did accidentally trample on a few crops just now, but you pushed me and I lost my grip."

Qin Huairu looked at He Yudong, then at Xu Damao, frowned and said, "What's going on? Both of you tell me clearly."

At this time, Yi Zhonghai came over slowly. His waist was not very good, and he had some difficulty walking. He looked at the fallen crops, then looked at He Yudong and Xu Damao, and asked in a deep voice: "What are you doing here?"

Xu Damao immediately complained: "Uncle Yi, look, He Yudong has trampled your crops."

He Yudong quickly explained: "Uncle Yi, I was helping you with the work, but Brother Xu pushed me, and I accidentally stepped on a few crops."

Yi Zhonghai frowned, pondered for a moment, and then said: “What you two said makes sense, but I believe He Yudong would not deliberately damage the crops.”

He Yudong looked at Yi Zhonghai gratefully: "Thank you, Uncle Yi, I really didn't mean it."

Xu Damao said unconvincedly: "Humph, if it's broken, it's broken. Why are you still looking for excuses?"

Yi Zhonghai looked at Xu Damao and said calmly: "Da Mao, the incident has already happened. Disputes cannot solve the problem. He Yudong is willing to take responsibility, and that's enough."
