Siheyuan: Sap is the last word

Xu Damao wanted to say something, but seeing Yi Zhonghai's attitude, he had to give up. He glared at He Yudong unwillingly and turned away.

The neighbors also dispersed, and Qin Huairu said to He Yudong: "He Yudong, don't take it to heart, we all know that you are a good child."

He Yudong nodded: "Thank you, Sister Qin."

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu also comforted him: "Brother He Yudong, don't be angry, we know you didn't mean it."

He Yudong smiled: "It's okay, let's go back."

When he got home, He Yudong's mother noticed that her son was in a bad mood and asked with concern, "Little He Yudong, what happened?"

He Yudong briefly recounted what happened. After listening, He Yudong's mother sighed and said, "Hey, Xu Damao always likes to cause trouble. Just ignore him."

He Yudong nodded: "Mom, I understand."

In the evening, the lights in the courtyard gradually lit up. He Yudong looked at the busy neighbors in the yard and felt warm in his heart. Although there are always unsatisfactory things in life, with the support of family and the love of neighbors, everything can be overcome.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai came over, patted He Yudong on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Little He Yudong, don't worry about that little thing. We all know that you are a good child."

He Yudong said gratefully: "Thank you, Uncle Yi."

"By the way, my family has stewed chicken soup tonight. I'll send you a bowl to replenish your body." Yi Zhonghai said with a smile.

He Yudong quickly declined: "Uncle Yi, you don't have to be so polite, I..."

"Don't refuse, take it." Yi Zhonghai insisted, handing a bowl of hot chicken soup to He Yudong.

He Yudong took the chicken soup, his heart filled with gratitude: "Thank you, Uncle Yi."

Yi Zhonghai left with a smile, and He Yudong looked at the chicken soup in his hand and felt warm in his heart. He knew that although there were many challenges in life, with the love and support from the neighbors, he would be able to overcome all difficulties.

The next day, He Yudong got up early, prepared breakfast for his brother, and then sent him to school. After returning to the factory, He Yudong threw himself into the busy work. He knew that only by continuous efforts could he let his family live a better life.

During the lunch break, He Yudong and his colleagues had lunch together. Liu Haizhong came over and asked with concern: "Little He Yudong, did what happened yesterday affect you?"

He Yudong smiled and said, "It's okay, they are just small things, don't take it to heart."

"That's good. If you need any help, just let me know. We are all your brothers." Liu Haizhong patted He Yudong on the shoulder.

He Yudong nodded, feeling warm in his heart. The work in the afternoon went more smoothly. He Yudong was busy in the workshop and solved several technical problems with his colleagues.

When he got home in the evening, He Yudong found the yard was bustling with activity. It turned out that Qin Huairu, the mother of Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu, had prepared a lot of delicious food and invited everyone to eat together. He Yudong and his younger brother also joined the party.

"Come on, everyone, try it. This is the braised pork I made specially for you." Qin Huairu greeted everyone with a smile.

He Yudong took a bite and praised: "It's delicious, Sister Qin, your cooking skills are really good."

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu also said excitedly: "Yes, the food my mother cooks is the best!"

Bang Geng was not to be outdone, he took a piece of braised pork and ate it in big mouthfuls: "Mm, it smells so good!"

Everyone sat together, eating delicious meals and chatting, and the yard was filled with laughter. He Yudong looked at these neighbors and felt extremely satisfied and happy. He knew that although there were many challenges in life, with the love and support among these neighbors, everything could be overcome.

It was late at night, and everyone said goodbye and went home. He Yudong took his brother back to the room. His brother was so sleepy that he yawned. He Yudong whispered to him, "Brother, did you have fun today?"

He Yudong returned to the courtyard with a little fatigue. He had just got off work at the factory and the busy day was finally over. However, as soon as he entered the yard, He Yudong felt a strange atmosphere. Neighbors stood in the yard in groups of three or five, seemingly waiting for him.

"He Yudong, you're back just in time. The whole school meeting is waiting for you." As soon as Qin Huairu saw He Yudong, she walked quickly towards him.

He Yudong frowned, feeling something was wrong: "Conference? What conference?"

Qin Huairu lowered her voice and said, "It's because you damaged the crops yesterday that Xu Damao has been yelling in the yard and wants to hold a meeting of the whole yard to discuss it."

He Yudong's heart tightened, knowing that things might not be that simple. Sure enough, Xu Damao was standing in the middle of the yard. When he saw He Yudong coming in, he immediately shouted, "Everyone is waiting for you, He Yudong, come here quickly."

He Yudong took a deep breath and walked in front of everyone. The neighbors looked at him, some of them looked worried, and some were full of curiosity.

"We are holding this whole-hospital meeting today to discuss the incident in which He Yudong damaged the crops yesterday." Xu Damao looked at He Yudong with a smug look on his face.

He Yudong tried to keep himself calm. He looked around and saw Yi Zhonghai was there, which made him feel a little more at ease. Yi Zhonghai nodded slightly, signaling him to calm down.

Xu Damao continued, "Everyone saw that He Yudong accidentally trampled on a lot of crops while working in the fields yesterday. This is a big deal, and the rules in our yard cannot be broken!"

"Brother Xu, I've already explained it. It was an accident." He Yudong tried to speak in a calm tone.

"Accident? You always say it's an accident. Who will believe you if you continue like this?" Xu Damao sneered.

Qin Huairu interrupted, "Xu Damao, everyone knows that He Yudong didn't mean it, and it's not good for you to be so aggressive."

Xu Damao snorted disdainfully: "Sister Qin, you always favor him, we should deal with it fairly."

Liu Haizhong stepped forward and said calmly, "Everyone calm down. We are neighbors. If there is anything, we can discuss it properly."

He Yudong looked at Liu Haizhong gratefully, and then said, "Everyone, I did accidentally damage a few crops yesterday, and I am willing to take responsibility."

Yi Zhonghai nodded, stepped forward and said: "He Yudong has a very good attitude and is willing to take responsibility. Neighbors should help each other, understand and tolerate each other."

Xu Damao wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Liu Haizhong: "Okay, Xu Damao, everyone knows the situation, so don't bother with it anymore."

The people in the yard nodded in agreement. He Yudong looked at these neighbors and felt warm in his heart. He knew that although some people always liked to make trouble, most of the neighbors still supported him.

Seeing this, Xu Damao had no choice but to say angrily: "Okay, let's do as everyone says."

The whole hospital meeting ended quickly, and the neighbors gradually dispersed. Qin Huairu came over and patted He Yudong on the shoulder: "Don't take it to heart, He Yudong, we all know that you are a good kid."

He Yudong nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you, Sister Qin."

At this time, Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu ran over and said excitedly: "Brother He Yudong, don't be angry, let's go play!"

He Yudong smiled and took them to the open space in the yard. He knew that despite the many challenges in life, the smiling faces of these children could always bring him unlimited strength.

In the evening, He Yudong returned home. He Yudong's mother saw that her son was in a bad mood and asked with concern: "Little He Yudong, what happened?"

He Yudong briefly recounted what happened, and He Yudong's mother sighed: "Hey, this Xu Damao always likes to cause trouble, just ignore him."

He Yudong nodded: "Mom, I understand."

In the evening, He Yudong sat at the table, preparing to review his lessons. His younger brother ran over, holding a toy car, and said excitedly: "Brother, play with me for a while!"

He Yudong smiled and patted his brother's head: "Okay, but you can only play for a while, brother still has homework to do."

The younger brother nodded and sat happily next to He Yudong. The two brothers played with toy cars together, and their laughter echoed in the room. He Yudong looked at his younger brother's innocent smile and felt extremely warm and satisfied.

It was late at night, and the younger brother was so sleepy that he started to yawn. He Yudong said to him softly, "Brother, go to bed. You have to go to school tomorrow."

In the following days, He Yudong continued to be busy between work and family. He knew that despite the many challenges in life, as long as there is love and hope in his heart, he can overcome all difficulties.

Whenever he returns to the courtyard and sees the smiling faces of his neighbors and his younger brother, his heart is filled with strength. Although Xu Damao always likes to make trouble, with everyone's support, He Yudong believes that everything will get better and better.

It was snowing, and Xu Damao was pushing his bicycle and almost fell down, but He Yudong completely ignored him.

As winter arrives, the city is shrouded in a blanket of white. Snowflakes gently fall, covering the roofs, courtyards, and alleys of the courtyards. The whole world seems to be wrapped in a white blanket.

He Yudong stood in front of the window, looking at the heavy snow outside, feeling an indescribable tranquility in his heart. He likes snowy days because snow can make the whole world clean and temporarily cover up the troubles in people's hearts. He Yudong got up early today to buy some daily necessities. When he walked out of the house, he put on a thick cotton coat, a scarf and gloves, and walked towards the street in the cold wind.

The neighbors in the courtyard also got up early. Some were sweeping snow, some were making snowmen, and the children's laughter could be heard one after another. When He Yudong passed by Qin Huairu's house, she was making a big snowman with her children.

"He Yudong, good morning! It's so cold today, where are you going?" Qin Huairu asked with a smile.

He Yudong nodded and said with a smile: "Sister Qin, good morning! I'm going to buy some things. My family is short of some daily necessities."

"Be careful on the road, it's slippery in the snow." Qin Huairu warned.

"Don't worry, Sister Qin, I will be careful." He Yudong waved his hand and continued walking forward.
