Siheyuan: Sending Shazhu into the call center, Yi Gu is useless

"Oh, Rufeng, you are so polite." Aunt Zhang happily took the basket and said, "Thank you, this is the first basket of red dates I harvested this year."

"You're welcome. Aunt Zhang, you've always been very kind to me." Chen Rufeng said with a smile, "I'll go back and make some red date cakes for my mother."

"That's great. Your mother will definitely like it." Aunt Zhang said with a smile.

Chen Rufeng said goodbye to Aunt Zhang and returned to his home. He opened the refrigerator in the kitchen, took out some ingredients and started to prepare the red date cake.

"Mom, I'm back." Chen Rufeng shouted.

"Rufeng, did you go to your neighbor's house to pick some red dates?" Mother asked in surprise when she saw the red dates in the basket.

"Yes, I want to make some red date cake for you." Chen Rufeng said with a smile.

"Oh, this child is really thoughtful." The mother patted Chen Rufeng's shoulder lovingly, "Go and make it. I can't wait to taste the red date cake you made."

Chen Rufeng smiled and started to get busy. He first washed the red dates and removed the pits, then mixed flour, eggs and red date paste to make a paste. Then he poured the paste into a mold and steamed it in a steamer.

The whole kitchen was filled with the aroma of red dates, which made people salivate. Chen Rufeng carefully took out the steamed red date cake and placed it on the chopping board to cool.

"Mom, the red date cake is ready." Chen Rufeng happily walked to the living room with the cake.

"Oh, it smells so good!" When the mother smelled the aroma, she couldn't help but drooling.

Chen Rufeng smiled and cut the red date cake into small pieces and handed one to his mother. His mother took the cake and put it in her mouth. The sweet and delicious taste immediately filled her mouth.

"It's delicious!" the mother praised repeatedly, "You are such a virtuous child."

Chen Rufeng was filled with happiness when he heard his mother's praise. He knew that the love and support of his family was the source of his motivation to keep moving forward.

In this ancient courtyard, every day is filled with warmth and joy. Chen Rufeng and his neighbors get along well, and the relationship between them becomes closer.

One day, Chen Rufeng and Wang Liang agreed to bask in the sun together in the yard. The sun was shining brightly, and the breeze blew. The flowers and plants in the yard swayed, exuding a pleasant fragrance.

"Rufeng, the weather is so nice today." Wang Liang leaned comfortably in the rocking chair, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, feeling happy.

"Yes, it's a great day for basking in the sun." Chen Rufeng said with a smile. He picked up a date and took a bite. The sweet juice flowed down the corners of his mouth.

"Oh, Rufeng, your dates look delicious." Wang Liang's eyes lit up, "Can I have a taste?"

"Of course." Chen Rufeng smiled and handed the dates in his hand to Wang Liang, "Here, try it."

Wang Liang took the dates, took a big bite, and nodded with satisfaction, "It's so delicious!"

"I just picked these dates. They are very fresh." Chen Rufeng said proudly, "Please let me try some of the dates you grow."

Wang Liang smiled, took out some dates grown at home from his pocket and handed them to Chen Rufeng.

"These are the red dates produced by my family, you can try them." Wang Liang said.

Chen Rufeng took the dates and looked at them carefully. They were indeed crystal clear red dates, exuding an enticing aroma.

He took a bite and it was filled with fruity aroma, sweet but not greasy, and delicious.

"That's great, Wang Liang. The red dates in your home are also delicious." Chen Rufeng exclaimed.

"Haha, thank you for the compliment." Wang Liang said with a smile, "Our red dates have always been very popular."

The two of them fed each other one by one, and their friendship became deeper. They chatted and laughed, tasting the delicious food from each other's homes, and a warm scene was played out in the courtyard.

"By the way, Rufeng, are you busy with work recently?" Wang Liang asked.

"It's OK. The project has been a bit busy lately, but I can still handle it." Chen Rufeng replied with a smile, "How about you, is your family business going well?"

"Well, fortunately, business has been good recently." Wang Liang nodded, "But my wife has been ill recently, and I am a little worried."

"Did you go to the hospital?" Chen Rufeng asked with concern.

"Yes, the doctor said it's just a minor problem and it will be cured with some medicine." Wang Liang sighed, "But I'm still a little worried."

"Don't worry, you have to take good care of her, she will recover soon." Chen Rufeng comforted.

"Yes, I will." Wang Liang nodded, a relieved smile on his face.

The two continued chatting, and the topic gradually turned to family life and future plans. They encouraged and shared with each other, and their friendship became stronger.

The sun gradually set and the sky gradually darkened. Chen Rufeng and Wang Liang stood up together, said goodbye to each other, and returned to their own homes.

In this quadrangle, every family has their own life, their own worries and happiness. However, in a corner of the quadrangle, there is a small courtyard with only one house. This is the world of Chen Rufeng and Wang Liang. They are the exclusive owners of this small courtyard.

On a sunny weekend, Chen Rufeng and Wang Liang made an appointment to have a barbecue in the yard to enjoy their rare leisure time. They prepared barbecue, vegetables and beer in advance, and everything was ready.

"Rufeng, light the charcoal." Wang Liang stood beside the grill in the yard, fiddling with the ingredients.

"Okay, I'll do it." Chen Rufeng picked up the lighter and lit the charcoal. The flames immediately jumped and illuminated the entire yard.

"Come, have a beer first." Wang Liang handed a bottle of beer to Chen Rufeng.

"Thank you, Wang Liang." Chen Rufeng took the beer and took a sip. The cool beer immediately made him feel refreshed.

The two sat on rattan chairs in the yard, sipping beer and chatting. They talked about work, family, future plans, and confided their worries and wishes to each other.

"You know, the company has more and more projects recently, and I can't handle it all." Chen Rufeng picked up a skewer of grilled meat and took a bite, "But I don't want to give up easily."

"Yes, that's how life is. You will always encounter various challenges." Wang Liang said, "But I believe you can overcome the difficulties and achieve greater success."

Chen Rufeng nodded, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart. Wang Liang's encouragement made him feel extremely warm and motivated.

"What about you? How is your family business recently?" Chen Rufeng changed the subject and asked with concern.

"Fortunately, business has been pretty good." Wang Liang said with a smile, "It's just that my wife has been ill recently, and I'm a little worried."

"Really? Are you feeling unwell?" Chen Rufeng asked with concern.
