Siheyuan: A journey of mountains and rivers

He Yuzhu was touched, and a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes. He reached out and held Ran Qiuye's hand, and said softly: "Qiuye, thank you. Your words make me feel much more at ease."

The two held hands tightly, their hearts filled with warmth and hope. He Yuzhu decided not to let his worries constrain him anymore. He wanted to try to understand Ran Qiuye better and try to make himself happy.

As the days went on, He Yuzhu and Ran Qiuye became closer. They shared every bit of life and faced difficulties and challenges together. He Yuzhu gradually discovered that Ran Qiuye was not only a kind girl, but also had a strong and wise side. She was always able to give him the greatest support and comfort when he needed it most.

One day, He Yuzhu was busy at work when he suddenly received a call from Ran Qiuye. The voice on the other end of the phone was a little nervous: "Brother Yuzhu, something happened to me at home, can you come over to help?" With a tense heart, he immediately put down his work and rushed back to the courtyard. When he arrived at Ran Qiuye's house, he found several strangers standing at her door, arguing with Ran Qiuye.

"Qiuye, what happened?" He Yuzhu walked over and asked with concern.

When Ran Qiuye saw He Yuzhu, a trace of relief flashed in her eyes. She explained: "These people said they wanted to take back the house I rented, but I still had a few months left on the lease, but they suddenly wanted to kick me out."

After listening to this, He Yuzhu frowned and looked at those people coldly, saying, "Why are you kicking us out? The contract clearly states that there are still a few months of lease left. It's unreasonable for you to do this."

When several people saw He Yuzhu, they looked a little unnatural, but still said firmly: "This is the decision of our boss, we are just following orders."

He Yuzhu sneered and said, "Okay, then call your boss over. I want to see what he says."

Several people looked at each other, not daring to argue anymore, and left in disgrace. Ran Qiuye breathed a sigh of relief and looked at He Yuzhu gratefully: "Brother Yuzhu, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what to do."

He Yuzhu looked at her gently and said, "Qiuye, don't be afraid of anything. I will always be by your side."

A trace of tears flashed in Ran Qiuye's eyes, and she nodded, her heart filled with emotion and happiness. She knew that He Yuzhu was not only her support, but also the one in her heart.

One morning, the courtyard was still filled with a light morning mist. He Yuzhu got up early to prepare breakfast. As soon as he walked out of the door, he heard Jia Zhang crying in the courtyard. Her voice was shrill, with deep despair and anger, making the whole courtyard seem particularly depressing.

He Yuzhu frowned and walked over quickly. He saw Jia Zhang sitting on the ground with messy hair and tears in her eyes. She kept slapping the ground and shouting, "Oh my God, why are you so unfair!"

The neighbors in the yard also came out to watch, and everyone looked at each other, not knowing what had happened. He Yuzhu stepped forward and said, "Jia Zhang, what happened to you?"

When Jia Zhang saw He Yuzhu, she became even more agitated. She pointed at her door and cried, "My house was robbed! I clearly locked the door last night, but when I woke up this morning, I found that all the valuables in the house were gone! God is trying to kill me!" Her brows were furrowed, and she felt a little uneasy. He knew that although Jia Zhang was usually harsh, this kind of thing would be heartbreaking for anyone. He walked over to Jia Zhang and comforted her, "Jia Zhang, don't worry, we will find a way. Have you called the police?"

Jia Zhang cried and shook her head: "I reported it, but the police came and couldn't do anything. They said they had to wait for the investigation. I felt so sad!"

He Yuzhu's heart moved, he looked back at the neighbors who were watching, and said, "Everyone has heard that Jia Zhang's house was robbed. We, as neighbors, cannot stand idly by. Let's all work together to see if we can find some clues."

The neighbors nodded and expressed their willingness to help. Some went to check every corner of the yard, and some asked if anyone heard any unusual noises last night. He Yuzhu and several young and strong neighbors began to look for suspicious traces around the courtyard.

Ran Qiuye saw this and stepped forward to help. She whispered to He Yuzhu, "Brother Yuzhu, I'll go ask the surrounding shops to see if anyone has seen anyone suspicious. He looked at her gratefully and said, "Okay, Qiuye, be careful. Tell me if anything happens."

Ran Qiuye turned and left, her heart full of worry and responsibility. She knew that although Jia Zhang was usually mean, this matter was indeed serious. If no clues were found as soon as possible, no one would feel at peace.

Time passed by minute by minute. He Yuzhu and his neighbors searched carefully around the yard and finally found some strange footprints in the corner of the wall behind the yard. The footprints were very shallow, but it was vaguely visible that they were from an adult man. "Look at these footprints, there's something wrong." A neighbor pointed to the footprints on the ground and said.

He Yuzhu squatted down and took a closer look. He had an idea: "These footprints should have been left last night. We have to follow this road and maybe we can find more clues."

Several people continued to search along the direction of the footprints, and finally found a worn-out piece of clothing in an alley not far away. He Yuzhu picked up the clothes and found some dirt and grass leaves on them, which were obviously dropped when he fled in a hurry last night.

"This piece of clothing was most likely left by the thief. We must tell the police as soon as possible." He Yuzhu said, with a surge of hope in his heart.

At the same time, Ran Qiuye also brought back an important piece of news. She asked in a nearby shop that someone saw a suspicious man wandering around the courtyard last night, looking very nervous. The owner said that the man was very suspicious and he said he was willing to go to the police station to testify. "Ran Qiuye said, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes. He decided to go to the police station to report the situation immediately. He and Ran Qiuye went to the police station with the clues and witnesses they found, and explained the situation in detail to the police. After hearing this, the police immediately launched a further investigation.

A few hours later, the police finally brought good news. After investigation, they successfully captured the suspicious man and found some of Jia Zhang's lost property on him. When Jia Zhang heard the news, she was so excited that she burst into tears and kept thanking He Yuzhu and the neighbors.

"Yuzhu, thank you so much. If it weren't for your help, I really don't know what to do." Jia Zhang said with a sob.
