I am doing well in the Siheyuan

After getting off work in the evening, Ye Ming rode his bicycle back to the courtyard where Old Lady Long lived.

After locking his bicycle, he walked into Long Shuhua's room. When the old lady Long, who was lying on the bed, saw Ye Ming, she couldn't help but say, "My dear grandson, you're back." Ye Ming smiled and replied, "Yes, I'm back, grandma."

Long Shuhua nodded and continued, "Let's have dinner. Jingru has already prepared it." "Okay." Ye Ming replied.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Ming washed his hands, then sat down on both sides of the dining table with Old Lady Long and began to enjoy dinner.

Just when Ye Ming and Old Lady Long were halfway through their dinner, the door was gently pushed open.

In an instant, Yi Zhonghai's figure came into view and he appeared in the house.

"Old lady, you are having dinner." Yi Zhonghai first greeted Long Shuhua, and then walked to Ye Ming's side.

"Ye Ming, there is something I want to hear your opinion on." After hearing this, Ye Ming put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands, looking confused.

"What's the matter, uncle?" Facing Ye Ming's question, Yi Zhonghai continued:

"Ye Ming, I intend to hand over the position of the eldest master to you."

Hearing this, Ye Ming was quite surprised and asked, "Master, how come you suddenly thought of passing the position of Master to me?"

At this moment, Ye Ming was full of confusion and couldn't guess what Yi Zhonghai meant by this.

In response, Yi Zhonghai explained: "Ye Ming, the truth is this: your prestige in the compound now far exceeds mine.

Furthermore, your way of handling affairs is also extremely steady.

Especially after seeing how you dealt with Xu Damao and Qin Huairu, I became more and more convinced that I should step down and let others take over."

After hearing Yi Zhonghai's response, a hint of understanding flashed in Ye Ming's clear eyes.

It turned out that Yi Zhonghai noticed that his prestige in the compound was growing, so he wanted to give up his position to him.

Understanding Yi Zhonghai's intention, Ye Ming responded: "Uncle, I'm sorry, I'm not interested in the position of uncle."

To be honest, Ye Ming had no intention of being the so-called master. In the courtyard where Old Lady Long lived, there were many trivial matters every day. If Ye Ming really took the position of master, he would probably have to worry about the trivial matters of the courtyard every night.

Therefore, Ye Ming, who was afraid of trouble by nature, decisively rejected Yi Zhonghai.

Hearing Ye Ming's firm reply, Yi Zhonghai was stunned. He obviously did not expect Ye Ming to reject him without hesitation.

After a moment, Yi Zhonghai advised again: "Ye Ming, please think about it again. In our compound, you are the only one who is most suitable to be the eldest uncle."

Yi Zhonghai sincerely hopes that Ye Ming can succeed him, and he firmly believes that if Ye Ming takes power, the compound will prosper day by day.

However, Yi Zhonghai's expectations will ultimately be dashed.

"I'm sorry, uncle. I really have no interest in being the uncle of the compound." Ye Ming clearly refused again.

Hearing this reply, Yi Zhonghai could not hide the disappointment on his face.

"Ye Ming, since you have no intention of being the boss, I won't force you."

"But can you please promise me that if the compound encounters a major change in the future, you can help me with advice, is that feasible?"

Seeing that Ye Ming was unwilling to take over as Mr. Yi, Yi Zhonghai took a step back and begged, hoping that Ye Ming could provide him with decision-making advice when the compound faced major events.

Ye Ming did not refuse Yi Zhonghai's request.

"Of course, that's no problem, Master. If there's any major event in the compound in the future, as long as I'm here, I'll definitely offer you advice and suggestions."

Hearing Ye Ming's words, Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and responded.

"Okay, it's a deal."

"Okay, Ye Ming, you and Old Lady Long can continue to enjoy your dinner."

"I go first."

After saying that, Yi Zhonghai said goodbye to Old Lady Long and turned to leave.

After Yi Zhonghai left, Ye Ming picked up his chopsticks and continued to have dinner with Long Shuhua.

After dinner, Ye Ming chatted with Old Mrs. Long for a while and then went to rest.

On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, the sky was clear and it was a rare good day.

Today is the wedding day of He Yuzhu and Lou Xiaoe.

Eight o'clock in the morning, in Ye Ming's courtyard living room.

Ran Qiuye asked Ye Ming, holding a gift in her hand.

"Ye Ming, what do you think of the wedding gift I chose for Sister Xiao'e?"

Ye Ming heard what Ran Qiuye said and replied with a smile:

"Qiuye, Sister Xiao'e will definitely like the gift you picked, don't worry."

Zhou Xiaobai on the side also chimed in:

"Ye Ming is right, Sister Qiu Ye, you spent two hours picking out gifts in the department store yesterday."

"Sister Xiao'e will definitely like this gift that I carefully selected."

Ran Qiuye secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Ye Ming and Zhou Xiaobai's affirmation and replied:

"Then I'll feel at ease."

Seeing Ran Qiuye's relieved look, Ye Ming couldn't help but smile.

Then, he said to Zhou Xiaobai and Ran Qiuye:

"Xiaobai, Qiuye, it's almost time, let's go."

Ran Qiuye and Zhou Xiaobai responded:

"it is good."

"it is good."

After saying that, Ye Ming, Zhou Xiaobai and Ran Qiuye each took the gifts they had prepared, rode their bicycles, and headed straight for Lou Xiao'e's home.

The wedding of He Yuzhu and Lou Xiao'e was not held at He Yuzhu's home, but at Lou Xiao'e's home.

This was Lou Xiao'e's idea. She didn't want to meet anyone she didn't want to meet at her wedding.

It goes without saying that the people Lou Xiao'e doesn't want to see are definitely Xu Damao, Qin Huairu and others.

Lou Xiao'e's home is located in the Dongcheng District of Kyoto, about five kilometers away from Ye Ming's courtyard.

Ye Ming, Ran Qiuye and Zhou Xiaobai rode for more than 20 minutes and arrived at Lou Xiao'e's home.

Lou Xiao'e's home is a two-story building, and the layout of the house is quite similar to that of Zhou Xiaobai's home.

Ye Ming, Zhou Xiaobai and Ran Qiuye parked their bicycles and walked into the yard carrying their gifts.

At this time, there were seven or eight tables in the yard, on which were placed fruits, melon seeds and other items.

There were several stoves in the corner of the yard, and Ma Hua and several chefs from the steel rolling mill were standing next to them chatting.

When He Yuzhu saw Ye Ming and the others, his eyes lit up, and he immediately walked quickly to Ye Ming and said with a smile:

"Ye Ming, you are here."

Hearing He Yuzhu's words, Ye Ming's eyes did not avoid He Yuzhu.

Today, He Yuzhu is wearing a plain suit, his hair is neatly combed, his leather shoes are shiny, and he looks full of energy.

"I'm really in high spirits when I'm happy. Brother Zhuzi, you look much more handsome today than usual."

Ye Ming secretly admired He Yuzhu's mental state.

Putting away his thoughts, Ye Ming said to He Yuzhu: "Brother Zhuzi, happy wedding."

As soon as Ye Ming finished speaking, Zhou Xiaobai immediately interrupted: "Brother Zhuzi, hello, I am Ye Ming's girlfriend, Zhou Xiaobai. I wish you a happy wedding."

Ran Qiuye, who was standing next to Ye Ming, also said, "Brother Zhuzi, hello, I am Ran Qiuye, and like Xiaobai, I am also Ye Ming's girlfriend. I wish you a happy wedding."

He Yuzhu was stunned when he heard what Ye Ming, Zhou Xiaobai and Ran Qiuye said. He really didn't expect there would be such a lot of information. He knew that Zhou Xiaobai was Ye Ming's girlfriend, but when did Teacher Ran also become Ye Ming's girlfriend?
