Siheyuan, integrating everything, cultivating the city

Li Xiangqian smiled and said, "As long as you like it. Come, drink some red bean soup to warm your body." He picked up a bowl of steaming red bean soup and handed it to Lou Xiao'e. Lou Xiao'e took it, took a sip, and a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

"Brother Li, I really miss you during this period. Every time I encounter difficulties, I think of your encouragement to me, and my heart is filled with strength." Lou Xiao'e said in a low voice, with tears in her eyes.

Li Xiangqian looked at her with emotion and held her hand: "Xiao'e, I have always missed you, too. No matter where you are, I will always support you and accompany you."

They chatted for a long time by the fire, sharing their experiences and feelings. Li Xiangqian felt that Lou Xiao'e had not only achieved success in her work, but had also become more mature and confident. He was extremely proud and pleased with her.

Late at night, Li Xiangqian brought Lou Xiao'e to her room, where everything was neatly prepared. Lou Xiao'e looked at this familiar and cozy room, her heart filled with gratitude and warmth. She said softly, "Brother Li, thank you for everything you have done for me. I am really touched."

Li Xiangqian smiled and said, "As long as you are happy, everything is worth it. Have a good rest and we will talk again tomorrow." He closed the door gently and walked back to his room, his heart filled with peace and happiness.

The next day, the snow stopped and the courtyard was covered in white. Li Xiangqian and Lou Xiao'e walked together in the courtyard, enjoying the beautiful snow scene. They talked about past memories and future plans, their hearts full of hope and expectation for life.

Li Xiangqian and Lou Xiao'e were walking in the yard, looking at the white snow, their hearts were filled with peace and happiness. They talked a lot about life and the future, and before they knew it, a long time had passed. Li Xiangqian suddenly remembered that he hadn't made dinner yet, so he said, "Xiao'e, it's getting late, let's go home and eat."

Lou Xiao'e nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, Brother Li, I'm hungry too. What delicious food are you going to make today?" Li Xiangqian looked at her, his heart filled with warmth and joy: "Today I prepared some home-cooked dishes, including your favorite braised pork and stir-fried vegetables. Let's go back and cook together."

Back in the house, Li Xiangqian walked into the kitchen and started preparing dinner. Lou Xiaoe followed him in and helped wash and cut vegetables. The two worked in harmony. The aroma of food filled the kitchen, and Li Xiangqian felt extremely satisfied. Although it was just a simple home-cooked meal, everything became extraordinarily beautiful with Lou Xiaoe's company.

"Brother Li, you are really good at cooking. Every time I eat the food you cook, I feel very warm." Lou Xiao'e said with a smile while cutting vegetables. Li Xiangqian replied with a smile: "Xiao'e, as long as you like it. I think cooking is actually like life. As long as you do it with your heart, you can bring happiness to people."

Dinner was soon ready, and Li Xiangqian and Lou Xiao'e sat together at the table, enjoying this warm dinner. Li Xiangqian watched Lou Xiao'e eat happily, and his heart was filled with satisfaction. He raised his glass and said softly, "Xiao'e, let's toast to your time at home."

Lou Xiao'e raised her glass, tears of emotion flashing in her eyes: "Brother Li, thank you for your care and concern for me all the time. I am really grateful and lucky to know you."

After the two clinked glasses, Li Xiangqian felt a warm current in his heart. He knew that although there were many challenges and difficulties in life, as long as they were accompanied by each other, everything would be worth it.

After dinner, Li Xiangqian and Lou Xiao'e cleaned up the kitchen together, and then sat by the stove to chat. It was still snowing outside, but the house was warm as spring. Li Xiangqian looked at Lou Xiao'e, his heart filled with gratitude and happiness.

"Brother Li, you know what? I've always envied you for living a peaceful life here." Lou Xiao'e said softly, with a hint of yearning in her eyes. Li Xiangqian looked at her, a little puzzled: "Xiao'e, aren't you very successful over there? Why do you envy me?"

Lou Xiao'e sighed and said, "Although my work is very successful, sometimes I feel that I am missing some sense of reality in life. Here, I feel a long-lost tranquility and warmth, and I really want to stay a little longer."

Li Xiangqian was moved when he heard this: "Xiao'e, no matter when you want to come back, this will always be your home. As long as you are here, I feel that life is full of hope and meaning."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Brother Li. I will remember your words and cherish every day here." There was a firm light in her eyes, which made Li Xiangqian feel a deep warmth and strength.

In the following days, Li Xiangqian and Lou Xiao'e spent many wonderful times together. They walked, chatted, and cooked together, and their lives became fulfilling and meaningful. Li Xiangqian found that he had not only found the purpose of life, but also found true happiness and satisfaction.

On a sunny morning, Li Xiangqian and Lou Xiao'e were basking in the sun in the yard. They sat on a stone bench, looking at the mountains and blue sky in the distance, their hearts full of expectations and hopes for the future. Li Xiangqian knew that although there were many unknown factors in life, as long as Lou Xiao'e was by his side, everything would become beautiful and fulfilling.

"Brother Li, we must work together to make this courtyard better." Lou Xiao'e said softly, with hope in her eyes. Li Xiangqian nodded and held her hand: "Xiao'e, I believe we can do it. No matter what the future holds, I will always be with you and keep going."

A few days later, the weather gradually warmed up and the snow in the courtyard began to melt. Li Xiangqian decided to go out for a walk to see if there was anything he needed to buy. As soon as he reached the gate of the courtyard, he happened to meet his neighbor He Yuzhu who lived not far away.

He Yuzhu is a warm-hearted person who is always willing to help others. Seeing Li Xiangqian coming out, he smiled and said hello: "Brother Xiangqian, long time no see, how have you been recently?"

Li Xiangqian smiled and responded, "Not bad. I've been busy taking care of the yard these days. Lou Xiao'e is back too, and we've done a lot of things together."

He Yuzhu's eyes lit up, and he asked with concern: "Lou Xiao'e is back? That's really good news. She is a capable girl. With her around, the courtyard will definitely be more lively."

Li Xiangqian nodded, feeling warm in his heart: "Yes, after Xiao'e came back, this place has really become a lot more lively. We cook and chat together, and our lives have become much more fulfilling."
