Siheyuan, integrating everything, cultivating the city

Li Xiangqian thought for a while, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Son, don't bother others, a few of us can do it. Although setting up a shed is a bit tiring, as long as you take it seriously and take it step by step, you won't make any mistakes." Although he said this, he did not dare to slack off in his heart. He handled every detail carefully, for fear of any negligence.

The sun gradually sets in the west, and the afterglow of the evening shines on their busy figures. The cucumber seedlings in the field are dyed a gentle orange by the sunset. The bamboo frame built by Li Xiangqian gradually takes shape, and the shade cloth is also laid out. The whole cucumber field is rejuvenated with new vitality under his careful arrangement.

Soon, the shed was finally built. He Xiaomei looked at the huge shed with admiration and joy in her eyes. She couldn't help but hold Li Xiangqian's hand and said excitedly: "Brother Li, you are amazing! I have never seen such a solid shed. Our cucumbers will definitely grow big and good in the future!"

Li Xiangqian listened, smiled and patted her head, with some tenderness in his tone: "Little sister, this is just the beginning, we still need to take good care of it later. You can't be lazy, we have to work hard together, and when the harvest comes, we can enjoy the results together."

Aunt He and He Daer looked at the cucumber field, which had been completely renovated, with gratitude and expectation in their hearts. Aunt He walked up to Li Xiangqian and gently patted him on the shoulder, her tone full of gratitude: "Xiangqian, you have done a great job. With this shed, our lives will definitely get better and better. You are really a lucky star for our family."

Li Xiangqian smiled slightly after hearing this, with some humility in his eyes: "Auntie, you are too kind. I just hope that we can live a good life together. We built this shed together, and we have to take care of it together in the future. When the cucumbers are harvested, life will definitely get better and better."

Li Xiangqian returned home, thinking about how to arrange the next things after the shed was built. The sunshade shed for the cucumber field was finally built steadily, but he knew that building the shed was only the first step, and the subsequent farm work such as watering, fertilizing, pest control, etc. could not be neglected. Especially since Aunt He is old, although He Daer is willing to work, he still needs more guidance, and although the younger sister is young, she is full of energy and only needs proper guidance and training. Thinking about this, Li Xiangqian silently made a detailed plan in his mind. He planned to make good arrangements to maximize the fruits of the He family's labor and make these cucumber seedlings grow more lush and strong.

As soon as they returned to the house, Li Xiangqian called Aunt He and Daer He together, and Xiaomei also came over naturally, and the four of them sat around the table. Under the light, everyone's face was a little tired, but they all had a hint of expectation for the future.

Li Xiangqian cleared his throat and spoke slowly: "Auntie, son, sister, we have built the shed now, and we need to take good care of it. No matter how well the cucumber seedlings grow, they still need daily care. Auntie, you are old, so you should take care of yourself more. Let us three young people do the yard work, and you can just help watch over it from the side."

Aunt He listened and nodded slightly. Although she felt that she could still do some work, she also knew that Li Xiangqian's arrangement was for her to rest, so she accepted it. She sighed softly and said, "Xiangqian, I know you are doing this for my own good, so I won't be so stubborn. But you also know the situation of our family. We can't put all these tasks on you alone."

Li Xiangqian nodded and smiled, "Auntie, don't worry. We can work together and cooperate. I know what's going on. Today I just want to arrange everything so that the work in the cucumber field can go on smoothly." After that, he turned to He Daer, with some instructions and expectations in his tone, "Daer, you are usually very strong, so the heavy work of watering and fertilizing will be left to you. I will prepare the necessary fertilizers and pesticides in advance and tell you how to use them. Don't underestimate these tasks. Too much or too little fertilizer will affect the growth of cucumbers, so you must be careful."

He Daer listened, nodded heavily, patted his chest and said: "Brother Xiangqian, don't worry, I will definitely follow your arrangements and will not be careless. I will take care of the watering and fertilizing."

Li Xiangqian looked at He Daer's serious face and felt relieved. He knew that although Daer didn't talk much, he was reliable and dependable. As long as someone led him, he would be able to do a good job.

Then, Li Xiangqian looked at his younger sister again, his tone gentle but serious: "Little sister, when you come back from school, you can help me check the cucumber leaves to see if there are any disease spots or insects. Although these things seem simple, they require careful observation. Once the cucumber leaves are diseased, they must be dealt with immediately, otherwise they will spread to other seedlings."

He Xiaomei nodded rapidly, her face full of excitement and seriousness: "Brother Li, don't worry! I will take a close look and tell you immediately if I find any problems!" Her heart was filled with pride and expectation, and she felt that she could finally contribute to this cucumber field and was no longer just a child.

Li Xiangqian looked at her seriousness and nodded with a smile. His younger sister was naturally careful, so it was perfect for her to observe leaves and find pests. He was secretly glad that he came to this courtyard, which could not only help them, but also allow them to learn some new knowledge and gradually get their lives back on track.

Then, Li Xiangqian began to explain in detail the usage and precautions of pesticides. Pests and diseases are his biggest concern. These cucumber seedlings have just grown out and could be destroyed if they are not careful. The timing and dosage of pesticide application, as well as the angle and position of spraying, all require special attention. He knows that talking about these details too much may make people dizzy, but he insists on explaining them over and over again to make sure everyone understands every detail. After each step, he would confirm whether everyone is clear, especially to He Daer, and repeatedly remind him.

Aunt He listened quietly, and her heart gradually calmed down. She felt that with Li Xiangqian leading the way, the He family's future was no longer confused. She looked at his focused face and felt that he was a reliable young man. Thinking of this, she gently patted Li Xiangqian's shoulder and said gratefully: "Xiangqian, if it weren't for you, Auntie really didn't know how to deal with the cucumber field. You are really a benefactor to the He family."

Li Xiangqian listened, smiled slightly, and said modestly: "Auntie, don't say that. We can live a good life if we work together. With your and everyone's help on the cucumber field, we will definitely be able to grow good cucumbers."
