Siheyuan: Mastery started in the 50s

The child looked at Wang Qiang in confusion, not believing his eyes. "Is this... is this true?" he asked, stuttering.

Wang Qiang nodded, "Yes, take it. But don't steal things again, okay?"

The child nodded repeatedly, with gratitude flashing in his eyes. "Thank you, brother!" he said happily, then turned and ran away.

Wang Qiang looked at the child's back and felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart. Perhaps this was a little bit of warmth in life. He took a deep breath and decided to continue to protect this warm courtyard so that everyone can find their own happiness.

Wang Qiang lived a simple but fulfilling life in the courtyard. Although some people were skeptical of him, he never cared about other people's opinions. He knew he was innocent, and he just needed to do his best and not care about other people's opinions.

One day, Wang Qiang was repairing his bicycle in the yard when he heard a chuckle behind him. He turned around and saw Lou Xiao'e standing there with a smile in her eyes.

"Wang Qiang, you are such a hardworking person." Lou Xiao'e walked up to Wang Qiang and said with a smile.

Wang Qiang smiled slightly, feeling a little warm in his heart. "Thank you for the compliment, ma'am. I'm just trying my best."

Lou Xiao'e's eyes flashed with admiration. "You are honest and kind, and you are very responsible in your work. I admire you very much."

Wang Qiang felt encouraged, knowing that his efforts had not gone unnoticed. "Thank you, ma'am. I just want to do my best to do what I should do."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and nodded, "Wang Qiang, you have a kind heart. I believe you will have a bright future."

Wang Qiang was moved when he heard this. He knew that as long as he persisted in his belief and faced the difficulties in life bravely, he would be able to move towards a bright future.

Wang Qiang was busy repairing a bicycle in the yard when he suddenly felt an inexplicable nausea, as if his stomach was churning. He stopped what he was doing and rubbed his forehead, trying to suppress the discomfort. However, the nausea became stronger and stronger, as if an invisible force was wreaking havoc in his body.

He looked up at the corner of the courtyard and found Qin Huairu standing there, her face pale, her hands covering her mouth, looking miserable. Wang Qiang's heart moved and he couldn't help but walk over.

"Sister Qin, what's wrong with you?" Wang Qiang asked with concern.

Qin Huairu saw Wang Qiang coming over and forced a smile. "Nothing... nothing, maybe I ate something bad." Her voice was weak and trembling, and she was obviously very uncomfortable.

Wang Qiang frowned, feeling a little worried. "Do you want to take a rest? I can help you find some medicine."

Qin Huairu shook her head, barely holding up her body. "No, I can handle it myself." Her voice was trembling, and it was obvious that she was trying to remain calm.

Wang Qiang looked at her and felt distressed. He knew Qin Huairu was a strong person who never showed weakness easily. At this moment, she had obviously reached her limit, but she still had to put on a smile, not wanting others to worry about her.

"Sister Qin, don't bear it. I'll go find some medicine for you." Wang Qiang said firmly. He decided not to let Qin Huairu bear this pain alone.

Qin Huairu looked at Wang Qiang's sincere eyes, and a feeling of gratitude welled up in her heart. She knew that Wang Qiang was a trustworthy person and she could rely on him. "Okay, then help me find some medicine."

Wang Qiang nodded, turned around and left to look for the medicine box. He thought to himself that he must find medicine that could relieve Qin Huairu's discomfort.

Soon, Wang Qiang returned to Qin Huairu and handed her a pill and a glass of water. "This is an antiemetic. You will feel better after taking it."

Qin Huairu took the medicine and looked at Wang Qiang gratefully. "Thank you, Wang Qiang, you are such a good person."

Wang Qiang smiled and shook his head. "This is what I should do. You should have a good rest. If you need anything, feel free to tell me."

Qin Huairu nodded and smiled with tears in her eyes. "Yes, I will."

Wang Qiang felt relieved when he saw Qin Huairu's condition improve. He knew he couldn't let her bear everything alone, so he decided to do his best to help her.

The next day, on a sunny morning, Wang Qiang and Bang Geng came to the Tofu Shop, a small tofu shop in the courtyard that produces fresh and delicious tofu every day for nearby residents.

"Brother Wang Qiang, are you here to help?" Bang Geng patted Wang Qiang's shoulder enthusiastically with a smile on his face.

Wang Qiang nodded, "Yes, I heard that Sister Qin had something bad to eat last night, so I wanted to come over and help."

Bang Geng frowned after hearing this, "Hey, what should we do? Sister Qin has been working very hard recently, we must not let her body suffer."

Wang Qiang's heart moved. He knew how important Qin Huairu was to Siheyuan and how much effort she had put into it. "We should try to help her share some of the work so that she can have a good rest."

As they talked, Wang Qiang and Bang Geng began to get busy. They worked in perfect harmony and in an orderly manner while grinding soy milk and pounding tofu. Although the work was heavy, they were full of energy and vitality.

Under Wang Qiang's leadership, the tofu workshop's production efficiency has been significantly improved. Fresh tofu is constantly coming out of the oven, the aroma is fragrant and mouth-watering.

"Brother Wang Qiang, you are such a capable person!" Bang Geng praised, "With you here, our work efficiency has greatly improved."

Wang Qiang smiled, feeling a little satisfied. "This is as it should be. As long as we work together, we can overcome all difficulties."

Wang Qiang and Bang Geng were busy all day, and the tofu workshop was filled with the aroma of beans, and the workload gradually decreased. The sun had slowly set, the sky was gradually getting dark, and the dim light cast mottled shadows in the workshop.

Wang Qiang felt a little tired physically, but his heart was full of satisfaction and joy. He knew that today's efforts were not only to help Qin Huairu, but also for the unity and development of the entire courtyard.

However, at this moment, an ominous premonition came to Wang Qiang's mind. He frowned, as if he sensed some kind of dangerous aura.

"Brother Wang Qiang, what's wrong?" Banggeng saw that Wang Qiang had a strange expression and couldn't help but ask curiously.

Wang Qiang took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner anxiety. "Nothing... nothing, maybe I'm too tired."

However, his heart was still filled with uneasiness. He didn't know why, but he could feel a strong sense of crisis, as if something bad was about to happen.

Just when Wang Qiang was feeling uneasy, there was a sudden commotion in the yard. Wang Qiang and Bang Geng looked at each other, and both had an ominous premonition.
