Siheyuan's opening rejection of the elderly care group

On the other side, Chen Weidong and his wife stopped He Yuzhu and said, "Brother Zhuzi, thank you for what happened today. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to explain it clearly."

"It's not a big deal. We live in the same yard. I will definitely help as long as it makes sense," He Yuzhu said politely.

"It's late today, come to my place tomorrow and I'll treat you to a drink," Chen Weidong invited He Yuzhu.

"It's no big deal. Do I need you to treat me to a drink? Don't mind. Come with me now. Xu Damao and I will have a drink later. Come together." He Yuzhu was just trying to win over Chen Weidong. Isn't this a chance?

"That's so inappropriate. It's my turn to treat you," said Chen Weidong.

"Stop nagging and let's go," He Yuzhu pulled Chen Weidong away.

Chen Weidong's wife waved her hand and asked her to go home first, and asked her to bring a bottle of wine from home. Then she followed He Yuzhu and Xu Damao to Xu Damao's house.

"You two sit here, I'm going to prepare the dishes," He Yuzhu handed Chen Weidong to Xu Damao and went to the kitchen.

While the two were not paying attention, he took out a piece of pork and vegetables from the space, and also took out some peanuts, stir-fried three side dishes, fried a plate of peanuts, and put them on the table in about 20 minutes.

"Da Mao, bring your bottle of wine," He Yuzhu shouted to Xu Damao after arranging the dishes.

"You live in my house and you have to drink my wine, He Yuzhu, didn't you say you would treat us?" Xu Damao came out with a bottle of Fenjiu.

"Brother Zhuzi, my wine is not as good as yours," Chen Weidong also came over with a bottle of Erguotou sent by his wife.

"You're welcome. Damao and I were just joking. All you need is some wine," He Yuzhu said with a smile.

After the three of them sat down, they ate and chatted. Chen Weidong picked up the wine on the table, refilled He Yuzhu and Xu Damao's glasses and said, "Thank you, Brother Zhuzi, for what happened today. If it weren't for you, with the difficult Jia family and Yi Zhonghai's favoritism, our family would definitely suffer."

"Weidong, you are too polite. Although we don't interact much in normal times, you are also a smart person. Let's help each other. And it was Director Li who took care of it today," He Yuzhu held the wine and looked at Chen Weidong.

Chen Weidong immediately understood that He Yuzhu knew that it was his wife who found the street, but he also accepted him, so he drank the wine in his hand.

Xu Damao also said, "We still have too few people. Weidong, you are younger than us. Try to win over people of similar age who are trustworthy. Although Yi Zhonghai has stepped down today, he has been the boss of Siheyuan for so many years. There are still many people who support him. He will definitely stir up trouble."

"I agree with Damao's point of view. There are three uncles in our courtyard. The third uncle is honest now. The second uncle is a fool. He can do anything to become an official. We should be careful of him. The first uncle is a hypocrite. He appears to be righteous on the surface, but he may not be the same in private. If we unite to change the atmosphere of the courtyard, we can live a better life," said He Yuzhu.

"Okay, brothers. I know what to do. I will observe slowly, find the right people, and win them over. Just leave this matter to me," Chen Weidong assured.

After this drinking session, the three of them reached a consensus on the future. They drank until about nine o'clock, and then Chen Weidong returned to his home with a staggering step.

He threw the drunk Xu Damao back onto his bed, and then He Yuzhu went back to his room to sleep.

Time passed day by day, the house was renovated, and the smell was left there for a few days. Today, the brother and sister did not go to work, and He Yuzhu prepared to put the furniture in place. Looking at the clean and bright house, and the layout that was close to that of later generations, and it was a courtyard house in the city center, he was extremely satisfied. Now all he needed was a wife. After so many years, he had come to terms with it and it was time to find a wife.

Yu Shui ran out of her room and said, "Brother, the house is decorated so beautifully. I will decorate it well. When I get married, I will give this house to my nephews and nieces to live in."

Hearing what He Yushui said, He Yuzhu was stunned for a moment and said, "This is your house. After you get married, this will also be your house and it will belong to you forever. I will always keep a room for you at your parents' house."

He Yushui was so moved when she heard what He Yuzhu said that she shed tears. Housing was in short supply these days and all the girls were like water spilled once they were married. I have never heard of anyone who could have her own house in her parents' home.

"How come you, such a grown-up girl, cried like a little kitten? You don't look pretty at all," He Yuzhu hurriedly comforted her while looking at the rain.

"Okay, wipe your tears and come out with me. We'll go get the furniture back. If you go too late, I'll return the furniture you picked to the store," He Yuzhu said as he pushed the cart out.

"you dare,"

He Yushui wiped her tears and hurriedly followed him out.

I went to the trust store, found the original service staff, and asked them to find someone to deliver the pre-ordered furniture to the courtyard.

He Yuzhu looked around the Trust Store again and found a Vacheron Constantin watch. Yushui saw a walnut music box and liked it very much. He bought it and gave it to Yushui together with the watch.

Then he bought a phonograph and some records. On the way back, He Yuzhu bought two trays of meat buns and a few bottles of soda at the supply and marketing cooperative. He agreed to deliver the bottles to him the next day. It was only because the people at the supply and marketing cooperative knew He Yuzhu, otherwise they would not have allowed him to do so. Then they returned to the courtyard.

Looking at the furniture being carried in and out, and at the newly renovated house of He Yuzhu and his sister, Jia Zhang cursed in a low voice at the door of her own house, "These things should be given to our family. Instead of giving them money as a loss to these two families who have lost their entire families, it would be better to leave them for my eldest grandson to use when he gets married."

The three aunts in the front yard, Weidong's wife in the back yard, and several residents in the yard helped He Yuzhu and his sister to tidy up the house and put the furniture in order. After everything was done, everyone looked at the house of He Yuzhu and his sister, especially He Yuzhu's. It had two floors, a kitchen, and a toilet. The room was paved with tiles and had double-layered glass, which was very soundproof. Everyone was envious.

Chen Weidong's wife looked at He Yuzhu's house and became even more determined. She must find a daughter-in-law from her own family for He Yuzhu.

After everyone was done, He Yuzhu brought a tray of steamed buns from the kitchen and said, "Aunties and sisters, I won't cook today. This is a tray of meat buns I bought outside. I just heated them up. There's also soda. If you're tired, sit down and have a taste together."

Although they wanted to eat the meat in the buns, they refused, saying that neighbors should help each other.

He Yuzhu gave each person two meat buns and a bottle of soda without any explanation. They said they would give him the bottle in the morning, and then they all went home. After all, no one was willing to buy soda easily, so those who had children took it back for their children to drink.

He Yuzhu and Yu Shui said that we should have meat buns at noon to fill our stomach first, and then go out to eat tonight to celebrate.

"I want to go to Donglaishun to eat shabu-shabu," He Yushui said, raising his hand.

"Okay, let's go to Donglaishun," He Yuzhu nodded and agreed.
