Siheyuan: Learning to be the sixth

He Yuzhu looked at Tian Weiguo and Sister Xiuqin, who looked like they had already discussed it, so He Yuzhu didn't say anything more.

"Old Tian, ​​then you go, and try to come back for the New Year. Mo Xuan and his wife are not at home, otherwise my sister-in-law will blame me."

"Zhu Zi, Mo Xuan called and said that he might come back with Xin Xin to celebrate the New Year this year. Xin Xin is pregnant."

When talking about her son and daughter-in-law, Xiuqin's face was full of smiles, which diluted a lot of the feeling of separation brought by Tian Weiguo's trip to the south.

"Oh, sister-in-law, this is a great event. You're going to be promoted soon."

After congratulating, Lou Xiaoe glanced at He Xiao who came out to join in the fun and said, "He Xiao, your brother Mo Xuan is going to be a father soon. When are you going to bring my daughter-in-law back to me?"

You know what, He Yuzhu felt a little anxious when Lou Xiaoe mentioned that. Although he didn't say anything, He Xiao really wanted to say, "He Jiaran isn't a child anymore~", but he didn't dare.

He Yuzhu seemed to know what He Xiao was thinking. He glared at him and scared him so much that he found an excuse and ran away.

In He Yuzhu's heart, he was very happy when he took other people's flower pots, but he would be depressed to death if others took his flower pots.

Xiuqin took Lou Xiaoe's hand and comforted her: "Xiaoe, why are you in such a hurry? Ping'an is so handsome and a top student. He won't have trouble finding a wife."

As she spoke, she pulled Lou Xiaoe aside to chat about family matters, leaving space for He Yuzhu and her man to talk.

He Yuzhu saw everything that Sister Xiuqin did and admired her from the bottom of his heart. Not only did Sister Xiuqin stay with Lao Tian for more than ten years, she also learned the social etiquette of the capital very quickly. In He Yuzhu's opinion, at least 60% of the credit goes to Sister Xiuqin, the good wife, for Lao Tian's current success.

"Old Tian, ​​let me remind you that the South is full of opportunities and temptations. If you do anything to let down my sister-in-law Xiuqin, I will kill you..."

Tian Weiguo also knew that he owed Xiuqin too much in this life, so he was very calm when faced with He Yuzhu's reminder.

"Zhu Zi, don't worry, I won't do anything to let Xiu Qin down. Please tell me what else I should pay attention to~"

So next, the two of them...

The next day, He Yuzhu personally drove Tian Weiguo to the train station, but Sister Xiuqin did not go. In her words, going there would be of no use other than adding to the sadness.

Wei Junjian helped to get the train tickets. Li Jiahao could have done it, but Commissioner Li has now been promoted to Standing Committee Member Li. Although he can only serve for one term, in order to let the old man complete his term smoothly, Li Jiahao has now become a lot quieter.

He rarely even went to the garment factory, even though the shares were in Yu Shui's name.

Everyone has their own opportunities. I don't want to interfere too much in other people's lives.

Watching the train go away, He Yuzhu shook his head, let his mind clear for a while, then started the car and drove home.

As soon as He Yuzhu stopped his car, Xiao Song, the new postman in charge of Tongluo Ancient Lane, rode over on his bicycle with a smile on his face and said:

"Director He, there is a package for you."

"Xiao Song, where did the package come from?"

"Director He, I'm from Shanxi, and the sender's surname is Zhang."

As soon as He Yuzhu heard it, he knew it was sent by Grandpa Zhang, and his heart was warmed. He and Grandpa Zhang really had a tacit understanding. The package he sent with the clothes should soon reach the old man's hands.

"Xiao Song, thank you for sending me the package. Take this box of cigarettes~"

"Director He, I'll be welcome then. Thank you~"

The postmen come and go, but the He family remains. This is what every new and old postman in charge of Tongluo Ancient Lane specifically reminds when taking over. This is because He Yuzhu never looks down on others, and most importantly, he is generous.

After signing, He Yuzhu took the package, said goodbye to Xiao Song, and returned home.

When he opened the package, he found Pingyao beef and wine that Mr. Zhang had specially prepared for He Yuzhu, as well as a letter personally addressed to He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu opened the handwritten letter from the old man. When he learned that Zhang Weiguo had recovered well and Aunt Cao could walk slowly without a cane, He Yuzhu was sincerely happy for the old man. His eyes became moist as he laughed...

He Yuzhu, in a good mood, finished reading the letter, put it away carefully, and went to accompany Lou's father for tea.

…………

Lou Xiaoming, who had recovered fully after two days of rest, was worried about his father, so he brought his whole family here at noon.

After Mr. Lou felt that his health had recovered a lot, he developed a common problem among old men, which is being stubborn and unwilling to admit that he was old.

"Boss, Zhuzi, you two don't have to stay with an old man like me every day. I'm fine now. Lao Yi and I can just drink tea and play chess at home. You two can go out for a walk."

Lou Xiaoming opened his mouth to say something, and his mother, who had come out to take a breath after reading, chimed in: "Boss, you haven't taken Jiaxin to visit Beijing yet, right? Take advantage of the good weather today and go out for a walk."

Hearing this, although Li Jiaxin was also tempted, she still smiled and took Lou's mother's arm: "Mom, we can go shopping anytime, there's no need to rush."

"Jiaxin, go ahead, or mom will be angry~"

Lou Xiaoming and his wife, who were suppressed by the two elders, had no choice but to look to He Yuzhu.

What could He Yuzhu say? He could only go along with the old man and the old woman.

"Brother, sister-in-law, let's just listen to our parents. I'll take you to Xiao'e's delicious dessert shop."

"Okay, I'll trouble you, brother-in-law~"

"Sister-in-law, we are a family in the capital, so there is no need to be so polite, otherwise it will seem strange."

"That's right, Jiaxin, you don't have to think so much at home. It's better to be simple and casual." Lou's mother is very satisfied with her daughter-in-law. The only thing she is not satisfied with is that she is too "proper".

"Mom, I'll change slowly. I also think life in Beijing is much more comfortable than in Hong Kong."

……

The few of them didn't drive, but just walked and talked until they arrived at the main store of Zhenchichi Dessert House.

"Xiao'e, big brother and sister-in-law are here~"

Lou Xiaoe, who came out upon hearing the voice, enthusiastically took his sister-in-law's arm and pulled her to walk around the store. From time to time, he picked up the signature pastries for Li Jiaxin to taste and asked her for some suggestions.

Lou Xiaoming, who doesn't like sweets, also took some without being asked. After eating a piece of the cake, his eyes lit up.

"Brother-in-law, the pastries here at Xiao'e are not simple. They are not inferior to those in Hong Kong."

Originally, He Yuzhu wanted to brag to his brother-in-law, but out of the corner of his eye, He Yuzhu happened to see an old acquaintance whom he had known for more than 20 years.

The person who came was none other than his own eldest son. Is this the final result of the iron tree blooming?
