Siheyuan: Classic Siheyuan

Silly column?

It's He Yuzhu!!!

Chu Rongguang didn't expect that the male protagonist of the romantic courtyard would appear in such an identity.

The cook of the Red Star Steel Mill, the one who was called a fool by everyone in the courtyard, was actually a member of the Thirteen Young Men when he was young.

Chu Rongguang thought about it and wondered what He Yuzhu would look like in 50 years. However, he should be only or years old at this moment.

Didn't go home.

Chu Rongguang went straight to Nanluoguxiang.

The courtyard was similar, except that the door was a little old. Chu Rongguang walked in.

Most of the residents in the front yard were "passersby", so Chu Rongguang walked directly into the middle yard.

It’s a familiar scene, except that the courtyard at this moment was built more than ten years ago.

Before Chu Rongguang could go to the main courtyard, the door of the west wing was pushed open, and a man with glasses and a side-parted hair walked out with a fishing rod in his hand.

He pushed up the frame of his glasses: "Who are you looking for?"

Yan Fugui?

Chu Rongguang immediately saw the shadow of the third uncle who was so thrifty that he even spared no effort for his own children in his eyes and brows.

"I'm looking for He Yuzhu."

After taking a look at Chu Rongguang and seeing that he was slightly older than He Yuzhu, the third uncle Yan Fugui nodded and said, "I heard from his father these days that Shazhu didn't go to school. Hey, are you his classmate?"

"Ah."

Chu Rongguang nodded without further explanation.

"It's probably this time. He hasn't gotten up yet. This kid is not good at studying. I told his dad about it, but he didn't listen..."

Chu Rongguang just nodded at him. He didn't have time to listen to his nonsense and walked straight to the main courtyard. He wanted to see the real protagonist more now.

Behind him, Yan Fugui muttered, "What kind of person is this? He has no manners at all... I really don't know how this teacher calls me."

Stepping into the main courtyard, several major characters of the entire "Qin Man" live here.

On the left is the Jia family. However, according to the normal timeline, Qin Huairu has not yet moved in here, and this Bai Lianhua should have come a year later.

As for the house on the right, it is the home of the eldest uncle Yi Zhonghai. This uncle, whose future affairs are difficult to determine, should still be working hard for the Yi family's incense.

The main house in front of Chu Rongguang is He Yuzhu's house, or He Daqing's house. At this moment, He Daqing has obviously not left here yet.

Thinking about meeting He Yuzhu, Chu Rongguang felt somewhat inexplicably excited at the moment. After all, he also liked the TV series "Qin Man" very much.

When he arrived at the door of the He family, Chu Rongguang raised his hand, but before he put it down, the door opened.

A slightly bald man muttered, "If you don't want to go to school, then go to work for me. Don't stay at home soaking mushrooms for me all day. My He family doesn't want to support an idler like you!"

Chu Rongguang looked at He Daqing who was walking out of the house and nodded slightly. He Daqing looked him up and down and asked, "Looking for my son?"

"Ah."

"Humph! Not going to school in broad daylight is no good... Don't you think your family cares about it?"

In the room, He Yuzhu's voice rang out: "Okay, old man, just say less. Don't worry, I, He Yuzhu, won't eat you for nothing..."

As the voice was speaking, a boy of about seventeen or eighteen years old with a long melon-shaped face, slightly thin, wearing a cross-bar vest, black pants and cloth shoes with nail soles, walked to the door.

"You... looking for me?"

Chu Rongguang looked at He Yuzhu. After observing him carefully, he was sure that this was the Shazhu who was talkative, a little naughty, but devoted to Qin Huairu more than ten years later.

"Yu Zhendong asked me to come."

When He Yuzhu heard Chu Rongguang say this, his face was slightly startled, and then he said seriously: "Wait for me!"

After putting on a coat, He Yuzhu almost ran out and whispered, "Let's talk outside."

"What are you going for?"

He Daqing noticed that something was wrong with his son, but He Yuzhu ignored him and pulled Chu Rongguang out of the courtyard.

When they got outside, Chu Rongguang explained his purpose. He Yuzhu was also skeptical: "Why haven't I heard that Chen Li has a fourth brother?"

Chu Rongguang was too lazy to explain to him: "I am only responsible for delivering the message. It is up to you whether you want to go or not."

"Are you really not Liu Si's man?"

Chu Rongguang smiled and said, "If I were, do you think you would still be here talking to me now?"

"That's right...Okay, take me to see our boss."

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he saw Chu Rongguang had already turned and left. He hesitated for a moment, but still followed him. However, he picked up half a piece of cake and turned around and put it behind his back.

The two of them didn't talk on the way. When Chu Rongguang arrived near the mud house, he told He Yuzhu to find half a door panel.

Then he left.

It was already late in the afternoon when Chu Rongguang returned home.

The big pot contained the food that Wang Lanxiang had left for her.

After a quick bite, Chu Rongguang went back to the house and took a nap.

He was very tired this morning.

When he woke up, it was already around four o'clock in the afternoon. Wang Lanxiang got off work early. Chu Rongguang heard the sound of cooking in the main room, so he got up and washed his face.

Arriving at the main room, Wang Lanxiang heard footsteps and turned around to look: "Rongguang, you're awake...Laowu is so ignorant. As soon as you arrived, she..."

Chu Rongguang sat on a bench nearby and asked directly, "Mom, what's wrong with Liu Si?"

"Did she tell you?" Wang Lanxiang thought for a moment and continued, "This guy is a scoundrel. Once, your sister was stopped by a few hooligans after school. They said they were Liu Si's men. So your father and I were afraid that Lao Wu would suffer, so we asked your brother to pick her up every day."

Chu Rongguang nodded: "How about this, I have nothing to do now anyway, so I will be responsible for picking her up."

Wang Lanxiang nodded when he said that and said, "That's fine. Rongguang, you will have to work hard for a while."

"Mom, we're a family, so don't be polite to me."

Wang Lanxiang was somewhat moved by Chu Rongguang's words. She smiled and said, "I'll ask your father to buy a fish tonight, and we'll have a good meal together to welcome you."

In the 50 years since then, people in Beijing had not yet reached the point where they could only afford to eat three or two taels of bread, so although the conditions of each family were a little difficult, they had not yet reached the point of scarcity.

Chu Rongguang stood up and said, "Then I'll go pick up Lao Wu."

After walking out of the middle courtyard, before Chu Rongguang even walked out of the gate, the man with glasses who he saw when he came here last night also walked in carrying a cloth bag.

He glanced at Chu Rongguang and nodded slightly: "I heard that you are Master Chen's son in the countryside?"

When this person said the word "countryside", his tone became noticeably heavier, and Chu Rongguang said "hmm".

"I live in the front yard. My last name is Fan. You can call me Uncle Fan."

Chu Rongguang didn't like the way this man looked at him, as if he was guarding against a thief. However, the man was very familiar with his strict father, so he didn't show anything. He said, "Uncle Fan, I have something else to do," and walked out of the yard.

As soon as he walked out of the street, he felt like someone was following him. Chu Rongguang's ability was an intuition honed from thousands of tracking and counter-reconnaissance attempts.

Very accurate.

So after turning the corner, he hid behind a nearby telephone pole until the person who was following him came out.

Chu Rongguang stopped him directly: "Why is it you?"
