Siheyuan: A Family of Loyal and Brave People

The next morning, Cheng Hao woke up from his sleep and raised his hand to grope around in the quilt. After touching a soft and warm body, he suddenly opened his eyes.

After staring at the woman beside the pillow for a long time, Cheng Hao finally realized that he was no longer alone, but a married man.

"Hmm~"

Xu Yun whimpered, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and despite her tiredness, got up and prepared to do the housework.

Today is the first day the couple moves into their new home. She can't stay in bed, otherwise she will be laughed at.

"Yun'er, it's still early, go to sleep for a while."

Cheng Hao held his wife and persuaded her softly.

Xu Yun gave Cheng Hao a resentful look. She was so tired because of what someone had done to her last night.

"How about you just rest at home today and I'll ask for a leave for you?"

Pushing his wife back into bed, Cheng Hao suggested again.

They now live near Xizhimen. It is convenient for Cheng Hao to go to work, but Xu Yun has to walk a long way to work. Xu Yun is in such a bad condition that it is too tiring for her to walk a long distance.

"I have already asked for leave in advance."

Xu Yun grumbled, complaining on the outside, but she felt very sweet in her heart.

"We just moved into our new home, and we still have a lot of things to buy."

"Then I'll take a day off and go with you."

Cheng Hao turned over and got out of bed, put on his clothes quickly, and kissed Xu Yun on the face before leaving the room.

"Just lie down at home and wait for me to come back."

After a quick wash, Cheng Hao went out of the yard, stretched, and breathed in the fresh morning air, feeling refreshed.

After traveling through the past few years, passing through gunfire and hail of bullets, and through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, today I have finally settled down and have a home.

Only after having his own family did Cheng Hao feel that he had truly integrated into this world.

……

After asking for a day off from the street office, Cheng Hao bought some buns and porridge on the way back to make breakfast to save Xu Yun from having to work any more.

When Cheng Hao returned to the yard, Xu Yun had already gotten up and was preparing breakfast in the kitchen.

"Yun'er, stop it. I bought breakfast."

Cheng Hao quickly called Xu Yun to stop and asked her to set the tableware so that they could eat.

Xu Yun looked at the meat buns in Cheng Hao's hand and asked in confusion: "I have all the family savings. Where did you get the money to buy the buns?"

"As a man, you must have some private money."

Cheng Hao put down the buns and porridge and said lightly.

He had a lot of private money, including hundreds of kilograms of gold, as well as Korean ginseng and other valuables, which were not convenient to take out.

"You are sincere."

Xu Yun shook her head, smiled indifferently, picked up a bun and was about to taste it.

Cheng Hao is a government official. He has to attend social events when he goes out, so it is reasonable for him to keep some money for himself.

"Slow down, be careful."

The temperature is high in summer, and the freshly baked buns cool down slowly and easily burn your mouth.

"Then help me try to see if it's still hot."

After hearing this, Xu Yun directly fed the bun to Cheng Hao's mouth.

Cheng Hao blew on the bun gently a few times, and waited until it cooled down a little before taking a bite.

"How about it?"

"It's still a little hot. Let me blow on it again."

Having said that, Cheng Hao stuffed the rest of the bun into his mouth in one gulp.

"Okay, you dare to lie to me..."

In the kitchen, the newly married couple were playing happily together.

……

After breakfast, the couple went to the street to buy furniture.

In fact, Xu Yun had already arranged the large furniture and daily necessities, and only some scattered daily items needed to be purchased.

Soon a morning passed, and Cheng Hao finally fully understood the shopping ability of women.

Xu Yun visited all the shops on the street. It often took her a long time to buy a small item, and most of her time was spent on the road.

Cheng Hao wasn't very interested in shopping, but since he had promised his wife, he had to keep up even if he had to crawl.

After tinkering for a whole morning, when the sun was high in the sky, Xu Yun finally looked a little tired. The two of them found a small shop on the street and sat down, preparing to eat something to fill their stomachs and continue the battle in the afternoon.

While waiting for the food to be served, Cheng Hao suddenly saw a familiar figure walking towards him, and he quickly stood up to greet him.

"Pillar, pillar, this way!"

"Brother Hao, why are you here?"

He Yuzhu heard the sound and trotted over.

"I just changed jobs these days and have a lot of things to deal with, so I haven't had time to go back to see you.

You don't blame me. "

Cheng Hao patted He Yuzhu's shoulder and smiled.

Cheng Hao didn't come to the house because he was busy with work and secondly, he didn't want to disturb He Yuzhu and his wife.

He Yuzhu has been away for a few years and finally returned home. He will probably have to stay with Qin Huairu for a while.

“How could I blame you?

I feel bad for not being able to help.”

He Yuzhu smiled embarrassedly, turned around and finally noticed the woman sitting next to him.

"Who is this……"

“This is Xu Yun, my love.

We are getting married this weekend, and I was planning to ask you to help cook the wedding banquet."

Cheng Hao introduced them to each other.

"Xu Yun, this is He Yuzhu, a brother from the same hospital as me, and from the same regiment as me. You can just call him Zhuzi."

"Hello, sister-in-law."

After not seeing each other for a few days, He Yuzhu didn't expect that Cheng Hao had actually managed to get married. He Yuzhu was really happy for him.

"Hello, Zhuzi."

After the three of them greeted each other, Cheng Hao asked as soon as they sat down: "Zhu Zi, how have you been recently? Is everything okay in the courtyard?"

"It's all good. I was just bored at home, so I was looking for a job."

He Yuzhu has sufficient funds and is not short of money.

However, he is a person who cannot sit still. Staying in the hospital doing nothing is a torture for him. It is more fulfilling for him to come out to work.

“I just went to Fengzeyuan Building to apply for a job this morning, but the result is not out yet.

I plan to go to Cuihua Building again in the afternoon."

"With your ability, it won't be difficult to find a big restaurant, and you will definitely succeed immediately."

Cheng Hao is very clear about He Yuzhu's cooking skills. His skills are comparable to those of the chefs of large restaurants and his techniques are absolutely excellent.

“Thank you for your good words.

Huairu is still waiting for me to go home and cook. Let's talk about it another day."

He Yuzhu saw that Cheng Hao and his wife were enjoying their own private time and had no intention of disturbing them. He said a few words and then turned and left.

"Okay, I'll go to your house for dinner next time."

They are brothers who have been through thick and thin together, so Cheng Hao is not pretentious.

I'm busy accompanying my wife today and don't have time to entertain you. Let's get together again in a few days.

Not long after He Yuzhu left, the food ordered by Cheng Hao was served on the table.

The weather was very hot at noon, and neither of us had much appetite after shopping all morning. We ate something casually, rested for a while, and then continued shopping.

The two of them wandered outside until sunset before returning home.

Feeling the coolness in the courtyard, Cheng Hao couldn't help but praise his wife's vision again. This courtyard was chosen just right.

In particular, the independent bathroom allows the couple, who have sweated a lot and are sticky all over, to take a comfortable bath at home without having to queue up in the bathhouse.
