Siheyuan: Tanjia Cuisine He Daqing, destroying Yi Zhonghai

When He Daqing first arrived at the Siheyuan, he felt extremely confused. He found that he was treated as a fool with intellectual problems by everyone. He tried to communicate with others, but no matter what he said, everyone looked at him with sympathy and pity. The people in the Siheyuan were very friendly to him, but at the same time they were also wary of him, fearing that he would do something out of line.

There are many families living in the courtyard, each with its own stories and troubles. The Wang family is a vegetable seller, leaving home early and returning late, and their lives are not easy; Aunt Zhang is a warm-hearted old woman who often helps neighbors resolve disputes; Uncle Li is a retired worker who likes to play with his old radio in the yard. In this environment, He Daqing gradually became familiar with everyone's daily life and personality traits.

Despite being treated as a fool, He Daqing did not give up hope. He decided to use his modern knowledge to change his fate. He began to secretly do some small experiments in a small corner of the yard, making some simple mechanical devices with crude tools. He made a simple water pump to water the flowers and plants in the yard; he also repaired Uncle Li's old radio, which made Uncle Li ecstatic.

As time went by, people in the courtyard began to look at this "fool" with new eyes. They found that He Daqing was not as mentally challenged as they thought. On the contrary, he had amazing wisdom and hands-on ability. Old Wang began to ask him about some mechanical problems, and Aunt Zhang would occasionally give him some small things to repair. He Daqing gradually won everyone's trust and respect.

However, He Daqing's modern knowledge is not omnipotent. He has to adapt to the limitations of this era. Without high-tech equipment or modern materials, he can only rely on the simple tools at hand and his own wisdom. Despite this, he never gave up. He firmly believed that he would find a way to return to the modern world one day, or at least live a life here without being laughed at.

He Daqing also met a girl who moved his heart, Xiaohong. Xiaohong was a kind and smart girl. Although she came from a poor family, she was always optimistic. She was full of curiosity about He Daqing and often came to chat with him. The two gradually developed feelings for each other. He Daqing wanted to tell Xiaohong his true identity, but he was afraid that she would not believe it or even be afraid. He could only bury it all in his heart.

During his days in the courtyard, He Daqing experienced many challenges and hardships, but he never gave up. He knew that only by persisting could he find his way out. No matter what the future holds, he will strive to live out his own splendor in this strange era.

One evening, He Daqing was sitting on a bench in the yard, repairing an old lighter. Xiaohong quietly came over, sat next to him, and asked softly, "Brother Daqing, why are you always so good at everything?"

He Daqing raised his head and smiled, "Xiaohong, I actually only understand some basic principles. With more practice, I will gradually get it."

Xiaohong looked into his eyes, her eyes full of curiosity, "Brother Daqing, where are your family members? They must be very proud of you, right?"

He Daqing's heart sank suddenly, and the image of his parents emerged in his mind. They had always doted on him, given him the best education and endless love. Thinking of this, his eyes became a little dim, "I... I don't know how they are now."

Xiao Hong noticed his mood change and patted his hand gently, "Brother Daqing, don't be sad. You will definitely see them again."

At this time, Lao Wang came back from outside and saw He Daqing and Xiaohong sitting together. He smiled and said, "Daqing, help me take a look at this kitchen knife. I accidentally chopped it on a stone today and it became blunt."

He Daqing took the kitchen knife and checked it carefully. "No problem, Uncle Wang, I'll sharpen it for you." After he said that, he stood up and walked to the toolbox and started sharpening the knife.

Xiaohong, who was standing next to him, looked at He Daqing's back with admiration in her heart. She secretly made up her mind to get to know this mysterious and talented man better.

A few days later, the courtyard was bustling again. Uncle Li's daughter, Li Mei, came back. She worked in another place and rarely went home. This time she came back with a lot of gifts, and everyone in the courtyard was very happy. Li Mei saw He Daqing and walked up to greet him: "You are Daqing, right? I heard that you are very capable and have helped our courtyard a lot."

He Daqing smiled shyly, "No, no, it's just a piece of cake."

Li Mei continued, "I heard you fixed my dad's radio. Thank you so much. My dad really likes that thing."

He Daqing waved his hand and said, "Uncle Li is a very kind person. I just tried my best to help."

At night, He Daqing returned to his hut and lay on the bed, thinking about his life here. Although it was very different from modern life, it also had a lot of warmth and beauty. He began to think that maybe he could find a new way of life here and find a balance.

In the following days, He Daqing continued to use his talents to help people in the courtyard solve various problems. He not only repaired things, but also taught everyone some simple maintenance techniques. People's views on him gradually changed, no longer treating him as a "fool", but as a true friend.

Once, there was a problem with the water well in Lao Wang's house, and no one knew what to do. After checking, He Daqing found that the water pump was broken. He spent an afternoon to fix the water pump, and the people in the yard were very grateful to him.

Aunt Zhang specially cooked a pot of hot dumplings and invited everyone to eat together. Everyone sat together and had a great time. Lao Wang raised his glass and said with a smile: "Daqing, today is really thanks to you. Come, have a drink."

He Daqing smiled embarrassedly, "Don't be so polite, this is what I should do."

At this moment, He Daqing felt the long-lost warmth of his family. He knew that although he was in a foreign land, he no longer felt lonely with these friends. He silently vowed in his heart to work harder to help everyone, while also looking for a way to return to his own era.

As the days passed, He Daqing gradually adapted to life here. He not only helped the people in the courtyard solve various practical problems, but also taught the children some scientific knowledge to stimulate their curiosity and interest in learning. Xiaohong and Li Mei also often came to him to chat about some daily trivia, and the three of them became friends who could talk about anything.

One night, He Daqing and Xiaohong were looking up at the stars in the yard. Xiaohong asked him, "Brother Daqing, do you have any special wish that you want to fulfill?"
