Siheyuan: Tanjia Cuisine He Daqing, destroying Yi Zhonghai

After walking for a while, He Daqing suddenly slowed down his pace, looked at the village in the distance that was gradually disappearing in the twilight, and said in a deep voice: "Zhu Zi, we picked so many peppers today, you must cook a delicious meal for everyone when we go back. However, I have something to tell you." His tone was a little more serious than usual, and even his footsteps seemed heavy.

He Yuzhu noticed something was wrong with He Daqing, and immediately stopped and turned to look at him. "Uncle, if you have something to say, just say it directly, don't hide it." He was used to He Daqing's words and behavior, and had never seen him so serious, so he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

He Daqing sighed, put down the basket on his shoulder, and looked at He Yuzhu with complicated eyes. He was silent for a moment, as if he was considering how to start, and finally said slowly: "Zhuzi, you know, our life is not too good, but it is acceptable. But I am not young anymore, and there are some things I have to tell you in advance."

When He Yuzhu heard this, his heart suddenly tightened, and he felt that what He Daqing was going to say next must be very important. He took a deep breath, nodded and said, "Uncle, you talk, I'm listening."

He Daqing looked at He Yuzhu's bright and expectant eyes, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart. He knew that the child had grown up, had a sense of responsibility, and was also responsible, but because of this, he had to make certain things clear, so that if something happened to him in the future, He Yuzhu would not be caught off guard.

"Zhu Zi, Yu Shui is still young, you have to take care of her more in the future." He Daqing's voice was low and earnest, "You are her brother, you have to act like a brother, don't let her suffer. She has lost her parents, and there are only the two of us left, you can't let her suffer any more."

He Yuzhu was shocked when he heard this. He knew that He Yushui was his only sister and the only relative in the family, and he had a heavy responsibility, but now he felt heavy in his heart when he heard He Daqing say this. He looked up at He Daqing's slightly tired face and suddenly understood his concern.

"Uncle, don't worry, I will take good care of Yu Shui and won't let her suffer any grievances." He Yuzhu answered solemnly with a firm tone. He secretly swore in his heart that no matter what difficulties he encountered in the future, he would protect He Yu Shui and let her have a stable life.

He Daqing looked at He Yuzhu's determined eyes and put his worries aside. He knew that He Yuzhu had a strong character and was reliable, but some responsibilities were too heavy to bear, and he didn't want to put too much pressure on He Yuzhu. So he sighed and said in a slower tone, "Zhuzi, I know you are capable, but you have to do what you can and don't make yourself too tired. Let's take care of the family affairs together, and don't put all the responsibilities on your shoulders."

He Yuzhu felt a warm current in his heart when listening to He Daqing's words. He knew that He Daqing was concerned about him and didn't want him to bear too much burden alone. He smiled and said, "Uncle, I understand what you mean. Our family is a whole, and everyone has to contribute. I won't let myself get tired, and I won't let Yushui suffer any grievances."

He Daqing nodded, his eyes showing some relief. He patted He Yuzhu's shoulder and continued, "I feel relieved that you have this heart. Although Yushui is young, he is also a sensible child. You two brothers and sisters should support each other. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, we will work together to find a way to solve them."

He Yuzhu nodded heavily, feeling a sense of responsibility. He knew He Daqing's expectations of the two siblings, and he also understood the responsibility on his shoulders. He secretly made up his mind to let He Yushui live a good life in the future and never let He Daqing down.

"Uncle, let's go back quickly. I must cook you a delicious meal today." He Yuzhu tried to make the atmosphere more relaxed and suggested with a smile.

He Daqing nodded and smiled. He picked up the basket again and walked towards home with He Yuzhu. Their steps were a little lighter than before. Although they still had some heavy thoughts in their hearts, they were ready to face the future.

On the way home, He Daqing's thoughts returned to He Yushui. He knew that this little girl had been very fragile since she lost her parents. She looked well-behaved and sensible on the surface, but in fact she was full of anxiety. He was worried that He Yushui would be more affected by the changes in her family in the future, so he hoped that He Yuzhu could shoulder the burden of the family and protect his sister.

"Zhu Zi, your sister is still young, and sometimes there are things she won't say, but you have to be more careful and don't let her keep the grievances in her heart." He Daqing advised earnestly. He knew that He Yushui was a sensitive child and would not easily reveal many things.

"Uncle, I understand. I will pay more attention to Yu Shui's mood in the future and try to make her happy." He Yuzhu was also touched. Thinking of He Yu Shui's big eyes that often showed a hint of sadness, he couldn't help but feel distressed. He secretly vowed to spend more time with his sister in the future and not let her feel lonely and uneasy.

The two walked and talked all the way. The sky gradually darkened and the lights in the village began to light up. Back home, He Daqing watched He Yuzhu busy pouring peppers into the kitchen and preparing dinner. He felt warm in his heart. He knew that although this home was simple, it was still full of life with He Yuzhu's efforts. Life may be difficult, but as long as there is love and responsibility in your heart, you can hold up the sky.

Dinner was quickly prepared, simple but full of homely flavor. He Yuzhu walked out of the kitchen carrying the hot dishes, looking at the delicious dishes on the table, feeling a sense of accomplishment. He put the last dish on the table, looked up and said to He Daqing: "Uncle, today's dishes are all grown by us, you must eat more."

He Daqing smiled and nodded, then sat down and started eating. He Yushui also came over and sat aside obediently, watching her brother and uncle's actions with a hint of relief and satisfaction in her eyes. Although she was young, she could also feel the warm atmosphere of the family.

"Today's dishes are good, Zhuzi, your cooking skills are getting better and better." He Daqing praised, his tone full of approval for He Yuzhu.

"Uncle, as long as you like it, we will eat the vegetables you grow every day in the future." He Yuzhu responded with a smile, feeling satisfied. He knew that such a simple life, though ordinary, made people feel very down-to-earth.
