Siheyuan: Rebirth of Liu Ergou

In Nanluoguxiang, there is an old courtyard. In the courtyard, there are blue bricks, gray tiles, and towering ancient trees. Time has left mottled traces here. On this day, the blizzard stopped raging, and the breeze was not dry. Several neighbors in the courtyard sat in the living room of Liu Yi's house, chatting about family matters. The most lively topic was the wedding of Liu Yi and Wang Fang.

Uncle Yi Zhonghai was a warm-hearted man. He pushed open the door with a warm smile on his face and a few boxes of cakes in his hands. "Oh, old lady, uncle, you are all here. Xiaoyi is a kid who is close to me, so I naturally have to pay attention to his affairs." Yi Zhonghai said as he put the cakes on the table, and a faint fragrance wafted out.

Hearing this, the old lady looked at Yi Zhonghai with a smile, "Old Yi, don't just talk, you have to take practical actions. Xiaoyi has been sensible since he was a child. Now he is getting married, how can we, as elders, not help him?"

Second uncle Liu Haizhong is a straightforward person. He snorted, "Old lady, what you said is wrong. Xiaoyi and I have a good relationship. Am I bad? I must also contribute to his marriage."

Several people started chatting in a lively and warm atmosphere. At this time, the third uncle Yan Bugui pushed the door open and walked in. His face was a little gloomy, as if he had something on his mind.

"Hey, Old Yan, what's wrong with you? Xiaoyi is getting married, why do you have this expression?" The second uncle Liu Haizhong asked directly.

Yan Bugui sighed, "Alas, it's still my Yan Jie Di. She's in Hong Kong and has refused to come back. Now Xiaoyi is getting married, but there's no movement from her side."

When the second uncle Liu Haizhong heard this, he was immediately amused, "Old Yan, you are worrying for nothing. Liu Yi has given Yan Jie Di a legitimate status. Although they are not together, Yan Jie Di has a place in Liu Yi's heart."

Yan Bugui's expression eased a little after hearing this. He nodded, "That's right, I watched Liu Yi grow up. I trust him when he does things."

At this time, the old lady at the side interrupted, "Okay, okay, let's not just talk about this. We have to discuss Xiaoyi and Wang Fang's marriage carefully. The wedding must be a lively one, so that the neighbors can see that the children of our courtyard are all promising."

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai immediately agreed, "Yes, yes, the wedding must be done well. I have already contacted several hotels, and we must pick the best one so that Xiaoyi and Wang Fang can get married in style."

In the following days, the neighbors of the courtyard were busy preparing for the wedding of Liu Yi and Wang Fang. Some of them helped to select wedding supplies, some helped to decorate the wedding venue, and some helped to prepare the wedding banquet. The whole courtyard was shrouded in a festive atmosphere.

Liu Yi and Wang Fang were also very busy. Not only did they have to choose wedding gowns, dresses, rings and other wedding items, but they also had to take wedding photos and prepare wedding speeches. Although they were busy, their faces were always filled with happy smiles.

Finally, the wedding day arrived. On this day, the courtyard was decorated with lights and colors, and the atmosphere was full of joy. Relatives and friends came from all directions to send their blessings to Liu Yi and Wang Fang.

The wedding ceremony was held in the hotel's banquet hall. Following the host's announcement, Liu Yi and Wang Fang walked into the venue hand in hand. They looked particularly dazzling in their custom-made wedding dresses and suits. The guests present all cast envious glances at them.

At the ceremony, Liu Yi and Wang Fang exchanged rings and delivered affectionate speeches, thanking each other for their company and support, and also thanking all their relatives and friends for their blessings and love.

After the ceremony, the guests began to enjoy the sumptuous wedding banquet. The table was filled with a variety of delicious dishes and exquisite snacks. Everyone ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

At the wedding banquet, the third uncle Yan Bugui raised his glass to congratulate Liu Yi: "Xiao Yi, you are the pride of our Siheyuan. I am also very happy that you are getting married. Come, let's have a drink!"

Liu Yi smiled and raised his glass, "Thank you, Uncle Yan. I will work harder in the future to let Wang Fang live a better life."

As night fell, the wedding was drawing to a close. Accompanied by their relatives and friends, Liu Yi and Wang Fang returned to their warm new home. Their faces were filled with happy smiles, as if the whole world was filled with hope and beauty.

In the courtyard, the neighbors also dispersed. They returned to their homes with satisfaction and joy, and continued their ordinary and warm lives. But they will remember this day in their hearts. Because on this day, they witnessed the happy moment of Liu Yi and Wang Fang, and also felt the warmth and love between neighbors. …

Liu Yi hugged his wife tightly in his arms as if he was guarding a rare treasure. His deep and bright eyes were full of unwavering light and tender affection. He leaned down slightly, got close to his wife's ear, and said slowly in a voice so soft that it seemed to blow away a feather: "Wife, we must do our best to treat the deaf old lady well! She is not only our respected elder, but also a great benefactor in our lives! Also, I have always wanted to accompany you to spend the rest of your life with the grandfather and the grandmother, and take care of them in their old age. After all, they have no children and are lonely, and from now on, we are their closest family!"

After hearing Liu Yi's words full of affection, the daughter-in-law's eyes moistened, and her heart was filled with endless emotion. She nodded heavily, indicating that she agreed with Liu Yi's idea. Because she knew very well that the man in front of her had always been such a loyal person, and the sincere and deep feelings for the deaf old lady and the uncle and aunt had long been integrated into his blood. So, like a docile and well-behaved kitten, she gently nestled in Liu Yi's warm and generous arms, and responded softly: "Don't worry, Comrade Liu Yi, I will definitely work hand in hand with you to take good care of their daily lives, so that they can enjoy a happy and fulfilling old age."

When Liu Yi heard his wife's considerate and affectionate answer, a warm current suddenly surged in his heart. He gazed at his beloved in his arms with gratitude, his eyes revealing indescribable love and relief. Then, he couldn't help but lower his head and gently kissed his wife's jade-like forehead, and said affectionately: "Thank you, my dear wife. It is my greatest blessing to have you by my side in this life!"
