Siheyuan: Rebirth of Liu Ergou

On a winter afternoon, Liu Yi lazily lay on the sofa in the living room, his eyes gently falling on his wife Liu Ying who was busy with housework. Suddenly, he had an idea, a playful smile appeared on his lips, and he said softly: "Hey, aunt, how about we organize a family gathering? Get all these relatives and friends together and have fun."

Liu Ying heard this, without stopping her movements, just glanced at him, with a look of both doting and teasing. She slowly approached, then suddenly accelerated, and pounced on Liu Yi like a naughty kitten, "biting" him, but in fact she was just pinching his cheek lightly, laughing so hard that her body shook. Liu Yi raised his hands in an exaggerated surrender, and the two of them made a decision while laughing and playing.

"Little brat, if you dare to call me aunt again, I'll show you how I'm going to deal with you. I have given birth to five children for you. Are they your brothers and sisters?" Liu Ying was amused by her own words. Liu Yi looked at his wife awkwardly and was speechless.

So, Liu Ying took out the invitation and wrote the invitation letter, and asked Liu Yi to send a sincere invitation to Chen Xueru, Xu Huizhen, Qin Huairu and Lou Xiaoe. Soon after the invitation was delivered, it received a lot of responses, and everyone was full of expectations for this sudden gathering.

On the way home, Liu Yi fantasized about having so many wives sleeping in the same bed with him, what a carefree life that would be!

The day of the party finally arrived, and the gate of the courtyard slowly opened, as if unveiling a dusty memory. As soon as they stepped into this world, everyone stopped involuntarily and was deeply attracted by the scene in front of them. The ancient buildings were scattered in an orderly manner, and the blue bricks and black tiles revealed the accumulation of years. The courtyard was full of greenery and the fragrance of flowers was overflowing, as if they had stepped into a fairyland isolated from the world. Everyone's eyes were shining with surprise and admiration, and they couldn't help but sigh that they had fallen in love with this place.

Liu Yi, the "unlucky" chef of this party, was busy in the kitchen wearing an apron. Although he complained that he was "unlucky", he was very happy in his heart. Whenever he looked up through the cracks in the window and saw the women he loved in the yard laughing or talking, the warmth and happiness made him feel that all the busyness was worth it.

Cutting vegetables, cooking, stewing soup, every step contains his love for his family. Sweat slid down his forehead, but the smile on his face became brighter. He thought to himself, isn't this the best life? With your lover by your side and friends by your side, what could make you feel more satisfied and happy than this?

As the delicious dishes were placed on the table, the atmosphere of the party reached its climax. Everyone sat together, and the laughter and conversation intertwined into a warm melody. Liu Yi sat aside, watching this scene, and his heart surged with an unprecedented sense of happiness. He knew that all this "bad luck" was actually the most precious gift given to him by fate.

Looking at the drunken wives, Liu Yi helped them all onto the specially made dragon bed made of golden nanmu wood. His smug look was discovered by Liu Ying, who was half drunk and half awake.

Liu Yi hummed a little tune, soaked in the bathtub for a while, and then enjoyed the happiness of having many wives.

Just as Liu Yi was about to put on his bathrobe, he suddenly heard a noisy sound outside, which made him nervous. He quickly put on his bathrobe and hurried out to see what was going on. When he came to the living room, he found that several women were fighting for the right to use the toilet. Looking at their quarrels, Liu Yi shook his head helplessly, thinking that this was really a headache! In this case, he decided to solve his own problem first.

When Liu Yi returned to the bedroom, he was surprised to find that none of the women who were supposed to be lying on the bed were there. He felt confused and looked for them everywhere. Finally, he found them in the living room, where they were sitting together, chatting. It turned out that all this was done by Liu Ying. Not only did she wake up the other women, she also made a pot of strong tea for everyone to sober up.

Liu Yi felt a little disappointed. He had been looking forward to spending a good time with them, but now he could only watch them chatting. However, he did not show his dissatisfaction, but quietly walked to the sofa and sat down, joining their chat. As time passed and the night deepened, Liu Yi gradually felt sleepy. He couldn't help yawning, and after saying good night to the women, he got up and left the living room and went back to his room to rest.

Lying on the bed, Liu Yi closed his eyes, and his mind kept replaying every bit of what he had experienced today. He felt full of happiness and satisfaction. Although he failed to realize his wish of sleeping together, he felt extremely lucky to be able to spend such a wonderful day with these beloved women. With these sweet thoughts, Liu Yi gradually fell asleep with a happy smile on his face.

Liu Yi got up early in the morning to make breakfast for these bad women, wontons, scallion pancakes, and a few side dishes. Then he called out to each woman one by one, "Get up! The sun is shining on your butt!" Liu Yi gently patted each woman's shoulder and called out softly. The women rubbed their sleepy eyes and muttered, "Why are you calling us so early in the morning?" "That's right, I want to sleep a little longer..."

Liu Yi looked helpless and had to beg them to get up, even promising to prepare a hearty breakfast for everyone. Hearing that there was something delicious, the women got up reluctantly and followed Liu Yi to the restaurant to enjoy a delicious breakfast.

Watching the women wolfing down their food with gusto, Liu Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Although these women sometimes give him a headache, it is undeniable that they also add a lot of fun to his life.

After the meal, Liu Yi suggested: "The weather is so nice today, why don't we go out for some fun?" The women readily agreed, and the group went out shopping happily.

They walked hand in hand in the streets and alleys of the city, bathing in the warm sunshine and enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way. The women were like a group of happy birds, chirping non-stop and laughing like silver bells from time to time. Liu Yi walked quietly beside them, with a happy smile on his face, quietly enjoying the warm atmosphere of the moment.

Before they knew it, they came to a lively snack street. The women were instantly attracted by the various delicacies, their eyes lit up, and they couldn't wait to pull Liu Yi forward to check it out. Seeing this, Liu Yi smiled dotingly and generously bought them many special snacks.

Everyone sat together, eating and chatting, with laughter echoing in the air. At this moment, it seemed as if all the troubles had left them, leaving only endless joy and warmth.

On this beautiful afternoon, Liu Yi and his women spent an unforgettable time together. Their lives may be ordinary, but the love and warmth contained in them are so precious and make people feel happy.
