Siheyuan: I am reborn as a good person He Yuzhu

"Take a look, if there is no problem, you can sign it." Uncle Qian handed the contract to He Daqing. After reading it, He Daqing signed his name without hesitation.

"Okay, from now on, this house is yours." Uncle Qian said with a smile.

"Thank you, uncle." He Yuzhu and He Daqing thanked in unison.

"You're welcome. We're neighbors from now on, so we should help each other." Uncle Qian waved his hand and turned into the house.

The two looked at each other and smiled, both breathing a sigh of relief - the house issue was finally resolved!

"Brother, are we going to live here?" He Yushui asked nervously.

"Of course, this place is close to your school, so it's much more convenient to go to school." He Yuzhu said with a smile.

"But... this place is a bit shabby." Looking at the dilapidated courtyard, He Yushui seemed reluctant.

"Although it's a bit shabby, it's very quiet and the neighbors are nice, so I feel more at ease," He Yuzhu explained.

"Okay then." He Yushui nodded and agreed to the arrangement.

Afterwards, He Yuzhu and He Daqing began to clean the house, while He Yushui watched. Although the house was in disrepair, it was spacious and had two courtyards in front and back, which could fully meet their needs.

The person living in the front yard is an old man. He was disabled due to war injuries and has been living here ever since. He likes to plant flowers and grass every day and he is a very kind person.

The families behind are steel mill workers. Due to their busy work schedule, they rarely visit each other. This environment is very suitable for He Yuzhu. He likes quietness and hopes to have a quiet home.

After tidying up the house, He Yuzhu and He Daqing took He Yushui to buy some furniture and daily necessities and started to settle down in their new home.

For He Yuzhu, this move means a new starting point. He is looking forward to starting a peaceful and wonderful life here.

"Zhu Zi, what are you going to do with the house in the backyard?" An old man leaned on the doorstep and chatted with He Yuzhu while smoking his pipe leisurely.

Glancing at the uncle, He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Uncle, you don't have to worry about this matter. I have already figured it out in my mind."

"You are a young man with many changing ideas," the old man laughed twice, "but now that you have bought it, you must act with caution. After all, that place is not an ordinary residence."

He Yuzhu nodded and responded, "I also know that those residents have quite a strong background. Mr. Gan is an expert in appreciation and is quite famous in the antique market. It's best for us to stay away from them."

The old man sighed and said, "That's right, you must not underestimate them when dealing with them." Then He Yuzhu said that he knew his limits and would not make any mistakes. After a chat, the two said goodbye. He Yuzhu stared for a long time before returning to the house to continue thinking.

The next morning, He Yuzhu and He Daqing rushed to the street office early and successfully completed the relevant matters of property transfer, and both the main building and the auxiliary building were registered under He Yuzhu's name.

When he got home, he looked at the little world that would soon belong to him, and hope surged in his heart. He clearly realized that this was just the beginning, and he did not realize that the road ahead was full of ups and downs. In the evening, He Yuzhu invited the first and third uncles to have dinner with him.

When he was half drunk, he said, "Gentlemen, I am going to renovate the house in the backyard and rent it out."

The old man frowned and said, "It's very risky to do this. You should think carefully."

"That's right. These old residents are not easy to get along with. If you want to rent it out, you must obtain their consent first." The third uncle added.

With a smile on his face, He Yuzhu promised that he would communicate with Uncle Gan and make further arrangements.

Although the two uncles were very worried, they could not interfere too much. In the end, they could only hope that the young man would remain rational and handle the matter carefully.

The atmosphere at the banquet was relaxed and cheerful. After seeing off the two elderly people, He Yuzhu stood in the yard and looked up at the twinkling stars in the sky. "The road ahead is bound to be full of opportunities and accompanied by hardships and obstacles. But I believe that I can create a more brilliant future with my own strength."

It was the coldest time of the morning, when the neighbors had not yet gotten up, and it was the best time to go up the mountain to collect some waste to supplement the family income.

As soon as the sky got bright, the street gangs started to move around, and it was not so easy to find scraps at this time. In his previous life, He Yuzhu mainly made a living by picking up scraps, collecting scraps, and reselling second-hand items. In those years, he not only had a bad reputation, but was always short of money, so it was difficult for anyone to rent him a house.

Finally, the steel mill arranged a warehouse for him to live in for free. However, this warehouse didn't even have windows, and it was drafty. He had to wear cotton clothes to keep out the cold at night. Now, He Yuzhu finally has his own residence and no longer has to live in that poor warehouse. He couldn't help but feel excited when he thought about it. At this time, he walked out of the city while humming a little song happily.

At present, the population in the city is small, and the outside of the city is even more deserted and desolate, but this makes it easier for He Yuzhu to pick up waste. It is conceivable that with the rapid increase in population in the future, it will become difficult to find a place to pick up waste. After strolling around the outskirts of the city for more than an hour, He Yuzhu had collected a pile of waste, and then he turned back to the city. When he returned to the yard, it was already dawn.

After putting down the things in the backpack, he took out two steamed buns with pickles and ate them slowly, while paying attention to the situation in the yard. The current situation of this yard is somewhat similar to some old residential areas in later generations: everyone lives together, but the interpersonal relationships are different. Many residents in those old residential buildings in later generations do not know each other and have few contacts; in this large courtyard, although there is not much interaction on weekdays, everyone knows each other, and they see each other every day and have a certain degree of understanding of each other's living conditions. He Yuzhu was not a good person in his previous life, because he loved to brag and take advantage of others, and he would do some sneaky things from time to time, especially he often coveted the beautiful ladies in the yard, but he was incompetent and could not support himself, which made people in the same courtyard dislike him and despise him.

Now He Yuzhu has changed. He not only has his own house, but also has a stable job. Most importantly, he has activated something called "Xueba's Black Technology System" - which means that if he studies hard, he can win various rewards. With these rewards, He Yuzhu believes that he will be able to live a wonderful life.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai came out of the house carrying a broom and said, "Hey, Xiaozhu, you got up so early?"

"Haha, Brother Zhonghai, it's not too late for you!" He Yuzhu replied with a smile. "Are you going to clean?" Then he asked,

"Yeah," Yi Zhonghai nodded and said, "I've always been in charge of the sanitation of the courtyard. It's best to clean it at dawn. If you go out too late in the day, more people will leave things everywhere and it will be troublesome to clean them up."

"Thank you for your hard work." He Yuzhu said admiringly,

"It's not hard work, just helping out in the yard! By the way, Xiaozhu, I heard that you went on a blind date yesterday? How was that girl? Was she interested in you?"

"Brother Zhonghai, stop joking. We haven't even started yet!" He Yuzhu said somewhat embarrassedly.

"Hey, what's wrong with that? Men always want to get married and start a family when they reach a certain age. It's normal!" Yi Zhonghai said nonchalantly, "Besides, you have a house and a job now, so you are fully qualified to get married!"

"Brother Zhonghai, please stop teasing me." He Yuzhu smiled bitterly, "I know my current situation best. Which girl would be willing to marry me?"

"That's not necessarily true." Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said, "In this era, many girls pay special attention to housing and work when choosing a partner. You already have these two things, so as long as there is a girl who is not too picky, you should be able to get along with her."

"Okay, Brother Zhonghai, stop comforting me." He Yuzhu sighed, "I know what I am doing. I am really not suitable."

"Okay, okay, don't be so dejected, and go have breakfast quickly. If you're late, all the delicious food will be snatched up." Yi Zhonghai patted He Yuzhu's shoulder and said.

"Okay, I'll go." He Yuzhu nodded, turned and walked towards the cafeteria.

They live in a large compound, which is the family quarters of the steel mill. Most of the people living here are the workers of the steel mill and their families. The steel mill has its own canteen, which provides a rich variety of dishes every morning.

 Rewriting of the subsequent part

Everyone in the courtyard was shocked by the news of He Daqing's sudden marriage, and the news spread like wildfire in the courtyard. He Daqing had long been a mysterious man, and everyone was curious about his every move. However, this time he didn't tell everyone until after the wedding, which caused dissatisfaction among the residents.

However, everyone knows that they cannot afford to offend He Daqing, after all, he has an unusual background. The neighbors usually keep a low profile, fearing that they will get into trouble. The deaf old lady is also a single elderly person. Although she has some ideas in her mind, she can only accept the status quo silently.

In fact, He Daqing's concern for the deaf old lady was not due to any other reasons, but out of his inner sympathy. He knew that it was not easy for the old lady to live alone, so he often sent her some daily necessities and food. Although the old lady was grateful, she also knew that if there was a conflict at this time, she might not even get this little care.

Every time the delicious food such as braised pork and boiled chicken was delivered, the old lady would think of He Daqing's kindness. She felt that He Daqing was not a bad person, but his life was too complicated for ordinary people like them to understand.

Yi Zhonghai was still frightened by the incident with the White Widow last time, and was worried that his actions would be known by He Daqing. He knew that He Daqing's power should not be underestimated, and if he got angry, the consequences would be disastrous. So he could only swallow his anger and dare not challenge the other party rashly.

Fearing that the White Widow had leaked the secret to He Daqing, Yi Zhonghai became extra cautious. He was afraid that if he accidentally exposed a flaw, it might bring him endless trouble. Therefore, when dealing with matters related to He Daqing, he was also extra vigilant and did not dare to be careless.
