Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 268 Liu Lihua’s Education
The sun sets over the western mountains and the sky suddenly becomes dark.

With the last trace of the sun, He Yuanchao successfully arrived at Chen Cheng's house on Dongsi West Street.

After entering the courtyard and parking his bicycle, He Yuanchao carried his things and just walked to the door when someone opened the door of Chen Cheng's house from the inside with a creak.

"Comrade He, you are here. Sister Liu has been looking forward to you for a long time."

After the female staff member of Chen Cheng's house greeted He Yuanchao warmly, she quickly turned back and shouted loudly into the room: "Sister Liu, Comrade He is here."

"It's coming, it's coming, I guess it's about time."

As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Lihua, who was speaking, appeared at the door with a smile on her face.

Smiling and nodding to the staff, He Yuanchao said to Liu Lihua who came out: "It's such a cold day, what do you think you are doing out here?"

Hearing this, Liu Lihua ignored He Yuanchao and glanced behind him before saying, "Where is Zhang Min? Why didn't I come with you?"

"My mother-in-law said she was feeling a little unwell today, so Zhang Min went back to take a look."

After casually asking about work matters, Liu Lihua led He Yuanchao into the living room after he hung up his coat.

Seeing He Yuanchao acting like a scoundrel, Liu Lihua couldn't continue the scolding words on her lips. She glared at him with a smile, then turned sideways and said: "You know it's cold, why don't you go in quickly? What are you doing standing there?" ?”

Before He Yuanchao could finish his words, Liu Lihua interrupted him with a look of disapproval.

After sitting down on the sofa, He Yuan glanced around and said with a smile, "Godmother, Minister Chen hasn't gotten off work yet?"

She came empty-handed every time, and she didn't change her mind no matter how many times she said it. Liu Lihua was too lazy to waste time talking to him about this matter.

After He Yuanchao finished speaking, he saw Liu Lihua frown slightly and quickly smiled and said: "Okay, godmother, don't worry about it. I've already called you. It's not serious..."

"Whether it's serious or not, you, the son-in-law, should go see her first. My matter here is not urgent."

You must be hungry after riding for a long time. Let's go, let's go eat first. "

Seeing a look of worry on He Yuanchao's face when he spoke, Liu Lihua quickly added: "Okay, let's not talk about it anymore.

But we can't talk about this matter with Liu Lihua anymore, otherwise we might get a mother-like education.

"It's such a cold day that I've been here, so you can't just push me back without letting me in, right?"

"Okay, after all this trouble, the problem is all my fault."

With that said, he stood up and called He Yuanchao to walk to the dining table.

When He Yuanchao saw that Liu Lihua had changed the subject, he knew better than to say anything about waiting for Chen Cheng, and followed Liu Lihua to the dinner table quietly.

Glancing at what He Yuanchao put on the cabinet at the door, Liu Lihua gave him a sidelong glance without saying a word.

It was okay not to mention this, but Liu Lihua became angry when she mentioned it.

Are the old couple having a conflict?
Seeing that Liu Lihua's words were full of resentment, He Yuanchao muttered something in his heart and said with a smile: "Godmother, you can't say that. Such a big Ministry of Industry has so many things, how can Minister Chen, the head of the family, do so much?" Are you worried?"

Saying these things in front of the juniors is of no use, except to make them worry, and it will not change anything at all.

After hearing this, He Yuanchao muttered in his heart, and did not dare to reply. He responded, carrying his things with a smile and followed Liu Lihua into the house.

"I am a big cadre. I go to meetings here or there all day long. How can I remember that I have a family?"

Liu Lihua understood the truth. As soon as she said what she just said, she actually felt a little regretful in her heart.

The food on the table was not sumptuous, but it contained both meat and vegetables.

In addition to the braised pork, the remaining three dishes are basically He Yuanchao's favorites. It can be seen that Liu Lihua put a lot of thought into them.

This godmother really deserves it for nothing. Not only can she help with big things, but she also cares about me even in the small details of life...

"Yuanchao, sit down and eat! What are you doing standing there?"

Seeing He Yuanchao staring blankly at the food on the table without moving for a long time, Liu Lihua, who was the first to sit down on the chair, couldn't help but ask.

"Yes! Yes! Let's eat now." He Yuanchao, who had come back to his senses, agreed, and without any politeness, he pulled out the chair next to him and sat on it.

Now that I have approved of this godlike relationship in my heart, if I continue to be polite about everything, not only will I feel coquettish, Liu Lihua may also feel that I am alienated from her.

There were no outsiders, and neither mother nor daughter mentioned drinking. They sat quietly at the dining table and ate.

Liu Lihua usually doesn't eat much, but today when she saw He Yuanchao eating three bowls of rice, she couldn't help but eat a lot more than before.

"Are you full with Yuan Chao? If not, just have another bowl. You are not allowed to pretend at your godmother's place."

Seeing He Yuanchao put down his bowls and chopsticks after finishing three bowls of rice, Liu Lihua, who had been full for a long time, hurriedly said.

"I really can't eat anymore."

He Yuanchao touched his belly and said with a bit of exaggeration: "The braised pork cooked by godmother is so delicious. If my stomach wasn't really disappointing, I would have had to have another bowl of rice."

"You can be as poor as me!"

Seeing that He Yuanchao didn't seem to be pretending, Liu Lihua stopped trying to persuade him. After scolding him with a smile, she asked the staff to make tea.

When the couple was sitting in the living room again drinking tea, Liu Lihua told He Yuanchao the purpose of calling him here.

"Yuanchao, do you still remember the soldier whose leg you broke, right?"

Not long after the incident, when Liu Lihua mentioned it, He Yuanchao's first reaction was that there was something going on in the Jun family.

"Godmother, is Junzi's family looking for someone to blame?"

"That's not what happened."

Seeing He Yuanchao's solemn expression, Liu Lihua quickly put down her tea cup and explained: "Isn't your security department going to be upgraded together with the steel rolling mill? Jun Zi's family arranged for him to be in your security department.

Junzi's mother means that she wants you to take care of him. "

After hearing what Liu Lihua said, He Yuanchao was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled and said: "Godmother, with the connections between Junzi's family, there is no way I can arrange a job in Kyoto.

This has to be shoved under my nose. Is there any other purpose? "

Although he roughly guessed Liu Lihua's thoughts, based on his relationship with Wang Lusheng, He Yuanchao didn't want the soldiers to come to defend him and disgust him.

"What purpose?"

When He Yuanchao saw Liu Lihua looking at him with a half-smile, he didn't have time to think too much. He opened his mouth and said: "Either you go to the security department to trouble me, or you want to grab my pigtails."

"That's all?"

Seeing He Yuanchao say two things that didn't count as excuses, Liu Lihua couldn't help but ask with a straight face.

"Anyway, it's the weasel giving New Year's greetings to the chicken - he doesn't have any good intentions."

"childish!"

She knew what He Yuanchao was thinking, but Liu Lihua did not expose it. She changed her angle and said seriously:
"Since Junzi's mother has found me for this matter, I guess she has already made a deal with her.

Having said that, even if they are yin and yang, as long as our family's influence is still there, they will not be able to change the world.

As for you, take this opportunity from Junzi to deepen your connections. Who will have the last laugh depends on your own methods.

When aiding Korea, you must always remember that in Guanzhong, there are only eternal interests and no eternal enemies. "

After Liu Lihua finished speaking, she saw He Yuanchao's contemplative look, obviously listening to her words, and couldn't help but nodded secretly.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether a person is smart or stupid. The most terrifying thing is being stubborn.

She picked up the tea cup and took a sip of water. Seeing that He Yuanchao had almost digested it, Liu Lihua smiled and said, "I've finished talking about the military son. My godmother has another private matter that I want you to help me with."
