Siheyuan: Rebirth of a comfortable life starts with Shazhu

Aside from the Wang family matter, the two brothers chatted happily.

When He Yuzhu got home, he saw that the lights upstairs were off, and he knew that his mother-in-law must be resting.

He pushed open the door and shouted, "Where is everyone? Why didn't they come out to greet us?"

Liu Ting, who was knitting in the living room, couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.

"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a handsome guy before?" He Yuzhu met Liu Ting's gaze, but he wasn't intimidated at all. Instead, he retorted in a rough voice.

"Where did this handsome guy come from?" A clear voice came from the kitchen.

A chubby-faced, mischievous child first peeked at He Yuzhu from the door frame.

This was followed by a pouting gesture.

Following behind was He Yuan, who came out of the kitchen holding a slice of watermelon. When she saw He Yuzhu, she couldn't help but smile and say, "Dad, want some watermelon?"

He Yuzhu looked a little embarrassed and asked curiously, "Why aren't you guys asleep yet?"

At this moment, Liu Ting slowly said, "Xiao Song brought over two watermelons."

Shouyi wanted to eat, and Yuanyuan was cutting it for him.

"Little Song is here?" He Yuzhu took the opportunity to turn around and hang his bag and other things on the coat rack, actually just to avoid his daughter's teasing gaze.

He thought Liu Ting was the only one downstairs, so he casually made a joke to her, but he didn't expect there to be two culprits hiding nearby.

"Handsome, want some watermelon?" Who would have thought that while He Yuzhu ignored the two younger ones, He Yuan would deliberately tease him.

He Yuzhu rolled his eyes and said through gritted teeth, "Eat, and remove the watermelon seeds for me."

"what?"

"what···!"

The two mischievous kids exclaimed in surprise, but the fourth kid's tone was questioning, as it was the first time he had ever heard of this way of eating.

He Yuan clearly knew what was going on, so her answer collapsed at the end.

"Hmph, think back to when you were a kid..." He Yuzhu added coldly.

He Yuan blushed.

Nothing else, when she was little, He Yuzhu brought back a batch of watermelons in the summer.

He Yuan was still young then and didn't know how to spit out the seeds when eating watermelon, so He Yuzhu would pick them out for her.

He Yuan wanted to refute him, but she knew how difficult He Yuzhu was to deal with.

I don't know what's wrong with this old Deng lately; he seems to be letting himself go.

He can say anything, no matter how sentimental.

If He Yuan dares to say she's not picky, He Yuzhu will immediately launch into a barrage of hurtful words.

What a heartless girl! I wish I hadn't been so nice to her when she was little...

Although He Yuan knew that He Yuzhu was joking, girls are easily embarrassed, and she often suppressed He Yuzhu's words.

"Alright, alright, you two hurry up and eat, then go upstairs to sleep."

"Ignore him, he's drunk and never behaves properly." Liu Ting stepped in to smooth things over.

He Yuan, who was caught in a dilemma, felt as if she had been granted a get-out-of-jail-free card upon hearing this. She stuck out her tongue at He Yuzhu, grabbed Xiao Lao Si's vest, and ran straight upstairs.

The fourth brother was completely bewildered; he genuinely had no idea what was going on.

After the children went upstairs, He Yuzhu sat down next to Liu Ting, plopped down, and leaned directly onto her lap.

Before Liu Ting could ask, he said, "I went to my third senior brother's place tonight."
That nice guy was thinking of buying a shop with Xiao Er's family, but I scolded him for it.

After the children were gone, Liu Ting no longer showed any dislike for He Yuzhu. Instead, she shifted her large, fat legs to make He Yuzhu more comfortable.

After she had moved him properly and turned He Yuzhu's face to face, she smiled and said, "Third Senior Brother really treats Little Er like his own younger brother."

"I'm afraid that the more he gives, the more he'll get hurt later. Sigh, it's all my fault." He Yuzhu sighed again for no apparent reason.

That's what the butterfly effect is all about.

If it weren't for He Yuzhu's intervention, Xiao Er would have already returned to the Sichuan mansion with his master's wife after Wang Furong's death.

Then none of this would have happened.

However, if He Yuzhu were given another chance, he would still find an opportunity to save Wang Furong and Xiao Er.

She would still be thinking about helping Xiao Er find a wife.

However, his perspective is different now than it was back then.

Even if it costs the Wang family more, he will find a generous and magnanimous wife for Xiao Er.

Of course, if that were the case, other things might happen.

It will still make him regret it.

Therefore, even if he were reborn a thousand times or ten thousand times, and kept making various choices, his life would still not be perfect, and he would still have all sorts of troubles.

Putting everything else aside, if he were to be reborn with his current understanding, would he be able to abandon Liu Ting or Lou Xiao'e?

I can't give them all up.

That leaves me still conflicted.

Liu Ting took the hair clip off her hair and, using the light, began cleaning He Yuzhu's ear piercings.

He Yuzhu muttered, "My mom said I shouldn't clean my ears at night."

Liu Ting tugged at He Yuzhu's earlobe and chuckled, "Don't move, He Yuan's mother said she can take it out."

He Yuzhu couldn't help but roll his eyes again.

He discovered that as his emotions changed, his family members' emotions also changed without him realizing it.

Just like He Yuan's jokes with him, and now Liu Ting's mischievousness.

He Yuzhu never imagined that he was just trying to ease the tension between his wife and make himself appear as relaxed as possible at home.

Unexpectedly, this chemical reaction occurred.

Liu Ting only lightly cleaned the edge of He Yuzhu's ear piercing.

He Yuzhu looks so cool lying down like that; when she looks down, she can see the downy hair in his ear piercings.

She felt a little itchy if she didn't take a few bites.

But if she actually pulled it out, she was afraid she would deafen He Yuzhu.

"Pfft..." Liu Ting blew on the hair clip with disgust, as if it were dirty. After she put the hair clip back on, she asked He Yuzhu, "I heard from Yuanyuan that they are going to attend some kind of foreign affairs etiquette training."

What happened? Did you arrange this?

It didn't itch if you didn't scratch it, but scratching it actually made He Yuzhu's ears itch.

He stuck his pinky finger into his ear and rummaged around in it, grumbling to Liu Ting, "How could I have such great abilities?"
"If the higher-ups assign her to go, then she should go; it'll definitely be a good thing for her."

"I know it's a good thing, but wouldn't that interfere with her relationship with Xiao Song?" Liu Ting also expressed her concerns.

He Yuzhu sighed again and said, "Alas, national affairs and family affairs are ultimately more important than national affairs."

I think the Song family should be able to understand Yuanyuan.

"The honors Yuanyuan received, our He family didn't get a single penny of; in the end, it was that heartless little brat who took them to the Song family."

"Heh..." Hearing He Yuzhu's slightly resentful teasing, Liu Ting couldn't help but laugh as well.

He Yuzhu can now roughly guess the meaning behind the conversation with him by the relevant departments some time ago.

Going to América with the boss is definitely a good thing. (End of Chapter)
