Siheyuan: Rebirth of a comfortable life starts with Shazhu

He Yuzhu was like those studs in the circles of wealthy people in later generations, having dozens or even hundreds of children in his lifetime.

He Xinghua would also find it difficult to avoid tragedies like Duan Yu's.

This won't delve into any of the mystical or esoteric things.

To put it simply, one is that his social circle overlaps with He An's.

He An often went to Yu Li's place, since that restaurant belonged to her grandfather.

Yu Li had watched her grow up since she was a child, so in terms of family ties, she was closer to her than to others.

He An's feelings for Li were even closer than those for Guo Shumiao.

He Xinghua, on the other hand, always kept the good stuff within the family, and whenever there was a Chinese meal to entertain guests, he would usually take them to the Tan Family Restaurant.

That was his private plot of land.

Another reason is blood ties; after all, he and He An both share He Yuzhu's bloodline.

When they saw each other, they felt a sense of familiarity.

They are also more likely to be attracted to each other than ordinary people.

Therefore, the story of Duan Yu falling in love with his sister is not a coincidence, but a highly probable event.

If the later author hadn't changed Duan Yu's biological father, it would have truly been a tragedy for Duan Yu.

"Your younger sister probably knows about our family now."

If you have the chance, you can ask her out for a meal, have a heart-to-heart talk, and get to know her.

"I just don't know if He An is as forgiving as He Yuan." Lou Xiao'e didn't think much of it, but instead gave her son a few words of advice.

She liked He Yuan, but she also knew that not everyone would be as generous and considerate as He Yuan.

He An has been in Hong Kong Island for almost a year, and she has never disturbed the child's life.

She truly didn't know how to face that child.

She should treat Lou Xiao'e with the same care and patience she showed He Yuan back then, but now that she's pregnant, she doesn't have that same mindset.

However, she did not object to He Xinghua getting along well with his younger siblings.

He Yuzhu's arrangements for his children, although in his view, were all done in accordance with the natural course of events, without forcibly shaping anything.

But it's very obvious now.

Liu Ting's children will most likely pursue careers in government.

Her children, of course, will go on to dominate the business world.

There was the promise He Yuzhu made to Tan Yali last time.

Lou Xiao'e could also confidently let He Xinghua get to know his younger siblings there.

"Oh well.

"I'll find an opportunity to ask her out for a chat." He Xinghua said this with a slight awkwardness.

He was still reeling from the amazing encounter he had today.

Young people who encounter a stunningly beautiful member of the opposite sex are not so easily forgotten.

However, He Xinghua naturally wouldn't think about those messy things; his upbringing was very upright.

Furthermore, his feelings for He Yuzhu could not possibly be motivated by any desire for revenge.

He was just embarrassed, unsure how to get to know and interact with that pretty girl.

"You can have your Aunt Shumiao arrange it."

"Adults' problems shouldn't involve you children." Lou Xiao'e knew her son well enough to see the trouble on He Xinghua's face, but she suggested a very natural way to meet.

Let Guo Shumiao communicate with He An first, so that the meeting between the two children won't be too awkward.

"Mom, Dad only has you and He Yuan's mother left, right?" He Xinghua couldn't help but ask.

Lou Xiao'e was stunned by these words. She looked at her son with some confusion, mainly because she herself wasn't that confident.

She hesitated before asking, "Why do you ask that?"

He Xinghua scratched his head sheepishly and chuckled awkwardly. Lou Xiao'e didn't understand what her son meant, but she rolled her eyes and said as if to encourage herself, "With your dad's attitude, if I hadn't taken the initiative back then, it's hard to say whether you'd even be here."

"Cough cough..." Tanya couldn't help but cough.

This girl is no good. People say pregnancy makes you stupid for three years. Who would say such a thing in front of their own son?
However, she took the opportunity to say to He Xinghua, "Your dad definitely only has two children."

Back then, he and your mother were mutually in love; if it weren't for the drastic changes in the country...

But for wealthy families like ours on Hong Kong Island, this is perfectly normal.

Xinghua, you need to know that when you marry, you must marry someone of equal social standing.

But your mother only has you, and if our family wants to continue its lineage, it all depends on you…”

"mom···
Why are you telling Xinghua this?
"He's still young." Lou Xiao'e blushed.

There's no way around it; it's like a son's emotional awakening, which should have been guided by He Yuzhu, the father.

But He Yuzhu can't get here, can he?

In fact, Lou Xiao'e is also quite conflicted right now.

Based on the wealth she has accumulated, He Xinghua won't have many potential partners in the future.

Among the several wealthy families on Hong Kong Island and the established families in Southeast Asia, Ho Hing-wah could only choose from this small circle.

Lou Xiao'e would never allow her son to choose from other foreign nobles or the like.

To put it bluntly, at least half of those nobles had ancestors who had syphilis.

Lou Xiao'e was afraid that her son would marry a foreign woman and ruin their family's bloodline.

But so far, she hasn't met any suitable girls.

This is also a difficult situation.

Just as Tanya Li said, she was still hoping that her son would have children.

So if He Xinghua falls in love with a girl from an ordinary family and keeps her as a mistress, she, as his mother, wouldn't object.

But she could never bring herself to say it.

The atmosphere at the scene became awkward.

He Xinghua looked at his maternal grandmother, then at his biological mother, and coughed lightly before saying, "Mom, we've almost finished dealing with some of our family's assets in Hong Kong."

They also opened an account on the London Gold Exchange and purchased a considerable amount of gold.

Is our family's investment portfolio too singular?
If the price of gold falls in the future, our family will suffer serious losses.

My friend in América said that if our family can't find a suitable investment direction...

The technology there is a great option. He Xinghua learned a lot of real skills in America.

At least the issues he raised are the biggest problems facing the Ho Group at present.

Lou Xiao'e also became serious when this was mentioned.

She winked at Tanya Li.

Tanya waved to the maid beside her and said, "Take the things off the table."

No need to come up for now.

“Yes, Madam,” a servant replied.

These rules were known to all the servants in her household.

When the master is discussing serious matters, the servants naturally shouldn't be eavesdropping.

Sometimes, a piece of news they overhear by chance, once leaked, can generate profits of at least hundreds of thousands or millions.

In this respect, Hong Kong Island is still quite traditional.

Everyone's attitude towards servants is pretty much the same. First and foremost, it's about loyalty. I can give that, but you can't rely on your cleverness to try and eavesdrop on business information or anything like that.

Some servants who serve a family their entire lives can be supported by the employer in their old age. (End of Chapter)
