The Courtyard House: He Yuzhu, Who Defied Fate

Chen Xueru said with a wry smile:

"You've been so busy lately, I haven't even told you!"

He Yuzhu had originally wanted He Yu to skip a grade. It just so happened that when He Yu was seventeen or eighteen, she would graduate from university and thus avoid the storm of those ten years.

He Yuzhu said:

"It's nothing. I've just been too busy lately and have neglected Yu. Yu, if there's anything you don't understand, just ask me!"

He Yu nodded:

"Okay, brother, I'm going to study now!"

He Yuzhu nodded, then rode his bicycle to the courtyard house.

On the way, He Yuzhu bought a lot of meat, as well as chicken, duck and fish, intending to send them to his younger sister He Yuqing.

After all, he hadn't seen his sister for several months.

He Yuzhu rode his bicycle to the courtyard house and, seeing Yan Bugui standing at the entrance, asked Yan Bugui:

"Is Uncle San on vacation?"

Yan Bugui nodded:

"Yes, it's a holiday!"

He Yuzhu said:

"Why didn't Uncle San go fishing?"

Yan Bugui said:

"There are too many people fishing now. Let's go in a few days when there are fewer people!"

He Yuzhu said:

"Then, Uncle, you go ahead with your work. I'll go back and check on things!"

Yan Bugui looked at the meat on He Yuzhu's bicycle with great envy, but he knew that He Yuzhu was not someone he could afford to offend.

Even though I was envious, I didn't try to take advantage of it!

When He Yuzhu arrived at the Intermediate People's Court, Jia Dongxu and Yi Zhonghai had both gone to work and were not home. Song Ziyu was washing clothes, and He Yuqing was playing next to Song Ziyu.

Jia Zhangshi was sewing shoe soles, while Qin Huairu was holding Xiao Dang and coaxing the child.

The pheasant was running around like crazy, seemingly playing something.

Seeing He Yuzhu approaching, He Yuqing was the first to notice. Slightly startled, she rushed towards him.

"Guo Guo!"

Seeing the adorable He Yuqing, He Yuzhu parked his bicycle and picked up He Yuqing as she rushed over.

Then ask:

Do you miss your brother?

Hearing He Yuzhu's words, He Yuqing obediently said:

"Think about it!"

He Yuzhu kissed He Yuqing's cheek, and He Yuqing giggled happily.

Banggeng looked at He Yuqing with envy; He Yuqing was the happiest child in the entire compound.

All kinds of snacks, food, and clothes are the best.

Not only do He Daqing and Song Ziyu dote on He Yuqing, but He Yuzhu, He Yu, Yang Xiaodi, and Chen Xueru also dote on her.

So the little girl never suffers any hardship.

Seeing He Yuzhu return, Qin Huairu looked envious and jealous, but she didn't show it.

Madam Jia watched He Yuzhu interact with the little girl, muttering to each other, but no one knew what they were saying.

Madam Jia is now terrified of He Yuzhu, because the He family doesn't tolerate her. Whether it's He Daqing or He Yuzhu, they both dare to beat her up.

Song Ziyu put down the clothes in her hands, then asked He Yuzhu:

"Zhu Zi, what brings you here today?"

He Yuzhu said to Song Ziyu:

"Aunt Song, my dad came to see me yesterday and today. He asked me to go to the steel mill and said that Director Wang was looking for me."

"Well, I had nothing to do today, so I came to see you and Yuqing, and also to buy some meat so I can cook something delicious for Qingqing!"

Like He Yu, He Yuqing was a little foodie. Upon hearing He Yuzhu's words, she jumped up and down excitedly.

"Oh, there's a good seven! There's a good seven!"

Chapter 121: Maintaining Circuits in the Steel Rolling Mill

Looking at the excited He Yuqing, Jia Zhangshi muttered to herself, while He Yuzhu gave Jia Zhangshi a cold look.

Jia Zhangshi lowered her head and shut her mouth, not saying a word. He Yuzhu was too lazy to argue with Jia Zhangshi about this matter.

Then he said to Song Ziyu:

"Aunt Song, you do the laundry first. I'll go and make these things, cook a few dishes, and turn the rest into snacks."

"I'll give it to Qingqing then!"

Song Ziyu knew He Yuzhu's culinary skills, and then nodded:

"it is good!"

Song Ziyu knew that He Yuzhu's cooking skills were excellent, even better than He Daqing's.

He Daqing's cooking skills are already quite impressive, but He Yuzhu's cooking skills are even better than He Daqing's.

After processing the meat, He Yuzhu made some into braised pork and some into dried meat.

Some of it was made into smoked meat. After finishing, He Yuzhu said:

"Aunt Song, I've almost finished. Keep an eye on the fire for the braised pork. It's simmering on low heat now, and it'll be ready in an hour."

I'll give it to Qingqing then. I'll go to the steel mill first to see what they need me for.

Then come back, and if anyone bullies you or Qingqing, come back and tell me, and you'll kill them!

Upon hearing He Yuzhu's words, Song Ziyu said:

"Go ahead, Qingqing and I are fine at home!"

He Yuzhu nodded, then said to He Yuqing, who was secretly peeking at the delicious food inside the house:

"Qingqing, your brother is leaving, but he'll come to see you later!"

He Yuqing looked at the delicious food in the room, then nodded:

"Okay, buddy, is it ready yet?"

He Yuzhu looked at the lovely He Yuqing, and then said to her:

"Okay, Mommy will call Qingqing to eat, okay?"

He Yuqing nodded obediently:

"it is good!"

At this moment, Banggeng looked at He Yuzhu's house with envy. Because of what happened last time, Banggeng dared not provoke He Yuqing anymore.

Because He Yuzhu really beat him up, and the stick hurt for two or three days, but nobody believed it.

Seeing He Yuzhu ride away on his bicycle, Jia Zhangshi said sarcastically:

"Some people have such bad consciences. They have such a good life, yet they don't know how to help others!"

Everyone else is starving, and we can't even see them!

Qin Huairu pretended not to see it, because she also believed that since He Daqing's family was living in a precarious situation, she should help her own family.

However, He Daqing acted as if he couldn't see it, and as for Jia Dongxu, he did nothing except after finishing his work every day.

They were just trying to find a way to get food. The Jia family mainly ate coarse grains and rarely ate refined grains.

Since there weren't that many quotas available, Jia Dongxu's quota for refined grains was eventually exchanged for coarse grains by someone else after he bought them.

Otherwise, there won't be enough food for my family.

Even now, you can tell that Banggeng is a bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong. Although he really wants to go to the He family to eat meat, he is reminded of how powerful He Yuzhu is.

No matter how much I think about it, I don't dare to go.

He Yuzhu was unaware that Banggeng was afraid of him and didn't dare to go and make a fuss about eating meat.

He Yuzhu, who had just arrived in this world, was so hungry he was practically drooling. He didn't care about the courtyard house at all.

Since demonstrating his skills at the steel rolling mill, Yi Zhonghai has stopped thinking about He Yuzhu.

The deaf old lady also knew that He Yuzhu was beyond her control, so she placed all her hopes on Jia Dongxu.

Yi Zhonghai knew that if he wanted Jia Dongxu to support him in his old age, he had to make Jia Dongxu realize that he couldn't live without him and that Jia Dongxu should be grateful.
