The Courtyard House: He Yuzhu, Who Defied Fate

"Okay, I'll go out to buy groceries then!"

After saying that, He Yuzhu rode his bicycle out and found a secluded spot. He returned with the vegetables.

Chen Xueru was very excited to see the vegetables He Yuzhu brought back:

"Husband, how did you manage to get such fresh vegetables?"

He Yuzhu said indulgently:

"Of course! I've been eating too much meat lately, and I think you're tired of it. Let's have something light today!"

At this moment, Yang Xiaodi said to He Yuzhu:

"Honey, I'd like something light too!"

Upon hearing Yang Xiaodi's words, He Yuzhu said:

"Xiao Di is back!"

Yang Xiaodi said:

"Honey, I want to eat some vegetables too. I don't want to eat meat anymore. I'm so tired of all the meat and fish we've had during the Lunar New Year!"

Hearing Yang Xiaodi's words, He Yuzhu smiled and said:

"If people outside heard this, they'd probably beat you up!"

Yang Xiaodi said with a smile:

"Am I stupid? How could I let outsiders know?"

He Yuzhu smiled but didn't say anything, because discussing this issue could easily lead to him getting beaten up if someone overheard it.

He Yuzhu still prepared quite a lot of vegetables, but he also added meat, though not as much as before; it was just a side dish.

After finishing their meal, Yang Xiaodi and Chen Xueru were very satisfied, while He Yuzhu looked at Yang Xiaodi.

Yang Xiaodi was terrified. Two days ago, Yang Xiaodi had not acknowledged He Yuzhu as her master and had provoked him.

He Yuzhu kept it, but Yang Xiaodi still didn't get up for two days.

After that, Yang Xiaodi became frightened. Seeing He Yuzhu's appearance, Yang Xiaodi ran to Chen Xueru's side like a rabbit.

"Honey, let's wait until Xue Ru is better before we talk about it. I can't manage on my own!"

Seeing Yang Xiaodi's expression, Chen Xueru and He Yuzhu both smiled. He Yuzhu knew it wouldn't work, and since Yang Xiaodi was at work, she might not be able to go tomorrow, so she left.

After watching He Yuzhu leave, Yang Xiaodi said to Chen Xueru:

“Our husbands are too strong. I’ve asked around and found out that no other man can satisfy his wife.”

Our husbands are like donkeys!

Chen Xueru said:

"You just need to focus on your cultivation!"

Yang Xiaodi rolled her eyes:

"Is that something to do with cultivation? How could we possibly cultivate there?"

Chen Xueru knew about Yang Xiaodi's sensitive topics, so she smiled and remained silent. Chen Xueru knew that if she spoke ill of He Yuzhu behind his back, she wouldn't be able to stand it either.

Chen Xueru said:

"Should we find another one for my husband?"

If it were before, Yang Xiaodi would never have agreed, but now, her eyes lit up:

"This one is really nice, but do you have any suitable ones?"

Chen Xueru shook her head:

“I don’t know where to find a suitable one. I used to run a shop and do business. Later, I met my husband and we’ve been together ever since.”

As for the others, I don't know them very well. They don't have good character, so I can't just introduce them to anyone I know, can I?

Yang Xiaodi nodded:

"That makes sense. So what do you suggest we do?"

Chen Xueru said:

"That's up to you. You should find a good match for your husband outside!"

Yang Xiaodi nodded:

"Fine, otherwise, we'll both die at his hands sooner or later!"

Yang Xiaodi is now so desperate for his life that he no longer cares about monogamy.

He Yuzhu was unaware that the two were looking for other helpers for him, and continued studying.

He Yuzhu knew that if he wanted his country to rise rapidly, he would have to provide many of the fundamental things himself. If he had to rely on his own people to provide them, then a generation would have to be sacrificed.

Nowadays, many people in China are willing to study abroad for the sake of the country, no matter how difficult it may be.

After completing their studies, they brought the knowledge they had acquired back to China.

Although many people were blinded by foreign money and did not return, many talented people did return, bringing back advanced knowledge from abroad.

Unfortunately, this will take a very long time to complete.

What He Yuzhu wanted to do was to shorten this time indefinitely.

The next day, He Yuzhu didn't go to work, but instead rode his bicycle to Mao'er Hutong.

Upon arriving at Mao'er Hutong, He Yuzhu knocked on the door of the house. He Yuzhu had given it to He Daqing.

I heard yesterday that He Daqing and his family moved here, so I came to see if there was anything I could help with!

Song Ziyu opened the door and saw He Yuzhu, and was very happy:

"Zhu Zi, you're here?"

He Yuzhu nodded, then asked Song Ziyu:

"Aunt Song, are you settling in alright here?"

Song Ziyu nodded excitedly:

"I'm used to it. It's great here. There aren't as many things to do over there. I can close the door and live my own life. It's very comfortable, and there are plenty of houses here."

It has a separate kitchen, a separate storage room, and some rooms have been converted into bathrooms.

Electricity is very convenient, it's really great!

He Yuzhu said:

"You'll get used to it. What happened to that house over there? My dad didn't sell it, did he?"

Song Ziyu shook his head:

"No, how could it be sold? Your dad's idea is to rent it out, otherwise, the people in the compound will keep an eye on it!"

He Yuzhu said:

"I see. Is the land deed for that house at your home?"

Song Ziyu nodded:

“I told your dad yesterday that you’re at home. He found out and said that if you come, he’ll give it to you!”

He Yuzhu said:

"Okay, Aunt Song, give it to me, I'll take care of it!"

Song Ziyu nodded:

"Okay, I'll go get it for you!"

At this moment, He Yuzhu's leg was grabbed, and He Yuqing raised her little head and said to He Yuzhu:

"Guo Guo!"

He Yuqing wanted He Yuzhu to hold her, so He Yuzhu picked her up and then smiled at her, asking:

"Qingqing, do you like it here?"

He Yuqing said excitedly:

"I love it. Here, Qingqing has her own big house, her own big bed, and her own big trunk, which can hold so many of Qingqing's things."

Qingqing loves it!

Hearing He Yuqing's words, He Yuzhu was also very happy. It seemed that giving him this house was the right decision.

At this moment, Song Ziyu came out with the house deed and handed it to He Yuzhu:

"Zhu Zi, this is the property deed from Nanluoguxiang. You go and get it sorted out!"

He Yuzhu said:

"Okay, I'll go get it done. I'll come back and let you know how it goes!"

Song Ziyu nodded:

"Okay, you can decide!"
