The Courtyard House: He Yuzhu, Who Defied Fate

He Yuzhu drove to the mansion, and when he arrived, all the boys were practicing martial arts.

Seeing He Yuzhu approaching, they all called out to him:

"Brother Zhu!"

He Yuzhu saw that everyone had entered the stage of whole-body strength, and even Li Zhiwen had reached the stage of manifest strength.

He Yuzhu knew that all that was left was for them to accumulate experience slowly.

"You guys are working very hard, not bad, not bad at all, Zhiwen is almost at the Mingjin level!"

Li Zhiqin also said:

"Brother Zhu, I'm almost at the edge of Ming Jin!"

Upon hearing Li Zhiqin's words, He Yuzhu said:

"Zhi Qin, you are intelligent, but your strength is not yet fully developed. Don't force a breakthrough."

Otherwise, even if you reach the Ming Jin level, your progress will be limited.

You need to break through naturally, you understand?

Hearing He Yuzhu's words, Li Zhiqin nodded:

"Got it, Brother Zhu!"

He Yuzhu addressed the crowd:

"Alright, you guys too, don't rush. Cultivate your inner strength to perfection, and when you can't suppress it anymore, then go for a breakthrough, understand?"

A bunch of kids answered in unison:

"Know it!"

Looking at these little brats, He Yuzhu smiled and said:

"So, are you getting used to it here?"

Li Zhihua said:

"That's great! My house is big, but there are a lot of people here. We all have our own space!"

He Yuzhu said:

"That's good. If you need anything, just let me know, okay?"

Li Zhiwen said:

"Brother Zhu, you've been so good to us. We don't need anything now!"

What He Yuzhu didn't know was that the next generation of the Li family now held him in the highest esteem.

These children excel in everything they do, from studying, working, living, practicing martial arts, and even in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

There's nothing He Yuzhu doesn't know. The second generation of the Li family are all here now, and they all admire He Yuzhu immensely.

He listened to He Yuzhu's words without question.

The second generation of the Li family later became a powerful ally of He Yuzhu.

Of course, that's a story for later. After He Yuzhu finished speaking with the Li family, he left some things behind and departed.

Lee Ji-han said:

"Brother Zhiwen, Brother Zhu is really amazing! I've discovered that there's nothing Brother Zhu doesn't know!"

Li Zhiwen nodded:

"Yes, there are so many of us, and everyone has different strengths, whether it's studying, practicing martial arts, calligraphy, painting, or other things."

It seems like there's nothing he doesn't understand!

Li Zhiwu said:

"Brother Zhiwen, anyway, Brother Zhuzi is our older brother, and also Uncle's disciple."

Although they don't share the surname Li, they are no different from members of the Li family.

"If there's anything we can do in the future, we'll do our best to help, so that his teachings won't have been in vain!"

Everyone nodded.

Li Zhiwen nodded:

"That's right, alright, everyone start cultivating. Zhi Qin, you must remember what Brother Zhu said."

If you break through now, you'll only reach the level of Ming Jin (manifested strength), and the later stages of An Jin (hidden strength) and Hua Jin (transformative strength) will be out of your reach!

Li Zhiqin nodded, still feeling a lingering fear.

"I see!"

If He Yuzhu hadn't come, I probably would have broken through in a few days if I hadn't been striving for first place.

Fortunately, He Yuzhu came; otherwise, he would have been cut off from martial arts in the future.

Li Zhiwen also knew that Li Zhiqin was very fond of martial arts. If He Yuzhu hadn't come, Li Zhiqin's life would probably have been ruined.

……

After He Yuzhu left, he drove to Yang Zhili's house and arrived at his home.

He Yuzhu arrived carrying some things. Hu Shuzhi saw what He Yuzhu was carrying and said to him:

"Zhu Zi, look at you! You came all this way, why did you bring so much stuff?"

He Yuzhu said:

"Mom, I haven't been here in so long, I can't come empty-handed. I'm off today, I'll cook lunch for you and Dad!"

Hu Shuzhi said:

"Okay, I'll call your dad right now and tell him to come home early!"

He Yuzhu nodded:

"Okay, ask your dad if he has time!"

Hu Shuzhi said:

"I might not have time for other things, but knowing you're coming to cook, I'll definitely have time!"

He Yuzhu said:

"Okay, then I'll make more!"

After saying that, she took the things and went to the kitchen. Hu Shuzhi wanted to buy some more things, since her son-in-law was back, she naturally had to buy some things.

After making the call to Yang Zhili, Hu Shuzhi left.

Seeing Hu Shuzhi come out, the neighbor next to her looked at her and said:

"Old Hu, your son-in-law is here?"

Hu Shuzhi said happily:

"Yes, my son-in-law has been busy since the New Year. He's not taking a break, so he came to see us!"

The neighbor said enviously:

"Your son-in-law is so good! Look at our son-in-law, he only comes over during the Chinese New Year to pay a visit, and we don't see him at all throughout the year!"

Hu Shuzhi said with a smile:

"Yeah, I also think my son-in-law is pretty good! Fatty, I can't chat anymore today, I'm going to buy something!"

Go!

……

After He Yuzhu finished cooking, Yang Zhili returned. The three of them ate, but He Yuzhu didn't drink with Yang Zhili because he had things to do in the afternoon.

Yang Zhili never drinks alcohol when he eats He Yuzhu's food. In Yang Zhili's words, there's no time when he can't drink.

He Yuzhu's cooking is so delicious, drinking alcohol would be a waste of such good food!

Therefore, Yang Zhili would never drink alcohol when He Yuzhu cooked, because the taste of alcohol would mask the flavor of He Yuzhu's food.

After eating, He Yuzhu chatted with Yang Zhili and Hu Shuzhi for a while and learned that He Yuzhu would be resting for two days.

Then they let He Yuzhu leave.

He Yuzhu went to Tian Zehua's house. Tian Zehua was at a restaurant, and only his teacher's wife, Yu Hui, was at home.

He Yuzhu left some meat and vegetables, chatted with Yu Hui for a while, and then left.

Yu Hui knew that He Yuzhu was genuinely busy, so she didn't say anything more.

Then He Yuzhu drove to the steel rolling mill.

Upon arriving at the steel rolling mill, they found He Daqing.

He Daqing was overjoyed to see He Yuzhu arrive.

"The pillar is here!"

Judging from He Daqing's appearance, He Yuzhu knew that He Daqing was doing well, his face glowing with health.
