The Courtyard House: He Yuzhu, Who Defied Fate

He looks very thin, but his body contains great energy.

December arrived quickly, and the weather gradually turned cold.

He Yuzhu's cooking skills have finally reached level 4, while most of his martial arts skills have reached level 5.

It should be noted that He Yuzhu has not been actively practicing martial arts lately, but has basically integrated what Li Cunren taught him into every aspect of his life.

His culinary skills haven't suffered, nor has his martial arts prowess.

While He Yuzhu was busy, Tian Zehua found him:

"Pillar, come here for a second!"

He Yuzhu put down his work and then asked Tian Zehua:

"Master, what's wrong?"

Tian Zehua said:

"Zhu Zi, the New Year is just around the corner, and we'll have a three-day holiday here."

Pack your things for the next three days and come home with me to celebrate the New Year together. Bring your younger sister with you.

It's so cold, and you've been here the whole time. You probably haven't prepared anything at home.

No need to prepare anything. Go back and spend the New Year with your master. You'll be back to work on the third day of the Lunar New Year, and then you can come back!

Hearing his master's words, He Yuzhu knew that he had already troubled his master a lot, so one more time wouldn't make a difference.

He Yuzhu nodded:

"Alright, then I'll trouble you, Master. I'll go back and buy groceries; there won't be enough time to buy coal."

However, I need to go back and tidy up the house. It hasn't been cleaned for over a month. I'll go back and tidy it up and put up some couplets.

My mother has been gone for three years!

Tian Zehua nodded:

"Okay, that's true. Anyway, there's nothing much going on here these next few days, so you can go back and get it done!"

He Yuzhu nodded:

"Okay, by the way, I'll go ask Yu if she's going back?"

Tian Zehua knew that He Yuzhu was worried about his younger sister. Because He Yu didn't have any special skills, her martial arts training hadn't reached the level of "full strength".

I'm still practicing Siu Nim Tao, which is the stance training method in Wing Chun.

Upon seeing He Yuzhu approach, He Yu excitedly rushed into his arms:

"Brother, why are you back so early today?"

He Yuzhu looked at He Yu, and then said:

"Isn't it almost Chinese New Year? How about your brother and you go to Uncle Tian's house for the New Year this year?"

He Yu nodded happily:

"Okay, okay!"

He Yu felt at ease wherever He Yuzhu was. Without He Daqing, He Yu was very sensitive, fearing that her brother would abandon her.

After spending these past few months together, He Yu has gotten much better, but she still doesn't want to leave He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu was aware of this situation, so whenever he had free time, he would accompany He Yu and teach her martial arts.

He Yuzhu thought that when he went back this time, he would ask Yan Bugui for some elementary school textbooks, and he should teach He Yu to read when he had nothing to do.

He Yuzhu, from the future, knew how important studying was, and that it was only the beginning of the year. If He Yuzhu studied hard, he would graduate from university just as the wind was rising.

I'll find a way to get He Yu a job, and things will be much easier from now on.

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu decided to give He Yu a good tutoring session to improve He Yu's grades.

However, He Yu is only five years old now, so let's enjoy the New Year first.

He Yuzhu, look at the happy He Yu, and then continue to ask:

"I need to go home for a bit to clean up the house. Will you come back with me?"

He Yu nodded without thinking:

"Okay, let's go back!"

"Okay, He Yuzhu, let's pack up and go back." After saying that, he fully equipped He Yuzhu with gloves, a hat, a cotton-padded coat, and other clothes.

Then, after speaking with Manager Gu, I took He Yu home.

When they arrived at the courtyard house, Yan Bugui was already on holiday and was sitting at the entrance. Seeing He Yuzhu and He Yu, Yan Bugui said:

"Hey, isn't this Zhu Zi? You're back? Did you graduate from your apprenticeship, or are you on vacation?"

He Yuzhu said with a smile:

"Without completing the apprenticeship, it's not that easy. Isn't the New Year just around the corner?"

I came back to tidy up the house. This is the third year since my mother passed away, so it's a good opportunity to clean up the house properly.

By the way, how's that thing I told you about last time?

Yan Bugui slapped his forehead:

"Oh dear, look at my brain! You said you'd get it done for me as soon as I got back to school, but you haven't come back yet."

I'd completely forgotten about it until you mentioned it. Wait for me, I'll go get it for you right now!

After saying that, he came out with a bag and handed it to He Yuzhu:

"Zhu Zi, this is all here. Put it back, and remember to give me the bag back!"

He Yuzhu nodded:

"Thank you, Uncle! You're such a kind person!"

Yan Bugui was also very happy to hear He Yuzhu's words:

"We're neighbors, it's only right, it's only right!"

.

Chapter Thirteen: The Reverse Tactics of Yi Zhonghai

He Yuzhu didn't believe in that. The country had just been founded, and people weren't so calculating yet. Only Yi Zhonghai had just started to scheme.

Moreover, the main target of their schemes is Jia Dongxu; they consider themselves just a backup plan. Furthermore, it's not time for them to scheme against them yet; they're currently just in the training phase.

However, Yi Zhonghai wasn't worried about He Yuzhu not coming back, because he knew that if He Yuzhu didn't have a skill, he wouldn't amount to anything in the future.

So now Yi Zhonghai is waiting for He Yuzhu to return after completing his studies.

He Yuzhu, holding these textbooks, said:

"Uncle, thanks. I'll come back and tidy up the house now. You know my family's situation."

I have nothing now, but in the future, if I get anything good, I'll definitely think of Uncle San!

Yan Bugui waved his hand:

"No need, it's just a small favor. You've had a tough time, being only fifteen and already taking on the responsibility of supporting the family."

Your father was a scoundrel; he left you nothing when he died.

Hearing Yan Bugui's words, He Yuzhu did not respond or say anything, after all, it was about the original owner of this body.

He Yuzhu knew that it had nothing to do with him, and if he expressed his opinion, his reputation would be ruined.

Even if He Daqing is a scoundrel, he is still He Yuzhu's biological father.

He Yuzhu sighed, and without speaking, said:

"Uncle, I don't have much time here, and I don't have anything to keep warm at home. I'll tidy up the house and then go back to Hongbinlou."

It's getting too late, it won't be safe to go back. I'll have Yu bring the bag back to you in a bit!

Yan Bugui waved his hand:

"No rush, you go ahead and do your thing!"

He Yuzhu returned home, then took out all his textbooks and, taking advantage of the fact that no one was in the room, put them into his spatial storage, which was currently empty.

All he had was the jade pendant that Li Cunren gave to the Li family; he had nothing else.

As for the things that Master Li Cunren left him, he didn't take them, since he didn't know if Li Cunren would ever come back.

If I take it all, it will be difficult to explain when Li Cunren comes back.

Moreover, He Yuzhu was not particularly attached to these material possessions.

Right now, He Yuzhu just wants to improve himself. As for what comes next, he plans to deal with it later.

After cleaning up, He Yuzhu saw He Yu still playing in the courtyard, but didn't pay any attention to it.

After cleaning up, He Yuzhu went out to buy a couplet.

When He Yuzhu returned, Yi Zhonghai also returned and saw He Yuzhu.
