Courtyard House: New Life, New Silly Zhu

As dusk approached, He Yushui hurriedly ran home.

"elder brother!"

Hearing his sister's urgent voice, He Yuzhu subconsciously looked up.

Seeing He Yushui rushing over, He Yuzhu placed the Journey to the West book in his hand on the table.

"What's wrong, Yushui? Why are you in such a hurry?" He Yuzhu took his towel down from the shelf and handed it to He Yushui.

He Yushui took the towel and quickly wiped away her sweat.

"Brother, listen to me, go and get a ticket for your factory's social event right now," He Yushui said urgently, her voice tinged with excitement.

Upon hearing the name of the ticket, He Yuzhu seemed to remember something, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

Before he could even think of it, He Yushui hurriedly shook He Yuzhu's hand.

"Brother, did you hear what I said? Sister Yang will be going to the steel rolling mill after get off work this Saturday night. Brother, you must seize the opportunity."

"Okay, okay, stop shaking me." He Yuzhu took He Yushui's hands off his arm.

"You silly girl, anyone who didn't know better would think you were getting married," He Yuzhu said subconsciously, still wondering where he had seen this ticket before.

But He Yushui became a little anxious when she heard her brother say that.

"Brother, you must marry Sister Yang."

Hearing what his sister said, He Yuzhu looked at He Yushui with a puzzled expression.

Seeing her serious expression and pleading eyes, He Yuzhu was a little confused. They hadn't been together for long, so why was she like this?

"What's wrong, Yushui?" He Yuzhu asked He Yushui earnestly. Seeing that she still looked somewhat conflicted, He Yuzhu continued, "Yushui, what's wrong? We siblings depend on each other for survival, is there anything you can't tell me?"

Looking at her brother, He Yushui lowered her head, bit her lip, and then recounted what had happened that afternoon when she went to find Yang Lifang after school.

He Yushui emphasized the point that Yang Lifang asked her to bring some clothes so that she could alter them.

Hearing He Yushui's account, He Yuzhu finally understood.

Isn't this similar to what Qin Huairu did in the original drama? She acted as a half-mother to her when she needed it most.

"Since your sister Yang said so, then you can bring the clothes over after school."

Although He Yuzhu didn't fall in love with Yang Lifang at first sight, but rather was attracted to her beauty, judging from the situation, that woman's personality was genuinely quite good.

In modern society, it's rare to find a woman who is both virtuous and beautiful. Even if she were, she would have already been "taken" by those around her. It's only in this era that one can encounter such a woman.

It must be said here that Qin Huairu was a good woman who was worthy of the Jia family.

Perhaps He Yuzhu's actions cannot be considered those of a good person, but after her husband's death, she was able to raise three children and take care of her mother-in-law. It can only be said that He Yuzhu was carrying too much burden.

Now that he has met a woman who is both virtuous and kind, He Yuzhu is even more determined not to let her go.

He Yushui, who was watching her brother in a daze, was getting a little anxious.

Sister Yang is such a good woman, how can her brother be so indifferent? He has a heavy burden on her shoulders.

"Brother, what are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and think of something!" He Yushui urged her brother, while her mind began to search for other solutions.

If her brother can't get a ticket, she'll take advantage of the opportunity to go get her clothes altered to destroy Sister Yang's ticket.

The saying "a woman from one family is sought after by a hundred" is not an exaggeration. She was determined to make this woman, who had given her warmth, her family.

"Alright, alright, stop shaking me. I was just thinking about this ticket." He Yuzhu slapped away He Yushui's hand that was shaking his shoulder.

Upon hearing that there was hope, He Yushui immediately sat down opposite his brother: "Brother, does your factory issue these tickets?"

He Yuzhu shook his head and explained, "I don't have access to all the factory tickets. The ones I have the most contact with are the canteen tickets."

Hearing her brother say that, He Yushui felt somewhat dejected. But the next moment, He Yuzhu pulled a ticket out of his pocket.

This is similar to the joint ticket for Yang Lifang.

"Brother, you already got it?" He Yushui immediately took the ticket and examined it carefully, a look of surprise on her face.

He just remembered that the only invoice he usually handled that wasn't from the factory was one he snatched from Xu Damao. He heard that Xu Damao had paid a high price for it.

"This ticket isn't mine, it belongs to Xu Damao." Seeing He Yushui's expression about to change again, he quickly explained, "Why was Xu Damao caught last time? It was because he was hiding over there in the restroom, trying to ruin my blind date."

Upon hearing this, He Yushui's face showed anger: "How could Xu Damao be so bad?" He Yushui was indignant, and then looked at the ticket in her hand.

"This ticket is the one Xu Damao gave me as compensation." He Yuzhu took the ticket back into his hand and put it into his pocket.

"Brother, you're still too kind. Xu Damao ruined your blind date. Is that guy really that bad? You just let him get away with it with a ticket?"

"Rain, you know the actual situation. My blind date with that woman didn't work out in the first place. When I found out about it that day, I was going to beat him up, but then I ran into Xu Damao's dad, so I let it go."

He Yushui looked at He Yuzhu with a complicated expression, and He Yuzhu was stunned by her gaze.

"What's wrong, Rain Water? Why are you looking at me like that?" He Yuzhu touched his face.

"It's nothing, it's just that you've changed a lot, brother." After saying that, He Yushui suddenly stepped forward, pinched her brother's cheek, and pulled hard.

"Ouch, you brat, what are you doing?" He Yuzhu pulled her hand away and vigorously rubbed her reddened cheek.

Seeing that her brother's face was still the same, without any head covering or anything like that, He Yushui gave an embarrassed smile.

"Hehe, I just want to see if you're someone else in disguise. Mainly, if it were before, you probably would have beaten him up already, why would you care if Xu Fugui was here or not? Even if Xu Fugui was here, you would definitely have put a sack over Xu Damao's head the next day."

Hearing He Yushui's words, He Yuzhu rolled his eyes and said irritably, "You silly Shui, what are you thinking? Who else am I but your brother?"

"Things are different now. I'm 20 now, it's time for me to take charge of the household and support the family. I'll get married and have children someday. If I'm still like I was before, what will people think of our family?"
