Siheyuan: Buyers get rich from hunting

Chapter 775 Yan Bugui's Plan 9

Director Wang's gentle and powerful words were like a gurgling warm current, carrying a warm feeling, gently but firmly flowing into the hearts of everyone in the courtyard. Just now, Liu Haizhong's unreasonable and troublesome behavior was like a sudden dark cloud, pressing heavily on the sky above the courtyard, making the originally warm and harmonious atmosphere become depressing and dull. But Director Wang's heartwarming words were like a dazzling sun that cut through the haze, instantly dispelling the depressing haze in the courtyard that had just been caused by Liu Haizhong's trouble.

As the haze dissipated, the people who had been dispersed by the tense atmosphere seemed to be gently pulled by an invisible big hand, and everyone sat together again. Everyone's face gradually showed a relaxed and happy smile, and the laughter was like a happy stream, resounding happily in every corner of the courtyard again. The laughter that came one after another seemed to be the most beautiful notes in the world, playing a harmonious song of neighbors.

Director Wang was also infected by everyone's fiery enthusiasm and was enthusiastically pulled to the main table by everyone. Her face was filled with a kind smile, like a flower blooming in spring, warm and charming. She smiled and chatted with everyone, and her kind words were like a spring breeze, making people feel comfortable. She asked the third uncle with interest about the interesting things that happened during the preparation of his speech, and her eyes were full of curiosity and concern. When the third uncle heard Director Wang ask about this, he immediately became energetic. While he was excitedly telling about the little episodes that made people laugh when preparing for the speech, he also did not forget to sincerely thank everyone for their help in daily life. He spoke vividly, and from time to time he also added some exaggerated movements, which attracted everyone to nod and smile knowingly. In this warm atmosphere, everyone talked one after another, and the atmosphere became more and more harmonious, as if a family was sitting together, sharing the beauty of life.

At this time, Liu Haizhong was sitting in a corner, looking at the lively scene in front of him with a somewhat detached look in his eyes. Although he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, as if he had eaten a sour fruit, that awkward feeling spread in his heart. But he also understood that his previous behavior was indeed a bit excessive. When everyone was immersed in the joyful atmosphere, he couldn't get angry again, so he could only sit there silently, like a forgotten corner. From time to time, his eyes glanced at the lively main table, looking at the happy smiles on everyone's faces, his heart was full of mixed feelings. There was regret for his previous behavior, envy of everyone's harmonious coexistence, and a trace of unspeakable loss.

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai, holding a glass of wine and taking steady steps, slowly walked to Liu Haizhong. He had a gentle smile on his face, and his eyes were full of sincerity and kindness. He gently patted Liu Haizhong's shoulder, the action was gentle and powerful, as if conveying a silent care. Then, he said in a gentle and sincere tone: "Old Liu, we all live in the same courtyard, and we see each other every day. This neighborly love is more precious than anything else. The third uncle has achieved results. This is a happy event for our courtyard. We should be happy for him. Everyone works together, just like a ship sailing in the sea. Only when everyone paddles together can our courtyard ship go farther and farther, and get better and better, right?" Yi Zhonghai's words moistened Liu Haizhong's heart like spring rain, and a warm current surged in his heart.

After listening to Yi Zhonghai's heartfelt words, Liu Haizhong seemed to be frozen in silence. That moment of silence was like the calm before the storm, or like a fierce self-struggle in his heart. His eyes wandered, sometimes looking at the ground, sometimes secretly glancing at Yi Zhonghai, as if he was thinking about something, or hesitating about how to respond.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and the eyes of the people around him were focused on Liu Haizhong, waiting for his reaction. Finally, after a moment of silence, Liu Haizhong slowly raised his head. His movements were very slow, as if every inch of raising his head required a lot of effort. When he raised his head completely, his eyes met with Yi Zhonghai's sincere eyes. There was no blame or ridicule in those eyes, only full of kindness and expectation, just like the warm sun in winter, warm and bright.

At this moment, the resentment in Liu Haizhong's heart gradually began to dissipate, like ice and snow illuminated by the sun. His originally tense face gradually relaxed, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a slightly awkward but sincere smile. He stretched out his trembling hand and slowly took the glass of wine handed over by Yi Zhonghai. The wine glass flickered faintly under the light, as if carrying the hope of resolving the conflict between the two.

After standing up, Liu Haizhong took a deep breath, as if he was summoning up all his courage. Then, he shouted, "Uncle Yi is right. I was too impulsive just now. I was like a headless fly, only caring about my own fooling around, not considering everyone's feelings at all, and not seeing that Uncle San's achievements are the pride of our Siheyuan. Uncle San, I toast you a glass and congratulate you on your good results in the seminar! I hope that you can lead the people of our Siheyuan to make progress together in the future, so that our lives will become more and more prosperous!" His voice was loud and powerful, echoing above the Siheyuan, as if he wanted to convey his apologies and blessings to everyone.

The third uncle was originally sitting aside with a smile on his face. After hearing what Liu Haizhong said, he stood up quickly. His movements were very quick, and his face was filled with a warm smile, which was like a blooming chrysanthemum, brilliant and kind. He smiled and said, "Old Liu, thank you for your blessing. We are all neighbors in the Siheyuan, just like a family. We will have to work together for the Siheyuan in the future. Let's build this Siheyuan more beautiful together, so that people outside will envy us." As he said, he held up the wine glass with both hands and gently clinked it with Liu Haizhong's wine glass. A crisp "ding" sound seemed to be a witness to the friendship between the two. Then, the two raised their heads and drank it all in one gulp. The generous gesture attracted cheers from the people around them.

The people around were stunned at first, and then burst into warm applause and cheers. The applause was as loud as thunder and lasted for a long time; the cheers rose and fell, filling the whole courtyard. The atmosphere reached a climax again, and everyone's face was filled with happy smiles, as if all the contradictions and unhappiness disappeared at this moment.

After the children had eaten and drunk their fill, they were like a group of happy little sparrows, and couldn't wait to start laughing and playing in the yard again. They played hide-and-seek for a while, and each of them was like a clever little monkey, quickly hiding in various corners. Some hid behind the flowers, with only half of their heads exposed; some hid behind the pillars, covering their mouths tightly, for fear of making any sound. After a while, they played skipping rubber bands, and their light figures were like dancing butterflies, shuttling back and forth between the rubber bands. Their crisp laughter was as sweet as silver bells, echoing in the courtyard, adding a touch of innocence and joy to this lively scene.

The aunties sat together, chatting about family matters like a group of experienced critics. They talked about everything from family matters to neighborhood anecdotes, and every topic resonated with everyone. One auntie vividly described the anecdotes of her grandson's mischief, which made the other aunties laugh; another auntie shared the cooking tips she had recently learned, and everyone listened with great interest, and asked questions and suggestions from time to time. They talked enthusiastically, as if they had endless things to say.

The young people gathered together, like a group of students eager to learn, to discuss the wonderful speech made by the Third Uncle at the seminar. They recalled the wonderful excerpts from the Third Uncle's speech and analyzed the key points and essence. Some young people even took out paper and pen to carefully write down, saying that they wanted to learn from the Third Uncle and improve their abilities. They argued back and forth, but their eyes were full of desire for knowledge and longing for the future. The whole courtyard was immersed in a joyful and harmonious atmosphere, as if it was a warm big family.

He Yuzhu's round body swayed flexibly, and he came to the side of the third uncle like a happy little deer. His face was full of bright smiles, and that smile was like a flower blooming in spring, with a bit of flattery and full of sincerity. He grinned and said with a smile: "Third uncle, you really stole the show today! Look, the speech at the seminar just now was clear and logical, and the principles were explained clearly, just like telling a story, and everyone was fascinated. I have to learn more from you in the future. Maybe one day I can show my face outside, and then I can make everyone look at me with new eyes." As he said this, he patted his chest hard, and he looked like a little kid who was eager to prove himself.

The third uncle laughed out loud at He Yuzhu's words, and the wrinkles on his face were stretched out like a blooming chrysanthemum. He smiled and waved his hands, and the action was very easy-going, as if to dispel the anxiety in He Yuzhu's heart. He said earnestly: "Yuzhu, as long as you are willing to work hard, there will be no problem. You are smart and capable, your mind works faster than anyone else, and your hands and feet are also nimble, which are advantages that many people cannot match. It's just that sometimes you are a little impatient, just like a firecracker, which will catch fire at the slightest touch. In the future, think more about things, don't be so impulsive, and go over the causes and consequences of things in your mind before making a decision. As long as you can change your temper, you will definitely have a great future, maybe even better than me, an old man." As the third uncle spoke, he gently patted He Yuzhu's shoulder, his eyes full of encouragement and expectation.

At this time, Director Wang stood up gracefully, her posture was straight, like a proud pine tree. She cleared her throat, and the crisp sound was particularly loud in the quiet courtyard, as if it was the first bird song in the morning, breaking the moment of tranquility. With a smile on her face, she glanced at everyone gently and said, "Everyone, be quiet. I have something to announce." When everyone heard Director Wang's words, the voices that were originally in a heated conversation suddenly stopped, as if the mute button was pressed. Everyone looked at her in unison, their eyes full of expectation and curiosity, as if waiting for the start of a wonderful performance.

Director Wang looked at everyone's focused expressions, and her smile became even brighter. She smiled and said, "In view of the outstanding performance of Uncle San at the seminar, the Street Office highly recognized Uncle San's speech and felt that the educational concepts and methods he shared were very valuable. Therefore, the Street Office decided to hold an educational experience sharing meeting in our courtyard and invited Uncle San as the main speaker to share some of his thoughts and methods on educating children. Uncle San is very experienced in educating children, and his children are all sensible and promising, which is the best proof. What do you think?" After Director Wang finished speaking, she raised her chin slightly, her eyes full of inquiry and expectation.

When everyone heard this, they were stunned at first, and then they burst into warm applause and cheers. The applause was as loud as thunder, echoing in the sky above the courtyard; the cheers came one after another, as if it was a cheerful symphony. A young man was so excited that his face flushed. He stood up suddenly, waved his hands vigorously, and said loudly: "This is great, we will have a direction to educate our children in the future. My child is very naughty, and I don’t know how to discipline him. The third uncle is so experienced, he will definitely teach us a lot of good methods. I must listen carefully in the future." As he said this, he nodded vigorously, his eyes full of desire.

An auntie also smiled and said, "Yes, Uncle Three is so experienced, he can definitely teach us a lot of good methods. My grandson is always not serious about his studies. When I say a few words to him, he talks back to me, and I am almost worried to death. With Uncle Three's sharing session, I feel like I have found a savior. I must listen carefully, learn all those good methods, and educate my grandson well." As the auntie spoke, she gestured with her hands, and her appearance was very vivid. Others also nodded in agreement, with expectations and excitement on their faces, as if they had seen the children thrive under the guidance of Uncle Three's methods.

The third uncle stood up a little embarrassedly and said, "Director Wang, you are too kind to me. I am just sharing some of my thoughts and experiences. If it can be helpful to everyone, that would be the best."

Director Wang smiled and said, "Uncle San, please don't be so modest. Your experience is a very valuable asset to us. This matter is settled. I will arrange everything when the time comes. You should be ready to tell everyone about it."

The third uncle smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, since Director Wang trusts me so much, I will definitely do my best."

As night fell, the celebration in the courtyard gradually came to an end. Everyone helped to put away the tables and chairs, cleaned the yard, and then went home to rest. The third uncle took the silk banner, walked into the house carefully, and hung it in the most conspicuous place. He looked at the silk banner, and his heart was filled with emotion and motivation. He knew that this was not only an honor, but also a responsibility and mission.

Since then, Uncle San has studied education issues more attentively. He not only read a lot of books and materials, but also often exchanged experiences with other educators. On the day of the educational experience sharing meeting, the courtyard was full of people, not only neighbors of the courtyard, but also people from other courtyards nearby. Uncle San stood on the stage, confidently and calmly sharing his educational experience and methods, and the people in the audience listened with great interest, and bursts of applause and praise from time to time.
