Chapter 228: Everyone is here to wish He Daqing a happy new year
"I...I don't know you well!"
Qin Jingru is only fourteen years old now. Even in a few years, she will not be a match for Xu Damao.
Fortunately, with He Daqing's advance reminder, Qin Jingru was not afraid. She just rolled her eyes at Xu Damao, and was led by He Yushui's hand to walk out of the yard.
"Hey, this little girl is so pretty!"
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Xu Damao exclaimed,
"What a pity, she is too young, not even as old as Yu Shui. This He family is really full of beauties!"
Xu Damao shook his head helplessly.
Although Qin Jingru is pretty, she only looks like a teenager and is obviously not an adult. If it was a few decades ago, it would be fine, but now... this is not allowed.
When he thought of this, Xu Damao thought of Lou Xiaoe and became depressed again.
"Aunt, this way!"
He Yushui took Qin Jingru's hand and quickly arrived at the central courtyard. The two pushed He Daqing's bicycle and walked out.
This was Qin Jingru’s first visit to Beijing, and He Yushui planned to take his aunt for a visit to the nearby places.
Looking at He Yushui pushing the bicycle, Qin Jingru's eyes were full of envy.
Of course she had seen bicycles before, but looking across the entire Qinjia Bay, there were not many families who could afford such bicycles. And her brother-in-law's family actually had three bicycles!
Even He Yushui, who is not much older than me, can ride a bike. I am so envious!
"Yushui, I want to learn how to ride a bike, too!"
On the way, Qin Jingru couldn't help but say when she saw He Yushui riding the bike leisurely.
"Sure, we're going to the park, I'll teach you!"
He Yushui smiled slightly and suddenly found it interesting.
It was OK before, she could play with several children in the yard, but now she has grown into a big girl, there are not many to play with. Now with this aunt, life doesn't seem so boring anymore.
So, for the next two days, the two little girls traveled around the city, and came back every day with happy faces.
Seeing this scene, He Daqing smiled helplessly.
I was worried that Qin Jingru would feel restrained when she came, but now, He Yushui and Qin Jingru have become good sisters, so I don't have to worry about that anymore.
"Master, Happy New Year!"
On the fifth day of the New Year, He Daqing's home welcomed guests again.
It was Ding Qiunan who pushed Li Wei and came with a bunch of gifts to wish everyone a happy new year.
Ever since Li Wei became He Daqing's disciple, he would come here every year to visit, but now with the addition of Ding Qiunan, the two brothers and sisters came here together.
Ding Qiunan has an outstanding temperament. As the beauty of the machinery factory, she attracted a lot of attention as soon as she appeared.
"She's so pretty!"
Qin Jingru glanced at Ding Qiunan and immediately felt ashamed of herself.
"That is!"
He Yushui smiled complacently.
"This beautiful lady is the most beautiful lady in the machinery factory. I heard that many people are pursuing her. Even the son of the deputy director of the factory is always pestering her."
"Unfortunately, Ding Qiunan has no interest in these suitors. Instead, he follows my father every day to learn medical skills!"
He Yushui feels very proud when talking about his father.
Over the years, He Daqing has done an excellent job in all aspects and is respected by everyone. As the daughter of He Daqing, He Yushui benefits a lot wherever she goes.
"oh oh."
Qin Jingru nodded, quickly made a pot of hot tea, and went forward to entertain the guests.
She came to the city to help her brother-in-law with his work. It would have been fine if she had just played around for the past two days, but now that there were guests coming, Qin Jingru naturally had to be more attentive.
He Daqing's family already had many people, and now with two more apprentices, the whole house became even more lively.
Even the people in the front and back yards, upon hearing the noise, came over to the middle yard in groups of three or five to watch the excitement from afar.
It’s New Year’s Day, who doesn’t like the hustle and bustle?
It’s a pity that the weather is not very good this year, and every household has tacitly chosen not to visit relatives. As a result, the whole yard seems a little silent.
In comparison, He Daqing's home became unique in the entire compound.
"Manager He, Happy New Year!"
Just as He Daqing was chatting with his two apprentices, a familiar voice was heard in the yard.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a pretty woman with a plump figure, carrying a gift box and walking towards He Daqing's house with her waist twisted.
"It's Manager Chen from Zhengyang Textile Industry!"
"Manager Chen looks quite old, right? She's so pretty, yet she's still unmarried!"
"The more outstanding a woman is, the harder it may be for her to get married. Chen Xueru is so good now. How many men do you think are worthy of her?"
Chen Xueru was also a frequent visitor to the Siheyuan and the manager of Zhengyang Textile Industry, so she knew almost everyone in the Siheyuan.
However, as the years go by, Chen Xueru remains single, which inevitably causes a lot of gossip.
But Chen Xueru was too lazy to pay attention to these discussions.
In her opinion, as long as she had He Daqing, it was enough. It didn't matter whether she got married or not.
"Wow, it's so lively today!"
Ignoring everyone's envious and gossipy looks, Chen Xueru carried the gift box into the house. Only then did she realize that there were other guests at He Daqing's house.
Qin Jingru, who was standing aside serving tea and water, saw Chen Xueru coming in, and her big eyes were once again filled with shock.
My goodness, Ding Qiunan alone already made her feel ashamed of herself, but she didn't expect that in less than half an hour, there was another guest at her brother-in-law's house. Moreover, the woman in front of her was not inferior to Ding Qiunan in terms of appearance or temperament!
And judging from what this woman said, it seemed that she was also coming for her brother-in-law.
Qin Jingru is now at an age where she loves beauty, so when she saw this scene, she couldn't help but think a lot.
Seeing He Daqing and Chen Xueru chatting with each other, Qin Jingru tactfully stepped forward and poured Chen Xueru a cup of tea.
"Uncle He, Happy New Year, I'm here to see you!"
However, just as Qin Jingru filled her cup of tea, a young and beautiful voice was heard from the yard.
Qin Jingru couldn't help but look towards the yard, and saw a little girl who was slightly taller than her, walking towards her with a gift box in her hand and a smile on her face.
Well, this girl, although not as pretty as Ding Qiunan and Chen Xueru, judging from her clothes, she seems to be from a prominent family.
He Daqing, who was sitting in the main seat, felt mixed emotions.
I have done so many good things over the years and have such a good relationship with people. Look, the situation is so bleak this year, but there are still so many people coming to wish me a happy new year.
There’s nothing I can do, I’m just popular.
Xu Damao, who was standing in the crowd watching the excitement, saw the person coming and his eyes lit up. He rushed over regardless of the strange looks from the crowd.
"Xiao'e, why are you here?"
Lou Xiaoe, "..."
