Courtyard House: Starting as an engineer, crushing a yard full of poultry

That's right, there was a reason why He Yuzhu was so attentive before: he treated He Yushui like a free ATM.

After the last calculation, He Yushui had nearly a thousand yuan in savings.

This amount of money is enormous; it's unlikely that a normal family would accumulate such savings in ten years.

Therefore, He Yushui has to continue living in the courtyard house, even if she only comes back once a year.

·· ·····Requesting flowers·· ·

I just need He Yushui to lend me some money when I urgently need it.

However, as things stand, He Yushui has probably lost all hope in herself, which is not a good sign.

We must find a way to keep He Yushui in the courtyard.

We can't just throw away such a huge money bag like this.

In He Yuzhu's mind, He Yushui was nothing more than a money bag.

As for family ties, how many family ties are there?

Tell me, what kind of brother in the world would leave food for his own sister but instead give food to a stranger?

This is something that would be utterly ridiculous if it were said out loud.

He Yushui was alone in her room, quietly thinking. If she wanted to leave the courtyard house completely and never come back, she needed money.

Indeed, I still have a considerable amount of money on me.

However, expenses will be even higher after entering high school.

This is not like junior high school. Junior high school lasts three years and costs at most two or three hundred yuan. This is already a huge expense.

This includes tuition fees, book fees, and other similar expenses, as well as daily costs and seasonal clothing changes.

When you get to high school, you'll definitely need money to support yourself and get through the high school years.

Although I've heard that the standard of living in Hong Kong is quite high and it's easy to find a job there.

According to rumors, Hong Kong is a land of gold.

But I need to have some money, at least enough to ensure I can live there until I find a job.

This is the most important thing.

Besides, when I go to Hong Kong, my father can't keep sending me money.

I have to rely on myself for everything, and it seems that the only thing I can sell now is a house.

Thinking of this, He Yushui thought of someone: Li Xiangdong from the courtyard house, Brother Dong!

It was Li Xiangdong who helped him before, which enabled him to get back all the money his father had sent him.

At this point, the only option is to ask Li Xiangdong for help and see if Brother Dong has a better solution.

Or perhaps he could help her? He Yushui had a very good impression of Li Xiangdong.

Chapter 201 Seeking Help

Seeing that it wasn't completely dark yet, He Yushui stepped out of her room and went to Li Xiangdong's door.

Meanwhile, Li Xiangdong was inside the house, having dinner and chatting with Yu Li.

"Clang clang clang!"

"Who?"

Li Xiangdong inquired.

"Brother Dong, it's me, He Yushui. May I come in and talk to you about something?"

He Yushui stood at the door, speaking nervously.

"It's rainwater. Come in, the door isn't locked."

Li Xiangdong smiled and said.

"Come sit down, let's have a meal together."

Li Xiangdong greeted them warmly.

He Yushui sat obediently at the dining table, and Yu Li took out a set of bowls and chopsticks from the kitchen and placed them on the table.

"Let's eat first, and talk about it after we finish eating."

Li Xiangdong noticed that He Yushui's face was a little pale. "490" probably felt that He Yuzhu hadn't cooked for He Yushui since she came back.

It's evening now, and I'm really hungry.

Anyway, we usually cook a lot at home, so when He Yushui comes over, it's just an extra pair of chopsticks, which is no big deal.

"Yes, let's eat first on Rain Water. Dong-ge has prepared a huge feast tonight. Let's have a good taste of Dong-ge's cooking."

Yu Li also said with a smile.

In the courtyard, He Yushui was different from the others, which made Li Xiangdong and Yu Li feel a little bit of goodwill towards her.

At the very least, this girl's ideas were completely different from everyone else's.

After dinner, Yu Li took the initiative to wash the dishes, and Li Xiangdong didn't say anything.

Sitting in the living room, he poured two cups of tea and handed one to He Yushui.

"Little Raindrop, are you back from your holiday? What's wrong? Did He Yuzhu bully you again? Tell your brother Dong if anything happens. It's okay, brother Dong will try his best to help you."

Li Xiangdong said with a smile.

Upon hearing Li Xiangdong's words, He Yushui couldn't help but shed tears.

She choked back tears as she recounted what had happened and explained her thoughts.

After Yu Li finished washing the dishes, she came out and handed He Yu a tissue.

Yu Li also felt a little bad at this moment, seeing such a young child suffer so much.

Now that we're finally about to start living a good life, this older brother actually did something like this.

It can be said that it really broke He Yushui's heart, so it's no wonder that He Yushui had such thoughts.

“Rain, no matter how you look at it, this is a matter for your family. You made the decision yourself, and that’s your business. The two of us can’t make any decisions for you.”

"But since you mentioned wanting to study in Hong Kong, I think with your grades you should be able to get in. It seems you're worried about tuition and living expenses!"

Li Xiangdong thought for a moment and then said.

"Yes, my father has sent me a sum of money over the years, but after that, I still need to think about how I'll live. My house was left to me by my father, and I still have the property certificate and everything. I want to sell my house."

He Yushui said, her voice choked with emotion.

“Actually, if you really need money, I can sponsor you. You can pay it back after you start working. This house is your father’s property. Do you really want to sell it?”

Li Xiangdong did want to buy all these houses, but given He Yushui's personality...

It's better to make things clear with He Yushui; it doesn't matter what methods the others use.

But He Yushui is a little different.

“Yes, Yushui, your brother Dong’s salary is enough. Consider it a sponsorship from the two of us. After you finish your studies, you can tutor our children. Consider it a long-term investment from us.”

Yu Li also quickly spoke up from the side.

Seeing Li Xiangdong and Yu Li's tenderness, He Yushui couldn't help but cry.

In this courtyard house, only Li Xiangdong and Yu Li's family are good people.

"Brother Dong, Sister Li, please stop trying to persuade me. I've made up my mind. Once I leave here, I will never come back. I will definitely try to seize any opportunity to study abroad in the future."

“My father and I don’t actually have that deep a relationship anymore. Maybe he sent me money just so I could survive, nothing more.”

"As for this older brother, forget it. A leopard can't change its spots. There's no need for him. How many times has he actually had a decent meal every time he's come back over the years?"

He Yushui was determined this time and never wanted to return to the courtyard house that caused her so much pain.

There's nothing to miss about this place; only by relying on myself can I create a new life...

"How about this, your sister-in-law and I will discuss it. After all, you are still young, and you need to go back and think it over carefully. We will make a decision after we have thought it through."

Li Xiangdong also wanted He Yushui to think it through, because once the courtyard house was sold, she would really be homeless.

Even if Li Xiangdong wanted to buy all the houses in the courtyard house,

At the very least, we'll have to wait until He Yushui is living on her own outside, and has a home outside.

He Yushui hadn't done anything wrong in the courtyard house, nor had she caused anyone to dislike her.

I can't just buy all the courtyard houses without considering the consequences.

If you completely expel a teenager from the courtyard house, you'll feel guilty about it.

He Yushui regained her composure and understood Li Xiangdong's implied meaning, nodding heavily.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Dong and Sister Li. I'll come over to see you again tomorrow morning, okay?"

He Yushui said, her voice choked with emotion.

"Of course, your sister-in-law and I will think about it some more, and you should go back and think about it too. Come find us tomorrow morning when you've made up your mind. Of course, if you don't have breakfast in the morning, come over too. We cook a lot at home, so it's just an extra pair of chopsticks for you."
