The sudden voice stunned everyone in the courtyard.
Xu Damao's eyes reddened when he saw He Qing.
"You little brat, you still dare to come to our courtyard?”
As he spoke, he stood up and was about to step forward.
However, when he thought of He Qing's cold attitude when she beat him up, Xu Damao couldn't help but tremble. He suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"Young man, what's the matter?"
Second Uncle sounded displeased. They were in the middle of a trial. Why did a young man suddenly appear and spout nonsense?
He Yuzhu looked at He Qing in astonishment.
"Hey, little thing, why did you come to our courtyard?”
He Qing's expression was calm as she ignored Second Uncle.
He glanced at He Yuzhu indifferently and looked around. He chuckled and said,"I'm also a resident of the courtyard. Why can't I come?”
"Are you also a resident of this courtyard?"
"Is this young man possessed? I've never seen him before."
"Tsk tsk, what a good young man. I didn't expect him to be a fool.”
"That's right. I've lived in this courtyard for more than ten years, but I've never seen him!”
……
The more He Yuzhu looked at He Qing, the more familiar he felt.
Suddenly, his expression changed and he jumped up excitedly.
Then, he rushed in front of He Qing and hugged him!
"He Qing? Are you He Qing? You brat, we haven't seen each other for ten years!”
"Hahaha, brother, I went to see you as soon as I came back. It's just that you didn't recognize me.”
He Qing laughed and hugged He Yuzhu.
When He Yuzhu heard that, he immediately remembered that He Qing had indeed gone to see him in the canteen.
He patted He Qing's back hard, released He Qing, and looked at her carefully.
"Yes, you've grown taller and you've become much stronger. Especially with these glasses, you look very cultured.”
As he spoke, He Yuzhu's eyes turned red.
Ten years!
He hadn't seen his younger brother for ten years. Other than the unshakable letter he sent every year during the New Year, there had been no other news.
When He Qing saw that He Yuzhu was in love, she felt a surge of tenderness.
The man in front of her was good to her from the bottom of his heart.
It could be said that it was his fortune to have such a person as his brother.
He Qing didn't say anything and patted He Yuzhu's shoulder hard.
Everything was said without words.
"Who was I? So it's He Qing. Quick, come in.”
An elder quickly stood up and greeted He Qing.
"Oh, the three masters are all here. He Qing is back.”
"Yes, yes, yes. It's good to be back.”
First Uncle nodded excitedly, Second Uncle hummed in acknowledgment, and Third Uncle raised his hand without saying anything.
Other than the first uncle, the other two in the courtyard had a vague memory of He Qing.
First Uncle couldn't bear children, so he had always wanted to adopt one.
However, who wouldn't dote on their children in this era? No one had considered adopting their son to the first uncle.
As time went by, First Uncle gave up on this idea.
However, he still had to find someone to take care of him in his old age.
He Qing, on the other hand, had always been smart and loved to learn. Therefore, First Uncle had placed all his expectations on He Qing.
It could be said that First Uncle treated He Qing like his own son.
This was also the reason why he had always been biased towards He Yuzhu in the courtyard.
Wasn't he hoping that He Yuzhu and He Qing would be able to support him in his old age?
As for the second uncle, he only had an average impression of He Qing, and he even felt a little disgusted.
After all, He Qing was the most outstanding child in the courtyard, and he had failed to educate her.
Therefore, he only pretended to be pretentious towards He Qing, as if this was the only way to cover up his family's discord.
Third Uncle was a teacher, so he was naturally very fond of He Qing, who had excellent grades.
It was just that he was an intellectual and would not show too much intimacy.
"So it's He Qing. It's been ten years since you last came back, right? No wonder you don't recognize him anymore."
"Yes, yes, He Qing is really handsome. I wonder if he has a partner?”
"Don't even think about it. He Qing is a high-level intellectual. Your relatives are not worthy of him at all.”
"That's right. Look at He Qing. He's good-looking and cultured. He might be able to become a government official when he comes back.”
"That's right, that's right. He Qing, what kind of work did the government arrange for you to come back this time?”
The uncles and aunties in the neighborhood asked one after another.
"Seniors, I've been arranged by the government to enter the Red Star Rolling Mill. I'll be going to work tomorrow.”
He Qing said with a smile.
He had no intention of showing off in front of these neighbors.
After all, everyone would see each other in the future. Being too high-profile would only show that he was not up to standard.
Anyway, in a few days, his specific work would spread in the courtyard.
"Rolling mill, huh? So you're going to be a worker. I thought you'd be a cadre.”
"It's a pity for such a handsome young man to enter the workshop.”
A few aunties who had previously thought highly of He Qing said with pity.
"What nonsense are you talking about? It's the most glorious thing to be a laborer. He Qing obeys the arrangements. This is because she has high awareness.”
When First Uncle heard He Qing's words, he was a little disappointed, but he still stepped forward to stop the gossipers.
