The beginning of Siheyuan starts with refusing to bring lunch boxes
Page 152
Looking at the remaining half bowl of meatballs, He Yuzhu pinched another one and put it in his mouth, “You know what, the meatballs fried by Hu Zi’s mother are so delicious that even a cook like me can’t make them taste this good!”
“You don’t know, but everyone in our alley knows that Hu Zi’s mom is really good at frying things.”
“For lunch, I’ll make meatball soup and stir-fry some vegetables. Is that okay with you?”
“That’s great! Speaking of meatball soup, oh my, Brother Zhuzi, I’m drooling!”
……
Naturally, Qin Huairu heard the noise of He Yuzhu and his wife inviting Hu Zi’s mother to dinner. Qin Huairu was so angry that she begged for even a bite, but this stupid Zhu actually begged others to eat at his home!
If she doesn’t want to eat it, you can give it to our Jia family!
What a pity, even if Qin Huairu wanted to do it, she couldn’t do it.
At noon, Banggeng did not go home for lunch, and Qin Huairu did not care.
At about 3:00 p.m., the fat man came to the courtyard with two bottles of wine.
As soon as he entered the door, the fat man said happily, “Master, it’s booked for next Sunday! Hehe!”
Chapter 184 Rejection of Director Yang
At about 3:00 p.m., the fat man, dressed in a proper manner and carrying two bottles of wine, came to the courtyard.
The fat man excitedly reported the progress to He Yuzhu, “Master, it’s all settled. We’ll do it next Sunday! Hehe!”
Song Xia came out from the inner room at this time. When she heard Fatty say that it was settled, she asked curiously, “Fatty is here? What did you say it was settled?”
“Hey, Master’s wife, it’s like this, I went to propose to my parents today, and we’ve set the wedding date.”
“Hey! Fatty, you’re pretty quick. Why didn’t I hear the message?” Song Xia asked in surprise.
The fat man was embarrassed, scratched his head, looked around the yard, and whispered, “Master’s wife, it’s the girl who came to the Jia family next door a few days ago.”
Song Xia asked in confusion, “The girl from the Jia family? You mean, Qin Huairu’s cousin?”
“Ok!”
“Okay, Fatty, I think you’re usually quite honest, so how come you’re proposing marriage after just meeting me for a few days? You’re really quick!”
The fat man chuckled and said something that made He Yuzhu fly over and kick the fat man, “Hehe! Isn’t this because Master taught me well!”
As soon as the fat man finished speaking, He Yuzhu kicked him on the butt, “Okay, I get it, get out!”
The fat man didn’t know what was going on at this time, and asked in confusion, “Master, what’s wrong? Why are you chasing me away?”
“Get lost! I don’t want to see you right now!” He Yuzhu was so angry.
“and many more!”
At this time, Song Xia spoke, and He Yuzhu’s heart was pounding.
Song Xia walked up to the fat man and asked, “Fatty, you said that it was your master who taught you to get engaged so quickly?”
“Yes…” The fat man seemed to understand something at this moment. He was about to admit it, but then he changed his words.
“Master’s Wife, it’s like this. It was Master who taught me how to cook. I’m now an eighth-level chef and also the kitchen monitor. Jingru and her parents are quite satisfied with my qualifications, so it’s going so smoothly.”
He Yuzhu let out a long sigh of relief and thought, luckily this kid has a quick mind, if it was Ma Hua, he would have blurted it out directly.
Song Xia looked at He Yuzhu in confusion, “Really?”
He Yuzhu immediately boasted, “Of course, if I hadn’t taught you without reservation, how could Fatty have gone from an apprentice to a master chef in just two or three years?”
The fat man’s EQ was online at this moment, “Master’s wife, really, my current achievements are indeed all due to Master. So, you see, after I mentioned the kiss, I brought two bottles of wine to thank Master!”
Although Song Xia felt something was wrong, she did not pursue the matter any further.
“Oh, okay. But you better not hide anything from me. Otherwise, humph! Fatty, watch your fat!”
The fat man’s fat trembled, “Master’s Wife, even if you lend me the courage, I dare not hide it from you.”
Song Xia waved her hand and went to stroll in the yard, “You two can chat, I’m going to stroll.”
Seeing Song Xia leave, He Yuzhu and Fatty both breathed a sigh of relief.
huh~~~
“Hey, Master, that was a close call!”
He Yuzhu was so angry, “Can you just say whatever I taught you? Do you want to kill me?!”
“hey-hey!”
……
At dinner time, Bang Geng came back hungry.
Looking at the new wound on Banggeng’s face, Qin Huairu asked distressedly, “Banggeng, did you fight again?”
“None of your business! I’m hungry. Is the meal ready?”
Bang Geng pushed away Qin Huairu who came forward to check on his injuries with an unhappy look on his face, and directly asked for food.
Qin Huairu didn’t care about this, but smiled and said, “It will be ready in a while, wait, I bought some meat!”
Hearing that there was meat to eat, Bang Geng immediately became happy
A few minutes later, Qin Huairu came over with stir-fried cabbage and meat.
Jia Zhang had already sat down at the table, holding her chopsticks and staring at the meat.
Qin Huairu had just put it down when Jia Zhang fiercely grabbed a piece of food with chopsticks and stuffed it into her mouth without caring whether it was hot or not.
As a result, the man screamed and groaned from the burn, but Jia Zhang was reluctant to spit out the meat in her mouth.
Bang Geng also picked up the meat and ate it first, chewing the meat with satisfaction, and his dissatisfaction with Qin Huairu seemed to have lessened.
Xiao Dang also took advantage of Jia Zhang’s inattention and quickly picked up a piece of shredded meat and stuffed it into his mouth, “Wow! Mom, it smells so good!”
At this time, Jia Zhang saw that the three-year-old Huaihua was also trying to eat meat, so she knocked on the back of Huaihua’s hand with a chopstick and scolded, “You are a money-loser, why are you eating meat? Eat cabbage! Leave the meat for your brother!”
Bang Geng was dissatisfied when he saw how Jia Zhang treated his sister, “Grandma, you said Huaihua is a money-loser, and you are also a woman, so you are also a money-loser!”
“Hey! Little bastard, I’m your grandma!”
“No, according to what you said, you are a money-loser. You can’t eat this meat!”
……
Just as the Jia family was discussing the issue of “losing money”, He Yushui came back from outside pushing a cart.
The He family is having dinner at this time.
Seeing He Yushui coming back, He Yuzhu said sarcastically, “Hey! Jianjun, your aunt who is eager to get married came back early today!”
He Yushui put away the bicycle and shouted towards the house in grievance, “Sister-in-law, look at my brother, he is bullying me again~~”
Song Xia just came over with two steamed buns made of flour and said to He Yuzhu unhappily, “You, can’t you just say it nicely if you have something to say!”
He Yuzhu argued, “I’ll talk about it nicely, is anyone listening?”
“I’m ignoring you, sister-in-law, what are you eating today? It smells so good.”
“Your brother made the pork vermicelli!”
……
next day
The fat man came to the steel mill in the morning and spread the news that he was going to get married.
The fact that Fatty was getting married only caused some small ripples within the cafeteria.
When a fat man is getting married, others just gossip, ask who it is, and then say a few words of blessing.
After several brothers found out who they were going to marry, the four Ma Huas all gave the fat man a thumbs up.
The fat man secretly told the four that the reason he was able to catch up with his wife so quickly was because he had learned from his master.
The four Ma Huas wanted to tease the fat man, but they knew their master had this trick, so they let the fat man go and went to find He Yuzhu to teach them a trick.
As a result, the four were scolded by He Yuzhu for half an hour, and kept emphasizing that he did not teach the fat man! When they left, the four were happy to receive a week of shredded potato training!
The fat guy has twice as much as the others!
Also, Fatty prepared a table full of food that night to apologize to his fellow apprentices!
In the afternoon, He Yuzhu was processing documents when Secretary Feng came.
“Hey! Secretary Feng, how come you have time to come to my place?”
Secretary Feng walked into the room cheerfully and said, “Director He, I’m here to confirm the time with you. Director Yang has a reception tonight!”
He Yuzhu smiled and said, “No problem, go find Ma Hua. I remember that he probably doesn’t have any special dishes to cook today!”
Secretary Feng said with embarrassment, “Well, He Yuzhu, Director Yang wants you to do it yourself, you see…”
Hearing this, the smile on He Yuzhu’s face faded a little, “Um, Secretary Feng, I’m the canteen director, not the chef, you see…”
“Well, Director Yang said that he hasn’t tasted your cooking for a long time, so he wanted to…”
Ever since Director Yang intervened in the deputy director’s affairs, and later came in person to “show goodwill”, He Yuzhu never entertained Director Yang.
Moreover, he also cooperated with Li Huaide, so he had not entertained anyone recently.
The reason given was that he was the canteen director, not the chef!
Director Yang has already contacted He Yuzhu twice, but he has nothing to say about the reasons given by He Yuzhu.
Even though I’m angry, there’s nothing I can do.
After all, he found out from the side that Li Huaide’s special treatment was also being done by Ma Hua.
In this era, working people are the most glorious. If you ask me to do work beyond my job responsibilities, you are a capitalist and you are oppression!
Therefore, although the leadership in this era was high, it was not as high as that in later generations.
The teacher’s words, “Our power is given by the people, and our responsibility is to be responsible to the people”, are really practiced by many people in this era. Of course, the people also believe in it.
It’s not like in later generations, when some officials would burst out laughing when reciting the above sentence during recording propaganda programs!
However, Director Yang has an old comrade-in-arms coming today, so Director Yang wants He Yuzhu to do the operation himself!
