Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

Chapter 39: Master Visits (Part )

Wang Dana was originally negative about the so-called three-year service. He believed that as long as the students had good character, they could learn the art. So why did the students choose him to learn cooking? Was it because their family conditions were poor?
Isn't it a good idea to let apprentices get their wages in advance? Of course, skills should not be taught lightly, and proper inspection is still necessary.

"clang clang"

When the master and the apprentice were discussing cooking, there was a knock on He Yuzhu's door. He Yuzhu was furious. Who is this blind bastard? Doesn't he know that his master is coming today?
"Zhu Zi, open the door!"

No matter what, we can't turn away guests when they come to our house, right? This would be very rude, and although Wang Dana thought so, he was still very unhappy.

Today he finally had the chance to give his apprentice some instructions, but being interrupted like this, anyone else would have gotten furious. But if he wasn't concerned about Zhuzi's difficulty in surviving in this compound, he might not have been able to endure it!

He Yuzhu got up helplessly, thinking that it was Yi Zhonghai who came to visit again. He was extremely annoyed and didn't show any respect at all!
We are usually very busy at Fengze Garden, and my fellow brothers and sisters don’t have such a good opportunity to ask for advice. I guess you must be very annoyed to be disturbed at this moment?
"Hmm? What's up old lady?"

He Yuzhu originally wanted to get angry, but when he opened the door, he found an old lady with bound feet standing outside, leaning on a cane with a kind look on her face!

Maybe it was due to preconceived ideas or thoughts from past lives, but the seemingly kind face looked hideous to He Yuzhu!

"Grandson, I haven't seen you for a long time. Grandma came to see you!"

"No, old lady, my grandma has been in the underworld for a long time, I have never seen her, please don't call her grandma, I am afraid it will shorten your life!"

He Yuzhu wanted to spit in her face. He didn't have the hobby of recognizing his ancestors. Instead of being a good person, he put himself in shackles? And then accept your moral kidnapping?
"Grandson, when your father was around, he always called me old lady. Are you confused?"

"Old lady, you have seen the people. I have something else to do at home, so I dare not disturb you. Please go in!"

The deaf old lady cursed He Yuzhu in her heart for not knowing what to look at. She could smell the aroma of meat in the backyard. Who in the compound didn't offer her a bowl of meat when they ate it?
"Grandson, I haven't eaten meat for a long time. Smell this rich meaty aroma. Why don't you invite grandma in to taste it?"

Seeing that He Yuzhu didn't react, the deaf old lady was ready to get straight to the point, "Silly Zhu is a silly Zhu. It's so rude of you to stand at the door and not let me in, an old man like me!"

"What? That's too much. Uncle Yi doesn't even let you eat meat. Wait for me to go ask Uncle Yi. Doesn't he pay for your food, clothing, housing and transportation? The good reputation belongs to him, but the old lady can't even eat enough!"

He Yuzhu suddenly became furious, and the sound could lift the roof off. Looking at the indignant He Yuzhu, the deaf old lady was at a loss, thinking that the way to open it was wrong!
Shouldn't you invite me in at this time? I made it so clear, he is indeed a fool, his brain circuit is different from that of ordinary people!
The deaf old lady complained in her heart and rubbed her ears with her left hand. Suddenly, the high-decibel sound almost made her tinnitus!

By the time she reacted, He Yuzhu had already walked to the door of Yi Zhonghai's house, which made the deaf old lady shocked!

She knew that Yi Zhonghai took care of her for his good reputation, but she also benefited from it. Yi Li was still very caring. If Sha Zhu made such a fuss, Yi Zhonghai's good reputation would be ruined. How could she be fine?
"Grandson..."

"Yi Zhonghai, get out here, you old bastard!" Before the deaf old lady could finish her words, He Yuzhu had already started yelling and cursing. The sound was so penetrating that people in the front and back yards could hear it. The "natives" of the courtyard house who had finished their meal and were preparing to "make babies" for entertainment instantly became interested!

It turns out that entertainment is not just "exercise" on the kang, watching performances is also a good choice!

Yi Zhonghai was stunned when he heard He Yuzhu's angry curses at home. Why are you mad at me instead of going to entertain your master and senior brothers, you idiot?
"Yi Zhonghai, get out here, you hypocrite!"

He's "Lion's Roar Skill" was activated again, and the rumbling sound waves could even be heard in the neighboring courtyard. They started looking for ladders and prepared to climb over the wall to watch the fun. This Courtyard No. 95 was really lively!
"Silly Zhu, what are you crazy about?"

Yi Zhonghai knew that he couldn't delay any longer. If he went out later, who knows what nasty things Sha Zhu would say to him. The key point was that he still didn't know the reason!
"Yi Zhonghai, you are a hypocrite. You act like you are taking care of an old widow in front of everyone, but secretly you don't give the old lady food or meat, forcing her to run to other people's houses to beg for food at such an old age!

If you can't serve, report to the Military Control Commission and the government will make reasonable arrangements!
You have taken the good reputation, and let the old lady become a 'beggar woman'. This is intolerable!"

He Yuzhu was filled with righteous indignation and angrily criticized Yi Zhonghai. The people in the courtyard knew what had happened. They also smelled the aroma of meat from He Yuzhu's house, but no one came to visit. What was the reason?
That was brought by the master to test his cooking skills. The courtyard is not soundproof, and any loud noise can be heard when walking in the yard. The deaf old lady relies on her age to eat and drink for free everywhere. They have been "suffering" from the deaf old lady for a long time!

Being angry but not daring to speak out is the truest reflection of their inner thoughts. Today, the deaf old lady was finally humiliated. Shazhu is "stupid" to begin with, and he must have misunderstood!

"Grandson, no..."

"Old lady, don't worry about it, I will definitely seek justice for you today!
Yi Zhonghai, you must give an explanation in front of everyone today!"

Looking at He Yuzhu who was not giving in, and then looking at the neighbors around and the outsiders on the wall, Yi Zhonghai felt dizzy. The old guy was so ungrateful!
He knows that the old man is greedy and buys meat every month to improve his life, but you can't eat meat every day, right?

Now that Sha Zhu has made such a fuss, the reputation he had worked so hard to build up is all gone!
"I support Shazhu's opinion. Lao Yi, you should make a promise in front of everyone!"

When He Yuzhu saw Liu Haizhong standing up, he immediately hid behind him. Everyone was amused. Wasn't he very brave just now? It had been a long time since anyone in the courtyard had pointed at Yi Zhonghai and scolded him. Now he was afraid?

The deaf old lady was panicked. She knew Yi Zhonghai too well. Now that he had suffered such a great deal, she probably wouldn't see any flesh for several months!
"Neighbor, the old lady must have smelled the meat from Sha Zhu's house and got greedy. She just had meat the day before yesterday. My husband brought it over personally!
How can we eat meat every day in this situation? That is the treatment of the landlords!"

Yi Zhonghai forced himself to calm down, reminding himself not to get angry, and even more so not to panic, otherwise all his efforts might be wasted!
"Yes, the old sister-in-law did bring it over. I saw it!"

"Yeah, yeah! I saw it too!"

He Yuzhu rolled his eyes. Yi Zhonghai, this hypocrite, was indeed powerful, but could he let Yi Zhonghai get away with it so easily?
