Siheyuan: Rebirth of He Yuzhu, God of Cooking starts

After seeing Chen Xueru off, He Yuzhu planned to go home first. But this time he chose to go to Maoer Hutong instead of Siheyuan, because it was deserted there, so it was better to stay in Maoer Hutong temporarily. This time he decided to keep a low profile and did not distribute furs to avoid too much attention and the re-opening of past disputes.

It doesn't matter if you dress worse, what matters is the quality of life and the enjoyment of food. Just as the meat in a bun does not depend on the number of wrinkles, the true taste does not lie in superficial display.

Unlike those who only care about their appearance, some people have to apply lard on their faces before going out to pretend to be wealthy, but in fact they don't really enjoy it.

Those who truly understand the art of living and have rich experience know that after eating meat, they will only wipe their lips carefully to show their extraordinary taste.

He Yuzhu carried vegetables, tofu and mutton. In the severe cold, hot pot was undoubtedly the greatest comfort.

When he entered the door, he had already put on the scarf that Mu Chunhua had carefully knitted for him.

"You're back."

"Yes, I'm back."

Mu Chunhua sensed something in her nose: "Why do you smell a faint fragrance?"

It was beyond He Yuzhu's expectation that Mu Chunhua was also so sensitive to such details.

He explained: "It may be the smell of something I just bought, or it may have rubbed off on someone else."

Although she had doubts in her heart, Mu Chunhua was not sure.

"How about we go to grandpa's room to eat?" He Yuzhu suggested.

He Yushui was puzzled and asked: "Why?"

"Mutton has a bit of a mutton smell, and eating it will fill the whole house with it."

But Mu Chunhua said with a smile: "Then you can let Dad feel the smell!"

He Yuzhu retorted: "He is old again, he won't mind too much."

So they gathered around the hot copper pot, lit the charcoal, and boiled the water.

The old shepherd looked at He Yuzhu scrutinizingly and asked, "What about the fruit wine you mentioned?"

"Oh, I forgot." He Yuzhu admitted it simply.

In fact, he did not forget, but he deliberately avoided letting the old man taste it.

"You still lied to my father?"

"How about letting you drink some of the Moutai you have today?"

In response, He Yuzhu said helplessly: "I can't make the decision on this matter, just let me go this time."

"As long as Huaduo (Mu Chunhua) agrees, there will be no problem." He looked at Mu Chunhua and pleaded.

Seeing the pitiful look in her elderly father's eyes, Mu Chunhua thought about the hard work of taking care of him for a long time and the current cold weather, and felt that it would not be a problem for her to drink less.

So she took out her shot glass and said, "Only two cents will do!"

"Are you dissatisfied with anything else?"

"No, I am very satisfied."

The old man stopped her immediately and said, "Don't do that, otherwise the two cents of wine will be in danger."

After dinner, He Yushui slowly fell asleep on the warm kang in the old house. He Yuzhu stopped his mother who was about to leave.

"Don't move her, just let her sleep in the room."

Looking at her sleeping daughter, Mu Chunhua silently understood what her husband meant and finally complied with his wishes.

She realized that there seemed to be an invisible gap between her and He Yuzhu.

After dinner, He Yuzhu and Mu Chunhua returned to their room.

"Zhu Zi, do you already have a woman you like outside?" Mu Chunhua asked tentatively.

He remained silent, but this seemed to her to be the default answer.

He began to explain: "Hua'er, I didn't mean to betray you. I knew that woman before I met you."

After recounting what happened, he continued:

"No matter what, it was my fault that I lost control of my impulse!"

"No," Mu Chunhua interrupted. She had said at that time, "I only belong to you in this life."

"I don't care about status, but have you ever thought about how we will live together in the future?"

"I've already told her about you. If she can't accept you, I won't accept her either."

When the two were very close, He Yuzhu tried to make a move.

However, Mu Chunhua dodged.

“It’s almost dawn.”

Well, to be exact, Mu Chunhua was a little scared.

He Yuzhu is such a tireless person who never stops.

At this moment, Mu Chunhua was thinking that it would be nice to have another sister to share the burden with in the future.

Noticing Mu Chunhua's avoidance, He Yuzhu understood what Chen Xueru said: girls need time to adapt slowly and it is a process.

He Yuzhu slept until the sun was high in the sky and returned to the factory at noon.

After lunch, he returned to work.

Chen Xueru came over and asked, "Where did you go?"

He Yuzhu answered truthfully: "I just fell asleep and forgot to get up."

"Luckily I bought you lunch, otherwise your promise to prepare it for others would have become a joke."

As he spoke, he took out two packs of cigarettes and said, "Take these over."

"I'll go tell Lao Zhao to bring meals here every day."

Chen Xueru reminded: "The workers have agreed to work overtime at night, so dinner must be prepared."

He Yuzhu agreed: "It's a small matter."

She sniffed: "What's that smell coming from you?"

He Yuzhu... Is this the end? Is a woman's sense of smell really that sensitive?

“I don’t know, it should be the smell of the workshop.”

"I went to talk to Lao Zhao."

Chen Xueru left the office and walked towards the dormitory area, still thinking about the smell of He Yuzhu.

Humph, is he a man? I have to keep an eye on him next time, lest he goes out and flirts with other girls.

It's just that I didn't satisfy you a few days ago, so you started to have evil thoughts, right?

"Zhu Zi, wait, I've been looking for you."

"Brother Sun, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"You know Yan Bugui, right?"

He Yuzhu nodded: "I know him."

"You are a terrible neighbor."

He Yuzhu guessed: "He came to you for work?"

Sun Hongsheng was a little annoyed: "It's not that I don't give you face! This old man is too unreasonable. He thinks that a few packs of cigarettes and bottles of wine can get him transferred?"

He knew Yan Bugui was stingy, but he seemed willing to be more generous before...

Is this what you call generous?

"Brother Sun, don't be angry. After all, he is just a neighbor."

"He said something nice a while ago, but I didn't expect him to go back on his word."

"Let's just ignore him."

Sun Hongsheng was satisfied after hearing this: "Since you said so, I feel relieved."

He will notify the security department to prevent Yan Bugui from entering the factory again.

Then, I came to the deputy section chief's office.

"Old Zhao, can you please help me with something?"

The section chief asked, “What’s the matter?”

"From now on, at noon and in the evening, please help me deliver the meals from the cafeteria to my home to the decorator."

Zhao Jianshe understood: "That's the request, no problem."

At the same time, he also said: "After they finish the renovation, if you want to do this, remember to tell me, I also plan to renovate my house."

He Yuzhu added: "You don't have to wait until the work is finished, you can go and ask them directly, they may be able to recommend some more craftsmen for you."

"By the way, are you short of money for renovation?"

Zhao Jianshe shook his head: "I made a lot of money this time, so I don't need to worry for now."
