Siheyuan: Rebirth of He Yuzhu, God of Cooking starts

"Brother Zhu, see if you can help get a house for my eldest sister. She's about to get engaged."

"It's just this house that's missing!"

As for the gold bar, why not give it to him secretly...

Well, considering that the two brothers are pretty close, I gave up the idea.

He Yuzhu laughed and said, "Uncle Xu, this thing is really hot!"

"Last year during the Chinese New Year, there was a lot of commotion because of the house. Even Director Yang was blocked outside the door and almost couldn't get in."

"Those workers nearly surrounded the Great Hall."

Xu Damao urged: "Brother Zhu, you are the person in charge of logistics, you should be more powerful in this area."

He Yuzhu remained silent.

"It's definitely not possible to use the workers' dormitories, which are allocated to the leaders, and there are no extra houses available now."

"The only way is to negotiate with the street office, but it's not easy."

"Uncle Xu, Damao, it's not that I don't want to do this."

Xu Huiqiu said: "Brother Zhuzi, I know it is difficult. But after I remarry, I hope to find a first marriage partner. I don't want to live in the man's house and serve the elderly."

"Without a house, we can't live separately."

He Yuzhu was puzzled: "Sister, why didn't you mention finding a partner before the New Year?"

Xu Huiqiu smiled and said, "It's suitable after all."

Xu Damao added: "It was the people from that workshop who often stared at my sister during lunch time."

"Shop workers?"

"Yes, a formal employee."

I thought of the previous conversation with Li Huaide and the plan to build housing for the workers.

"Don't tell anyone about this for now. Li Huaide and I have already agreed on this before the New Year. As long as we get a nod from above, I can solve the housing problem."

Hearing this, Xu's mother asked anxiously: "Zhu Zi, continue!"

"Many factory workers have nowhere to live, right? I asked Li Huaide to apply for a building for the workers, like a dormitory for singles, only smaller, with each household only a dozen square meters, cooking in the corridor, and a shared toilet."

"We will sell it to employees in the form of leasing."

Xu Fugui listened carefully: "Be more specific."

"Every month, a portion of the workers' wages is deducted to cover the cost of the house until the house is fully paid for."

"Of course, the factory has to estimate the construction cost and just charge the cost price."

Xu Fugui stroked his chin and thought: "But I still have to pay for the house myself, right?"

He Yuzhu nodded to confirm: "That's right."

"It will take a long time to build the house and repay the loan. There are too many uncertainties. The room itself is not big. Ten square meters is definitely not enough for a family to live in. What should I do when the baby is born in the future?"

"I don't think this is cost-effective. Forget it. It's more practical to live in a bungalow."

He Yuzhu thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll give it a try."

He put the gold bar in his pocket. Even though they had a good relationship, He Yuzhu still chose to accept the benefit. It was a matter of principle.

I don’t know where Xu Fu found it from, but anyway!

As for the Xu family, they were also very happy to see this. They could see that accepting the gift was a sign of their commitment to help!

If you refuse to accept it, it is equivalent to politely declining their help.

He Yuzhu turned to Xu Huiqiu and said, "Sister, you have to prepare a wedding banquet for your wedding, right?"

"No need!" Xu Huiqiu responded, "Their family is limited, otherwise they would not allow a remarried woman like me to find a partner."

He Yuzhu touched his chin and thought: "This won't work."

"Whether they hold a banquet or not is their own business."

"Maozi, prepare two banquets for Big Sister to show her support. This way, Big Sister Huiqiu will have more confidence to face the challenges in life in the future!"

Xu Damao gnawed on the chicken leg in his hand and mumbled, "It's just a small matter."

"Hold it in the old courtyard. Look at how anxious those people are."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Why? Is there any new trouble in the old courtyard?"

Xu Damao replied: "You haven't been back for so long, it's normal that you don't know."

"Liu Haizhong has become more arrogant, and Yan Bugui has become more cunning."

"The deaf old lady is really driving me crazy. Every day, one family after another comes to take turns to serve her. She is such a burden..."

"By the way, didn't someone named Jia Dongxu run off to the Northeast? He has no male children at home and needs to be taken care of."

He Yuzhu gloated: "Thank God I don't live there."

"Tsk, even if you go back, no one will find fault with you!"

"I'm different," He Yuzhu paused, "What about you? You know in your heart what they can do to you."

"That's right." Xu Damao continued, "Brother, now that the little bastard surnamed Yi is not at home, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui are fighting for Yi Zhonghai's former position as if it were a treasure!"

"Especially since Liu Hai became the squadron leader, where is the place for him in the whole old hospital?"

"I don't think he can hold on to his position as captain."

Xu Damao asked: "Do you want him to pack up and leave?"

He Yuzhu waved his hand, rejecting his guess: "Nonsense, how could I do such a thing? I don't have the final say in the workshop!"

"Given that guy's personality, he will get into trouble sooner or later. Unless he leaves on his own and Yi Zhonghai comes back, that will be a relief."

Although they did different jobs, Liu Haizhong was not as good as Yi Zhonghai in terms of technology, popularity, and even calculation, and the position of the team leader was about to be lost. The director of a workshop had already begun to complain about Liu Haizhong's behavior.

After all, he only relies on the number of his disciples to suppress others. When Yi Zhonghai returns, it is really hard to predict who will win.

Xu Damao suddenly changed the subject: "Brother, the child adopted by the Yi family can now call me mom!"

"Mother Yi was so happy that she was beaming with joy every day. She seemed to be just as happy as ever."

After eating and drinking, He Yuzhu drove Xu Damao and Xu Huiqiu back to the courtyard.

As soon as he saw the gate of the courtyard, Xu Damao immediately said, "This must be our home."

"It was your eldest sister who renovated it, and I helped you tidy up the inside."

He Yuzhu clasped his fists towards Xu Huiqiu and thanked her: "Big sister, your kindness is really..."

"Xiao Zhu, you don't even have enough time to take care of me at the factory, and you're still helping me with these things?" There was a strong hint of sarcasm in her words.

In fact, He Yuzhu just came to take a look and had no other intentions.

Coincidentally, as soon as they entered the door, they met a deaf old lady coming back from outside.

"Hey, Zhuzi." She called out.

"Happy New Year, old lady! You are so strong." He Yuzhu quickly responded and wished her a happy new year.

"You said you would come back, but you won't come back, Zhuzi?" the deaf old lady looked at him and asked.

He Yuzhu shook his head: "I went to Damao's house to drink and have fun, and came back to take a look."

"Zhu Zi, since you left grandma, things at home have been getting worse day by day..."

"Don't mention it, grandma. I heard that you are doing well!"
