Siheyuan: Rebirth of Shazhu, Many Children and Blessings

"Let's change it." Ran Qiuye nodded. After all, there was no other way now.

So the two of them picked one that looked the newest.

When it came time to pay, He Yuzhu was the first to pay.

"Brother He, this is embarrassing. I should pay for it myself."

"Sister Qiuye, your tire was damaged because of me, so you should pay for it."

He Yuzhu said this and checked Ran Qiuye's bicycle again, got on the bike to try it out, and only rode it in front of her after he felt there was no problem.

"I tried it, and it's fine."

"Thank you, Brother He." Ran Qiuye felt very embarrassed for accepting He Yuzhu's favor, so she suggested, "How about I treat you to a meal?"

"Okay, then I won't be polite either." He Yuzhu was waiting for Ran Qiuye to say this.

If the relationship between men and women is to develop further, it will be impossible without this interaction.

Then the two of them found a nearby state-owned restaurant to eat.

"Brother He, what do you want to eat?"

"I'm fine with either. Just pick the one you like."

"Then I'll just order whatever I want." Ran Qiuye looked at He Yuzhu and smiled.

"Well, just order it."

Then Ran Qiuye quickly scanned the menu and ordered Dongpo pork, spicy beef, mapo tofu, and cabbage soup.

He Yuzhu looked at the dishes ordered by Ran Qiuye and asked with a smile: "Sister Qiuye, do you like Sichuan cuisine?"

"Yeah." Ran Qiuye nodded a little embarrassedly, "My parents always say that my taste is too strong, and they even doubt whether I am their biological child."

"That's a coincidence. I do have some experience in cooking Sichuan cuisine."

"Really?" Ran Qiuye looked at He Yuzhu in surprise, then he remembered that when he introduced himself before, he seemed to have said that he was a chef.

"Then Brother He, you must be a very good cook."

"It's not bad." He Yuzhu said modestly.

At this time, the waiter brought up the Mapo Tofu and rice.

"Brother He, eat quickly." Ran Qiuye handed the chopsticks to He Yuzhu, "My favorite is mapo tofu with rice."

"Okay." He Yuzhu took the chopsticks with a smile, then frowned after taking a bite.

"What's wrong?" Ran Qiuye had been paying attention to He Yuzhu, so she noticed it the moment he frowned.

"Nothing." He Yuzhu shook his head, "I just feel that this mapo tofu lacks a bit of flavor."

Hearing this, Ran Qiuye also tasted it, but she didn't feel anything special.

"I didn't feel anything when I ate it. But since Brother He is a chef, he must know more."

"These days, anyone can call himself a chef." The waiter who came to serve the dishes couldn't help but sneer when he heard this.

"Our chef's cooking skills have been recognized by many people. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."

Although He Yuzhu knew that the waiters in state-owned restaurants of that era had bad attitudes, this was the first time he had seen someone ridicule a customer in front of them.

"Comrade, do you have any basis for what you said? People coming to dinner can't even express their own opinions?"

He Yuzhu sneered, "Besides, whether I am a chef or not is none of your business."

"How can there be no basis for this? Many of the customers who come to our store are repeat customers, and they all come here for our chef's cooking skills."

The waiter was also a rude person. Seeing He Yuzhu's bad attitude, he immediately started yelling.

"As for you, you look like you are still an apprentice. How dare you show off in front of a girl?"

As the waiter said this, he looked at Ran Qiuye and tried to sow discord.

"Little girl, don't be fooled. Some people just don't have any ability, but they like to brag about themselves."

"How can you talk like that? Why are you talking nonsense here for no reason?" He Yuzhu slammed the table in anger.

"She's a good-looking girl, but she has a big mouth."

But if it’s just about swearing, He Yuzhu can do it too.

At this time, the quarrel between the two also attracted the attention of other people in the hotel.

Many of them were regular customers, so they knew the waiter, but they were just watching and no one came forward.

Everyone had seen the waiter's usual attitude, so no one intervened.

After seeing this scene, another waiter quickly ran to the cafeteria kitchen to find the chef.

The restaurant manager has something to do today, so he is not here at the moment, so the chef has the final say.

"Oh no, Master Wang, Huaer is quarreling with the guests again."

The waiter who ran over said anxiously: "It looks like they're almost going to fight."

Chef Wang, who was cooking, frowned and felt a little annoyed.

There has been no peace every day.

"Okay, I'll go out and take a look after this dish is done."

After Master Wang went out, he became even more eye-catching.

When he saw his waiter looking like he was about to take action, he quickly stepped forward to stop him.

"Flower, what's going on?"

"Master Wang!" The waiter pointed at He Yuzhu with both hands after seeing his chef.

"This person said that the mapo tofu you made tasted bad, so I couldn't help but say a few words to him, but he started swearing."

"..." He Yuzhu looked at this person speechlessly. He was really good at gossiping.

"Comrade, with so many people watching here, what's the point of lying like this?"

"I just said that the mapo tofu lacked flavor, and then my companion said I was the cook, and you started verbally attacking me, and everyone was listening."

"Yes, comrade, it was you who started to slander others. Why are you biting back now?" Ran Qiuye retorted softly.

"You are a chef too?" The chef surnamed Wang was focusing on something different. "What do you think is missing from the taste of my Mapo Tofu?"

"It's too spicy, not hot enough, and there's a very slight burnt smell, probably caused by overcooking."

Master Wang nodded after listening to He Yuzhu's words, "You sound like an expert."

"It seems that our waiter was indeed wrong." Master Wang turned around and looked at the angry waiter.

"Hua'er, apologize to them."

The chef had some prestige in the restaurant, so when he spoke, the waiter apologized even though he was reluctant.

"I'm sorry to interrupt your meal, but I'm busy now. Please continue."

After saying that, Master Wang left the lobby and returned to the kitchen.

He Yuzhu looked at Chef Wang's back and found that this man had quite a personality.

"Hmph." The waiter glared at He Yuzhu fiercely, then turned and left.

But whenever she brought over another dish, He Yuzhu told Ran Qiuye not to eat it.

"Why?" Ran Qiuye was a little confused, and his hand, which was about to pick up some food, stopped in mid-air.
