Siheyuan: The romantic and suave Xu Damao

Xu Damao smiled and said proudly, "Hey, don't play dumb, aren't you a chef? Remember you promised to cook for me. Now, cook this fish and fill this lunch box."

As he said this, he handed the big black fish to He Yuzhu and placed another big lunch box on the table.

He Yushui stood aside, looking at the big fish in amazement, and couldn't help but praise it, thinking that the fish was really too big.

He Yuzhu took the fish, frowned, and said, "Your fish is too big. Even if it is cooked, this lunch box can't hold so much."

Xu Damao replied nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter if it can't fit in, you can keep it for yourself. Although you promised to help me cook, I can't let you help for nothing, I don't have that thick skin!"

When He Yushui heard this, her eyes lit up and she looked at her brother He Yuzhu with anticipation, hoping that he would leave some fish for her to taste.

Although this lunch box is not small, the fish is too big, so it can only hold half of it at most. In this way, can't the rest be tasted by me and silly brother?

Thinking of this, He Yushui couldn't help but secretly rejoice. You know, she hasn't tasted fish for a long time.

Seeing his sister's expectant eyes, He Yuzhu agreed without hesitation: "No problem, leave it to me! I guarantee it will be delicious!"

After that, He Yuzhu proudly carried the fish into the kitchen. Seeing this, Xu Damao also followed him in curiously, wondering if he could learn a few tricks from him.

After all, he had heard of He Yuzhu's cooking skills.

Entering the kitchen, I saw He Yuzhu skillfully pick up a sharp kitchen knife, carefully slaughter the black fish, and clean it carefully.

His movements were as smooth as flowing water, and the kitchen knife in his hand seemed to have turned into a scalpel in the hands of a surgeon, precise and skillful.

Then, he began to carefully prepare the various materials and seasonings needed for cooking. Xu Damao watched curiously and found that these side dishes and ingredients were of various types.

Some of them he couldn't even name, but he recognized common spices like star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves and Sichuan peppercorns.

After busying around in the kitchen for a while, a delicious black fish dish was finally completed.

He Yuzhu opened the lid of the pot, and the rich aroma of fish filled his nose. He picked up a spoon and gently poured the fish soup over the black fish, allowing it to fully absorb the delicious soup.

Then, he scooped another spoonful of fish soup, tasted it, and nodded to show his satisfaction. Then, he picked up a piece of fish meat with chopsticks, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully, feeling the tender and juicy taste.

Finally, he put the fish meat and fish soup into Xu Damao's lunch box until the lunch box was full.

Xu Damao picked up the lunch box, smelled the fragrant black fish, and nodded with satisfaction. He smiled and said to He Yuzhu: "Shazhu, you are the best at cooking! The chefs in those small restaurants can't compare to your skills!"

After saying that, he gave a thumbs up and praised. He Yuzhu smiled, said nothing, and just continued to work.

Xu Damao left He Yuzhu's house with the lunch box and took away a steamed cornmeal steamed bun.

When he got home, he put the black fish on the dining table, sat down, and couldn't wait to taste it. The fish meat was tender, delicious, and had an excellent taste, which made him exclaim in admiration.

While eating, he said to himself: "Sure enough, the dishes made by Sha Zhu are still delicious. He really deserves to be called the Holy Chef!"

After eating, Xu Damao burped and touched his stomach with satisfaction.

He thought, how wonderful it would be if he could eat such delicious food every day! So he decided to ask He Yuzhu to help him cook more often in the future. It would be a waste if he didn't use it. Anyway, he wouldn't let him work for nothing.

After walking around in the portable space for a while, Xu Damao felt a little tired, so he came back to rest. He lay on the kang and fell asleep soon.

Early the next morning, when it was still light, Xu Damao rubbed his eyes, stretched, and got up from the bed.

He simply washed up and went out to the factory to take on today's screening assignment.

After completing the screening task, we came to the village and lived in a house arranged by the village chief.

The next morning, the sky was still dark, with only faint stars twinkling.

Xu Damao got up early, gently opened the door, took out his bicycle, said goodbye to the village chief, and quickly set off for home.

I was thinking about my meeting with Mr. Liu today and hoped to get back to the capital as soon as possible.

After a long ride, when we finally arrived in the capital, a long time had passed, but it was still just past ten in the morning.

Xu Damao first returned to the steel rolling mill, retrieved his bicycle, and then carefully put some samples prepared last night into the basket behind the bicycle.

Then, he rushed to the market to look for Zhang Tietou and Huang Genwang.

Zhang Tietou saw Xu Damao riding his bike towards them from a distance, and immediately shouted to Huang Genwang beside him: "Hey, Genwang, Brother Damao is here, close the stall!"

As he spoke, he quickly began to tidy up the stall, sorting out the items on the ground one by one.

After hearing the call, Huang Genwang also quickly took action, and the two of them cleaned up the stall efficiently.

"Brother, you're here. When are we going to look for Master Liu?" Zhang Tietou asked Xu Damao while he looked up at him.

"There is no time to lose, let's go now. You two get on your bikes and follow me." Xu Damao said to the two of them.

"Okay!" Zhang Tietou and Huang Genwang responded in unison, then quickly got on their bicycles and followed Xu Damao.

"I didn't realize that you two are dressed like ordinary people today. I never see you two dressed so well and comb your hair so neatly. Why are you two dressing up to meet Mr. Liu?"

Xu Damao looked at the two of them and said.

Xu Damao hadn't noticed yet that Zhang Tietou and Huang Genwang were wearing brand new black cotton robes and black cotton gloves on their hands. They were dressed exactly the same.

"Hehe, since we know that we are going to discuss business with Mr. Liu with my elder brother, we can't let him down, so we went to the clothing store and bought two identical cotton robes."

Zhang Tietou said with a chuckle.

"What's so impressive about that? We are just going there to discuss business. We are all doing business. Don't do what you think is right. This is a new era!" Xu Damao said speechlessly.

"When the time is over, just do what you need to do. Be generous and don't be so timid, okay?" Xu Damao added.
