Siheyuan: I am different He Yuzhu

Chapter 153 Full Moon Wine

Jia Zhang's impotent rage did not change the reality that she was unable to attend the full-month banquet for He Yuzhu's three baby sons. As for her muttering, it was not even worthy of making He Yuzhu sneeze. It could only be said that the legendary undead summoner's magic power was not strong enough. Of course, it might also be because her undead babies were not full. After all, if both her husband and sons were offered sacrifices to the heavens, her magic power would not be infinite, but at least she would be able to break through the bottleneck of the Grandmaster and become a Grandmaster-level undead summoner.

After the dishes were served, He Yuzhu first came to the corridor between the front and middle courtyards, and then said enthusiastically: "Thank you all for coming to my son's full moon banquet today. Due to limited conditions, the dishes prepared today are a bit simple. Please forgive me for the shortcomings. Damao, light the firecrackers, and we will start the meal as soon as the firecrackers are finished."

"Enough." Xu Damao heard He Yuzhu's order to light the firecrackers. He took the cigarette out of his mouth, touched the fuse of the firecracker, and then hurriedly dodged.

After the firecrackers had finished popping, "Let's eat. After you finish the bowl of chicken, I have prepared some noodles. Just eat to your heart's content. You will definitely have a full lunch today. Ladies and gentlemen, I have two tables of guests at my house and I have to go and entertain them." As there were no outside guests, all of them were neighbors in the courtyard of No. 95, so no one was invited to stay with them.

Liu Haizhong spoke up first, "Zhu Zi, we have been neighbors for so many years, it's too polite of you to say that. Just go and do your work, Uncle San and I will take care of you here, Old Yan, don't you agree?"

Since the last conversation with He Yuzhu, Liu Haizhong has followed He Yuzhu's advice and insisted on going to the literacy class organized by the street office every night after get off work. After such a long period of study, he now feels that he is much stronger than before, and he firmly believes that as long as he persists in learning, he should be able to break through to the 7th level of blacksmithing soon. By then, the workshop director may be happy to promote him to team leader.

Combined with his own personal experience, Liu Haizhong increasingly felt that the advice He Yuzhu gave him at the beginning was a guiding light for him. He Yuzhu's words helped Liu Haizhong find the direction of his efforts in life. Now Liu Haizhong directly regards He Yuzhu as his mentor. Liu Haizhong has directly become a fan of He Yuzhu, so he is extremely enthusiastic about He Yuzhu, which is why he wants to speak before Yi Zhonghai.

"Zhu Zi, your second uncle is right, just mind your own business. Those sitting here are all neighbors of the courtyard, there are no outsiders. Those sitting in the house are today's guests of honor, you just need to entertain them well." After so long of observation, Yan Bugui found that He Yuzhu was deliberately keeping a distance from Yi Zhonghai. Based on this discovery, Yan Bugui felt that he didn't need to be submissive to Yi Zhonghai anymore. After all, the identities of the three of them as managers sounded intimidating, but they were nothing in front of He Yuzhu, a real cadre.

Yi Zhonghai looked at the dishes on the table in front of him with a gloomy face. He never expected that Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui would dare to greet He Yuzhu before he said anything. If this continued, the Siheyuan would be out of his, Yi Zhonghai's control. It seemed that he had to think of a way.

After He Yuzhu left, everyone stopped being polite and started eating without restraint. After all, He Yuzhu had started cooking in the morning, and everyone's appetite had been aroused by the aroma of He Yuzhu's cooking. Now that they could finally start eating, who would be polite?

In order to prepare for the big meal at noon, Yan Bugui, the actuary master, only asked the three aunts to cook a little porridge for breakfast in the morning, just to save his stomach for more food at noon. Yan Bugui stretched out his chopsticks and aimed at the braised pork that he had been eyeing for a long time. After careful comparison of this piece of braised pork, he found that it was the largest and most fat on the whole plate.

When Yan Bugui put the braised pork into his mouth at lightning speed, when his teeth touched the braised pork, before Yan Bugui could bite hard, the fat on the braised pork had been separated from the lean meat. The aroma of the braised pork was mellow and fat without being greasy. The rich taste and delicate meat made Yan Bugui intoxicated, as if dancing on his taste buds. After Yan Bugui swallowed the braised pork in his mouth, he picked up another piece. This time, Yan Bugui was not in a hurry to put it into his mouth, but carefully observed the braised pork. This braised pork was amazing. Its color was bright red, and it looked like a cherry. It was also trembling slightly with the shaking of the chopsticks.

The other people at the table were not as elegant as Yan Bugui. They ate like starving ghosts.

He Yuzhu came to the main hall of his own house, where there were two large octagonal tables. Sitting at one table were his master Wu Baotian, Guan Xuezon, Cai Quanwu, and Wu Baotian's sons and sons-in-law, and at the other table were the women of Wu Baotian's family and the women of Cai Quanwu's family.

"Master, Master's Wife, Uncle, I'm sorry, I just went to greet the neighbors in my yard."

"It's okay, Zhuzi, we are all family, you don't need to greet them, just take care of those outsiders first." Wu Baotian said with a smile.

"Today's preparations were a bit hasty, so the food is a bit simple, so everyone just make do with it."

"Zhu Zi, it's okay. This is much better than what we usually eat at home. There is always a table of guests in the rain house. You can go and greet them. You don't have to worry about us. There is no outsider in this house." Liu E said with a smile.

"Okay, Master's Wife, I'll go around the rain room first. You guys eat slowly and I'll be back later."

After He Yuzhu left, Wu Baotian pointed at the braised pork on the table and said, "Youren, Erming, you are also cooks. Take a look at the braised pork made by Zhuzi. He made such a big pot of braised pork in one go. The appearance and taste are not bad at all. Go back and think about it carefully. You two are older than Zhuzi and have been learning cooking for more years, but your cooking skills are far inferior to Zhuzi."

"Also, you are polite, but don't be too happy too soon. Your senior brother Zhuzi started learning cooking at our house when he was 12, and became a master at 16. You will be 18 soon, but you are so lazy all day long that you can't even cook."

"Dad, my second brother also can't cook, why don't you tell him something. Mom, please take care of my dad." Wu Youli muttered.

When Wu Baotian heard that Wu Youli dared to talk back, he immediately said with a straight face: "Your second brother was admitted to high school and is now a state official. Why does he, a state official, want to learn how to cook? You didn't study hard when you were in school and didn't even get into high school. If you were admitted to high school like your second brother, would I ask you to learn how to cook? You will be 18 soon. What are you going to do? Your mother spoils you too much."

"I plan to work in a factory as a worker. I don't want to be a cook. When I turn 18, I will go to the factory to sign up. I want to be a worker." Wu Youli said excitedly.

"Boss, today is Zhuzi's wedding day. Isn't it nice for the family to get together and have a happy meal? Why do you have to choose this time to teach the children a lesson? Besides, although Youli's academic performance is not very good, he has not done anything bad. He is not like those street thugs who hang around and do nothing all day long. What's the matter? Will you be satisfied only if all the children become chefs?" Liu E retorted bluntly.

"He dares! If he dares to hang out with those hooligans on the street, I will break his legs!" Wu Baotian's face darkened and he said seriously, "Besides, what's wrong with being a chef? If I hadn't been a chef, would I have been able to raise five brothers and sisters to adulthood?"

Wu Youyi quickly advised: "Dad, don't be angry. When Youli turns 18, I will help him find a job. I will never let him stay idle at home."

"By the way, there's Youyi. Look, Zhuzi is two years younger than you, and he already has a child, but you don't even have a wife. Your mother found a matchmaker to introduce you to a girl, but you didn't like any of them. Are you going to marry all the fairies in the world?" When Wu Baotian heard Wu Youyi say this, the expression on his face suddenly relaxed a lot. But when he thought about the fact that Wu Youyi was in his 2s and not in a hurry to find a wife, he couldn't help nagging a few words.

When Wu Youyi heard this, he quickly explained, "Dad, it's not that I don't want to find someone, but I think it's too early now. I want to wait another two years until my career is stable. Besides, I don't want to just find someone to marry. I want to find someone who is really right for me."

Wu Baotian was still a little dissatisfied after hearing this, but he couldn't say anything more and could only sigh helplessly. At this time, Wu Xiangyun couldn't stand it anymore. She put down her chopsticks and said directly: "Dad, please don't say anything. Just listening to you affects my meal. I have heard from Yu Shui a long time ago how delicious this big pot of chicken made by my brother Zhuzi is. Please let me eat in peace, Dad, I beg you."

When Wu Baotian saw his beloved little daughter speaking, he immediately changed his expression and smiled, "Okay, okay, I'll let you guys go today." Then, Wu Baotian smiled and said to Wu Xiangyun, "Xiangyun, why don't you tell daddy if you want to eat? Daddy will make it for you."

Hearing this, Wu Xiangyun raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said coquettishly: "Dad, you work so hard cooking in the restaurant, how can I bear to let you cook for me when you get home from get off work? Besides, I have eaten your dishes, I just want to taste the taste of Brother Zhuzi's cooking." After that, she continued to eat. Wu Baotian shook his head helplessly, his eyes full of pampering.

"Yushui, you really didn't lie to me. The big pot of chicken and wine made by Brother Zhuzi is delicious. I decided that I will come to help my sister-in-law Xiao'e take care of the children this summer."

"I see you don't want to come and take care of the child, you just want to come to your brother Zhuzi's house and eat for free." Liu E said with a smile. "If you really want to help your sister-in-law Xiao'e take care of the child, then take good care of it, don't just play around, and let your aunt Xiulian have a rest."

Su Xiulian smiled and said, "Sister Liu, it's okay. It's not tiring to take care of children. Zhuzi's three children are very well behaved and not noisy at all. Xiangyun, if you want to come and play, just come. It's a good opportunity for you to talk to your sister-in-law. You and your sister-in-law are about the same age, so you two should have a lot to talk about."

"Don't worry, mother. Since I said I would help my sister-in-law Xiao'e take care of the child, then I will definitely help. Besides, I have experience. I have taken care of Jiarui before. Jiarui, do you think you will be happy following your aunt?"

"Happy. I love playing with my aunt the most." Wu Jiarui answered very obediently.

"Jiarui is so good. Come here, let your aunt pick up a chicken leg for you." Wu Xiangyun picked up the chicken leg from the bowl and gave it to Wu Jiarui, and casually touched Wu Jiarui's head.

"Yushui, I'll come to your house and live in the same room with you. Do you welcome me?"

"I definitely welcome you, Sister Xiangyun, you might as well not leave today." He Yushui said excitedly.

"No way, I came here in a hurry today and didn't bring any clothes. I'll come back tomorrow with some clothes."

"It's okay if you didn't bring clothes. After dinner, you can ride my sister-in-law's bicycle and take me to your house to get clothes. We can just come back then." He Yushui said hurriedly.

"Okay then, let's do as you say. After dinner, we'll go to my house to get clothes, and I'll stay at your house tonight." Wu Xiangyun thought for a moment and said, not forgetting to high-five He Yushui.

Wu Baotian also picked up a piece of chicken and put it into his mouth. After tasting it carefully, he nodded and said, "Zhuzi's cooking skills are indeed better than mine. No wonder Xiangyun wants to eat Zhuzi's cooking." After saying that, Wu Baotian's face showed a hint of loneliness.

"Dad, Brother Zhuzi's skills are better than yours, you should be happy. There is a saying that a good teacher produces good students. Brother Zhuzi's skills are so good, doesn't it just prove that you, as a master, taught him well?" Wu Xiangyun hurriedly said when she saw that her father looked a little lonely.

"Haha, my little daughter is still good at talking. Humph, she knows how to feel sorry for her father, unlike the three ungrateful people." When Wu Baotian heard Wu Xiangyun's words, his face immediately broke into a smile. Then he thought of his three sons and couldn't help complaining again: "These three unfilial sons!"

When Wu Youyi and his two brothers heard this, they did not refute it, but just continued to eat. They were used to this kind of scene. Besides the married elder sister Wu Xiangxiu, only the younger sister Wu Xiangyun could please their father. As for the three brothers, their father would find fault with them every day. However, if it was Wu Youyi's son, it would be a different scene.
