Siheyuan: He Yuzhu's rebirth in the 21st century

Lou's mother suddenly smelled a familiar aroma of food coming from the restaurant...

Seeing her husband and He Yuzhu sitting in the living room chatting, she sneaked into the restaurant to check.

There were already six delicious dishes on the table.

"Wait a minute! This dish is... bird's nest in clear soup?!"

"Isn't this our family cuisine? How can Chef He make it?"

"Hey! No matter what cuisine he can cook, he is just a cook who serves people after all!"

"How can I let Xiao'e marry a servant-like being..."

She suppressed the urge to taste a few bites and returned to the living room with a gloomy face.

……

"Xiao He is handsome, but unfortunately he is a cook... ahem~"

"You are a third generation hired farmer, so you have a good background, haha~"

"Xiao He, I heard from Xiao'e that you are in charge of the steel mill cafeteria?"

Lou Zhenhua was just about to complain when he suddenly saw his daughter's unfriendly eyes, so he decisively admitted his mistake and changed his words.

"Yes, uncle. I was fortunate enough to be the canteen director of the steel mill, responsible for the operation of the canteen and the cafeteria~"

He Yuzhu answered truthfully.

"The canteen director should be at the department level, not bad, he is young and promising!"

"Xiao He, have you ever encountered any difficulties in your work?"

"You should have heard of me. I am currently the honorary director of our factory, so I can still have a say in some matters!"

"I might as well tell you that the shop you use for your cafeteria was donated by your aunt for free!"

Lou Zhenhua looked very proud, as if he had a lot of say in the factory.

However, the reality is that he has already been marginalized, so how can he have any say?

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be unable to solve even his own daughter’s employment problem!

Not to mention the dividends that are due...

But in front of He Yuzhu, that doesn't stop him from pretending!

"Thank you for your kindness, uncle~"

“You may not know this, but the cafeteria has been taken away from the steel mill by the Ministry of Commerce!”

"I have been busy for most of the day just for this matter, and I will also be working in the Ministry of Commerce..."

How could He Yuzhu not hear that his future father-in-law was trying to act smart? Then don't blame yourself for acting smart too!

Anyway, you installed it first!

"The cafeteria was taken over by the Ministry of Commerce!? How come I didn't know... ahem~"

Lou Zhenhua seemed very surprised that the restaurant was taken away.

He couldn't understand which fool in the factory would agree to hand over the cafeteria, a huge cash cow! ?

He realized that he had lost his composure and tried to explain himself.

"The main reason is that I was not feeling well today and did not go to the steel mill. I really didn't know about this! Haha~"

In fact, since the public-private partnership, he could only go to the steel mill during major holidays such as the factory anniversary or National Day.

Normally there is no place for him in the factory...

"Uncle, it's normal that you don't know that the buffet restaurant was taken over by the Ministry of Commerce. The number of people who know about this can be counted on one hand!"

To ease his embarrassment, He Yuzhu told a little white lie~

If you embarrass your father-in-law, you will be the one who gets hurt in the end!

"Oh~ I thought so!"

"Well, Xiao He... Comrade He Yuzhu, what level will you be in after you arrive at the Ministry of Commerce?"

"Should it be a horizontal transfer?!"

Lou Zhenhua was quite satisfied with his performance and looked much better!

Even the names have changed.

"Uncle, why don't you call me Zhuzi?"

"I moved up a little in the rank of the Commercial Department and am currently a director-level cafeteria manager."

He Yuzhu replied nonchalantly.

"Director level is good... Wait! Director level!?"

"Zhu Zi, you said you are a director? Are you kidding me?"

Lou Zhenhua was shocked when he heard this!

Are you kidding me?

How could He Yuzhu, a cook with no background and so young, become a director-level cadre?

I handed over most of the steel rolling mill back then, and only then did I get a nominal deputy-department-level director!

Still don't have any real power...

Why is it so irritating to compare yourself to others? !

Lou's mother, who was sitting next to them, was also shocked.

She originally looked down on He Yuzhu because he was a cook.

Even if he is a good cook, it won’t work!

Disgraceful!

But what did she just hear?

A poor cook suddenly became a director-level cadre! ?

It is no different from an ancient dung collector transforming himself into a county magistrate...

My daughter said she is dating He...son-in-law, right?!

What are you waiting for? You must enter the bridal chamber today!

Which cadre would dare to marry the daughter of a capitalist these days?

Now that one has appeared, we must catch him!

"Zhenhua, how about we eat first?"

"Zhu Zi, your uncle-in-law is happy today, you should drink a few more cups with him~"

The more Lou's mother looked at He Yuzhu, the more she liked him. She wished she could accept him as her son-in-law on the spot!

"Yes, let's go eat. I'm already drooling at the aroma coming from the restaurant~"

"Zhu Zi, I guess you made those dishes yourself, right?"

"Our chef can't make this taste!"

Father Lou hurriedly called He Yuzhu, fearing that he would refuse to stay for dinner.

"Yes, uncle. I didn't know what dishes you and aunt liked, so I just made a few at random!"

He Yuzhu stood up and followed him to the restaurant.

On the way, he did not forget to wink at Xiao'e, looking very proud!

This made Xiao'e roll her eyes!

"My girl, go get the bottle of special supply that I treasure. Dad is going to have sex with your boyfriend until he gets drunk today!"

Father Lou was in a good mood and told Xiao'e to get some wine.

"Zhu Zi, don't be polite, pick up your chopsticks and eat the food!"

"Um... Uncle and aunt, please go first and try my cooking."

He Yuzhu saw that Lou's father and mother were looking at him enthusiastically, so he felt embarrassed...

Damn! Being a director-level official is different. You can start eating first when you go to your father-in-law’s house!

"Cheng~Zhuzi, don't be so formal, eat and drink, this will be your home from now on!"

Father and Mother Lou were very pleased to see him being so polite!

Xiao'e finally found a good man!

They could no longer hold back their appetite and picked up their chopsticks to eat.

"Mmm~ delicious! This is the most delicious scallion-fried sea cucumber I have ever eaten, better than the one made by Fengzeyuan!"

"Zhenhua, try this sweet and sour carp. It's plump and tender, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and sweet and sour..."

"Madam, try this bird's nest soup. It tastes exactly the same as your family's recipe!"

"Really! Even more authentic than what my family used to make!"

After Lou's mother tasted the bird's nest in clear soup, a myriad of thoughts came to her mind and tears began to fall.

"Mom, it's all over, why are you still reacting so strongly?"

Xiao'e quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

"It's okay, Mom has already let it go, otherwise she wouldn't have handed over the Tan family's dishes!"

"Mom just didn't expect to taste such authentic Tan's cuisine again after so many years!"

“Seeing things reminds me of my feelings!”

Mother Lou smiled at Xiao'e to indicate that she was fine, then picked up her chopsticks and continued to taste the bird's nest in the clear soup.

"Oh? Auntie, you also know Tan's cuisine?!"

He Yuzhu asked knowingly and pretended to be shocked.
