Siheyuan: I became a truck driver

"Huh? Ah?!" He Daqing was stunned when he reacted.

"Oh, uncle, don't misunderstand me. I mean, you must feel guilty for asking me for help for no reason. So, in order to prevent you from feeling guilty, I thought of a way. You can teach me how to cook."

He Daqing's mouth twitched. Guilty? But I don't feel guilty? Neighbors helping each other, what's there to feel guilty about?

But how can I refuse?

You said all the nice things and you were thinking about me, what can I do?

So, He Daqing gritted his teeth and nodded, "Okay, then... let's do as you say."

"Okay, then, uncle, can you write a recipe for me so I can go back and try it?" Xiao Yun continued.

"this…"

"Don't worry, I won't steal your job. I'm just cooking for my family. The reason I'm looking for you is, first, because we know each other well, and second, your cooking suits my taste." Xiao Yun explained patiently, "Of course, if you feel embarrassed, I can buy it for 200 yuan, and I will give this 200 yuan to He Yushui according to certain batches."

He Daqing was a little hesitant. Although his life was easy, he still felt a little painful to take out the hundred yuan today.

If I give the recipe to Xiao Yun, not only will I not have to spend any money, but I can also get two hundred dollars for free. This is a good thing.

Besides, Mr. Xiao’s grandson would never become a cook, so he didn’t need to worry about him stealing his business.

Besides, my superb cooking skills are the result of practice, not just recipes.

Give it to him, there's no harm in it.

Soon, He Daqing figured out the pros and cons and nodded immediately, "Okay, Xiao Yun, I'll do as you say. I'll go get you the recipe now!"

Just as he was about to leave, Xiao Yun grabbed his arm and said, "Hey, uncle, don't be anxious. I just have something to ask you. If you asked me to pay He Yushui a fixed amount of money regularly, and I not only didn't pay it, but also embezzled it myself, what would you do?"

He Daqing was stunned and stared at Xiao Yun deeply, not knowing what he was trying to say.

At the same time, he was thinking frantically in his mind.

But no matter how he thought about it, he didn't think Xiao Yun would do such a thing, let alone say it in front of him.

Then why did he tell me?

Do you want to hear the consequences? Do you want to see if I am ruthless? Do you want to see if I am easy to bully?

No, it must not be like that. The old man would not educate his grandson like that.

why?

Give rainwater money? Give rainwater money...wait, he's talking about Yi Zhonghai?

Suddenly, He Daqing's eyes lit up and he stared at Xiao Yun, as if asking for confirmation. "Is it Yi Zhonghai?"

Xiao Yun remained silent, with a gentle smile on his face, looking at He Daqing calmly.

This is smarter than I thought.

But that’s all I can remind you of. It’s not your own business, so there’s no point in continuing to control it.

This was what Xiao Yun was thinking. If he hadn't seen He Daqing take out the recipe, he wouldn't have told him about this.

Seeing that Xiao Yun did not respond, He Daqing directly confirmed the matter.

Didn’t the living expenses I sent over the years give it to Zhuzi Yushui?

No, no, Lao Yi is not that kind of person.

But... why did Xiao Yun say all this? Was it to spread rumors? What was he trying to achieve?

At the same time, He Daqing thought of Xiao Yun's proposal to him.

Yes, there is a problem. If the living expenses were given to two people, then why did Xiao Yun suggest giving Yu Shui pocket money?

Doesn't this indirectly prove that Yi Zhonghai did something wrong to him?

For a moment, He Daqing felt his mind became much clearer.

"Xiao Yun, I understand. Don't do anything. Wait for me to come back. I'll get you the recipe now."

After saying that, He Daqing hurriedly left the guest room door.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand." As soon as He Daqing left, Su Ming couldn't help but speak. What about how to do it and I'll handle it? They haven't even talked about the matter yet, why are they handling it?

"You don't understand. I'll explain it to you when the recipe is delivered." Xiao Yun said casually, and then continued reading Journey to the West.

Soon the recipe was delivered. It was a thick cowhide book with some precautions and other things written in a messy manner.

Xiao Yun took a look at it and was very satisfied.

After He Daqing left, Su Ming couldn't help but speak up and ask.

Xiao Yun did not hide anything and told him the whole story that He Daqing ran away with the widow and that Yi Zhonghai embezzled the living expenses of He Yushui and He Yuzhu.

"From this perspective, the rain is really a bit pitiful." Su Ming couldn't help but speak out.

"Pathetic? Not really. At most, we have so-so food and so-so life, but it's acceptable. Look at our compound, how many people have bicycles?"

"Xu Damao, Yan Bugui, and I are the only ones left. Xu Damao's bike belongs to the factory, and Yan Bugui's bike is scrap metal. Apart from these three, the only other bike is He Yushui's."

"Besides, she bought her bicycle earlier than I did, and you still say she is pitiful."

"You might as well say that Yi Zhonghai is a worthless person for plotting against his child, and that Qin Huairu is shameless."

Xiao Yun argued casually, and with just a few words, he opened Su Ming's mind, "So, it seems to be okay."

"Yes, and to be honest, is He Yuzhu a bad person? He's just average. Is he good? He's just average. His biggest flaw is that he's stubborn and has a bad mouth, but at least he doesn't have the intention to harm anyone."

"If I had to choose one person as my neighbor, I would choose him if no one interfered."

"But why did he become so annoying? Yi Zhonghai wanted He Yuzhu to provide for his old age, and he kept blackmailing and tying him up. Qin Huairu was similar. In order to take advantage of He Yuzhu, she, a married woman, took the initiative to pull him. What kind of behavior is this? It's indecent!"

"So, to be more precise, He Yuzhu is being parasitized. Of course, he enjoys it. We should just watch the fun. After all, how to live is up to him."

"We can't control him if he wants to be treated this way. Anyway, I, your man, have already warned him, but he didn't listen and even had an affair with the widow."

"That blind date, Yi Jie, was so nice, but now there's no news. I don't know what's going on."

Xiao Yun said a lot in one breath, as if he was telling a story, and Su Ming was stunned.

My opinion of He Yuzhu changed again. Yes, how you live is up to you. If you are parasitized by others, it is your own fault.

...

That night, after Su Ming fell asleep, Xiao Yun's consciousness quietly entered the space and looked through his recipes.

He doesn't have much talent as a chef, but he has endless ingredients, so the worst that can happen is he can use the ocean tactics.

If you try for a while, you will always find the way.
