Siheyuan's opening rejection of the elderly care group

"The meal is ready, Damao and the three of you can eat together," Li Xiuzhi called.

"Let's go, Damao, we don't have to be so formal," He Yuzhu said when he heard Li Xiuzhi's call.

Looking at the sweaty Xu Damao, he said that judging from Xu Damao's condition, he would probably just have a bite to eat when he got home, so he welcomed Li Xiuzhi's invitation to Xu Damao and his family to have dinner here.

After all, he and Xu Damao hadn't eaten together for a while.

"Zhu Zi, this is so inappropriate. It's rude to come to you right before dinner," Xu Damao quickly refused.

But his son had already been given a full bowl of rice by Li Xiuzhi, and he was already gnawing on a big chicken drumstick.

Wu Cuiling watched Xu Aiguo stomping his feet in anger.

"This is a bit fake. We brothers still have to do this." He Yuzhu pulled Xu Damao to the table, and Li Xiuzhi helped Wu Cuiling sit on the chair.

"Uncle, the food you cook is so delicious," Xu Aiguo, who was gnawing on a chicken leg nearby, suddenly said, making He Yuzhu laugh.

"Good boy, if it tastes good, eat more. If your parents don't have time to cook, just come to my place to eat," He Yuzhu touched Xu Aiguo's hair and said happily.

"Aiguo, I have a lot of snacks here, do you want to eat some?" Li Yue next to him also started teasing the child.

"I have to finish my meal before eating snacks, otherwise my dad will beat me." Although Xu Aiguo wanted to eat snacks, he looked at Xu Damao next to him and decided to eat his meal first.

"Da Mao, that's great, you have good education," He Yuzhu gave Xu Damao a thumbs up after seeing it.

"How could I have that ability? Cuiling asked me to do this. Only when a couple plays the good cop and the bad cop respectively can they educate their children well," Xu Damao complimented his wife.

"Okay, stop showing affection here, come on everyone, pick up your chopsticks," He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao with contempt and invited everyone to start eating, but he didn't expect that he treated Li Xiuzhi in the same way.

"By the way, Zhuzi, why didn't I see Jianye and his wife?" Halfway through, Xu Damao suddenly remembered that he didn't see Li Xiuzhi's nephew and niece-in-law.

"The young couple went to visit their father-in-law and mother-in-law," He Yuzhu said as he raised his glass and clinked it with Xu Damao.

"You have a really good taste. You fell in love with Xiuzhi at first sight. After you brought her back, she took care of your home and gave birth to a son and a daughter for you."

"Now you have discovered that Qin Huairu's cousin is different from Qin Huairu, and you told her to Li Jianye. The young couple is also following the lead of the husband and wife. I admire you very much," said Xu Damao after drinking a full glass of wine.

"Who made us lucky?"

"By the way, Damao, I happen to have something to ask you," He Yuzhu asked while toasting with Xu Damao.

"Tell me what it is. As long as I can do it, I will never refuse." Xu Damao was already a little drunk at this time.

"The steel rolling mill has a subordinate unit called the machine repair plant, you know?" He Yuzhu asked.

"I know, I even showed them movies," Xu Damao nodded.

"You know, I am a section chief now after all. It is indeed inconvenient for me to go to the kitchen to cook all the time, so Director Li asked me to find another cook," He Yuzhu said as he poured another glass of wine for Xu Damao.

"I've wanted to tell you for a long time, it's really not right for a purchasing chief to go into the kitchen to cook often. And that's not the way to flatter Li Huaide," Xu Damao patted He Yuzhu's shoulder with a pair of drunken eyes.

"Go to hell, that's my job, how did it become flattery?" He Yuzhu said with disgust, taking away Xu Damao's hand on his shoulder.

"Then why don't you let Ma Hua go to the automobile factory? If he goes there, wouldn't you be liberated?" Xu Damao asked.

"The canteen of the steel rolling mill will collapse, and your Director Nie will have to fight to the death with Li Huaide," He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao as if he were a fool.

"That's right. Now the only decent chef in the steel mill is Ma Hua. By the way, what does that have to do with the machine repair shop in the steel mill?" Xu Damao asked belatedly.

"Didn't I hear that they have a descendant of the imperial chef named Nan Yi? I want to recruit him to the car factory. Tomorrow I would like to ask you to introduce him to me. After all, I don't know him," He Yuzhu stated his purpose.

"I was wondering why you thought of inviting me to drink. So you were waiting for me here. No problem. I've met Nan Yi a few times before. Although his cooking skills are still a little different from yours, they're not much different. He's just a little aloof."

"It's because we have a good relationship now. If I had known Nan Yi a few years ago, I would have brought him to the steel mill to fill your shoes," said the drunk Xu Damao.

"Then thank you, thank you for letting me go," He Yuzhu said to the drunk Xu Damao.

Another half an hour passed before everyone finished their dinner. He Yuzhu supported Xu Damao and sent the family of three back home.

"Brother Zhuzi, thank you so much for disturbing you at your home today," He Yuzhu put Xu Damao on the bed, and Wu Cuiling thanked him while covering him with a quilt.

"We are brothers, you are being too formal. It's getting late, I will go back first."

"Aiguo, when you have time, come to our room and play with your Aunt Yueliang. She has a lot of delicious food." Before leaving, He Yuzhu also said hello to Xu Damao's son.

"I know, sir. Goodbye," Xu Aiguo waved his hand and He Yuzhu turned and left.

"Mom, can I go play with Aunt Yueyue? Her big cat is so beautiful. We can't go out to play in the yard." Xu Aiguo turned and looked at his mother.

"Okay, as long as you don't leave this yard, don't eat other people's food casually, and be polite," Wu Cuiling nodded.

After all, she was pregnant again, and she was afraid that Xu Aiguo would be dishonest and it would be troublesome for her if he met her.

Now that someone was willing to take her son to play in the yard, how could Wu Cuiling refuse?

the next day,

He Yuzhu had something else and didn't go to work for the time being.

"Zhu Zi is gone. Maybe we can get some lunch at the machine repair shop now," Xu Damao shouted outside the house.

"I'm here. I've been waiting for you for a long time. You just came out and you only know how to eat," He Yuzhu lifted the door curtain and came out.

"I just woke up from drinking too much last night," Xu Damao said a little embarrassedly.

"You have such a low alcohol tolerance, even a little bit would be too much," He Yuzhu scolded Xu Damao while pushing his bicycle out.

"Enough, you're more nagging than my wife, let's go quickly," Xu Damao pushed his bicycle to the outside of the courtyard, got on the bicycle and rode away.

"Wait for me," He Yuzhu hurriedly caught up on his bike, and the two of them chased each other towards the machine repair shop.

On the outskirts of Sijiu City, there is a slightly old factory under a tall willow tree. The sign at the door reads "Machine Repair Branch of Red Star Steel Rolling Mill". In the communication room in front of the factory, an old man is reading a newspaper, but his eyes occasionally look up and glance at the door.
