Siheyuan's opening rejection of the elderly care group

The steel mill is a large factory with more than 10,000 employees, and is one of the best in the city.

It was around nine o'clock when He Yuzhu arrived at the factory gate, greeted the guard, and walked inside. After entering the kitchen, Ma Hua noticed him first and said, "Master He, you're here." He poured him a cup of tea. He Yuzhu nodded to him.

I haven't accepted him as my apprentice yet, I'm still observing him, but I'm not the same fool as before, I'm very confident about Ma Hua, I'm going to accept him as my apprentice and teach him seriously.

I still maintain my previous purpose, which is to just cook and only know how to cook. I don't participate in leadership struggles or join any small groups.

The top brass of the steel mill were fighting overtly and covertly, so who would give me face if I cooked delicious food? After all, I was just a chef, and I couldn't get involved in other interests, and my own class movement wouldn't involve me.

He Yuzhu decided to change himself from today. After cooking, he would go to the front to help. No matter who it was, he would treat everyone equally without competing over who had the spoon.

"Everyone stop for a moment, I have something to tell you," He Yuzhu called out.

"From today on, I will be the head chef of the cafeteria. Please bear with me if I have let you down in the past. I will work hard to correct my mistakes in the future."

As he was drinking a pack of cigarettes and a handful of candy, he said, "These are my token of appreciation. From now on, please stop calling me Shazhu. If you respect me, call me Zhu. If you don't, just call me by my name. If anyone calls me Shazhu, I will get angry."

Everyone in the cafeteria looked at each other and said in unison, "From now on, we will call you Master He."

“One thing is, don’t shake the spoon when serving food. It’s not easy for everyone. From now on, you can share the leftovers from the cafeteria. I won’t take any. Finally, I will start accepting Ma Hua as my apprentice today. You all can be a witness,” He Yuzhu said and found a chair to sit down.

"Ma Hua, hurry up and serve tea. You made Master He wait for you," Liu Lan said, pushing Ma Hua who was standing aside in a daze.

Ma Hua quickly brought the tea and said, "Master, please have some tea," then bent down, kowtowed and offered the tea.

"Okay, from today on you are my apprentice. I will teach you seriously and you must learn seriously, otherwise don't blame me for being rude," He Yuzhu said to Ma Hua.

"Okay, everyone, let's get busy. Ma Hua, please help me prepare the dishes," He Yuzhu arranged.

As he was talking, Director Qian of the cafeteria came over and told He Yuzhu that the cafeteria would entertain everyone at noon, but Chef Liu had taken a leave of absence and knowing that He Yuzhu was a good cook, he asked He Yuzhu to hurry up and prepare.

"Director, where are they from? How many dishes do you want to cook?" He Yuzhu asked.

Director Qian glanced at He Yuzhu and thought to himself that this boy was so easy to talk to today.

"Director, I was ignorant before. I think it's a good idea to forgive the mistakes of a small person. If I have offended you, please bear with me," He Yuzhu knew what Director Qian was thinking at a glance.

"I won't bother with you. How many people have you offended with your big mouth in the past?" Director Qian said, "The people who came are from Guangdong Province, and some are from southern Hunan. There are six people in total, so you should just cook eight dishes."

"Okay, please go ahead," He Yuzhu agreed.

Let Ma Hua go to the canteen to get the ingredients, and then prepare them together with Liu Lan, and then he will think about what dish to cook.

In Guangdong province, we eat boiled chicken and steamed spareribs with taro. For Hunan cuisine, we eat stir-fried pork with chili and fish head with chopped pepper. You just need to cook those four dishes as you like. After drawing up the menu, let Ma Hua go to the small warehouse and get the dishes.

He Yuzhu poured himself another cup of tea, sat on the chair next to him and drank it with peace of mind. After drinking the tea, he looked around to see if there was anything that needed to be rectified and if there was anything that needed attention in terms of hygiene, so that he had a clear idea of ​​what was going on.

After Ma Hua got the ingredients, he washed all the vegetables he could. At around 11:, He Yuzhu started to prepare today's reception dinner.

As the guests arrived, He Yuzhu's spatula flew up and down. One dish after another was cooked with great color, aroma and taste, and all were arranged on plates. Liu Lan, who was drooling at the smell, started to serve the dishes.

As soon as the dishes were served, Director Lu from Guangdong Province was stunned when he saw the boiled chicken and steamed spareribs with taro. "Hey, Lao Li, your factory can also make our Cantonese cuisine. How does it taste? It's not authentic. I won't do it."

"Don't worry, Director Lu. We are old friends. How could I lie to you? Our chef is very skilled and we have Hunan cuisine. Director Ma, you can try it and see if his food is authentic," Li Huaide said to the two directors.

Director Lu picked up a piece of chicken and tasted it. After a moment, he picked up another piece and said, "It's even more authentic than what we make in our hometown."

Director Ma also said, "This Hunan cuisine is quite authentic. I haven't tasted the flavor of my hometown for a long time since I came to Beijing. Director Li, can you let us meet the chef?"

"No problem, let's enjoy it slowly. I'll ask Director Qian to call him," Li Huaide nodded in agreement.

After a while, He Yuzhu was called over and asked, "Do you have any requirements for the dishes?"

Director Ma said, "I didn't expect such a young chef to have such great skills. Are you interested in working in our meat processing plant? I can promote you to a level 6 chef. Besides, the benefits and treatment in our meat processing plant are also good."

"You can also come to our textile factory. You are not married yet, right? There are many female workers in the textile factory. We can also give you a level 6 chef," Director Lu said hurriedly.

Li Huaide saw that something was wrong. Why did he take my people away just to have a meal? He said, "Two factory managers, you can't do this. We can't just take the pot away when we have a meal."

He Yuzhu quickly said, "Dear leaders, I am just a chef. Thank you for your appreciation, but the steel mill has been very kind to me. I will follow Director Li's arrangements."

His words made Li Huaide feel proud, and he looked at He Yuzhu with even higher regard.

After hearing what He Yuzhu said, the three of them laughed and said that He Yuzhu was very cunning, so they let him go back.

He Yuzhu didn't know that he was about to get the benefit. He came to the cafeteria and saw Ma Hua practicing flipping the spoon. He laughed and scolded him, saying, "You want to run before you even learn to walk."

When you have practiced cutting vegetables to the same level as me, I will teach you how to cook. Actually, I usually give Ma Hua a lot of advice, but Ma Hua is stupid and learns slowly, but he is a very good person.

In the afternoon, after the canteen was cleaned up after dinner, He Yuzhu asked everyone to tidy up the canteen so that at least people could eat with peace of mind.

Before the end of the get off work day, He Yuzhu called Liu Lan aside and said to her: "I remember you have a relative in the countryside, right? Not far from here, I want to buy some rapeseed and grain seeds, can you help me ask them if they have any?" Then he took out 20 yuan and handed it to Liu Lan.

Liu Lan took one look and said, "Zhu Zi, what do you want to do? Why do you want rapeseed?"

"It's okay, just ask for me. I want to grow some myself," said He Yuzhu.

"It won't cost so much money," Liu Lan said.

He Yuzhu said nonchalantly, "I've made you work for nothing. The extra money can be considered as errand fee."

"I'll go check it out for you this afternoon and bring it to you tomorrow morning," Liu Lan said enthusiastically when she heard that there was still her money inside.

After He Yuzhu and Liu Lan gave their instructions, he packed up his lunch boxes at around four o'clock and left work.

I went to the market first, bought a chicken, some potatoes, and green peppers, and decided to make a simple braised chicken for my sister today.

He knew clearly that natural disasters would become more and more serious, so he had to hurry up and plant things in the space to ensure that the brother and sister would not starve and would have good food. Now there were only medicinal herbs and seasonings in it, which was far from enough.

He Yuzhu walked while thinking, and walked towards the bustling courtyard without stopping.
