Siheyuan: Learning to be the sixth

Old Master Sun looked at the modest He Yuzhu. This young man was really outstanding. Fortunately, his son-in-law was also good. It was a good opportunity for him to make friends with the person in front of him.

After greeting He Yuzhu, Grandpa Sun looked around at everyone in the room. Although he didn't like forming cliques or engaging in petty factionalism, how could he not be nostalgic when he got old?

Looking at the old comrades who either accompanied him in his youth or the young people he promoted, the old man was very moved and he rarely said a soft word in his life.

"I, the old man, have made everyone worried."

"Zhu Zi, please take some time off. I want to get together with everyone. This may be the most people we have ever met. I don't know if there will be another chance in the future."

He Yuzhu naturally accepted the old man's request.

"Old man, just wait and see~"

Feng Jiafeng, Sun Ruxue and the Sun family's daughters-in-law didn't dare to be arrogant. Whether they were pretending or putting on a show, they all smiled and said, "Then let's go to the kitchen to help Master He."

Instead, Lou Xiao'e was pulled away by the visiting female relatives to chat.

Arriving at the kitchen, He Yuzhu looked at the group of people staring at each other in the back, feeling helpless.

"My sisters-in-law, Brother Feng, just help me pick the vegetables and wash them, and we'll be done."

Several people breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this. The truth was that they knew nothing about kitchen matters.

Fortunately, several people were able to distinguish coriander, celery and leeks, which made He Yuzhu, who was busy and secretly observing from time to time, breathe a sigh of relief.

"Everyone, we have almost finished cleaning up. You can go and get busy. We will need you to entertain people ahead~"

A few people also knew that He Yuzhu was giving them a way out, so they tactfully said, "Master He, you have worked hard," and then stepped back.

Only Feng Jiafeng did not leave.

"Brother Feng, go and get busy. You are not needed here."

"Zhu Zi, I won't make much difference if you have me in front. I'll stay here to talk to you. If you need any ingredients and they're not in the kitchen, I can help you find them."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu said happily: "Brother Feng, I won't be polite then."

In fact, both of them understand that a son-in-law can be the same as a son. Wouldn't it be better for him to be sensible and find a quiet place to stay?

Old Master Sun saw that his two sons were only concerned with taking care of the people in front of them. None of them even bothered to go to the kitchen to take a look. They were all short-sighted people who only cared about the relationship in front of them. How come they didn't understand that although the three northeastern provinces were good, they were still remote from Yu after all?

Feng Jiafeng suddenly said this while watching He Yuzhu cooking.

"Zhu Zi, what do you think about me trying to get out of the three northeastern provinces?"

"Brother Feng, I only know that if you stay in this place, you will be a deputy minister at best. After all, the higher-ups don't allow feudal lords to rule their own kingdoms."

This sentence awakened the dreamer. They were all department-level cadres. Was it true that the vision of the people in Beijing was higher than his?

"Brother Feng, this is just my opinion. After all, you are the one who made the decision. You should discuss it with your sister-in-law first. Let's serve the dishes first."

The sudden turn startled Feng Jiafeng for a moment.

"Zhu Zi, luckily my back is fine, otherwise I would have been killed by you."

I know that Feng Jiafeng's words are a double entendre. It seems that he got beaten up a lot the night before yesterday. It may be related to the waist. You can guess.

Seeing Feng Jiafeng bring out two more plates of nine-turn large intestines, everyone was drooling with greed and didn't care whether they were eating lunch or dinner. Whatever they could eat was good food.

They cleared the table together, with the men at one table and the women at another, and started eating.

Fortunately, Feng Jiafeng and his wife prepared a lot of ingredients, otherwise there might not be enough to eat.

He Yuzhu originally just wanted to cook a meal for the old man just for the sake of Feng Jiafeng and his wife, but he didn't expect that the old man gave He Yuzhu a big surprise.

"Kanjiang, my friend, one of you is in Jilin Province and the other is in Liao Province. Zhuzi has some business and needs your help. I, Old Sun, beg you for help."

They are all from the older generation, so naturally they won't just focus on the present. Rather than saying that he is doing He Yuzhu a favor, it is better to say that the two families can establish a connection. With the favor, they can visit each other more often in the future.

As a time traveler, He Yuzhu knew very well that relationships did not need to expire, so after cooking, he had a few drinks with Mr. Jiang and Mr. Tie.

During the meal, the old men even joked about why He Yuzhu didn't ask them how they got together.

"My dear old men, I have only one good thing, which is that I am not very curious. Otherwise, how could I survive in the capital city with so many secrets?"

He Yuzhu's answer made the old men very satisfied. In fact, He Yuzhu knew clearly in his mind that the reason so many veterans were gathered together was either because something happened in the north or something was discovered in the mountains and forests. It had nothing to do with him, so he might as well be confused for a while.

After leaving Grandpa Sun's house, He Yuzhu got Jiang Laotie's phone number and address, and was also very sad. It felt really good to ask someone for help, as this was all money.

Just when He Yuzhu was still feeling happy that things were going so smoothly, the Wei warships stationed in the capital were cursing.

"Damn it, they are just a bunch of people who are greedy for profit and opportunistic. They have no integrity at all."

Meng Xuhui, who was standing by, also didn't expect that people could be so corrupt. The contract had clearly not expired, but when he sent people to get the goods, they said there was none, while others who offered a higher price had them.

"Brother Wei, how about we wait until Mr. He comes back to discuss this matter?"

"Old Meng, we can't rely on Zhuzi for everything. How about you go to Shandong Province? At worst, there's Jiangsu Province. It's a textile province. I don't believe that I can't slaughter a hairy pig without Zhang the Butcher."

"Okay, Brother Wei, I'll go book a ticket and leave right away."

……

Even though they were reluctant to part, He Yuzhu eventually found out what happened in the capital, and the trip to Jilin and Liaoning provinces that had been scheduled had to be shelved.

But for the sake of cooperation between both parties, Li Jiahao volunteered.

"Brother Zhuzi, if I go to Old Jiang Tie's place, it will be considered as an equal status..."

Not to mention, Li Jiahao, who jumped out of the academic ivory tower, also knows how to take advantage of your own advantages. There is no way to overcome the social relationships in this society. What matters is equality of status.

So He Yuzhu gave some instructions on the details of the negotiations and prepared to return.

Before leaving, Mr. Sun also came.

He also gave Xu Damao a message: "Da Mao, you must remember that your image must come before your ability, otherwise your ability will be easily underestimated. Respect the clothes first and then the person; respect the skin first and then the soul."

"Zhu Zi, I won't say anything about you, because sometimes I think you are more insightful than me. If you have the chance, take your brother Feng with you."
