Siheyuan: Father Yi Zhonghai and Sister-in-law Lou Xiaoe

"Master Chen, peel all these garlics."

"It's peeled off."

"Master Chen, peel all the green onions, chop the whites, and cut the green onions into shreds."

"Everything is fine."

"Master Chen, those potatoes are not clean. Wash them again and cut them into even pieces!"

"Okay, what else is there to do?"

"Are the steamed buns ready? Lunch is in an hour and the dish hasn't been fried yet. Why are you asking me? Hurry up and prepare the ingredients!"

"You, silly Zhu, don't go too far!"

Since arriving in the morning, Master Chen has been ordered by Sha Zhu to do all kinds of trivial things.

Finally I couldn't bear it anymore.

"What? Have you forgotten that you asked me to do these things before?"

"you will not?"

Sha Zhu's words choked Master Chen.

There's nothing he can do. He just wanted to play tricks on Sha Zhu after he came to power because he was not convinced by him.

"From now on, every day when I come here, I will take the initiative to do these things."

"Don't wait for my orders."

Sha Zhu looked at Master Chen and gave instructions.

"He Yuzhu, don't go too far."

"I didn't ask you to do so much before."

Master Chen felt insulted.

"If you are capable, you should do more."

"If someone wants to help him, he should be prepared to go to the workshop for training."

"I have a way to get back to the position of chef, and naturally I also have a way to get you out of the kitchen."

No one doubted what Sha Zhu said.

Originally everyone thought that since Sha Zhu had made such a serious mistake and had been arrested and imprisoned, there was no way he could be reused.

Unexpectedly, it really happened.

It seems that what Ma Hua said before was correct.

Yi Zhonghai is already an eighth-level fitter. He has always protected Sha Zhu in the past, and he is even more so now. The leaders will also give him face.

Sha Zhu sat on a chair holding a teacup, watching everyone busy in front of the stove, and the feeling of the old days finally came back.

This kitchen is my own territory.

When it was time to get off work, Yi Bufan still stood diligently at the gate, watching every worker leaving with other members of the security department.

Whenever I see a bag that is bulging or has uneven pockets, I will come forward to check.

The purpose is simple.

That is to protect the safety of national property.

"Bufan, Master Yi seems to smile every time he sees you. He has a good relationship with you."

Xiao Wu said in Yi Bufan's ear with a smile.

"That's right. We have the ability to get along well with everyone."

When Yi Bufan met the neighbors in the courtyard, they nodded in response.

"Silly Zhu started carrying a lunch box again today."

"Should we stop it?"

Just when most people had left, Sha Zhu came out carrying a net bag.

"It's just a lunch box, it's not interesting."

Yi Bufan glanced at it and ignored it.

When Shazhu was demoted to a kitchen helper, he was quiet for a while.

"Aren't you from the same courtyard?"

"Besides, I heard that Sha Zhu has a very good relationship with Master Yi."

Xiao Wu just mentioned it casually, but he didn't expect Yi Bufan to take it seriously.

"We are from the security department. How can we bow to evil forces? If even our brothers don't give us face, what's the point of being in the same courtyard?"

"Your awareness needs to be improved!"

Yi Bufan looked at Xiao Wu.

"That's right, Comrade Yi Bufan is right."

"It just so happens that Lao Liao is about to retire. You can take over Lao Liao's job and serve as the deputy captain!"

Section Chief Leng suddenly appeared behind the two of them, and scared Xiao Wu.

"Ah, he's now the vice-captain? Isn't that a joke?"

Xiao Wu muttered to himself, after all, there were many people in the security department who had more seniority than Yi Bufan.

Even he is more qualified than Yi Bufan to be the deputy captain.

"Why, when did my words become a joke?!"

Section Chief Leng glared at Xiao Wu.

"No, no, it was a slip of the tongue. Comrade Yi Bufan is indeed qualified for this position!"

Xiao Wu quickly changed his words.

"Chief Leng, I've only been here for a few months. Isn't it too fast to convince others?"

Yi Bufan naturally has to be humble.

"You really have been here for too short a time, otherwise I would have made you the captain directly."

"As for the position, it is supposed to be held by the capable. You are worthy of it."

Section Chief Leng has received some instructions from his superiors. Yi Bufan is not an ordinary person.

He is the descendant of a martyr and has made great contributions.

What are you waiting for if not promotion!

"Thank you very much, Chief Leng. I will do my best!"

Yi Bufan didn't waste any words.

"Well, go home early after get off work."

Section Chief Leng patted Yi Bufan on the shoulder.

Becoming the vice-captain naturally has some benefits.

Just like leaving get off work too late, it doesn’t have to happen every day.

......

State-owned hotel.

"Master Chen, I know everything about you. This idiot Zhu is a piece of shit!"

"In our yard, he always bullies others because he relies on his protection."

Xu Damao poured the wine for Master Chen.

"Who says it's not true? I'm ten years older than him. He orders me around like he's his grandson."

"I am at least an eighth-level chef, just like him."

"Isn't it that he cooks dishes that the leader likes?"

"But most of the dishes in this cafeteria are fried in big pots. What's the difference?"

Master Chen felt aggrieved.

There is indeed not much difference between this stir-fried dish.

Shazhu is only somewhat accomplished in cooking dishes.

Suitable for opening a restaurant.

"I think that Chef Chen's dishes are delicious."

"It's much more delicious than Shazhu's."

Xu Damao's ability to flatter was so good that even his superiors had to admire him, not to mention the illiterate Master Chen who was in his forties.

"Although I can't say it's better than Sha Zhu's cooking, but it's definitely not worse than his cooking."

"But now, he is really going too far."

When Master Chen got excited, he slapped the table a few times.

"You can't let him be so arrogant, otherwise you might not be able to stay in the kitchen anymore!"

Xu Damao felt that the situation was about right and started to fan the flames.

Master Chen's family of six depends on the salary he earns from this job to support them.

Working in the kitchen is not only easier than working in a workshop and you can get a good salary, but you can also solve your own food problem.

In this way, the meals for a family of six become the meals for a family of five.

"Yes, but what can I do?"

Master Chen sighed and could only bear it.

"Yes, how can there be no solution?!"

Xu Damao's words immediately attracted Master Chen's attention.

"any solution?"

As long as it can help him escape the fate of being bullied by Sha Zhu, Master Chen is naturally looking forward to it.

"Think about it, if Sha Zhu just returned to the position of chef and the dish had problems and was not tasty, whose responsibility would it be?"

Xu Damao's words made Master Chen's eyes light up.
