For the entire afternoon, the entire courtyard was filled with a happy atmosphere, and the rich aroma of meat could be smelled at dinner time in almost every family.

Even the usually stingy Third Master cooked half a pound of wild boar meat for dinner, which was unusual.

In the backyard, He Yuzhu was cooking delicious food. Soon, the whole yard was filled with extremely tempting aroma.

"Zhu Zi's cooking skills are really outstanding. At the factory dinner parties, almost every meal is eaten up by everyone."

Yi Zhonghai accompanied the deaf old lady and commented on He Yuzhu who was busy.

"It smells so good! My eldest grandson's cooking skills are impeccable." said the old lady with a smile.

Just as He Yuzhu finished the last dish, he looked up and found Lou Xiao'e staring at him.

He suddenly remembered that Lou Xiao'e had not cooked any food the entire afternoon. He guessed that she didn't know how to cook and probably wanted to wait for Xu Damao to come home before cooking.

But at this time, if Xu Damao wanted to come, he should have returned long ago.

So he suggested to Lou Xiaoe in a friendly way: "You didn't cook today, why don't you come and eat with us? There are so many dishes that we can't finish them all."

As soon as he finished speaking, the deaf old lady was standing by the door. She also smiled and said, "Ezi, come over and eat with us. Zhuzi has prepared a table of dishes!"

"Yes, yes, come and try Zhuzi's cooking, it must be delicious." The old man and the aunt also echoed.

Seeing everyone's enthusiastic invitation, Lou Xiao'e no longer refused.

On the table, a portion of attractively colored cured pig's head was cut into large pieces, along with a large bowl of carrot-braised pork ribs, natural green pepper shredded pork, fragrant braised pork knuckle, sour sauerkraut fish, a bowl of stir-fried Chinese cabbage and a dish of spicy and sour shredded potatoes. Every dish looked extremely delicious.

Five people sat around a table. He Yuzhu looked around and found that there was no wine. He quickly explained to everyone: "Oh, I was ready and realized that I forgot to drink wine. I'll go get a bottle.

I only have one bottle of Wuliangye left that I bought a few days ago. "

He was about to stand up and leave when Lou Xiao'e took out a bottle of 1962 Moutai from beside her feet and asked with a smile, "Would you like to try this bottle of mine? I still have some at home. If it's not enough, you can get more."

"Moutai! It's really good wine. Since Xiao'e brought it, why don't we try it?"

He Yuzhu took the Moutai, looked at it in his hand for a moment, and then made some suggestions to the old man.

"No problem, just drink this, let's eat first."

While the old man and He Yuzhu were enjoying the wine, the other three started their meal.

Because the rice that He Yuzhu brought back matched the white flour that the deaf old lady brought back, there were both rice and white flour steamed buns.

Everyone enjoyed the meal very much, and the charm of He Yuzhu's dishes made everyone surrender.

The meal lasted for more than two hours, and the bottle of Moutai that He Yuzhu and the old man drank together was not spared.

After eating and drinking, Lou Xiao'e and the aunt cleaned up the table.

Looking at the remaining dishes, the aunt asked He Yuzhu: "Zhuzi, there are so many leftovers from such delicious food. Can we let Lou Xiaoe take some home?"

Upon hearing this, Lou Xiao'e looked at He Yuzhu with a slightly nervous expression. She was well aware of the rift between her husband and him and was afraid that he would say something embarrassing.

“Just take whatever you like, it’s nothing to just eat something.

By the way, there is still half a piece of uncut pork head in the big pot. If Xiao'e likes it, feel free to cut some and take it back." He Yuzhu said generously with a smile on his face.

Hearing this, Lou Xiao'e felt relieved. She said happily: "I will cut some later. Your dishes are really delicious, much better than what I have eaten before."

"Hey, to be honest, when it comes to cooking skills in the whole city, even those old chefs who specialize in serving state banquets dare not say that they can beat me 100%." ​​After drinking a little wine, He Yuzhu was not fussy about details and did not say anything arrogant.

After he said this, everyone around him felt that it was not groundless. Even Lou Xiao'e, who was quite experienced, acquiesced to this and did not refute his point of view. "Not bad, not bad. Your cooking skills are indeed worthy of such a statement."

Seeing that Lou Xiao'e rarely argued with He Yuzhu, everyone laughed.

After cleaning up the table, an old lady suggested to He Yuzhu: "Zhuzi, I will help take care of breakfast and lunch every day. If you come home early in the evening, come and make some delicious food for our old lady. If you come home late, then leave everything to me. How do you think?"

"No problem, as long as the old lady can eat comfortably." He Yuzhu agreed readily.

"It's okay. The old lady won't starve." The deaf old lady agreed with a smile.

The three of them sat together for a while, and as it got dark, they dispersed.

After returning home, He Yuzhu took a comfortable hot bath in his own space, and then fell into a deep sleep feeling refreshed.

As soon as he lay down, the sheriff immediately jumped onto the bed and lay down beside He Yuzhu's pillow. After meowing, he rubbed against his owner before lying down quietly and falling asleep.

Early the next morning, He Yuzhu washed up, had a quick breakfast, and prepared to go to work.

Without having to prepare breakfast for his grandmother, he seemed more relaxed.

He had to go find the canteen director that day. After all, after more than twenty hours, the large amount of fish stored in the space, the 100,000 kilograms, might not be comparable to yesterday's amount.

After completing his usual check-in routine, he fed all the wild animals that needed to be looked after, consuming a lot of the reserves in the warehouse.

After packing up, he walked out.

As soon as I went out, Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru came towards me.

After seeing He Yuzhu, Qin Huairu couldn't wait to say, "Zhuzi, my sister Jingru has thought about it for a long time and still thinks you are good. How about trying to get along with each other?"

Qin Jingru greeted him warmly: "Brother He."

After watching the meat distribution scene yesterday, Qin Jingru felt that He Yuzhu was a generous person. He was not vague about distributing hundreds or thousands of kilograms of pork, which showed that he had a good economic condition.

Moreover, after Qin Huairu's explanation, she realized that Xu Damao's real intention in pursuing her was just to take advantage of her.

Seeing He Yuzhu again at this moment, Qin Jingru's smile became even more sincere.

Looking at Qin Jingru's graceful figure and gentle face, He Yuzhu also had a good impression of her.

Seeing He Yuzhu remained silent, Qin Huairu looked up at the sky. Seeing that it was still early, she smiled and said, "Why don't you accompany Jingru into the house to chat? We have just started work."

Then, Qin Jingru asked clearly, "Brother He, can you chat with me?"

Seeing this, He Yuzhu nodded in agreement: "Okay, we were in a hurry last time and didn't talk much.

Then come in and chat for a while."

Afterwards, Qin Huairu made an excuse to prepare breakfast for her family and left He Yuzhu's room.

In the room, He Yuzhu neatly placed the fried peanuts, melon seeds and White Rabbit candies that he had prepared in advance next to the brazier and said with a smile, "Miss Jingru, try the melon seeds."

"Brother He, just call me Jingru."

Qin Jingru said this and took a White Rabbit milk candy and put it in her mouth.

"Well, Jingru, have you thought about it seriously before coming here this time?"

He Yuzhu asked with a smile, without mentioning Xu Damao or asking about his whereabouts.

However, although Qin Jingru did not mention it, she took the initiative to speak: "Brother He, I already liked you last time, but I was deceived by Xu Damao.

He treated me to a meal, bought me a suit, and took me to a movie, but nothing happened between us.

He later gave me money to go home, and it wasn’t until my sister came to the countryside to look for me that I realized I had been cheated.”

“I knew my actions might not be appropriate, but I never tried to hide it.

If you think I'm okay, how about we try dating?"

Qin Jingru spoke with some trepidation.

Seeing Qin Jingru's awkward look, He Yuzhu knew that she was not lying, he nodded and smiled, "You can speak these things honestly, which shows that you are kind by nature.

When you come to the city from the countryside, you will inevitably be attracted by things from the outside world, which is normal.

Although I don't get along with Xu Damao, to be honest, it's not that I'm dissatisfied with him, but that he is essentially a villain and is not suitable to be a good person.

He only ruined our blind date because he coveted you and wanted to get back at me.

As to whether he can marry you, I'm not sure.

First of all, Lou Xiao'e is by his side, and with the power of the Lou family, he will not divorce easily.

Secondly, I will tell you a secret, you must not reveal it.

"Brother He, please tell me and I won't tell anyone else." Qin Jingru promised.

"Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e have been married for many years, but they have no children.

Do you know this? "

He Yuzhu asked in a low voice.

"Yes, Xu Damao told me. He said Lou Xiao'e is infertile. She is an 'old hen' who cannot give birth to offspring, just like the old ladies in the courtyard." Qin Jingru replied.

"Oh, this guy really doesn't know his place." He Yuzhu smiled bitterly, thinking that this guy didn't care about his image at all.

When we talk about infertile old ladies, it is possible that they suffered from gynecological diseases when they were young.

Lou Xiao'e is in good health, so how could she be infertile like those middle-aged women?

Noticing He Yuzhu's subtle expression, Qin Jingru suddenly realized: "Could Xu Damao have the same problem?"

“You guessed right.

This guy started behaving ridiculously when he was a teenager. After he became a projectionist, he became even more outrageous when he went to the countryside to show movies to people.

If Lou Xiao'e was really infertile, why didn't he get pregnant when he had affairs with other people? It was obvious that the problem was with him.

Let’s not talk about him. You know my own conditions. As long as you are willing, we can try to get along with each other.

If we get along well, we can get the marriage certificate after the new year."

"Well, okay." Qin Jingru's cheeks turned red when she heard this.

Although she has a rural household registration, in the eyes of him, a time traveler from the future, this is not important.

Qin Jingru is apparently a high school graduate and her cultural level is similar to his.

Besides, marriage requires virtue. One should choose a wife based on her morals and a concubine based on her appearance. At least for now, Qin Jingru is to his liking.

In the original novel, after Qin Jingru followed Xu Damao, no matter whether he was right or wrong, even if Xu Damao behaved inappropriately, she had the courage to raise her knife to help.

This kind of tenacious character is highly appreciated by He Yuzhu.

Perhaps he was immersed in the hustle and bustle of the city in his previous life, so he had never met such a person. Until he traveled through time, he had never married.
