Siheyuan: Get god-level cooking skills at the beginning

"I have asked my friends and they have no problem with it, but he said he will not do it again in the short term because the risk is too great." He Yuzhu replied after thinking for a while.

His reason was that large-scale transactions could easily lead to problems, and since he was handling them personally, he would be hard to escape if he encountered someone with ulterior motives seeking revenge.

In addition, Deputy Director Li is not a good person. It is very risky to cooperate with him and it is easy to be ambushed.

In the original novel, Deputy Director Li became impatient for quick results after gaining power, and his attitude was clearly too political.

For He Yuzhu, whether before or now, he has no intention of getting involved in political affairs.

After listening to He Yuzhu's explanation, Deputy Director Li was not surprised. He thought it was normal as he made a lot of money just by selling fish.

If it were Deputy Director Li himself, there might also be a temporary pause.

"It doesn't matter, Master He, the important thing is that we can secure the pork supply this time.

I have something else to talk to you about. I think you are very talented and I want to promote you and help you move up to a higher level.

But as soon as I opened my mouth, Director Yang rejected my proposal. "Here, he stopped to observe He Yuzhu's reaction.

However, to the disappointment of Deputy Director Li, He Yuzhu did not seem depressed. He just smiled and said, "Thank you for thinking highly of me. Actually, I don't have too many ambitions. I just want to live a simple life and enjoy my wife and children.

I don’t really care about the salary. The current good conditions are enough to support me to take care of my family. That’s enough.”

"Hahaha, Master He, your mental age seems to be older than your actual age.

As a man, holding a high position of power, it is the true nature of a man to be able to make decisions. "Deputy Director Li laughed loudly.

"You're right, that's why you're in that position, right? But to tell you the truth, I'm an easygoing person, but I also love to stir up trouble. I've probably gotten under everyone's skin in the kitchen.

My personality won’t last long, so I don’t want to go through all that trouble.”

Nowadays, I prefer to stay in the kitchen, cook and drink tea peacefully. If I get married and have children in the future, I will go home every day and cook a table of hot meals for my wife and children. That kind of life is what I really pursue.

Director Li, please don’t laugh. This is my personality. I have no ambition. If others don’t come to pick a fight, I’m too lazy to interfere with their way of life,” He Yuzhu said with a smile.

How could he not understand the meaning behind Vice President Li's words? It was obvious that he was trying to win people's hearts.

He secretly estimated in his heart that the wind direction was definitely going to change. With Director Yang still around, Vice President Li wouldn't have the courage to win him over so directly!

After listening to He Yuzhu's words, Vice President Li sighed and said with a smile: "Okay, I can't persuade you to do what you want, so let's do it, work hard, and have a good rest after get off work."

"Okay, take care of your guest services. I will go back to the kitchen now. If you need anything, please let me know and I will arrange it for you." He Yuzhu said with a smile.

He left the warehouse and returned to the kitchen to make tea, while thinking about the progress of the original book. He knew that the environment would soon change dramatically, and he could not fight against the situation. All he could do was to grasp his daily life and live in peace.

After waking up, I fell into a mechanical daily routine. No social events in the evening, and getting off work on time became a daily routine.

Riding a bicycle, admiring the scenery of the old city under the sunset, and enjoying the envious gazes of passers-by, He Yuzhu feels that this kind of life is actually not bad.

In contrast, he prefers to work five and a half days a week rather than "996".

Work pressure, or "007"

The social animal model is more suitable.

The only complaint is that I still have to work six days a week.

In a blink of an eye, he was back in the courtyard.

As I stepped into the front yard, I happened to see the third uncle talking to a beautiful, slim woman who exuded a unique scholarly air.

Suddenly, the third uncle saw He Yuzhu with sharp eyes, and immediately went to pull him, saying excitedly: "Zhuzi, you are back. Look, this is my colleague I often mentioned, Mr. Ran Qiuye, who teaches Chinese in our school."

He Yuzhu pushed the cart closer and said with a smile: "Uncle, you really invited Teacher Ran to come!"

As he spoke, he came to Ran Qiuye and said with a smile, "Hello, Teacher Ran, I am He Yuzhu."

"Hello Master He, I'm Ran Qiuye." Ran Qiuye was also a little surprised. Seeing He Yuzhu extending his hand, she also reached out in response, gently shook it and then shook it.

Letting go of his hand, He Yuzhu took a quick look at Ran Qiuye and secretly praised her for being as charming and desirable as the time travelers often said.

"Teacher Ran, why don't you and Uncle San come sit at my place for a while? I stewed some chicken yesterday and there are some leftovers. The food is ready. If you don't mind, how about having dinner together later?"

He Yuzhu felt that it was not a good idea for him to just stand there, so he opened his mouth and made an invitation.

"OK."

At home in the courtyard.

"Uncle San, Teacher Ran, please sit down for a moment. I'll go prepare dinner and be right back."

When He Yuzhu warmly invited Ran Qiuye and Yan Fugui into the house, he asked them to sit down, handed each of them a cup of tea, and then brought them snacks such as milk candy, melon seeds and peanuts, and said with a smile: "You can help yourself to these first. This is the first time that Teacher Ran comes to my house. There is nothing special to treat you. Don't be surprised!"

"Master He, you are so polite. This is already very good." Ran Qiuye responded with a smile.

On the side, the third uncle happily echoed: "It's okay, Zhuzi, go and cook, I'll chat with Teacher Ran first."

"Okay, I'll get ready now!"

He Yuzhu agreed with a smile, then turned up the heat and started cooking steamed buns and rice.

While cooking, the third uncle quietly asked Ran Qiuye: "What do you think of Zhuzi?"

"Very good, Teacher Yan. Master He's house is tidy and neat. It is obvious that he is a person who pays great attention to cleanliness. And I heard from you that he is the chef of the canteen of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. His cooking skills must be very superb." Ran Qiuye smiled, glancing at the busy He Yuzhu from time to time.

Hearing her comments, the third uncle nodded and smiled, "Yes, Zhuzi is now a Level 6 chef with a monthly salary of about fifty yuan.

His cooking skills are also outstanding, and he is often invited to be a guest chef outside, which brings him good financial benefits! "

"That's true, that's good." Ran Qiuye smiled again to express his agreement.

“That’s true, except that he’s nearly thirty years old.

Since you have a good impression of him, why don't you make plans early?"

The third uncle made a suggestion without losing any time.

But Ran Qiuye thought for a moment and said, "We are not in a hurry yet, Teacher Yan, I think we should listen to Master He's opinion. After all, such a big thing requires the consent of both parties, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes, Teacher Ran, you are right."

The two of them chatted and laughed for about half an hour, and the meal was ready. It only needed to be heated up slightly, which saved time and was convenient.

Soon, the dishes were served, and after they sat down, He Yuzhu asked, "Can Teacher Ran drink?"

"I don't drink much. Master He and Teacher Yan, you two can drink." Ran Qiuye declined with a smile.

In response, He Yuzhu nodded, walked to a nearby cupboard, took out the remaining bottle of Wuliangye, looked at the third uncle and smiled: "Then we will use this bottle of wine!"

As soon as Yan Fugui saw the fine wine, his eyes lit up immediately and he said happily, "Hey, Wuliangye, this is good stuff.

How about just some homemade wine?"

Having said that, his eyes were still fixed on the wine in He Yuzhu's hand.

Seeing this, He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Then let's do it, there is no loose wine at home for the time being.

I have bought this wine for quite some time. I drink only a little, so today I will invite you to taste a few more glasses together."

After that, he opened the bottle and poured the wine, prepared the bowls and glasses, filled them with wine, and refilled Ran Qiuye's tea. He raised his glass and said, "Teacher Ran is here for the first time, and the Third Master has honored us. Why don't we toast to show our welcome, how about that?"

"Okay, cheers!"

"cheers!"

All three of them laughed heartily, and He Yuzhu invited everyone to start tasting the delicious food.

When everyone was slightly tipsy and the dishes were rich and varied, Yan Fugui said with a smile: "Zhu Zi, I invited Teacher Ran here sincerely. Can you also tell me your thoughts frankly now?"

Hearing this, Ran Qiuye's face instantly turned red. He Yuzhu on the side glanced at her and then smiled and said, "Teacher Ran is a good person, impeccable, but Uncle, I want to be frank. I actually already have a blind date, and we agreed to meet this Sunday. I have already agreed.

Yesterday I thought you were just mentioning it casually, but I didn't expect you to actually invite Teacher Ran.

So, my plan is to meet the girl on Sunday.

If successful, we can just be friends; if not, I will ask you to arrange to invite Teacher Ran again, and then we can formally get to know each other. What do you think?

Of course, it still depends on Teacher Ran's wishes!"

Realizing that the third uncle took the initiative to mention this matter, He Yuzhu thought that the situation should be made clear so as not to lose respect for Ran Qiuye.

However, his remarks made the Third Uncle and Ran Qiuye feel a little embarrassed, and both of them looked slightly embarrassed.

Ran Qiuye even had the urge to leave.

Seeing this, He Yuzhu quickly poured another glass of wine and raised his glass to apologize: “I’m really sorry, Third Uncle, Teacher Ran, I didn’t mean to look down on you.

To be honest, I could have kept the fact of our meeting on Sunday a secret, but it would have been an offense to you if I had done so.

This is my fault. This glass of wine is my apology for my previous negligence. I am really sorry!"

After drinking it all, his expression relaxed a little, and then he smiled and said, "Teacher Ran, please don't be like this. In fact, you didn't embarrass me. Instead, I am more grateful for your kindness.

The fact that you can be honest with me shows that you have good character. I came here today simply to meet you, without any other intentions. "

Seeing this, the third uncle quickly agreed, “Yes, Zhuzi, I was wrong too.

I invited Teacher Ran on impulse yesterday, which was indeed not thoughtful enough.

If there is any apology to be made, it should be made by me to Teacher Ran. It has nothing to do with you."

“Thank you, Uncle Three and Teacher Ran.

Since we are here today, let's put aside the previous topic and just treat it as a chance to make friends, how about that? "He Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
