Siheyuan: Get god-level cooking skills at the beginning

Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai quickly stood up, thought for a moment, shook his head and sighed, "Go talk to that girl and find out the situation of Zhuzi first."

"I see. I'll go and talk to her." Auntie felt that this was a wise approach and that it would not be appropriate for her to ask directly.

Thinking of this, the aunt quickly put on her clothes, went out and walked towards the washroom.

"Zhu Zi, what are you doing..." Auntie asked in surprise.

At this time, He Yuzhu, who was helping Wang Qian heat water, saw the aunt coming and explained with a smile: "Auntie, you got up early. Today we plan to get the marriage certificate. I will take a long vacation to prepare the application." He then introduced Wang Qian, "Qian'er, this is Auntie, she is very kind to us brothers and sisters."

Upon hearing the good news, all of the old lady's worries instantly disappeared. She held Wang Qian's hand affectionately and said with a smile: "Qian'er, I'm so happy for you! I'll send the gifts over later to congratulate you."

He Yuzhu, who was watching from the side, saw that the two were talking happily, and his mood became relaxed. He said to Wang Qian, "Qian'er, you just chat with Auntie. I'll go make breakfast."

He told the old lady, "By the way, old lady, you and the second master don't have to get up early to cook today. I have prepared the extra food and will send it to you two later. As for the old lady, I will also take care of her breakfast today."

Hearing this, the old lady happily responded, "Then let's enjoy what's ready." Then she turned back and chatted with Wang Qian.

At this time, He Yuzhu walked into the house and took out a large soup pot. Boiling water instantly gushed out of the space. Then he took out half a pound of pork from the space and chopped it into minced meat. The chili peppers were also chopped into small pieces. After the ingredients were prepared, he heated the pan, added oil, and started cooking.

After a while, the house was filled with the rich aroma of meat, and the whole courtyard was attracted by this smell.

Since he received ten kilograms of dried noodles yesterday, He Yuzhu planned to simply make a spicy fried pork noodles. Because He Yushui was not back, He Yuzhu decisively added one and a half kilograms of noodles into the pot for the six people to share.

The aunt in the courtyard was still chatting with Wang Qian. Before she finished a few words, He Yuzhu shouted in the house: "Qian'er, hurry up and wash up, we are going to prepare dinner!"

As they were talking, six bowls of noodles had already come out of the pot, paired with freshly fried minced meat and chili peppers, some remaining peanuts and various seasonings. The taste was simply wonderful.

He Yuzhu carefully packed two bowls of noodles into a lunch box, picked them up and walked to the backyard. As he was leaving, he said to Wang Qian and an aunt with a smile on his face: "The meal is ready and on the table. Come and eat the noodles after you finish washing up. Oh, and the food for the two elders is also ready. Eat it quickly, otherwise it will stick together!"

"Okay, Brother Zhuzi."

"It will be right there." They both answered with a smile, and then He Yuzhu quickly delivered the noodles to the backyard.

When he came to the backyard, he saw Lou Xiao'e washing up and there were some noises in the house. He Yuzhu told her to wash up quickly and have breakfast, then went back to the house.

"Grandma, I will cook tonight." He Yuzhu said with a smile as he walked in.

When the deaf old lady heard his voice, she immediately said happily: "Oh, my eldest grandson is cooking dinner himself, so I have to eat more!"

He Yuzhu walked over, helped her sit down, pulled the dining table over, and took out noodles from the food box. "Mother-in-law, eat first. Xiao'e has also done it. Let her eat as soon as possible later. I have to go back to take care of some things. There are a lot of things to do today." Looking at the impatient aunt, he reminded with a smile.

"You do your thing." After getting permission, He Yuzhu left with his lunch box. He happened to meet Lou Xiao'e who had just finished washing up. He smiled and told her where the noodles were. "The noodles are on the table. I'll go back first."

"Ok."

When he returned to the room, he saw only Wang Qian. She smiled and said, "Grandpa and grandma have declined our noodles and want to give us more time to spend together."

He Yuzhu waved his hand indifferently, "It's okay, maybe he wants us to have some time alone. Don't be polite, eat, the noodles will be stale soon!" After that, he walked forward, took Wang Qian's hand, and helped her sit on the chair.

As soon as Wang Qian sat down, she cried out, which made He Yuzhu laugh. "It's all because of you!" she blamed him.

"Okay, okay, it's all my fault. It's my fault. You were so stubborn last night." He Yuzhu responded half-jokingly.

"You...you're still talking!" She blushed.

"Okay, okay, let's have breakfast." He said as he handed over the noodles. While eating, he talked: "Qian, I thought about it. Considering your inconvenience now, I won't ride a bike today. I'll prepare something for you. I'll take you to the steel plant to ask for a day off, and then go to your unit to ask for leave. We'll do the same with the food issue another day.

"Let's try to get the marriage certificate in the morning, and then go home to rest at noon. I got 300 kilograms of cotton tickets yesterday. I'll go buy some in my free time this afternoon, and find a cotton-spinning shop to sew a few quilts. I'll give you one, keep five for the two of us, and give the rest to my parents. I also want to pick out a watch for you, and buy you some clothes..."

At this point, He Yuzhu thought that in order to choose suitable clothes, he should take Wang Qian with him, so he added: "Forget it, buy some cotton first and come to see you in the afternoon. Then we'll go to the mall to choose clothes together!"

Wang Qian felt warm in her heart when she heard this, and she said softly, "It's up to you to decide."

"Well, let's hurry up and eat, and then we'll set off," he suggested.

"Okay." The two of them enjoyed this simple time warmly. At the same time, the atmosphere in the Qin family was completely different. Qin Huairu was in a bad mood when she woke up in the morning, especially when she saw her daughter Qin Jingru who had been staying at home and had not left. She was filled with anger.

Yesterday, she just got home from get off work and happened to see Qin Jingru squatting at the entrance of the alley. After learning the details, she felt sympathy for Qin Jingru and took her home to settle down.

This morning, Qin Huairu felt mixed emotions when she heard He Yuzhu telling her aunt about his upcoming marriage. She glared at Qin Jingru, thinking that if she had listened to her, she would have gotten everything Wang Qian had now, and the matter between Shazhu and their family would not have come to this point.

"Hurry up and get up, do you think you are a grown-up girl?" Qin Huairu asked bluntly.

Return to the Jia Mansion.

"Sister, even though you feel heartbroken for Shazhu's feelings, you shouldn't vent these emotions on me!" Qin Jingru complained with a pout.

Qin Huairu glared at her and said unhappily, "Do you think I'm wrong to say a few words to you? If I were you, look around this yard, who has better conditions than Sha Zhu? There's meat every day, and the meals are varied; everything on the furniture is complete except for the radio. How many people in the whole city of Beijing can afford such conditions?" She looked at Qin Jingru helplessly, her tone a little anxious.

However, Qin Jingru was still thinking about how to please Xu Damao, so she said perfunctorily: "Okay, sister. I will go back when Brother Damao is in a better mood. Anyway, I won't stay at your house for too long, so just let me have some peace for a few days."

Seeing that her sister was still stubborn, Qin Huairu felt exhausted and said nothing more.

Although Xu Damao's words yesterday were hurtful, she did not think deeply about it. After all, his luck had been too bad during this period, so it was understandable.

At He Yuzhu's house, after breakfast, Wang Qian was unable to move, so he took over the task of washing the dishes. After quickly washing the dishes, he put a new towel on the back seat of the bicycle, then supported Wang Qian and slowly pushed the cart out the door.

After locking the door, the two slowly walked out of the courtyard.

After making sure Wang Qian was sitting in the back seat, he looked back before pushing the car forward slowly. Not long after, they arrived at the steel mill. He told Wang Qian to wait for a moment, then he went to the office of the factory director Yang, carrying a small bag of melon seeds, peanuts, wedding candy, and a pack of cigarettes.

After obtaining the required certificate, he asked for leave from the canteen and arranged for another chef to take over the job. Then, amid everyone's congratulations, he rode his bike with Wang Qian to the police station.

About an hour later, they came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau with an award certificate in their hands—actually a marriage certificate. The marriage certificate nowadays is different from that in later times, it is just a certificate with a style similar to an award certificate.

Looking at the affectionate He Yuzhu, Wang Qian imitated his tone and said, "Brother Zhuzi, please give me more guidance in the future."

Hearing her answer, He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Madam, you have to change your address."

When the word "wife" was mentioned, Wang Qian's cheeks turned red and she called softly, "Husband..."

He looked at the blush on her cheeks and felt his heart beat fast. He kissed her again, making her even more shy.

After receiving the marriage certificate, the two of them rode their bikes directly to the department store. After entering the mall, she led Wang Qian straight to the clothing and footwear section and selected two pairs of leather shoes and two sets of clothes that looked great on her.

Noticing a mink coat hanging on the wall, He Yuzhu asked curiously, "Excuse me, how much does that coat cost?"

"It's 86 yuan, no receipt required."

Even though she had already bought many items, the attitude of the shop assistants was still as cold as before. He Yuzhu didn't say anything more, but just asked them to bring one for Wang Qian to try on. Reluctantly, the mink coat was put on Wang Qian's shoulders. In an instant, she looked like a famous lady from the mountains and seas during the Republic of China, with her posture and appearance clearly displayed. He Yuzhu was dumbfounded.

"Brother Zhuzi, this is too expensive. Let's not buy this dress." Wang Qian felt a little embarrassed and was not satisfied with the way she put it on.

But He Yuzhu quickly regained his senses and said decisively: "Buy it! Get the invoice." Others were envious when they heard this. No one expected that he would make up his mind so easily to buy a coat worth more than 80 yuan.

The total cost was 155.60 yuan, and a series of receipts were attached. Because He Yuzhu bought the most high-end items in the store, the price was so high. If he just picked something cheaper, he wouldn't have to buy this mink coat, and it would only cost 30 yuan.
