Siheyuan: Get god-level cooking skills at the beginning

Hearing this, and seeing Director Yang's confident expression, Director Yang felt relieved.

He waved his hand and said, "No need to bother. In that case, we will set off at three in the afternoon. You make a list of the ingredients needed and have Xiao Chen prepare them."

"Ok, no problem."

In the steel plant cafeteria.

After returning, He Yuzhu began to think about how to make those dishes. After all, he knew that this was to entertain senior officials. The superiors in the original work eventually became his friend who was both his teacher and friend.

However, Sichuan cuisine is simple and there are not many famous dishes. Considering that there would not be too many people, he decided that eight dishes and one soup would be enough, and any more would only cause waste.

After finalizing the recipe, he made a list of the necessary ingredients and gave it to Secretary Chen, and then prepared the collective lunch.

He did not cook it himself today, but chose another chef to take charge of this part.

On the one hand, it is because personal operation is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and on the other hand, it is to avoid objections from other chefs due to the daily preparation of large pot dishes.

Noticing that he was not in the mood for this, the other chefs also hurried to work, and in a blink of an eye, it was lunch time.

There were not many people coming to eat at noon, and most of them gathered at the door.

Xu Damao was debugging the equipment. It seemed that there was an open-air movie arranged tonight to celebrate.

Although it was not shown at noon, most people were still attracted by the novelty of it.

Another reason is that everyone still remembers the taste of the cafeteria food from yesterday, and many people who originally did not want to eat here paid for the meals.

Today's meal is not as delicious as last night's, and because of some unexpected expenses yesterday, the popularity of the cafeteria has returned to its normal state.

In the original work's memory, Xu Damao accompanied him to his home as a guest, but was finally kicked out because of inappropriate content in the conversation.

Do I need to take him with me this time?

At this time, Secretary Chen suddenly came in and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Master He, I was planning to prepare the meal outside, but I received a call and they are not available today. We have to wait for notification."

He Yuzhu did not feel the slightest bit dissatisfied when he heard this. He smiled and responded, "It's okay, let's wait for next time.

Oh, Secretary, you may not have bought the ingredients yet. Since they are fresh, you don’t need to send them here specially.

"Haha, don't worry about that. We contacted the purchasing department immediately after receiving the notification." Secretary Chen smiled heartily.

Master He said, "Well, go ahead and do your work. There's a lot of smoke here."

"Okay, Master He, please help yourself."

After Secretary Chen left, He Yuzhu realized that the evening activities had been arranged, and he began to call Ma Hua over to prepare to teach cooking.

Time flies, and as the clock is about to get off work, the movie area in the open air venue is already filled with audiences.

"Mom, over there!"

At this time, Zhuzi was leading the two sisters to fight for a seat, and no one could blame them in the noise.

As soon as he saw Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru coming, he waved and called them.

Seeing the situation, Qin Huairu quickly led the curious little girl Qin Jingru, who was looking around, towards the crowd.

"Mom, this is the place reserved for you and my aunt."

"Got it. You have to take good care of your two sisters. Do you hear me?"

Qin Huairu warned with a smile.

“Got it, Mom.”

Bang Geng smiled and nodded.

Although he often stole things during this period and was in a rebellious stage, he still cared about his sisters and had a sense of responsibility like an older brother.

"Hey, hey, hey, you can't sit there." Xu Damao, who was busy inspecting equipment, suddenly discovered that the seat reserved for the leader was occupied, and couldn't help but remind loudly.

Afterwards, Qin Huairu and a girl he didn't know appeared in front of him.

Seeing this, Xu Damao immediately became interested and walked over quickly. He first quietly looked at Qin Jingru next to Qin Huairu and thought that this girl was quite good-looking.

But he knew that Qin Huairu was not an easy person to deal with, so he pretended to be polite and asked, "Oh, it's you, Sister Qin. Who's that person next to you?"

After realizing that Xu Damao was a bad guy, Qin Huairu was unwilling to talk to him too much and said coldly: "This is my cousin, Qin Jingru!"

Then he introduced her to Qin Jingru: "This is our factory's projectionist, Xu Damao, our neighbor who lives in the same courtyard with us."

Xu Damao knew that this was a great opportunity to strike up a conversation, so he introduced himself with a smile: "Hi, Miss Jingru, I'm Xu Damao, the only professional projectionist in our factory, and I'm glad to meet you!"

Qin Jingru, who has always lived in the countryside, is full of novelty about the scenes in the city and is curious about everything in front of her: the peculiar way of greeting, as the only projectionist in the steel rolling mill, and Xu Damao's considerable appearance advantage, he showed his charming image in just a few words.

Qin Jingru blushed and said, "Hello, my name is Qin Jingru."

"hey-hey!"

Xu Damao chuckled and was about to say something when he was scolded by Qin Huairu beside him. Qin Huairu turned to Qin Jingru and said, "Jingru, ignore him, he is not a good person!"

After these words were spoken, Qin Jingru's smile faded a little.

Although she hoped to marry into the capital, not everyone was willing to do so.

Before Xu Damao could refute, Qin Jingru reminded him: "Forget it, aren't you afraid that your wife will see it? He is not easy to deal with."

This statement has a double meaning. It is not only a warning to Xu Damao, but also a reminder to Qin Jingru: he has a family and is not easy to approach.

Sure enough, the smile on Qin Jingru's face faded a lot. Although she yearned for city life, her attitude towards marriage and love was still quite rational.

"Sister Qin, it's unfair for you to say that. I'm just concerned about our sisters. What's the matter with her coming here this time?"

Xu Damao began to close the distance.

"What does it have to do with you?"

Qin Huairu directly retorted.

Qin Jingru was simple-minded and said without hiding anything: "My sister introduced me to your factory to see the chef He Yuzhu, and I came to take a look."

Hearing this, Qin Huairu felt anxious, but she couldn't say it out loud. Didn't she, Qin Huairu, understand Qin Jingru's innocence?

Xu Damao and "Silly Pillar"

He Yuzhu and Sha Zhu have been sworn enemies since childhood. Many of Sha Zhu's blind dates were ruined by Xu Damao. More than once, it was her intervention, and she also used Xu Damao's tactics.

"He Yuzhu? Who is that? Ah... you're not talking about Shazhu, are you?"

Xu Damao was stunned at first, then spoke as if he suddenly understood.

Qin Jingru was very surprised when she heard the word "Shazhu".

In this era, the word "silly"

People with this word are usually not regarded as normal people. Could it be that her sister was playing a joke on her?

She immediately asked, "I'm talking about He Yuzhu, not the silly Zhu you mentioned!"

"Hey, He Yuzhu and Shazhu are the same person, sister Jingru, you have to know that if I say He Yuzhu, most people in the factory may not know him, but if I say Shazhu, that is a name that everyone is familiar with." Xu Damao thought of a solution instantly and fought back cleverly.

"Let me tell you..."

Xu Damao, who was about to continue insulting He Yuzhu, suddenly heard an angry call from not far away: "Xu Damao!"

This surprised Xu Damao, it turned out that Lou Xiao'e really appeared!

He wanted to continue, but Lou Xiao'e was not someone he could easily deal with.

So, he laughed at Qin Jingru who had a bitter smile on her face, and quickly said: "Oh, sister Jingru, my wife is here to pick me up. Let's talk about it another day." After saying that, he turned and left.

Qin Huairu, who was standing by, was very unhappy. She wanted to take her sister Qin Jingru to watch a movie in the city and show off her city life, but she didn't expect to meet "Cheng Yaojin" halfway.

Xu Damao.

She knew that Xu Damao's words just now had planted an uneasy feeling in Qin Jingru's heart about He Yuzhu, whom she had never met.

Open-air cinema, steel plant.

In this day and age, first impressions are extremely important when it comes to meeting someone for the first time, especially when it comes to marriage.

Therefore, Qin Huairu was a little unhappy about Xu Damao's disruption of the situation.

"Sister, is that He Yuzhu the Shazhu you introduced?" Sure enough, Qin Jingru's face didn't look very good, showing that her favorability towards her blind date had decreased.

Qin Huairu was also unhappy, but she understood that marrying well was crucial to the long-term development of the family.

So he quickly smiled and said, "Don't listen to Xu Damao's nonsense. He and your brother are old enemies. The two of them are incompatible. As long as there is a chance to suppress the other, they will definitely not show mercy."

Hearing this, although Qin Jingru felt that this explanation was logical, the word "Silly Pillar" still made her feel a little concerned.

At this time, the movie "Ashima" is about to begin.

The back kitchen of the cafeteria.

As the end of get off work approached, He Yuzhu took a lunch box home as usual.

Before entering the yard, he saw his third uncle Yan Fugui fiddling with his fishing rod intently, apparently planning to go out of town for fishing on the weekend.

"Hello, Third Uncle." He Yuzhu went forward to greet him politely because he didn't want to make an enemy, and although Yan Fugui was shrewd, he was a kind person.

A person who earns more than 20 yuan a month has to support a family and has to be frugal in order to survive.

As soon as he saw He Yuzhu and the lunch box in his hand, Yan Fugui immediately started to think:

"Hey, Silly Zhu, you brought your lunch box home again, do you want to have a drink with us later?"

Seeing He Yuzhu's slightly attentive attitude, he knew that someone was setting up a trap to take his lunch box.

He Yuzhu didn't care about it. If he wasn't afraid of trouble, he wouldn't have brought these things back.

But such a small amount of food could not be given directly to Yan Fugui, after all, he had to have dinner with the deaf old lady next.

So he smiled and said, "I'm going to have dinner with the old lady today, so there won't be many dishes, so we won't have any wine.

How about this, if Third Master is craving for wine, when I have some free time, I will cook a few dishes and treat everyone to a drink, how about that? "

Yan Fugui was quite reluctant at first, but when he heard what he said next, he was very happy.

Because Sha Zhu always keeps his word.

So, he agreed with a smile: "Well, I really have something I want to tell you!"

He Yuzhu knew what the good thing that the third uncle was talking about was. Wasn't it about introducing him to Ran Qiuye, a female teacher in their school?

"That's a good idea. I will invite you to visit my humble abode again when I am free. Bye bye now!"

After saying that, He Yuzhu waved his hand and turned to leave.

When I got home, Qin Huairu and others had not returned home yet, and the house was quite quiet.

So he decided to go to Second Aunt's place and get the loan that had been agreed upon last night.

Putting down the lunch box, He Yuzhu changed his shoes and walked towards the second aunt.

"Second Aunt, Second Uncle!"

As soon as I entered the door, the second uncle came back unexpectedly. As one of the highest-level fitters in the factory, he had a lot of face in front of his leaders, so it was not impossible for him to come back early.

"Silly Zhu came to see me?"

The two old men saw him and greeted him with smiles on their faces.

"I'm here. Just like I said yesterday, I'm going to take a day off early tomorrow and go shopping in the department store first. The New Year for Yu Shui is coming soon, and I have to help her prepare her dowry as soon as possible, so as not to delay serious matters!"

He Yuzhu didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose.

After hearing this, the second uncle nodded slightly, and then said to the second aunt: "This is a big deal, you bring 500 yuan."

The second aunt responded readily because the second uncle had already mentioned this matter yesterday.

Although 500 yuan is a considerable amount of money, their husband Yi only earns about yuan a month, and the living expenses of the two of them together are only about yuan.

They saved the rest of the money.

And if the money was used to lend to other people, she would inevitably have worries, but if it was for Sha Zhu, she sincerely hoped that Sha Zhu would not return it so that she could keep it for his retirement in the future.

"okay!"

The second aunt smiled and nodded, then turned and went into the house to get the money.

Seeing He Yuzhu still standing, the second uncle continued: "I just went to see the old lady, and she said that you promised that as long as you are at home, you will accompany the old lady for dinner.

"Silly Zhu, don't you think this is too big of a deal? You've taken away our responsibility to provide for the old lady?"

He said it with a big smile.

If this continues, the second uncle's retirement will be taken care of.

Hearing this, He Yuzhu understood the old man's implication and replied with a smile, "It's because the old lady has always taken good care of me. Now that Yu Shui is getting married, I feel like if one person is full, the whole family will not be hungry, so I thought of making something delicious for the old lady."

"As for snatching the pension for the old lady, I don't think you need to worry about it. After all, you two are still bearing the main responsibility. I am just helping to show my filial piety and have no other intentions." He continued.

Uncle Yi Zhonghai smiled and nodded, saying approvingly: "Not bad, Shazhu, you are a very grateful child."

At this time, the aunt came over with a thick stack of cash in her hand. There were ten bills in each stack, placed horizontally. It was obvious that this was the counted amount.

"Silly, this is for you."

The old lady handed the money to He Yuzhu with a smile.

After taking it, he glanced at it briefly and then put it in his pocket.

He did not count carefully because he was convinced that these two neighbors would not cheat him. After all, they had known each other for many years and they only gave him money when they needed it.

Although this is a lot of money, it is just a small matter for He Yuzhu.

If there were any surprises, it would just be funny.

He just laughed off the old man's reminder.

Yi Zhonghai saw that he didn't count the amount, so he quickly said, "Shazhu, don't miss it. This is a lot of money, it's better to count it." But He Yuzhu smiled and waved his hand, "What to count? You two will hurt me, right? I haven't trusted my neighbors for so many years? I am like a junior here, I won't do this!"
