Siheyuan: Incredible understanding and superb cooking skills

Although Jia Zhang was muttering to herself, she was actually feeling very sad in her heart.

The only thing their family has for meals is steamed corn bread, but all kinds of aromas wafting from Zhuzi's house next door whet their appetite. This contrast is really frustrating.

Jia Dongxu, who was sitting next to him, ate a steamed bun with pickles. His emotions did not fluctuate as violently as his mother's. "Mom, Master told me that Zhuzi is an experienced master chef in Hongbinlou. Master chefs like him usually don't have to worry about food."

When mentioning these, Jia Dongxu's tone also revealed a hint of envy.

After all, who can resist good food?

After hearing this, Jia Zhang's expression changed slightly. "Did your master say that?"

Jia Dongxu nodded and confirmed: "Yes, he also said that our family had eaten the meal cooked by Zhuzi himself at the deaf old lady's place, and his cooking skills were really very good. If anyone in the yard needs a chef for anything in the future, let Zhuzi come to cook and there will be no problem."

"You've even eaten at that old man's house?"

After hearing this, Jia Zhang thought more and more that something was wrong.

She wondered, since Yi Zhonghai had already accepted Dongxu as his apprentice, why did he have to eat at the same table with Zhuzi? There seemed to be something wrong.

The meticulous Jia Zhang immediately became alert.

For Jia Dongxu, this is a critical period for a smooth transition, which depends on Yi Zhonghai and no deviation is allowed.

"Dongxu, don't envy Shazhu.

He is a cook, but once you officially become his junior apprentice, your status will definitely not be lower than others.

When others know about this, they will envy you and say that you are an excellent worker.

How about this, you take these steamed buns and go treat the master and others to breakfast.

In the future, remember to treat them with more respect and try to please them more."

Having said that, Jia Zhang personally took two nests and handed them to Dongxu, secretly guarding against any bad intentions that Yi Zhonghai might have.

Hearing this, Jia Dongxu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he knew what his mother meant.

However, he also realized that respecting teachers and elders is something that requires long-term accumulation, and the key is to occasionally show filial piety and respect in daily life.

"Mom, I understand. Don't worry. I will do my best to learn the skills from the master."

But in reality, he had no objection to putting away the steamed buns and bringing something for his master for breakfast.

Jia Zhang did not respond, but she had already started thinking about how to prevent the situation from getting worse.

Dongxu’s safety in the factory must not be ignored. She must find a way to stabilize the situation so as not to arouse Yi Zhonghai’s other thoughts.

"Shazhu is already working at Hongbinlou and has his own master..."

Jia Zhang fell into deep thought, and an idea gradually emerged: then we should concentrate on nurturing the growth of our own Dongxu, and not have any other unrealistic ideas!

She snorted in her heart and thought more clearly.

Last night, Xu Damao returned home with bruises all over his face, and not a single part of his body was unharmed.

Faced with this situation, Xu Wood naturally asked some questions.

Unlike Liu Guangqi, Liu Haizhong and his second aunt would not really punish their own flesh and blood, after all, they love their children very much.

Therefore, although Xu Damao was tortured, he remained silent, and Liu Haizhong and the second aunt had no choice but to give up.

However, Xu Wude's approach was different. Xu Damao did not dare to confront him head-on, so he revealed all the details.

When Xu Wude heard that it was He Yuzhu who caused Xu Damao to suffer this misfortune, he was very angry and immediately kicked him hard in the butt again.

Since they knew all this was unnecessary, they couldn't find He Yuzhu to argue with him.

He warned again and again and forbade anyone to approach He Yuzhu again.

As to whether Xu Damao remembered the lesson, it is unknown.

The next morning, lying in bed, Xu Damao really didn't want to go to school to face the school. His swollen face looked like a pig's head. How could he be so ashamed?

Being in adolescence, he attaches great importance to his appearance.

If his classmates saw him in such a miserable state, it would probably become a nightmare for him for the rest of his life.

However, Xu Wood did not compromise with this kind of coquettish behavior.

This was a profound lesson for him.

Listening to the puzzled questions from his uncles, aunts and neighbors in the yard, Xu Damao almost wanted to disappear underground.

However, Xu Wood remained calm and said easily that he was injured in a fall.

After hearing this excuse, everyone lamented that it was unfortunate.

Indeed, this accident seemed very serious. Even the kid from the Xu family, who had always been unlucky, seemed to have suffered a big blow this time.

Everyone looked at Liu Guangqi in surprise, his body covered in bruises. The sight of him being beaten so badly that his whole body was completely bruised was hard for anyone to believe.

Liu Guangqi's injuries were obviously worse than Xu Damao's. Everyone knew that apart from He Yuzhu's attack, Xu Damao's ruthlessness should not be underestimated.

Therefore, regarding the accident involving the two people, everyone's speculations came to mind, especially combined with the events that happened not long ago, they had two possible inferences in their minds.

Could it be that Zhuzi took care of these two guys?

...

When He Yuzhu went out early in the morning, he clearly felt that there was something strange in the eyes of his neighbors.

What's going on with the atmosphere today?

He Yuzhu was confused, but because he was in a hurry to go to work, he didn't think about it too much.

After being discharged from the hospital, he first went to Hongbinlou. Since there were usually no customers in the morning, He Yuzhu reported to the boss Yang and went to the pharmacy to buy some necessary medicines.

Considering that it would not affect daily work, Boss Yang had no objection.

After leaving Hongbin Building, he asked about the location of Xuefeng Pharmacy.

Driven by the recent results of pharmacological research, He Yuzhu has designed a prescription for nourishing the body and replenishing the blood. The required herbs are not many and they are all commonly used varieties.

This is done for the sake of safety. After all, this is the first time to use this medicine and you cannot be careless.

While looking for a place to buy medicine, the image of Master Xie by the river flashed through his mind.

The old-fashioned pharmacy described by Uncle San should not be short of medicinal materials. Besides, they had met once before, and a visit could be regarded as a continuation of their friendship. In this period, connections were very important, especially when He Yuzhu was practicing martial arts and might need to assist his master in preparing medicinal materials in the future. It would be more convenient to have a fixed place to purchase medicinal materials.

The alley of West Street was not far from Hongbin Tower. Judging from He Yuzhu's pace, it took him about twenty minutes to arrive at the door of a small house.

"Xuefeng Pharmacy"

, four lines of words hung under the eaves in an extraordinary manner, obviously written by a celebrity.

The wooden door of the medicine hall is solemn and majestic, and the door and walls are covered with images of medicinal herbs, filled with an ancient and rich medicinal smell.

Seeing this, He Yuzhu nodded in greeting and then walked into the pharmacy.

Although it was morning, the pharmacy had already opened its doors.

Stepping into the inner room, the hall was spacious and bright. He Yuzhu looked around and saw rows of small wooden drawers filled with medicinal materials in front of him, with the names of various herbs clearly indicated on the labels.

In a very short time, he had smelled dozens of different scents.

"Young man, are you here to get medicine?" A young man, about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, wearing a blue cloth shirt, came forward, his eyes full of kindness because he saw the youthfulness of the young man.

"Hello, can I ask if Master Xie is here?"

He Yuzhu asked politely.

"Are you looking for Master Xie?"

The young man was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and looked at the young man in front of him.

He tried to understand if there was some connection between this young man and his master.

At this moment, a series of lively voices suddenly came from the gate leading to the backyard of Xuefeng Pharmacy: "Grandpa, I'm going to work."

"You were complaining to your grandfather last night, but now you are walking faster than anyone else."

Then came a deep male voice.

...

After listening to the conversation, He Yuzhu and the guy turned around to look.

He Yuzhu immediately recognized that the person who spoke last was the owner Xie Xuefeng whom he met by the river.

After a while:

A woman in a light blue singlet walked out of **. She had a slim figure and was wearing tight cloth pants.

When he saw the woman, He Yuzhu looked slightly surprised.

Isn't she the girl I saw in the courtyard last time? Why is she here?

No wonder he remembered it so clearly. The girl had an outstanding appearance. Even in real life, she would leave a deep impression on people at first glance.

Hearing her grandfather's words, Xie Yingqi seemed a little annoyed by being interrupted. "Grandpa, didn't I just tell you that I just started working, please don't discourage me."

Xie Yingqi didn't notice the movement in the lobby and just responded towards the door.

At this moment, Xie Xuefeng finally walked out of the door.

Looking at his granddaughter like this, he smiled helplessly.

Their Xie family has only one descendant in his generation, and among the grandchildren, Xie Yingqi is almost the only one.

On weekdays, she is cared for like a precious treasure.

Unlike Liu Guangqi, Xie Yingqi is not overly spoiled and she is always polite and decent in her dealings with others.

Only when we are together at home does she seem more lively.

Xie Xuefeng originally planned for his daughter to take over the pharmacy after she graduated from college. Although it might be inconvenient for a girl to be in charge, the pharmacy is a family business after all, and it would allow her to learn more about the business details from her parents. Even if she does not run the business herself, she can still play a role and ensure that she is away from work risks.

After all, Mr. Xie was worried about his granddaughter, so he felt more at ease letting her stay at home.

With this medicine hall at home, she has no worries about food and clothing.

However, this precious granddaughter had her own ideas. After majoring in the medical field in middle school, she insisted on working in a clinic. Her reason was that she wanted to be exposed to the latest pharmaceutical knowledge and provide possible innovative suggestions for the subsequent development of the pharmacy.

Xie Xuefeng was completely unable to defeat his favorite student.

So when Xie Yingqi just started working at the clinic recently, she made a small mistake, for which he even asked her to take a red envelope and sincerely apologize to the patient.

"Yingqi, I don't mean to hit you. As doctors, we must be rigorous in treating patients. Our mistakes may be just one error, but they may be life-threatening." When talking about medical care, Xie Xuefeng looked serious.

As an elder, he takes this belief as the core of his life and conduct. Although he loves his granddaughter, he will not compromise on this point when it comes to educating her.

Otherwise it would really be harmful to her.

Xie Yingqi obviously understood the importance of the matter.

When she reflected on that mistake, she sincerely accepted her grandfather's warning and promised to work more seriously and attentively in the clinic in the future. "Grandpa, I remember it.
