Siheyuan works as a nanny for Shazhu

The next day, Jiang Feng left home early in the morning. He didn't even have breakfast at home. He just bought something to eat outside. When he was almost at Huang Ming's house, there were 4 chickens hanging on the car. He couldn't finish all the chickens in the space, so why would he go out to buy more at night? When he arrived at Huang Ming's house, he asked him to keep two for laying eggs. If they were not enough, he would leave them there and run away.

Not long after I arrived at the factory and entered the office, Li Huaide called me over. As soon as I entered the door, Li Huaide asked me to sit down, and his secretary brought me tea.

Li Huaide handed an envelope to Jiang Feng and said, "I asked several people for it. Now I have only this much. Use it first. I also told them to keep the extra for me."

Jiang Feng took the envelope, stood up, took Li Huaide's hand and said, "Director, you have helped me a lot, thank you, thank you, I will find time to prepare some good dishes, and then let Brother Zhuzi cook a good meal for you."

"That's great. You should come too. I won't talk about other things, but I must try Master He's cooking. Master He rarely cooks now. His apprentice Ma Hua's cooking skills are also pretty good, at least 50% of Master He's level."

"Director, this is my fault. I'm not on a business trip. My wife and children are at home. I told Brother Zhuzi to go back early to help look after the family. Otherwise, he would have cooked for you personally."

"I wonder why he rushes back home as soon as he gets off work in the past few months, and leaves any hospitality to Ma Hua. Ma Hua's cooking skills are good, but it depends on who you compare him with."

"That's right. Ma Hua is far inferior to Zhuzi. He still has a lot to learn. This is also because the leaders took a fancy to him and made him the head chef. Otherwise, where would there be so many dishes for him to cook?"

"You, you are also a leader, okay? You protected He Yuzhu before, and now you are protecting He Yuzhu's apprentice. You say that it is the leader who is doing you a favor, but when will you, as a leader, show some favor to him?"

"Director, what kind of leader am I? It's because you came up and gave me a hand. Otherwise, I wouldn't be a section chief now. It's only under you that I can become a deputy director. I have to thank you for promoting me."

Li Huaide laughed out loud. He hadn't heard any flattery from Jiang Feng in the past few months. He used to be very wary of Jiang Feng, but after several personnel adjustments, he found that Jiang Feng only looked after his own technical department and He Yuzhu in the cafeteria, and didn't care about anything else. Only then did he slowly feel relieved. He was a little scared when he went to the Ministry of Metallurgy for a meeting last time.

He never thought that Jiang Feng had that kind of relationship with him. Now seeing Jiang Feng coming back and still respecting him as always, he couldn't help but be unhappy. The two chatted for a few more words and Jiang Feng was ready to say goodbye. Before leaving, he opened the envelope and took a look. There were eight milk powder tickets and four malted milk tickets in it.

Jiang Feng thought, Li Huaide is indeed a man with a lot of connections, so he went over and said, "Director, look at how much these tickets cost, I can't ask you to pay for them for me."

Li Huaide said, "Don't worry about these trivial matters. That cigarette helped me a lot. Just keep it."

"No, Director. If it's a reward from the factory, I'll keep it. I asked you to help me get it back, but I can't let you spend money on it. This is all I have today. Let me see, it's exactly 50 yuan. Director, you must accept it, otherwise I won't dare to come to you next time if I have something to do."

As Jiang Feng spoke, he used the space to count 50 yuan, reached into his pocket, took it out, poured out all the tickets and put them in his pocket, put the money in, and placed it on the table.

Li Huaide pointed at Jiang Feng and took it away, saying, "You, you want to settle this matter with me? I'll take it. Do you want it again next time?"

"Yes, can you prepare more? This is something I can't even find even with money. Only you, the director, have the connections. Otherwise, where can I get it?"

"Okay, I'll let you know if you come back next time. Don't bring anything here again. I'll collect it for you as usual."

"Thank you, Director. I'll give it to He Yuzhu. I'll thank you on his behalf."

Li Huaide nodded, and Jiang Feng stepped out and turned to walk towards the cafeteria office. He knocked on the door but no one answered. Jiang Feng ran to the kitchen and saw Ma Hua instructing the apprentices.

"Ma Hua, you can also guide your apprentices now."

"Oh, uncle-master, you are here. Go find the master. He is lying in the small warehouse."

He Yuzhu also heard the sound, sat up and waved, Jiang Feng walked over and asked: "How was it, did you talk about it last night, what do you think this is?"

He Yuzhu's eyes widened when he saw a few tickets in his hand. Jiang Feng continued, "There are a total of 8 milk powder tickets and 4 malted milk tickets. You can take two first. Aunt Xin is too old, so prepare more for her. If you need more in the future, I'll give them to you."

"Okay, where did it come from? I asked a few people but they couldn't find any. If I can't get it, I'm going to exchange it on the black market. It's a good thing it's still early, otherwise I would have gone there earlier."

"I'm looking for Director Li. Please prepare the food when the time comes. We can treat him to another meal when we have time. He said that if there is any left, please continue to help collect it."

"Well, that's to thank him. I'll give you whatever amount you want."

Jiang Feng was about to take the ticket back, but He Yuzhu said hastily, "No, no, I was wrong, I'll keep it."

"That's good enough. Go and make me a little dish to try."

"Okay, Xiaofeng, just watch. I'll make you a home-cooked meal today."

He Yuzhu jumped up from the recliner. Jiang Feng patted the recliner with his sleeves and lay down on it. As soon as He Yuzhu went out, he shouted, "Ma Hua, Liu Lan, come here. And you, come and watch if you want to. How much you can learn is up to you."

As soon as He Yuzhu said he would be the chef and allow everyone to watch and learn, the people in the kitchen gathered around. He Yuzhu told Ma Hua to get some black fungus, carrots, some lean meat, green peppers, ginger, onions, and garlic ready.

He Yuzhu knocked on the table and said, "Today I'm going to make a home-cooked dish, also a Sichuan dish, fish-flavored shredded pork, without bamboo shoots. I'll make it once, and everyone can take a look."

First soak the fungus, cut the meat and green pepper into shreds, marinate the meat, cut the onion into small pieces, and mince the ginger and garlic. He Yuzhu took the kitchen knife and prepared all the dishes with ease in a short while. He waited for a while, touched the fungus, and cut it into shreds. When all the dishes were prepared, he started a fire and boiled water.

After the water boils, blanch the shredded fungus and set aside. When the water is drained, start to heat the oil. He Yuzhu explains as he does it, how hot the oil should be to put the shredded pork in, and what color the pork should turn when it's time to remove from the pan. Then start to stir-fry the sauce. When the sauce turns red, add the ginger, onion and garlic.

Add salt, pepper, soy sauce and a little sugar while stir-frying. After the sugar melts, add a little water, a little vinegar, and starch juice, stir-fry until the juice is boiled.

After the sauce in the pot is cooked, add the shredded meat and various side dishes, continue to stir-fry until the sauce is fully blended into the dish, turn off the heat, remove from the pot and serve.

This time He Yuzhu deliberately made more and divided it into two plates. He asked Ma Hua to bring one plate to Jiang Feng and put the other plate on the table. He asked Liu Lan to bring a pair of chopsticks over: "Everyone have a taste and see how it tastes. This dish is quite common and you can make it at home. It's okay even if you're missing one or two side dishes."

Most of the people in the kitchen had never tasted He Yuzhu's stir-fried dishes, so they ate from the big pot. They picked up their chopsticks and took a bite. Some said it was fresh, some said it was spicy, and some said it was sour. He Yuzhu said, "This dish is deep red when it comes out of the pot. It has all the flavors you mentioned. Think about it and try it when you get back."

The people in the kitchen finished the dish in a short while. He Yuzhu put down the spoon, took off his apron, walked towards Jiang Feng, and picked up four steamed buns on the way.

Jiang Feng had already sat up and was eating his food. He Yuzhu handed him the steamed bun and said, "You really want me to serve you? When the food is finished, you will just eat the steamed bun."

"That's right. You don't know what I paid for. I'm heartbroken. I gave him one pack of cigarettes given by the big boss. Otherwise, why would he help you get these? These are scarce resources. Even if you buy them on the black market, you have to take your chances. There may not be that many."

As soon as Jiang Feng finished speaking, He Yuzhu started to search his pockets, saying, "You must have more on you. If there was only one, you wouldn't be willing to give it away."

Jiang Feng put down his chopsticks and hit He Yuzhu's hand. There were only a few clapping sounds. He said, "There are no more. Even if there are, it's not your share. This time, I gave them away for these things. I gave you the tickets. You still want cigarettes? You wish."

"Okay, if you don't give it to me, I'll go back and tell my dad and master, and I'll shake it out for you when we have dinner this weekend. I'll see if you can keep it. I don't care, but at least give me a pack so I can have a taste of what my boss usually smokes."

"You, you are such a mean person. I went everywhere to look for things for my sister-in-law, and you threatened me. I will go back to my sister-in-law and sue you, so that you will not have 20 yuan a month in the future."

"Bah, do you think your sister-in-law will believe you? Look at this." After saying that, he took out a handful of money from his pocket, counted it, and found that there was still fifty or sixty yuan. Not only did he pay off the bills outside, he also ran out to buy several cartons of cigarettes at one time and put them in the office.

Jiang Feng looked at the money in He Yuzhu's hand with a half-smile on his face. He Yuzhu slapped his head and took out 20 yuan and handed it to Jiang Feng: "Take it, take it. Remember to tell Xiaoxue, I will return it to you."

Jiang Feng put the money away and hummed. He had to say that this dish was really delicious. The sour and spicy taste alone was enough to whet his appetite. He was eating it while taking a bite of steamed bun and another bite of vegetable.

After Jiang Feng finished eating, he picked up the water cup and drank two sips of water. Jiang Feng was about 70% full. He looked around and saw that there was no more food, so he put down his chopsticks. He Yuzhu was watching on the side and came up to take away the plate. Jiang Feng nodded and said, "You did a good job today. Keep going next time."

"roll."
