Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

"Uncle Zhang, I understand." He Yuzhu said into the phone.

He put down the receiver, hung up the phone, rubbed his cheeks with his hands, and walked out of the office.

"Master He, what's wrong with you?" Hong Deyou walked over from the corridor and asked when he saw that his expression was not very good.

He Yuzhu adjusted his mood, looked at Hong Deyou, and smiled: "It's okay, Manager Hong, thank you very much!"

Hong Deyou smiled slightly and waved his hand: "I just happened to have something to do with Accountant Ji. Have you finished your business?"

"Manager Hong, I've already called. If there's nothing else, I'll go to the kitchen first." He Yuzhu bowed and walked towards the kitchen.

As he walked, he was still thinking about the news he heard on the phone.

Feng Liping said that Chen Xueru had already gone out, so she called the silk shop, and Zhang Yuanfa said that Chen Xueru had not arrived at the store yet.

"This is really strange! Did Xueru go out to play?" He Yuzhu shook his head. "Forget it. I don't want to think about it anymore. I'll go find her in a few days."

As it approached noon, the number of customers in the restaurant began to increase gradually, and the kitchen began to get busy.

Chen Xueru got off the rickshaw, paid the fare, looked up at the store door, smiled, and walked in.

She walked through the restaurant door, walked towards the counter with ease, and looked at Ji Hongli behind her with a smile.

"Sister Ji, hello! Is Master He here today?"

Ji Hongli looked at Chen Xueru in front of her, whose skin was as white as snow and whose temperament was elegant, and she secretly sighed that her niece had no chance.

She collected her thoughts and replied with a smile, "Miss Chen, Chef He is here today. He is busy in the kitchen right now!"

"Okay, thank you, sister!" Chen Xueru was delighted when she heard that. She thanked Ji Hongli, turned around and left the counter.

Zhang Mao walked towards Chen Xueru and said, "Hey, Miss Chen, you are my distinguished guest! Is everything still the same today?"

Chen Xueru nodded at him with a smile on her face: "Manager Zhang is right. Thank you for your help."

"Okay! Please go upstairs! I'll go to the kitchen and arrange it for you."

After Zhang Mao finished speaking, he waved his hand to the waiter and took Chen Xueru to the private room upstairs to sit down.

He turned and walked to the kitchen to arrange this special menu for He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu was just taking a dish out of the pot and putting it on a plate when he saw Zhang Mao jogging towards him from afar.

But there was no anxiety on Zhang Mao's face. Instead, he looked like he was watching the fun.

He Yuzhu looked at this somewhat abnormal behavior and wondered if it was...

"Master He, you have another job!" Zhang Mao came up to He Yuzhu and held back his laughter.

He Yuzhu was a little disappointed when he heard this: "Manager Zhang, give me the menu! I'll start cooking right away."

Zhang Mao carefully observed his expression, and upon hearing this, he quickly said, "There is no menu, just follow the instructions."

After he said that, he couldn't help laughing, reached out and patted He Yuzhu on the shoulder, then turned and left the stove.

He Yuzhu understood instantly that he was right, it was Chen Xueru who came. It was just that Zhang Mao wanted to be funny just now, so he controlled his expression.

He thought carefully in his mind that it was too late to make local dishes now, and the ingredients were not available, so he decided to make sweet and sour carp and candied yam.

He Yuzhu decided on the dishes, started to clean the pot, and prepared to start cooking.

The fire was jumping and the heat was rising as He Yuzhu prepared two dishes with ease.

He took off his apron, walked aside, washed his face carefully with a towel, and then walked to the front hall with the tray.

"Boom boom boom!"

He Yuzhu asked the waiter about the room, came to the private room, knocked on the door, and walked in.

Chen Xueru looked towards the door and saw He Yuzhu walking in with a tray.

Surprise flashed in her eyes, and a smile spread across her face: "Brother Zhuzi!"

He Yuzhu was extremely delighted to see the beautiful woman and quickly brought the dishes in his hand to the table.

"Xue Ru, come and try the food I made for you."

He pulled a chair over and sat next to her, handed her chopsticks, and looked at her quietly.

Chen Xueru took the chopsticks, looked at the dish in front of her, smelled the sweet aroma, turned her head and smiled at him.

"Yeah, Brother Zhuzi, this is very good."

He Yuzhu smiled and said softly, "If it tastes good, eat more. I'll come over and make it for you in a few days."

Chen Xueru nodded while eating.

"Xue Ru, I'm sorry. A friend asked me to help a few days ago, but I forgot to tell you." He Yuzhu said apologetically.

Chen Xueru rolled her eyes at him and swallowed the yam in her mouth: "Brother Zhuzi, what do you think of me? Go and do your job, how can I blame you?"

Her answer made He Yuzhu's eyes light up and he excitedly held her hand.

"Xue Ru, I really love you so much!"

He really didn't expect that Chen Xueru not only did not complain, but her ideas were so in sync.

When Chen Xueru heard his straightforward words, she couldn't help but snort, and her cheeks turned red unconsciously.

I bit the chopsticks in my mouth shyly. The sugar coating on the candied yam had a hint of sweetness, which seemed to sweeten my heart.

An ambiguous atmosphere began to arise, and He Yuzhu held her hand and kissed it.

Chen Xueru's ears turned red and she quickly pulled her hand back.

Although she had seen many such scenes in Gaul, she was still shy today as this was an intimate act with the person she loved.

"Xue Ru, I'm sorry! I couldn't help myself." He Yuzhu thought he had scared her and apologized quickly.

Chen Xueru turned her head away, a little embarrassed to look him in the eye, and said softly, "Brother Zhuzi, I'm just not used to it."

Seeing that she was not disgusted by his action, He Yuzhu's worries disappeared.

Be thick-skinned and eat enough.

He Yuzhu chuckled, reached out and held her hand again, looking at her softly: "Xueru, since you are not used to it, let's get used to it."

Chen Xueru felt the warmth coming from her hand, and her heart couldn't help but warm up, but she still tried to pull her hand back, but found that her hand was held tightly by He Yuzhu and she couldn't break free.

A blush appeared on her face, but this time she was not as shy as before. Instead, she let him hold her hand, with a soft light flashing in her eyes, and looked at the man in front of her quietly.

Chen Xueru put down her chopsticks, stretched out her right hand to cover his hand, and said softly: "Brother Zhuzi, have you shaken enough? I came to you today because I have something important to discuss with you."

He Yuzhu was immediately interested when he heard this, and asked quickly: "Oh, Xueru, has anything happened recently? Has the yard behind the store been taken down?"

Chen Xueru smiled and shook her head, then gently patted the back of his hand, signaling him to let go.

After He Yuzhu let go of her hand, she pulled back her own hand, turned sideways and took out a stack of manuscript paper from her handbag beside her.

She handed the manuscripts to He Yuzhu, her eyes full of pride and pride: "Brother Zhuzi, take a look at these design manuscripts. I drew them myself according to the ideas you gave me last time."
