Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

Seeing that he only asked to be the chef and prepare a banquet, He Yuzhu thought it was a trivial matter and nodded in agreement.

"That's no problem. What day exactly? So I can arrange the time."

Seeing He Yuzhu agreed so readily, Lou Zhenhua smiled more sincerely: "Next weekend at noon, do you think there is any problem?"

"There's no problem with the time. I just need to tell my master in advance. But..." He Yuzhu frowned slightly and paused.

Lou Zhenhua mistakenly thought that He Yuzhu was worried about the food, and waved his hand generously: "Zhuzi, don't worry about that, the food will be ready. I'm not that embarrassed yet."

He Yuzhu shook his head when he heard this and said softly, "That's not the matter. It's just that at noon, some dishes need to be cooked in advance, so they can't be made."

"Haha, so that's why. Have you forgotten your Aunt Tan? She rarely cooks and her cooking is not very good, but she still knows how to do these."

When He Yuzhu was reminded of this, he instantly remembered the relationship and actually forgot about Tan Yali, Lou Xiao'e's mother.

Tan Yali was born in the Tan family. It was because of this connection that He Daqing chose to work for Lou Zhenhua when he left Fengze Garden.

He Yuzhu tapped the table lightly, a frustrated expression on his face and an apologetic tone in his voice.

"Look at my memory. I actually forgot about this. Of course it's no problem for Aunt Tan to help. I'll go there early on the weekend and leave the rest to me."

Noticing the change in He Yuzhu's address, Lou Zhenhua knew that he still cared about the friendship of the Tan family, and nodded slightly: "Zhuzi, let's make it like this."

"Okay, leave this to me." He Yuzhu assured confidently.

Lou Zhenhua was secretly planning in his mind, trying to get closer to He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, we should move around more often in the future. Look at you, you even forgot your Aunt Tan's old job!"

Although He Yuzhu didn't know what he was planning at the moment, he just laughed it off: "It was indeed my negligence. I will definitely do it next time."

"I remember you have a younger sister named Yu Shui, right? She's a few years younger than Xiao E, so you can bring her over to play with us.

In the past few years since you left Sijiu City, the city has changed a lot. You can ask Xiao'e to take her for a walk."

Lou Zhenhua mentioned it casually, "By the way, you two were still young a few years ago, why did you leave? That was too dangerous."

He Yuzhu listened to him for a while and sensed the tentative meaning in Lou Zhenhua's words. He responded vaguely.

"Hey, I'm just a cook. If there's a good job, I'll go and work there for a few years. It's just the right opportunity to broaden my horizons. Look, my cooking skills have improved a lot."

Lou Zhenhua was a little disappointed when he saw that He Yuzhu did not reveal much information.

He Yuzhu doesn't seem like a rookie who has just started out. He had hoped to get some unexpected gains, but it seems that's impossible.

He took the opportunity to praise: "Zhu Zi, I think your skills are top-notch in the city. How much are you earning in the restaurant now?"

He Yuzhu looked at him with confusion. Was he planning to spend more money and follow him like He Daqing did before?

Lou Zhenhua’s current network of relationships is not at a very high level, so I don’t think he knows about Chief Chen’s affairs.

Ignore this, Wu Zhaoxiong is He Yuzhu's master, which is no better than being the canteen director of a steel mill.

Today's steel mills are still standing, and there is no public-private partnership. Emei Restaurant is a model of public-private partnership in Xicheng District, which is incomparable in today's era.

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu bowed and declined: "I haven't graduated yet, it's good to work under the master. If there is anything, just tell the master. The freedom is suitable for me."

Lou Zhenhua slapped his forehead and showed an apologetic expression: "See, I forgot all this, and it is right! Haha, then we are even. I will be looking forward to your delicious food next week!"

After saying that, he picked up the teacup at hand, and hearing his refusal, he directly served the tea to see the guest off.

He Yuzhu also stood up tactfully and bowed: "Okay, then I'll go say hello to my master now."

After finishing work early, He Yuzhu rode his bicycle towards the old Guan family house that he had previously bought.

After the street office exchanged the yard, he was busy in the kitchen these days and had not had time to check on the progress of the renovation of the house.

When Chen Xueru came back at the beginning of the year, He Yuzhu asked her to contact a professional construction team to renovate the old house as a residence for them after marriage.

This time I got another small yard. I first asked the construction team for the price, and built it in advance if the price was right.

When Yu Shui graduated, I renovated the courtyard and gave it to her, and the title deed was also registered in her name.

After more than half an hour, He Yuzhu arrived at the alley where the house was located.

When he saw the brand new, bright gate for the first time, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, and his face suddenly changed.

"Fuck!"

He slammed the brakes and stared at the gate with wide eyes.

The Guangliang Gate has changed a lot. It has a clear ridge roof, brand new tiles, a plum blossom-shaped door pin that is unique and elegant, and the little lions carved on the door piers are lifelike.

The large wooden hoop-shaped painted bundles on the entire gate of the house are colorful and very impactful. Anyone who sees them cannot help but admire the exquisite craftsmanship.

But what era is it now? Even a man of iron wouldn't dare to do such a fancy thing!

This was not done for Chief Chen's yard, but it was arranged first for the yard where He Yuzhu lived.

For a moment, he had no mood to appreciate it. He just felt a headache and rushed in in a hurry.

Walking up the stairs, He Yuzhu saw the pattern on the screen wall, which made his veins pop out.

He leaned the bicycle against the wall and continued running inside.

The more beautiful hanging flower gate came into view, and He Yuzhu held his forehead with one hand.

"Where are the people? Is the person in charge here?" He Yuzhu rushed into the yard and shouted loudly, his voice echoing in the yard.

Just as he finished speaking, several people came out from the north room.

The middle-aged man in the lead, wearing a hat made of newspaper, looked at the angry He Yuzhu and walked forward with some caution.

"Who are you, sir?"

Seeing that several people were led by him, He Yuzhu let out a long sigh and calmed down.

He looked around and saw that the whole yard had been completely renovated, with the oil painting and color painting completed.

"I am He Yuzhu, the owner of this house."

Hearing him introduce himself, the middle-aged man obviously knew his identity and quickly bowed.

"I didn't know the boss was coming. I'm sorry for neglecting you. My last name is Kuai, and I'm in charge of this renovation project."

"Master Kuai, has Xueru come to see the effect?" He Yuzhu bowed in return and asked hurriedly.

Master Kuai turned around and looked at the decorations in the courtyard. He didn't find anything wrong and was a little confused: "Of course, we just followed Boss Chen's instructions."

He Yuzhu was choked by his words and scratched his head: "Well... I see your craftsmanship is beyond reproach, is there any way to make it look more worn out?"

He had already made up his mind to teach Chen Xueru a lesson when he got back. It was not a good thing to be so high-profile when you have money.

Master Kuai was also confused by this request, but he nodded: "My family has been doing this for generations, so there will definitely be no problem with the technology."

He Yuzhu is not in the mood to build a small courtyard now, so he will first break up this courtyard and then think about other things.

He waved his hand and immediately said, "Stop painting those that haven't been painted yet. Rework those that have been painted as required. I'll make up the difference, so go ahead and do it."

Hearing that price was not an issue, Master Kuai didn't mind this strange request. As long as there was work to do, he nodded in agreement.
