Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

Chen Xueru keenly noticed the change in Du Defang, but the man surnamed Ou opposite was not very important.

With Du Defang's help and Fatty Hu taking the lead, it is enough to mobilize most people, and that is enough.

“Mr. Du, the head of my family is really just a cook, but he’s very skilled.

Now I am the canteen manager in my company, which means I am a cadre. It is an easy job and it is respectable.”

These words had a completely different effect on the ears of the three people opposite.

Fatty Hu was stunned at first, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.

He didn't expect that Chen Xueru, who was usually strong-willed and resolute, would choose to marry a cook.

You know, in the past, cooks were considered a low-class profession.

It was only in the new society that their social status was improved and they became honored cooks.

Boss Ou had a hint of disdain on his face. Instead, he felt that Chen Xueru was out of her mind to choose a chef for cooperation.

He is more inclined to go out and explore and look for new opportunities.

In comparison, Du Defang appears much calmer.

He has seen a lot and has a better understanding of the system here.

It is not surprising that a cook with good cooking skills can become a director in an organization, but it is a big difference if he can be called a cadre.

Only in units of a high enough level will the canteen director be a real cadre.

He would not believe the cadres Chen Xueru mentioned, as they were just bragging.

If this is the case, he should actively promote the joint venture.

Maybe He Yuzhu's cooking skills were noticed by some important leader, and just a few pointers from him would be an opportunity that they would never be able to obtain.

But don’t forget that the materials that Chen Xueru was able to import to the north a few years ago might be related to He Yuzhui in front of him.

The more Du Defang thought about it, the more he felt that this was the truth, and the smile on his face became even brighter.

"It's true that real people don't show their true colors! Xiao He, you are too modest!"

After praising her, he paused and turned to Chen Xueru, giving her a thumbs up. "Xiao Chen, you have a great eye! No wonder you came from behind to win in business."

He praised He Yuzhu and his wife, which made Chen Xueru in a good mood. She held He Yuzhu's hand and smiled from ear to ear.

It seems that the time is almost up, mainly because Du Defang has changed his position and Chen Xueru doesn't want to delay any longer.

"Mr. Du, thank you for your compliment! Since everyone has come to this point today, I still have a few words to say.

I think everyone here is from the old era, so their feelings should be more profound than mine.

Although you can have wealth with you when you go out, you must be aware of its safety.

If you leave, you will be like a rootless duckweed. People outside are no less vulnerable than Principal Jiang. You must be careful!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Du Defang and Fatty Hu looked calm. After all, they had already decided to form a joint venture, so naturally they would not have this worry.

These words obviously had a greater impact on Boss Ou, as he thought that as long as he had money he could enjoy life anywhere.

At most, you can spend a little more money to buy new property and live your life as usual.

The risks in Chen Xueru's words definitely exist. He is not young and naive. After so many turbulent years, he has seen a lot.

The reality might be even worse than what was mentioned, which made him feel sad.

In a hurry, he thought of sending someone to test the waters first and then transfer the property.

Thinking of this, Boss Ou's brows gradually relaxed, and he secretly planned to start taking care of this matter after he returned.

It has been five or six years now, and the situation is changing unpredictably. I don’t know if Boss Ou can still take his time like this.

Of course Chen Xueru had no idea what he was planning, she just felt that she had done her best.

Going with the general trend, their cooperation has temporarily saved them.

"Everyone, if you are interested in cooperating, you might as well discuss it. Then I can go with you. Everyone, please put your minds at ease."

The purpose of today's banquet was achieved. Du Defang laughed heartily: "Don't worry, Xiao Chen. I will do my best to convince everyone when I go back."

Seeing that he understood what she meant, Chen Xueru smiled happily. They both gained something and were very satisfied.

The banquet ended in a friendly and pleasant atmosphere.

The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the courtyard, and a ray of slanting sunlight quietly slipped into the kitchen, giving it a layer of golden glow.

Five people in the house gathered in the kitchen. The fire on the stove was blazing, and the heat waves were rolling, making the atmosphere in the kitchen even hotter.

He Yuzhu stood in front of the stove, and under the gaze of several people, he skillfully put the steamed dough along the edge of the pot into the hot oil.

The soft dough was instantly swallowed by the hot oil, and then quickly floated to the surface of the oil, sizzling, and an enticing aroma wafted away.

He Yushui stood aside, staring at the oil pan. The aroma seemed to have magical power, making her eyes light up instantly.

She involuntarily took a step forward and looked at the dough rolling in the pan, her eyes full of curiosity.

Yes, He Yuzhu finished his lunch at Fengze Garden at noon and rushed back home.

Considering the long train ride, he thought about making some fast food to take with him in case of emergency.

After leaving the port, the only thing we could eat on the train was the dry black bread.

If I bring some food with me, this long journey will be less painful.

"Brother, can this noodle you mentioned be soaked after being fried?"

He Yushui said that he didn't believe it, but he kept swallowing his saliva, looking eager to try.

He Yuzhu took the prepared wire strainer and deftly scooped the dough out of the oil pan and placed it on a plate aside to cool.

Chen Xueru twitched her nose and couldn't help looking at He Yuzhu: "Brother Zhuzi, is this noodle really like what you said?"

She didn't doubt that this was not edible, but after listening to the description, she keenly discovered the business opportunity and became very interested in it.

He Yuzhu's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a smug smile.

He did this today specifically to attract Chen Xueru's attention, and now it seems that his goal has been achieved.

He Yuzhu put the colander on the plate and turned to look at Chen Xueru.

There was a hint of doubt on her face, but her eyes were flashing with irrepressible anticipation.

"You'll know after you try it. I won't lie to you. I'm not kidding you when I say I'll support you in the future."

As he spoke, He Yushui moved closer to the plate, poked the pancake with his hand, and looked up at He Yuzhu.

"Brother, how can we let my sister-in-law take risks like this? Let me take the lead and try it first!"

After saying this, he held his head high, with an expression that said "I've suffered a loss".

Everyone was amused by her appearance and couldn't help laughing.

He Yuzhu smiled and rubbed her hair, saying helplessly: "You little girl, if I don't let you eat first, I'm afraid you won't feel at ease. Okay, go get the bowl yourself!"

When He Yushui heard this, a bright smile immediately broke out on her face. She turned around excitedly and ran towards the cupboard.
