Siheyuan: I just came across and wanted to chase me away

Gu Nan inadvertently caught a glimpse of Ma Hua not far away, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a friendly smile, then waved at him and shouted: "Ma Hua, come here, I have something to talk to you about."

Gu Nan thought that Ma Hua had indeed helped him last time, but because of the exams, Gu Nan had not been able to take care of him.

Gu Nan is not the kind of person who repays kindness with enmity, so he decided to find an opportunity to teach Ma Hua a lesson.

As for what Ma Hua will do in the future, it has nothing to do with him. If Ma Hua is really in cahoots with He Yuzhu, he will not have any psychological burden in dealing with him then.

Gu Nan looked at Ma Hua. After all, he was still a child and really needed a good education, otherwise he would embark on the path of crime again.

Although Ma Hua has followed He Yuzhu for several years, He Yuzhu has never taught Ma Hua seriously. After all, in He Yuzhu's mind, teaching the apprentice would starve the master.

But Gu Nan never believed this. After all, he felt that if he was really surpassed by them, it would also be an improvement in the overall cooking skills, which would be a good thing.

After all, progress comes from common progress. The progress of one person will only slowly make this craft become a thing of the past, and this is not what Gu Nan wants to see.

Besides, if we are afraid of MCA, then what is the point of our own system? Even if we want to reach Zhong Yi’s level, it will not be achieved in a short time.

After hearing the shout, Ma Hua couldn't help but wonder why he was called here. However, he was honest by nature, so he walked to Gu Nan obediently, looked at him with a slightly puzzled look and asked, "Director Gu, I wonder what you want me to do?"

Gu Nan stared at Ma Hua in front of him and said softly, "Ma Hua, I just want to ask, are you still in touch with He Yuzhu?"

Ma Hua shook his head without hesitation and replied, "Director Gu, to be honest, He Yuzhu and I haven't had any contact for a long time."

Ma Hua had seen clearly from the last time that He Yuzhu was not a good person either. After all, it was the fat man who helped him, but now the fat man is also cleaning the toilet. What's the point of having such a person help him?

Gu Nan stared at Ma Hua's honest and simple face, and sighed in his heart. He knew that people like Ma Hua who were not good at speaking and were introverted would easily suffer losses and be bullied in today's complex and changing social environment.

Just when Gu Nan was thinking about taking Ma Hua in as his disciple, Zhong Yi happened to walk over. He was holding a plate of steaming food and said to Gu Nan excitedly, "Master, this is a new dish that I just researched on my own. Please try it!"

Although Zhong Yi didn't know why his master was talking to Ma Hua, he still wanted his master to taste his real skills.

Seeing this, Gu Nan first asked Ma Hua to leave for the time being, then turned to look at the delicacy in Zhong Yi's hand, nodded with a smile and said: "Okay, I will taste your new achievement."

After Ma Hua left, Gu Nan brought the topic back to Ma Hua. He asked Zhong Yi thoughtfully, "Zhong Yi, in your opinion, what do you think of Ma Hua's character?"

Zhong Yi followed Gu Nan's line of sight and looked in the direction of the door where Ma Hua had just left. After a moment's thought, he responded seriously, "Master, to be honest, Ma Hua is a hardworking kid, and he has a kind heart. He doesn't have any bad intentions."

Gu Nan didn't say anything, but started to taste the dishes cooked by Zhong Yi. They were indeed very good: "Not bad, your cooking skills have improved rapidly. Keep up the hard work."

Zhong Yi stood there with great joy, his face filled with an irrepressible smile. To be recognized by his master was more important than anything else to him! This joy was as brilliant as a flower blooming in spring.

Zhong Yi knew his master's abilities, and even his master praised him, which proved that his cooking skills had really improved.

At this time, Gu Nan, who was standing aside, looked at Zhong Yi who was so excited, and thought to himself that he should give him some appropriate criticism to prevent this kid from getting carried away and not knowing his own limits.

So, Gu Nan straightened his face and said, "However, although the overall performance is good, there are still some minor shortcomings. I will point them out to you in detail later."

Hearing Master's words, Zhong Yi nodded quickly, indicating that he humbly accepted the criticism and looked forward to Master pointing out the problems so that he could improve. Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, he looked up at Gu Nan and asked, "Master, you just asked about Ma Hua. Do you have any other special arrangements?"

Gu Nan nodded slightly and replied with a smile: "Indeed. I see that you don't even have a formal apprentice now, so I want to ask you if you can consider accepting Ma Hua as a disciple. What do you think?"

Gu Nan also wanted to give Zhong Yi an assistant. After all, it was impossible for him to work in the kitchen of a steel mill forever.

I still have to go out and do it myself when the time comes, so Zhong Yi cannot be without an apprentice. This can be considered as a small help to Ma Hua.

Zhong Yi thought for a moment, then responded seriously: "Master, let me test Ma Hua first. If he passes the test, I will accept him as my apprentice. Do you think this is okay?"

Gu Nan couldn't help laughing when he heard that. He looked at Zhong Yi with gentle eyes and said, "Of course there is no problem. It's all up to you to decide. Oh, by the way, my leg injury has not fully recovered yet, so it's not very convenient for me to move. You can go buy some things for me later, because Ran Qiuye and I are getting married soon."

Zhong Yi looked at his master and nodded: "Master, don't worry, I will definitely buy everything you need. I wonder what you need, Master."

Gu Nan took out a piece of paper that he had prepared long ago, wrote down what he needed on it, and handed it to Zhong Yi: "Remember, when you are at the door, remember to register with the security department to avoid being reported, understand?"

Zhong Yi also knew that his master was not only the deputy director of the cafeteria but also an eighth-level fitter. Naturally, he had offended a lot of people, so he had to be careful in everything he did.

Zhong Yi nodded: "Master, don't worry, I will definitely do everything for you, then I will go to cook."

Gu Nan introduced some minor shortcomings of Zhong Yi. Zhong Yi didn't expect that Gu Nan knew everything without even watching him cook. It was really amazing.
