Siheyuan: Cooking journey

He was very hesitant about this, fearing that it would cause trouble.

But on second thought, there should be more advanced heating furnaces in China, at least at the level of the 1960s.

A slight upgrade of the heating furnace in the steel rolling mill should not be a big problem or too noticeable.

We can't set up another innovation team. Director Yang can't go asking for help again. The stainless steel that we got with great difficulty will just sit there and rust.

He Yuzhu thought about it and decided to do it.

Of course we can't act directly. We have to be cautious and find two people to take the blame. One is Director Yang, and the other is an old man. It would be a pity not to use a talent at the eighth-level fitter level.

Having made up his mind, He Yuzhu said directly: "Do you still have the drawings of the heating furnace? Bring them to me."

"If there is any, it's all in the bottom of the box."

Director Yang looked at him and asked in confusion, "What do you want the drawings for?"

"It can be used for burning fire. It won't be used anyway." He Yuzhu said sincerely and half-jokingly.

"It's weird. What are you planning?" Director Yang looked puzzled.

"Is such that……"

Director Yang still had to take the blame, and He Yuzhu didn't hide it from him, telling the truth: "I used to cook for extra money, and I met an old professor, an expert who came back from abroad, and I wanted to ask him to see if he could modify the heating furnace of the steel mill. Of course, his help would not be in vain. The old professor is quite stubborn and only recognizes Moutai and not people, but he is reliable. Even if he can't upgrade, he can definitely improve it, at least better than it is now."

"Really?"

Director Yang clenched his fists and banged his palms twice. He thought for a moment, as if he had made up his mind, and nodded sharply: "How much Moutai do you need?"

He Yuzhu smiled and held up three fingers. "3 bottles?"

"30 boxes, installment payment is available."

"..."

Director Yang turned around and left without saying a word.

30 boxes of Moutai, it's worth it even if I drink myself to death, what's the problem with that?

Director Yang slipped away very quickly.

He Yuzhu didn't take it too seriously. At worst, he could change it to selling 29 boxes tomorrow.

This old professor is just a cover.

They are not afraid of being exposed. There are a lot of old professors like this who have returned to China in the city.

Having a cover will save you some trouble.

You can't just expose the truth and say directly that cooking is just a hobby and that you are actually a scientist.

How stupid that is.

The more high-profile you are at this time, the harder you will fall when the storm comes.

No matter what happens, let's wait until the storm is over.

Now you have to be more careful in everything you do and put on more layers of disguise.

After the heating furnace was renovated, the old professor disappeared and no one knew where he moved to.

Anyway, he is an authentic chef and he doesn't even have an elementary school diploma, but others still insist that he comes from a scientific family.

after get off work.

He Yuzhu and Lou Xiao'e changed their clothes and went to Lou's house.

When I said I changed clothes, I actually just changed into a clean set of work clothes.

Gradually getting used to this era, He Yuzhu also gradually understood that, as a worker, work clothes are the most respectable attire, a symbol of holding one's head high and chest out, and any Zhongshan suit is redundant.

......

Arrived at Lou’s house.

He Yuzhu took the initiative to go into the kitchen and start busying himself.

No one paid any attention to the boss of the Lou family, and he just drank tea alone.

As soon as Lou Xiao'e got home, she went upstairs with Lou's mother.

in the room.

Lou Xiao'e's cheeks flushed and she lowered her head in silence. She didn't expect that her mother would ask her about this as soon as she came back, and she was too embarrassed to speak up.

"Tell me what day it is."

Mother Lou was a little anxious. Suddenly, as if she remembered something, she couldn't help but laugh and joke:

"No way, you two are still fighting over the quilt after being married for so long?"

"No."

Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but refute. She lowered her head like a little quail and whispered shyly, "The next night."

"That's it."

Mother Lou smiled and asked again, "How far have you come?"

"third step."

Lou Xiao'e lowered her head even lower. When her mother asked this question, everything that happened that night came flooding back to her mind, and she felt extremely embarrassed.

"Xiao He is a good man."

Mother Lou smiled even more and asked with concern:

"Have you felt nauseous or vomited recently? It's easiest to get pregnant right after you get married."

"mom……"

Lou Xiao'e glanced at her with a red face and muttered softly:

"No, didn't you say that that means you're not pregnant? I've only been there a few days."

"oops……"

Mother Lou looked regretful. After thinking about it, she felt something was wrong and said doubtfully:

"Logically speaking, she should be pregnant..."

After that, Lou's mother leaned in and whispered a few words.

Lou Xiao'e's face instantly turned red all the way to her ears, and she was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to hide in.

Mother Lou couldn't help but find it funny when she looked at her.

"Just tell me, there's nothing to be shy about. You're not a child anymore."

"This is too embarrassing, can you not say it?"

Lou Xiao'e lowered her head shyly and didn't want to mention it. It was too embarrassing.

"Girl, what can't we talk about? Have you forgotten who you learned this from?"

Mother Lou smiled kindly and said, "Tell me now, this is for your own good."

Lou Xiao'e hesitated for a long time, then whispered something in her ear with a red face.

"Ouch……"

Mother Lou was surprised, and took her hand distressedly, asking with concern:

"Are you not feeling well? It's your mother's fault for not telling you clearly in advance. If you feel uncomfortable, you can refuse. Silly girl, why don't you know how to take care of yourself? You can't just follow Xiao He's words and follow his wishes in everything."

"It's not that uncomfortable, it's okay..."

Lou Xiaoe bit her lip and whispered a few more words in her ear shyly.

"This……"

Mother Lou frowned in confusion, feeling that something was wrong and was very puzzled.

After thinking about it carefully, I felt that maybe my daughter had a good physique and recovered quickly. After all, everyone is different.

Looking at my daughter, I found that she was in good spirits.

Mother Lou no longer worried about this matter. She suddenly remembered that the key lies with the man, and the woman naturally has the advantage.

In contrast, she was more worried about another thing and said in confusion:

"If it's really as you said, it's even more wrong. You should have been pregnant a long time ago."

"Mom, don't mention this."

Lou Xiao'e wrinkled her nose shyly and said nonchalantly:

"The old man and woman in our yard have lived a good life without having children for decades. We have just been married for a short time. Besides, I don't want to have children yet."

"You silly girl, you keep saying these unlucky words."

Mother Lou glared at her with a stern face and said earnestly:

"You think it's good not to have children? You'll be lonely and helpless when you're old, and no one will take care of you. Now that you're married, Mom doesn't expect anything else from you. One child a year, two in three years, three in five years, and then you can just take care of your husband and children peacefully..."

"mom……"

Lou Xiao'e didn't want to hear this, so she hugged her arm and whispered in her ear:

"Let's not talk about this for now. I still need your help. He Yuzhu is like a puppy, always biting my forehead... and before... can you talk to him..."
