Siheyuan: Me! He Yuzhu defies fate and changes destiny
Chapter 37: Display of Skills
He Daqing nodded and took a seat. He picked up his chopsticks and tasted the simple home-cooked meal in front of him. As soon as he put his mouth into it, he could feel the infinite deliciousness of the meal.
He Daqing gave his son a thumbs up and said, "What an extraordinary technique!" Seeing his daughter's expectant look, he smiled and said, "It tastes really good!"
After receiving the recognition, Yu Shui announced excitedly,
“See, I’m not exaggerating, it’s really delicious!”
They dined together, and all enjoyed the delicious food.
Even He Daqing, who had been in the kitchen for a long time, enjoyed the meal very much. Looking at his son He Daqing across from him, he praised again: "Zhuzi, it would be a waste if you don't go into the culinary world with your cooking skills!" He Yuzhu said.
"Now I am not short of money. Although my cooking skills have improved rapidly, I don't want to spend my whole life cooking. I want to do something more meaningful." He Daqing looked at He Yuzhu and couldn't understand his idea at all. In He Daqing's view, only a wife and children and a warm bed are meaningful, and everything else is just busywork. But now he can't control He Yuzhu, and he doesn't want to interfere anymore.
After dinner, He Yuzhu cleaned up the table, and He Daqing said, "Shazhu, come here for a moment. I have something to tell you."
He Yuzhu stood up and walked into the room, only to see He Daqing take out a box from his bag and hand it to He Yuzhu.
"Keep this thing. It's left to you by your mother for your wife to use in the future. I didn't give it to you when you were young. Now that it's in your hands, you must cherish it."
He Yuzhu took it and put it away, saying, "Okay, I know, I will keep it properly." He opened the box and saw a pair of bracelets. Although the style was old, it was extremely precious to ordinary people. He Yuzhu did not dislike it and planned to put it in his secret place later.
Then He Daqing said, "As for the money I have, I won't give it to you. I want to find a matchmaker to introduce me to a date in a few days. Do you think it's suitable?"
Hearing this, He Yuzhu smiled bitterly in his heart. This father is really unreliable. He has only been back for a while and he is already thinking about finding a partner. But he didn't say anything. If He Daqing can find a partner and move out to live, he will also feel at ease. After all, He Daqing is not yet forty, and it is not appropriate for him to be single all the time. So, He Yuzhu nodded and said:
"Okay, you decide for yourself. It's also good to find a partner. You can keep your own money." He Daqing nodded sullenly, and then said:
"Silly Zhu, how about I get married here?" Hearing this, He Yuzhu curled his lips helplessly:
"No, you should find a new wife and move to another place. Nowadays, unmarried girls are almost my age. If we go on a blind date, who would agree to marry you when they see that we are almost the same age? I will be eighteen during the Chinese New Year. What if they don't agree then? Who would agree to marry me when they see how old I am and have a son as old as me? It's more realistic for you to move out. But remember one thing, don't look for a widow anymore. If you become a helper, don't come back!"
Hearing these words, He Daqing nodded frequently. Thinking that he could find a young woman, he naturally didn't want to find a divorced woman. After all, they were all men, and everyone preferred new rather than second-hand.
After hearing what He Yuzhu said, He Daqing also understood that if someone like him really went on a blind date, the blind date partner would definitely favor He Yuzhu over him. He would be in a passive position. So He Daqing nodded and said, "Okay, if the blind date is successful, I will move back!"
He Yuzhu frowned slightly after hearing what He Daqing said. When talking about those who lived in the courtyard, He Yuzhu said:
"I was working at Hongbinlou, and Yi Zhonghai came to see me. At that time, I said that I went to Tianjinwei to learn skills and took Yu Shui with me. Since you want to go back, just say so.
If you want to see the rain, you can come to us during the holidays.
I don't plan to go back, otherwise I will have to deal with all kinds of troubles. You should also be careful of Yi Zhonghai. You know what to do when you go back, right? "
He Daqing nodded and said, "I understand. I have been married to Widow Bai for two years, but she didn't give me a child. I didn't want to continue, so I divorced her and came back here.
And you will say that you will learn cooking skills outside for a few years before coming back." He Yuzhu agreed: "Okay, that's fine, let's make plans after the New Year, anyway it's less than a month away.
After you go back after the New Year, you can ask the matchmaker for help. Give her more money and the matchmaker will introduce you to a good girl.
If the deal goes through, we can register for marriage. It doesn't matter to me, but you have to treat my sister well, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Hearing this, He Daqing realized that He Yuzhu was living a much better life than he was. He still had to rely on his son in his later years, so he didn't dare to object. Besides, he loved He Yushui in the past, so he nodded and said, "No problem."
He Yuzhu said, "Well, just keep it in mind, I won't say any more.
Let's go to bed early, I have some things to do tomorrow. I'll help you get a bicycle so you can go shopping."
He Yuzhu didn't have many daily necessities. His private storehouse was mainly filled with treasures, antiques, banknotes, grain, meat and oil. These are very common things now. But two years later, when the tickets began to circulate, these things could not be bought even if you had money.
In this era, most cooking oil was still lard, and vegetable oil was relatively scarce and expensive, making it difficult to buy. Therefore, he stored nearly 3,000 kilograms of lard in his warehouse.
The things stored in the warehouse will not be damaged, and they will remain the same as they were when put in, so he did not limit the storage quantity and just put in everything he had.
Looking at He Yushui and other clothes, He Yuzhu thought he could stock up on some cloth for future use. But since He Yuzhu was just a cook and didn't have any reliable cloth merchants, he hadn't found anyone to sell cloth privately yet.
Thinking about this, He Yuzhu decided to go to the market in the next few days.
He Daqing had just woken up and was preparing to cook for the children. He saw He Yuzhu and He Yushui standing outside. Although Yushui was young, she was still quite plump and stood in a very standard manner.
Then, He Yuzhu took He Yushui to practice martial arts and fighting methods. As for the theoretical content, He Yuzhu was not in a hurry to teach He Yushui for the time being. The most important thing at the moment was to ensure her safety. At this time, He Daqing came over and asked He Yuzhu:
"Zhuzi, what are you and Yushui doing?" He Yuzhu replied:
"I have a martial arts master as my teacher, and now I am teaching Yu Shui martial arts. After all, the current social environment is very turbulent, and I want her to have the ability to protect herself."
After listening to He Yuzhu's words, He Daqing did not raise any objections and said, "Okay, you two continue practicing, I'll go prepare breakfast for you." He Yuzhu shook his head and said:
"No, I've already made it. Let's eat together after we finish practicing."
After breakfast, He Yuzhu told He Daqing: "Dad, you stay at home with Yushui, I'm going out for a while." Before He Daqing could ask where he was going, He Yuzhu had already ridden away. Seeing that He Yuzhu had gone out, He Daqing asked He Yushui about the situation:
"Yushui, do you know where your brother went?" He Yushui shrugged:
"I don't know, why does it matter where he goes? As long as there's good food!"
Hearing this, He Daqing didn't know how to respond. However, He Yushui didn't care about this matter.
When he arrived at the designated mailbox, he checked the information and found that the destination was Zhengyangmen. At this time, He Yuzhu realized that the man named Zhang the Butcher chose different locations each time not for confidentiality, but for convenience. Even so, He Yuzhu still arrived at Zhengyangmen according to the address and found the target location.
This time, He Yuzhu didn't pay attention to the surrounding environment and started to clean up the meat. Unexpectedly, Zhang the butcher prepared two cows for him. When he was about to leave after finishing the cleaning, he suddenly heard someone talking:
"Xue Ru, please promise me!" The other side responded:
"Brother Hou San, please, I can't do this. I'm still so young. Please don't do this, okay?" Hou San continued:
"Xueru, believe me, I'm not a bad person. But... well, how can I put it? You have to believe me. I actually traveled from the future. Although I am an enemy spy now, I will not do this job from now on. In another six or seven years, society will be open and developed. At that time, I will definitely help you get rich. At that time, it will be as easy as picking up money on the road. I will definitely make you live a happy life!" Xueru continued to plead:
"Third brother, if you are confused, don't worry, if you let me go, I won't reveal the secret that you are an enemy spy, okay? Please, let me go!"
"Xue Ru, you don't believe me, do you? This is all the information I have sorted out in the past few days, proving that my prediction is correct. In two years, the country will issue the second version of currency, and the exchange rate will be 10,000 to 1, which means that 10,000 yuan can be exchanged for one yuan, and the prices will be reduced. The future economy will be transformed into a planned economy, and you will need vouchers to buy things at that time. Even if you are rich, you will not be able to buy anything!"
Hearing this, He Yuzhu didn't expect that this Third Brother Hou was actually a time traveler, and tragically became an enemy spy. In that era, would the enemy spy have a good end?
Hou San? Or Hou Kui?
Could it be that Chen Xueru’s ex-husband who ran away was actually this Hou San?
And he's a **. No wonder Chen Xueru never mentioned her ex-husband in the original TV series.
It turns out that he is an enemy spy!
What about the future events recorded in that notebook?
No wonder this young woman Chen Xueru can always grasp the pulse of the times and become a strong woman in the business world.
You know, Chen Xueru's status in this era is not high, but she can always get through every critical moment safely.
And her ability to become a career woman in the end was also closely related to this Hou San.
With guidance from someone from the future, even a mortal can achieve something.
It seemed that Chen Xueru had not been harmed by Hou San before he arrived. Just as He Yuzhu was thinking, he heard Hou Sange say:
"Xue Ru, you have to trust me. Don't worry, I will be very gentle..."
Chen Xueru screamed and was about to shout, but then there was a muffled sound. He Yuzhu realized that her mouth was blocked.
He quickly put away his bicycle, used his skills to jump over the courtyard wall, and rushed straight to the house where the sound came from.
Boom!
He Yuzhu kicked the door open.
At this moment, Hou San was trying to strip Chen Xueru of her clothes, but because it was winter and she wore many clothes, and he needed to cover Chen Xueru's mouth with one hand, he only tore open her clothes to reveal a little bit of her shoulder skin.
