Chapter 1794 Good Man

Old Sun looked at Sha Zhu, making him feel uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to speak and could only watch from the side.

"He Yuzhu, the team leader said that we will be showing a movie in the village tonight and we need to entertain the projectionist. He asked you to go to the team headquarters to help cook!"

"You must perform well and live up to the captain's trust!"

Old Sun remembered the important matter, finished his words, and left Sha Zhu, who was confused, behind.

Sha Zhu finally figured out what was going on. Thinking about the two hedgehogs he caught in the fields today, he decided that he should be the one to cook.

As soon as I heard the word "projectionist", I immediately thought of Xu Damao.

Later I realized that Sha Mao didn't even know where to operate the sewing machine.

I felt inexplicably relieved. At least I could still look around, which was much better than Sha Mao.

It was not until he heard the prisoners shouting from behind that Sha Zhu came to his senses and walked back.

"You are such a hypocrite, but you still have to beg me for mercy!"

After Lao Sun left, Sha Zhu was unhappy at the thought of cooking for these guys, but reality did not allow him to refuse. If he did not do it, it would be more difficult for him to live in this housekeeper's farm in the future.

What's more, since I've shown my face, who knows, such good things may happen again in the future!

When it comes to cooking, Shazhu is super smart!
Back at the field, Sha Zhu picked up the sickle and felt as if he was holding a shovel or a spoon. He felt more energetic when cutting the wheat.

He even got used to Ma Ergu's nagging behind him, and his speed increased a lot.

The conversation between the two people was heard by the people around them, and immediately many villagers started talking about it.

"Have you heard about this? We have to cook for the village cadres tonight!"

"I heard that Monkey King came over and said that Captain Zhang specifically asked him to be the hedgehog to entertain the projectionist!"

"No way, a guy who can't even hold a sickle properly, can cook?"

Several people were discussing, their hearts full of doubts.

At this time, someone came over. Everyone saw that it was Old Zhang from the village, who was also a relative of Team Zhang and often visited the team headquarters.

Seeing Old Zhang coming, everyone hurried to ask for news.

Old Zhang also enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded by people, so he sat in the crowd, holding a cigarette leaf rolled with notebook paper in his hand, and the smoke was all gray.

"This He Yuzhu is no ordinary person. I heard that he has a nickname, Shazhu."

"Let's not talk about whether he's stupid or not, but this guy is indeed a famous chef in the steel mill in the old city, and he even prepares banquets for people."

"For weddings and funerals, every family has two tables. The cooks here are really skilled!"

"But this person not only has a foul mouth and loves to offend people, he doesn't even give face to the leaders, and has offended many people."

"Also, this guy eats all by himself. This factory cafeteria is a lucrative place. Usually, there are a lot of leftovers after meals. Most people would share the leftovers with the kitchen helpers. Everyone has old and young, so taking the leftovers back is considered a welfare."

"This guy is so good, he took all the good things away by himself, and didn't give benefits to his subordinates. Who would want to pay attention to him?"

"So after all this time, who have you seen come to see him?"

"I guess he can't go back in this life, so the village chief and captain ignored him. If he really dares to attack, the village has plenty of ways to deal with him."

Old Zhang told everyone the news he heard from Zhang Dayou, and everyone then suddenly understood.

Regardless of anything else, this guy really knows how to cook!

"Old Zhang, is this cook really that popular?"

Someone asked curiously, holding a pitchfork.

At this time, many people gathered around, including many men and women.

Shen Cuihua knew more about Sha Zhu, but she also followed behind him at this time.

"Humph, you don't even need to tell me that!"

"Do the Eighth Member know?"

"This cook is the cook. What do you think? Is it delicious?"

"Let me tell you, that's a steel mill. Now it's said to be renamed a machinery factory. It's a big factory. There are more people in its cafeteria than in our village."

“With so many people eating, they can handle it!”

Old Zhang finished smoking the tobacco in his hand, threw the yellow paper wet with saliva on the ground, and then licked his lips.

"And you don't know, that guy is so strong, do you think he eats badly?"

Everyone looked at Sha Zhu who was bending over to cut wheat again, and nodded one by one.

"He must have eaten a lot of oily food!"

Someone sighed, and immediately his stomach began to growl.

The people around him nodded, "That's right, if you eat a piece of meat from the same pot, you can be full."

Everyone swallowed their saliva unconsciously after hearing this. Eating meat to your heart's content was something that could only happen in dreams.

"Then why did this guy come to our village?"

"Of course I made a mistake!"

"It's a fool for this man not to take such a good job!"

"Or you can call me Shazhu. You know what, this is the right nickname!"

Everyone laughed and joked, and several women gathered together to inquire about Sha Zhu's situation.

"A lot of things can be left behind when cooking. The Wang family cooked rabbits before, and I heard that most of the beans were taken home!"

"Humph, that was something she didn't do on purpose. You know what those people are like..."

"That's true, but this really leaves a lot of things behind!"

"Guarantee!"

"You said this, you idiot..."

Several women were chattering, not shying away from others. Old Zhang snorted coldly when he saw this, "Put away all your thoughts. This guy has committed a crime, not to mention that he has a family in the city. Stop messing around."

"Okay, get to work, don't delay the harvest!"

Old Zhang stood up and left after saying this, and the crowd then dispersed.

Shen Cuihua followed a group of women and knew in her heart that this was the beginning of Zhang Dayou's plan.

Unexpectedly, the opportunity came as soon as I finished speaking!

Thinking of this, Shen Cuihua recalled the past when that bastard did not follow the right path and caused her so much suffering.

This time, just consider it as returning it.

As night fell, the ox cart pulled the wheat back to the threshing ground. Sha Zhu followed behind, picking up wheat ears along the way and walking slowly.

The truth is, the place where he lives makes him not interested in going home.

Fortunately, there is a show tonight, so I can stay a little longer!
When he arrived at the brigade headquarters, Sha Zhu walked straight in, and then he saw a machine placed on one side of the yard, with someone watching it nearby.

Since the machinery factory was upgraded to a directly affiliated department, the Propaganda Department no longer undertakes the task of screening films in the countryside, so the projectionist who came this time was not from the machinery factory.

Shazhu went to the window and took a look. It was a stranger, whom he didn't recognize.

But seeing this man chatting and laughing with the village chief and Team Leader Zhang, there was a basket on the wall next to him, which was bulging with stuff, so it must be a local specialty. Sha Zhu couldn't help but think of Xu Damao.

That bastard, he is also able to make a living in this way.

With a curl of his lips, he saw Lao Sun coming over, "He Yuzhu, hurry up, the fire is already on in the kitchen!"

"I know, I know. Why are you rushing me? It's not even dark yet!"

Sha Zhu muttered impatiently, as if there was nothing he was afraid of when it came to cooking.

Ignoring Lao Sun, Sha Zhu went straight to the kitchen.

Old Sun was almost unable to react after being choked by Sha Zhu.

How dare this guy, who is usually bullied, treat him like this?
If anyone doesn't curry favor with him as the warehouse manager, it would be outrageous!
Looking at Sha Zhu's back as he left, Old Sun said, "If you don't do it well, you'll be in trouble!"

Sha Zhu staggered to the kitchen and as soon as he entered the door he saw a man sitting on a bench, making a fire and boiling water.

When he saw who it was, Sha Zhu's heart skipped a beat.

His gaze lingered on the woman for a moment before he responded.

Shen Cuihua, who was lighting the fire, looked up at Sha Zhu and said, "Here he comes!"

"Ah, ah! Here it comes, here it comes!"

Sha Zhu reacted and laughed, but his eyes involuntarily looked down.

My heart is filled with joy.

"Captain Zhang said you are very capable, so you have to deal with this hedgehog. We dare not touch it!"

Shen Cuihua straightened her body, and Sha Zhu couldn't help but take a glance at the exposed part, making comparisons in his mind.

It’s definitely bigger than Qin Jingru’s.

As for Qin Huairu.

This one might be in between!
However, the one in front of me doesn’t look as white as Qin Huairu, but her skin color is healthier.

Sha Zhu made a quick comparison in his mind, but warned himself in his heart that times are different now.

In the past, I could hide in the cornfield while the movies were playing, but now I can’t do that because I have a wife.

Sha Zhu warned himself, but he didn't stop working. He walked to the side and picked up a hedgehog.

Then he said disdainfully, "This thing is a piece of cake for me."

After saying that, he picked up a kitchen knife beside him, made a knife flower in the air, and began to dismantle it.

Shen Cuihua watched from the side. Sha Zhu's movements were not rough. Even when he was chopping bones, he used his wrists to exert force and barely lifted his arms.

After a while, a hedgehog was dealt with. Shen Cuihua watched from the side and couldn't help applauding.

When Sha Zhu heard the voice, he looked back and saw Shen Cuihua's admiring expression, which made Sha Zhu feel very satisfied.

"We are just getting started now, thinking back to the past..."

While working, Sha Zhu talked about the glorious past and enjoyed the admiration from those around him.

The two of them became more and more engaged in the conversation, as if the slight awkwardness before had become the best lubricant.

When the food was ready, Sha Zhu put some food from each plate into two bowls and left three steamed buns.

Seeing Shen Cuihua full of suspicion, Sha Zhu raised his head and chest and said proudly.

"This is our cook's rule, hard work fee!"

"Take this bowl home in a moment!"

As he said this, he pushed a bowl in front of Shen Cuihua, then carried four dishes and a soup out of the kitchen.

Shen Cuihua was holding a bowl at the back, smiling.

At this moment, I feel more at ease.

This man, I’m determined to get him!
In the room, the village chief, team leader, secretary, warehouse manager, and several other village cadres were talking to the projectionist. When Sha Zhu brought the food, the room was immediately attracted by the aroma.

"Come, come, this is a master chef from the city. Ordinary people can't taste his cooking skills!"

Zhang Dayou looked at the delicious food and knew that he hadn't eaten much in the past few years.

Those good things were wasted.

The village chief was also attracted by the food, and then looked at Sha Zhu, "I didn't expect you to have this skill!"

Sha Zhu was laughing at the side but didn't dare to say anything.

He knows that he has a foul mouth and can offend people if he is not careful.

"Come, have a taste. This is hedgehog meat. It is said that eating it can strengthen a man's body!"

As Zhang Dayou was talking, the projectionist quickly picked up his chopsticks and took a bite. "Hmm, it's just the right amount of salty and a little spicy, not bad!"

Upon hearing this, everyone picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

Zhang Dayou's heart moved, then he stood up, picked up a glass from the side and poured wine into it.

"Chef He, this glass of wine is for your hard work, drink it!"

Sha Zhu couldn't hold it in any longer and quickly reached out to take it, "Okay!"

"Eat slowly and eat as much as you like!"

As he said this, he took the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Zhang Dayou smiled, but felt a little jealous.

From now on, I can’t touch that woman anymore.

This damn cook got a good deal!

But when I thought about this person raising my children in the future, I felt balanced again.

What’s the use of women? Just giving birth to children!
After drinking, Sha Zhu left the house and walked towards the kitchen. When he came back, he saw Shen Cuihua waiting for him.

"What's going on?"

Sha Zhu stepped forward with his bowl in front of him. Shen Cuihua said with a smile, "If you don't come back, I won't dare to take it!"

"What's this? Just take it!"

"But, but I don't dare. If someone sees me on the road, I..."

"I'm a widow, what can others say about me?"

"What's wrong with being a widow? A widow is also a member of the suffering masses and is the one who is in charge!"

Sha Zhu can't stand seeing widows being wronged. Qin Huairu was like that before, and this woman is still like that now!
Hearing Sha Zhu say this, Shen Cuihua felt sweet in her heart. At least this man would not dislike widows.

If it works out in the future, I won’t be afraid that he will treat me badly.

"Well, I'll take it back to you, and we'll go to the movies together after we finish eating!"

"This is not good!"

"What's wrong with that? Come on, I'll take you back!"

As he spoke, Sha Zhu carried two bowls of food out of the door. Seeing this, Shen Cuihua followed him from behind. Looking at Sha Zhu's broad back, she muttered to herself, such a good man must be held on to!
