Siheyuan: Rebirth of Shazhu, Many Children and Blessings

Lou Xiao'e wore a white dress called "Bugila" with a rose pattern and a pair of white sandals like this on her feet.

She had two braids and tied two ribbons at the ends of her hair in the same color and pattern as her skirt.

This was the most fashionable dress at the time.

What's more, she is already beautiful, and this kind of dress is even more eye-catching.

It was like a bunch of fiery red roses that burst directly into He Yuzhu's heart.

He Yuzhu was stunned on the spot, and only came to his senses when Director Yang introduced him.

After seeing Lou Xiao'e looking at him curiously, He Yuzhu immediately reacted and greeted her politely.

"Hello, female comrade. My name is He Yuzhu. I'm 26 years old and I'm a chef at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill!"

"Ahem." Looking at He Yuzhu's blind date-like introduction, Director Yang held back his laughter and gave a hint.

"Comrade He Yuzhu, there is no need to explain it in such detail."

Lou Xiao'e smiled brightly and said generously, "Hello Comrade He Yuzhu, my name is Lou Xiao'e, and I just graduated from high school."

He Yuzhu looked at Lou Xiao'e's smile and his heart trembled.

In the past, he never understood why some people fell in love at first sight, but now he has a personal experience.

Every frown and smile of Lou Xiao'e touched his heart, making him want to get closer to her.

He Yuzhu used a lot of willpower to avoid losing face in front of the beauty.

"Xiao'e, where is your father?"

"My father is in the study. Uncle Yang, let me take you there." Lou Xiao'e invited the two into the house.

"No need, I can find it." Director Yang smiled slightly, "Please take Master He to the kitchen to familiarize himself with it."

"Okay, Uncle Yang." Lou Xiao'e looked at He Yuzhu and walked towards the kitchen.

"Master He, please follow me."

"Oh, here I come." He Yuzhu immediately followed closely behind Lou Xiao'e.

Naturally, he was eager to have some time alone with Lou Xiao'e.

Lou Zhenhua had already told Lou Xiao'e that there would be guests at home tonight and that there would be a special chef to cook.

So she was not surprised by He Yuzhu's arrival.

But what surprised her was that her father would find such a young chef to cook at home.

You know, the chefs her father hired before were basically old masters.

What's more, she heard that He Yuzhu could actually cook the Tan family dishes that her mother knew how to cook.

“I didn’t expect that Master He is already a great chef at such a young age.”

"No, I'm not young anymore." He Yuzhu smiled and scratched his head, "I just started learning skills earlier."

"That's also Master He's ability. Many people have studied for many years but are still just apprentices."

Although Lou Xiao'e had not had much exposure to these things, Tan Yali had told her a lot about being an apprentice.

"Where did Master He serve as an apprentice before?"

"Fengze Garden. I followed my father to Fengze Garden to learn art."

"So your father is also a chef! No wonder." Lou Xiao'e nodded thoughtfully.

But He Yuzhu went on to say: "After my father left, I went to Hongbinlou to learn art again."

"I'm sorry, I didn't know." Lou Xiao'e thought He Yuzhu's father had passed away, and felt a little guilty for a moment.

"Hey, this happened many years ago. Besides, many people know about it." He Yuzhu looked indifferent.

Anyway, he has no feelings for He Daqing, so he won't have any emotional fluctuations when it is mentioned.

As they talked, they walked to the kitchen. "My mother has been looking forward to your coming. She can't handle it alone."

"My mother was so happy when she heard that there is a chef like you who can cook Tan's cuisine."

"When I heard Mr. Lou say that the day before yesterday, I was also very happy. I finally had the opportunity to ask the chef for advice."

"Mom, Master He is here!" Lou Xiao'e shouted to the woman inside as soon as she entered the kitchen.

Tan Yali looked He Yuzhu up and down obscurely, and said with a kind smile: "Master He, I am looking forward to your coming soon."

"Hello, Mrs. Lou." He Yuzhu also greeted with a smile.

"Don't be polite, let's get started." Tan Yali called He Yuzhu to the stove.

Most of the Tan family dishes are based on roasting, stewing, simmering, roasting and steaming, which is very time-consuming, so Tan Yali has actually done a lot of preparation work.

He Yuzhu walked forward, looked at the side dishes prepared by Tan Yali, and accurately named a few of them.

When Tan Yali heard this, she immediately became happy, "Master He is indeed an expert!"

"I'm sorry to show off my skills in front of Mrs. Lou." He Yuzhu smiled modestly.

"Master He, don't be so modest. You can tell whether someone is an expert or not just by hearing him open his mouth," said Tan Yali.

“To be honest, I was actually worried the entire time, and I only let it go just now.

Although we are preparing together now, when the guests arrive later, the main task will still fall on you. "

"No problem. You can go ahead and do your work. I'll just have to trouble you to give me some instructions."

"I am confident in Master He's cooking skills!" Tan Yali showed an expression of great trust.

In this way, He Yuzhu and Tan Yali were busy in the kitchen.

Lou Xiao'e would come over from time to time to take a look and ask if there was anything she could help with.

This situation continued until other guests arrived.

"Xiao'e, help Master He in the kitchen for a while. Mom will go out to receive the guests."

Tan Yali gave instructions to Lou Xiaoe before she went out.

He Yuzhu originally wanted to refuse, but swallowed the words back when they were on the tip of his tongue.

This is one of the few opportunities to be alone with Lou Xiao'e.

"Okay, Mom." Lou Xiao'e also agreed readily.

She wasn't very familiar with the uncles and aunts who came this time, so she was happy to stay in the kitchen.

"Master He, is there anything I can help you with?" Lou Xiao'e walked up to He Yuzhu and asked.

He Yuzhu smiled as the fragrance wafted over.

"Comrade Lou, I'm the only one who can take care of the kitchen. You don't have to do anything."

"But my mother gave me a task to help you." Lou Xiao said coquettishly.

"Then just sit here and chat with me for a while." He Yuzhu said with a smile.

"Okay." Lou Xiao'e sat on a small stool nearby and asked, "Does Master He often go to other people's homes to cook?"

"No, I am grateful to the leaders for their appreciation, so I occasionally go to some leaders' homes to do it."

"Master He, do you like cooking? I don't have the talent and I can never make delicious dishes." Lou Xiao'e sighed.

“So I never experienced the joy of cooking.”
