Siheyuan: The happy life of a little chef

When Sha Zhu came out of the security department's small dark room and began to walk slowly towards home, his body ached with every step he took: "Damn it, those bastards in the security department were too ruthless. Next time they come to my place for dinner, I will make sure they shake the spoon for them."

Not long after walking, I saw Yi Zhonghai and the deaf old lady waiting: "Uncle, grandma, why are you here?"

Yi Zhonghai said unhappily: "If we didn't come, would you be able to come out?"

While saying this, Yi Zhonghai still went to support Sha Zhu.

Sha Zhu also smiled and said, "It's okay, it will be fine in two days. Those bastards in the security department were too cruel."

The deaf old lady quickly advised: "My silly Zhuzi, please be quiet. I, the old lady, had to ask Director Yang for help to release you. Please stop making trouble and don't take food from the cafeteria home from now on."

Sha Zhu curled his lips in disdain: "Isn't it just those dishes? Is it that serious? They are only allowed to eat and drink, so what if I eat a little? The cook doesn't steal, and the grains don't collect, that's the rule."

Yi Zhonghai ignored Sha Zhu's nonsense: "Zhu Zi, what's going on? Why did your apprentice Fatty report you out of the blue?"

When Sha Zhu heard the fat man coming, he got angry and said, "This bastard is simply a traitor to his teacher. I usually take him with me when I go out to get work, but I didn't expect him to do this behind my back. What an ungrateful bastard, I won't let him off."

Actually, what Sha Zhu said was that he took Fatty to help and at most shared some dishes with Fatty, and all the fifty cents from Fatty was taken away by him. However, in his understanding, before becoming a master, the apprentice's money all belonged to the master.

Yi Zhonghai thought for a while and told Sha Zhu: "Zhu Zi, Fatty doesn't have the guts. This was instigated by Li Jianjun. Although he didn't admit it, I know it was definitely him. You should be careful in the future. I'm afraid he will do it to you again."

Sha Zhu clenched his fists and widened his eyes, saying, "I didn't expect it was him, this despicable villain, grandma, if you have the guts, just fight me openly, why are you using these shady tricks."

Yi Zhonghai said quickly: "Zhu Zi, I'm not telling you to go looking for trouble with him, I'm telling you to be careful of him. Your punishment will come tomorrow, so be more careful."

Sha Zhu didn't expect there would be a punishment, and immediately wilted: "Uncle, there is a punishment?"

Yi Zhonghai rolled his eyes at him and said, "Such a big thing almost brought you to justice. It's good enough that you still have a job. Do you still want to be safe and sound?"

After Yi Zhonghai finished explaining the punishment, Sha Zhu looked reluctant.

"Uncle, I'm out of money. I paid Xu Damao five hundred last time, and I only have fifty yuan left. Can you lend me two hundred yuan first, and I'll pay you back later." Sha Zhu felt a little embarrassed.

Yi Zhonghai was also helpless, but he was not afraid that Sha Zhu would not return it, after all, Sha Zhu still had the house: "It's okay, I'll give it to you when I get back, and you can hand it in tomorrow."

Sha Zhu continued, "Uncle, the money doesn't matter, but cleaning the toilet is too embarrassing. Can you talk to Director Yang about it?"

Yi Zhonghai shook his head: "This is already the best result, Zhuzi, it's okay, it will only be a month at most. Director Yang will need you to cook for his dinner, and we will transfer you back then."

Sha Zhu nodded and said, "When I return, you will see how I deal with that traitor. I would not be Sha Zhu if I don't drive him out of the steel mill."

Yi Zhonghai did not agree this time, but just nodded. Every master has the right to clean up the house.

When they walked back to the courtyard, most of them had already fallen asleep, but Jia Dongxu was not. He wanted to see if they had the ability to fish Sha Zhu out.

Seeing Sha Zhu coming back, Jia Dongxu felt disappointed. If he didn't have the ability, Jia Dongxu wouldn't say anything. Sha Zhu could get himself into such a big trouble, but he was unwilling to help with even the smallest thing. Jia Dongxu didn't even say hello to them and went straight back to the room to sleep. Lying on the bed, Jia Dongxu made a bold decision.

The next day, everyone was surprised to see Sha Zhu getting up to wash. They didn't expect that the deaf old lady had such strong connections that she rescued Sha Zhu that night.

When Sha Zhu passed by Li Jianjun, he whispered, "You despicable villain, just wait and see."

Li Jianjun ignored him and just smiled. He never took Sha Zhu seriously.

Li Jianjun saw Jia Dongxu on the road while riding his bike. Jia Dongxu did not wait for Yi Zhonghai and the others to leave together, but left early. Li Jianjun just thought that Jia Dongxu had something to do and had to go to the factory early, so he didn't think much about it.

When Li Jianjun arrived at the factory, he stayed in the third canteen for a while and then went to Li Huaide's office.

"Uncle, now you know what happened to Sha Zhu yesterday, do you think we can do something about it?" Li Jianjun was like a baby seeking credit.

Li Huaide felt very relieved. After all, his nephew was helping him. Section Chief Sun told him everything in the morning. He didn't expect that this brat would be so scheming. He didn't have to worry about being bullied by others in the future. "I can't do big things. Recently, the higher-ups have given me a heavy task. I can't do anything to Old Yang at this time. I don't understand production. Small things are fine. I've asked the security department to spread the news. By then, Director Yang's reputation will decline, which is good for us."

The meeting on the issue of Sha Zhu has just been held. Li Huaide wants to fire Sha Zhu, but Director Yang wants to protect Sha Zhu. However, Director Yang has a heavy production workload recently, so Li Huaide cannot go too far. If any problems arise in production, he, the deputy director of logistics, will also suffer the consequences.

After a while, a loudspeaker sounded. "Yesterday, the Security Department received a report that He Yuzhu from the Second Canteen was caught stealing state property. Fortunately, all the property was recovered. Now, the punishment notice for He Yuzhu is announced. A fine of 100 yuan, 100 yuan of materials will be recovered, and he will be demoted to an apprentice and be responsible for cleaning toilets for a month to see if he can do it."

After three times in a row, Sha Zhu was so embarrassed that he even went to his grandma's house to be embarrassed.

After listening to the broadcast, Li Jianjun said, "Uncle, is there any reward for the informant?"

"Of course there is. The reward is ten yuan, but it cannot be broadcasted. Otherwise, the factory will be in chaos and people will report it everywhere. How can we continue to produce? But we cannot disappoint our comrades." Li Huaide explained.

Li Jianjun nodded, it did make sense: "Uncle, I promised Fatty to transfer him to the third canteen. Can you do it? Otherwise, he will be retaliated by Sha Zhu." Mainly because he was afraid that Fatty would expose him. Although there was no evidence, his reputation would be bad.

"It's a piece of cake. Anyway, there are not as many people eating in the second canteen as in the third canteen. It's no big deal to transfer there. I used this excuse to transfer the fat guy there because I was afraid of Sha Zhu's revenge." Li Huaide said with a smile.

After Li Jianjun finished speaking, he returned to the third canteen to wait for Fatty, and at the same time went to deceive... to do some ideological work on Nan Yi.

Li Jianjun returned to the third canteen and found Nan Yi: "Nan Yi, do you want a disciple?"

Nan Yi was confused: "What do you mean, Jianjun, you want to find me a disciple?"

Then Li Jianjun praised Fatty a lot. Fatty became a brave man who was not afraid of power and was upright in his mouth. Sha Zhu became a petty thief. As a cook, Nan Yi naturally sneered at Sha Zhu and said excitedly: "We must not let good people be retaliated. Jianjun, I will accept this apprentice. Not only will I accept him, I will also teach him well. When the time comes, Sha Zhu will be so pissed off that he will bring shame to the chef."

Li Jianjun looked at the indignant Nan Yi and nodded with satisfaction. People in this era are so easy to fool: "That's right, Nan Yi, you teach me well, and then I will teach you a few dishes."

Nan Yi became excited. Li Jianjun's level was too high, and he needed to look up to him. If he could learn a few dishes from Li Jianjun, he would benefit from it for the rest of his life. Suddenly he thought of something: "By the way, Jianjun, why don't you accept the fat guy as your apprentice?"

Seeing Nan Yi's reaction, Li Jianjun was very depressed. What kind of brain circuit is this? Shouldn't you be excited at this time? Why are you asking me so nicely? "Nan Yi, you know, I just got married, how can I have time? If my wife gets pregnant in the future, I will have even less time. You also know that my parents are gone, and I am the only one who can take care of my wife at home."

Nan Yi nodded at him and said, "Jianjun, I was inconsiderate and brought up your sad story. It's settled then. I'm going to work."

Looking at Nan Yi who had left, Li Jianjun wiped his sweat, luckily he managed to fool him, it was not easy.
