After completing all the formalities, He Daqing was informed that he could officially start working after the Chinese New Year. At that time, Director Ma would be responsible for arranging for the leaders of the factory to taste the dishes he made. However, according to Director Ma, this tasting was just a formality, so He Daqing did not need to worry too much.

"Zhang Yuan, don't cook tonight! Come to my house for dinner. For what happened in the past, plus today's job, our He family owes you too much. No matter what, I have to invite you to dinner, and it's a good opportunity to try my cooking skills." He Daqing stopped Zhang Yuan and warmly invited him to his home. In fact, in addition to this, He Daqing had another plan in mind. He had long noticed that his daughter Yu Shui had a special feeling for Zhang Yuan, but she had never taken the initiative, and even let other girls get ahead of her. This made He Daqing very depressed. He thought to himself: How could I give birth to such a stupid pair of children when I am so smart and wise? One was cheated by others and helped others count money, while the other was so stupid that he couldn't even tell good from bad, and gave away the opportunity in vain. As a father, he felt that he had a responsibility to help his daughter.

"Will that disturb you too much?" Zhang Yuan asked politely.

"Look at what you said! Yu Shui told me that she relied on you these days! If you hadn't been willing to help her, those people in the yard would have divided my house up long ago! I'm a silly girl, just like her brother, and I'm easily deceived. A few nice words from others can make them dizzy and unable to tell the directions!" He Daqing scolded his children in front of Zhang Yuan without any hesitation.

"They are also kind-hearted, otherwise I wouldn't help them." Zhang Yuan said.

"Well, they are like their mother in this respect." He Daqing nodded, agreeing with Zhang Yuan's statement.

"Anyway, remember to come to my house for dinner!" He Daqing said this and then parted ways with Zhang Yuan. He thought to himself: Now that the work problem has been solved, I finally have time to brag to my former fellow apprentices!

On a cold winter day, Zhang Yuan walked back to the yard slowly. The yard was very deserted at the moment, and there was hardly anyone in sight. He was alone at home, feeling bored. His thoughts gradually drifted back to the past, when he first arrived, in order to make a living, he either went fishing by the river or went up the mountain to catch hares and pheasants. However, he had not experienced such days for a long time, and he could not help but feel nostalgic. Unfortunately, the cold weather now really discouraged people, and they had no intention of going out at all.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. "Knock, knock, knock!" Zhang Yuan opened the door and looked, his mouth slightly raised, revealing a hint of smile. It turned out that someone took the initiative to come to the door. Now he had something to do to kill this boring time.

Meanwhile, Qin Huairu was busy taking care of Jia Dongxu and their two young children. Although Jia Zhang was detained for seven days for breaking the law, and there was one less person who consumed a lot of food in the family, the family's plight did not improve at all. There was very little food left in the storage, and the coal needed for heating had not yet been purchased. Qin Huairu couldn't help but complain about Jia Zhang, thinking that she was simply a jinx with bad luck. Originally, everyone went out together to buy winter vegetables and coal, but in the end, nothing was done, and nothing was bought. Instead, the whole family was left hungry and cold. It was really a failure and a mess for the family.

Looking at the disabled man, a half-grown boy and a hungry child at home, Qin Huairu felt distressed, fearing that the children were malnourished. So she ran to Yi Zhonghai's house, pretending to be pitiful, trying to win their sympathy. In the end, she successfully took back a bag of corn flour weighing 10 kilograms from Yi Zhonghai and his wife. However, Qin Huairu did not appreciate the kindness of Yi Zhonghai and his wife, and even complained secretly in her heart. In her opinion, this bag of corn flour was of no help at all and had no nutrition. She was worried that if this continued, Banggeng would be starved to death. Fortunately, Banggeng still affectionately called Yi Zhonghai "Grandpa"!

Qin Huairu thought that this amount of food was not enough for her family, and she was pregnant, so she couldn't lack nutrition. So, she thought about the whole yard. Except for Xu Damao and Zhang Yuan, other people's families probably didn't have much ability to help her. In the end, Qin Huairu still chose Zhang Yuan. She had some feelings for Zhang Yuan. Secondly, Xu Damao's character was not good, and his appearance was not as good as Zhang Yuan's, so Qin Huairu eliminated him in her mind. Then there was the scene of Qin Huairu coming to the door.

"Brother, are you home alone?" Qin Huairu walked into Zhang Yuan's house, glanced at the bedroom and spoke.

"Yeah, I'm a bachelor, how can there be anyone else at home?" Zhang Yuan said jokingly, and he turned around to pour himself a glass of water.

"I have something to talk to you about." Qin Huairu came into the room and sat in front of Zhang Yuan.

"what's up?"

"Can you lend me some meat and coal?"

"Borrowing meat and coal? How and when are you going to pay it back?"

"Don't worry, I'll pay you back as soon as I have money." Qin Huairu was afraid that Zhang Yuan would not agree, so she quickly made a promise.

"That's fine, but I'm a little bored now, so please sit with me and chat for a while." Zhang Yuan stared at Qin Huairu and emphasized the word "sit".

Hearing the meaning of Zhang Yuan's words, Qin Huairu's originally frozen face became even redder, and she stood up suddenly. She didn't expect Zhang Yuan to be so bold that he wanted to do that with her in broad daylight.

Seeing that Qin Huairu did not leave, Zhang Yuan moved closer, went around behind her and pressed his lips against her back. Qin Huairu felt a pair of large hands hugging her and heard Zhang Yuan's heavy breathing from behind her.

An hour later, Qin Huairu came out of Zhang Yuan's house, cursing Zhang Yuan in her heart, calling him a cow, an indestructible cow that tortured her to death. Fortunately, Zhang Yuan kept his word and gave her a pound of fat and a bag of coal. Unfortunately, she had no strength to move away and could only wait for another day. Who knows if that "someday" will come to bully her again.

Zhang Yuan, lying on the bed, felt very happy. He was extremely envious of Jia Dongxu, a loser, for marrying such a beautiful wife.

Before Zhang Yuan could finish his YY, there was another knock on the door.

"Who?"

"Brother Zhang, it's me, Yu Shui. My dad asked me to invite you to dinner."

"Oh, I see. You go back first. I'll be there soon."

Zhang Yuan didn't expect time to pass so quickly, so he quickly packed up and took out a Daqianmen and a bottle of Moutai from the cabinet and gave them as gifts.
