Siheyuan starts to activate the task system

Zhang Yuan really underestimated the ability of those guys in the courtyard to make trouble. Although he had warned Liu Ruoqing before, it was ultimately because he was inexperienced and could not resist the nonsense of those people. This is what happened.

On the fourth day of the Chinese New Year, Zhang Yuan brought carefully prepared gifts to visit the leader's family, hoping to take this opportunity to show off himself. However, when he walked into the leader's house, he saw an unexpected figure.

"Silly Zhu, how could it be you?" Zhang Yuan widened his eyes, looking at the familiar figure busy in the kitchen in disbelief, and couldn't help but screaming.

"What's the matter? I didn't expect that Grandpa Zhuzi would get lucky too!" Sha Zhu's face was filled with a smug smile, as if he really enjoyed seeing Zhang Yuan's surprised expression. As he spoke, he continued to skillfully manipulate the spatula in his hand, obviously feeling extremely proud that he could cook at the big boss's house.

"That's true." Zhang Yuan was indeed extremely shocked, and his heart was like a storm. He thought that after Sha Zhu was released from prison, he had successfully intercepted the opportunity that originally belonged to Sha Zhu. However, what he never expected was that this guy seemed to have luck, and somehow, he was connected with the big boss again.

"Let me tell you, Grandpa Zhuzi, I have a noble helper! One time, Director Yang came to my house. He originally wanted to ask my father to cook for the big boss. Unfortunately, my father was not at home that day, so I had to do it. Who could have expected that the big boss would favor me so much and would call me over to cook for him whenever he had the chance." Sha Zhu enthusiastically narrated his legendary experience with a proud smile on his face.

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but sigh: "Shazhu, Shazhu, you are such a lucky guy! The protagonist's halo is really strong, and stupid people are blessed." As Shazhu frequently contacted the big boss over the past month, he gradually won the big boss's trust. The big boss even personally came forward to guarantee Shazhu, allowing him to return to work in the steel mill. Although he was only a temporary worker, not a regular worker, in Shazhu's eyes, this was much better than sweeping the streets. After all, being able to return to a familiar working environment and continue to use his cooking skills is already a rare happiness.

Zhang Yuan chatted with Sha Zhu and gradually learned about Liu Ruoqing's recent situation. It turned out that Liu Ruoqing, a simple girl, had lived in the courtyard for less than a month when Yi Zhonghai used sweet words to cheat her out of her house. She had to move to the small wing of the deaf old lady in the backyard. Not only that, she was frequently subjected to moral kidnapping by Qin Huairu, Yi Zhonghai and others. These people not only asked her to subsidize the house, but also often found various excuses to borrow money from her, and even asked her to treat them to dinner. Sha Zhu had the same experience. He often helped Qin Huairu's family without telling He Daqing. Moreover, when Sha Zhu talked about Liu Ruoqing, his words were full of admiration. He called Liu Ruoqing a good cadre and a good comrade. Whenever he mentioned her, Sha Zhu's face was filled with excitement, and he obviously admired her. Needless to say, Zhang Yuan could also see that Sha Zhu was salivating over Liu Ruoqing's beauty.

After listening to Sha Zhu's description, Zhang Yuan's face turned ugly, and he couldn't help but feel angry. He had clearly warned Liu Ruoqing about the greed and ill intentions of those people, but she still foolishly fell into the trap.

"Xiao Zhang, you're here!" Just as Zhang Yuan was lost in thought, Sister Rong came in. She had just finished receiving guests and had a happy smile on her face. As soon as Sister Rong entered the kitchen, she saw Zhang Yuan chatting with Sha Zhu, and her expression immediately became excited.

"Sister, the New Year is coming soon, and I brought some gifts for you and your brother-in-law." Zhang Yuan smiled and raised the gift in his hand, his eyes full of sincerity.

"Oh, I'm glad you're here. Why are you being so polite?" Sister Rong happily took the gift from Zhang Yuan and found that it contained beef, mutton, and two fat old hens.

"Wow, your beef and mutton are so fresh!" Sister Rong said in surprise as she looked at the ingredients carefully.

"That's right. I put a lot of effort into getting these fine ingredients." Zhang Yuan said modestly.

"If I had known you brought such good things, I wouldn't have had to rack my brains to think of the menu just now." Sha Zhu stepped forward and interjected, staring at the ingredients, like a hungry wolf seeing delicious pork. For a chef, facing such fresh ingredients, it is natural to want to show off his cooking skills.

"Shazhu, since you like cooking so much, take these ingredients to the kitchen and show off your cooking skills!" Sister Rong said to Shazhu with a smile.

"Okay! I've finally waited until this moment!" Sha Zhu took the ingredients happily, rushed into the kitchen impatiently, and began to show off his superb cooking skills.

At this time, Sister Rong took Zhang Yuan's hand and invited him kindly: "Xiao Zhang, we don't have any other guests today, why don't you stay here and have dinner with us." After that, she led Zhang Yuan to the living room.

However, they did not notice that after hearing this conversation, Sha Zhu behind them suddenly froze in his meat-cutting action, but in just a moment, he quickly returned to normal, lowered his head and continued with the work at hand.

When I walked into the living room, I saw the leader sitting alone on the sofa. It turned out that the previous visitor had left.

"Come on, sit down. Don't be so polite next time. It's such a waste to buy so many things." The leader said to Zhang Yuan earnestly.

"How can this be considered a waste? It's just a little gift from me." Zhang Yuan quickly responded.

"But you must also be careful not to violate discipline." The leader reminded seriously.

"I understand, leader. Don't worry, I will never make any mistakes." Zhang Yuan nodded solemnly.

Seeing this, Sister Rong interrupted with some displeasure: "Okay, okay, Xiao Zhang came to visit us with good intentions, so you should stop bringing the unit's rules home to preach. Xiao Zhang, ignore him, he's just an old stubborn man!" After saying that, Sister Rong glared at the big boss.

"Sister Rong, please don't get me wrong! My brother-in-law did this out of his concern and love for me! He was worried that I was young and inexperienced, and might accidentally go astray. That's why he gave me this vaccination in advance so that I could always keep a clear head and avoid being tempted by the outside world. Tell me, how can I not be grateful to have such a good brother-in-law?" Zhang Yuan was afraid that his own faults would cause a rift between the big boss and his wife, so he quickly stepped forward to explain.

The big boss nodded, indicating his approval of Zhang Yuan's statement, and then said: "Well, Xiao Zhang, it would be great if you could understand our good intentions. In fact, regarding the last incident at the machine repair shop, I have already called to inquire about the situation. You are now a section chief after all, and your status is different from before. If you keep coming to my house, it will inevitably cause some unnecessary trouble. After all, people's words are scary, and some people with ulterior motives may make a big fuss about it. Of course, this does not mean that we do not welcome you to be our guest, but we hope that you can pay attention to the impact and try to avoid leaving a handle for others."

On the surface, this passage seems to be a reminder from the leader to Zhang Yuan, but in fact it is also explaining to him why Sha Zhu came to his home to help with things. In this way, Zhang Yuan's doubts were eliminated and the harmonious atmosphere of the family was maintained, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
