Siheyuan: Silly Pillar is Kind

As soon as Sha Zhu stepped into the house, he heard squad leader Wang standing in the corner and shouting, "Tonight, our village is going to slaughter a big fat pig! If anyone wants to buy some fresh pork, you can come with me later to take a look."

Before he finished speaking, the aunts around him started talking about it like a boiling pot:

"Why do you suddenly want to kill the pig at this time? There is still some time before the Chinese New Year."

"That's what I mean. It's not even the end of the year yet. Why are you killing pigs now?"

At this time, Sha Zhu happened to walk in. After hearing the conversation, he curiously came forward to look around and thought to himself, "Hey, it just so happens that I also want to go to Squad Leader Wang to buy some meat to taste. It's really better to be lucky than to be early!"

Seeing that Sha Zhu seemed quite interested in this, squad leader Wang quickly explained, "This is what happened! We have raised that big boar for more than three years, and it has grown really big! So we decided to slaughter it and raise a smaller meat pig. Besides, didn't our sow just give birth to a litter of piglets a few days ago..."

Hearing this, Chen Xuan's heart moved, and he interrupted and asked, "What about the remaining piglets?"

Squad leader Wang looked at Chen Xuan suspiciously and asked, "What else can we do? Of course we can sell them to others. Can we keep them for ourselves? But every household should be raising piglets at this time. I'm afraid it will be difficult to sell them!"

It just so happens that a friend of mine wants to buy it. When the time comes, please ask him. If the price is right, I will help him get it directly. Making friends out of nothing is something that Sha Zhu is very familiar with and can do with ease. Squad Leader Wang didn't care too much, after all, Sha Zhu has always had a wide range of friends. Let's not talk about other things for now. Just talking about this factory, there are a lot of so-called "friends" of He Yuzhu. Sha Zhu usually accepts all these friends, but there are not many true friends.

"Okay, I'll talk to you about it then. But no matter how cheap the piglets are, they'll cost at least one yuan. There's nothing we can do about it. There's still a lot of meat on the piglets." After the discussion, Sha Zhu turned around and went to read. During this period of time, every time he read, he would have new insights and gains, as if his whole person had been sublimated. Many questions that he had never thought of before can now be answered in books! At this moment, as the appointment results on the big red paper were announced, Song Bing and Director Wang came to the kitchen together.

"Everyone, please be quiet for a moment! Come over here and gather!" While shouting, Sha Zhu glanced at the pretty girl standing next to Director Wang. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he walked towards them.

When he came closer, Director Wang said, "Dear colleagues, let me introduce you to our new kitchen director, Comrade Song Bing! From today on, I will no longer serve as the canteen director! I hope that you can support Comrade Song Bing's work as much as you support me. Now, please welcome Comrade Song Bing with the warmest applause!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Director Wang started to applaud first, expressing his welcome to Song Bing. However, everyone below turned their eyes to He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu smiled, nodded to Song Bing, and then started to applaud. Because he had been practicing martial arts every day, his hands were very strong, so the sound of his clapping was particularly loud, and the sound of "pa, pa, pa" echoed throughout the space.

Seeing this, squad leader Wang also reacted quickly and applauded loudly. For a moment, warm applause rang out all around, as if to overturn the roof. Director Wang saw this situation, and the stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground. He was originally worried that He Yuzhu would take the opportunity to cause trouble!

"Okay, we'll have plenty of time to get to know each other later. Comrade Song Bing, Deputy Director He, please come with me to my office so we can hand over our work." After the applause died down, Director Wang took the two men into his office.

"Deputy Director He, I have successfully completed the work handover with Comrade Song Bing. I have to rush over to report in later. You can report directly to Director Song!" Sha Zhu said with a bright smile on his face, "Director Wang's promotion is really a cause for celebration! Tonight we plan to hold a celebration banquet for Director Wang, Director Wang must come!"

Hearing this, Director Wang glanced at Song Bing casually, and then responded: "We are all here to serve the people, so drinking is fine. Why don't we find a time to get together so that we can get to know each other and contact each other if we have anything in the future, so that you don't have any idea where I work. Director Song, come along in the evening so you can get to know the guys in the kitchen."

"I'm sorry, Director Wang, I have something to do at home and have to go back for dinner. Just have fun!" Song Bing replied indifferently.

Sha Zhu and the others knew that this young lady was not the same kind of person as them, so they stopped forcing her and quickly changed the subject. "Okay, Director Wang, you go first. I'll go to Director Song to report my work."

"Okay, I'll go first!" After saying that, Director Wang shook hands with Sha Zhu, but when he came to Song Bing, he just nodded slightly...

Sha Zhu watched Director Wang leave, then slowly turned around and his eyes fell on Song Bing.

"Director Song, shall I start reporting my work to you now?" Sha Zhu asked cautiously.

"Yeah!" Song Bing nodded in agreement.

Hearing this, Sha Zhu couldn't help but curse in his heart: "Fuck! Do you want me to report while standing?" He stared at Song Bing with wide eyes, but saw that the other party had no intention of letting him sit down. So Sha Zhu sat down on the chair and thought: "Who cares!"

"I am currently mainly responsible for cooking meals for the small stove, and I also have to take care of the frying and cutting of vegetables at the big stove." Sha Zhu listed his job responsibilities in one breath.

Song Bing looked at Sha Zhu, who was fearless, and didn't say much. She seemed to be accustomed to Sha Zhu's reckless character, and seemed to turn a deaf ear to his report. Only after Sha Zhu finished speaking did Song Bing speak:

"Our top priority right now is to welcome the technical team that will be arriving tomorrow. Deputy Director He's cooking skills have always been highly praised, even the secretary and the factory director are full of praise! This time, we also hope that Deputy Director He can continue to work hard and win a new certificate of honor for our steel mill kitchen."

Sha Zhu nodded and said he understood. Although he was a little reluctant, since the leader had spoken, he had no choice but to do it. After all, who doesn't want to achieve good results at work?

Song Bing was silent for a moment, then continued, "In addition, the skills of the chefs in the current kitchens, including the small kitchen, vary greatly, and the service staff even had an argument with a VIP. Therefore, Deputy Director He, regarding cooking, I hope you can teach everyone without reservation!" After saying this, Song Bing turned his gaze to Sha Zhu, and then continued, "As for me personally, I will focus on the service quality of the waiters and the overall hygiene of the cafeteria. Deputy Director He, do you think my arrangement is feasible?"

"Very good, Director Song is really capable! Then please announce this decision in public. However, Director Song, to be honest, I don't have much free time at the moment and may not be able to fully carry out teaching work. I would like to select a student to try teaching first, what do you think? After all, although I am an excellent cook, it does not mean that I am good at teaching others!" Sha Zhu responded earnestly.

Song Bing still stared at Sha Zhu's face... "Director Song?" Seeing that the other party did not respond, Sha Zhu waved his hand gently.

"Oh! Okay, we can do as you say. The specific candidate is up to you. Let's go!" After a long while, Song Bing came back to his senses and replied.

Back in the kitchen, everyone quietly waited for Song Bing's instructions. After she finished her announcement, the service staff left one after another, even the aunts in charge of cleaning left the scene without a single one left. Sha Zhu clapped his hands and said loudly: "Everyone heard it, now! We need someone to work with me here. If any of you have this idea, you can come to me at any time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an employee couldn't wait to shout: "Director He, please choose me, I can do any job!" Then, another person said not to be outdone: "Choose me, Director He, you know me, I never get lazy, and I will treat you with respect as my master in the future!" Others also echoed: "Choose me, Director He..." "Choose me, Director He..." "Choose me, Director He..." For a moment, the entire kitchen was filled with noise.

Seeing this, Sha Zhu gestured for everyone to be quiet. He cleared his throat and continued, "But I can only choose one person. Those who want to sign up must start by washing vegetables, and then learn vegetable cutting skills. These two stages will take a full six years. And everyone should be clear about these rules! In addition, according to Director Song's request, I will teach you some cooking skills from time to time in the future!" After saying that, Sha Zhu looked at squad leader Wang on the side, only to see that the other party showed a meaningful smile.

After the candidates were confirmed, it was already dark and everyone was clocking out. At this time, squad leader Wang walked over.

"How is she? Do you think she is easy to get along with?" asked squad leader Wang curiously.

"Miss! You are not the same kind of person as us!" Sha Zhu replied with a pout.

"Why don't we just turn her into one of our own?" Squad Leader Wang raised his eyebrows and suggested. Then he changed the subject: "But seriously, are you having a second growth spurt?"

Sha Zhu was suspicious when he heard this: "What's going on?"

"You weren't this handsome when you first came here! You were still a dark-skinned young man then, but now your skin has become fairer!"

"How can I not have white skin if I don't get any sun exposure all day?" Sha Zhu spread his hands helplessly.

Squad leader Wang shook his head and denied it: "That's not right. Among all of us cooks, who has a good-looking complexion? Some are red or sallow, but you are the only one with a fair complexion."

"Stop talking nonsense. How have you found out about Huang Tingting's situation?" Sha Zhu impatiently changed the subject.

Squad leader Wang grinned, showing his big white teeth and said proudly: "I have found out everything. She is the most beautiful girl in the textile factory! Have you thought about what to do next?"

Sha Zhu raised his lips slightly, and said confidently: "This time I can just learn from Xu Damao..."

"Who is Xu Damao?" Squad Leader Wang asked in confusion.

"Let's go, it's time to celebrate with Director Wang!" Sha Zhu turned around and said without answering.
