Siheyuan: Married a female spy at the beginning of 1944

Yueya followed He Daqing to the kitchen at the back.

"This is the woodshed, you can tidy up and live here.

I'll go find you a bed and quilt."

Although it is a woodshed, it is about 4 square meters.

You can gather the firewood inside and sleep as well.

After He Daqing left, Yueya sat on the firewood pile in a daze.

She didn't expect this day to come so soon.

She is 13 years old this year, which is not young anymore.

Everything you need to know is known.

And she also knew how her mother supported her.

She even clearly knew that if she didn't find a better husband, she might still follow in her mother's footsteps.

What she is most worried about now is her mother.

She didn't know whether she would be troubled by the Japanese devils and the traitor police after her mother sent her away.

She wanted to go home, and she was afraid that when she returned home in a few days, she would be the only one left at home.

"Although this quilt is a little torn, it can still be used as a blanket. It's autumn now and the temperature is relatively low, so it's better to cover yourself with it at night."

He Daqing borrowed a quilt from Master Wu.

"Uncle He, I want to go home. I ran away, but what about my mother? They won't let my mother go."

He Daqing knew it, and even Yuerong knew it.

Yuerong just wanted to sacrifice herself to save her daughter.

"Be good, your mother will be fine. At most they will just beat her up, that's all.

But if you go back, it might really cost your mother her life."

He Daqing felt that given Yuerong's current situation, the Japanese would not have any thoughts about her.

Yuerong looked like an old lady and was sickly.

He Daqing even thought that Yue Rong would not survive next year.

"Uncle He, when you go back, go see my mom. How about, how about asking her to hide here for two days?"

Yueya mustered up the courage to ask her mother to hide here for two days as well.

She knew that He Daqing was just the cook here and did not have that much power.

But she didn't want her mother to be beaten or to suffer any more.

She made a request that seemed excessive to her.

"When I get home tonight, I'll go see your mom. If that doesn't work, ask your mom to hide in the backyard for a while.

There should be room for the old lady in the backyard."

He Daqing didn't know what his relationship with the deaf old lady was like.

But his son He Yuzhu often took his son to the old lady's room.

The old lady’s surname is Tong. She has no children or relatives.

Her feet were three-inch golden lotus, and they wobbled when she walked. She usually never strolled in the front yard.

The entire courtyard originally belonged to the old lady.

It is said that she was originally a concubine kept by a Manchu noble.

With the fall of the Qing Dynasty, her man was affected and his entire family was wiped out.

She also lost her source of income.

She had no choice but to dismiss the servants.

Then rent out the extra rooms.

I live in the innermost room.

He Daqing, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, Xu Fugui, Jia Yuan, Yan Bugui.

These people were residents she carefully selected.

These people all have clean family backgrounds, and none of them is a very evil person.

Now, except He Daqing, all other families have to pay rent to the old lady.

He Daqing had a good father-in-law who helped him buy the house from the old lady, and he bought two houses at once.

So in the entire courtyard, no one dared to speak loudly to Old Lady Tong.

Even when it was time to pay the rent, they didn't dare to look up at the old lady.

Fortunately, Mrs. Tong is very reasonable.

If someone has difficulties and pays less rent for a few days, she will just let it go.

If the situation is particularly difficult, she will even waive one month's rent.

She would rather reduce the rent than change the tenant.

The old lady's good deeds also won the respect of everyone in the courtyard.

Whenever I have something good, I will think of giving some to the old lady.

It can be regarded as a return gift for the rent of the meeting.

Yueya is still young after all, and she doesn’t think about many things comprehensively.

Thinking that since He Daqing said so, her mother's safety should not be a problem.

"Thank you, Uncle He!"

"You're welcome, don't think too much, good days are coming soon, just bear with it for a while.

You can clean up by yourself and come over for dinner later."

He Daqing strolled back to the kitchen, wanting to find a place to sit for a while.

At this time, Liu Guotao came.

"Master He, does what you said before still count?"

He Daqing was stunned for a moment. It seemed that he had not made any promises to this boy.

"What did I say?"

"You wanted to teach me how to cook? Did you forget it so quickly?"

When He Daqing first met Liu Guotao, he had a very good impression of him.

At that time, I thought that this boy was very talented and handsome, and it would be a waste if he worked as a waiter.

It would be better for him to learn a skill, and he also wants to get rid of his job as a chef.

But now, he felt that this boy's identity was not simple and he didn't seem like someone who could work honestly.

"Haven't you heard the saying, 'If you miss this opportunity, you'll miss it too.

You disagreed then, and I disagree now."

Liu Guotao didn't expect that He Daqing would change his mind.

He smiled and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and lit one for He Daqing.

"Master He, I'm sorry, I didn't understand the situation that day, I thought you were joking.

Just think about it, how honorable it is to be your apprentice. I'm just a new waiter, and you let me learn how to cook from you.

How dare I really think about it?

After spending the past two days with you, I have discovered that you are a down-to-earth person who always keeps your word.

Then I understood that you really admired me that day and really wanted to teach me.

I was ungrateful at first, and today I sincerely want to take you as my teacher."

He Daqing didn't expect that this young man was so good at talking. He already had a good impression of him.

Like it even more now.

“Okay, then I agree. You can stay with me when I cook from now on.

First, recognize the ingredients and dishes, and then have a general understanding of cooking skills.

Alas, it’s not possible now. If it were a few years ago, I would be busy every day.

You’ll have more opportunities to learn.

Nowadays, we only have one table for a few days, so there is not enough material for you to practice.

How about this, starting from tomorrow, we will have carrot soup for our working lunch, and you should learn how to cut vegetables first."

Liu Guotao still has a lot of good things to say.

He originally thought that He Daqing was a difficult person to deal with, but now it seems that He Daqing is also a straightforward person.

All moods are written on his face.

When he was praising He Daqing just now, He Daqing's eyebrows were raised to the sky.

He didn't really want to learn how to cook, and he didn't really care whether he could practice or not.

He said a lot of good things about He Daqing.

The more He Daqing listened, the happier he became.

He was so flattered that he didn't sleep the whole day, and he also talked incessantly to Liu Guotao about many things to pay attention to when cooking.

"Alas, it's another day with no business. I don't know how long the lady can hold on here.

I'm really worried about her. Xiao Liu, I'm going home first, let's talk tomorrow."

He Daqing made a rough calculation.

The Tan family's expenses are actually not small. They have to prepare at least fifteen tables of dishes a month to barely maintain a balance between income and expenditure.

"Master, wait, I'll go with you."

"Why are you following me?"

He Daqing originally wanted to take advantage of the fact that the city gates were not closed.

Get out of the city quickly, and then practice shooting with the city gate guards at night.

As for Li Wanqiu's request for him to go back early, he had long forgotten it.

There's nothing I can do when I go back. It's just making me angry and boring.

It would be better to kill a few Japanese devils and have some fun.

Now He Daqing thinks about killing a few Japanese devils after get off work.

It gave him a feeling of

It feels like playing two games.
