Siheyuan: Starting from 1952

Chapter 78 Apprenticeship

After Xie Baoqing left, Xie Daji walked up to Lu Juemin and said solemnly, "Xiao Lu, thank you, thank you for your thoughtful consideration just now!"

"Little things."

Lu Juemin smiled gently, "Thank you, Boss. Since the matter has been resolved, I will leave first!"

"Don't be impatient!" Xie Daji stopped Lu Juemin, "I just told you, as long as you help me finish the dishes, I won't treat you unfairly!"

"Look, I've prepared everything for you."

As he spoke, Xie Daji took out a red envelope from his pocket.

Lu Juemin looked at the red envelope, which was bulging and thought it was quite large.

So Lu Juemin refused and said, "Boss Xie, I'm just making a few dishes, you don't need that many!"

"Yes, of course I will." Xie Daji said as he forced the red envelope into Lu Juemin's hand.

Qian Xiaohao at the side also said: "Juemin, just accept it! If not, I will be very upset at the wedding banquet today!"

Xie Lanlan also said: "Brother Juemin, just keep it, this is what you deserve!"

Hearing what the three members of the Xie family said, Lu Juemin stopped refusing and accepted the red envelope handed over by Xie Daji, "In that case, I will respectfully obey your order!"

Seeing Lu Juemin accept the red envelope, Xie Daji smiled and said, "Xiao Lu, I have another thing I want to ask you for help."

"what?"

"I would like to invite you to be the chef at my Hongbin Restaurant."

"what?"

Lu Juemin was slightly surprised when he heard this, "Xie Dabao... this is inappropriate, right? My cooking skills are limited, I can't do it!"

"Besides, I have my own job and I am very satisfied with it. I have no intention of changing jobs for the time being."

"Haha!" Hearing Lu Juemin's refusal, Xie Daji laughed and said, "Xiao Lu, you are really too modest! With your cooking skills today, you are definitely qualified to be the chef in my restaurant."

"And I don't mean to ask you to change jobs."

"You can continue to work at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. You only need to come to Hongbinlou to cook a few dishes while the chef in my shop is recovering from his illness!"

"Is this so..."

Lu Juemin thought about it carefully.

Judging from the way Xie Daji acted, he must be a very wealthy man.

If I really come to Hongbinlou to cook, the treatment will definitely be good.

But right.

I really don’t have the time!

First of all.

He had to go to work at the steel mill, and secondly, he also needed to collect herbs. Finally, he also had to visit Li Yanxi often.

It can be said that his time is almost fully scheduled.

There is no time to cook at Hongbinlou.

But then I thought about it.

If I could help Xie Daji.

Then it can be said that Xie Daji and I have formed a good relationship.

As the boss of Hongbinlou, Xie Daji has quite good connections, take today's wedding banquet for example.

The guests who came to the wedding banquet were all well-known figures in the Sijiu City Chamber of Commerce.

If I could make friends with Xie Daji.

Then I can also get to know these people through Xie Daji.

That means that he can have his own network of contacts in the city.

Connections are like money.

If you want to do business, and want to do big business, it is absolutely impossible without connections!

Think of this.

Then we'll just have to work a little harder.

"Boss Xie has already said so. If I refuse again, I will be giving you no face!"

"Haha!" Xie Daji laughed heartily, "Xiao Lu, I'll have to trouble you in the future!"

"It's not hard."

"..."

……

night.

Siheyuan.

He family.

He Yuzhu was leaning against the door, and He Yushui was leaning on He Yuzhu.

The two siblings stared blankly at the gate of the courtyard, waiting for He Daqing to come back.

But no matter how long the brother and sister waited.

He Daqing hasn't come back yet.

soon.

As night falls, the stars in the sky begin to shine brightly.

"Brother, why hasn't Dad come back yet?" He Yushui felt a little sleepy.

"Oh, I don't know either..." He Yuzhu sighed, with a bad feeling in his heart.

"Brother, do you think Dad will abandon us?" He Yushui asked.

"Yushui, what nonsense are you talking about? How could Dad not want us?" He Yuzhu touched He Yushui's head, "Wait a little longer, Dad will definitely be back soon!"

that's it.

The two siblings continued to wait.

at last.

As the moon moved lower, a figure appeared at the gate of the courtyard.

He Daqing is back.

"dad!"

"Dad, you're back!"

The brother and sister immediately went to greet him.

"Why are you two still awake so late?"

He Daqing looked at his two children and a hint of displeasure flashed across his face.

"Wait for you."

He Yuzhu was a little dissatisfied, "Dad, why did you come back just now?"

"Why do you care so much?" He Daqing scolded, "From now on, you two are not allowed to wait for me. If you wait for me again, I will definitely give you two a break. Do you hear me?"

"I……"

He Yuzhu gritted his teeth and wanted to say something else, but in the end he couldn't say it.

the next day.

He went to work at Hongbinlou as usual.

Because He Daqing came home late, he was a little distracted at work.

It’s a good thing that the chef was not there, otherwise I don’t know how he would criticize you.

Until noon.

The kitchen gradually became busy.

A kitchen without a master chef is obviously a bit stretched.

At this time, Lu Juemin appeared.

See Lu Juemin.

The chefs in the kitchen all looked surprised, "Young Master, why are you here again?"

"Let me help you cook a few dishes." Lu Juemin replied.

"what?"

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu rushed to Lu Juemin and said, "Brother Juemin, are you saying that you will work in Hongbinlou from now on?"

"no!"

Lu Juemin shook his head, "I only come to help at noon and dinner time!"

"I won't come again until your chef recovers from his illness."

"That's it..."

He Yuzhu's eyes became somewhat lost.

But no matter what.

With Lu Juemin's arrival, the work in the kitchen suddenly became orderly.

Especially He Yuzhu.

The previous distraction disappeared all of a sudden, and I became very motivated.

An idea came to his mind: to take Lu Juemin as his teacher!

And as time goes by, this idea becomes stronger.

But if he wants to become his disciple, he must get the consent of his father He Daqing.

So this day.

He got up early in the morning and woke up He Daqing who was still sleeping.

"Dad, I want to take Brother Juemin as my master!"

"What?"

He Daqing rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked at He Yuzhu as if he was a fool. "Zhuzi, did you take the wrong medicine? You want Lu Juemin to be your master? What can he, a fitter, teach you?"

He Yuzhu said angrily: "Brother Juemin is not only a fitter, his cooking skills are also top-notch, even better than yours, Dad!"
