Siheyuan's opening rejection of the elderly care group

After returning to the cafeteria,

He Yuzhu instructed: "Ma Hua, from today on, use less oil, salt and seasoning when cooking radish and cabbage."

"Master, what's wrong?" Ma Hua looked at He Yuzhu curiously.

"Director Yang said that our canteen is wasteful and doesn't know how to live, so we should save some money to feed them. If any workers have any complaints, let them go to Director Yang," He Yuzhu said angrily.

"Since the chef became the head chef in our cafeteria, there has never been any waste. Isn't this slandering us?" Ma Hua was also a little angry.

"Someone must be unhappy to see you taking the leftovers home, and Director Yang took advantage of the situation to make a fuss. Okay, just listen to me and make more plain cabbage and radish," He Yuzhu instructed Ma Hua.

"Got it, Master."

"Has Jianshe's cooking skills improved recently? I'm going to inspect you in a couple of days, so don't embarrass me," He Yuzhu asked Gao Jianshe again.

"Master, don't worry, I feel I have made a lot of progress during this period of time," Gao Jianshe assured as soon as he heard that He Yuzhu was going to test him.

"Master, my junior brother has made great progress recently. Not only him, but Liu Lan is also working hard to learn cooking. If he continues like this, he will soon catch up with me," Ma Hua said in a good tone to his junior brother.

"If you are caught up by your junior brother, then I wonder if you, as the eldest brother, will still have the face to live up to it. It's better to let your junior brother be your senior brother," He Yuzhu teased as he looked at the honest Ma Hua. In fact, he was very satisfied with Ma Hua, who worked hard and never complained and was never picky.

In the following time, He Yuzhu asked his fellow apprentice Ma Hua some questions, gave some pointers to Liu Lan, and spent the rest of the time slacking off in the cafeteria until the end of get off work.

He Yuzhu came to the gate of the courtyard on his bicycle with two pig's trotters and a fish tied to the left handlebar and vegetables and a piece of pork tied to the right handlebar.

Li Xiuzhi and her sister will be coming to my house today, so I have to prepare some ingredients to make something delicious for them.

"Zhuzi, you eat so well every time you pass by the front gate. Aren't you just envying your third uncle?" Yan Fugui, who was still watering the flowers at the gate of the courtyard, saw He Yuzhu coming back and walked up to him and said.

"Then you can just enjoy it. I can't treat you today. If I hadn't talked to you about these dishes, I would still need them. I'll see you later." After saying that, he picked up the vegetables and pushed the cart to the middle courtyard.

Seeing that there was no advantage to be gained, Yan Fugui shook his head and went home.

At this time, Qin Huairu also returned to the courtyard after work. Looking at the ingredients brought by He Yuzhu, she couldn't help but think, "It would be great if this was from my home," and she was lost in thought.

"Qin Huairu, you little vixen, why are you staring at another man again? Go home and cook," Jia Zhang's scolding voice came to her ears, pulling Qin Huairu back to reality from her fantasy.

In fact, Jia Zhang also saw the ingredients that He Yuzhu took, but she was afraid of He Yuzhu's revenge. When she thought that she couldn't eat it, she could only vent her anger on Qin Huairu.

Nothing happened that night. Early the next morning, He Yuzhu got up early and cleaned the house inside and out.

Seeing that the time was almost up, he went to the east wing and called his sister, "Is it going to rain?"

"I just woke up and got up right away. What's the matter, brother?" After waiting for a while, He Yushui opened the door with sleepy eyes.

"I'm going to pick up your sister-in-law to come home soon. Please light the fire at home and prepare some candies and tea," He Yuzhu instructed his sister.

"Don't worry, brother promises to complete the task. Go quickly and bring sister-in-law back as soon as possible so that I can see her." He Yushui immediately became alert when he heard that his brother was going to pick up his sister-in-law.

"Okay, I'm leaving now," He Yuzhu said, and then he strode forward, pushing his bicycle, leaving the Nanluoguxiang courtyard and heading for Yandaixie Street.

Seeing that he was almost at Li Xiuzhi's house, he found an empty corner in the alley, took out a box of cakes from the space, and walked towards Li Xiuzhi's house.

When he arrived at the door of his house, He Yuzhu happened to see Li Xiuzhi standing at the door: "What are you doing standing at the door in such a cold day?"

"I guessed you would be here soon. I was waiting to see if you would be cold. Why did you buy such expensive things? You don't know how to live," Li Xiuzhi said as she looked at He Yuzhu, whose face was a little red from the cold, and then looked at the things in his hands and complained with heartache.

"I'm not cold, let's not talk here. Where is Li Yue? Tell her to go to my house now." Looking at Li Xiuzhi's expression, He Yuzhu felt warm in his heart.

"I'm here. Brother-in-law, did you bring me any delicious food?" Before Li Xiuzhi could answer, the thin Li Yue appeared from behind.

When Li Xiuzhi heard Li Yue calling her brother-in-law again, she reached out and touched Li Yue's forehead without saying anything.

"I got some pastries for you two sisters. Keep them for when you're hungry," He Yuzhu handed the things to Li Yue and showed them to her.

"Okay, stop looking and let's go back to the house." Li Xiuzhi saw her sister was about to open the box and hurriedly tried to stop her. The little girl made a face at Li Xiuzhi and ran away. Li Xiuzhi hurriedly chased after her.

He Yuzhu went back to the house with the two sisters. After putting their things away, the three of them talked about some interesting things that happened in the past two days and He Yuzhu's work, and time passed.

"It's almost time, let's go to my house now," said He Yuzhu after chatting for a while.

"Why don't you take a break and drink some water?" Li Xiuzhi asked nervously as they were about to set off.

"It's the same if we go back to my house to rest," He Yuzhu said as he walked outside the yard, put Li Yue on the front of the bicycle, and carried Li Xiuzhi on the back seat straight to the courtyard in Nanluoguxiang.

When I arrived at the gate of the courtyard, I ran into the old couple, Uncle and Aunt, who were studying the flowers they had planted.

"Zhuzi, who is this girl?" asked the third aunt when she saw He Yuzhu coming back with a very beautiful girl behind him.

"Auntie, this is my girlfriend. Today is the first time she visits me," He Yuzhu looked at Auntie with a proud look on his face.

"Oh, Zhuzi is quite capable. He found such a beautiful wife and never let any secret out. If we hadn't met today, how long would you have kept it a secret? Even until the wedding night," the third uncle teased He Yuzhu while looking at Li Xiuzhi in front of him.

"Hasn't this just been decided?" He then introduced the third uncle and third aunt to Li Xiuzhi.

"Xiuzhi, these are the three uncles and aunts of this courtyard. They live in the front yard,"

"Uncle, aunt, hello. My name is Li Xiuzhi. I will be living in this courtyard in the future. Please give me your guidance." Looking at the girl in front of them who was so graceful and spoke so straightforwardly, the uncle and aunt nodded and greeted Li Xiuzhi.

Because today is the weekend, there are people coming in and out of the courtyard. The news that He Yuzhu brought his girlfriend back spread throughout the courtyard in an instant. People came out to see the beautiful girl in front of them, and sighed that a flower was stuck in the cow dung of He Yuzhu.

Xu Damao was also coming over from the backyard, "Zhu Zi, I heard that you brought your partner back very quickly, where is it? Let me see."

"Isn't it right in front of us? What do you think?" He Yuzhu pulled Li Xiuzhi over and showed off to Xu Damao.

Xu Damao looked at the girl in front of him and was immediately struck by how much prettier she was than Qin Huairu.

"Hello, my name is Xu Damao," Xu Damao said and stretched out his hand.

Looking at his appearance, He Yuzhu was afraid that Xu Damao's old illness might have relapsed, so he said a few polite words and took Li Xiuzhi to go home.

"Zhuzi, I have something to talk to you about." Seeing He Yuzhu was about to run away, Xu Damao quickly stopped him and said, "I just moved here. Let's have dinner at my place next weekend. Didn't I tell you two days ago that you shouldn't forget about me just because you got married?"

"Don't worry, I won't forget it." He Yuzhu took Li Xiuzhi and left without looking back.

"This silly Zhu is so lucky." Xu Damao said with emotion as he looked at their backs without getting angry.
