Early the next morning,

Li Xiuzhi handed her sister over to Wu Cuiling in the backyard to help look after her after dinner, and went home to wake up He Yuzhu who was sleeping late.

"Sister-in-law, what do you want to eat morning?" He Yushui asked as he walked into the room with sleepy eyes.

"Steamed buns, millet porridge, and the kimchi your brother made yesterday or a few days ago. Go wash your face quickly and eat. How can you behave like this, a grown-up girl?" Li Xiuzhi lectured He Yushui while holding the bowl and chopsticks.

"Okay, I'll go right away," he said, and went back to his room to wash his face and brush his teeth.

After that, they had breakfast and went to the steel mill to start a new day of work.

"Master, have some tea." As soon as He Yuzhu entered the kitchen, Ma Hua came over with a large teacup.

He Yuzhu took the teacup and saw that Ma Hua was standing beside him without moving. He knew something was wrong. "Tell me what's the matter. Can the master help me?"

"Master, since I became your disciple, although I am still far behind you, I have learned how to cook big pot dishes, so I have some skills to make a living."

"So my family introduced a partner to me. We just decided on each other two days ago. We are planning to get married in a few days and would like to invite you to come," Ma Hua said embarrassedly.

"This is a good thing, Master, I will definitely go," He Yuzhu agreed immediately.

"Master, my senior brother is getting married the day after tomorrow, and he just invited Liu Lan and me to help," Gao Jianshe said, coming out from the side.

"He mainly wants to use Master He's bicycle to pick up his new bride. Not only Master He's, but also your master's wife's, right?" Liu Lan teased Ma Hua.

Ma Hua blushed and lowered her head, not daring to speak. Everyone saw this and spoke even louder.

He Yuzhu quickly dissuaded them from doing so: "Stop making a fuss and get busy. Ma Hua's marriage is a big deal."

"How about this, I will lend you my car and your master's wife's car. If it's not enough, I'll lend you the rainwater one, so you can go pick up your wife in style."

"Really, thank you, Master," Ma Hua no longer cared about being shy, and looked up to thank He Yuzhu.

"What is there to thank me for? Are all the things ready? If you need any help from me, just let me know," He Yuzhu asked with concern.

"Master, now that we have your bicycle, everything is ready," Ma Hua said happily.

He Yuzhu patted Ma Hua on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, my eldest disciple is getting married, and the master will definitely arrive early the day after tomorrow to support you.

Gao Jianshe and Liu Lan also got together to discuss what gift they should give to Ma Hua for his wedding. After all, they had worked together for such a long time and had developed a deep affection for him, so they couldn't go empty-handed.

"Why don't we ask the master what to send? As a female comrade, you must have more experience than me," Gao Jianshe asked Liu Lan after thinking for a long time without any clue.

"Let's choose the same thermos or tea set and then pack it for another dollar. Can what Master He gave us be the same as yours? You'd better think about it yourself," Liu Lan gave Gao Jianshe some advice after hearing what he said.

"That's right, senior brother has followed the master for such a long time, the gift the master gave him must be different from what we give him," Gao Jianshe nodded.

Gao Jianshe decided to go home after get off work in the evening to ask his family to see if they had any good suggestions. After all, he had never given a gift before, let alone attending his senior brother's wedding, so he had no experience.

At this time, He Yuzhu returned to the cafeteria office and met Secretary Li who came to see him: "Master He, I'm here to give you some things that the factory director promised to give you."

"The guests who came yesterday are related to the factory director's career, and they were very satisfied with Master He's craftsmanship. The factory director decided to reward you and also give some food coupons to your apprentices."

Secretary Li whispered to He Yuzhu, then took out a pile of bills from his bag and handed them to He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu simply put it in his pocket and didn't take it out to look at it.

"We make a living by our craft, and we will never destroy our reputation, Director. Please rest assured of this."

"Then I'll go back to the office. There's still a lot of work to do there," Secretary Li said and left He Yuzhu's office.

After Secretary Li left, Liu Lan, who had just been teaching Gao Jianshe a lesson outside, quietly came to He Yuzhu's office.

"Master He, what benefits did Director Li promise to give you? Show them to me."

"How do you know that Director Li will give me benefits?" He Yuzhu asked curiously.

"Li Huaide, I know that man very well. The people he entertains privately are all very important to him. If he asked you to entertain him yesterday, he must have given you benefits, otherwise he would not be Li Huaide," Liu Lan said proudly.

He Yuzhu reluctantly took out the thing in his hand and handed it to Liu Lan for her to see:

"You will die because of your mouth sooner or later. Some things can just be kept in your heart. Other people are not fools and can see that you just insist on saying them out loud. Try to change this bad habit in the future," He Yuzhu gave Liu Lan a suggestion after listening to her words.

"Don't worry, I'm just telling you and I won't tell anyone else. These bills are all good stuff," Liu Lan said to He Yuzhu while looking at the bills in her hand.

Looking at Liu Lan's expression when she held the bill, we knew that Liu Lan's family was in difficulty again, but for some reason she did not go to find Li Huaide.

"Now that you've had enough, it's time to return it to me," He Yuzhu reminded Liu Lan who was holding the receipt.

After hearing what He Yuzhu said, Liu Lan reluctantly returned the bill to He Yuzhu.

"You also want these tickets, especially the food tickets, right? Are you running out of food again?" He Yuzhu took the tickets in his hand and said with a smile, waving them in his hands.

"How do you know?" Liu Lan said in surprise.

"We have worked together for such a long time, but I still don't know you. However, I have never seen you ask me anything. Why did you come to me this time instead of going to see Director Li?" He Yuzhu asked Liu Lan out of curiosity.

"It's all because of Qin Huairu. She has been going to Li Huaide to get things from him recently. If I go to Li Huaide, I will be competing with Qin Huairu for favor."

"I was forced by life, and I didn't want to be on the same level as that vixen, so I didn't go to Director Li to borrow some from you and return it to you later." He Yuzhu didn't expect Liu Lan to have such an idea.

It seems that she still has some sense of shame. If she wasn't really forced, she wouldn't have taken this path.

He Yuzhu thought about it and gave some more food coupons to Liu Lan, saying, "These are given to you, you don't have to pay them back."

"Really, why are you so generous? Or do you like me and want me to marry you? But aren't you married?" Liu Lan asked He Yuzhu in surprise, holding the bill in her hand.

"Who is interested in you? These bills originally belonged to you. Director Li asked me to divide them among you. I guess Ma Hua and Gao Jianshe still benefited from you," He Yuzhu said to Liu Lan angrily.

"It was really given to me by Director Li. It wasn't something you gave me out of pity for me so that I could repay you," Liu Lan asked somewhat embarrassedly.

"Get out of here. Am I, He Yuzhu, that kind of person? Am I as dirty as you think? Do you want it or not? If you don't want it, I'll take it home. After all, who doesn't like food coupons?" He Yuzhu stretched out his hand to snatch the food coupons back from Liu Lan.

"Thank you, Master He. I'll leave first." Upon hearing this, Liu Lan bowed to He Yuzhu, picked up the food coupons in his hand and ran out.

He Yuzhu shook his head. This was the biggest difference between Liu Lan and Qin Huairu. Liu Lan was a bit sharp-tongued but she was still a good person and had a sense of shame.

"If these benefits were given to Qin Huairu, I guess she wouldn't even say thank you, she would put them in her pocket right away and even complain that you gave her too little.
