Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

Chapter 17 Renovation Completed

After listening to Zhou Tian's explanation of how to make several dishes, He Daqing let out a sigh of relief and said with emotion: "Xiaotian, as the saying goes, listening to your words is worth ten years of reading. Uncle He has been cooking for so many years, but he didn't expect that there are so many tricks to cooking!"

No wonder He Daqing was so emotional. Nowadays, when a craftsman takes in an apprentice, he will generally keep some skills for the apprentice. This is especially common in the chef industry.

As a result, the cooking methods of many dishes have been lost from ancient times to the present. On the contrary, in Zhou Tian's previous life, many food bloggers began to study the lost dishes of ancient times, and then copied the cooking methods and improved them.

Although he was not a chef in his previous life, he was very interested in food and learned how to cook many dishes by watching videos.

Many of his views are different from those of traditional chefs like He Daqing. As the saying goes, there must be a teacher among three people. The collision of different concepts from two eras will naturally inspire He Daqing a lot of inspiration.

He Yuzhu was also nodding his head as he benefited a lot from it.

"Silly Zhu, you have to remember that you are not allowed to spread what Xiaotian said to my father and me today. Otherwise, don't blame me for not recognizing you as my son!"

After expressing his feelings, He Daqing suddenly turned around and spoke solemnly to his son and He Yuzhu.

"Uncle He, there's no need to do this!"

When Zhou Tian heard He Daqing say this, he immediately tried to stop him. After all, he had no intention of becoming a chef. To him, it was just some cooking techniques. It didn't matter even if it was spread.

"No, Xiaotian, you don't understand. Other things can be okay, but this can't be the case!"

He Daqing insisted, looking at his silly son who was looking at him in astonishment, and slapped him on the head and said angrily: "I'm talking to you, do you hear me?"

He Yuzhu was immediately awakened by a slap from He Daqing. He paused and touched his head.

"Dad, don't worry, I know about this and I won't say anything nonsense!"

As a chef, He Yuzhu naturally understood He Daqing's thoughts and knew the rules of the chef industry. He nodded seriously.

Zhou Tian looked at the He family father and son like this. Although he did not agree in his heart, he knew that this was the rule of this era and could only shake his head helplessly.

"Xiaotian, today you have taught my father and me these cooking tips. Uncle He doesn't know how to thank you. So, I will shamelessly thank you with this bottle of fine wine from Uncle He's collection!"

As he said this, he placed the wine and the glass on the table, then poured a glass for Zhou Tian and himself, ignoring his son He Yuzhu who was staring at him hungrily.

"Xiaotian, come, how about trying this wine?"

As he spoke, He Daqing raised his glass, clinked it with Zhou Tian's, and then drank it all in one gulp.

Zhou Tian also followed He Daqing's example and drank the wine in the glass.

Suddenly, a spicy feeling came from the throat and rushed straight to the top of the head.

He couldn't help but frowned, but then he felt a warm current flowing through his body, and his whole body became comfortable.

"Good wine!"

Zhou Tian couldn't help but praise.

He Daqing heard this and laughed, "Of course, this is a fine wine that I have treasured for many years. I would not be willing to give it to ordinary people."

"Dad, let me have a taste too!"

He Yuzhu looked at it with envy and spoke.

"Get lost! It's a sheer waste for you to drink this wine! You can't hold two ounces of this stuff in your stomach!"

He Daqing cursed with a smile.

But even though he was cursing, he still poured a glass for his son.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, in less than half an hour, He Yuzhu fell drunk at the table, leaving He Daqing speechless.

Cursing under his breath, he could only help his son He Yuzhu go home first. After throwing He Yuzhu into the room, he went back to the backyard to pick up He Yushui and left.

Watching He Daqing take He Yushui back, Zhou Tian began to put away the dishes on the table. After washing them, he first took care of his younger brothers and sisters by washing their feet as usual. After sending them to bed, he lay down on the kang and fell asleep.

Perhaps because he drank a little bit of wine today, he fell asleep in a short while.

Nothing happened that night. When he woke up from his biological clock, he could hear the neighbors waking up outside the courtyard, the crying of children, and the scolding of adults.

Zhou Tian originally thought that he would have a headache today because he drank last night, but unexpectedly, he felt exceptionally clear-headed. He couldn't help but admire that the wine of this era was indeed brewed from pure grains.

Unlike in the past, wineries would directly mix in some random chemical raw materials in order to make profits.

After getting up, I lit the stove and heated a pot of water. Then I practiced a set of Xingyiquan, made breakfast, woke up the three children one by one, had breakfast, and watched them go to school.

He then locked the door and walked towards the steel mill.

Time flies like water, and in the blink of an eye, ten days have passed. Today is the day when the renovation of Zhou Tian’s house is completed. For this day, he specially asked someone to ask for leave for the workshop director.

He waited until his younger brothers and sisters went to school before going to the backyard, waiting for Master Lei's arrival. These ten days were simply a torture for Zhou Tian.

Due to the renovation of the rooms at home, he had to live with his younger brother and sister and Uncle He and his son. For this purpose, he specially went to a trust store to buy a big bed.

But what he didn't expect was that the snoring of He Daqing and He Yuzhu at night was so loud that it not only disrupted his study plan, but also prevented Zhou Tian, ​​who already had a light sleep, from having a good night's sleep for ten days.

So after ten days, he didn't want to stay at the He family any longer.

"Master Lei!"

After waiting for less than ten minutes, Master Lei walked in from outside.

"Please forgive me, Master, I am late!"

Master Lei walked up to Zhou Tian with his fists clasped and an apologetic look on his face.

"It's okay, I'm early!"

Zhou Tian shook his head to indicate that he didn't mind.

"Master, how about we inspect the house now?"

Master Lei naturally understood Zhou Tian’s thoughts and spoke.

"it is good!"

Zhou Tian didn't act pretentiously and responded. Master Lei then opened the door with the key and the two of them walked in.

As he walked into the house, Zhou Tian felt his eyes brighten. Although he often came to take a look after get off work in the past ten days, he had never seen the house after the renovation.

Now looking at the layout of the room, Zhou Tian was extremely satisfied. At the same time, he had to admire Yangshi Lei for being worthy of being Yangshi Lei. The structure and layout of the room were exactly what he had thought.

Not only is the attic separated into upper and lower floors, but the layout of the house is just like what he remembered from his previous life. As soon as you enter the door, there is a living room of about 20 square meters, and on one side of the living room is a staircase leading to the attic.

The other side of the wall is connected to the ear room.

Below the attic is a dining room and a bedroom. In addition, there is a small room of ten square meters for storing miscellaneous items.

There are two bedrooms on the attic, one for Zhou Hao and Zhou Yu, and one for Zhou Ting. Each room is nearly 20 square meters in size.

The ear room is also divided into two floors, with two rooms upstairs and downstairs, which serve as guest rooms!

The spacious room and bright light make the entire renovated room comfortable and unique.

"Master Lei, thank you for your hard work!"

Zhou Tian looked at the house, which had been renovated from top to bottom, and became more and more satisfied. He couldn't help but say something to Master Lei.

"Thank you, sir. It is my honor to serve you!"

Upon hearing this, Master Lei quickly spoke to Zhou Tian.

"Okay, then we will officially finish the work today. Here is the remaining two million. Master Lei, count it!"

As he spoke, Zhou Tian took out two million from his pocket and handed it to Master Lei.

Master Lei looked at the money Zhou Tian handed over, and without any pretense, he took it directly, counted it carefully, and nodded after confirming that it was correct.

After all, he has been in this business for so many years, and he knows that people who are willing to spend so much money to renovate their houses should not be short of this money. If he is pretentious, it will make the other party dislike him.

Actually, he had not stayed in the yard for nothing for the past ten days. He had learned from a woman in the yard that although the owner was young, he was already a master in the steel rolling mill, with a monthly salary of at least 700,000 yuan.

Naturally, they would not embezzle their wages.

"Master, since there is nothing else to do, I will take my leave first!"

After counting the money, Master Lei bowed to Zhou Tian and spoke.

"Okay, Master Lei, take care!"

Zhou Tian also bowed to Master Lei.
