Cao Anping returned to the courtyard and felt that the courtyard was quiet and peaceful.

This made him very suspicious: "Does it really depend on Jia Zhangshi whether the courtyard is messy or not?

In this way, am I not doing good deeds and accumulating virtue? '

When Cao Anping walked into the backyard, he happened to meet Shu's mother walking towards the middle yard with a basin, probably to fetch water.

Shu's mother greeted him warmly: "Doctor Cao is off work, thank you so much for what happened that day.

If there is anything that needs washing or cleaning at home, you can leave it to me. I don’t have much to do anyway, so I can still help with a little bit.”

Cao Anping immediately became alert. The routine seemed familiar. Wasn't this the trick Qin Huairu used to deal with Sha Zhu?

However, when he saw the other person's sincere eyes, he secretly cursed himself for being too sensitive. Perhaps the other person just wanted to express his gratitude.

Cao Anping smiled and politely declined, "No, no, we are all neighbors, just helping out a little, don't mind, I believe others will not stand idly by."

Shu's mother doesn't like most people in this courtyard, and she really doesn't think that these people will help her.

Seeing that the other party wanted to say something, Cao Anping quickly changed the subject: "Auntie, are you feeling better?"

Shu's mother smiled with a forced smile before answering, "It's just an old problem, nothing serious..."

She seemed to be hesitant to speak, and in the end she didn't get to ask the question. Although she was weak that day, her mind was still clear.

She clearly heard that old doctor Huang say that Cao Anping's medical skills were very high and he seemed to be unable to catch up with him.

Looking at the status of Dr. Huang in the hospital, many associations can be made.

Shu's mother really wanted to ask Cao Anping if he had any way to treat her illness, but she was too embarrassed to ask. After all, the two families had just met.

Cao Anping didn't know what the other party was thinking, but he kindly reminded him:

"The weather is too cold, Auntie, you'd better go out as little as possible, and stay away from cold water, otherwise your condition may worsen.

Okay, I won't keep you any longer, I'll go back first."

"Uh... I see. Thank you for your reminder." Seeing Cao Anping's back as he entered the room, Shu's mother's expression was both complicated and full of gratitude.

She chatted with Cao Anping and really got to know him better. After all, on the surface, he was indeed quite outstanding.

However, seeing that Cao Anping seemed to be polite yet distant and defensive, Shu's mother gave up some of her ideas.

She always thought that her daughter was very outstanding and was just being held back by herself. There was no need to rush and embarrass her daughter.

Once some words are spoken, neighbors will see each other everywhere, which will inevitably lead to awkwardness in the future.

Shu's mother sighed and walked towards the central courtyard, still thinking about which matchmaker to find to find out more about the situation. She had to find a support for her daughter before she left.

It has to be said that parents’ concerns about their children are sometimes irrational.

With Shu Meng's current status as a formal worker, no one can bully her as long as she is not too weak.

Cao Anping returned home and started cooking.

He basically cooks only once a week now, and then makes a lot at once and stores it in the space.

Nowadays, every household cooks either cabbage or radish, and there is no smell. However, Cao Anping always keeps the stove burning and heating water when he comes home every day, so no one suspects that he doesn't cook.

Cao Anping took out the ten pounds of beef he had just drawn and cut most of it to make braised beef.

He looked at the pot in his hand with some disdain. If it were a little bigger, he could have stewed all the food in it. He sighed that the earthen stove in the countryside was still better.

Then he added all the braised meat seasoning packets, rock sugar, salt, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, sweet noodle sauce, bean paste, onion, ginger, garlic, chili peppers, etc. drawn by the system.

Cao Anping didn’t know if this was right, but he read the instructions on the braised meat seasoning package and it was roughly like this.

He thought with some pride: 'With just these few seasonings, even the soles of shoes can be cooked to give them a nice aroma, haha...

Cooking skills are not that important in this era, all ingredients and seasonings are the final word.'

Cao Anping covered the pot tightly and closed the doors and windows tightly. Given his income and special status as a doctor, he was not afraid of being reported for stewing meat once a week.

But now is a year of famine after all, and he still doesn't want to be too annoying.

After stewing the beef, he began to prepare other dishes. After all, a week's worth of food couldn't be too monotonous. There had to be at least three or four dishes.

Perhaps life was too boring, this rich kid who had never done any housework in his previous life now found cooking quite interesting.

Not long after, people who worked in the hospital came back one after another.

I don’t know what kind of magic potion Yi Zhonghai used to persuade Jia Dongxu, but the master and disciple are having fun again.

After entering the yard, he raised his voice and asked, "Dongxu, I went back, how are your mother's affairs arranged?

Are the twenty kilograms of food I brought enough?"

Jia Dongxu replied gratefully: "My mother is doing well. She has already hired someone to help reinforce the old house. I have also sent all the food back to her. She is hiding at home for the winter and has no worries about food and drink.

It’s just that… all the food was given to my mother, and there wasn’t enough for the family.”

Of course, in reality, Jia Zhang's life was definitely not that easy, after all, there was no one to serve her.

However, it was naturally difficult for Jia Dongxu to openly admit that his mother was suffering. That would be a slap in his face and people would say that he was an unfilial son.

Yi Zhonghai nodded with satisfaction. He said these words openly just to get rid of the bad reputation of his mother who drove away his apprentice.

Everyone in the courtyard knew that he was still providing food to help Jia Zhang, so naturally some of the bad impressions would be alleviated.

Well, although the people around who heard it felt a little jealous, they really thought that Yi Zhonghai had done his best.

Yi Zhonghai noticed the looks of the crowd and felt proud. He then asked with concern:

"As for home, Master, I will help you think of a solution. You can't go hungry anyway."

After hearing this, Jia Dongxu was so grateful that he wanted to kowtow to Yi Zhonghai. He even felt a little guilty about his previous misunderstanding.

That was really easy to do. I have to say that Yi Zhonghai has been blocking Jia Dongxu's machinist test, which is really a brilliant move. It really proves that people who are needed can be fearless.

When it was dinner time for everyone, everyone in the courtyard, from the backyard to the middle yard and front yard, began to sniff as if they smelled the aroma of meat.

Perhaps Cao Anping added too many ingredients, or perhaps he stewed it for too long, and even if the doors and windows were closed, the smell of meat mixed with various spices could not be concealed.

Everyone who smelled it swallowed at the same time and looked in the direction of Cao Anping's room.

Everyone felt a little speechless, but he was the leader, and he could feed the whole family and he only ate meat once a week, so there didn't seem to be anything to blame.

Of course, the most important thing is that everyone knows that Cao Anping is not a good person and no one dares to have any bad thoughts.
