Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Li Da looked at the person who just spoke in surprise and said, "Old Ma, how come I didn't know about this? I thought the big pot dishes we eat are all cooked by Master Yang, and Sha Zhu only cooks occasionally. I heard that the guy cooks for the leaders, so how can he cook big pot dishes?"

Old Ma had a smile on his face, with a very strange expression, and said, "You are really too out of touch with the news. Every time Master He finishes cooking a dish, those of us who are close to the kitchen will ask which dish was cooked by Master He."

Li Da was very surprised and said, "How is this possible? Would it be so troublesome just to eat the food? I just can't believe it." Lao Ma curled his lips and said, "You, you think it's not worth it. Then let me ask you, are the dishes cooked by Sha Zhu delicious? Such delicious dishes, you can secretly buy an extra portion and let your wife and children at home have a taste. This is much more delicious than the dishes cooked by the chefs in those restaurants outside."

Li Da nodded and said, "That's right. This big pot of food cooked by Sha Zhu is so much better than the food in the small restaurants outside. No, I have to order one more portion today. Damn, I said you, Lao Ma, run faster than anyone else during lunch every day. It turns out you do it secretly... You, you are such an unfriendly person."

Lao Ma smiled awkwardly and said, "It's not that I'm not a good friend, it's just that Sha Zhu's dishes are so popular. If we had gone late, they would have been snatched up long ago. We came early today, otherwise you would still miss it. Our workshop 12 is relatively close to the cafeteria. For example, the workers in workshops 13 and are lucky enough to be able to eat Sha Zhu's dishes for several days!"

The conversation between the two people was heard by the leader. Because the two people were in front of them, they naturally did not notice the leader behind them. The leader frowned. Could it be that there was such a great chef in the kitchen of a small steel mill? The leader did not believe it. He wanted to see how delicious it was.

In the kitchen, Xu Damao almost drooled at the smell of the big pot of dishes cooked by Sha Zhu. Xu Damao said, "Zhu, your cooking skills are really amazing. These three pots of dishes you cooked are almost sold out." Master Yang also said admiringly, "Master He is worthy of being Master He. I really admire him. The people lining up in front are all for Master He's name. I heard that some people even came to ask which big pot of dishes Master He cooks every day."

Liu Lan said enviously, "Yes, Master He, your cooking skills are really amazing. You are worthy of being a level 6 chef of our Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. To be honest, many female workers in the workshop are secretly asking if you are married. But when they heard that you were married, their expressions were so sad."

While serving the dishes, He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Haha, everyone please stop laughing at me. I am just doing what a chef should do. Everyone can serve the dishes first, and we can learn from each other in the kitchen. It can be considered a skill, and we can make a living by doing so."

Liu Lan asked curiously, "Master He, aren't you afraid that we will learn your skills and let the apprentice starve to death?" He Yuzhu smiled and said, "I'm not afraid at all, because although I am a chef, I don't rely on cooking in big pots. Besides, I have great confidence in myself. Even if you practice for another ten years, you can't be as good as me."

Xu Damao smiled at the side. He felt that Sha Zhu's words were a bit pretentious. But smelling the aroma of Sha Zhu's cooking, he felt that Sha Zhu's words made sense. Otherwise, he could become Sha Zhu's apprentice and be a chef, which would be a promising career. But he shook his head again. He and Sha Zhu had grown up together, and he was still very unhappy to be Sha Zhu's apprentice.

"Oh, Master He, you are serving the dishes yourself. I have to say that your cooking skills are really amazing." Old Ma walked over and complimented He Yuzhu in the window. He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Old Ma, even if you talk me into words, I will give you as many dishes as you want." He Yuzhu served Old Ma a spoonful of dishes, not too much, not too little.

Old Ma smiled and said, "This is not me bragging, this is the result of your and the master's skills. Your dish is really delicious. Can you make another portion for me today? I plan to take it home and let my children try it." Old Ma handed over the two lunch boxes with a smile, and also put the money and tickets into He Yuzhu's hand.

He Yuzhu thought for a while and said, "Okay, Lao Ma, you are a family-oriented person." Seeing that He Yuzhu agreed, Lao Ma was very happy in his heart and said, "Okay, then I would like to thank you, Master He. My kid has been craving for your dish for a long time, and he has been making trouble next to me every day. Now he is finally behaving himself."

He Yuzhu was very satisfied. After all, the attitude of the customers could reflect how well he cooked the dish. When Lao Ma took away an extra portion of the dish, the workers behind him started to make a fuss. Guo Dapiezi said in his hoarse voice, "Lao Ma, you took away an extra portion of the dish. What are we, the workers, going to eat? This is not okay. Everyone, do you agree?"

The people behind them started to make a fuss after being instigated by Guo Da Piezi. After all, He Yuzhu's dishes were really delicious. If others ordered more, it didn't mean that they had to order less, or that they wouldn't be able to eat today. He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Hey, Guo Da Piezi, come on. Old Ma's son is not in good health, so please forgive him."

Facing the workers behind him with awkward smiles, Lao Ma said apologetically, "Brothers, I, Lao Ma, was greedy. But my son has been in very poor health and he likes to eat the dishes cooked by Master He. Please be understanding and I apologize to you all."

Guo Dapiezi was a little embarrassed. He smiled bitterly and said, "Lao Ma, I didn't mean to target you with what I said just now. I was wrong, brother. Your son is in poor health, so let Master He beat him more. We are all big and strong, and it's enough for us to just eat well."

In this era, human feelings are very strong. After hearing what Lao Ma said, the workers who were very noisy just now quickly stopped and said, "Yes, Lao Guo is right. But except Lao Ma, no one else can beat him without a legitimate reason. After all, Master He's food is comparable to the level of restaurants outside. We have to make suggestions to the factory leaders, and Master He has to make a few more pots of big pots? Otherwise, some people can eat and some can't, which is a bit awkward, isn't it?"
