Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Chapter 261 The Gratitude of Qin Dagou and His Brothers

He Yuzhu took a sip of white wine, smiled and said, "I wonder if you two brothers know about wild vegetables that can grow in winter, such as shepherd's purse and wild celery." The two nodded naturally. He Yuzhu smiled and said, "You also know that I am the head chef in the cafeteria. It is winter now, and it is difficult for us to find ordinary seasonal vegetables. Moreover, those vegetables are very expensive in winter. I want to try cooking wild vegetables and see."

He Yuzhu thought for a while, stretched out a finger and said, "Whether it is shepherd's purse, wild celery or something else, I can buy it for five cents per pound. You can let your children or your wife go to the fields to take a look, so that you can have some income."

Qin Dagou and his wife nodded with a smile. Those things can be found everywhere in the countryside. Although they can be eaten, they will not be used as food unless necessary. Because if they are not cooked well, they are very unpalatable. There is a lack of seasoning in the countryside. It is impossible to add a lot of seasoning to a little wild vegetable, so these wild vegetables are treated like chicken ribs in the countryside.

The Qin brothers were very grateful and toasted He Yuzhu with several glasses of wine. They secretly made up their minds that although they had not received much education, they knew that if someone gave them face, they should repay them. Next time, they must bring some game for their cousin and brother-in-law. Winter is the slack season for farming, and young people will go hunting in the mountains together, so game can still be obtained.

The three of them finished two bottles of Moutai, and the Qin Dagou brothers supported each other to go to the guest room to rest. The two of them lay on the bed, and Qin Ergou smacked his lips and said, "Brother, this wine brought by my cousin's husband is really delicious. What's its name? Moutai, oh, Moutai. Next time when we brothers make money, we must buy a bottle to try."

Qin Dagou looked at his brother in silence. He must know the price of this bottle of Moutai. Once when he went to work at the home of a village party secretary, he heard the village party secretary bragging about the price of this bottle of Moutai. This bottle of Moutai costs five yuan. How much does it cost to marry a wife in the countryside? Qin Dagou suppressed the urge to tell his brother how expensive this bottle of Moutai was and closed his eyes silently.

The two brothers had eaten and drunk a lot at He Yuzhu's house today, which made this honest man feel a little guilty. He shook his head helplessly. Although the two brothers saw the prosperity of the city today, he felt that some people in the city were not as good as the people in their country. Shaking his head, Qin Dagou snored and fell asleep.

In the bedroom of He Yuzhu and his wife, Qin Huairu hugged He Yuzhu's neck tightly, and said cheesy words one by one. This made He Yuzhu very happy, and he sighed. If today's events were put in the previous life, these dishes would definitely be complained by his wife. Maybe his wife's family would be unhappy because of this, and there would be some estrangement between the two families.

Although materials were scarce in this era, the feelings between people were not mixed with any money. He Yuzhu liked this simple era. He closed his eyes and felt the warmth of his wife, and slowly fell asleep. He Yuzhu didn't know what happened to Yan Fugui's family in the end, but he slept until dawn the next day.

Qin Dagou and his wife had already gotten up and cleaned the kitchen of He Yuzhu's house. The big water tank was full of water, which made He Yuzhu very satisfied. The two brothers were really down-to-earth. Qin Dagou smiled and said, "Huai Ru, brother-in-law, we brothers are leaving first. We didn't go home last night, and our family must be worried."

He Yuzhu said, "Brothers, finish your breakfast at our house, and then go back." Qin Dagou wanted to say something? After all, eating and drinking felt a bit bad. He didn't want his sister to lose face in her husband's house, so He Yuzhu smiled and held them both and said, "It doesn't take a little time, Huairu should have prepared breakfast by now."

Qin Huairu walked out of the kitchen with a smile on her face. She was quite satisfied with what her husband had just said. She could imagine that when her two brothers returned to Qinjiazhuang, they would tell the young ladies and wives in Qinjiazhuang about what happened in the city. They would be so jealous of her.

The two brothers had no choice but to have another breakfast at He Yuzhu's house. Before leaving, He Yuzhu stuffed two bottles of wine for the two brothers. He Yuzhu was not that interested in drinking, so the two bottles of wine were just placed at home, so he simply gave them to the two brothers-in-law as a parting gift.

Qin Huairu smiled and persuaded, "Brother Dagou and Brother Ergou, just take it. My man doesn't like to drink. It was only because you two came last night that my man drank a little to keep him company. When you go back, say hello to my parents for me, and be careful on the way."

The Qin Dagou brothers nodded, and the two of them left the courtyard with the wine. Qin Huairu went to see off his sister He Yushui first. Although children of this generation were not so pampered and went to school by themselves, He Yuzhu and his wife were still a little scared, fearing that He Yushui would have an accident on the way.

Fortunately, Qin Huairu didn't have anything to do every day, so she just took it as a daily walking exercise. He Yuzhu rode his bicycle towards the steel mill. Just as he was about to leave the courtyard gate, he saw Xu Damao running out in a panic and said, "Brother Zhu, Brother Zhu, can you give me a ride? Today is my first day to report. If I'm late, it will definitely give the propaganda chief a bad impression."

He Yuzhu nodded. This was not a difficult task. Although Xu Damao was sitting in the back seat of the car, it was not a problem for He Yuzhu at all. His body was very strong, especially after the system transformation during this period of time, it can be said that his strength was even greater.
