Siheyuan: A Cook in the 60s

"surprise?"

"Don't be frightened. Can you give us a grandson?" Cao Wei raised his eyebrows.

He didn't really care about what happened in the yard.

"Go to hell! Xiucheng knows what's going on!" Qin Huairu pushed Cao Wei unhappily, "Besides, he's old enough. Xiucheng was born in 63, right? He's 22 this year, so it's time."

Cao Xiucheng has been away for quite a while. When he was in college, he was still young, but when he went abroad to study, he was 22 years old and had already graduated with a doctorate.

According to him, he wanted to get another degree, which would probably take another year or so.

Cao Wei quietly told him to see if there was any way to get some advanced equipment, medical equipment would be fine.

When it comes to medical equipment, it is completely different from medicine.

This takes a lot of effort.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Come on, let's buy some flour and go home to make mooncakes. Let him take care of that brat himself." Cao Wei took the hands of his two ladies and walked towards the street.

"Hey hey hey?! What about me! What about me!" Qin Jingru couldn't stand it anymore.

"You two stick together every day, how about you lend us your throne for a while? As the queen, you should behave like one." Lou Xiao'e looked at Qin Xiaozhu with a smile.

This made Qin Xiaozhu very angry. He wanted to get angry, but he had no excuse. So he stretched out his hand and started to rebel by grabbing Cao Wei's waist.

Cao Wei was so angry that he grimaced: "I say, Lou Xiaogou, you are just hoping that the world will not be in chaos!"

"What happened?"

The four of them solved the purchasing issues with a smile on their faces. Just as they reached the door, they were stopped by the third uncle.

Look at the embarrassed look on the third uncle's face.

Lou Xiaoe understood.

"Let's go, sisters, go home and get ready."

"I should be the one saying this!" Qin Jingru said angrily.

"Then you go ahead."

"That's pretty much it!"

"In ancient times, maids always walked in front."

I seem to have heard this sentence many years ago.

Qin Jingru bared her teeth at Lou Xiaoe. No matter what, she would walk in front!

Qin Huairu covered her face in the back, how old is she, yet she is still so childish...

The third uncle gave Cao Wei a thumbs up and said, "You are still the best."

Not many people knew that Cao Wei had three women, and there weren't many good people in the courtyard. Qin Huairu's family was doing well now, and Cao Wei's family was also very rich. The two families were real relatives, so it was normal for them to be closer. As for Lou Xiao'e, she had a partnership with Cao Wei. There were rumors that Cao Wei's restaurant was built with the help of Lou Xiao'e.

The fundamental reason is that Qin Jingru and Lou Xiao'e used to be good friends. Everyone knows that after Qin Jingru came to the yard, the two of them became so close that they were almost like one family.

Most people only see the surface and won’t look deeper. If they delve deeper, they will cross the line.

The third uncle is different from the first uncle, Lou Xiaoe told her that directly.

As for Qin Huairu.

Uncle Sanye had guarded the door for many years, and it wasn't in vain. He had seen these two sneakily having sex under the tree at the corner of the alley several times. It must be said that this young man, ah, no, this Cao Wei, is very playful.

"Hehe." Cao Wei chuckled.

The third uncle had been terrified of him over the years and was extremely wary of him, for fear that he would get close to his daughter-in-law.

Cao Wei was speechless. He was the kind of person Cao was. Three people were enough to cause trouble. Besides, if they really wanted to take Yu Li, would they still be neighbors? And Qin Jingru didn't care that Cao Wei had Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu. She took advantage of her youth and lack of experience to get them. Now there's another person. Do you think Qin Jingru is grinning?

"I said, old man, you stopped me, not to talk about this matter, right?"

"Hey, there is something I want to discuss with you."

"Shall we stand here and discuss this?"

"Look at what you said. Come on, I'll take you somewhere else."

The third uncle leads the way.

After a while, the two arrived at the tree at the corner of the alley. Yes, it was the tree where Cao Wei had had a snack with Qin Huairu before.

Cao Wei: ...

Okay, okay, Uncle San, you know how to have fun.

"There's no one here." The third uncle chuckled.

"Well, go ahead and tell me what you think. I won't argue with you."

"I just want to ask, do you know what those two guys Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu are doing?"

"I know."

The third uncle was choked by the sudden "I know", but his mind was quick: "Then do you think the work they do is reliable?"

"What? You want to get involved too?" Cao Wei raised his eyebrows.

"Hehe, I want to earn some money more or less." The third uncle rubbed his hands.

"Uncle, you've come to the wrong person. I can't give you an answer on this." Cao Wei shook his head, took out a cigarette, handed it to the uncle, and lit one for himself.

"Hey, why can't you give an answer? Your Samadhi Building is so big..."

"Hey, Third Uncle, that's different." Cao Wei waved his hand and said, "Speaking of which, I started learning cooking when I was seven years old, and opened Samadhi Restaurant when I was thirty-seven. I have been practicing cooking for thirty years. I think it's not an exaggeration to say that I have learned it step by step."

"It's not too much." The third uncle nodded subconsciously.

"I spent 30 years opening a restaurant, but that's only half of my success."

“Is this only halfway accomplished?”

"You misunderstood. That's not what I meant. The reason for success cannot be entirely my fault. I opened a restaurant and can only guarantee the taste. As for how to run it, I don't know. That's what Lou Xiao'e does. Lou Xiao'e, you should know that before liberation, my family was in business. Later, when we went to Hong Kong, we also did business. It was with the blessing of this experience and the permission from the higher-ups that we succeeded."

"Everything we have learned along the way has a traceable path, and it is accumulated slowly. I don't know how to make quick money, and I haven't tried it, nor do I dare to try. So, I can't give you any experience in this regard." Cao Wei waved his hand and patted the third uncle on the shoulder: "Originally, I shouldn't say this, but you, take it easy, don't put your own capital on it."

The third uncle looked at Cao Wei's back as he left, stood there for a while, and then went home.

After returning home, Yan Jiecheng looked at his old father and said, "Dad, what do you think? Do you want to invest? You can make a lot of money."

"I won't join." The third uncle waved his hand.

"Why? Wasn't he fine just now?"

"Cao Wei said it was inappropriate."

"Ah? He still cares about this?" Yan Jiecheng was fed up and became a little anxious: "No, Dad, why does he have to decide what to say?!"

"He didn't say it was inappropriate. He is a man who always knows how to behave and do things in moderation. If I ask him, he won't give me any advice."
