Siheyuan, Rainwater is the master, Shazhu wins

Chapter 25 He Yushui Rejects the Deaf Old Lady's Request

At this time, the deaf old lady pushed open the door without hesitation and walked into He Yushui's room.

He Yushui, who was immersed in joy, was stunned for a moment.

"Yushui, why haven't you gone to work yet?" the deaf old lady asked softly.

"Madam, why did you come to me so suddenly?"

"It's so unsafe to go out alone. What if you fall?" He Yushui said with pretended concern.

"Haha, it's okay, I'm used to going out alone." The deaf old lady replied with a smile.

Then, the deaf old lady asked curiously: "I heard that you are now a chef, and your cooking skills are better than your brother's! I never thought of that!"

He Yushui scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said modestly: "No, no, it's just a compliment from everyone."

The deaf old lady said with emotion: "I don't have any other hobbies. I'm old and don't have many years left to live. I just want to try some delicious food."

"Rainwater, you are the child I have watched grow up. Since you can bring back a lunch box for your brother every day, can you bring one for me as well?"

"I don't eat much, one lunch box is enough. I have a small appetite." After saying this, the deaf old lady showed an expectant look.

She was also risking her reputation. After all, if she wanted to eat delicious food, she had to take the initiative to ask.

Although the food cooked by the man in Yi Zhonghai's family tastes good, it is still inferior to that of a real chef.

He Yushui never expected that the deaf old lady could be so shameless and could make such a request so confidently and high-soundingly.

Thinking back to those days, she clearly remembered that whenever her brother was not at home and she was starving, this so-called relative never offered her a helping hand.

What’s even worse is that even the deaf old lady refused to give her a bite of food during the most difficult times.

Now, her brother is in trouble, but she doesn’t even show up!

She did come today, but as soon as she opened her mouth she made all kinds of requests and even asked her to help bring her lunch box.

"Old lady, aren't you making things difficult for me?"

"I just reported to the factory, and the leader clearly stipulated that I can only bring a lunch box for my brother." He Yushui said helplessly, spreading his hands.

"So, I really can't help you with this. It's hard enough for me to take care of my brother, and I really don't have the energy to do it. You should go ask the uncle for help."

"You have to trust the old man. As long as he's around, I guarantee you won't go hungry. It's better than the leftovers I have."

As He Yushui spoke, she glanced at the wall clock. The hour hand had pointed to 9:20, and she knew it was time for her to leave for the factory.

"Madam, it's getting late. Please go back. I have to go to work in the factory."

Before he finished speaking, He Yushui opened the door without hesitation and asked the deaf old lady to go out.

She turned back into the house and began packing her things, preparing to set off for the steel mill to start a new day of work.

The deaf old lady could never have imagined that He Yushui, who was usually docile and well-behaved, would be so determined today. She secretly regretted in her heart: I should have expected this ending...

The deaf old lady turned away with a dejected look on her face. Watching her gradually receding figure, He Yushui muttered to herself, "This old lady's legs and feet are quite agile! It seems that she was deliberately pretending to be slow to walk just now... Maybe she was even pretending to be deaf!"

It was not until this moment that He Yushui suddenly realized - it turned out that not only was the deaf old lady acting, but even her brother was actually a master of disguise!

She couldn't help but sigh: "These people are getting smarter as they get older! They are all very secretive and good at disguising themselves.

I didn't expect that my brother, at such a young age, could actually use such a trick. It's really unbelievable!"

After locking the door, He Yushui walked straight into her brother's room. As soon as she entered, she saw her brother sitting there leisurely, looking like he had nothing to do.

So he got very angry and walked up to him and said unhappily:

"Brother, the deaf old lady came over just now and asked me to help bring her lunch box. Humph, I refused without saying a word!"

"well done!"

He Yuzhu nodded with satisfaction to show his approval, and then began to complain indignantly.

"That old woman is so annoying! She just kept nagging me for a long time, and all she said was the truth, which made me feel sick!"

"Okay, you should go to work quickly, it's getting late."

After hearing what his brother said, He Yushui nodded obediently.

Then he quickly closed the door, got on his bike and rushed towards the steel mill.

The deaf old lady returned to her room angrily, sat down on the edge of the bed, and muttered: "He Yushui, you are so arrogant that you dare not take me, an old woman, seriously!"

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She simply lay down and didn't even bother to eat lunch.

At the same time, He Yushui rode a bicycle into the steel rolling mill.

When he arrived at the factory gate, he took the initiative to greet the security officer. Coincidentally, that person was the one who stopped him last time, and now they have become somewhat of a acquaintance.

Afterwards, He Yushui came to the cafeteria and saw Ma Hua and others busy.

She walked closer and found that the buns had been steamed and were about to be put into the steamer.

The big pot of food for lunch was also prepared by Ma Hua and other kitchen helpers. When Ma Hua saw He Yushui coming, he hurried forward and said, "Master, you are here! We have prepared all the dishes. Is there anything else you need?"

He Yushui glanced at the table and saw peeled potatoes, washed cabbage, carrots and other vegetables on it.

He couldn't help but frown and asked, "Ma Hua, why is there no meat at noon?"

"Yeah, normally I only eat meat once a week, so naturally there's none today."

She nodded slightly to show that she understood.

"Okay then, remember to remind me when it's half past ten. I'll drink some tea now and relax myself a little." As he spoke, he picked up the teacup and took a sip, then closed his eyes and slowly savored the fragrance of the tea.

"Okay, Master! Please wait a moment, the tea is ready. Besides, this is Master's favorite tea!" The little girl smiled and handed a cup of steaming hot tea to the other party.

"Well, it turns out that you know your master's taste best. By the way, come back directly after delivering lunch today. I will wash the lunch box when I get back." The nun took the tea and said with a smile.

"No problem, Master! Everything is up to you." After receiving the reply, the little girl nodded obediently.

At ten o'clock, He Yushui was drinking tea leisurely. After all, there was still half an hour before the big pot meal was ready!
