Siheyuan, I became a commercial tycoon in the culinary world

Chapter 6 Negotiating Terms with He Daqing

"Okay!..." Yu Shui sat down at the table happily.

He Yuzhu opened the lunch box containing shredded pork with fish flavor, heated it up in the kitchen, and brought it out.

"It smells so good..." He Daqing couldn't help but praise.

"Dad, this is the shredded pork with fish flavor that I cooked. The chef said that my cooking skills have improved. I can bring back a dish every day from now on." He Yuzhu put the shredded pork with fish flavor on the table.

"Zhuzi, well done. It's not easy to get the recognition from Master Li!" He Daqing praised He Yuzhu happily.

He Yuzhu remained calm, but was thinking in his heart how to talk to his father about his plan to leave with the White Widow after Yu Shui fell asleep.

"Brother, the fish-flavored shredded pork you fried is so delicious..." He Yushui didn't care about all that and just picked up the food with chopsticks and started eating.

He Daqing couldn't help laughing as he watched his daughter wolfing down the food, and he felt even more guilty towards Yu Shui.

"Eat slowly, be careful not to choke..." He Daqing touched his daughter's head and gently advised.

After he finished speaking, he picked up his bowl and chopsticks and started eating. After tasting the shredded pork with fish flavor made by He Yuzhu, he praised it highly in his heart. He had to say that Zhuzi's cooking was almost as good as his own.

After dinner, He Yuzhu sent He Yushui to the small room to do homework.

After making arrangements for He Yushui, He Yuzhu returned to the main house and saw his father He Daqing leisurely sipping tea with a satisfied smile on his face. He was obviously very satisfied with his performance today.

He tiptoed to his father's side and sat down, preparing for the heavy topic he was about to discuss.

"Dad, are you going to Baoding with the White Widow?" He Yuzhu hesitated for a moment and finally said it.

He Daqing was stunned. He didn't expect his son to suddenly ask about this matter, and also knew that he was going to run away.

"Zhu Zi, how do you know about this?..." He Daqing was surprised.

"Dad, don't worry about how I know this. I just want to ask you if you are going to abandon me and Yu Shui and leave..." He Yuzhu interrupted his father anxiously.

He Daqing looked at his son's dark eyes and felt an involuntary pain in his heart. For some reason, he felt ashamed in front of his son.

"Zhu Zi, don't worry! Dad won't abandon you and Yu Shui! I will arrange everything..." He Daqing said guiltily.

When He Yuzhu heard his father's answer, he thought to himself, you still have some conscience, but he still felt unwilling.

Although he is a modern person who traveled through time and can take good care of Yu Shui, He Daqing is going to abandon his own children and help raise someone else's son, which is related to the issue of abandonment.

"Dad, why do you insist on going to Baoding with the White Widow? Do you have any unspeakable secrets?"

He tried his best to make his tone sound calm; he didn't want to have a big argument with He Daqing.

He Daqing sighed, put down the teacup in his hand, and his eyes became deep and complicated.

"Zhu Zi, there are some things you don't understand yet. The White Widow... She is actually an old friend of mine from many years ago.

There are some unresolved grievances between us, but also a friendship that is hard to give up. This trip to Baoding is to settle some old matters and also to give her an explanation. "

“But, Dad, have you ever considered the feelings of me and Yu Shui? What should we do if you suddenly leave?”

There was a hint of sob in He Yuzhu's voice, he couldn't imagine the day when he suddenly lost his father with such little rain.

This was how he had lived in his previous life, so he knew how lonely and helpless a child would be in this world without the protection of his parents.

He Daqing reached out and gently patted He Yuzhu's shoulder, his eyes full of kindness and apology.

"Zhu Zi, Dad knows that this is unfair to you, but it is a responsibility I must face.

However, I promise you that no matter what the outcome is, I will make sure everything is in place to ensure that you can live a carefree life after I leave."

He Yuzhu was silent for a while, knowing that the situation was irreversible. He also vaguely understood that He Daqing must have his own difficulties behind his decision.

He looked up at his father, a determined gleam in his eyes.

"Dad, if you really have to go, you can transfer the two houses to me and Yushui, and give us 500 yuan for living expenses. Before Yushui becomes an adult, the monthly living allowance of 10 yuan cannot be less.

Don’t send this money to others. I’ve grown up. Just send it to me. Also, you have to buy me a bicycle. Otherwise, it will be inconvenient for me to pick you up in the rain or go to get off work in the future…”

The reason why He Yuzhu proposed to buy a bicycle was that he knew that buying a bicycle would require a ticket in the future, which was too difficult, but it was not necessary now.

"Zhu Zi..." He Daqing was shocked by He Yuzhu's request, but looking at his son's determined face, he finally nodded and agreed to his son's request.

He Yuzhu was relieved when he saw his father nod. Looking at He Daqing's face full of guilt, he felt a sour feeling in his heart, but he had no way to vent it.

"Okay, Zhuzi, ask Master Li for half a day off tomorrow morning, and we'll go to the Military Control Commission together. I'll transfer the house to you and help you save 100 yuan. I'll also give you yuan to help you and Yushui transition to our current life.

As for work, if you want to stay in Fengze Garden, then stay in Fengze Garden. If you don’t want to stay, I have also made an agreement with Director Lou that you can go directly to the kitchen of the steel rolling mill to work…”

He Daqing spoke at a steady pace, but He Yuzhu could hear deep helplessness and fatigue in his speech.

"Okay, I understand!" He Yuzhu responded, then took his leave and went back to his room. He lay on the bed, tossing and turning, but still couldn't fall asleep.

He didn't know how He Daqing told Yu Shui about this matter after he left. Yu Shui was too young and would definitely not be able to bear losing his father all of a sudden.

While closing his eyes to rest, he actually came to the Qiantang River where he fell into the water in his previous life. However, the river seemed very calm, without any waves, and there was a wooden boat parked on the river.

Going further back on the beach, there is a yard with two entrances and one exit. The yard is full of green grass, a few willow trees, and a few cherry trees in the distance. When the wind blows, the petals fly.

"Is this the benefit reserved for us time travelers? I have read many books about time travel, and other time travelers all come with golden fingers and systems.

Why did I only get a river and a yard after traveling through time?..."

He Yuzhu muttered and walked towards the yard curiously.

He found it a little hard to believe that if time travelers had no welfare, how would they survive the coming years of famine.

Thinking this, He Yuzhu walked in and visited the main hall and several bedrooms. Finally, He Yuzhu walked into the big kitchen.

He Yuzhu took a look at the kitchen and found that it was fully equipped with a set of new pots and pans, a pair of bowls and chopsticks, two vegetable baskets, and a stove.

There was actually a book titled "Delicious Food" on the stove. He Yuzhu opened it curiously and found that the book introduced the recipes of famous dishes from all over the country.
