Siheyuan, Me and the Yu Sisters

Chapter 14 Zhang Renkang Teaches Cooking

Seeing that Xu Damao dared not say a word, Yi Zhonghai breathed a sigh of relief. This Xu Damao was still easy to handle. As long as Xu Damao did not pursue the matter, he would have passed the test of Sha Zhu. The only thing left was how to deal with Zhang Renkang.

Yi Zhonghai glanced at the few people, looked at Xu Damao, whose face was bruised and swollen, and whose eyes were squinting, and said quietly:

"Xu Damao, why can't you control your mouth? You humiliated someone's father, and you deserve to be beaten to death. Why don't you apologize to Zhuzi and let this matter go."

"Zhu Zi, don't bother Xu Damao anymore."

After beating up Xu Damao, Sha Zhu was almost done with his anger. Naturally, he didn't care. He snorted and didn't even look at Xu Damao. Xu Damao knew that he was the one who was mean this time. Why did he mention He Daqing? He Daqing was Sha Zhu's Achilles' heel. He was just feeling uncomfortable. Sha Zhu could tolerate him insulting him, but he mocked his father, so he got beaten for nothing. He said to Sha Zhu reluctantly:

"Silly Zhu, I was careless this time and shouldn't have said that to you. I apologize."

The fool ignored him and left.

Seeing Sha Zhu leaving, Xu Damao breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Sha Zhu would continue to hound him. Sha Zhu was not stupid. He ran into Zhang Renkang's house and was beaten out. It was also true that Xu Damao could not see that an old man could do nothing to Zhang Renkang. Why didn't he take out his anger on Xu Damao and leave quickly to save face? Otherwise, he would be beaten by Zhang Renkang again?

Yi Zhonghai saw Sha Zhu leave, glanced at Zhang Renkang and Qin Huairu, and said nothing. Since Sha Zhu was no longer making trouble, he could also have some peace and quiet. He looked at Lou Xiaoe and said

"You go to the street office to change the glass later. Let the aunt pay for it. This is what the old lady did last night when she got angry with Xu Damao. I'll pay for it."

Then he left.

Seeing everyone leave, Xu Damao became excited and started shouting

"Grandpa will teach this idiot a lesson sooner or later, a stinky toilet cleaner."

Seeing Xu Damao's cowardly look, Lou Xiao'e didn't think highly of him. He was cowardly but also quite good at picking troubles. He didn't have any responsibility as a man. Lou Xiao'e had heard about some of Xu Damao's dirty deeds when he went to the countryside. It was only because of some things in her family that she had to make do with Xu Damao. Just now, in Zhang Renkang's arms, Lou Xiao'e suddenly felt the man's strength and breadth. She felt sad. It would have been great if she could have met him earlier. He would be much better than Xu Damao, this loser.

Zhang Renkang was not interested in seeing Xu Damao jumping up and down here. He glanced at Qin Huairu and went back to the house. Qin Huairu would never leave like this. There were an old man and a child waiting for him at home. This Sha Zhu was really useless. Qin Huairu actually knew that Sha Zhu was following him. He just said it deliberately for Sha Zhu to hear. He thought Sha Zhu could force Zhang Renkang to give him some eggs. But now, Sha Zhu was kicked away.

Qin Huairu came into the room and looked at Zhang Renkang with pitiful eyes. Zhang Renkang ate a bite and said with a mean smile.

"Sister Qin, this trick doesn't work on me. I'm not a fool and I'm not interested in raising a child for someone else."

"If you want to get something from me, you have to give yourself in exchange"

Qin Huairu glared at Zhang Renkang fiercely, hesitated for a while, and said quietly

"Go to work, abandoned warehouse at noon"

Zhang Renkang clapped his hands and said with a smile

"Don't try these little ideas. I'm not stupid. You should know the price of playing tricks on me. After lunch, just wait in the kitchen. Follow me wherever I go."

"Are you catching me cheating? Or are you planning to threaten me?"

"Remember, don't use your little tricks, it's useless. I can do something like letting Banggeng meet Jia Dongxu."

Qin Huairu broke out in a cold sweat when he heard what he said. How did Zhang Renkang know what he was thinking? Qin Huairu originally thought that he could take advantage of Zhang Renkang first, and then he would call a few people to catch him at noon. In the future, he would still have to accept that he was in control.

Seeing that Zhang Renkang was not buying her tricks, Qin Huairu was at a loss. She hesitated whether to make a deal with Zhang Renkang. After thinking for a while, Qin Huairu hardened her heart. Zhang Renkang himself had such a high income. Even if she let him take advantage of her, the food she got from him could supplement her three children. Moreover, Zhang Renkang was already the head of the kitchen team at a young age. In a few years, his income would be even higher. Besides, she would not lose anything. Zhang Renkang, a young man, helped her solve her needs, and she made money.

After thinking through the pros and cons, he glared at Zhang Renkang coldly, took the plate and left. There were at least four of them on this plate, and he could take it back to feed the children.

Zhang Renkang looked at Qin Huairu with deep meaning when he saw her leaving with her big butt twisted. He was not just doing this for Qin Huairu's body, but mainly for his previous life. Otherwise, he always felt that he was not completely suitable for this body.

After work, a canteen kitchen

Zhang Renkang carefully inspected the sanitation work

Staring at the stove and the pier,

"Who cleans the stove and the buttresses?"

Ma Hua and Fatty came up quickly, and Fatty said in a flattering manner

"Team leader, we are the ones who cleaned it. Do you think there is anything wrong?"

Zhang Renkang looked at them and said

"Kitchen hygiene is of utmost importance. Do you two know that diseases come from the mouth?"

"The stovetop should be thoroughly scraped clean of grease with a bamboo brush to avoid the breeding of bacteria and viruses. The cutting board should be thoroughly scraped clean of residue and wiped clean with a special steel wire and rag."

"Look at what you two have done. There's this oil stain and these leftover vegetable shreds. If the workers get poisoned after eating the food made this way, and production is delayed, will you be responsible?"

"You have half an hour to clean this place thoroughly again, and then clean the dining hall thoroughly, or you two will be punished."

Ma Hua said unconvinced

"It was always cleaned like this before, why is it not clean now?"

"You have to assign a few more people to us. Can the two of us handle all this work?"

Zhang Renkang said without a smile

"So the idiot from before went to clean the toilet, and if you two want to go, I don't mind."

"Everyone has something to do, and no one is tired. How come you two are princesses or princes? Can't you do your work?"

The fat man quickly grabbed Ma Hua. This young man could see that Zhang Renkang was just messing with them. After all, they were Sha Zhu's apprentices. If Ma Hua continued to hold on, he might end up helping Sha Zhu.

After Zhang Renkang finished speaking, he ignored the two of them and went to inspect other places with his hands behind his back. After inspecting a circle, Zhang Renkang arranged for Liu Lan to take three female kitchen helpers and apprentices to knead the dough and steam the buns, and then went to the back kitchen warehouse to inspect the materials for today.

In the back kitchen warehouse, Zhang Renkang sighed as he looked at the potatoes and cabbages in the warehouse. Apart from these two, there were radishes, eggplants, cucumbers, green peppers and the like. As for the meat, there was only half a pork loin and some bacon. Otherwise, the canteen here is popular among the workers. Who can eat this kind of food every day without making it spicy?

Zhang Renkang thought about it and decided to use peppers and carrots to make fish-flavored pork shreds and hot and sour potato shreds for lunch. These were both good dishes to go with rice and would also allow the workers to have some meat. He immediately started working and arranged for Lu Yong and Gao Ying to wash the carrots, peppers, and eggplants and teach them how to cut and prepare them. He also arranged for Song Gang and several apprentices to peel the potatoes and prepare the dishes.

Zhang Renkang explained to the three of them how to make spicy shredded pork with fish flavor and pointed out their mistakes. The envious people in the kitchen watched Zhang Renkang teaching Lu Yong, Gao Ying and Song Gang carefully. Didn't you see that Sha Zhu has been with Fatty and Ma Hua for three or four years? He didn't intend to teach them anything, but arranged for them to work every day?

It was rare to find someone as attentive as Zhang Renkang in teaching. After all, the key to training an apprentice was to teach the apprentice too well and starve the master to death. It was very common for many people to remain apprentices after seven or eight years of study with their master.

Ma Hua and Fatty were in a corner, seeing Zhang Renkang teaching them so attentively, and they felt bad. They had been working like slaves for Sha Zhu for four years, and Sha Zhu didn't teach them anything except washing vegetables and cleaning. They didn't even know some vegetable cutting skills. Fatty suddenly had a different idea in his mind. It seemed that Sha Zhu couldn't beat Zhang Renkang, so why did he have to rely on him?
