Siheyuan: Cooking journey

Okay, whatever you say.

He Yuzhu and an old lady took the hard-of-hearing old lady back to the backyard.

An old man who was following him was quite silent. When we returned to the middle courtyard, he asked:

"Zhu Zi, what's going on? Deputy Director Li is not someone who will give in easily. If you are really transferred to the workshop, I will try to get you to work with our fitters."

The deputy factory director holds considerable power.

Deputy Director Li is a stingy person who holds a grudge.

The old man knew everything clearly and thought that He Yuzhu deliberately said that it was okay to reassure the old lady, so he asked this question.

"It's really nothing. Director Yang happened to come over, and the matter was over."

He Yuzhu explained casually.

Although it is difficult for him to evaluate the old man, he does not want to have much dealings with him.

Because he knows in his heart that the old man helps people in exchange for something in return, and in order to find a support for his old age, he can be very kind to others. But if the old man's attitude is wrong and he doesn't get anything in return, he will immediately turn his back on the person.

This courtyard is not named Qin for nothing.

Everyone is selfish and has his or her own little plans in mind.

The old man wants to find someone to take care of him in his old age.

The second uncle wants to be an official and is obsessed with power. He is willing to do anything bad for this.

The third uncle loves money like his life, and he will calculate anything that has to do with money and is profitable.

I am like this, and my children will be the same.

A dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse's son will dig holes. This saying is very appropriate when applied to the second and third uncles.

"That's good. Try not to conflict with him."

The old man warned with concern.

"understood."

He Yuzhu nodded lightly, glanced at He Yushui who was riding his bike more and more skillfully, then turned around and went back to the house.

Looking at his back, the old man sighed in his heart.

He didn't know why, but he could feel that He Yuzhu was deliberately distancing himself from him.

He felt very upset when he suddenly became distant from the child he had watched grow up.

On the other side, Qin Huairu's mood was also ups and downs.

Although I didn't get close, I was able to hear most of the conversation.

She understood that Deputy Director Li was picking on He Yuzhu because of her.

I thought He Yuzhu was transferred to the workshop by Deputy Director Li.

She knew that the old man had always treated He Yuzhu as his own son and would definitely not let him suffer any loss. At least he would try to transfer him to the fitter workshop.

What the old man said just now also confirmed her guess. The two of them were in the same workshop and had plenty of time to spend together. She was looking forward to it.

When she heard He Yuzhu's words, her heart beat faster and she became even more excited.

Director Yang was actually willing to protect He Yuzhu.

This shows that she values ​​him very much and their relationship must be very close.

If I can be with him, there will be no problem in transferring to the cafeteria...

But when she thought of the cushion, Qin Huairu felt even more upset.

……

The third uncle came over, first the deaf old lady, then the uncle, and he couldn't get a word in.

Seeing He Yuzhu returning to the house, he hurriedly followed him.

"Silly Zhu, you know about my boss's problems. I really didn't take the time to introduce you to a girl last time. I'm sorry. Now I have less things to do. Go meet her when you have time."

I really don't know much about your eldest brother's affairs.

He Yuzhu frowned, hesitated for a moment, and said politely: "No need, someone introduced me to someone, and I'm dating someone right now."

"That's it."

The third uncle seemed a little regretful, and pretended not to care and said, "It's okay, you can look around first, and if you don't find it suitable, you can go and find the third uncle again."

"..."

How can you talk like that?

He Yuzhu looked at him dimly.

"Don't get me wrong, that's not what I meant. I meant, well, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first..."

The third uncle realized that he had let the cat out of the bag and wanted to explain, but he found that the more he explained, the worse it got, so he quickly slipped away. If he didn't leave, he was afraid that He Yuzhu would hold him accountable.

Having lived in this courtyard for so many years, he has experienced He Yuzhu's bad temper.

"Ugh……"

He Yuzhu shook his head and closed the door. He didn't take Third Uncle's words to heart.

He was thinking about something else.

When the deaf old lady came, he suddenly realized something he had always overlooked - he could have ignored the Qin family's courtyard.

But what if Ran Qiuye moves in?

Living in the same yard, you can't not talk to each other.

After all, this is not a building. Even if the doors are opposite each other, it is common not to communicate for more than ten years.

In this courtyard, you can see people everywhere, so it is hard not to have any intersections.

Even if she really ignored him, what if she was targeted by people in the yard and felt wronged because of this?

Apart from anything else, there is only one faucet in the yard. What if someone deliberately doesn't allow people to use it?

Is there any sarcasm or ridicule hidden in the words?

What if someone deliberately damages the clothes you are hanging out to dry?

He himself is not worried about these things at all, but if Ran Qiuye is wronged, he will feel distressed and unwilling to see it.

At this moment, he couldn't help but think about two things.

If you live in a courtyard house permanently, you can no longer do what you want and ignore others. You have to change. At least on the surface, you have to get along well with your neighbors. Moreover, you have to have a certain say in this compound, so that people will respect you and protect Ran Qiuye from being wronged.

This is not difficult. There are only a few people who have the final say in this courtyard: the deaf old lady, the uncle, the second uncle, and the third uncle.

The deaf old lady is the "goddess" here, and the old man is also considered the leader here for the time being.

The remaining three uncles are greedy for profit and can be won over; as for the second uncle, he is a brainless and self-righteous idiot, bad from the inside out, so forget about him.

Moreover, there were already irreconcilable conflicts between them before.

Although he thought so, He Yuzhu still felt disgusted with these selfish people and didn't want to pay any attention to them.

He preferred the second idea.

Find another place to live and move out.

Although housing is tight, it is not easy to find a suitable place to live.

But once we find it, these problems will no longer be problems.

That's it.

He Yuzhu had made up his mind and was about to cook when he saw the sheets on the bed that were a little messy and his eyes turned slightly cold.
