Siheyuan: Cooking journey

"Did Deputy Factory Director Li really send it?"

Qin Huairu was still confused and couldn't help but ask again.

"Yes, yes, Deputy Director Li ordered me to do that." Liu Haizhong bent over and put the chicken and flour on the table.

"That's it. Leave the things here. I'll leave first so as not to disturb you while you eat."

"Uncle, have a drink of water before you go."

When Granny Zhang saw the chicken and noodles, she was so enthusiastic.

"No, no, no need to send it, really no need..."

Liu Haizhong is very humble and polite.

Qin Huairu looked at this look from left to right and just couldn't understand it. The second uncle, who usually liked to show off his power and prestige in the yard, seemed a little, a little, indescribably strange today.

"This Deputy Factory Director Li is such a good man. He sent us chickens and noodles. I think he also helped me solve the problem at work. He is such a good man, a kind-hearted man."

Granny Zhang looked at the chicken, then at the noodles, clapped her hands with joy, and thought:

"It's hot, and things are going to spoil easily. I'll marinate the chicken with salt and save it for tomorrow night. I'll try the stew made by Sha Zhu tonight.

"Banggeng, Xiaodang, what are you still standing there for? Go to Shazhu and bring the chicken over."

Banggeng nodded and ran out with his sister.

Qin Huairu lowered her head in thought and didn't pay attention to these.

She wondered why Deputy Director Li sent noodles and chicken.

Don't you still want to give up?

Or maybe they knew that what happened at the gate had a bad influence, so they sent things over specially to show the workers in the factory.

But no matter what, no matter what tricks the other party used, since they were using the factory's name, she decided to accept the things but ignore them.

If you ignore him, maybe he will continue to deliver.

What a great guy.

Qin Huairu couldn't help feeling sarcastic.

......

house.

Although He Yushui was very unhappy that her brother left without saying a word, she didn't want to leave the stewed chicken for him and wanted to enjoy it alone.

But she didn't do it after all.

Thinking that my brother didn't eat much for dinner,

She only ate some potatoes, picked up some boney chicken and nibbled on it to taste it, and kept the good meat.

Humph, your own sister is better to you.

He Yushui was secretly happy in her heart, thinking happily about waiting for her brother to come back so that she could please him.

Just at this time,

The door was pushed open and Banggeng came in with Xiaodang.

Seeing the two children, He Yushui smiled.

"What are you two doing here? Are you attracted by the aroma?"

She really likes Qin Huairu's three children and thinks they are cute no matter how she looks at them.

Even though her brother said that the family was ungrateful and that Banggeng often came to steal things, she didn't think it was a big deal.

Children are all naughty. If you educate them well, they will understand the truth when they grow up.

She also thought that what Qin Huairu said was not a big deal, and there was actually no problem. Since it was not a big deal, just give it to the children. Why bother about it.

"Would you like some chicken?"

He Yushui looked into the casserole. These chicken pieces were originally reserved for his brother. After hesitating for a moment, he picked up a piece that was not too big, picked it up with chopsticks, and looked at the two children with a smile.

"Come quickly, Auntie picked out a good piece of meat for you."

Seeing that it was He Yushui, not Shazhu,

There was a hint of hesitation on Bang Geng's face, but after looking at the casserole and smelling the delicious chicken, he still moved over.

He Yushui thought he was here to eat chicken, so she smiled happily and was waiting with the meat between her legs.

As a result, Banggeng picked up the casserole and ran away.

When Xiaodang saw his brother running away, he immediately burst into tears.

"Xiaodang is so hungry, Xiaodang is so hungry, Xiaodang wants to eat chicken..."

He Yushui's hand holding the chicken froze.

The whole person was stunned.

In the past, when she saw Xiaodang crying, she would feel heartbroken, very heartbroken.

But at this moment, she had never been so annoyed.

How could this happen, why?

He Yushui was confused, but couldn't suppress the anger that was boiling in his heart.

At this moment, she suddenly understood why her brother was so angry before and said that he had raised a family of ungrateful people.

I also truly understood my brother's feelings at that time.

Helping is a favor, not helping is a duty, nothing is taken for granted.

I helped you so much, and this is how I treat you?

How much help is enough?

I just received a few kilograms of flour and I’m really hungry. Is there really a food shortage?

We give you white flour, but we are still eating cornmeal.

Bang Geng took it and ran away without saying a word. When Xiao Dang started crying, he did it so skillfully.

He Yushui felt inexplicably sad, feeling sad for her brother.

It is conceivable that my brother must have encountered many such things.

As for me, I was away studying and I only went home a few times a month. Every time I came back, I only took living expenses and never cared about how my brother was doing...

Such an unqualified sister is so unqualified.

My brother clearly told us not to pay attention to that family.

I speak from the bottom of my heart, brother will not harm you, just listen to me.

I still don’t take it seriously, I still think it’s nothing, I feel sorry for the other person and want to help.

Who are the people who are helping?

If someone treats you well, you should naturally ask for it in return and take it for yourself as it should be!

"Xiaodang is so hungry, Xiaodang is so hungry, Xiaodang wants to eat chicken..."

Xiaodang cried for a while, and when she saw that Aunt Yushui didn't come to comfort her, she glanced at her timidly, turned around and ran away.

"..."

He Yushui had mixed feelings.

Don't advise others to do good if you have never experienced their suffering.

I remembered that when I was having dinner with my brother just now, he told me not to let the children go hungry and that we would help if we could.

Looking back now, it’s ridiculous.

Looking back on the foolish things I did in the past, I felt that my own brother was so heartless. Now it seems so ridiculous.

When I thought about how my brother had done all he could for my own good and had said so much, but I never took it seriously, I felt more and more guilty.

I couldn't bear to eat it, so I specially reserved the chicken for my brother, but it was snatched away by someone else. It was then that I suddenly realized that it was not just a matter of eating one less bite.

Can you take it away with a clear conscience if you don’t eat a bite of it?

If you don’t eat this one bite, can you grab it with peace of mind?

Only after experiencing it myself did I realize belatedly that there are some people who really don't need to be helped.

But I still couldn't help but hold on to a glimmer of hope in my heart.

After all, they are all children, young and ignorant.

In my impression, Sister Qin is a sensible, good mother, and a hardworking and tenacious woman. She has always been a role model in my heart. Her thin shoulders carry the livelihood of the entire family. She is strong and stubborn. No matter how hard or tired she is, she never complains. She swallows all the hard work and bears all the difficulties by herself, and never asks others for help.

Such a person is almost perfect.

Thinking of Qin Huairu's usual kindness,

He Yushui was looking forward to it, hoping that she would take the initiative to return the chicken.

It is understandable that children take things because they are ignorant, but adults cannot be ignorant and pretend to know nothing about it.

But as time passed, nothing changed.

He Yushui couldn't help but laugh at himself. It turned out that he was the stupidest person. He even thought he could get it back.

My brother had said before that Qin Huairu knew what her children had done but never asked, and just kept saying that she didn't need it anyway.

No shortage of this one!

Yes, if you don’t need it, I have to give it to you!
