Siheyuan: Me! He Yuzhu defies fate and changes destiny

He Yuzhu understands that these people's thinking is limited in the current national environment, and they cannot fully understand what he said. But he believes that as time goes by, everyone will understand.

So he said, "Okay, you can just slowly experience these things!"

After hearing this, no one pursued the issue further because no one was very interested in the topic itself. What everyone was most concerned about was the future housing problem.

As for the matter at hand, we just need to follow He Yuzhu's ideas. Hu Shuzhi echoed: "Since Zhuzi said so, we just need to do it!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, and He Daqing continued, "I heard that our factory is going to expand. If anyone has relatives or friends who want to work in the steel rolling mill, they can prepare in advance!"

Everyone shook their heads to show their unwillingness. You know, almost everyone who finds a job here has their own ways. If the people in the courtyard knew about this, they would definitely be envious.

That's right, those who live in the courtyards are trying their best to find a formal job, but these people present are the ones that others avoid. He Yuzhu comforted his father and said, "Dad, you know the situation here. If you can't find a job, I'm here for you!" He Daqing nodded and said, "That's true. I didn't think it through!"

Everyone chatted for a while, the atmosphere became relaxed, and the topic changed... The next day, He Yuzhu went out to cook as usual.

The task he received this time actually came from the Lou family. He Yuzhu was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he would be the one to cook this time. As soon as he entered the door, Lou Qingshan was very enthusiastic towards He Yuzhu: "Mr. He, we are sorry to trouble you again this time!"

He Yuzhu smiled and replied, "No, no, I just came here to ask for a favor. Can I have a look at your collection of books?" Lou Qingshan nodded immediately, "Of course, you can take a look. No problem at all. However, this guest is special, so I..." He Yuzhu smiled and replied, "Mr. Lou, don't worry about that. I am very confident in my cooking skills. Don't worry!"

Hearing this, Lou Qingshan nodded with satisfaction: "Since Mr. He said so, I will not say anything more." Then he led He Yuzhu to the kitchen. After entering the kitchen, He Yuzhu looked at the ingredients in front of him and then asked:

"Mr. Lou, do you want to taste the dishes of the Tan family this time?" Lou Qingshan nodded and replied, "Yes, I heard that your father is proficient in the dishes of the Tan family. I wonder if Mr. He..."

Lou Qingshan knew He Yuzhu's position in society, so he showed him great respect. He Yuzhu said, "Of course there is no problem. No matter what kind of Chinese or foreign cuisine it is, as long as I know it, I am sure I can cook it well. Please rest assured!"

In fact, Lou Qingshan had some concerns and did not particularly want to invite He Yuzhu to be the chef, because he was a businessman after all, and being too high-profile might not be conducive to his own development.

But he decided to do so because of the importance he attached to this reception. Because, as long as this important guest was satisfied with the hospitality, it would be like finding a protective umbrella for his family and ensuring peace at home in the future.

Knowing that he likes food energy, he specially invited He Yuzhu. When he saw He Yuzhu carefully selecting and preparing ingredients, a woman approached.

The woman still had her charm. When she saw He Yuzhu, her eyes showed surprise: "He Yuzhu, is it really you?" Hearing her question, He Yuzhu nodded slightly and replied: "Yes, it is me. You are Xiao'e, right?" After getting a positive answer, Lou Xiao'e smiled and said:

"I didn't expect to meet you here. Time flies. I thought I would never see you again." To this, He Yuzhu also smiled and replied:

"How could that be? We are both in Beijing, so we will always have a chance to meet each other." Without dwelling on this topic any longer, Lou Xiao'e asked:

"By the way, have you ever been back to that courtyard?" He nodded and replied:

"I go back a few times occasionally, but not often." Lou Xiao'e showed concern and then asked about the situation of the courtyard:

"Has Qin Huairu changed recently? I always feel that she wants to get closer to me recently. Although I don't think highly of people from Siheyuan, especially Qin Huairu. But the feeling I get from her recently is a little different."

He Yuzhu was silent for a moment. Unexpectedly, Lou Xiao'e had a similar feeling, so he asked back:

"What's the difference?" After a moment's thought, Lou Xiao'e described:

"I can't tell why it's different. Maybe it's just a feeling. You know, she used to ignore me. After all, you know about her affairs with Xu Damao, which put her in an awkward situation. But recently, she seemed to have forgotten all that and acted very naturally. She even said some vague words to me, claiming that my family would encounter an unpredictable disaster."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu seemed a little surprised, and then comforted him:

"Don't listen to her nonsense. Your family has won national merit plaques. How could you possibly encounter such a misfortune? And as far as I know, you have donated most of your assets." Listening to He Yuzhu's analysis, Lou Xiao'e nodded in agreement:

"You're right. I can even support myself now, and my mother has found a new job. The country's attitude towards our family has obviously improved a lot." Deep down, He Yuzhu agreed with this and lamented all the contributions that Lou's father had made to the country; however, due to the involvement of state secrets, He Yuzhu could not reveal more information to Lou Xiao'e. He just nodded and comforted her:

"Just ignore those nonsense. She even tried to win me over a few days ago. It's ridiculous! Such a woman has no shame!" As soon as these words came out, Lou Xiao'e, who was listening, was shocked:

"What? She actually wants to... be with you!" Before the other party could finish, Lou Xiao'e's mother, Lou Tan, came over and interrupted:

"Xiao'e, girls should pay attention to their image when speaking outside." Lou Xiao'e frowned slightly. Since ending her marriage with Xu Damao, she has become more frank and direct, and she expresses her thoughts directly. The mother, who knows her daughter's personality change, knows that if she could have seen Xu Damao's true face earlier, perhaps her daughter would not have suffered so much harm. At this time, Lou Xiao'e turned to her mother and explained:

"You should still remember Qin Huairu, right? The woman who had a love affair with Xu Damao?" When this name was mentioned, Lou Tan would naturally not forget it. Currently, Xu Damao was still serving his sentence in the northwest, which was a painful past that she did not want to mention.

Although Lou Xiao'e didn't know the situation, Lou Tan nodded and said, "I know. Is there any problem?"
