Siheyuan: I am reborn as a good person He Yuzhu

Chapter 157 Everything has cause and effect

The old man handed the tools to He Yuzhu and waited for his answer.

"Master, this should be a brewing tool."

He Yuzhu did not hide the fact that his knowledge was indeed extensive.

The old man was slightly surprised because not many people could answer correctly quickly.

But he immediately thought that since He Yuzhu's family ran a pub, this was not surprising.

"It is a winemaking vessel, used to store various high-proof liquors."

"My set is pretty good. There are six of them in total. They can hold six kilograms of wine at a time. It's just the right amount."

“Come and see if you can fill it up!”

He Yuzhu opened the tools as instructed and poured water into them.

This tool is heavy and can hold six kilograms of water without any problem.

After he poured in all six pounds of water, the inside of the tool instantly turned deep red.

"How's that? Is it okay?"

the old man asked.

The old man looked at He Yuzhu expectantly.

"Row!"

"awesome!"

The old man was extremely excited that the set of tools that had been stored under the bed for more than ten years was intact.

"Master, there are a few things in the ancient book I read yesterday that I don't quite understand."

The text in (Zhao Hao's) book was printed vertically, which made it difficult for He Yuzhu to read.

He hoped that the old man could explain it in detail, as it would be a waste of time to study on his own.

He Yuzhu was eager to learn the skills and key points so that the tavern could have a whole new appeal.

The old man nodded in approval, took out the ancient book and explained it in detail.

This explanation took a whole day.

The old man's explanation was extremely detailed, from techniques to things that need attention and taboos between certain materials.

These are all required learning contents for winemakers. He Yuzhu was fully focused and did not miss a single word.

"Master, thank you for your careful teachings!"

Under the old man's guidance, He Yuzhu suddenly realized that he would be able to make the best wine if he got the raw materials tomorrow.

When he looked up, a few gold coins happened to fall from the sky.

"Yuzhu, go buy some materials tomorrow according to the method I told you, and I will teach you personally."

A smile appeared on the old man's face, as if he was giving He Yuzhu some hint.

"Okay! Master, I'll go right away!"

He Yuzhu didn't think too much and rushed out of the room quickly, "This kid is really a bit of a fool."

The old man whispered to himself and put the set of tools away carefully.

And at this moment,

He Yuzhu had already bought all the ingredients according to the proportions, and also purchased an extra two pounds of pork, and returned to his master's home.

The two discussed and decided to start practical teaching early the next morning.

Afterwards, He Yuzhu returned to his own courtyard.

His wife Xu Huizhen had not returned home yet, so he quickly started preparing dinner.

Just at this moment, Yi Zhonghai walked in.

"Brother Yuzhu, what delicious dish are you planning to cook today?"

Yi Zhonghai caught a glimpse of half a chicken soaking in the big pot at the door of the He family.

"Are you just staring at our cook? Whatever is cooked is none of your business."

He Yuzhu was concentrating on cooking the fish and didn't bother to pay attention to Yi Zhonghai.

He understood that Yi Zhonghai showed up at this time, definitely for the chicken again.

"Haha, cooking, very good, very good..."

Yi Zhonghai smiled awkwardly. He didn't think he was a petty-minded person, but why did he always feel like he was being taken advantage of by half a chicken?

Watching He Yuzhu busy stewing the fish, Yi Zhonghai's attention was attracted by the chicken again.

It’s normal to think about it, as it’s rare for families to enjoy chicken and fish at the same time outside of festivals.

"Yuzhu, this amount of food may be a bit too much for the two of you, how about sharing some with me?"

Yi Zhonghai did not give up. In the past, He Yuzhu would not only give him half a chicken, but also generously give him these fish.

He believed that even though he had changed a little now, he would not completely ignore personal relationships. At least he was still highly respected in the courtyard.

"Tell me, do you deserve a beating for always paying attention to my food?"

He Yuzhu snorted coldly: "I'm telling you, Yi Zhonghai, don't even think about taking anything from my house away from here."

Yi Zhonghai was speechless for a moment.

He Yuzhu was not such a cold person before.

"you……"

Yi Zhonghai was about to give a few words of instruction, but was interrupted by He Yuzhu:

"I have tolerated you for a long time. From now on, I don't want to talk to you about these nonsense anymore.

Yi Zhonghai, stop giving me that shit."

"You stinky boy, how dare you do this to me?"

Yi Zhonghai roared angrily.

 182. Fate

In that courtyard, Yi Zhonghai has always been the one who has the final say, but now He Yuzhu dares to challenge his authority.

"Okay, He Yuzhu, do you really not take me seriously?"

Yi Zhonghai felt angry and wanted to overturn the pot on the stove.

However, she didn't expect that before she could raise her hand, He Yuzhu had already grabbed her wrist tightly.

"What do you want to do? Do you still want to take action?"

He Yuzhu asked with his eyes wide open, his tone full of provocation.

"You little bastard, I'm going to touch this pot today and see what you can do to me!"

Yi Zhonghai swung his arms angrily, trying to break free from He Yuzhu's restraints.

But He Yuzhu held it tightly, not giving him any chance to escape.

"Yi Zhonghai, don't force me to use force!"

He Yuzhu's face darkened and he warned with a firm look.

"How dare you! I'm your elder."

Yi Zhonghai’s eyes opened wide, his face full of disbelief.

"Humph, if you didn't mention this, maybe I would really treat you as an elder."

He Yuzhu sneered, "You just like to bully the weak, so what if I punch you?"

He Yuzhu's words were not intimidating at all.

On weekdays, Yi Zhonghai relied on his seniority and age to bully others in the courtyard.

"You...you really dare to hit someone?"

Yi Zhonghai suddenly felt a little afraid.

Even though he was usually rude and unreasonable, he was really afraid of getting beaten.

He Yuzhu pushed hard, and Yi Zhonghai took a few steps back and hit the wall. Spots of light immediately appeared on his forehead.

"Ouch, it hurts!"

Yi Zhonghai pressed his head and found that blood was coming out of his forehead.

"Mr. Yi, I'm warning you. If you dare to come to my house and cause trouble again, don't blame me for being rude!"

He Yuzhu said this and left the kitchen with the basin.

He is no longer a soft persimmon that can be bullied by anyone.

Yi Zhonghai touched his injured forehead and stood there, at a loss as to what to do.

He wanted to curse loudly, but when he saw the big carp in the kitchen, he swallowed his saliva.

After careful consideration, Yi Zhonghai was afraid of being attacked by He Yuzhu again, so he quickly returned to his room.

Not long after, Xu Huizhen came back.

"Yuzhu, why did you cook so many dishes today?"

She put her bag down and smelled the fish on the table.

“This fish is really delicious.”

“This fish is very fresh. It was still alive when I bought it.”

He Yuzhu brought the food over.

"really not bad."

Xu Huizhen sat down, picked up a piece of fish, tasted it, and couldn't help but praise: "Yuzhu, you are really amazing, this fish is much more delicious than the ones outside."

"Well, of course, just look at who made this work."

He Yuzhu said with some pride.

During the meal, He Yuzhu talked about what happened today when he became a disciple.

When he mentioned the set of wine-making tools, Xu Huizhen exclaimed in surprise.

"Is it the wine-red wooden tool set? There are six tools of different sizes."

“Yes, it’s a little faded, but it’s definitely red and the size is exactly six.

How did you know? "

He Yuzhu originally thought that this set of tools was unique, but he didn't expect Xu Huizhen to be able to describe it so accurately.

"This set of tools is specially used by the palace winemaker. My grandfather told me about it when I was a child."

Xu Huizhen looked a little gloomy, and it was obvious that she couldn't forget about it.

He Yuzhu was stunned when he heard this.

It turns out that this set of tools is so precious.

"Huizhen, has your grandfather ever seen this set of tools?"

Xu Huizhen shook her head and said, "This is the biggest regret in my grandfather's life."

 182. Fate

When He Yuzhu heard this, he immediately agreed to take Xu Huizhen to see the old gentleman the next day.

This is a regret of the old gentleman that needs to be made up for by Xu Huizhen's generation.

After hearing this, Xu Huizhen couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Really? Your master wouldn't object, would he?"

He Yuzhu smiled slightly, showing his teeth.

“Don’t worry, my master will definitely be very happy.

He mentioned you this afternoon."

The old man has always been curious about what kind of woman would be worthy of his good apprentice, and it would be even better if she could have a beautiful daughter-in-law.

The next afternoon, Xu Huizhen followed He Yuzhu to the old man's courtyard.

Looking at the scene in front of her, she couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

He Yuzhu comforted him, "It's okay, my master is very kind and will be very happy to see you!"

Xu Huizhen nodded in agreement.

After the two entered the room, He Yuzhu shouted loudly: "Master, guess who is here?"

"Stop keeping me in suspense, little brat!"

The old man got up from the bed and looked at He Yuzhu with a smile.

When he saw Xu Huizhen, he was stunned for a moment.

"Yuzhu, is this girl your wife?"

The old man looked at Xu Huizhen carefully and secretly praised the girl for her beauty.

Xu Huizhen's face turned red.

"Master, please sit down and drink some water. I will introduce you."

He Yuzhu moved a chair over, asked the old man to sit down, and then formally introduced Xu Huizhen to him.

When he heard that Xu Huizhen's grandfather was also a winemaker, a light flashed in the old man's eyes.

"What's your grandfather's name?"

"Xu Wugen."

Xu Hui sincerely thought that this old man was about the same age as her grandfather, and perhaps they were old acquaintances.

As expected, the old man showed a look of reminiscence and exclaimed: "So it was you."

"Do you know my grandfather?"

Xu Huizhen asked doubtfully.

The old man shook his head: "I've only heard of his name, but never met him in person."

"It seems like it was fate that I could accept Yu Zhu as my apprentice."

The old man turned to He Yuzhu and smiled, "Right?"

He Yuzhu nodded in agreement: "Yes, everything has cause and effect."

"Master, I have brought all the materials you requested yesterday. When do we start?"

He Yuzhu remembered what the old man said yesterday and wanted to learn these skills as soon as possible.

"Wait, I'll go get something."

The old man stood up and walked out as he spoke.

He Yuzhu heard him mumbling to himself: "Now there are only a few main ingredients left to find. I should be able to get them all by going to Medicine King Valley again."

He Yuzhu and Xu Hui** glanced at each other and felt that things were not simple.

Soon, the old man came back.

He handed He Yuzhu two prescriptions and said, "These are the herbs you need. Give the other one to Huizhen for safekeeping."
