Siheyuan: I am reborn as a good person He Yuzhu

"Will there be any stock tomorrow?" the customer asked.

Xu Huizhen showed a hint of hesitation, "I'm afraid we have to wait another day. The fresh medicinal wine made tomorrow morning will not be ready."

The man obviously lost his patience: "I don't have that much time to wait!"

Xu Huizhen tried to continue to coordinate and communicate, "I'm really sorry... If you really want it, you can only wait for the fresh goods tomorrow!"

However, faced with the tough attitude, the customer turned away angrily. Xu Huizhen stood there, took a deep breath, and was unable to calm down.

The reaction of today's guests was unusually strong, and they did not seem to be ordinary customers who came to drink. After noticing something was wrong, Xu Huizhen told He Yuzhu about it. After listening to the description, He Yuzhu frowned, realizing that this was not a simple incident, and decided to investigate.

He first went to the warehouse of the tavern to check the inventory of medicinal wine and found that there were only three jars left, which was consistent with what Xu Huizhen said. Then he went to the kitchen and noticed that there were still some medicinal materials stored there. These were all used for brewing medicinal wine, but the quantity was not much. This made He Yuzhu initially guess that the medicinal materials might have been taken away, and even the tavern business might have been targeted. So he decided to find an opportunity to talk to Xu Huizhen in detail to see if anyone was dissatisfied with her.

However, before the conversation, he still wanted to learn more to confirm that his judgment was correct. He Yuzhu returned home and shared his findings with Xu Huizhen, who changed her expression after hearing it. She thought of the previous quarrel with a medicinal material supplier over the formula of the medicinal wine, and couldn't help but suspect that this matter was related to that person.

The next day, Xu Huizhen arrived at the tavern early to wait for the supplier of medicinal materials. Soon, the middle-aged man really showed up. The moment she saw him, Xu Huizhen was nervous but managed to stay calm and walked forward to greet him.

After sitting down, Xu Huizhen asked directly, "Did you send anyone to steal the herbs in our store?" The other party was speechless for a moment and immediately denied it. "Boss Xu, why do you say that? How could I do such a thing?" Looking at his expression, Xu Huizhen felt a little puzzled. "Then did you assign anyone else to come here?" She asked. This time, the other party's face froze and his eyes wandered.

Seeing this, Xu Huizhen had a rough guess in her mind. "If you didn't assign anyone, then someone must have taken a fancy to our medicinal wine formula." After saying this, the other party became alert and silent.

At this moment, He Yuzhu walked in, and the herbal medicine merchant immediately showed a little nervousness. "Boss He, why are you here?" He Yuzhu smiled faintly, "I came to see the situation."

Facing this scene, Xu Huizhen felt warm in her heart. The herbal medicine merchant said with a little embarrassment: "I want to discuss the matter of re-cooperation." He Yuzhu frowned slightly, obviously seeing the clues: "We have to talk to Huizhen about the cooperation. As for the theft of herbal medicine, we will investigate it thoroughly."

This conversation made the situation clearer, and He Yuzhu and Xu Huizhen were ready to join forces to make sure everything was clear.

"If you are really involved, we will definitely not let you go easily." He Yuzhu's voice was firm and cold. The supplier of medicinal materials heard the warning behind these words and was shocked, realizing that he might have really encountered a tough guy this time.

He knew that falling out with He Yuzhu would not only affect his reputation, but also put his business in trouble. In order to find room for maneuver, he quickly explained: "Boss He, I don't know the origins of those people at all."

"We can continue to work together, and I promise that this will never happen again in the future."

He Yuzhu still said nothing, just stared at the other person quietly as always.

At this time Xu Huizhen couldn't help but speak up to mediate.

"Yuzhu, for the sake of our friendship, can we just let it go this time?"

"Business is about connections and making money through harmony. It's not good to have a bad relationship."

After thinking it over again and again, He Yuzhu finally nodded and agreed, "Since you said so, we will let you go for now. But you have to understand that our family's secret recipe is the result of many years of hard work and is not easy to come by."

"If a similar situation happens again next time, we will definitely not show mercy."

The herbal medicine merchant quickly agreed and said gratefully, "I understand. Thank you for your understanding. Don't worry, Boss He."

After the matter was finally settled, Xu Huizhen felt relieved.

She looked at He Yuzhu with respect: "Fortunately you came in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

In response to her thanks, He Yuzhu smiled faintly:

"Didn't I agree to come with you? Why did I let you take the risk alone?"

The two returned to the tavern together. He Yuzhu still had a lot of things to deal with in the factory, so he left first after making sure Xu Huizhen was okay. After she returned safely, Xu Huizhen's nervousness gradually faded. Sitting at the table and recalling this scene, she was quite touched.

...

It was He Yuzhu's crucial appearance that made her feel extremely secure and at ease.

His calmness and competence gave her the strength to rely on in critical moments.

A myriad of thoughts came to my mind at once, and a warm smile appeared on the corner of my mouth.

However, what happened today reminded her that the business world was not as simple as she had thought - a crisis might be lurking not far away; although the current crisis had been resolved, who could be sure that there would not be another one? She had to start thinking deeply about the challenges she might face in the future.

The dim light casts a shadow in the quiet tavern.

...

Just as Xu Huizhen was immersed in deep thought.

At this time, He Yuzhu finished his work and rushed to the pub to find her still sitting at the counter thinking.

"Why are you still thinking about something? Are you worried about the supply of medicinal materials for today?" he asked with concern.

Xu Huizhen raised her head and smiled at the other person: "I was just thinking about something. Actually, I want to discuss an important matter with you."

She solemnly expressed her hope to put her knowledge into practice, "I plan to systematically study pharmaceutical knowledge to enhance my personal abilities."

He seemed a little surprised to hear this suggestion: "Is it because of what happened this morning that you are worried?"

The answer was a positive one.

He Yuzhu was silent for a moment and then said encouragingly, "I support your decision! No matter what kind of help you need, please feel free to tell me and I will do my best to support you."

These heartfelt words made her eyes overflow with sincerity and emotion: "Thanks to you, Yuzhu, thank you so much."

As night fell, the guests left one after another. Finally, after a busy day, the two of them also left this tavern full of stories.

Since Xu Huizhen expressed her desire to learn pharmacology, He Yuzhu bought several books on the subject. "Huizhen, you can read these books when you have time," He Yuzhu said, pointing to the books on the table.

Looking at the pile of books as thick as bricks, Xu Huizhen couldn't help but frown. She knew that He Yuzhu was doing this for her own good, but the boring contents really gave her a headache. "Yuzhu, these books look very profound. I'm worried that I won't be able to understand them." Xu Huizhen said with some worry.

He Yuzhu smiled and patiently comforted her: "Don't worry, I will study with you. We can discuss and study together. As long as you have patience and perseverance, you will definitely master this knowledge." Hearing this, Xu Huizhen felt warm in her heart and realized how serious and responsible He Yuzhu was. Since he was willing to study with her, she should not let him down. So she began to study these books seriously.

Every night, He Yuzhu accompanied Xu Huizhen, and they discussed pharmacology and herbal medicine while studying. Although the whole process was full of hardships, the support from each other made it all fun. After a few months, Xu Huizhen had mastered a considerable amount of pharmacology knowledge through unremitting efforts, and also had a deeper understanding of medicinal wine.

"Yuzhu, I think we can try to brew some wine." Xu Huizhen felt that the theoretical study had come to an end and it was time to put what she had learned into practice. Hearing this, He Yuzhu's face immediately showed surprise: "Really? That's great!"

He knew that Xu Huizhen was born with great potential, and now that she had finally started to enter the practical stage, he was naturally full of expectations. So the two immediately began to prepare the necessary materials. Huizhen carefully selected herbs and grains based on her professional knowledge, used a large jar as a wine storage container, put all the ingredients in it one by one, and strictly followed the steps in the book to brew.

In the following days, they paid close attention to the changes in the wine jars and recorded every detail in detail. Winemaking is like a spiritual practice, which requires great patience and perseverance, and the need to carefully feel the subtle changes. As the days passed, the aroma of the wine became stronger and stronger. When the wine jar was finally opened, the rich aroma of the wine hit their noses, and the mellow and sweet taste after the first taste made them feel surprised and proud.

"Yuzhu, I did it!" Xu Huizhen couldn't hide her excitement, tears welled up in her eyes. He Yuzhu was also deeply moved by this moment. He firmly believed that he had not made a mistake - Xu Huizhen really had extraordinary talent, "Huizhen, you are amazing."

Holding Xu Huizhen's hand tightly, his heart was filled with relief and pride; for the hard journey behind this achievement, the two cherished each other's companionship and support even more. Now, looking at the jar of wine brewed by hand in front of her, Xu Huizhen is grateful. From the initial ignorance to the current self-confidence, every bit of growth and transformation during this period has benefited from He Yuzhu's help and guidance along the way. Xu Huizhen is full of infinite gratitude to him.

She knew very well that if it weren't for He Yuzhu's silent support and encouragement, she might have stopped on the road to pursuing her dream. "Huizhen, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Xu Huizhen lost in thought, He Yuzhu couldn't help asking. "Yuzhu, thank you so much." Xu Huizhen replied with gratitude, "You have sacrificed a lot for me." Hearing this, He Yuzhu smiled, "Silly, we are lifelong partners." He said, "It's natural for me to do these things."
