Siheyuan: I am stupid, I don't want to be a bootlicker

"No wonder your old man is always complaining about it. This is the first time I've eaten so much since I was a child."

Fang Zisen said with a smile, then looked at He Yuzhu:

"Gangzi told me about your situation. We are brothers, so I won't play tricks on you. Five hundred yuan for a temporary worker in a steel mill, and one thousand for a regular worker.

One or two hundred is boring, I'm too lazy to do it."

He Yuzhu's face twisted, "One or two hundred is boring, are you too lazy to do it?"

Hiss, so sour!

"Okay, I'll get back to the person tonight, and you guys can discuss the specific steps."

Fang Zisen hummed, and seeing Liang Youan and Xu Gang clean up the bottom of the plate, he couldn't help but sigh to He Yuzhu:

"I grew up in the same courtyard with them, and I've never seen them so relaxed."

He Yuzhu ate his food with a smile, thinking that Fang Zisen was just sighing casually.

Fang Zisen's eyes twitched, and he could only say awkwardly: "Of course, I am also very relaxed today."

"puff……"

"Hahaha……"

Xu Gang and Liang Youan, who had just put down their chopsticks, couldn't help but burst into laughter:

"Zhuzi, Zhuzi, you are this, from now on don't call me Brother Gang, I will call you Brother Zhu!"

Xu Gang said this with a smile and gave He Yuzhu a thumbs up.

He Yuzhu was a little confused and didn't understand what these three were talking about.

Liang Youan came to his rescue: "Zhu Zi, don't blame Zisen, he is like this, he always beats around the bush when saying a word.

You know, although the kids like us who grew up in the compound look glamorous on the outside, we actually live a somewhat...depressed life.

There are few times like now when one can relax without any guard, eat meat and drink wine with hearty gulps.

After our meal today, we must bring some midnight snacks for the old man when we go back home tonight. He also wants to bring some for his old man, but he is too embarrassed to ask directly..."

He Yuzhu listened to Liang Youan's explanation and nodded immediately:

"I understand what you mean. It's called wearing the crown, you must bear its weight. As for the midnight snack, I will prepare it when you leave."

"Haha, I told you that you are a wise man pretending to be stupid, but those bastards didn't believe it."

Xu Gang patted He Yuzhu on the shoulder, then looked at Fang Zisen and said, "You, now that you are here, relax a little."

Fang Zisen smiled when he heard this:

"Then I won't be polite. Zhuzi, do you have any wine?"

"Hahahaha, that's right, just relax now that you're here."

Liang Youan also started laughing.

He Yuzhu nodded: "I do have some wine at home, but can you drink it now?"

It's not that He Yuzhu was reluctant to give up the wine, it's mainly because there are four of them and eight dishes, and they are all on large plates, full of food.

The plates are almost empty now. I guess these three are so full that their throats are almost full. How can they still drink?

The three of them looked at each other and burst into laughter again.

The meal lasted two hours before it ended. When the three of them left, they were holding two large food boxes in their hands, which were obviously midnight snacks for the old man at home.

After leaving the yard, a small car was parked not far away waiting. The three got in the car. Fang Zisen couldn't help but look in the direction of the courtyard.

"Zi Sen, you have the sharpest eyes. What do you think of this brother we are friends with?"

Liang Youan narrowed his eyes and asked.

“This He Yuzhu seems to exude a unique…charm that can calm everyone around him.

He seems to have a particularly strong affinity and tolerance. "

Fang Zisen retracted his gaze and said very carefully:

"He is a pure person, without so many messy thoughts."

Finally, he added this sentence.

He Yuzhu naturally didn't know what Fang Zisen thought of him. After the three men left, Yu Shui also came back from the backyard, still thinking about cleaning up a lot of mess.

As a result, the room had already been cleaned up, and the stove was so shiny black that it could reflect her face.

At night, He Yuzhu saw that everyone in the yard was asleep, so he left the house and went to the third uncle's house.

The third uncle and aunt had been sitting on the kang waiting since mid-afternoon. After seeing the three men leave, they couldn't wait to come to the central courtyard.

In the end, the third uncle held down the third aunt and whispered:

"We should wait for Zhuzi to come to us about this matter. If the solution is really solved, and everyone in the courtyard knows about it, and they all come to Zhuzi, wouldn't that be embarrassing for him?"

It must be said that the third uncle is worthy of being a people's teacher for many years, and he is able to keep his composure.

Seeing that He Yuzhu came after everyone had fallen asleep, the third aunt admired her husband even more.

"Zhu Zi is here, hurry up and get on the kang."

The third uncle was calling out to them, and the third aunt had already happily gone to pour water.

He Yuzhu didn't keep the secret, he took the enamel pot from the third aunt, took a sip and said:

"Uncle, do you still remember the young man with glasses who came with me today?"

"Yeah, I have an impression. I have an impression. He looks different from people like me who come from a poor background."

The third uncle nodded immediately. After all, he was watching behind the glass window when the three people entered the yard.

"People say that temporary workers in a steel mill make 500 yuan, while regular workers make 1,000 yuan. People don't look down on those who make 300 or 200 yuan. That's all I have."

He Yuzhu put down the enamel pot and saw a complicated look on the Third Master's face. He immediately stood up and said:

"Uncle, if you think it's suitable, go to the street office and find a human resources official. If you think it's not suitable, let's wait a little longer."

"Hey, thank you for your help today, Uncle. Come over for dinner when you're free."

When the third uncle saw that He Yuzhu was about to leave, he didn't try to keep him, but stood up and walked him out the door.

The next day, He Yuzhu got up early, first sent his sister Yu Shui to the bus to school, and then strolled to the steel rolling mill.

I happened to meet Chief Pang of the Security Department at the door, and immediately greeted him with a smile:

"Morning, Chief Pang."

When Chief Pang turned around, he saw He Yuzhu walking in from the door with a smile and handing him a Daqianmen cigarette.

"Wow, our foreman He is so open-minded. This move is a big win."

Section Chief Pang took the cigarette with a smile, took out a match from his pocket, lit it for He Yuzhu first, and then for himself.

"Hey, hey, aren't I afraid that Chief Pang will dislike my cigarettes, so I bought a pack of Daqianmen?"

He Yuzhu laughed and the two chatted for a while. He Yuzhu was about to go in when he heard Chief Pang call him again and whispered:

"Master He, we are not outsiders, we have..."

"Hey, Brother Pang, if we're not strangers, why do you call me Master He?"

He Yuzhu asked back with a smile, and Chief Pang couldn't help but smile, then asked seriously:

"Cheng, Zhuzi, there is a Li Shengli and a Li Heping. I remember they live in your courtyard, right?"

"Well, what happened to the two sons of the old Li family in our front yard?"

He Yuzhu also restrained the smile on his face. He knew that Chief Pang would not tell him this for no reason.

"He's not a good person. We live in the same courtyard and there's often no one at home. Be careful."

"Okay, thank you, Brother Pang. I'll treat you to a drink some other day!"

He Yuzhu nodded, understood what was going on, and said thank you with a smile.

"Hey, you don't need to drink, just get something to eat!"

Ever since they tasted He Yuzhu's cooking in the small canteen, all the leaders of the steel rolling mill have never forgotten it.

He Yuzhu went to the cafeteria, chatted with the kitchen workers, arranged their work, and was just about to go in to read a book.

"master."

Ma Hua smiled and quickly took two steps to catch up with him, and handed an object wrapped in brown paper to He Yuzhu:

"Master, this is a cookbook that my uncle bought from a used book market. I don't need it here, so you can take a look at it."

He Yuzhu took the cookbook, unwrapped the brown paper and saw a yellowed ancient book with four ancient characters "Shaowei Food List" written on the cover.

He Yuzhu's heart skipped a beat. If it were his original self, he probably wouldn't have known about this book.

However, He Yuzhu was also a star chef before he traveled through time, so he naturally knew this masterpiece by Wei Juyuan from the Tang Dynasty.

The Wei family was originally a prominent family in Jingzhao Yun. Although Wei Juyuan became an official by relying on his family background, he was actually a man of real ability. He had been appointed prime minister four times and even hosted a banquet for Emperor Zhongzong of Tang at his home.

"Shaowei Food List" is the only relatively complete food list for court and government banquets during the Sui and Tang dynasties that we can see today.

"Okay, Master, I'll take it. Please thank your uncle for me and treat him to a drink tomorrow when you're free."

Although He Yuzhu was ecstatic in his heart, his face was calm. He put away the book and walked into the kitchen.

There is a storage room at the innermost part of the kitchen. When Master Huang was there, half of it was used for storage and the other half was separated to hold a single bed.

He Yuzhu entered the storage room, opened the "Shaowei Food List", and was immediately fascinated by it.

After lunch, apprentice Ma Hua helped He Yuzhu wash the lunch box. He was about to go into the storage room to rest for a while, but was stopped by Secretary Zhou from the office.

"Hey, Brother Zhou, what's up?"

He Yuzhu asked with a smile, took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Tianhai, but he was a little confused in his heart, wondering what this person wanted to do.

"Just now when we were having dinner, Deputy Director Li specifically asked you to go to his office after dinner."

Zhou Tianhai also took the cigarette with a smile on his face, but he was even more confused than He Yuzhu:

It must not be official business that Deputy Director Li is looking for He Yuzhu at this time. Could it be that this person has a personal relationship with Deputy Director Li?

If it were any other leader, they might ask He Yuzhu to come over to cook for them, but Deputy Director Li usually entertained guests in the small canteen and would never let anyone come over to his house casually.

"Okay, thanks Brother Zhou for making this special trip. I'll go right away."

When He Yushui arrived at Deputy Director Li's office, Deputy Director Li was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper.

"Zhu Zi is here? Sit down and talk."

Deputy Director Li waved to He Yuzhu. Ever since he went to Deputy Director Li's home to check the couple's pulse last time, the two have been in a "honeymoon" period.

Seeing this, He Yuzhu knew that it was not a bad thing, and immediately sat down on the sofa with a smile.

Deputy Director Li asked a few questions about work in a nonchalant manner, and then got to the point:

"Zhu Zi, this is the thing..."

After Deputy Director Li finished speaking, He Yuzhu finally understood why Deputy Director Li called him:

It turned out that the trouble was caused by the two prescriptions I wrote for Deputy Director Li and his wife when I went to his home last week.

When Deputy Director Li went to Tong Ren Tang to get medicine, he happened to be seen by Tong Ren Tang's shopkeeper Zu Wenhua, who immediately asked him about the origins of the two prescriptions.

At first, Deputy Director Li thought there was something wrong with the recipe and quickly asked what was going on.

Zu Wenhua said that the doctor who prescribed this prescription was much better than the old doctor at Tongrentang, and he wanted to visit him for exchange.

Deputy Director Li's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly felt that someone was trying to poach his steel rolling mill. Oh no, someone was trying to poach his, Li Xingguo's, talent.

Last time, Lou Jingzhai made a scene and invited He Yuzhu to his home to cook. Fortunately, he had taken precautions in advance, otherwise He Yuzhu might not be at the steel mill now.

After all, Deputy Director Li knew a thing or two about Lou Jingzhai's ability to make money.

At the moment, it is obvious that the old fellow Zu Wenhua is also going to follow suit.

All the exchanges and visits were fake, they were just to test the waters. If He Yuzhu was really capable, he would bring him to Tongrentang for consultation.

Although Tongrentang's "money power" may not be as good as Lou Jingzhai's, they have a lot of money. If they offer something that He Yuzhu can't refuse...
