Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

Chapter 173 Braised Pork, He Yuzhu's Performance
He Yuzhu was delighted, because this was a recommendation banquet arranged for him by Lao Li and Director Wang!
The meaning is very clear. Whether Yang Weimin can be remembered clearly depends on his performance!

He also understood why Director Wang asked him to pretend not to know them. These people are cunning!
Lao Li doesn't want to owe Lao Yang a favor, but he also wants to recommend him. This is the best of both worlds!
The real purpose of this meal was to give He Yuzhu a chance to perform and let Lao Yang discover this "talent" himself, while he himself stayed out of it!
They are all old foxes. They try to kill three birds with one stone with such a simple thing and come up with new tricks!

Old Yang looked at He Yuzhu with admiration. Youth represents potential, and having no parents means being helpless. Very good!

"Young Master, I don't mean anything else. I'm just curious to see you. Go and get busy!"

"Okay, let me know if you need me. Bye!"

"goodbye!"

Looking at He Yuzhu's back, Lao Li smiled slightly and said, "It's done!"

He knew the character of this fellow villager and comrade-in-arms clearly. Apart from the fact that his food was delicious, he was still straightforward!

Except for being extremely respectful to the old leader, everyone else acts according to principles and is inflexible!
At this point, he definitely has a love for talent, and I guess he needs to do some more investigation!
These people are very cautious and will not recruit just anyone they like. Who knows whether it is "Chiang" or "Wang", so they naturally have to investigate!
night
He Yuzhu went back to the compound to get the ingredients. He had to carry out what he said last night, so he called Xu Damao and three others to help in advance!
"Zhu Zi, this is more than ten pounds of pork belly. If you want more, there will be nothing left. Sorry to bother you!"

Yi Li gave He Yuzhu a reproachful look. It was all this kid's fault!

Of course she knew the reason, and she also knew that this was He Yuzhu's revenge!
But she couldn't say anything, because it was Yi Zhonghai who had to provoke others!

She just felt sorry for the money. After all, she had a share of it!
As for Yi Zhonghai’s mumbling last night, it didn’t touch her heart at all!

Ever since she found out that Yi Zhonghai had concealed the truth, her heart had died. If she had been young, she could have divorced, but now she was old. How could she find a family that would provide her with enough food and clothing?
Even if you can find one, it is impossible to find someone like Yi Zhonghai, because it is impossible for him to not be able to marry a wife under such conditions!

In order to make a living, she could only endure it. Although she had some small calculations, whether it succeeded or not, she would get half of Yi Zhonghai's money!

"Okay, auntie, just wait for the braised pork!
However, this is a little bit of meat, I think we need some potatoes, what do you think?"

"My house is at the very back of the cellar, take as much as you want!"

Looking at the smiling He Yuzhu, Yi Li rolled her eyes. She guessed that the potatoes she wanted were not too few!
"Got it!"

He Yuzhu was preparing to make braised pork with potatoes and cabbage, but there was not enough meat, so he could only add more other dishes!

Although it’s a bit weird, it’s enough for everyone to eat!

After almost two hours, it was finally done. Xu Damao curled his lips. There wasn't much braised pork!
When He Yuzhu added potatoes, they became dissatisfied. Where was the promised meat?

It was almost ready, but then I added so much cabbage, so it’s still a mess!
The only consolation is that a lot of lard was added, so it should taste good, otherwise, the three young people would be furious!

"Neighbors, I apologize to everyone here!"

"Zhu Zi, let's eat quickly. I can't help it. What kind of apology are you giving?"

He Yuzhu gave Yi Zhonghai a meaningful look, which made Old Silver Coin tremble with fear. This kid is going to cause trouble!
"Well, I came back early from work, intending to show off my best work to everyone!

As a result, things did not go as planned, and even a good cook cannot cook without rice! "

"Zhu Zi, didn't Lao Yi prepare any meat?"

Liu Haizhong was delighted, as Yi Zhonghai had always been his target of defense, because he posed the greatest threat!
If there is really no meat prepared, then he will have room to perform and make Yi Zhonghai embarrassed, Old Liu fantasized in his heart!

"That's not right. Lao Yi bought the meat. I saw it with my own eyes. How could it be fake?"

Yan Bugui took up the conversation. He saw that the meat in the bag was barely visible. How could there be no meat?

"Ahem, it's not that there's no meat!"

"Stop panting and speak quickly!"

"Okay, I'll be honest, the amount of meat Uncle Yi bought was really small, only about ten pounds!
There wasn't much for each person, so I added some more potatoes and cabbage!

I was very idle last night. I originally thought that what Uncle Yi said was true, so I announced Uncle Yi's words verbatim in my joy, hoping to make everyone happy!
But what happened is that, even though I said I would have enough, there was only some meat!
I apologize to everyone for making everyone happy for nothing!"

Looking at He Yuzhu bowing and looking guilty!
Yi Zhonghai felt a hot current that had reached his throat and was about to burst out if he didn't suppress it!
What kind of family is this? You call the pork belly on a mahjong block meat star?

That's not an apology, that's clearly a criticism. You wish your neighbor would tear him to pieces!
The statement about enough meat was not made by him in the first place. He was put in a position of restraint and had no way to refute it!

Even if he refutes it, everyone will think that he has gone back on his word. The neighbors don't care whether what He Yuzhu said is true or false. What they really care about is that they can't eat the meat!

He was well aware of this, so refutation was useless, and might even make matters worse!

I bought the meat despite the pain, thinking that my neighbor would be grateful! But in the end, He Yuzhu's fierce operation made the meat unrecognizable!
Look at the way others look at him. Is that an expression of gratitude? It's clearly contempt, as if to say, you can't do it, why are you pretending to be so high and mighty!
He felt wronged, so wronged. The oil was gone and the lamp didn't light, and he was still being blamed. What the hell was this!

"Ahem, let's eat!"

He Yuzhu waved his hand as if disappointed, and stopped cooking. He asked Sanxiao to serve the food. He sat on the doorstep of his house and didn't say a word!

Yi Zhonghai took several deep breaths and finally suppressed the surging in his throat!

The more He Yuzhu acted like this, the more dissatisfied everyone became with him. He regretted agreeing to provide dinner!
If this happened a year ago, it would be fine to refute him, and his neighbors would believe him. But now it is not necessarily the case, because he knows his situation!
"Everyone line up, it's time to get your meal!"

Yan Jiecheng received a look from his father and shouted!
Old Yan happily stood in front of Yan Jiecheng and handed over the extra-large bowl!

When others saw this, they also realized that no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, so they should eat it first!

"Snapped"

He Yuzhu walked over and hit Yan Jiecheng on the neck, causing his head to turn black!
He Yuzhu glared at Yan Jiecheng, the brat was "harming the public interest for his own benefit"!
"You little bastard, get out of the way and stand aside. If you dare to move, be careful that Master Zhu will beat you up!

Uncle, do you think this is appropriate?"

“This…this…”

It turns out that Yan Jiecheng beat up Yan Bugui in public. Is this possible? Will the people behind him still have meat to eat?
If that happens, everyone will hate him too, it would be totally not worth it!
The original character's behavior in the play was the most hateful. In an era of food and clothing shortages, how could you not be hated if you shook the spoon?

The purpose of the drama is to highlight the profession of chef and the protagonist. There is no bad consequence of shaking the spoon. It's a TV drama!

In this real age, He Yuzhu believes that people can be put in a sack and beaten to death for doing something like Shazhu's!
They already don't have enough to eat or warm clothes to wear, and after a day's work, you still cheat and deduct other people's food rations. You're lucky if you're not beaten to death!
Yan Bugui was in trouble, but he didn't expect that the lost He Yuzhu would suddenly transform into a "wrathful King Kong"!
It would be fine if it was someone else's meat, he could still get away with it, but it was his son!
"Bring it here!"

He Yuzhu didn't care about Yan Laoxi's embarrassment. He snatched the bowl away, and under Yan Bugui's painful look, poured it all into the pot and stirred it!
"Liu Guangqi, Xu Damao, you two share the steamed bread, and no one is allowed to touch the vegetables!"

"Okay, Brother Zhuzhu!"

He Yuzhu prepared the dishes for the four of them first, and then began to distribute them. Everyone did the same, just use one spoon to take as much as they could!

In any case, the spoon is steady and the bowl is full. As for how much meat there is, it depends on luck!
The man who had served the dish took a bite, his eyes lit up, he put the steamed bread in his pocket and started to eat the food, not even bothering to chat with the people next to him!
When the others saw this, they put the cabbage into their mouths in confusion and immediately did the same as the previous person!
Although there is a little less meat, there is enough lard and the cabbage is plump, which is quite satisfying!

He Yuzhu’s unwritten rule is that after eating, you can go to the end of the line and continue playing, of course, if there is any left!
Yi Zhonghai took a bite of the dish and looked at He Yuzhu in confusion. How much lard did this guy put in?
You know what, it’s quite delicious. No matter how angry you are, you still need to fill your stomach!
These are all provided by him. Wouldn’t it be a big loss if I don’t eat them?

People who can’t eat because they are too full of anger have definitely never been hungry!
If He Yuzhu had said this in his previous life, I would have been furious!
That's because they have never been hungry. When they were young, they had never heard of being too angry to eat. They wanted to eat but there was nothing to eat!
Yan Bugui was very angry. He was not angry that He Yuzhu did not give him face, but he was angry that so much meat was in the bowl, but it was put back into the pot!
He had a more profound understanding of the saying "the cooked duck flew away"!

This is not a lie, it really can fly!

Others were quite satisfied with He Yuzhu. Although he couldn't be absolutely fair, it was no problem for them to have full bowls!

"Zhu Zi cooks really good food. I really hope this toilet will never be finished!"

Zhou Ji from the Zhou family put down his bowl contentedly, took out a cigarette and took a deep puff, with a look of satisfaction on his face!

He spoke unintentionally, but listened intentionally, and the people next to him exchanged glances!
"Yes, I wouldn't trade this day for anything, I'm really looking forward to dinner tomorrow night!"

Zhang Chao and Zhou Ji are the most familiar with each other. They are neighbors and have a good relationship!
"You'll know if you just ask, haha!"

Zhou Ji curled his lips, meaning that he should let Zhang Chao ask quickly. He and He Yuzhu were not very familiar with each other and had only spoken a few times. But Zhang Chao was different!
"Zhu Zi, what's for dinner tomorrow night?"

"Brother Chao, let me ask Uncle Yi and see what dishes he prepares!"

Yi Zhonghai was sitting on the doorstep of his house to eat, with only Jia Dongxu beside him!

He Yuzhu ran to Yi Zhonghai and squatted down. Everyone's eyes were focused on He Yuzhu!

Yi Zhonghai felt something was not good. Damn, it wouldn’t be like last night…

Before he could open his mouth, He Yuzhu nodded and stood up. Yi Zhonghai's heart trembled!
Jia Dongxu looked at He Yuzhu in surprise. How could he do this? Was it the same last night?
"Uncle Yi said that we'll have a whole set of pork offal and five pounds of pork belly tomorrow night!

He wants to eat braised pork and wants to see my cooking skills, so stay tuned!
Thank you, Uncle Yi. I will definitely use my cooking skills to the fullest and make a stew for everyone to see!"
