Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

New Year's Day
The drama of paying New Year's greetings to ancestors continues.

He Yuzhu didn't participate at all. In previous years, he would go to the backyard to say Happy New Year. This year, he didn't even go.

After saying Happy New Year to the neighbors he met in the morning, He Yuzhu took He Yushui to Wu Bangming's house.

It snowed on the 28th day of the lunar year, and there was still a lot of snow on the road that had not melted, so He Yuzhu had to walk with He Yushui.

When there was ice on the road, He Yuzhu asked He Yushui to squat down and held her little hand to slide on the ice.

Many children saw this scene and begged their parents to play with them.

Some people were satisfied, some people got slapped.

The atmosphere of the New Year, mixed with the crying of children, is a different kind of happiness.

When we arrived at Wu Bangming's house, Tang Jianze was already there, busy in the kitchen with his apprentice.

When Wu Baowen saw He Yuzhu coming in, he greeted him warmly and reached out to take He Yuzhu's bag.

He Yuzhu didn't give it to him, but asked him: "Why did I hear that your academic performance this year was not good?"

The excitement on Wu Baowen's face disappeared: "Brother Zhuzi, can you please not mention this."

He Yushui bluntly exposed his scars: "Brother, he didn't do well in the exam this year, and his godmother grabbed his ears and scolded him several times."

Wu Baowen just glared at her, and He Yushui was not afraid either, looking like she was going to complain to her godmother.

He Yuzhu laughed and handed the bag to him: "Hold it carefully."

After entering the house, He Yuzhu took He Yushui to kowtow to Wu Bangming, and then prepared to cook.

Tang Jianze said: "Zhu Zi, you don't have to do it this year. The master said to let Lin Hao and the others do it."

He Yuzhu was naturally happy to hear this: "That's great, Senior Brother, I'll also help you take a look at their craftsmanship to see if you have any hidden tricks."

Tang Jianze pointed at He Yuzhu and smiled: "How are you doing at the steel mill?"

Since He Yuzhu went to the steel mill, he met Tang Jianze less and less frequently. They never talked about these things during the few times they met.

He briefly introduced his situation at the steel rolling mill.

Tang Jianze was a little envious: "From this point of view, your factory is still better. You only make a few dishes a day."

He Yuzhu said: “Brother, you may have to cook less dishes, but it’s not easy.

Just preparing menus for those leaders gives me a headache.

In a restaurant, customers order the food, and we cook whatever they order.

The canteen is prepared by the chef, and the level of the leader must be considered. There is also the leader's preferences, which is not easy at all."

The New Year's celebration was all about chatting, and He Yuzhu did not mention anything unhappy about Siheyuan.

Wu Bangming didn't talk much, but he had been angry since he knew He Daqing was not coming back.

He Yuzhu was still unable to explain himself and he really hoped that He Daqing would not come back.

At lunch, He Yuzhu tasted the food on the table and felt that there was not much improvement.

The simple dishes were all fine, but the cooking time for some of the more advanced and difficult dishes was a little off.

Tang Jianze knew that He Yuzhu could taste it, and explained, "Since the implementation of the ticket system, fewer people have eaten.

The types and channels of goods our restaurant can purchase are also limited.

They didn’t have a chance to do anything.”

He Yuzhu couldn't say anything about these.

Tang Jianze left with He Yuzhu.

After leaving Wu Bangming's home, Tang Jianze took He Yuzhu to a secluded place.

"Zhu Zi, did you get those things from Master's house?"

"Yes."

He Yuzhu did not hide it. These days, everything needs a ticket. If he hadn't helped, Wu Bangming wouldn't have been able to prepare so many dishes.

The Chinese New Year gathering at Wu Bangming's house has been held for several years, and He Yuzhu doesn't want to interrupt it this year due to food issues.

Tang Jianze said: "I won't be polite to you, can you help me get some food?"

"How much do you want?"

"Not too much. There are many elderly people in my family, my parents, my wife's parents, four elderly people, we can't eat cornmeal all day long.

Last month, my dad fell while going out and has been bedridden ever since. "

He Yuzhu didn't know this, so he asked, "Brother, why didn't you tell me earlier?

I should go check it out.”

Tang Jianze said, "No need. I didn't tell the chef. You need a ticket to buy anything now, and I don't want to cause you any trouble. If the chef hadn't said that these were dishes you asked your friends to prepare, I wouldn't have begged you."

He Yuzhu said: "What's the point of asking for something? When I was at Emei Hotel, you took care of me so well and I had no complaints.

What's wrong with me giving you a hand?

Come home with me and wait for me outside. I will secretly get you some rice and millet. "

Tang Jianze didn't act pretentiously: "Zhu Zi, thank you very much."

After returning to the courtyard, He Yuzhu packed three kilograms of rice, two kilograms of millet, and ten kilograms of flour for Tang Jianze.

It’s not that I don’t want to give more, it’s just that I gave too much and can’t explain where it came from.

As soon as I went out with these things, as expected, I met Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu.

The two men had been staring at his house since he came back.

Qin Huairu asked: "Zhu Zi, what did you take?"

He Yuzhu didn't want to answer her, so he took the things and left: "What I took has nothing to do with you."

After being retorted by He Yuzhu, Qin Huairu didn't dare to continue to pester him.

As soon as He Yuzhu came out of the Chuihua Gate, Qin Huairu complained to Yi Zhonghai.

"Uncle, why is Shazhu like this? I talked to him nicely, but he ignored me. How did I offend him?"

Yi Zhonghai didn't answer, and he didn't know how to answer.

He racked his brains but couldn't figure out why He Yuzhu had such a strong grudge against Qin Huairu.

It is said that Qin Huairu had never had any conflicts with He Yuzhu since she first got married.

He Yuzhu shouldn't resent Qin Huairu at all.

But things are just so weird.

On the first day Qin Huairu got married, He Yuzhu started to get along with her.

To be precise, she was already at odds with Qin Huairu before she even got married.

He did not forget that He Yuzhu was unwilling to donate money to Qin Huairu to buy a sewing machine, and even encouraged Jia Dongxu to postpone the wedding date.

"Huai Ru, he is a petty person.

As an elder, it's okay for your mother-in-law to scold him a few times. He has been holding a grudge for four or five years.

I want to see if he can hold a grudge for the rest of his life because of that little thing."

At the front yard gate, He Yuzhu was also stopped.

Yan Bugui is more capable than Qin Huairu.

What he asked was: "What are you going to do with 15 kilograms of food on your back?"

You can tell the weight of the grain at a glance, the level is quite impressive.

This is also Yan Bugui's secret weapon for taking advantage.

"Uncle, can I send someone off?"

Seeing that He Yuzhu was about to get angry, Yan Bugui did not dare to argue and said, "Okay. I'm just asking because I'm afraid you've been cheated."

When they arrived at where Tang Jianze was, He Yuzhu gave him the food: "That's all we have at home. If it's not enough, I'll find another way."

Tang Jianze patted He Yuzhu's shoulder gratefully: "Zhuzi, thank you very much."

After seeing Tang Jianze off, he turned around and saw Yan Bugui.

"Who is he? You really gave him the food. Don't you want to live?"

He Yuzhu said: "My senior brother's family is having trouble making ends meet, can I just stand by and watch him die?

Is there anything else? If not, I still have to go and wish others a happy new year."

Yan Bugui pulled He Yuzhu and said, "You didn't go to wish the deaf old lady a happy new year this morning, so she and Lao Yi are not happy.

Zhuzi, we are all neighbors, it’s not good to make things too awkward.

Take my advice, bow your head when you should.

Otherwise you will be in trouble."

He Yuzhu was wondering why he said this to him.

No matter why he said this, He Yuzhu would not agree.

Not to mention bowing to Yi Zhonghai, even if Yi Zhonghai bowed to him, he would not agree.

For the sake of your own life, the best way is to stay away from Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu. (End of this chapter)
