Siheyuan, counterattack from the proficiency panel

Chapter 33 He Yuzhu was arrested? Seeking investment and follow-up reading
One is focused on making money, while the other is on guard against it.

The two foxes, one big and one small, began to fight.

"Don't worry, uncle. Just think of this money as a loan from you. I will definitely pay you back when the time comes, along with the ten kilograms of fine grain."

"Zhu Zi, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I don't have any extra food at home."

Yi Zhonghai was determined and refused to lend the money unless he saw any benefits.

He Yuzhu had no choice but to retreat temporarily.

Ginger is always wiser with age. This old guy is very tight-lipped and it is impossible to find a way to break through.

The plan to borrow tuition fees for advantage was over, and He Yuzhu had no choice but to go back.

The next morning, everyone got up early.

Nowadays, there is no habit of sleeping in, as everyone is busy preparing three meals a day.

After He Yuzhu got up, he first got a basin of water for his sister, and then went into the kitchen.

There was not much food left at home, only the ten kilograms of millet that Yi Zhonghai gave him that day.

Even though I ate it yesterday, I won’t get tired of it.

After making a simple breakfast, He Yuzhu felt that his cooking skills had improved a lot.

After breakfast, He Yuzhu asked his sister to stay in the yard and not to run too far.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the outside world was not very peaceful.

People from all walks of life hang out in this city, especially around the time of New Year.

These people are not easy to deal with.

When we walked out the door, everyone was getting ready to go to work.

"Hey, Uncle Liu, good morning!"

"Xiao Jia, go to work."

He Yuzhu greeted everyone he saw warmly.

But some people didn't want to pay much attention to He Yuzhu, as if they were avoiding him.

But this is no wonder. He Yuzhu is alone and has this burden with him. If anyone wants to have a good relationship with him, he would be jumping into a trap.

He Yuzhu was too lazy to say anything more and turned around and walked out.

..............................

About half an hour later, He Yuzhu arrived at his workplace.

Start a busy day.

........................

Time flies. I go back and forth between work and school every day, and before I knew it, it was the end of the year 52, December st.

The custom of celebrating New Year's Eve began decades later. It also existed in the 1950s and 1960s, but it was not as lively. After all, people were poor and the weather was freezing cold.

At most, we will have a good meal and step into 52 years, crossing the 53nd year.

This was also He Yuzhu's last day working at the steel rolling mill.

Continue next year.

As soon as he arrived at the kitchen in the morning, he was called by Lou Bancheng's secretary and taken to the office.

"Boss Lou, you're looking for me?"

Lou Bancheng nodded and said, "Zhu Zi, I want to talk to you about something."

"What's the matter, Mr. Lou?"

"Didn't you come to our house last time to prepare a family dinner? Your cooking skills are very good. My wife and daughter both like your dishes very much. Isn't it New Year's Eve tonight? So I would like to invite you to come to our house again to prepare a New Year's Eve dinner." He Yuzhu nodded and said, "No problem, Mr. Lou, I'll pack up and come over after get off work."

"No, you can just take the bus back with me after get off work this afternoon."

He Yuzhu quickly refused and said, "No, Mr. Lou, my sister is still in the courtyard. If I go to your house to cook, it will probably be very late in the evening. I have to go home first and bring my sister with me."

Hearing this, Lou Bancheng was very unhappy. Why was there so much trouble?

Before liberation, who would dare to talk to him like this?

Whatever he says is what it is, and no one below dares to shirk it.

To put it bluntly, he was the local tyrant of the steel mill at that time and his word was final.

But things are different now. The workers’ status has been improved and they are now the masters of their own affairs…

People like him are being watched all the time, so they have to be careful about what they say and do. So Lou Bancheng thought about it and said, "How about this? I'll ask Secretary Liu to go to the courtyard and pick up your sister. Then you and your sister can go back in my car together."

"Okay, Mr. Lou."

This time, He Yuzhu did not refuse anymore.

At noon, Lou Bancheng asked his secretary to drive to the courtyard to pick up He Yuzhu's sister He Yushui.

Although the secretary didn't know He Yushui, he was a human being and would ask.

Rather, it was because someone drove a fancy little jeep to the He family to pick someone up that caused some shock to the not-so-small courtyard.

Everyone is talking about what happened to Sha Zhu's family?
It's not easy for someone to afford a car. People were speculating and saying all kinds of things.

Some said that Sha Zhu became very successful and moved out of the courtyard house, but this brainless statement was quickly rejected.

Because Sha Zhu’s things haven’t been moved yet.

So another saying came into being: Sha Zhu was put in jail.

The people from the Military Control Commission came to pick up He Yushui to see He Yuzhu for the last time.

Of course, most of them were women who did laundry and cooked and gathered together to gossip. When the workers got off work at noon, they had naturally seen Mr. Lou’s car.

It was confirmed that He Yuzhu was not taken away by the Military Control Commission, but it was Director Lou's car that took He Yushui away.

What is this for?
Thinking about He Yuzhu's identity again, a cook...

Everything becomes clear at a glance.

Mr. Lou will definitely ask He Yuzhu to cook at his home. The workers working in the steel rolling mill know He Yuzhu's cooking skills best and have the most say in it.

Every day at noon, as long as He Yuzhu is in charge of the cooking window, there are always a lot of people coming to get their meals. Even if it is cabbage, they eat it with gusto. As for other windows, even if there is meat, it can't be said that there are few customers, but there are definitely not as many people as the cabbage window.

In this era, and it is winter, the most common dishes are potatoes and cabbage. Most chefs simply stew or steam these two dishes, making the soup watery and tasting almost the same as white flour steamed buns.

I can tolerate eating it occasionally, but if I eat it every day, I will really doubt my life...

But He Yuzhu is different. Even though they are just ordinary cabbage and potatoes, he can make them taste different.

It’s as if the dishes cooked by his hands are more delicious. Of course, all of this is actually a bonus from the proficiency panel and improved cooking skills.

The workers especially love the stir-fried dishes made by He Yuzhu.

I saw He Yuzhu cooking for himself several times.

After the oil is heated, add the ingredients, and the dish slides into the water with a "sizzling" sound. The fragrant smell will make you drool.

Therefore, He Yuzhu is quite popular in the factory.

This is a bit off topic, but it is said that Lou Bancheng asked someone to take in He Yushui, thus relieving He Yuzhu of all worries.

That afternoon after getting off work, the two siblings got into Lou Bancheng's car.

He Yushui, who was making a car for the first time, was full of excitement. He looked around as if he had a motor installed on his body. However, because Lou Bancheng was there, He Yushui was a little shy and could only hold back, not daring to move.
