Siheyuan: Let Yourself Go He Yuzhu

Chapter 111: First meeting Xu Huizhen and encountering Chen Xueru

The owner of these eyes was Xu Damao.

How could Xu Damao not seek revenge after suffering such a great humiliation? Xu Damao had been staring at He Yuzhu!
Xu Damao understood that he could not take revenge inside the courtyard, so he decided to take revenge outside the courtyard.

To this end, Xu Damao prepared two plans. One was to write a letter to accuse He Yuzhu of using his position to steal food from his home; the other was to secretly find some people to ambush He Yuzhu.

Xu Damao knew that He Yuzhu was very powerful now, so he looked for people who could really do the job, a total of nine people.

When Xu Damao saw He Yuzhu go out, he followed him quietly, preparing to notify people and ambush at the entrance of the alley in advance, so as to catch He Yuzhu and give him a good beating. Xu Damao didn't want He Yuzhu's life, he just wanted to beat him up severely and make him lie in bed for two or three months.

"No, we can't ambush at the entrance of the alley. It's too obvious and it will be easy to trace it back to me. We have to be somewhere else. Humph, you thief, I'll see how you die this time." Xu Damao said viciously as he looked at He Yuzhu's back.

He Yuzhu strolled to the foot of Zhengyang Gate, and sure enough, there was a tavern there.

Although it is a year of famine, the business of the tavern is also depressed. After He Yuzhu went in, he found that although the business was depressed, there were still many people.

Most of the people inside are there just to shout and have fun without spending any money. There aren't many people who actually want to drink.

He Yuzhu found a quiet corner and sat down, carefully observing the people here, and discovered that Xu Huizhen was indeed here. At this time, Xu Huizhen had already married Cai Quanwu, who looked very similar to He Daqing, and they had a child.

He Yuzhu also met Pian Ye, Niu Ye and others who looked very similar to Yan Bugui. He Yuzhu suddenly found it very interesting. If he brought Pian Ye to the courtyard, would Yan Jiecheng and other Yan brothers call Pian Ye dad when they saw him?

"Not only does he look exactly like Yan Bugui, but his voice is almost the same. Pian Ye can totally use Yan Bugui's name to go to the school and collect Yan Bugui's salary. I wonder how heartbroken Yan Bugui will be if this is really done." He Yuzhu thought secretly in his heart after hearing Pian Ye's voice.

"Comrade, what would you like to order?" Xu Huizhen came up to He Yuzhu and said with a smile.

"Two taels of Lianhuabai, two taels of Niulanshan, a portion of your tavern's specialty pickles, a portion of vinegar-fried potato shreds, a portion of stir-fried cabbage, and stew my chicken for me, so that you can have four dishes in total." After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he reached under the table and a large rooster that had just died appeared in his hand.

As soon as He Yuzhu finished speaking, the originally lively tavern became quiet, and everyone looked at He Yuzhu. In this famine year, it took a lot of effort to eat four dishes, not to mention that He Yuzhu came with a big rooster.

Not to mention in years of disaster, even in normal times, a big rooster is a rare sight. They have been coming to the tavern for so long, but have never seen such a domineering guy. It was only a long time ago that they had heard of similar people.

Xu Huizhen frowned and looked at He Yuzhu, thinking carefully.

When He Yuzhu walked in, Xu Huizhen deliberately looked at him twice more, because most of the people who came here were regular customers, or regular customers bringing new customers. For a stranger like He Yuzhu who came alone, Xu Huizhen naturally took a few more glances at him.

Xu Huizhen didn't remember that He Yuzhu was carrying a chicken when he came.

"Could it be that I didn't notice it?" Xu Huizhen thought secretly.

Then, Xu Huizhen glanced at He Yuzhu again and saw that He Yuzhu was stuffing a sack of money into his pocket.

"I must have seen it wrong. This man should have come in with his hands behind his back, carrying a sack. I didn't see it clearly." After thinking about it, Xu Huizhen smiled and said to He Yuzhu, "Please wait a moment."

"There are not many people like you who are so enthusiastic in entertaining customers. Other restaurants and hotels have slogans prohibiting beating customers without reason. Why don't you have one here?" He Yuzhu looked around and asked with a smile.

"They are all regular customers and neighbors. Even if the deal fails, we still have friendship. How can you write such slogans? You can't beat customers without reason. Otherwise, what will happen if all the customers run away?" After Xu Huizhen finished speaking, she walked away with the big rooster in her hand, smiling.

After a while, Xu Huizhen came to He Yuzhu with two wine jugs with a modern flavor and a plate of pickles, and said, "Your chicken needs to be stewed for a while, you can eat it first."

"No hurry, no hurry." He Yuzhu said slowly.

"Sir, what is your name?" Xu Huizhen asked calmly.

"Free, my last name is He, He Yuzhu, and I work in a steel rolling mill." After saying this, He Yuzhu showed his work ID.

This was normal during this period. The tavern was not only a place to eat and drink, but also had the functions of fire prevention, theft prevention and enemy spies prevention. When a stranger came to the tavern, it was normal for the person in charge of the tavern to inquire about the visitor's information. "It turned out to be Director He from the steel mill. How did Director He have time to come to my tavern?" Xu Huizhen asked.

At the same time, Xu Huizhen's mind suddenly became clear and she understood why He Yuzhu came with a chicken. As the deputy director of the canteen of such a large factory as a steel rolling mill, he must have his own way.

After hearing He Yuzhu's question, if Xu Huizhen was not married, He Yuzhu would probably flirt with her by saying something like "I heard there is a very good boss lady here". However, Xu Huizhen was already married and had children, so if he said this again, he would be suspected of being a jerk.

"I also heard by chance that the pickles here are excellent and no worse than those in Liubiju, so I came here specially to taste them," said He Yuzhu.

"Oh~ This gentleman is a foodie. The pickles here are really excellent, and are not worse than those in Liubiju. You must try them. I guarantee that your trip to this tavern will be in vain." Xu Huizhen said with a smile.

"Not bad, it's really good." He Yuzhu nodded after tasting the pickles.

In this era when MSG had not yet become popular among the public, it was truly remarkable that this tavern could pickle ordinary pickles into this state.

"Then you eat first." Xu Huikua said and left.

He Yuzhu nodded. It was quite interesting to drink some wine and listen to these people chatting about whatever they wanted.

After a while, the dishes that He Yuzhu ordered came up one after another, and the last dish, stewed rooster, was also served. As a professional chef, He Yuzhu said that the cooking skills of the chef of this tavern were just average.

At this moment, a beautiful woman in cheongsam walked into the tavern. It was Chen Xueru. As soon as Chen Xueru entered the tavern, she became the focus.

A woman like Chen Xueru is almost always the focus wherever she goes, especially in her cheongsam, which seems to add a touch of bright color to this gray world.

After Chen Xueru entered the tavern, she took a quick look and instantly focused her gaze on He Yuzhu, or to be exact, on the plate of chicken on He Yuzhu's table.

"Xu Huizhen, you have been saying that there is no meat for a while, how come there is meat now? Are you making fun of me?" Chen Xueru said unhappily.

Although Chen Xueru was a wealthy person, it was still difficult for her to eat meat during this period. Not to mention her, even Li Huaide from the steel mill had difficulty getting some meat, which showed the scarcity of supplies.

"Xue Ru, you misunderstood. This chicken was brought by this gentleman himself. He just asked us to cook it for him." Xu Huizhen said.

"Where are you from?" Chen Xueru leaned forward, supported herself with her arms while lying in front of the counter and whispered into Xu Huizhen's ear, showing off her exquisite curves to the fullest.

"The deputy director of the steel mill canteen, He Yuzhu, said that he heard that my pickles are excellent and came to try them." Xu Huizhen said.

"Is it true?" Chen Xueru turned around, looked at He Yuzhu from a distance and asked.

"It's hard to say. I can't see through this person." Xu Huizhen said.

"Hmph, how many people have you met? Do you think that everyone should be seen through? Since you can't see through them, why don't you just ask directly? In my opinion, it's better to ask people like this directly." Chen Xueru said.

After Chen Xueru finished speaking, she came to He Yuzhu's table with two cups of wine and sat down without any hesitation.

"Hello, Director He, my surname is Chen, and my name is Chen Xueru. I'd like to invite you for a drink." Chen Xueru said generously.

"You and I don't know each other, and you invite me to drink on the first meeting? You must have something to ask for, right? Just tell me what it is, and I will do whatever I can." He Yuzhu said with a smile.

Sure enough, with supplies in hand, you are the boss wherever you go, and people will come to you for help.

"That's great! Since Director He is so happy, I won't hide it anymore. I would like to ask Director He to help me get some meat." Chen Xueru leaned forward and spoke in a low voice directly to the point.

"Haha, Ms. Chen, aren't you afraid of entrusting your trust to the wrong person?" He Yuzhu said with a smile while playing with the wine glass.
