Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

Chapter 83 Report Jia Dongxu (page 12)



He Yuzhu chuckled: "You want me to cook?"

"Isn't it okay? We are all neighbors and we should help each other. Which household won't have someone to do the work when the time comes?"

Yi Zhonghai's words made He Yuzhu very disgusted. There was a tradition of helping each other in this courtyard house, but the Jia family was different.

If there was a wedding, funeral, wedding or funeral in other people's house, Mrs. Zhang would complain that her back and legs were sore and would not help.

Of course Jia Dongxu would not ask for leave specifically when he was at work.

Now Yi Zhonghai has the nerve to ask him to help?

He Yuzhu asked: "Why should I go back to help? If someone else in the courtyard has helped us, it is only natural for me to return the favor. But there is something wrong with the Jia family, why should I be asked to work?"

Yi Zhonghai advised: "You can't say that. We are all neighbors. How can you stand by and watch Dongxu get married? You will also get married and have a happy event in two years?"

He Yuzhu said: "No, I don't have any neighbors who would force me to borrow someone else's house."

"Zhuzi, how can you say that? It's not a forced loan, it's because I want to rent your house!"

"Besides, you see now that Datong has entered, Dongxu still paid the rent, and Datong did not suffer any loss."

It was not time for He Yuzhu to expose his background, so he went to the prison to ask questions. Qian Datong didn't know anything about renting a house.

I don’t know how Jia Dongxu created a rental contract and deceived himself. Fortunately, he was smart and knew to go to Qian Datong to check.

But when I think about it, when Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu get married, they can't miss the good show by themselves. They will still have to go back then.

He Yuzhu said: "When will they get married?"

"On the tenth day of the seventh lunar month, did you promise to cook?"

"You don't have to cook. I'm still an apprentice. I can still go to the wedding banquet."

Yi Zhonghai frowned and said earnestly: "Zhuzi, you see, we have been neighbors for decades. When your father was here before, your father was in charge of weddings and funerals. You can't lose this tradition. , how about others not talking about you?"

He Yuzhu asked: "How much does it cost for a table?"

"Give me money? What money?" Yi Zhonghai said, "When your father was here before, he didn't want any money."

"Don't lie to me. He Daqing doesn't want money, but when did he not bring meat back? It's okay not to pay. How many kilograms of meat will be given for making a table?"

Yi Zhonghai didn't answer immediately. He Yuzhu was really not stupid anymore and couldn't listen to his deception.

I originally thought about asking He Yuzhu to cook for free, but it seemed that was not possible.

But if I spend money on He Yuzhu, I feel like I'm at a loss.

"Zhuzi, look, I lent you so much money before, just to cook two tables of meals. It hurts my feelings to ask for money."

"I remember you said you wanted to borrow money. I wanted to borrow another 100 yuan before. How are you thinking about it?"

Yi Zhonghai said dissatisfied: "Go and talk to Sister-in-law Zhang. I didn't expect that you, He Yuzhu, could do such a thing."

"That means there's nothing to talk about?"

"I won't borrow it." After Yi Zhonghai discussed it, he asked the two of them to consummate their marriage last night, and they all went to get their marriage certificate today.

Why should you lend He Yuzhu money again?

He Yuzhu said: "Forget it, I'm not like you. I like to spread good news behind your back. If you don't borrow it, I will pull it down."

When you are gathering sheep, you cannot always gather one sheep, nor can you gather hundreds of dollars in the same position. It is enough.

"Don't try to persuade me. I won't cook for you. Otherwise, if someone gets food poisoning, it will be all on me."

"How come you can't eat enough food and salt?"

Yi Zhonghai tried some more words of persuasion, but He Yuzhu refused to nod and agreed to help with the cooking. He was joking and said that if someone else was handling the matter, he would do his best and help out.

After all, they are all fellow villagers. They help themselves when they have something to do, and they will come over to work when they have something to do.

When Yi Zhonghai saw that He Yuzhu didn't agree to give it for free, he started to raise the price. However, He Yuzhu was already impatient and was too lazy to bother with him and refused to pay him.

Yi Zhonghai sighed, and then asked: "I heard from the chef at Tai Feng Building that this braised vegetable restaurant is yours?"

"Of course not, I'm just here to help." Of course He Yuzhu would not admit that he opened the stewed vegetable restaurant by himself.

Yi Zhonghai looked up at the signboard again, feeling a little confused. He Yuzhu's words could not be believed now. He would just ask around later.

After seeing Yi Zhonghai off, He Yuzhu looked at the calendar and saw that there were only a few days until the tenth day of July or July.

It seems that my plan is about to begin.

In the evening, Tiedan came over with a jar of wine, and Tian Zao also brought a gift. He Yuzhu complained and invited them to the private room upstairs.

This was originally a workshop, but He Yuzhu had it converted into a private room for later opening of a restaurant.

Tian Zao looked at the two-story wooden round table and asked in surprise: "What kind of table are you making?"

He Yuzhu did not answer immediately, but walked up and gently pushed the round table above.

The upper layer began to rotate, and the sound of the bearings rotating below could be heard.

"This is a rotating round table I designed. If there are a large number of people eating together, you can eat all the dishes without getting up."

Tian Zao was very curious, and several people sat at the table to study it. At this time, Huahua delivered 8 cold dishes.

He Yuzhu said: "You guys eat first, I'll go down and cook for you."

The stews are prepared in advance. He Yuzhu's best skill at the moment is that the Sichuan cuisine level has reached Level 6. However, they are almost all from the old capital, so although they cook Sichuan cuisine, they cannot be too spicy.

Dongpo pork elbow, braised crucian carp, braised pork with potatoes, boiled beef, four hot dishes.

The other ones are spicy chicken, mapo tofu, ants climbing a tree, fish-flavored shredded pork, kung pao chicken, and six stir-fries of twice-cooked pork.

After finishing, He Yuzhu came over to have dinner together.

"Look, you can just eat whatever you want. Why do you prepare so many dishes?" Tiedan complained directly.

"You are my master, so of course you have to show off your skills today." He Yuzhu said with a smile.

Tian Zao was shy, but still reached out and hit He Yuzhu: "I told you to talk nonsense, please stop shouting like that."

He Yuzhu smiled and asked: "Master, when will you marry Master?"

Tian Zao glared: "You are the only one who talks too much."

After He Yuzhu made a joke, Dayong and the others also joked about it. Anyway, they usually like him to make fun of the two of them. It is the biggest fun of this group of brothers.

After joking for a while, He Yuzhu sighed, and Dayong asked: "What's wrong?"

Haiyang also said: "What happened?"

He Yuzhu said: "Do you have such shameless neighbors?"

When He Yuzhu talked about the Jia family's previous borrowing of a house, everyone was extremely angry.

Tian Zao said, "Then you should just move out. That kind of neighbor is too annoying."

That's what it's like to live in a large courtyard. You can choose a house, but it's hard to choose a neighbor. Let alone now, even in 20 or 30 years, ordinary people will not be highly educated, especially some older women, who are not unreasonable at all. Thinking of taking advantage.
