Siheyuan: My life is my decision

Chapter 48 State-run Hotel



"Pillar Brother"

When the two brothers Yan Jiecheng saw He Yuzhu coming out, he shouted

"Uh-huh"

He Yuzhu nodded, then turned to look at Ma Hua's father's two apprentices.

"You guys stand on the left, and your two brothers stand on the right. Each of you holds the table and waits for my command."

"understood"

The four of them stood up according to He Yuzhu's request, and then held up the table

He Yuzhu flattened the cart and looked at the four people

"Hold on tight. When I count to three, you lift the table up. Then I pull out the trolley and you put the table on the ground."

"Understood"

"Okay, let's get started."

"1"

"2"

When He Yuzhu counted to 2, the four of them had already started to exert their strength.

"3"

As soon as He Yuzhu finished speaking, four people used their strength at the same time to lift the table. He Yuzhu immediately pulled out the cart when he saw this.

Seeing this, the four people slowly put down the table, but they did not put it on the ground.

Instead, he carried the table and walked into the small courtyard.

Ma Hua's father heard the noise outside and walked out of He Yuzhu's room.

"Zhuzi, this table is nice."

He Yuzhu heard the voice of Ma Hua's father and quickly ran to the front

"It's okay, hehe!"

He Yuzhu smiled and replied

"Brother Zhuzi, where is this table?"

Yan Jiecheng said

He Yuzhu looked at the small courtyard and then said

"Let's put it in the rainwater house first, and then put it in my house after it's finished."

After saying that, He Yuzhu opened He Yuzhu's room and walked in.

He Yuzhu's room was basically vacated. In order to have a place to sleep at night, He Yuzhu left the bed temporarily untouched.

The four people made the table horizontal, first diagonally inserted the two legs, and then used the gap between the door and the table to lift the table in.

The four people straightened the table and placed it on the floor of He Yuyu's room.

"Thank you for your hard work, thank you for your hard work"

He Yuzhu looked at several people

"Let's go have a meal"

The four of them followed He Yuzhu out of the room. After He Yuzhu moved the stool in, he locked He Yuzhu's room.

"Old man, let's go have a meal."

He Yuzhu looked at the old man and said

"Zhuzi, we're not going. You can take them with you. Someone needs to keep an eye on the things in the courtyard, otherwise what will happen if they are lost?"

The old man waved his hand

He Yuzhu was just about to say that there was nothing wrong, no need to look, nothing would be lost.

But when I think of the two white-eyed wolves in the Jia family, I don’t know what’s going on during this time. Bangge and his grandma Jia Zhang didn’t see much movement.

But it is necessary to be on guard against others. I am indeed a little worried, but I cannot let the old man stay and look at things.

"How about I free you to stay and look at things, and I'll have someone bring you food later?"

He Yuzhu looked at Yan Jiefang and said

"Brother Zhuzi, go ahead, I'll take care of these things."

Yan Jiefang patted his chest and said without thinking.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

He Yuzhu patted Yan Jiefang's shoulder and said

"Old man, he can just stay. You can come with us."

He Yuzhu walked to MCA's father, pulled him and walked out.

"Pillar, pillar..."

Ma Hua's father was still struggling a little, but He Yuzhu's strength was too great. After struggling for a while, he didn't struggle. In the end, he could only follow He Yuzhu out of the small courtyard.

Yan Jiefang looked at the four people who were leaving and rubbed his hungry stomach.

"Wait a little longer. Brother Zhuzhu will bring delicious food to you soon."

After saying this to himself, he pulled up a stool and sat at the door of He Yuzhu's room, looking at the things in the yard.

He Yuzhu pulled Ma Hua's father, followed by three people, out of the alley entrance of the courtyard, and walked not far before arriving at the state-owned hotel.

This is the first time He Yuzhu has come to a state-owned hotel after traveling through time.

Standing in front of the state-owned hotel, He Yuzhu looked at the logo of this era

Above the door, there are four big red characters "State-owned Hotel" written, and there is a red five-pointed star directly above the four characters "State-owned Hotel".

There are four large red characters on the wall to the left and the wall to the right of the entrance of the state-owned hotel.

Left: Self-reliance

Right: hard work

The main door of the state-owned hotel is four conjoined doors. The entire door frame is painted with red paint. The upper half of each door is made of glass and the lower half is made of wood.

In this era of China, eating out is basically done in state-owned restaurants.

During this period, it was very respectable to be able to have a meal in a state-owned hotel, not to mention the employees who could work there, it was even more respectable.

He Yuzhu led the four people in and found a table for them to sit down.

It's almost one o'clock now, and there are not many people coming to eat. There are still two tables for dinner in the hall. The other tables are empty, and there is no one queuing at the window.

After He Yuzhu arranged for them to sit down, he came to the grocery shopping window

"Hello, comrade, I'll order food."

A female salesperson about 30 years old was standing in the window. She heard He Yuzhu's voice and looked outside.

"Comrade, what do you want to order?"

He Yuzhu looked at the many wooden tags hanging above the window, with the names of various dishes written on them.

"One piece of beef in sauce, one piece of braised pork, one piece of shredded pork with green pepper, two vegetarian dishes, then a bowl of three delicacies soup, and rice for six people."

He Yuzhu said

The eldest lady inside looked at him in surprise when He Yuzhu reported the name of the dish. Is this man rich? Why is it so luxurious?

"Comrade, Comrade"

He Yuzhu looked at the salesperson who made no movement and shouted twice more

"Oh, sorry"

The female salesperson looked at He Yuzhu with a surprised look and her face felt a little hot.

"It's okay, please calculate how much the food I just ordered is."

"Wait a minute, you just ordered five dishes and one soup."

"A portion of beef with soy sauce is 8 cents, a portion of braised pork is 8 cents, a portion of shredded green pepper pork is 5 cents, two vegetarian dishes are 4 cents each, a total of 3 cents, then a bowl of three fresh soup is 3 cents, and rice for six people is [-] cents. A total of [-] yuan and food stamps”

After hearing the quotation, He Yuzhu took out 3 yuan and food stamps from his pocket and handed them to the salesperson. After taking them, the salesperson gave He Yuzhu a number.

He Yuzhu took the number and felt a little upset in his heart.

Damn it! The gap between this and the consumption of later generations is too big. In later generations, the cheapest bowl of egg fried rice cost six yuan, and three bottles of water could buy up to three bottles of water. It was still the cheapest kind.

In later generations, he heard that there were also expensive mineral waters. They seemed to be imported, and a bottle cost more than 100.

There are so many dishes at this time, but they only cost 3 yuan, even though they require food stamps.

In later generations, a table like this would probably cost around two hundred in a slightly better restaurant.

He Yuzhu shook his head, returned to them with the number and sat down.

"Zhuzi, don't order too much, just enough to eat."

Ma Hua’s father looked at He Yuzhu and said

“Old man, I didn’t order more.”

He Yuzhu looked up at Ma Hua's father and found that he was a little reserved. Then he turned to the other three people who were also very reserved.

They all sat there honestly and looked serious.

He Yuzhu blinked and suddenly thought, this couldn't be their first time entering a state-owned hotel, right?

"The food will be ready in a while, don't be too formal, just relax."

Fortunately, if He Yuzhu didn't say anything, they seemed more reserved. He Yuzhu didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, the wait was not long. After a while, He Yuzhu heard the salesperson calling the number he had just taken.

He Yuzhu raised his hand, and the salesperson came over with the dishes.

Sauced beef, braised pork, shredded pork with green pepper, two vegetarian dishes, a bowl of three delicacies soup, and a bowl of rice for six people, filling the table

"Gudong"

Except for He Yuzhu, the four of them stared at the dishes on the table with their eyes wide open and swallowed their saliva.
