Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

Chapter 23 Rent a House



Although knife skills are basic, no matter how well you practice, you are still just a chopping board master.

The most important thing about being a chef is the skill on the stove. The sweet and delicious fried food is the most intuitive expression.

And for He Yuzhu, Hong Henian's willingness to teach Xiao Chao's skills also shows that he recognized this apprentice and started the next step of teaching.

Before liberation, there was a tradition of three years of study and two years of service as an apprentice. Generally, in the first year of an apprenticeship, they just contributed to the work at the master's home. After examining their character, they began to slowly teach some skills in the second year.

Hong Henian originally wanted to investigate for a longer period of time, but the plan could not keep up with the changes.

When He Daqing ran away, He Yuzhu took on the responsibility of supporting the family and taking care of his young sister.

If he were an ordinary person, he might be unable to recover, but He Yuzhu worked hard and could see the progress of technology every day, and he could also take good care of his sister.

From this point of view, there is no problem with the character and the foundation of the chef, so Hong Henian decided to teach some cooking skills in advance, so that he can learn the skills of a chef one day earlier, and transform from a helper apprentice to a formal chef in the kitchen.

When it was time to cook again, Hong Henian called He Yuzhu to the stove. He Yuzhu first did the cooking work and helped put the vegetables on the plate and put them next to him.

Then Hong Henian started cooking and taught the essentials of stir-fry.

What He Yuzhu didn't notice was that Zhang Yong not far away cast a resentful look.

Zhang Yong wanted to become a chef before, but he had no talent in cooking, and the food he made tasted just average. It might be okay if it was an ordinary small restaurant, but this is one of the eight buildings in Tai Feng Tower in Beijing. Every dish must be delicious in color, flavor and taste.

Zhang Yong's skills are not up to par, so he can only be a knife master for a long time.

He had just reprimanded He Yuzhu in the morning, but then he was asked by Hong Henian to learn how to cook, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of resentment in his heart.

In a blink of an eye, it was time to get off work. He Yuzhu came home from get off work and bought a few candied haws on the way.

After entering the middle courtyard, He Yuyu ran over immediately after seeing it. He Yuzhu took out a bunch of candied haws and handed it over.

He Yuyu, who was a little angry, suddenly smiled and happily took it and started eating it.

"Did anyone bully you?"

He Yuyu shook his head and didn't reply. His little mouth was already filled with hawthorn.

He Yuzhu asked a few more questions to make sure no one was bullying him, and that was all.

I had offended Xu Damao and Jia Dongxu, and was always afraid that they would take the opportunity to bully Xiao Yuyu. Fortunately, nothing like this happened.

Just as he was about to enter the house with He Yuyu in hand, he saw three people coming out of the west wing. In addition to two acquaintances, Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu, there was also an unknown person.

After the three people came out, they stood in the middle courtyard and pointed at the house. As soon as they saw it, something happened.

He Yuzhu let Yuyu go into the house to play by himself, and then stayed outside to listen to their conversation.

After listening to a few words, it became clear that this was a master bricklayer, and the three of them were discussing the renovation of Jia Dongxu's house.

Tian Xiu clearly told Jia Dongxu before leaving that she was not satisfied with the house. Jia Dongxu came back to see his mother because it was a major matter of marriage. Jia Zhang also gritted his teeth and nodded and agreed, willing to pay to renovate the house.

In order to apologize, Yi Zhonghai contacted the construction team and invited people over today to see how the house would be done.

Jia Dongxu rolled his eyes and suddenly had an idea, so he shouted: "He Yuzhu, come here, I have something to tell you."

He Yuzhu was a little surprised why Jia Dongxu was so polite, but he still took two more steps to come to him and asked, "What's the matter?"

Jia Dongxu said: "I want to discuss it with you. You see, I am going to build a house soon, and everything in the house has to be moved out."

"Stop it, stop talking, I won't lend you these three houses."

You can pay attention to his words, and you will know that he has made the idea of ​​renting a house again.

Due to his nature of fake decoration, if he lent it out, there was absolutely no chance of him paying it back, so he rejected it directly.

But Jia Dongxu said: "I don't want to lend you these three houses."

"Then what do you want to do?"

Jia Dongxu said: "Look, you two brothers and sisters have four rooms. Can the east wing room be freed up for me to put some furniture, and I can move it back after the house is repaired?"

It turned out that Jia Dongxu had this idea. Since the main room of the three rooms was not willing to be borrowed, he opened his mouth to borrow the one on the east side.

At present, both He Yuzhu and He Yuyu live in the main house, and the east room is vacant. Jia Dongxu just wants to borrow it first, even if the tattered furniture will occupy the house after it is repaired.

Jia Dongxu had already thought about it, and if he didn't come forward then, he would let his mother deal with He Yuzhu.

After getting married, I and my wife will live in three rooms in the west wing, and let my wife live in the room in the east wing, so that they will not affect each other.

But He Yuzhu was like a bright mirror in his heart. He, Jia Dongxu, said that he had made up his mind that even that house could not be lent to him by Jia Dongxu.

He Yuzhu shook his head: "I won't borrow it."

Jia Dongxu took a deep breath, held down the fire in his heart, and said, "Can't I rent your house? I'll pay you rent every month."

"Seeing as your father is gone, you are still just an apprentice. What will you eat if you don't have money?"

"I'm renting your house for your own good. Your life will be easier with the rent."

He Yuzhu smiled as he watched Jia Dongxu persuading him eloquently, thinking that like every teacher, like a disciple.

Jia Dongxu wasn't very good at technique, but he was very good at Yi Zhonghai's deceptive words.

If you were an ordinary person, you might have been fooled by Jia Dongxu and happily rented out the house.

He Yuzhu still shook his head: "I won't rent."

Jia Dongxu still wanted to persuade, but Yi Zhonghai said: "Zhu Zhu, Dongxu is right. You have no source of income now. Renting out a house that you can't live in will also relieve your life pressure."

"I said I won't rent, why do you have to rent mine?" He Yuzhu asked.

"How come this kid doesn't know what to do? We are doing this for your own good." Yi Zhonghai said angrily.

"What does it mean to be good for me? Of course I can live my own life. If I say I won't rent, I won't rent."

He Yuzhu turned around angrily and walked out.

"Hey, don't leave?" Jia Dongxu shouted from behind.

Yi Zhonghai said: "Forget it, I'll figure it out later."

Of course, when repairing the house, all the furniture must be moved out. Since He Yuzhu was unwilling, he had to find another way.

He Yuzhu went to the toilet, and when he came back, he saw the three of them still discussing things in the yard.

Just walked over.

Jia Dongxu said angrily: "He Yuzhu, what else do you want to do?"

"none of your business?"

He Yuzhu replied, and then said to the master bricklayer: "Master, since you are here, don't mind taking on one more job. Let's see if my house needs some repairs."
