Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

Chapter 65: Exposing lies (page 12)



Hong Henian said: "You can try Zhuzi's stir-fried dishes, they are no worse than mine."

Like ordinary stir-fries, even if Hong Henian cooked them himself, the taste would not be much better than He Yuzhu's.

After all, the upper limit of these dishes is just that, and it is no better to let a master cook it. My advantage is that I know more, and I can also make those difficult dishes to ensure good taste.

"Really?"

Zhang Zusheng was actually a little angry. If a helper apprentice wants to become a chef, he must first check it himself.

Although He Yuzhu is Hong Henian's apprentice, he still needs to confirm with himself that He Yuzhu has the ability to be a chef, and then as the head chef, he can communicate with the shopkeeper.

But the two sides maintained a relationship on the surface but were still somewhat hostile secretly.

Hong Henian went directly over to talk to the shopkeeper today. He didn't take himself seriously.

How will I manage myself as a head chef in the future?

This is also the reason why the shopkeeper didn't make any big announcement about He Yuzhu's promotion to a full-time job. He always wanted to save face for the head chef.

Zhang Zusheng took the chopsticks and tried it. The dishes cooked by He Yuzhu did taste better.

It seems that I have been training for a long time before. In order to get in, I just said that I would be an apprentice and I agreed.

Unexpectedly, He Yuzhu hid his cooking skills for two months before showing off his cooking skills. It seems that this person has a deeper mind and is not as loyal and honest as he seems on the surface.

Zhang Zusheng was very disgusted, but in this current situation, he couldn't chase people away.

After all, He Yuzhu is now nominally the master of cold dishes, so it makes sense for Hong Henian to teach him step by step how to make stir-fried dishes.

"Okay, just watch more and don't make any mistakes."

Zhang Zusheng dropped these words and returned to his seat.

Hong Henian smiled and said: "Zhuzhu, this can be considered as establishing a foothold. From now on, let Xu Huizhen cook all the cold dishes for you as much as possible. Come and learn how to cook with me more often."

"Okay, thank you Master."

After passing Zhang Zusheng's level, others won't say much.

If there is food in the private room, Hong Henian will take over and cook it himself.

He Yuzhu started and followed suit.

When cooking by yourself, each dish is a little bit of experience. If you learn from the master, you will also have experience, but it will be less.

At a glance, I saw Zhang Zusheng's son Zhang Jing'an leaving early.

He Yuzhu asked: "The chef is still so busy, and Zhang Jing'an just left?"

Hong Henian curled his lips and said with some disdain: "Zhang Jing'an is just a cook. If it weren't for his father, he wouldn't be able to be a chef. He leaves early at night many times, like a second-rate person."

He Yuzhu only worked half a day before and didn't know what happened at night. It seemed that Zhang Jing'an left often.

Moreover, I also discovered before that Zhang Jing'an was often away, and when he was there, he rarely did cooking, but only cooked some stewed dishes.

"Isn't he technically good?"

"Yeah, I'm not a chef."

Hong Henian casually said a few words about Zhang Jing'an, and the matter passed away.

At this time of night, there are just that many people. After all, there is no nightlife. After dark, the time to eat is relatively early and the time to finish is relatively early.

By about 9 o'clock, the kitchen had relaxed and the helpers and apprentices started to clean up. Hong Henian asked He Yuzhu to cook four portions of vegetables. Then he brought two lunch boxes and gave one to He Yuzhu and Ye Xiangqun each.

The three of them chatted while pushing their bicycles, and soon arrived at Hong Henian's house. Ye Xiangqun's house was in an alley not far away. It was actually very close, otherwise they wouldn't have studied cooking under him.

He Yuzhu followed his master into his home, first greeted his master's wife and senior sister, and also met his senior brother Hong Jindong who worked in Fengze Garden.

After talking for a while, He Yuyu came out of the house reluctantly.

He Yuzhu asked: "Why don't you want to go back with me?"

He Yuyu nodded: "Brother, can you not go back? My second sister and I sleep well, but I have to sleep by myself when I get home."

Children are like this. They don’t even want a home when they have playmates.

He Yuzhu said: "But if you don't go back, the neighbors in the courtyard will think that I sold you."

If He Yuzhu had a deep relationship with his master and his family, it wouldn't matter if He Yuzhu was left here, but in fact they only knew each other for such a short time that he always felt that he didn't want to trouble others.

It was already very embarrassing to bother Master’s wife to help carry rainwater during the day. He couldn’t let He Yuyu stay at Master’s house all day long.

The master and mistress also asked He Yuyu to stay, but He Yuzhu said: "No need, I will take Yuyu back from here in the future, and I will ask you to help me look after her at night. If it rains or snows occasionally, I will stay." It’s fine to be here with you.”

"That's fine too."

After bringing He Yuyu out, the mistress saw an extra lunch box on the table: "How could you bring one more?"

Hong Henian didn't pay attention just now, he was only focused on retaining He Yuzhu. He said that He Yuzhu had become a regular employee and today was the first time to bring food.

The teacher's wife said: "This child still blames Renyi for leaving the food here on the first day."

"This apprentice has really done a good job. The Puritan is good and he can already start cooking."

"Well, then when will you accept him as your official disciple?"

"Just wait and pick a good day."

He Yuyu followed He Yuzhu for a while before stopping, pouting and saying, "Brother, I'm tired."

He Yuzhu turned around and looked at the somewhat unhappy He Yuzhu, with helplessness on his face. He walked up to him and asked, "Then I will carry you?"

"Okay, okay, thank you, brother." He Yuyu instantly became happy.

He Yuzhu walked back with He Yuzhu on his back, wondering if it was time to buy a bicycle.

Now I have a stable income, which is 35 yuan a month. He Daqing also sent me yuan. Although he hasn't sent it yet, he should receive it soon.

Besides, I want money to catch some fish in the moat, and if I sell it, I will get a lot of money.

I didn't need a bicycle before, but now I have to work all day. There are no buses in the evening, only fixed trams, which are not convenient.

Although bicycles are very expensive now, costing about 300, you can still buy them if you bite the bullet.

The price of bicycles will have to be driven down until the First Five-Year Plan is carried out. Only then will factories and mines be vigorously built to increase bicycle production and reduce the price to less than 200 yuan.

He Yuyu looked like it wasn't heavy, but he was still tired from carrying it, so he asked, "Is it okay for my brother to buy a bicycle in a few days and then I can take you back on my bicycle at night?"

"Okay, okay, I have a bicycle to sit on."

When he entered the house and saw that the house had been repaired, He Yuzhu was still very excited, especially with the indoor bathroom. He Yuzhu taught her how to use it, and then told him to flush it every time and remember to lock the door.

The next day, He Yuzhu sent Yu Yu to school. After walking a few steps, he saw Tian Zao.
