Siheyuan: Starting at 52, I, He Daqing, will not run away

No. 45, Xijiaominxiang!

When He Daqing followed his second uncle Guan Yushan to the door of the Chen family, he finally understood what he meant by"rich family background".

After all, in this era, not every family can afford an independent small western-style building.

Otherwise, even if Guan Yushan assured him that the old Chen family was not a capitalist, he would have to doubt Chen Xueru's family background.

"No doubt!"

"The Chen family is not simple. They have been doing business for generations. They have no shortage of family wealth or connections."

"In fact, Chen Qingyuan's family is just a branch of the Chen family. Otherwise, do you think that after Chen Qingyuan's death, your little girlfriend and her daughter can keep this property?"

"In other words, there is no simple old shop that can survive in Beijing today. Otherwise, even if it can escape the looting of the Japanese, it will not be able to escape the plundering of the Kuomintang when it retreats."

"But these are all things of the past, there is no need to say more, you just need to know that your girlfriend's family is not as simple as it seems, don't let her down, or if you get beaten up by her family one day, don't say I didn't remind you."

About Shan Youyou said, as if to remind, but also as a warning

"Which Chen family is the second uncle talking about?" He Daqing was curious. Guan

Shan shook his head and said in a somewhat secretive manner:"Don't ask around. It's not good to know too much. You just need to know that the old Chen family is not simple. If you can marry a girl from the Chen family, it will definitely be a great honor for your ancestors."

"Of course, you shouldn't expect too much. After all, Chen Qingyuan and his people are already five generations apart from that person. At most, there is only a little bit of incense left. So if anything really happens, you will have to bear the consequences yourself."

"I tell you all this just because I hope you won't let the girl down and don't worry about the background of her family. Just live a good life in the future."

"Let's go. I hope I can still save some face and get this done for you."

After saying this, Lu Shan ignored He Daqing and walked straight towards Chen Xueru's small western-style building.

Seeing this, He Daqing nodded thoughtfully, then quickly followed with his things.

…………

At the same time, at Chen Xueru's house,

Chen Xueru was also talking about He Daqing with Chen's mother.

At first, when Chen's mother heard her daughter say that she had a boyfriend and that the guy's elders would come to visit later, she was quite happy.

After all, her daughter is already 21 years old, and if she doesn't find a boyfriend, she will be an old maid.

She often worries about her daughter's marriage.

But it's not good for her daughter to be too outstanding, as she doesn't like the guys she introduced to her.

Now she has finally found someone she likes, and it seems that the guy is pretty good and has a good family background. How can Chen's mother not be happy?

But when she learned that He Daqing had been married before and had two children, the smile on her face disappeared completely.

No matter what Chen Xueru said, she was not willing to do it. Finally, she was pushed to the limit by her daughter, so she gave in and said that she would talk about it after she met the guy.

"Madam, Miss, a guest has come and wants to visit you."

Just as Chen Xueru was constantly speaking well of He Daqing to her mother, a woman in her forties dressed as a servant came in and reported to the two. Upon hearing this, Chen Xueru hurriedly got up from the sofa, tidied up her slightly messy hair and clothes, and said to her mother,"Mom, we have already agreed that you must not give He Daqing and Uncle Guan a bad look."

""Okay, okay, okay, I get it. Go and greet them quickly. Don't let people say that our Chen family has no manners."

Mother Chen said helplessly when she heard the woman's words.

"I know mom is the best."

Chen Xueru took her mother's arm and acted like a spoiled child, then ran away with a smile to pick up He Daqing and his nephew.

Seeing this, Chen's mother shook her head.

She was very curious now, what kind of charm did He Daqing have that could make her daughter so confused?

…………

When Chen Xueru arrived at the door and saw He Daqing and his nephew carrying large and small bags of gifts, she hurriedly greeted Guan Yushan and said,"Uncle, you are here, please come in!"

It must be said.

Chen Xueru's family conditions are much better than He Daqing's.

Apart from other things, the price of this small western-style building alone is more than twice as expensive as the courtyard houses in the same location in this era.

Especially inside the small western-style building, the decoration is also very modern. There are not only sofas, coffee tables, phonographs, radios, large clocks, electric fans and other items, but also many exquisite porcelains and calligraphy and paintings.

The only thing I don't know is whether these porcelains, calligraphy and paintings are real or fake.

However, thinking of the TV series, Xu Huizhen and Chen Xueru often buy antiques.

He Daqing is more inclined to believe that the porcelains, calligraphy and paintings he visited here are real, but he doesn't know how much they are worth.

Guan Yushan handed the gift to the servant beside him, and didn't even look at the decoration in the living room of the Chen family. He smiled and greeted Chen's mother,"Sister-in-law Chen, long time no see."

""Hey, what wind brings the Nine Gates Admiral here today? Please take a seat, please take a seat!"

Mother Chen greeted with a smile, but her eyes were always looking at He Daqing standing behind the mountain, as if she wanted to see what was so special about this woman in front of her that could charm her strong-willed daughter.

First of all, her appearance. She was not ugly, but she was not handsome either.

Age?

To be honest, if his daughter hadn't told him that He Daqing was already in his thirties and had two children, he would have thought that the young man in front of him was only in his twenties and looked much younger than his actual age.

Finally, it was temperament.

How to say it.

He Daqing's temperament was unusual. He didn't look like a cook at all. He gave people a very mature and confident feeling.

After seeing He Daqing, Mother Chen seemed to understand why her daughter would like such a person.

Because this kind of maturity and confidence is undoubtedly very attractive to young girls.

""Hello, Auntie!"

He Daqing looked at Chen's mother, who was in her forties, and called out without any embarrassment.

Embarrassed?

Sorry.

He Daqing never knew what this word meant.

"Well, you sit down too!"

Mother Chen said lightly.

Although she was not very satisfied with He Daqing, her good upbringing determined that she could not do anything to drive him away directly, so she could only reply indifferently.

Next was the performance of the cheap second uncle about the mountain.

This old man was also a man of good words. In a few words, he described He Daqing as a young and promising guy of the new era who was honest, sentimental, responsible, capable, knowledgeable, filial, and versatile. He Daqing blushed a little after hearing this.

Good guy.

As expected of the Nine Gates Admiral, this mouth can really speak, and he can turn bad things into good things, and good things into better things. He just short of turning dead things into living things..

In the end, he even said that it is a new society and a new era now, and new ways and new things are important. Family background is not important, and arranged marriages are no longer popular. As long as two people like each other, it is better to let the young people make the decision themselves. As for the betrothal gifts and the like.

Although the old man had already sealed and brought them, he did not mention a word.

After all, the Chen family is really not short of money.

Marriage is such a reality. When rich families get married, they will never worry about the betrothal gifts, betrothal gifts, three golds and five golds, because they are not short of this little money.

On the contrary, the poorer the family, the more they care about this, because they have no money, and they want to test the sincerity of the man and guarantee the woman's These things can only be used to talk about the happiness of the marriage of the daughter.

The gift money worth more than two thousand yuan may be a sky-high price in this era.

But you have to understand that, regardless of the financial situation of the Chen family, the Xueru Silk Shop in the hands of Chen Xueru can make a profit of two to three hundred yuan a day. These gift money is at most ten days' profit.

And He Daqing's steamed bun shop, although only opened for two days, can also make a profit of three to four hundred a day.

With this calculation. Do you still think that the two thousand dowry given by He Daqing is too much?

Therefore, the amount of dowry has never been divided by the amount of money, but is determined by the economic strength of the man.

During this period, Chen's mother also asked He Daqing some She wanted to know more about He Daqing's personal situation.

He Daqing answered all the questions fluently without any nervousness. (To read the novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

She also expressed her own thoughts on Chen's mother's questions.

In fact, if anyone has experienced dozens of blind dates and interrogations by the girl's parents before traveling through time, they can answer them fluently.

In short, after some interrogation and communication, Chen's mother was quite satisfied with He Daqing.

Considering that He Daqing is Guan Shan's nephew, if her daughter really wants to marry He Daqing, Guan Shan will be able to take care of them no matter what happens in the future.

Chen's mother acquiesced to this marriage.[]

Of course, these are not the most important. The most important thing is that Chen Xueru has been sitting next to He Daqing since he entered the house. Like a little wife, the two held hands, as if silently declaring their determination.

This made Chen's mother sigh in her heart that"a girl should not be kept at home", and she could only agree to their marriage.

After all, no one knows a daughter better than her mother. Seeing her daughter's performance, Chen's mother knew that her daughter would pay attention to it. No matter how much she opposed it, she would not separate from He Daqing.

In this case, fortunately, the two of them will be happy.

Isn't it just a ten-year age difference?

It's not very big.

In the end, Chen's mother and Guan Yushan decided to set the wedding date of He Daqing and Chen Xueru in half a month, and it would not be a big event. Just set up two tables in the yard of He Daqing Zhengyang Gate.

It's not that you can't go to a restaurant.

It's just that in this era, the Three Antis and Five Antis have just passed, and it's time to keep a low profile, and you must not be the first bird to stand out.

Moreover, whether it is Chen Xueru's family or He Daqing's family, there are not many relatives in the city now, so there is no need to be too ostentatious.

By the time the matter was almost discussed, it was almost time for lunch.

Nothing much to say.

He Daqing was the one who cooked, with Aunt Zhang, the nanny of the Chen family, and Chen Xueru helping him.

At this time, He Daqing's cooking level had recovered to [Cooking Rating Lv5:280/3200], which was equivalent to the level of a level 6 cook in reality. There would be no problem with the food he cooked.

0 Asking for flowers

Don't be surprised why He Daqing's cooking level recovered so quickly.

Anyone who has to make hundreds of big meat buns and one or two thousand tea eggs a day can quickly master the basic cooking skills deep in his memory.

Especially this time, in order to please his mother-in-law and let her see his cooking skills.

He Daqing also used his specialty, golden egg fried rice.

He immediately satisfied his mother-in-law.

Let He Daqing come often in the future.

…………

On the way back,

He Daqing and Guan Yushan chose to walk to help digest their food.

"The golden egg fried rice you made at noon was very good, but the other dishes need to be improved." On the way, Guan Yushan commented on He Daqing's cooking skills.

Although he is not a chef, he is no stranger to food.

He can still taste the quality of the food and what level it is.

It's nothing else. It's because he ate too much in the past.

He Daqing was not surprised to hear this evaluation, and explained with a smile:"The reason why my second uncle criticized me is mainly because I have been making big pot meals in the steel rolling mill for a long time in the past two years, and my level of stir-fry has been affected to some extent. After getting familiar with it again during this period of time, I will definitely be able to improve it."

Whether a chef's skills are good or not mainly consists of two parts.

One is the basic skills of cooking, and the other is recipes and special dishes.

The basic skills of cooking are the most important. As long as the basic skills are practiced,���If you have reached the level of perfection, even if it is just a home-cooked stir-fry, you can beat many professional chefs by a lot.

For example, the cooking evaluation of the God of Cooking system is the evaluation of basic cooking skills.

As long as you improve the basic cooking skills to the extreme and give you a top-notch recipe, you will naturally become a master chef.

Of course, it is only a master chef.

If you want to become a master chef and a god chef, you are still a long way off.

What is a master? The so-called master, in the traditional sense, refers to a person who has made extraordinary achievements in a certain professional field and is then respected and regarded as a model.

To put it more simply, it is a master who has extremely high achievements in a certain field or multiple fields, who can innovate, set up his own school, or even accommodate hundreds of schools and create a brand new theoretical system.

That is, a master-level figure who is capable of establishing a school is called a master.

So if you want to become a master chef, you can't just learn the recipes of your predecessors.

You must innovate, create your own recipes and cooking system, and establish a school.

For example, Sichuan cuisine has not yet become an independent system.

If He Daqing can organize all Sichuan cuisines into one style and establish a Sichuan cuisine system, then he is qualified to be called a master chef.

And the God of Cooking above the Master of Cooking? All right.

Please forgive He Daqing's lack of knowledge, because he really doesn't know what level he has to reach to be called a God of Cooking.

It can't be like the top medicinal cooking formulas provided by the system.

Integrate medicinal food into cooking and research top medicinal dishes with special effects, right? If someone can really research a cooking formula like the Golden Crow Medicinal Tea Eggs.

He Daqing feels that such a person, even if he is not a God of Cooking, he is probably not too far away from the level of a God of Cooking, and can definitely be called a"Grand Master of Cooking"!

Unfortunately, such a realm is obviously not something that He Daqing can touch now.

Now he hasn't even mastered the basic skills of cooking, let alone coveting the realm of the Grand Master of Cooking, the Grand Master of Cooking, and the legendary God of Cooking.

"Hum, speaking of this, I can't help but get angry"

"I asked Ziqing to hand over the building to you, so that our He's restaurant can reopen."

"As a result, you turned the restaurant into a steamed bun shop."

"If I had known this would happen, I would have shamelessly invited back the old master chef from Zai Hui Lou."

When Lu Yanshan heard He Daqing say that his cooking skills declined because he worked in the steel rolling mill, he couldn't help but think of the fact that Zai Hui Lou was converted into a steamed bun shop, and he was immediately furious.

Hearing this, He Daqing couldn't help but smile bitterly and said,"Second Uncle, actually I have my reasons for doing this."

When Lu Yanshan heard He Daqing say that he had his reasons, his expression eased a little, but he still said with a cold face,"What reasons? Not enough money, or do you feel that you can't support our He family's restaurant?"

He Daqing shook his head.

He glanced at the cold and depressed streets of Sijiu City in winter, and sighed,"Second Uncle, what do you think?���Is it really suitable to open a restaurant in the current situation?"

"To put it bluntly, let alone opening the He Family Restaurant, I don’t even think that the He Family Baozi Shop I’m running now can be maintained in the future."

"The Three Antis and Five Antis campaign had just ended, and a large number of factories were being operated as public-private partnerships. If we really opened a restaurant, the supply of alcohol and beverages alone would be a big problem, not to mention other things."

"Not to mention, nowadays, the public opinion is clamoring to cut off the capitalists' tails and completely eliminate the capitalists." He Daqing couldn't help shaking his head when he said this, looking at Guan Yushan and sighing again, he said:" Second uncle, if I open a restaurant, what if the policy above changes, can this restaurant really be saved?"".
