Siheyuan: Superb comprehension? All skills are perfect
Chapter 56 How pathetic!
"Hey, people who really understand food are really amazing."
Chen Xueru smiled and said, "You are right, but the situation is different now. Not to mention wild things, even the digestive systems of chicken and duck are hard to come by. My sister's small business is about to go out of business."
"Isn't that what it is?"
He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Now that it is a public economy, I can become your confidant. I don't believe that Xu Hui is so incompetent that she can't solve this problem."
"Hey! This kind of talk really makes me uncomfortable," Chen Xueru said dissatisfiedly, "What 'Youth Lake'? Are you implying that I'm old? Look at me now. How can I look like an old lady? I'm still a young girl in my prime!"
As Chen Xueru spoke, she moved closer, raised her playful face, and urged him, as if to say, "Take a closer look!"
"Yes, yes, it's my mistake, I'm sorry." He Yuzhu quickly took a step back.
He knew very well that women like Chen Xueru seemed easy-going on the surface, but were actually very conservative deep down.
If I follow her words at this moment, I might get slapped in the face the next second?
"Okay, I'll go ask my friends how much leftovers they have. If there are any, I'll bring them to you." He Yuzhu said sincerely, "Sister Xueru, we can talk about it in the future. You did this out of the blue and it really scared me."
"What's wrong? Isn't having a wife enough trouble?" Chen Xueru said as she tapped his chest lightly with her finger and said seriously, "You know you are taken now, so don't have any messy thoughts. I won't forgive you!"
"Okay, okay, if you can't afford to offend me, can't you just hide away?"
He Yuzhu immediately turned around and ran away.
"Oh my! How can you be so unromantic!" Chen Xueru tried to stop him but failed, so she stamped her feet and said, "What a coward, what a wimp!"
Although she complained like this, she couldn't help but reveal a sly smile on her face.
"Xin'er, I have to wash the rice myself. Go check on the clothes." He Yuzhu went outside and went straight to the sink. "Xueru's words have confused me. You should communicate with her."
"How about I go take a look first, then come back to cook?" Li Anxin wiped the apron on her hands and looked at her husband with concern. "The doctor said you should rest, don't exhaust yourself."
"Don't worry, it's just washing rice and cooking, it won't be tiring," He Yuzhu took the aluminum alloy pot, "Go quickly, don't keep Sister Xueru waiting for too long."
"Then go ahead." Unable to persuade her husband, Li Anxin had to do as he asked and walked into the inner room.
Looking at the rice grains in the pot without even being sifted, He Yuzhu immediately understood that his wife was deliberately letting him spend time with Chen Xueru in silence. Thinking of those thoughts just now, He Yuzhu did feel a little guilty, but he did not dwell on it too much.
After bringing the bag of rice back to the house, He Yuzhu began to cook with experience. Then, he carefully examined the dishes brought by Chen Xueru, and with just a moment of imagination, he came up with many ways to improve the cooking. He decisively sliced the roast duck and planned to use the duck bones to make soup. Noticing that there was almost no meat, he exchanged some wild delicacies and tofu at the points mall and added them to their only casserole to stew.
In fact, the medicine decocting pot that the couple bought from Zhang Daxue was also a clay pot and could also be used for stewing, but he thought that this might affect the efficacy of the Chinese medicine, so he used it with caution and did not use it indiscriminately.
"You're almost married, so stop having so many weird ideas in your head all day long, or I'll punish you!" He Yuzhu said this with a slightly serious tone and then slipped out.
Chen Xueru wanted to stop him but failed. She stamped her feet helplessly and said, "Hey, you are such a coward!"
However, even though she was blaming him, she smiled quietly. She said to He Yuzhu, "Xin'er, leave the rice issue to me, and you go take care of your own clothes. Xueru mentioned a lot of details, but I don't understand them. You should go and talk to her."
Her husband suggested, “I’ll go look at the clothes later. Xueru is still waiting, so go over there quickly and don’t keep her waiting for too long.”
Faced with the care and persuasion of her lover, Li Anxin could not resist and had to go to the main hall. He Yuzhu glanced at the rice in the casserole and knew that his wife was trying to avoid distracting him. Thinking of his thoughts just now, he couldn't help but feel a little sorry, but that was all.
Similarly, He Yuzhu cooked and prepared food with great skill. This was during the three difficult years, and people generally did not wash rice carefully. A simple and nutritious bowl of rice soup was almost the best tonic during that period. Adults and children alike would happily accept it, and they only asked for cleanliness, adding more water to boil it, and sometimes they would even skip the rice washing process.
While the food was being stewed, the rice in the pot was not strictly selected and cleaned. He Yuzhu knew that this was his wife's attentive care and she did not want to disturb their little world. Although he felt guilty about this, he also felt warm and satisfied. In this way, during the difficult period, He Yuzhu and his family lived every day with their hearts and spent the warm time of life together.
In fact, the Chinese medicine pot that the couple bought was actually a clay pot, which can also be used for stewing soup. However, Zhang Daxue did not use it to make soup casually because of the need to stew medicine.
After He Yuzhu boiled duck bones, tofu and mountain mushrooms into a rich soup, he did not forget to use the remaining ingredients for further processing. The ingredients they need can be redeemed directly in the points mall. Although it is not very comprehensive, it has basically the commonly used ones, which is enough for them to use.
When He Yuzhu got busy, the entire courtyard of Building 95 was filled with the tempting aroma of meat. Even the nearby neighbors could not resist it. Even Chen Xueru, who was deep in the room, was attracted by the smell. She no longer had time to discuss clothes and directly lifted the curtain and walked out.
"I guessed it, Zhuzi, you're busy in the kitchen again." Chen Xueru smiled in surprise when she saw the various dishes on the dining table that seemed messy but were actually quite orderly. Although she already knew that He Yuzhu was a chef, she was still pleasantly surprised to find that his cooking skills were unexpectedly good.
Although the dishes on the table were all brought from familiar restaurants and were already very delicious for ordinary people, according to Chen Xueru's standards, she could tell just by the smell that after being carefully cooked by He Yuzhu, the taste of these dishes had at least been improved!
"Sis, you care about me so much, how can I not do my best?" He Yuzhu said with a smile, "Although the dishes are excellent, the taste will become bland over time. Even if it's just heating it up, there should be some expression of gratitude."
"Once I get better, I will definitely prepare some better ingredients, and then I will let you taste my cooking skills. Today's meal is just to express my feelings, so just enjoy it for now."
“That’s good,” Chen Xueru responded frankly, “but I’m also looking forward to that delicious meal.”
"Haha, it will be realized soon." He Yuzhu said with a light smile.
Noticing her husband starting to cook, Li Anxin immediately stepped forward to help. He Yuzhu unceremoniously instructed her to join him in the cooking. He just took this opportunity to improve his wife's cooking skills, after all, so that she would have someone to enjoy the food in the future.
Chen Xueru looked at the warm interaction between the young couple. Although she felt that the man was a little older, the scene was still touching. For her personally, the warmth of this simple life was what she had always dreamed of but could not always get.
Of course, Chen Xueru understands that everyone has different happiness in life. She cannot say that she is completely satisfied with her current situation, but in the eyes of most ordinary people, she is already very happy. If there is any deficiency, it may be in the emotional level.
"It's a pity. It would have been great if I had met such an excellent man earlier." Seeing He Yuzhu concentrating on making lunch, Chen Xueru couldn't help but feel a little regretful. But seeing the sweet and tacit moments between the couple, she couldn't help but think that the current situation is not bad.
After Li Anyi came back, she was slightly confused when she saw the scene in the main room of the courtyard. Her sister and brother-in-law were preparing lunch dishes, and the smell in the air was mouth-watering; the beautiful elder sister was sitting on the side, staring blankly.
Li Anyi was naive and found it difficult to understand all this, so she put down the backpack of carbonated drinks in her hand.
"Brother-in-law, I bought the drinks!" Li Anyi's words were full of the feeling of "asking for praise".
Seeing that some readers are worried that the protagonist may have problems interacting with women, I want to make it clear here: I am an LSP, but please don't get me wrong, the protagonist in my book is also a character who likes heavy tastes, but he will never send women away casually. His emotional path is not a mindless harem model, and he will carefully maintain the relationship with each woman to make it both satisfying and moderately real.
A little revelation: the characters I spent a lot of time and effort to create are all incorporated into the development of the story and establish complex relationships with the protagonist, which makes people feel enjoyable but not too exaggerated.

In Chen Xueru's opinion, after tasting He Yuzhu's cooking, she sighed: "It's a pity that such delicious food is not paired with wine."
Looking at the bottle of Arctic Ocean soda on the table, her expression revealed a hint of regret.
He Yuzhu immediately stood up and went into the inner room, holding out a black ceramic wine jar: "This is the farmhouse rice wine I redeemed from the points mall. I'm not sure if Xueru can adapt to it."
As he said this, he placed the jar on the table with a smile on his face.
An Xin saw the wine jar and quickly fetched the wine pot and cup: "It's great to have wine like this. Open it and let me smell it first. Is it fragrant?"
She urged with a look of surprise on her face.
When He Yuzhu removed the seal and opened the slightly dull old red silk inside the wine jar, the rich aroma of wine emanated from it.
"This fragrance is quite good!"
