Siheyuan: He Yuzhu starts with god-level cooking skills

But even after hearing what He Yuzhu said, He Daqing's face still turned red and he was too embarrassed to speak.

Seeing that He Daqing was hesitant, He Yuzhu's patience was exhausted.

He finally spoke, his tone a little shy, "Hey, Dad is still young, only forty years old." He stammered, "Living alone is indeed lonely..."

Before Daqing finished speaking, He Yuzhu already understood, and he felt secretly helpless.

This father, who is over fifty years old, is old at heart but young at heart. He just got rid of the widow Qin's entanglement, and he can't wait to find a companion?

You know, He Yuzhu himself is about to get married. If his father really marries a little woman, he will be ashamed to face his relatives and friends! Even if He Yuzhu thinks so, since he has promised to take good care of He Daqing, this problem needs to be solved after all.

Otherwise, He Daqing might cause other trouble.

Thinking back to the days in the courtyard house, Qin Huairu was full of covetousness towards his home.

Although he has seen through Qin Huairu's true face, what if Qin Huairu throws herself into his arms...

When Jia Dongxu was still alive, he could still tolerate the care and warmth from his neighbors to avoid worrying about the cold winter, but... if Qin Huairu really became his father's bedside companion, it would be much more terrifying.

Thinking of this, He Yuzhu shuddered unconsciously and immediately said, "Don't worry, Dad. Once you have settled down, I will arrange a marriage for you."

"I will definitely find a pure, unmarried girl for you." The term "virgin girl" made He Daqing nod his head repeatedly to show his agreement. "Okay, okay, everything will be done as you say."

Compared to a widow, a virgin is undoubtedly a better choice, isn't it? He Daqing began to immerse himself in the vision of a happy life in the future, while He Yuzhu began to think about how to arrange his actions.

He Yushui, who was standing aside, looked at the two of them, with a smile on his face that never stopped.

When the three of them returned to the courtyard in the city, the neighbors came out to greet them with smiles on their faces. "Daqing, your son is really promising!" "That's right, Lao He, you can rest assured and enjoy the good life with him." "Did you just get back, Lao He? Come to my house for dinner tonight, I've prepared some delicious dishes..."

Many neighbors were delighted to see He Daqing return, because although He Yuzhu was gradually becoming successful, they could no longer enjoy his protection after leaving the courtyard.

If you want to ask He Yuzhu for help, the relationship between the neighbors may no longer be the same as before, and He Yuzhu may not be willing to help.

However, what is unexpected is that He Daqing has returned home, which means that they are related to He Yuzhu again.

The neighbors were secretly thinking about how enthusiastic they were about He Daqing's return.

This touched He Daqing's heart. After more than a year of separation, the courtyard had changed so much.

He couldn't help but agree with everything he had questioned before - the people in the yard were unpredictable.

He knew the character of the people in this courtyard very well: If it weren't for his son's performance, would they treat him like this? There was only one person named Jia Dongxu, his expression was gloomy, his mother was still in labor reform and had not been released, why could the He family be reunited, he couldn't swallow this breath!

Qin Huairu looked at He Yuzhu with anticipation. Although she was sad in her heart, there seemed to be a glimmer of hope.

But soon, she stroked her belly and sighed softly, thinking that perhaps it would have been better if the child had never been born!

When Yi Zhonghai learned the news that He Daqing had returned home, he felt as if he had been hit hard.

What should he do? Once He Daqing comes back, his previous financial support and debts to He Daqing will be exposed.

What if He Daqing comes to collect the debt and I lose face?

Although Yi Zhonghai was nervous, as the bully of the courtyard and a friend of He Daqing, he had to go and meet him. "Old He, you're finally back." He said, as if all the problems would disappear.

Originally, the relationship between them was quite harmonious, but now, one is the leader of the courtyard, and the other is the father of a promising son. The subtle changes between the two are confusing and puzzling.

Although many neighbors were curious about what happened, they did not say much out of respect and went home one after another.

In comparison, Yi Zhonghai felt more relaxed.

He Daqing's attitude showed that he was already aware of the money problem.

However, He Daqing did not expose it in public, which meant that the conflict between him and himself had not yet completely erupted and there was still a chance to save the situation.

After all, Yi Zhonghai is still a figure of certain weight in this courtyard. Even though the He family is now prosperous, they are still under his control at home. This is the reality.

After having such an idea, Yi Zhonghai began to waver: Should he return He Daqing's money? He could explain that he was keeping it for He Yuzhu because he was afraid that he would spend money without restraint due to his young age. Although everyone understood this, he could still save face on the surface.

However, this amount of money is more than 700 yuan, which is not a small sum.

Even though he could afford it, he couldn't bear to give it up.

The He family doesn't have to worry about money right now. Even the gift money is more than 2,000 yuan. What's a few thousand yuan? The Jia family is having a hard time now, especially after Jia Dongxu got married and Qin Huairu's child came, life must have become even harder.

It would be better to use this money to subsidize the Jia family, which would help improve the relationship between the two families.

The more he thought about it, the more Yi Zhonghai felt that he was right. He Daqing was not the unreasonable person like He Yuzhu, and would not deepen his relationship with the Jia family because of this.

Well, if we don't let He Daqing get the money but help him keep it to help Jia Dongxu, I believe he will be able to understand and accept it.

People always look for reasons to support their actions, and Yi Zhonghai is just like that at this moment.

After thinking it through, he felt relieved and went home with ease.

On the other side, He Yuzhu brought He Yushui back to their courtyard. Seeing that his brother's mood had improved, he also smiled.

The two now live together, and with little contact with He Daqing, the move will not change his life or his plans to make a living delivering food.

He wondered whether he could let He Daqing take over the delivery and let him work in Tianxianglou.

Although his cooking skills may be slightly inferior to He Yuzhu's, they are still considered exquisite in the old capital, especially Tan's cuisine.

As I thought about it more, this idea seemed more reasonable.

However, the secret of his system cannot be leaked. All he needs to do is buy a flatbed truck, take out the ingredients from the system in the early morning and store them in the truck, and when He Daqing comes, he can take them and leave.

He Daqing is undoubtedly a more reliable assistant than anyone else.

At the same time, this method will not attract the attention of the residents of the courtyard.

They make profits without any risk.

After making the decision, He Yuzhu decided to buy a flatbed truck the next day.

At this moment, the system prompt sounded in my mind again.

"Ding! The system issues a mission: rescue Chen Xueru."

“Remaining mission time: two hours.”

The emergence of this task made He Yuzhu stunned.

What does this countdown mean?

Will Chen Xueru encounter a crisis within two hours?

With this thought, He Yuzhu's expression became nervous.

He was indeed a little curious about Chen Xueru.

Although he didn't have to date her, it wouldn't do him any harm if he could have a close relationship with Chen Xueru.

Now the system has issued the task again and he must complete it.

Since he had been to Chen Xueru's house before, He Yuzhu knew that she lived across an alley from him.

After telling He Yushui that he was out on business, he went to a secluded place near Chen Xueru's home and waited.

Obviously, He Yuzhu believed that the danger could not happen in his own home, but was likely to happen outside.

Chen Xueru may not necessarily be nearby, but her exact location is unknown.

The more blindly he searches, the lower his chances of finding it.

It’s better to sit back and watch the tiger change here.

As the system countdown ticked away, his inner anxiety grew.

With more than ten minutes left in the countdown, He Yuzhu was full of doubts.

Could it be that he made a wrong judgment and the dangerous place is not here?

But where will it be?

He Yuzhu understood that the system could not issue a task that could not be completed.

This means that he will find Chen Xueru, there is no doubt about it.

Could it be that Chen Xueru is really at home now?

With this thought in mind, He Yuzhu's expression became even more serious.

Time is running out and we can't delay any longer.

It seems that I have no choice but to go to Chen Xueru's house first to find out the actual situation.

At this moment, He Yuzhu accidentally saw Chen Xueru arguing fiercely with a man and walking out from the other side of the alley.

It can be seen that Chen Xueru had a look of disgust on her face, but the man kept following her.

Witnessing this, He Yuzhu immediately hid himself and watched how the situation developed further.

In his opinion, this matter was not just that simple - just being harassed by someone.

Otherwise, the system will never assign such a task!

Suddenly, he saw the man pulling Chen Xueru into a yard nearby. He Yuzhu did not dare to delay any longer and quickly followed him.

As soon as I approached, I heard Chen Xueru's angry voice.

"Zhang Derong, you can be a traitor, but I can't fall with you!"

"Give up on this idea!"

"Even if you can tolerate others stabbing you in the back, I will never get involved in this matter again!"

He Yuzhu's expression became serious when he heard this.

Is it related to enemy spies?

This is getting more and more complicated!

Looking at Zhang Derong's embarrassed face, He Yuzhu felt more determined.

However, he knew very well that many of Chen Xueru's clients were either wealthy or noble ladies.

Absorbing Chen Xueru would be of great help to him.

Because of this, he was still patient in persuading her.

"Xueru, that's a bit harsh."

"If you cooperate with outsiders, it is true that I am being accused of betraying the country."

"But I am here to serve you, how can I be a thief?"

"Besides, I'm here for your own good." He went on to say, "Although your clothing store is doing well now, do you know?"

"Next year, the country will implement a planned economy. To buy things, you not only need to pay with your own money, but also need a ration card."

“If businessmen do not cooperate with the state, it will be difficult for them to survive.

What will your store do then?"

"Are you willing to have the fruits of your hard work plundered or even destroyed?"

"As long as you cooperate, I can use my wife's power to collect internal intelligence. Not only can I get more benefits, but I can also avoid the planned economy before I return."
