Siheyuan: I am reborn as a good person He Yuzhu

Chapter 206 The atmosphere is extremely warm

Xu Huizhen continued, "We can consider setting up a separate factory for dim sum production."

"Yes, this is a good idea. Once the dim sum brand registration is completed, we will take action."

"That's settled then!" The two discussed the follow-up matters in detail and then returned to the tavern.

The tavern was full of guests at the time, and although they provided five jars of medicinal wine every day, it was still far from meeting the demand.

"Manager, there are some new bars nearby, but none of them can compare to yours." "This has to be our century-old shop!"

He Yuzhu was secretly proud of himself after hearing these words, but on the surface he remained calm.

No matter how many people praise him, he always sticks to his original heart and does things in a low-key and moderate manner.

At night, inside the courtyard.

"Qin Huairu, relying on Yi Zhonghai is not a long-term solution."

Jia Zhang found that the family's income was not as good as before recently, and she couldn't help feeling anxious.

"I know that, but what else can we do now besides relying on Yi Zhonghai?" "Why don't you find a job too."

Jia Zhang sighed.

"What? Mom, you are healthier than me, why don't you find a job for yourself?" Qin Huairu turned to Jia Zhang and asked angrily.

"I...my legs and feet are not strong enough and I can't do heavy work." Jia Zhang defended herself.

Qin Huairu curled her lips and said, "Isn't this easy? For example, you can make some money by pasting paper boxes or mending shoe soles every day!" She has long been dissatisfied with Jia Zhang's attitude towards life. Other mothers-in-law are already in their sixties and are still doing temporary work to help their families increase their income, but her mother just stays at home and eats all day doing nothing.

"How could I possibly do this!" Jia Zhang retorted.

After the two of them were in a stalemate for a while, Jia Zhang suddenly came up with an idea.

"I have a quick way to make money." Hearing this, Qin Huairu immediately became interested.

"What method?"

"Is it okay?" Qin Huairu questioned.

"What's wrong with that? Just wait patiently. It's a sure win." "Okay, let's give it a try!" Since there is no harm, Qin Huairu is of course willing to agree.

That night, Qin Huairu found Yi Zhonghai.

"Brother Yi, do you know why there has been no news of my pregnancy for such a long time?" Qin Huairu said as she sat on the edge of the bed, looking a little disappointed.

"What's going on? Is there something wrong with your stomach?"

Yi Zhonghai asked with a frown, he thought the question was a bit unbelievable.

"The doctor said I was malnourished."

Qin Huairu gently touched her belly and explained to Yi Zhonghai.

After hearing this, Yi Zhonghai couldn't help laughing: "Are you still lacking in nutrition? I've bought a lot of meat for you this year!"

In order to have a boy, even though he ate poorly himself, he never reduced the supply for Qin Huairu.

"What the doctor said was that I needed to take some high-end supplements."

"In this case, give me 30 yuan a month and I will buy some nutritional supplements." Seeing that Yi Zhonghai seemed confused, Qin Huairu stated her conditions directly.

"What? You want me to give you 30 yuan?" Yi Zhonghai opened his eyes wide and his face turned red.

30 yuan is a lot of money.

"What else? Don't you want to have children?"

Qin Huairu responded coldly, her tone was cold and a little annoyed.

"Ah, I..." Yi Zhonghai didn't know how to answer.

237 Yi Zhonghai thought about it for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and agreed.

"Okay, okay! I understand. Wait a moment, I'll get the money for you now."

"Remember, you must pay it all at once!" Qin Huairu instructed again and again, then turned around and left.

As her back disappeared, Yi Zhonghai's face immediately became dejected.

"Oh! These days are getting harder and harder!"

He sighed, then went into the house, rummaged around and took out a dirty canvas bag, from which he carefully took out twenty yuan.

It was an old purse made of linen and covered in dirt.

But to Yi Zhonghai, this torn bag is as precious as his life.

Yi Zhonghai's hands trembled slightly as he slowly opened his pocket and took out twenty yuan.

He looked around to make sure there was no one around before quietly putting the money into his trouser pocket.

"Fortunately, I have these savings, otherwise my son's life would be in danger!" He patted his chest lightly and breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai suddenly caught a glimpse of a face passing by the window glass. He quickly stuffed the cloth bag deep into the cabinet and walked quickly to the door.

I happened to run into He Yuzhu who had closed the door.

"He Yuzhu, why are you staring at me secretly?"

Yi Zhonghai felt uneasy, so he quickly blocked the door and asked in a low voice.

He Yuzhu snorted, "Yi Zhonghai, do you have a fever? Who would peek at you!" After that, he pushed open the door and walked straight into the house.

"Don't leave yet! You have to tell me clearly whether you did it on purpose or not?" "You are crazy!"

He Yuzhu cursed and then slammed the door shut.

The next day, when Yi Zhonghai handed Qin Huairu thirty yuan, he specifically told her, "You must spend it frugally, and tell me before buying anything."

Yi Zhonghai was afraid that Qin Huairu would spend money lavishly and that the money would be squandered soon.

After receiving the money, Qin Huairu was secretly happy.

"Old Yi, don't worry, I guarantee that our family will be prosperous next year." Qin Huairu said with a smile.

"Really? If you can give birth to a son for me, all the money you earn in the future will be yours." After saying this, Yi Zhonghai left.

For him, such an arrangement was already commonplace; since the money was in his hands and he would spend it anyway, he might as well be generous, at least to gain some peace of mind.

With the money, Qin Huairu returned to her room satisfied and gave Jia Zhang five yuan.

And in another family—the He family.

He Yuzhu and Xu Huizhen went out together after finishing their preparations.

"Did you see clearly? Yi Zhonghai did give the money to Qin Huairu?"

On the way, Xu Huizhen asked He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu nodded in affirmation and said, "I saw it, but I find it strange that Yi Zhonghai would be so obedient to her."

"Hmph, Qin Huairu is a very smart woman. Her methods are much more advanced than I thought!" Xu Huizhen replied with a smile on her face.

While chatting, the two walked into an alley leading to a small market.

When they arrived at the fish market stall, Xu Huizhen suggested, "Let's buy a carp and take it back!"

Seeing that there was business to be done, the fishmonger immediately stepped forward and said, "This is the freshest carp, just slaughtered!"

"Then help me pick one." Xu Huizhen responded indifferently.

Upon hearing this, the fishmonger's face immediately lit up with a smile, "Okay, please wait a moment."

When he was trying to catch the fish with his left hand, his right hand accidentally slipped and the fish fell to the ground.

He Yuzhu squatted down, picked up the fish, and weighed it with his hand.

"Dude, this fish doesn't look freshly killed!"

The fish felt heavy and its scales were no longer shiny, so it was obvious that it had been dead for a long time.

"this..."

The fishmonger smiled awkwardly, apparently forgetting to explain his mistake just now.

"To be honest, sir, I just finished processing this carp last night."

"We just pulled it out of the water this morning. I was planning to send it to the market in the city, but they didn't want it." The fishmonger asked in a low voice, avoiding eye contact with He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the carp in his hand again.

"Really? It seems to be true."

He tried the texture of the carp a few more times.

As the words fell, the fishmonger's face became more panicked.

You know, a quality management team has just been formed in the market to strictly crack down on bad behaviors such as selling inferior products as good ones and ** ** customers.

If the fish is found to be problematic, the fishmonger will be in big trouble.

"Boss, I'm going to expose you."

He Yuzhu suddenly raised his head, stared at the fishmonger and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the boss panicked and screamed.

"Ah? Young man, I really didn't mean it. How about this, I'll give you the best one for free!"

The boss' forehead was covered with cold sweat and he kept apologizing.

"no need."

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he pulled Xu Huizhen, who was standing dazed beside him, and walked straight out.

The fishmonger breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

"This guy is really amazing. He saw through it at a glance!" The fishmonger muttered in a low voice, and then continued to sell his fish.

He Yuzhu and Xu Huizhen left the market and returned to the tavern.

Today he plans to cook himself to reward the hard-working tavern staff.

Because business was so booming, everyone was so busy that they even skipped their days off.

When the employees saw He Yuzhu coming in with the dishes, they immediately came forward to help.

"Brother He, Sister Huizhen, what are these?" the employees asked in confusion.

"Your brother He is going to cook a delicious meal for everyone today." Xu Huizhen replied with a smile on her face.

"Really? That's great! We are blessed today!"

Hearing this, all the employees' eyes lit up and they looked extremely excited.

One of the larger employees in particular had already started rubbing his hands, eager to taste it.

Soon, the sound of pots and pans could be heard in the kitchen.

All the employees held back their saliva, knowing that they were in for a treat today.

At noon, everyone sat together and tasted the cold beef carefully prepared by He Yuzhu.

"It's delicious, Brother He, can I have some more?"

The round-faced employee spoke with relish, with sauce hanging from the corners of his mouth.

"Eat slowly, there are still many dishes to come."

Xu Huizhen answered softly.

"Hey, thank you Sister Huizhen." The fat employee smiled naively.

Everyone ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was extremely lively.

"Brother He, can you also teach us how to cook?"

"Yes, let us learn something too." Everyone pleaded.

He Yuzhu waved his hand, "How can that be possible? What if after I teach you, you don't want to work here anymore?" "This is my ancestral secret recipe! I will never pass it on to anyone else!"

He sternly refused anyone who wished to learn how to cook.

Helplessly, everyone had to accept this reality.

After lunch, He Yuzhu helped Xu Huizhen clean up the mess, washed the dishes, and hung them out to dry in the courtyard.

Xu Huizhen was busy cleaning and doing chores.
