Yi Zhonghai's Siheyuan

Sha Zhu got the note and handed it to Ma Hua, asking him to go to the kitchen to get the ingredients. Ma Hua was very respectful to his master Sha Zhu.

After Ma Hua got the ingredients, Sha Zhu started to chop an old hen on the chopping board. While chopping the chicken, Sha Zhu told Ma Hua to wash the hazel mushrooms in water and then soak them in hot water.

On the other side, Banggeng skipped classes and ran back from school today. He looked around and saw that the door of Xu Damao's house in the backyard was closed. After looking around and seeing that there was no one there, Banggeng put Xu Damao outside, opened the chicken coop, and took out an old hen from it. He said that this chicken was brought by Xu Damao from his mother-in-law's house to lay eggs for his own children to eat.

Banggeng grabbed the chicken's neck and strangled it to death. After strangling the chicken to death, he stuffed the chicken into his clothes and ran out of the courtyard. Xiaodang Huaihua, who was outside helping Banggen to keep watch, saw Banggeng running out, and the two little ones followed Banggeng out as well.

Banggeng ran to the cement pipe near the steel mill and skillfully plucked the chicken feathers. Then he started a fire and started to cook beggar's chicken. Xiaodang, who was standing next to him, remembered that his brother said that beggar's chicken needed soy sauce, so he said, "Brother, there is no soy sauce here! How can we cook beggar's chicken?"

Bang Geng thought for a while and said, "I have a solution. Wait for me here!" Then he ran towards the steel mill. Xiao Dang and Huai Hua were waiting in the cement pipe.

Sha Zhu continued to cook vermicelli stewed with meat. Just when Sha Zhu's spatula took off, Bang Geng, who was in a warehouse of the steel rolling mill, just came out of the dog hole outside the yard. He was looking around and saw that there was no one outside the warehouse. Bang Geng quietly approached the kitchen. He didn't know which kitchen Qin Huairu worked in, so he could only walk around aimlessly.

"Fortunately, I am smart," Bang Geng thought, and then he saw Sha Zhu cooking. He calmly picked up the glass bottle behind Sha Zhu and started pouring soy sauce.

After Sha Zhu finished cooking the dishes, he asked Ma Hua to come and serve the dishes. Sha Zhu turned around and saw Bang Geng stealing soy sauce from a bottle in the kitchen, so he said, "Good boy! Stealing the public soy sauce, huh?"

Banggeng ran away as soon as he heard it. Shazhu threw a rolling pin which accidentally hit Xu Damao who came over. Xu Damao came to see Shazhu and show off a little.

Xu Damao was hit by the rolling pin and fell to the ground. After he stood up, Xu Damao said, "Silly Zhu, what the hell are you doing?"

Sha Zhu: "Why are you joining in the fun when I beat up Widow Qin's son? You can go through the front door instead of the back door."

Before, Xu Damao might not believe Sha Zhu's words and think that Sha Zhu hit him on purpose. However, after these years, the relationship between Xu Damao and Sha Zhu did not continue to be bad, and Xu Damao was not dissatisfied with Sha Zhu's foul mouth.

Xu Damao: "No, you mean Widow Qin's son! He came to the kitchen? What is he doing in the kitchen?" Xu Damao had a bad feeling in his heart.

Sha Zhu: "Well, this kid stole soy sauce! What else can he do?"

Xu Damao didn't tell Shazhu about Banggeng anymore, so he said, "See, the factory director is treating me to a meal today!"

Sha Zhu: "I know. I'm cooking right now. I'll take half of the chicken back and give a chicken leg to your son so he can taste Uncle He's cooking skills!" Sha Zhu said proudly.

Xu Damao: "Hey, then I'll let my son wait..."

After saying that, Xu Damao went back to the canteen in a haughty manner. When Xu Damao came back, he saw Yi Zhonghai had also arrived, so he hurriedly said, "Uncle Yi, why are you here too?" But then he thought that Yi Zhonghai was now the head of the engineering department, so naturally he could ask Director Li to invite him.

Yi Zhonghai: "Da Mao, Director Li invited me to have dinner with him."

Xu Damao was very tactful and filled the glasses for Li Huaide, Yi Zhonghai and other leaders. At this time, Ma Hua also brought the dishes.

Li Huaide took a sip of wine and said, "Today let's just get together and not talk about work, just drink." Although he said that, everyone present was smart and understood what Li Huaide wanted to discuss today.

After a glass of wine, Li Huaide arranged for everyone to eat and chat while eating.

Sha Zhu packed up his things and carried two lunch boxes back. When he passed by a cement tank, he smelled a fragrance with his chef's sense of smell. Sha Zhu followed the smell and found Bang Geng and his siblings who were eating chicken.

Silly Zhu: "Hey, where did you guys get the chicken?"

Xiao Dang: "Uncle He, my brother gave it to us."

Bang Geng glared at Xiao Dang and said, "Silly Zhu, where the chicken comes from is none of your business?"

When Shazhu saw Banggeng taking his sister to eat, he remembered the scene when he used to take his sister to eat, so he said to Banggeng, "Not bad, you don't eat alone." He didn't care what Banggeng said.

After saying that, Sha Zhu continued walking towards the courtyard with the lunch box. When he returned to the yard, he saw his three children playing in the yard, so he gave the lunch box to the three children and carried them back home.

Seeing how good Sha Zhu was to her children, Qin Huairu couldn't help but regret that if she had been with Sha Zhu earlier, her own children would have been like this too. There was no treat in the cafeteria today, so all they brought back were cabbages. When Jia Zhang saw the lunch boxes at home, she started cursing. Qin Huairu could only take her clothes to wash in the yard to avoid Jia Zhang's scolding.

Sha Zhu watched his son He Xiao open his lunch box and prepare to eat. Sha Zhu said, "He Xiao, take out a bowl first and give one of the chicken legs to Xuan Duoduo in the backyard later."

Yang Yuhuan saw that Sha Zhu had brought a very rich lunch box, so she said, "Brother Zhu, today's lunch box is quite rich."

Sha Zhu: "Wife, you guys eat first and then ask He Xiao to send the chicken legs to Xu Damao's house in the backyard."

Yang Yuhuan: "Wang Xiaojuan and her mother have returned to her parents' home with their children. If she is not at home, she will probably be back later."

Sha Zhu nodded and went to the kitchen to cook dinner.

After Qin Huairu washed clothes outside in the yard for a while, she didn't see her children come back, so she anxiously called Banggeng and Xiaodang's names in the yard.

Just when Qin Huairu was looking for her children, Wang Xiaojuan came back to the yard with several children and Wang's mother.

On the other side, Yi Zhonghai and his companions had almost finished eating and drinking. Li Huaide had called them together for dinner today just to win them over. Yi Zhonghai laughed it off several times and Li Huaide had no choice.

Xu Damao and Yi Zhonghai rode their bikes back to the yard, and after arriving at the courtyard, they both went home.

When Xu Damao saw his wife come back, he hurriedly started cooking. He wanted to see if the chickens in the coop had laid eggs today. As a result, he found that one chicken was missing from the coop.

Xu Damao shouted loudly, "Xiaojuan, come out and see, one of our chickens is missing!"

Wang Xiaojuan looked at it and confirmed it, so she said that she had been at her mother's house all day and had not come back!

When Xu Damao saw that his chicken was lost, he was so worried that he went to the street office to find the clerk.
