Although the ingredients are ordinary, with his careful preparation, every dish out of the pot is fragrant, appetizing and mouth-watering.

After finishing the meal, He Yuzhu relaxed by drinking tea from an enamel mug.

Accompanied by the constant praise and compliments from the crowd, they quietly waited for the employees to come and eat.

"Oh, today's dishes are so delicious, they make me salivate, did you change the chef?" The news spread quickly. Soon, the workers were all excited.

Those who got a taste of it gobbled it up like starving ghosts, as if they wanted to swallow all the food in the lunch box in one gulp.

In the kitchen, listening to the workers' rave reviews, He Yuzhu raised a smile: It's really amazing to have such god-level cooking skills. The workers will have something to look forward to when they work in the future.

Beside him, Ma Hua was full of admiration, gave a thumbs up and said excitedly: "Master, you are so strong."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu smiled and said, "This is just the beginning. Real cooking is not just about making a big pot of rice.

The various cuisines in our country have gone through a long history of accumulation, forming rich, diverse and unique cooking techniques and flavors.

There are countless delicious dishes that are recognized from all over the country.

In the early Qing Dynasty, Sichuan cuisine, Shandong cuisine, Huaiyang cuisine and Cantonese cuisine were considered the four major mainstream cuisines.

By the end of the Qing Dynasty, four major cuisines were added: Zhejiang cuisine, Fujian cuisine, Hunan cuisine, and Anhui cuisine. These eight cuisines are representatives of traditional cuisine that are well-known in modern times.

The small schools of cuisine that I learned, such as Tan's cuisine, also have many distinctive features.

As my apprentice, you must study hard in the future. As long as you master one tenth of my skills, you will never go hungry anywhere!"

Ma Hua felt excited and determined after hearing this. Although he couldn't see any special skills in making the big pot dish, the real skills demonstrated by the chef today were enough to impress him.

As the saying goes, if you have a skill, you will never go hungry.

"I understand, Master. I will definitely follow your lead and learn from you." Ma Hua said respectfully.

"Ah."

After chatting with Ma Hua for a while, He Yuzhu prepared for a lunch break.

At the same time, in Director Yang's office.

After finishing the meal, Director Yang was very satisfied. He turned to his secretary and asked, "Today's meal is really good. The cooking and technique are very high."

The secretary also thought that the dishes today were particularly excellent and thought that a new chef had been hired.

After learning the truth, he laughed and said, "It turns out that today's chef is our Sha Zhu... Chef He Yuzhu showed off his skills."

The secretary knew very well that what the factory director wanted to know was who was responsible for this delicious meal.

Sure enough, Director Yang smiled with satisfaction and ordered: "Master He's cooking skills are great. Go tell the canteen that leaders from other units are visiting tonight and ask Master He to cook a good meal for them."

"Okay, let's do it right away."

Soon after, we arrived at the cafeteria.

"Is Master He here?"

Secretary Chen carried chicken, meat and other high-quality ingredients into the kitchen. When he saw He Yuzhu, he immediately smiled and said, "Hello, Master He. We have an important guest in the factory today. I need you to cook and prepare some food."

"It's a small matter. Don't worry, you can go back to the factory manager and we will arrange it well." He Yuzhu agreed readily and then instructed Ma Hua to take the things.

Seeing that He Yuzhu agreed, Secretary Chen nodded with satisfaction, informed him of the meal time, and left.

He Yuzhu glanced at the ingredients in Ma Hua's hand. Although they seemed ordinary, he had already planned them well thanks to his superb cooking skills.

Within a few minutes, he had a detailed plan for the ingredients: which dishes to serve, which cuisines, and in what order.

At this time, Liu Lan walked in and said, "Master He, Master Qin is looking for you!"

"Thank you!"

After thanking Liu Lan, He Yuzhu walked out of the kitchen, curious about the purpose of Qin Huairu's visit.

We had already talked this morning, why did you come to see him again?

"You're welcome!" In the factory canteen kitchen.

This was the first time Liu Lan saw He Yuzhu expressing his gratitude so sincerely, and she felt a little uncomfortable at first.

He Yuzhu realized that there was something wrong with his attitude, but he didn't explain much.

After saying goodbye, he walked straight out of the kitchen.

And in the cafeteria hall.

Qin Huairu waited for He Yuzhu with a little nervousness.

"What's the matter, Sister Qin?"

As soon as he saw Qin Huairu, He Yuzhu smiled and asked.

Qin Huairu, who was standing opposite him, saw He Yuzhu smiling at her and thought that he had forgotten what happened this morning and felt regretful about it.

She also smiled and responded, "Silly Zhu, you are here.

I was so scared this morning, how could I say something like that? "

As she spoke, Qin Huairu gradually approached He Yuzhu, tears gathering in her eyes, looking like they would fall at any moment.

Seeing this, He Yuzhu sighed secretly in his heart and thought: Qin Huairu must have mistaken what I said this morning as a joke!

He took a step back, kept a certain distance, and then said, “Sister Qin, I take every word I say seriously and never meant it as a joke.

Now everyone in the factory is saying that we have a connection.

In fact, you should be the one who knows best whether we have a relationship.

It would have been fine in the past, but since Brother Jia passed away, you have to take care of your mother-in-law and raise three children by yourself, and all the burdens of the family fall on your shoulders.

It’s really not easy.

So over the years I have done my best to help wherever I can.

Every time I bring back leftovers, at least some of them are given to your family.

As for my salary, you have been collecting it on my behalf in the past few years.

Of the money I earned from work in the past few years, apart from giving my younger sister some living expenses, the rest was basically spent on buying alcohol.

Now I only have a little over 100 yuan in savings. I think you know where this money went."

At this point, Qin Huairu's tears rolled down her face, knowing in her heart that He Yuzhu, her long-term support, was no longer there.

However, Qin Huairu was worried that He Yuzhu would bring up the old matter, so she cried and begged, "Silly Zhu, if it weren't for your support over the past few decades, my family would have collapsed long ago.

We really can’t afford to repay you right now. We came here today because our family is really in financial difficulty. Please do us a favor and bring back some cornmeal.”

Hearing that Qin Huairu wanted to easily cover up the matter and asked him to secretly bring back the food, He Yuzhu felt that it was not worth it for his past self.

His smile disappeared, and he said seriously, "Sister Qin, the past is written off, and you don't have to pay me back. Besides, you have been helping me with housework and washing clothes at home for these years, which is also a kind of repayment.

But I still want to make it clear: I did have special feelings for you, and I didn't hide it.

If we can become husband and wife, I would be willing to help raise three children.

But now I understand that you have been hovering around me all these years.

What do you take me for?

To put it bluntly, isn't this treating me like a fool?

Now that we have made things clear, we can still be good neighbors in the future and help in any way we can.

If I really can't help, please don't blame me.

You know I'm not stupid, and I believe you're a reasonable person.

Besides, you earn 22 yuan a month, which is enough to support a family of five."

After saying this, He Yuzhu felt that he had expressed himself very clearly, but Qin Huairu still wanted to try harder.

Just as he was about to speak, He Yuzhu smiled again and continued, "Sister Qin, I have great respect for you, but some topics are better left undiscussed.

There is no point in talking too much, you should understand this principle. "

After hearing this, Qin Huairu also realized that everything was irreversible.

She asked hesitantly, "Is it really impossible?"

He Yuzhu remained silent, but this silent silence had already given the answer.

She sighed helplessly: “Okay, let’s do as you say.

My family is really in trouble, Shazhu, can you help me out of our friendship and bring back some corn flour?"

He Yuzhu shook his head and sighed sadly: "Sister Qin, I really can't help you with this matter.

Although it is just a small item, it is actually the property of the government. It is not worth it to tarnish your reputation for a little profit."

If you want leftovers, I'll check later to see if there are any. If there are none, don't worry about it.

That's all, I'm going to take a lunch break, see you later!

With these words, he waved his hand and went straight back to the kitchen.

In the cafeteria, Qin Huairu looked in the direction where He Yuzhu left, feeling strange inside.

Although she still had some attachment in her heart, she knew she couldn't push it too much.

As long as it's He Yuzhu, she has many ways to control him.

In the afternoon, He Yuzhu was busy cooking when he caught a glimpse of a little boy sneaking in with a glass bottle in his hand, his eyes fixed on the soy sauce bottle on the table.

Seeing this scene, He Yuzhu remained silent and just stared at him quietly.

He knew very well that the kid's name was Banggeng, and he came to steal soy sauce to dip in the old hen he had just stolen from his enemy Xu Damao's house.

Bang Geng also realized that he was discovered by He Yuzhu, but there was no fear on his face. Instead, he nonchalantly picked up the soy sauce bottle and poured it into his own container.

After finishing, Banggeng made a naughty face at He Yuzhu and quickly ran out.

At this time, a man's voice came from outside: "Hey, where did this kid come from?" Then, a man opened the curtain and walked in, and said to He Yuzhu proudly: "Silly Zhu, do you know who invited me to dinner today? Where is the factory director!"

This person is Xu Damao.

His usual frivolous face was telling of his "glory" today.

He Yuzhu glanced at Xu Damao, not wanting to argue with him, so he smiled and replied, "Very good, remember to eat more, today's meals are all cooked by me personally, you are lucky!"

After hearing this, Xu Damao was stunned for a moment and looked at He Yuzhu in disbelief. He never expected that his mortal enemy did not argue with him today.

However, just because He Yuzhu ignored him didn't mean Xu Damao could miss this opportunity.

Xu Damao immediately raised his head and laughed a few times, mockingly saying, "Humph, Silly Zhu, I'm not saying this, but you are destined to be someone's helper in this life.

You should have been a movie projectionist earlier, why do you have to be exposed to the fumes here every day?"
