When Zhou Feng saw He Yushui, he realized that this girl had already grown into a slender and elegant woman. Although she was still very young, he could already tell that she was a beauty.
"Brother Xiao Yi, why didn't you tell me that you were coming? If it weren't for the school holidays today, I wouldn't have known that you were here.”
Although He Yushui was a little shy, she still went forward and hugged Zhou Feng's arm enthusiastically.
"I came to Beijing to work this time. I won't be leaving in the future.”
Zhou Feng patted He Yushui's head dotingly and pulled his arm out of the water.
Zhou Feng pressed He Yushui down on the chair and reached into his pocket. He took out some candy from his interspace and handed it to He Yushui.
"Here, let me treat you to some candy. I remember that you loved candy when you were young.”
"Thank you, Brother Yi, but I don't like candy anymore. I'm not a child anymore.”
He Yushui took the candy from Zhou Feng's hand and said shyly.
"Hahaha, you will always be a child in my eyes. Have some candy first. I'll get you some water.”
Zhou Feng poured a glass of water for He Yushui and asked about her condition.
He Yushui was already 14 years old this year. She was currently in middle school and would be attending high school next year. However, He Yushui was not very satisfied with her academic results. She was a little worried that she would not be able to get into high school.
Zhou Feng comforted He Yushui and promised that if He Yushui had any questions about her studies, she could ask him.
After all, Zhou Feng had graduated from university. It was easy for him to be a junior high school student.
"By the way, do you know where your brother has been these past two days?”
After chatting with He Yushui for a while, he casually asked about the whereabouts of the second vendor. After this guy took a leave of absence from the factory, he did not even return home. No one knew where he went.
"I don't know either. I only found out that my brother actually went out when I came back today. I don't know where he went either."
There was a little grievance in He Yushui's tone. In the past, every time she went home, the second vendor would cook delicious food for her. This time, he was not home.
Looking at He Yushui's expression, Zhou Feng smiled knowingly. It seemed like he was hungry. Thinking about it, it was almost noon. Wasn't he hungry?
"Are you hungry? Let's go, I'll take you to a restaurant today."
Zhou Feng picked up his coat and put it on, then called He Yushui out.
"Brother Xiao Yi, we can just cook at home. I'll go buy some ingredients and cook for you. It's so expensive to eat at a restaurant.”
He Yushui pulled Zhou Feng along. She felt a little distressed about the money. In this era, it was already good enough to have enough to eat. Those who ate in restaurants were all officials. Ordinary people would not waste that money at all.
"That's enough. Your brother is now considered a cadre. He can still afford to treat you to a restaurant. Although he can't bring you big fish and meat every day, it's not a problem for him to treat you to a big meal every month."
Zhou Feng knew that He Yushui was worried about money. She had never had a good life since she was young. It had always been the second peddler who brought her up.
In the first few years, the second peddler had just started working, and her salary was not high. It was already good enough that she did not starve. It was only in the past two years that the second peddler relied on his own skills to make a living in the factory. He could bring back food from the canteen, and his life was a little better.
However, ever since Qin Huiru and her family moved into the courtyard, the second peddler had become a bootlicker. He was always helping Qin Huiru and her family, causing their lives to become tight again.
"Alright, stop thinking about it. Let's go. I'll bring you to eat Quanjude's roast duck today.”
Since he had come to the capital, it would be incomplete if he did not eat Quanjude. It just so happened that the second vendor was not at home today, and no one was cooking for him. He would go and try the taste of roast duck.
He Yushui couldn't win against Zhou Feng, so she could only follow him out. Zhou Feng went to push the bicycle and waited for He Yushui at the entrance of the courtyard.
After He Yushui closed the door, he walked to Zhou Feng's car and looked at the brand new bicycle. He said with envy,
"This car is really beautiful. Brother Xiao Yi, did you buy this new car?”
"I bought it yesterday. It's still a little far from the rolling mill, so I bought one as a means of transportation. Come, get in the car."
As he spoke, Zhou Feng got into the car and helped He Yushui get in.
After He Yushui sat down, Zhou Feng got on his bike and prepared to set off. At this moment, Qin Huairu returned from outside. Seeing that the two of them were about to leave, he asked.
"Rainwater, where are you going?"
"Sister Qin, my cousin wants to take me to Quanjude to eat roast duck. I've never eaten roast duck in my life.”
He Yushui replied proudly. In this era, people didn't even have enough to eat. It was already considered a luxury to go to a restaurant. To be able to eat roast duck was unimaginable for ordinary people.
When Qin Huiru heard that Zhou Feng was going to stay with He Yushui to eat roast duck, she could not help but look Zhou Feng up and down with her peach blossom eyes. She said enviously,
"Really? Your cousin is really good to you. When he comes back, you must tell me what this Quanjude Roast Duck tastes like.”
"Sister Qin, what are you saying? I'll definitely bring some back for you to try. Then Sister Qin, you can go ahead with your work. We'll be leaving first.”
With a smile on his face, He Yushui urged Zhou Feng to ride his bike faster.
"Alright, you guys go quickly. Be careful on the road.”
Qin Huairu smiled and waved her hand. She stood at the entrance of the courtyard and watched the two of them leave. Her eyes were filled with envy.
On the way to Quanjude, Zhou Feng asked He Yushui,
"Yushui, who is this Qin Huairu? He seems to be quite familiar with you and Brother Zhu Zi.”
Zhou Feng pretended to ask as if nothing had happened. In reality, he was trying to find out more about Qin Huairu and see what kind of position she held in the siblings 'hearts.
When the Siheyuan plot started, He Yushui's attitude towards Qin Huiru seemed to suggest that they had a good relationship. At that time, He Yushui still did not know Qin Huiru's true colors.
"Hai, it's nothing. She's just a big sister who lives in the same courtyard. This Sister Qin is quite a good person and often helps us wash clothes. She was also a warm-hearted person in the courtyard. She would help anyone who was in trouble.
It was just that her life was a little bitter. She married a good-for-nothing husband. The family relied on that little salary and often needed the people in the courtyard to help her.”
He Yushui answered very casually. Although it was obvious from his tone that He Yushui had a good impression of Qin Huiru, their relationship was not that close.
Zhou Feng was relieved after hearing He Yushui's words. If He Yushui was also defeated by Qin Huiru at this time, then his subsequent arrangements would be a little inappropriate.
The two of them came to Quanjude. Although Quanjude was very famous now, it was not as famous as it was in the future.
After all, Quanjude was not the only restaurant that could cook Beijing Roast Duck well. Moreover, their roast duck was not the best.
The reason why Quanjude was so famous in the future was the result of marketing in the future. The current Quanjude was at most a little famous.
