The white jade porcelain cup was still steaming, and the boiling water that had been poured into it earlier had turned warm.
The kitchen was filled with the aroma of food mixed with the strong smell of firewood.
He Yuzhu sat on the chair and took a sip from the cup.
Not bad, the temperature was just right.
"Master, why don't you come and take a look?"
Ma Hua said nervously.
Today, there was a dish called chicken mushroom stew. He Yuzhu didn't think it was a big dish.
However, in this day and age, meat was basically a big dish. After all, this was 1961, an era of extreme shortage of supplies.
He took a break from his busy work and handed the seasoning to Ma Hua to look after the pot when it was almost ready.
Ma Huachu was extremely nervous when he started serving such a big dish, afraid that he would mess it up.
"It's okay. You can do whatever you want. It's almost done. You just have to take a look at the fire.”
He Yuzhu's words reassured Ma Hua. He turned around and focused on the fire.
He placed the porcelain cup on the table and leaned back in his chair. He closed his eyes and waited for work to end.
He said that he was resting with his eyes closed, but he was actually checking the check-in system.
By signing in at the place designated by the system, one could obtain the skill.
Over the past month, He Yuzhu had gone to a few places and received sign-in rewards.
[Chef: LV5]
A chef of this level could already master the eight major cuisines and had some experience. In his previous life, he would be a famous private chef.
Apart from that, the sign-in also brought He Yuzhu some other rewards.
[Literature: LV5]
He had dabbled in almost all the famous literary works at home and abroad, and he had also made some achievements in poetry.
[Sewing: LV5]
Western Europe's tailor skills were outstanding.
[Repair: LV5]
He was skilled in using a large amount of mechanical knowledge.
[Drawing: LV5]
It was an all-rounded skill that combined the East and West.
Each of these skills was very useful. However, the places where the system checked in were a little interesting.
He Yuzhu felt a headache coming on.
After all, there were strange places like the pigsty and the vegetable market.
Was it going to be this exciting every time he signed in?
He Yuzhu thought to himself.
Ma Hua glanced at his master.
Ever since a month ago, he felt that his master was different.
He couldn't tell exactly what was different, but he had become more patient and wouldn't get angry over a small matter.
Moreover, his culinary skills had also become even more impressive.
"Is the chicken mushroom stew ready?"
Urging sounds came from outside the kitchen.
Ma Hua jolted back to his senses. He lifted the lid of the pot, and the aroma immediately filled the entire kitchen.
The smell of the chicken stewed with firewood and He Yuzhu's hand was so strong that Ma Hua couldn't help but smell it.
He scooped out the chicken, cut it into several pieces, and placed it into the soup pot that was boiling over a small fire at the side. He shouted,"Chicken mushroom stew, here it comes."
After Ma Hua left the kitchen, He Yuzhu opened her eyes.
The chicken mushroom stew just now sounded familiar to him.
Just as Ma Hua stepped out, a small person came in from outside the curtain. He lowered his head and bent over, looking like a thief.
He Yuzhu recalled this scene.
Wasn't this the opening scene of his courtyard house?
The stick was secretly stealing soy sauce from the government.
At this moment, the stick had already picked up the soy sauce bottle and secretly poured soy sauce into it.
However, He Yuzhu did not stop him.
He closed his eyes again and pretended not to hear anything.
The stick had probably stolen Xu Damao's chicken by now. Perhaps it was already roasted.
Just a little soy sauce was up to him.
After stealing the chicken, he sneakily planned to slip away. He was still happy in his heart.
He was shocked when he saw He Yuzhu leaning against the wall.
In the end, even after he had stolen all the soy sauce, He Yuzhu still did not react.
"Silly Zhu."
The thug snickered and muttered in a low voice.
Usually, there were people who called him Silly Pillar, but the meaning of these two Silly Pillars was different.
When He Yuzhu heard that, he lifted his eyelids and smiled.
Thief Sun, there will be a time for you to cry.
He stood up, packed his things, and prepared to leave.
The curtain was lifted and He Damao walked in with a slightly smug look.
"Silly Zhu, look at what happened today." Xu Damao patted his clothes and stood still.
Xu Damao had just received a request from the factory manager today to have a drink or two.
In reality, she wanted him to watch some movies at night, so she gave him some benefits now.
Xu Damao also knew this in his heart, but in his opinion, this was because the factory manager thought highly of him!
He and He Yuzhu lived in the same courtyard. They were already enemies on a narrow road.
At this moment, he was very happy to show off in front of He Yuzhu.
He Yuzhu smiled and walked past him sympathetically. He even patted Xu Damao's shoulder.
Xu Damao was baffled by this.
Ever since a month ago, when he usually showed off in front of He Yuzhu, He Yuzhu would not have any reaction.
This made Xu Damao feel uncomfortable. It was as if his heart had been scratched by a cat, and his food was tasteless.
"My condolences." Just as they were about to leave, He Yuzhu finally spoke.
This sentence was not for Xu Damao.
It was his chicken.
If nothing unexpected happened, the chicken would have probably entered the stomachs of the children by now.
"What do you mean by 'grief'? It's ridiculous. I went to drink with the director.”Xu Damao was confused. He patted his clothes and walked away arrogantly.
To be able to drink with the factory director, in his opinion, the situation might not be as big as a chef.
He Yuzhu went out. Instead of going home, she walked to the other side.
On the way, when they met someone they were familiar with, they would ask,"Silly Zhu, why didn't you go back today?”
He Yuzhu replied with a smile,"There's a happy occasion at home. I'm happy. I'll buy a chicken to liven things up."”
It might not be a big deal, but he had to buy the chicken.
Not only did he have to buy it, but he also had to have an receipt!
As for the use of the receipt…
Naturally, it had other uses.
