In the 1950s, being able to fill one's stomach was the pursuit of most people.
For a bite, many people broke through their limits.
However, there were also people who pursued greater things. They were not only satisfied with eating their fill, but also wanted to take good care of their bodies. Under such circumstances, He Yuzhu's medicinal cuisine catered to the 'high-end market.'
After all, the 'cost' of a portion of medicinal cuisine was 50 yuan, and most people in the countryside might not even have 50 yuan a year.
Besides, He Yuzhu only wanted the cost price?
Ever since he made medicinal cuisine for Xu Damao, it was first the courtyard house, then some people in the factory. Today, He Yuzhu rode a bicycle to work, causing quite a stir. It also let more people know that he knew how to make medicinal cuisine, which made some people tempted.
For example, the factory director and deputy factory director wanted to find He Yuzhu to make some medicinal cuisine. Not only could they nourish their bodies, but they could also give it to the higher-ups. This would help them build connections. Moreover, if they had a good relationship with the higher-ups, they would have someone to protect them. Needless to say, the benefits were obvious.
Hence, He Yuzhu became a fragrant bun.
It could be said that not only could He Yuzhu make money with the herbal dishes, but he could also build a good relationship with the leaders.
Of course, he also wanted the medicinal cuisine to be effective.
After dealing with Deputy Factory Manager Li, a few more workshop directors and deputy directors came.
The leaders of the factory were friendly to He Yuzhu, so the workers had to suck up to him.
There were also some people who were jealous, such as Xu Damao, Jia Gan, and Liu Haizhong.
He Yuzhu suddenly realized that his cheap father was a little distracted. He was a little puzzled. He asked Liu Lan and found out that He Daqing had taken a fancy to a widow surnamed Bai. The widow came from Baocheng. Her brother worked in the rolling mill, and the widow came to borrow money from her brother.
It was worth mentioning that Liu Lan was still single, and she had not become the lover of Deputy Factory Manager Li. She was an apprentice, so she probably could not become a full-time employee this year. Next year, she might become a Level 10 cook, but it was only a possibility.
"The White Widow from Baocheng?" He Yuzhu frowned.
He Yuzhu had changed a lot, but He Daqing still took a fancy to the White Widow.
A widow who was protecting the city came to Beijing. He Daqing saw her and fell in love with her. This was quite a fate.
It seemed that he had to have a good talk with He Daqing.
Just as He Yuzhu was thinking, He Daqing left.
It was still too early to get off work.
He Daqing probably went to look for the White Widow.
It was tough for the White Widow to raise a few children, but who wouldn't suffer in this era? There was no need for sympathy.
In the original novel, the White Widow was not a good person. He Daqing was also stupid. He did not want to kiss his son and raised someone else's son. When he was old, he was chased out by someone else's son.
……
After work, He Yuzhu returned home but did not see He Daqing.
Qin Huairu did not see He Daqing return home and noticed that He Yuzhu did not look too good. Qin Huairu knew that something must have happened, so she asked.
He Yuzhu did not hide anything from Qin Huairu.
Qin Huiru was also very surprised when she learned that her father-in-law had taken a fancy to a widow from Baocheng.
"Then what should we do?" Qin Huairu asked.
After all, He Daqing was an elder. If he really wanted to find a woman, his son and daughter-in-law would not be able to stop him.
"When the old man comes back, I'll have a good talk with him. Don't worry about it.”He Yuzhu said lightly.
Although He Yuzhu said so, Qin Huairu could not help but worry.
He Daqing was the deputy director of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill's canteen and the second master of this courtyard house. His monthly salary was not small. If he ran away or married a woman, He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu's interests would definitely suffer. If the woman He Daqing married had a child with her, He Yuzhu's loss would be even greater.
If He Daqing followed the widow to defend the city, it would be even worse.
If He Daqing had gone to protect the city with a widow before He Yuzhu got married, Qin Huairu would have hesitated to marry He Yuzhu.
Of course, Qin Huairu had feelings for He Yuzhu now. Even if they were not married, she would not hesitate because He Daqing had left. She was worried about the loss of He Yuzhu and herself.
Qin Huairu could not be said to be scheming. Given her current identity and the situation that had happened, she could only be heartless.
Of course, He Yuzhu didn't want He Daqing to leave.
After He Daqing left, the He family lost tens of yuan and some tickets every month. He Yuzhu also lost the deputy director of the canteen and the second uncle of the quad to protect her.
Once He Daqing left, Liu Haizhong, the Third Master, would become the Second Master, and Yan Laoxi, the Fourth Master, would become the Third Master.
It could be said that once He Daqing left, He Yuzhu would suffer a great loss.
If it was like the original novel, He Daqing would run away with all the money in his family, and He Yuzhu was an apprentice in the factory's canteen. He would definitely need help to take care of his sister and pay for her education.
However, He Yuzhu had a lot of money and tickets now. He also had the system. He Daqing's departure would affect him, but he could bear it.
But…
"If He Daqing wants to leave, he must leave with nothing.”He Yuzhu thought to himself.
Now, He Daqing still had a lot of money hidden away. Even if it wasn't 2000 yuan, it wouldn't be too much. He Daqing was willing to use so much money to raise someone else's son, but He Yuzhu wouldn't.
Even if He Daqing had earned all the money he had hidden, He Yuzhu would not let him take a single cent.
If He Daqing wanted to marry the White Widow, He Yuzhu would not stop him, but he would not fork out a single cent. He Daqing would support her on his own. In addition, He Daqing had to fork out half of his monthly salary to He Yuzhu because He Yuzhu was his biological son.
If he had the ability, He Daqing would sever his father-son relationship with He Yuzhu.
For the sake of a widow, a widow with a few children, He Daqing was willing to cut ties with his own son. If He Daqing could do this, He Yuzhu would not mind letting his reputation be tarnished. He would see what he would do when he was stabbed in the back.
Rumors were terrible, and there were some things that could be done but not said.
Seeing Qin Huairu frowning, He Yuzhu told her about his plan.
Qin Huairu was very supportive of He Yuzhu's plan and even helped him come up with some ideas.
This daughter-in-law was really a good wife.
Even though Qin Huairu did not have He Yuzhu's knowledge and mindset, she was very smart and could help He Yuzhu.
After the husband and wife discussed it, they waited for He Daqing to return.
He Daqing didn't come back even when it was dark. He only came home when it was almost midnight.
When he got home, He Daqing was also shocked. His son and daughter-in-law were both awake and waiting for him.
"Father, are you with the widow who defended the city?”He Yuzhu stared at He Daqing.
He Daqing did not expect He Yuzhu to know, but since He Yuzhu knew, he did not deny it.
"Your mother has been gone for a few years. Can't I find another one?”He Daqing said.
"This is your freedom. I can't stop you, but there are some things that I have to say first.”
"Tell me." He Daqing had already decided to be on good terms with the White Widow from Baocheng, and it would be good if he could talk things out with his son.
