It was almost noon.
There were only a few tables of customers in the hotpot restaurant.
During this period, eating was a problem for many people. No one was willing to spend money to eat hotpot.
"Isn't this place too expensive?"
Yu Haitang was a little hesitant. This hotpot meal cost a few yuan, which was equivalent to her salary for several days.
"This restaurant tastes good. You can try it.”
As He Yushui spoke, she walked towards the hotpot restaurant.
She had long wanted to try something fresh in this shop, but she was short of money.
With He Yuchen around today, she had nothing to worry about.
Although Yu Haitang was hesitant, she still followed He Yushui in.
In this era, there was very little meat in the hotpot. The main dish was mutton.
Therefore, in the Imperial Capital, hotpot was always said to be mutton.
A copper pot of charcoal, paired with a delicious mutton soup, was the most comfortable in a world that was both warm and cold.
He Yu Chen found a corner seat and sat down.
The waiter came up and first asked about the food tickets.
Eating in a restaurant at this time was not just about spending money. Without food stamps, money was useless.
Since He Yu Chen was the one treating, he would naturally be the one to take the food stamps and money.
Two catties of food stamps plus five yuan was the limit for the three of them.
"Hehe, Xiao Chen, it's really all thanks to you. I've wanted to come a long time ago.”
He Yushui said happily.
Yu Haitang, who was beside her, was a little embarrassed and whispered,"Thank you."
He Yushui looked at her bashful expression and gave her a gentle push.
"Haitang, you don't have to be so polite. We're rich today, hehe. Let's eat as much as we can.”
Although He Yushui said so, even if it was a restaurant, everyone had a quota.
Unless you added more food stamps, the people in the shop would not give you more food.
Soon, the sliced mutton was served, along with a few plates of hot dishes and a few steamed buns.
"Come, come, come. Don't stand on ceremony."
He Yushui was the most impolite. She picked up the mutton with her chopsticks and put it into the pot.
"You're welcome."
He Yuchen knew that Yu Haitang was reserved.
Yu Haitang let out a sigh of relief as she watched He Yushui and He Yuchen eat by themselves.
Actually, she was really greedy.
In this era, it was already extremely difficult to eat meat all year round.
Not to mention such a sumptuous meal of mutton hotpot.
"Hmm?"
As he was eating, He Yu Chen's gaze was suddenly attracted by two people who came in through the door.
One of them was Xu Damao, and beside him was a woman in her twenties.
"What's wrong?"
He Yushui noticed He Yuchen's gaze and looked over as well.
In the next second, He Yushui's expression changed.
"Isn't that woman Qin Jingru?”
He Yuchen stood Qin Jingru up yesterday, so He Yuyu comforted her for a while.
She didn't expect that she would come out for dinner with Xu Damao after only one night.
This Xu Damao was famous for being stingy. He actually treated a woman to a meal. He definitely had bad intentions.
He Yushui was so angry that she wanted to stand up but was pressed down by He Yuchen.
"Sis, this is her business. What's there to be anxious about?”
"No, this Qin Jingru was crying yesterday, saying that she was wronged. In the blink of an eye, she hooked up with Xu Damao.”
He Yushui was furious. If it wasn't for He Yuchen, she would have gone to Xu Damao to settle the score.
He Yuchen and the others sat in the corner of the restaurant. Xu Damao had also specially chosen this seat.
They sat down one seat away from each other.
Because he was facing away from them, Xu Damao did not notice He Yuchen and He Yushui at all.
Qin Jingru could see He Yuchen, but she did not know him at all. She just treated him as a stranger.
The two of them sat down.
Xu Damao introduced with a smile.
"It's rare to come to this place. It would be a waste if you didn't come here this time. The mutton here is delicious.”
"Big Brother Xu, isn't this a little inappropriate?”
Qin Jingru looked around, afraid that she would meet someone familiar.
Xu Damao disagreed.
"You don't have to worry. In our courtyard, who is as capable as you, Xu Damao, to invite you to have a mutton hotpot.”
When He Yushui heard this, she burst out laughing.
This Xu Damao was really shameless.
He Yushui laughed and shook her head.
Haitang was confused and did not understand.
"But if my sister finds out, she'll definitely scold me.”
Qin Jingru was worried.
Xu Damao quickly comforted her.
"Don't worry, I know your sister. As long as you're happy, your sister will definitely agree.”
"But…"
Qin Jingru wanted to say something but hesitated. She looked around to make sure that no one was eavesdropping and whispered.
"But you're already married. What about your wife?”
"Don't worry. That Lou Xiao'e and I have been married for so many years, but she hasn't even given birth to an egg for me. I've wanted to divorce her for a long time.”
He Yuchen and the others heard Xu Damao's words clearly.
He Yuchen had already expected this plot, but He Yushui and Yu Haitang were shocked when they heard it.
"How can there be such an irresponsible man!”
Yu Haitang said angrily.
He Yushui couldn't take it anymore. She wanted to stand up and scold Xu Damao.
However, He Yuchen held her down without batting an eyelid.
"Don't be anxious. What's the use of rushing out now?”
He Yuchen said.
This matter had nothing to do with him.
"I'm complaining for Lou Xiao'e. How can Xu Damao be like this?”
They spoke softly, so Xu Damao and Qin Jingru did not hear them.
The two of them were still enjoying the mutton hotpot.
Seeing this scene, He Yushui became even angrier.
He Yu Chen laughed.
"Think about it, you were supposed to matchmake Qin Jingru and me yesterday.”
He Yushui's face turned red.
She was glad that He Yuchen had stood Qin Jingru up yesterday. Otherwise, her family would have been humiliated.
Yu Haitang looked at He Yuchen in a daze.
She gently bit her chopsticks, deep in thought.
He Yuchen noticed her absent-mindedness and asked with a smile.
"What's wrong with you?"
Yu Haitang shook her head.
"No, nothing. I just think you're very lucky.”
"What kind of luck is this? This matter will be troublesome in the future.”
He Yuchen remembered that not long after, Xu Damao asked Second Uncle to hold a meeting to discuss the divorce.
Later on, the Lou family was wiped out by Xu Damao.
If it wasn't for the Deaf Old Lady's protection, Lou Xiao'e wouldn't have had a good time.
"No, we can't let this matter go just like that!”
He Yushui still couldn't take it lying down.
