Ever since Xu Damao and Qin Huiru got married, He Yuzhu felt that life had changed. Although the courtyard house was still as lively as before, and the neighbors would quarrel over trivial matters, he always felt much more relaxed. It was as if the shackles on him had suddenly lessened.
He Yuzhu had been racking his brains over this for a few days. One day, he bumped into Qin Huairu in the courtyard. After she left with a smile, He Yuzhu suddenly understood. It turned out that he had completely changed He Yuzhu's life. Not only had he gotten married early and was about to have a child, but he had also sent Qin Huairu, the woman who was the most dangerous to him, into Xu Damao's arms. He finally did not have to worry about being schemed against by Qin Huairu one day. He pulled him into the deep pit of the Jia family.
After leaving the Jia family, He Yuzhu would no longer have a tragic life like in the original drama. From now on, the biggest trouble he had in the Siheyuan would be gone. At most, Xu Damao, Qin Huairu, and a few other villains would try to plot against him in the future. However, with his identity as a third-generation poor farmer, he was confident that he could deal with those schemes. As long as his family did not have any problems, he had nothing to fear.
Time passed just like that. The weather was getting colder and colder. Occasionally, the rolling mill would have a reception. Basically, it was the materials that Deputy Factory Manager Li had obtained. He invited the factory leaders that he was familiar with. Every time, He Yuzhu would secretly deduct a little and take it home. After all, he did not have any pressure to cheat Deputy Factory Manager Li.
He Yuzhu had been living a leisurely and carefree life during this period of time. Every day, he watched Zhao Wanqiu's belly grow bigger and bigger. His mood was getting more and more excited by the day. After all, this was his first time being a father in two lifetimes. He could not wait to see his child.
Seeing that the year was about to pass, He Yuzhu was chatting with his disciple, Ma Hua, in the kitchen of the first canteen of the rolling mill. " Ma Hua, I've been teaching you how to cook the Big Pot Cuisine for the past year. I've tasted the Big Pot Cuisine you made just now, and it's about 80 - 90% of my standard. This shows that you've really put in your heart into it. As for cooking, the past two years have been bad, and our rolling mill hasn't received much hospitality. Although I've taught you a few dishes, there haven't been any ingredients for you to cook. You can't rush it. You can slowly learn when the days are better.”
"Master, I know that life is difficult now. It's not your fault. Anyway, I'm still young and have plenty of time to learn how to cook from you. Now that I can cook a big pot of dishes, I'm very grateful to you, Master. Thank you for your selfless guidance.”Ma Hua sincerely thanked his master, He Yuzhu. He knew that his master treated him very well. Not long after he came to the rolling mill, He Yuzhu took him in as an apprentice and taught him cooking skills. In less than two years, he could cook eighty to ninety percent of his master's cooking skills. Moreover, his master had taught him a lot. Basically, every time he served him, his master would call him to his side and carefully explain the cooking methods of each dish to him. If it weren't for the lack of ingredients in the past two years, he wouldn't have had the chance to learn. Ma Hua felt that he could be compared to the head chefs of the other canteens, and he was the only one who had such treatment in the entire cafeteria. Liu Lan and the others were all envious of him.
One had to know that many apprentice chefs started off by doing odd jobs for a few years before their masters started to teach them a little cooking. They didn't teach them diligently, afraid that their masters would starve to death. Unlike other chefs, his master He Yuzhu treated him very well, so he was very grateful to his master He Yuzhu. Of course, he respected his master very much. Usually, he would do whatever his master told him to do.
He Yuzhu said gratefully," Well, I know you're not bad, kid. You respect your teachers. However, your culinary skills are not bad. It's time to add more to your burden. In the future, the big pot of dishes in the first canteen will be handed over to you. Master will be in charge of entertaining you."”
" Master," Ma Hua said with a puzzled look," how can this work? I still have to study hard at my level."”
He Yuzhu waved her hand and smiled." Alright, I know what you're capable of. Just the taste of your big pot of food is indeed not much worse than mine. You saw that the workers didn't notice any difference between what they cooked and what I cooked today. Just do it boldly."
"Okay, Master, I'll listen to you.”
He Yuzhu smiled and said," Ah, that's right. You do well. As long as you don't make any mistakes in the next few months, I have a reason to apply to Director Wang for you to become a full-time employee."”
"Really? Thank you so much, Master.”Hua Ma said happily with a surprised expression. Although the apprenticeship period in every factory was three years, he had only been in the rolling mill for less than two years. Even if he waited until the new year, he would only have worked for two years. However, he believed that as long as his master asked, Director Wang would definitely give his master face and add him to the list of permanent employees in the factory next year. Ma Hua's current cooking skills would not have any problems passing the assessment. At that time, he would be able to become a permanent employee one year ahead of schedule and receive more salary. The more Hua Ma thought about it, the more excited he became. He looked at his master, who wished he could go and cook now.
He Yuzhu patted Ma Hua's shoulder and said earnestly,""Okay, work hard. As long as you maintain your current standard, I can guarantee that you'll become a full-time employee next year without any problems. Heh, with you making a big pot of rice in the future, I'll have more free time every day. As long as the factory doesn't entertain me, I'll be able to go home early to see your wife.”
Ma Hua also laughed. After a while, he asked,"Master, Master's wife is going to give birth in a few months?”
"Yes, three to four months." Speaking of Zhao Wanqiu, He Yuzhu could not hide the smile on his face. Ma Hua looked at his master who was beaming with joy and couldn't help but say longingly,""Master, when I become a full-time employee, I want to get someone to introduce me to someone. I also want to marry a beautiful and virtuous woman like Master's wife.”
He Yuzhu couldn't help but laugh out loud. He gave Ma Hua a thumbs up and said,""Heh, you're just like your master back then. You're ambitious and have high expectations for your future wife. Not bad, very good. You're indeed my disciple. But I have to tell you something. At that time, it was because my master's expectations were too high that I didn't like dozens of women. As a result, the matchmaker didn't even introduce a partner to me. If I wasn't lucky enough to meet Aunt Zhang and your master's wife on the way, your master might not have gotten married until now, let alone have a child. Therefore, I'm afraid that I'm going to have a child. If you want to marry a woman as good as your master's wife, you have to be prepared to be single.”
"Ah, Master, were you that miserable back then? Then I'll just find someone who has half of the conditions of Master's wife.”Ma Hua rubbed his head and chuckled.
"You can't say that. If your luck is good, you might be able to marry a good wife. However, as long as you work hard, the more you earn in the future, the better your wife will be.”
"Yes, Master, I will work harder in the future.”
" Good luck. Master has high hopes for you."
