Chen Lan's mind went blank when she heard He Yuzhu's words.
Not bringing anything?
Was He Yuzhu joking?
Wasn't he the one who brought a lot of them every day?
He wasn't happy when others brought him along, so what was wrong with him today?
Chen Lan was just about to ask with her doubts.
In the end, He Yuzhu asked.
"Why? You don't want to bring it?"
"If you don't want to bring them, why don't you let Ma Hua and the others bring more?”
Chen Lan immediately shook her head and said,""No, I didn't say that."
"I'm not as generous as you. I just feel that"
He Yuzhu looked at Chen Lan and asked,"What do you think? If you have anything to say, just say it!"”
Chen Lan smiled and pursed her lips."I couldn't tell. He Yuzhu, you're quite charming today.”
As soon as he finished speaking, He Yuzhu immediately felt embarrassed.
"Don't, sister. If Deputy Factory Manager Li hears what you're saying, I'll lose my position.”
"I'm going to live alone anyway. I'll just go home and eat something. There's no need to bring it back.”
After saying that, He Yuzhu left.
Chen Lan looked at He Yuzhu's back and muttered.
"Alone?"
"Aren't you still in charge of Qin Huairu's family?”
"What? Have you completely woken up?”
The news of He Yuzhu bringing food for Qin Huairu's family had long spread in the canteen. It was almost known to everyone.
Chen Lan shook her head and said to herself,"This He Yuzhu, why does it feel like he's a different person!”
"Strange!"
After that, He Yuzhu cooked a few specialty dishes for the leaders.
All the leaders in the rolling mill liked to eat He Yuzhu's dishes.
The canteen of the Red Star Rolling Mill was also famous in Beijing. Everyone knew that the dishes in the rolling mill were especially delicious and clean.
There were even some people who did not care about the cost and exchanged some meal tickets from the rolling mill employees to eat in the canteen.
He Yuzhu made a table full of dishes according to the agreed time at noon. There were hot and cold dishes, soup and porridge.
It could be said to be the standard food on the leaders 'dining table.
After he was done with this series of matters, he returned to the canteen to rest. He waited for the leaders to finish eating before bringing his people to 'clean up'.
Ma Hua, Chen Lan, and the others went in and saw the scattered dishes on the table.
Some of the dishes were eaten clean, while some were left with half a plate.
The few of them did not stand on ceremony at all. Each of them was given a box of food to take away.
Ma Hua looked at He Yuzhu and asked,""Master, you really don't need to bring some?”
He Yuzhu waved his hand and said seriously,""I won't bring them. I'll go back and cook alone.”
"My sister said a few days ago that she was craving for stewed chicken. I'll go to Dongdan Market after work later!”
"Buy a chicken for my Yushui to stew!”
Ma Hua smiled and said,""Alright, Master, then I won't stand on ceremony. I really won't leave any for you!”
Ma Hua grinned and started packing up.
After He Yuzhu was done with the canteen, she got off work early in the afternoon and went to Dongdan Market alone.
This was one of the four famous state-owned vegetable markets in Beijing. There were also Xidan, Chaonei, and Chongwenmen in various directions of the capital.
These were state-owned, so naturally, buying and selling all kinds of grain, vegetables, and meat required tickets.
He Yuzhu naturally had everything in his pocket. His monthly salary was 37.5 yuan, which was considered pretty good in Beijing.
He strolled in.
At this time, many state-owned stalls had already closed. After all, the sun had gradually set, and the day's business was almost done.
He Yuzhu looked at these state-owned businesses and knew that he couldn't count on them today. If he went back empty-handed.
Rainwater had to say something to him. After all, he had already delayed it for several days.
However, He Yuzhu knew that there would be some scattered private businesses near each state-owned market.
They usually guarded the entrance of the alley to prevent themselves from being discovered.
He Yuzhu walked out of the market and looked at the surrounding alleys.
Sure enough, at the entrance of an alley, she saw an old man riding a bicycle with a few chickens hanging from the tail.
He walked over and asked the old man,""Sir, this chicken is for sale, right?"
The old man looked around and said,""Of course I'm selling!"
"Look at what kind of chicken you want. I have it all here, but there aren't many left. The ones I brought today are almost sold out. There are only two old hens and a rooster left."
The old man hesitated for a moment and said,""There are also a few chicks that just came out of their nests. They came over to test the water and see if they could touch a suitable one to sell.”
After saying that, the old man opened the cardboard box on the back seat of the bicycle. There were really a few chicks jumping around and chattering inside.
He Yuzhu glanced at it and asked,"How much is this?"”
The old man stretched out his finger and said," This old hen is two yuan, and the rooster is one yuan. If you want all the chicks, I'll give you three for one yuan and two yuan. How about that?"”
He Yuzhu pondered for a moment. He thought that his paradise was still empty. He might as well buy some chickens and bring them in to lay eggs for himself.
Therefore, he waved his hand and said,"Alright, how about this, Old Master? I'll take all of these.”
"Don't say 6.20, just round it up.”
When the old man heard this, he also considered it for a moment and nodded."Alright then. I'm going back too. Everyone at home is waiting.”
"You can have it, young man."
"But I don't accept tickets. Nowadays, sons still need money to get married!”
He Yuzhu immediately collected the tickets in her hand and took out six yuan to give to the old man.
Then, he tied a few chicken legs together and held them in his hands. He was holding a paper box in his arms, which contained the little chicks.
He Yuzhu asked,"Sir, this is a hen, right? Can it lay eggs?"”
When the old man heard that, he became anxious.
"How can I not lay eggs? I laid eggs this morning. If it weren't for my son getting married and the old lady at home asking me to sell them for money, I wouldn't have been willing!”
"You've earned a lot."
When He Yuzhu heard that, he smiled in satisfaction and said,""Alright, then we'll leave."
After saying that, He Yuzhu planned to walk back.
However, he had so many things in his hands that he really could not carry them.
At this moment, he had an idea.
