He looked at the time. It was 11:30 in the afternoon.
He Yuzhu personally cooked lunch.
There was also no big fish, meat, and delicacies.
Not to mention an ordinary family, even if it was a trillion-dollar family or a royal family with immense power, there was no chicken, duck, fish, and other delicacies that did not leave their mouths.
That kind of eating method would only cause one result-gout plus three high.
In the afternoon, he scooped half a bowl of white flour, cracked a few eggs, and made a good omelet.
He stir-fried another plate of shredded potatoes.
The three of them made do with egg pancakes and shredded potatoes.
The so-called home-cooked dishes were the best.
After eating, He Daqing no longer had any objections to the fact that He Yuzhu was about to graduate.
After dinner, she left Yu Shui at home to follow He Daqing.
He Yuzhu rode He Daqing's bicycle straight to Luban Lane.
No. 47 Luban Lane, a two-story courtyard house. The second uncle, Liu Cheng, lived in the main courtyard.
Pushing the cart into the courtyard, He Yuzhu saw Liu Chengtong fiddling with a chair made of nanmu wood in the courtyard.
Hearing the commotion, he looked up and saw that it was He Yuzhu. Liu Cheng nodded as a greeting.
The second uncle was a skinny, honest, and taciturn old carpenter.
Usually, he would mainly help people repair and maintain some old furniture. He would also take on the work of making new furniture, but he usually did not do the work of ordinary materials.
When there was nothing to do, he could do his own research.
He could sit in the courtyard for an entire day studying the patterns on a chair.
Therefore, He Yuzhu was not surprised by Second Uncle's reaction.
On the other hand, Liu Cheng's son, Liu Ji, greeted He Yuzhu with a smile when he saw him enter." Zhu Zi, you're here?”
He Yuzhu nodded and called him 'brother'.
He walked to Liu Cheng's side and called him 'Second Grandmaster'.
When Liu Cheng raised his head, he knew that he meant 'I'm listening.' He Yuzhu said straightforwardly.
"Didn't I learn Sichuan Cuisine from Master Wu of Emei Restaurant a few years ago?
"The other day, Master said that the fire was almost ready and that he could make do with it. He decided to set up a few tables for a banquet next Sunday.
"I came over today to say hello to you. When Master's side has settled it, I'll rush over to send you an invitation on Sunday.
"Second, I also want to ask you for a favor.”
Liu Cheng listened quietly and nodded slightly, indicating for He Yuzhu to continue.
"I just built a small courtyard these few days, the kind that has been abandoned for a few years," He Yuzhu said truthfully.
"I just went in to take a look today. I feel that everything inside and outside needs to be renovated to make it convenient for people to live in.
"It's winter, so it's not easy to find people to do construction.
"I'm here to ask Second Uncle to help me see how to fix it and whether it can be repaired.
"I heard from my father that there are many masons living in your alley, and you are familiar with them.
"If we can start work now, I'll have to trouble you to help hire a few people.”
After listening to He Yuzhu, Liu Cheng pondered for two seconds and nodded gently." Alright, I'll go with you."”
With that, he put down the chair in his hand.
After explaining to Liu Ji how to take care of it and how to maintain it, she went straight into the house.
Not long after, Liu Cheng, who had tidied himself up again, came out pushing the cart. He greeted He Yuzhu," Lead the way."”
He Yuzhu smiled and replied, then added," It's just like the backyard of the courtyard we're living in now."
"A small courtyard with a garden at the back.
"The few rooms inside are mine. The courtyard and garden are considered public.
"But aren't I the only one living in the courtyard now?
"I was just thinking of tidying up the house, the yard, and the garden at the back.”
Although Liu Cheng was honest and taciturn, he had lived to this age after all, so his thoughts were clear.
Hearing He Yuzhu's words, she understood what he meant.
He nodded his head gently, as if he had tacitly agreed with He Yuzhu's words.
The two of them chatted casually along the way.
He Yuzhu spoke most of the time, while Liu Cheng was only responsible for listening. Occasionally, he nodded in response.
When they returned to the courtyard, He Daqing, who had heard the commotion, came out with the rain.
"Second brother, I've troubled you to make this trip.”
When they met, He Daqing apologized to Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng shook his head and paused before saying," We're family. It's what we should do."”
"Fine, I seem to be an outsider.”He Daqing raised his hand and gently slapped his own mouth. He smiled and said,"
"It's rare for Second Brother to come to my place. I'll cook two good dishes today.”
Liu Cheng nodded and did not refuse.
After he agreed, he looked at He Yuzhu and said," Let's take a look at the courtyard first?”
He Yuzhu liked this kind of proactive person. She nodded and entered the house to take the key before leading the way.
Liu Cheng, He Daqing, and He Yushui followed behind.
After He Yuzhu unlocked the door, the four of them entered the courtyard one after another.
The commotion here also completely attracted the attention of the neighbors in the courtyard.
Led by the future first aunt, Aunt Wang, the future second aunt, the future third aunt, Yang Ruihua, and seven or eight other women who stayed behind, including Jia Zhangshi, all came over curiously.
Seeing the four of them enter the courtyard that had been locked for several years, the few of them followed curiously and wanted to see what was going on.
Since she was moving into this courtyard, she couldn't hide it even if she wanted to.
He Yuzhu did not stop them. If they wanted to watch the show, let them.
He Yuzhu led Liu Cheng, He Daqing, and Yu Shui to the door of the main house.
He took the key to open the door and invited Liu Cheng in.
He Yuzhu did not need to introduce him. He had been a carpenter for many years and had interacted with the masons many times.
With a glance, Liu Cheng had a rough idea of the situation in the room.
"The furniture is a little old, mainly because it hasn't been maintained. It won't affect its continued use if it's sent to me for polishing.
"The floor and walls have to be redone.
"Also, there are a few tiles on this roof that don't look very stable. It's best to repair them one by one so that we don't have to live in fear when it snows heavily or rains heavily.”
When it came to professional matters, Liu Cheng suddenly became more talkative.
His gaze swept across the room full of old objects made of good materials, like a newly married man looking at his new wife.
Finally, he asked He Yuzhu," What's your decision?”
He Yuzhu didn't make a decision immediately. He just shook his head and said," I'll show you around the houses and courtyards first.”
Liu Cheng nodded and followed He Yuzhu to look at the two side rooms and the three opposite rooms.
After that, he followed He Yuzhu to the backyard to have a comprehensive understanding of the situation in the courtyard.
Liu Cheng had a few rough plans in his heart. He looked at the group of people in the courtyard who were watching the show. When the words reached his mouth, Liu Cheng swallowed them back down.
Seeing that he wanted to say something but hesitated, she knew that he was worried.
He Yuzhu smiled." Alright, since you're all done, let's go back to the house and have a glass of water before we discuss."”
After Liu Cheng nodded, He Yuzhu smiled at the onlookers and started to chase them away.
"Everyone, the excitement is almost over.
"I have to lock the door. Should we move?”
There were not many fools who came to watch the show.
He Yuzhu was able to take out the key to the main door and even bring people to check the main room, the side room, and the back seat one by one. This proved that this house was most likely under his name.
Even if it wasn't, it had something to do with him.
Now that they heard him 'shoo them away', they nodded and followed him out.
Only Jia Zhang-shi, looking at the few rooms in the courtyard, was getting more and more envious.
He even imagined the scene of Dongxu living in this courtyard and the young and beautiful girls in the city lining up to ask for a blind date.
Just as she was fantasizing, she suddenly heard He Yuzhu chase her away.
She didn't even think for a moment and directly cursed,
"Why?
"We're neighbors from the same courtyard. If you can enter this courtyard, why can't we?
"Do you think this courtyard belongs to you?”
