The holy snowflakes sprinkled down and covered the streets and alleys of the capital in a single night.
In the blink of an eye, the city turned pale.
The overwhelming winter snow bent the tall trees.
The cold wind was bone-piercing, like steel needles piercing through people's hearts.
Winter had arrived!
Time flew, and Hua Ma had been in this era for a year.
In this one year, Ma Hua had gone from a young unemployed youth to a mature and steady great working class.
He had mastered the craft that he relied on to survive, and he was married.
His wife was also four months pregnant.
Seeing Lu Ge's slightly bulging belly, Ma Hua revealed a blissful smile.
Ever since Ma Hua finished a welcome meal last time, the factory's leaders had given up on the idea.
Ma Hua had expected this. After all, he had only displayed the cooking skills of a low-tier second-class chef. If the leader could still let him take over this matter,
Ma Hua accepted it.
However, it was obvious that those leaders who liked to eat and drink were all gluttons. They were very picky!
He didn't care about Ma Hua's craftsmanship at all.
After hearing about this, Silly Zhu became excited. He went to the Sichuan Cuisine Master's house every day and felt that he could surpass Ma Hua in stir-frying.
As for Big Pot of Dish, Silly Zhu didn't have much confidence.
After all, it was not like he had never eaten the dishes cooked by Ma Hua before. He thought that there was no hope in this aspect.
However, for a chef like Shazhu who had a teacher, the big pot of food was at most filling his stomach.
Only stir-fried dishes were truly romantic for chefs!
Therefore, he did not care about the cooking method of the Big Pot Cuisine!
……
And in this unusually cold weather, the Yan family was preparing to marry their eldest son, Yan Jiecheng.
As for why he chose such a day?
Yan Fugui will tell you his plan.
Two months ago…
"Dad, why did I have to choose winter as my wedding day? What would happen to the ceremony if the snow blocked the road?”Yan Jiecheng asked his father in confusion.
Faced with his son's question, Yan Fugui took a sip of wine and smacked it in his mouth. He recalled the wine that was mixed with water in his mouth.
A glint flashed across his eyes as he asked slowly,"
"Son, what do I always teach you?”
Yan Jiecheng answered in confusion,"
"You don't have to be poor to eat and wear.”
When Yan Fugui heard this, he slammed the table and said,"
"That's right! Tell me, if we choose another day, what if Yu Li requests to hold a banquet?
But if I choose winter, can this banquet be canceled openly?”
Hearing his father's words, Yan Jiecheng smiled bitterly and advised,"
"Isn't it normal to hold a wedding banquet? If Yu Li wants to do it, let's do it for her!”
When Yan Fugui heard this, he shook his head and said,
"You're really 'easy to say' and 'you don't know how expensive rice is if you don't take charge of the family'!
If we had this money, wouldn't our family be able to use the bicycle ticket rewarded by the school to buy a bicycle?
Moreover, after holding a banquet, it was just a gift from the neighbors. He was afraid that he would not even be able to recover the cost.”
Yan Jiecheng's eyes lit up when he heard that his father wanted to buy a bicycle. He asked expectantly,"
"A bicycle? Dad, you want to buy a bicycle? I knew you wouldn't treat your son like this.
Don't worry, after you buy me a bicycle, Yu Li will definitely not say anything about not having a banquet!”
Yan Fugui quickly corrected him when he heard that Yan Jiecheng was thinking wrongly.
"What bicycle for you? That's for me!”
Yan Jiecheng became anxious when he heard that. He questioned,
"You didn't hold a wedding banquet for your son just to buy a bicycle for yourself?”
Seeing that Yan Jiecheng still dared to question him, Yan Fugui was furious.
She put down the wine glass and said,
"I have my own money, my own bicycle ticket. Why should I buy it for you?”
Yan Jiecheng became even more anxious when he heard that. He said,
"I'm your son! What's wrong with buying me a bicycle as a wedding gift?”
When Yan Fugui heard this, he was no longer anxious. He poured himself a glass of wine and said,"
"I'm your dad. After buying a car, you and Yu Li can ride it too!”
"However, you have to pay a price!”Yan Fugui added in his heart.
Yan Jiecheng, who didn't know what was going on, was at a loss when he heard what his father said.
He could only comfort himself with the words "it's all the same".
She turned around…
The Yan family chose to keep a low profile, so Yu Li would enter today.
Yu Li, who was wearing new clothes and shoes, followed Yan Jiecheng to the Yan family's house and found that her new shoes were already wet because the road was blocked by heavy snow.
She sat by the bed and changed into a pair of Third Aunt's old shoes.
However, the new clothes on her body and the old shoes on her feet did not match no matter how she looked at them.
Ma Hua originally thought that no one would go to watch the show in such weather.
In the end, he still underestimated this era where there were no entertainment activities.
Almost all the residents were crowding in the front yard and surrounding the Yan family.
This kind of situation was definitely not suitable for a pregnant woman like Lu Ge to participate in close range.
Therefore, Ma Hua accompanied Lu Ge to sit at the door, eating melon seeds and watching the show.
"Congratulations, Third Uncle. Once Jie Cheng gets married, he'll be able to have grandchildren soon!”Everyone began to speak auspicious words.
However, Ma Hua's expression was a little strange when he heard this.
He remembered that Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li hadn't had a child for a long time in the original drama.
However, the two of them had never divorced.
With Yu Li's personality, Yan Jiecheng's body should be fine.
Since Yan Fugui wanted to have a grandchild so badly and didn't say anything weird about Yu Li, it proved that it wasn't Yu Li's problem.
In that case, it should be a matter of probability.
Thinking of this, Ma Hua shook his head.
At this moment, Yan Fugui came out of the house and cupped his hands to the surroundings,"
"Thank you for your blessings, neighbors!
Xie Cheng and Yu Li will go to each house to give out wedding candies later, so don't surround them. The weather is quite cold.
It'll be our fault if it freezes!”
After hearing Yan Fugui's words, everyone started to disperse.
At this moment, Ma Hua finally understood why so many people had come to the Yan family despite the cold.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
As the crowd dispersed, Yan Fugui saw Ma Hua and Lu Ge.
He walked over with a smile and said to Ma Hua,"
"Xiao Ma, today is the wedding day. I want to ask you to help me cook.”
Ma Hua looked at Yan Fugui's smiling and flattering face,
He knew that the freeloader was here, so he asked,
"Teacher Yan, how many tables are there?"
Yan Fugui quickly replied,"
"A table!"
"A table? How can I pay for a table?
Forget it, Teacher Yan, I won't accept it!”
When Yan Fugui heard that he had to collect money, he pulled his old face and said,"
"Little Ma, we're neighbors on this street. It's too distant to talk about money! How about this, you can bring back the leftovers later. It's also a little token of Third Master's appreciation.”
Ma Hua thought to himself,"
"Leftovers? I still lack your leftovers. Moreover, with your personality, I might not even have leftovers when the time comes!”
She rejected him.
"Teacher Yan, I'm a big pot chef. You might as well cook your own table of food!
I'm not very good at making notes.
If you don't believe me, go and ask around. The factory leader asked me to do it once last time, but he didn't let me touch it again!”
Yan Fugui understood that Ma Hua had declined. Moreover, he would know if Ma Hua was telling the truth from Silly Zhu, so Ma Hua wouldn't lie.
The most important thing was that he was worried that Ma Hua might ruin his own ingredients, so he gave up.
In the evening, Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li began to distribute wedding candies from house to house.
Yes, two for each family, and they were also hard candies.
As for the milk candy, he didn't buy it at all.
When it came to Ma Hua's family, Yu Li was dumbfounded when she saw Ma Hua's expression.
She didn't expect to meet an " acquaintance " in the same courtyard, and most importantly, someone she had gone on a blind date with.
However, when he saw the pregnant Lu Ge, he came back to his senses.
He handed over four candies and left!
As he left, Ma Hua could still hear Yan Jiecheng whispering to Yu Li,"
" Why did he give his family two extra pills? Dad will nag again when we go back later…"
Ma Hua nodded slightly when he heard this. He knew that Old Yan would do such a thing.
However, she was still very happy.
Ever since his fitness level had increased, his hearing and vision had improved significantly, and his body had become stronger and stronger!
