Get something in the courtyard

When Guo Xianghong got up to make breakfast, she felt that the atmosphere in the courtyard was not right. Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong were sitting in the middle courtyard, their eyes fixed on their family.

This is clearly a prelude to dealing with them.

"Silly pillar."

Sha Zhu opened his eyes dazedly: "Wife, what time is it?"

Guo Xianghong said, "It's past seven o'clock. Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong are sitting in the yard, staring at our house. Judging from their looks, they are likely to deal with us."

Sha Zhu sat up angrily and said while putting on his clothes: "Aren't they annoying? They are always thinking about plotting against me. If they have the free time, can't they go out and find a job by themselves?
This really is what Wang Kun said, life goes on and the calculations never stop.

I will go and teach them a lesson right away."

Guo Xianghong stopped him and said, "Don't be impulsive. They just want to take advantage of our family."

Sha Zhu was stunned for a moment, then said: "Don't worry. I will piss them off to death. It's not a crime to kill someone with anger anyway."

Guo Xianghong was worried, so he quickly followed Sha Zhu out.

As soon as Sha Zhu appeared, Yi Zhonghai stood up, with a look of joy on his face, as if his plan had succeeded.

"Shazhu, you came out just in time. Lao Liu and I have something to discuss with you."

Sha Zhu said angrily: "Yi Zhonghai, you bastard, what are you going to say again?"

The word "son of a bitch" almost broke Yi Zhonghai's defense.

Seeing that Yi Zhonghai was in a bad mood, Qin Huairu hurried forward to comfort him.

With Qin Huairu's comfort, Yi Zhonghai finally calmed down. He took a deep breath, suppressed his unhappiness, and said to Sha Zhu: "I heard from Old Yan that you work in the Yan family's restaurant and earn 500 yuan a month."

When the five hundred yuan was mentioned, those people in the courtyard who didn't know the truth were shocked, and then they all showed envious looks.

Most of the people present had a salary of less than fifty yuan. Sha Zhu's monthly salary was ten times theirs. This was not counting the salary Sha Zhu received from working in the steel mill.

"How much money I make has nothing to do with you. If you don't agree, go and earn it yourself."

This sentence is even more infuriating.

Doesn’t Yi Zhonghai want to make money?
Of course he wanted to, but the key was that no one was willing to pay him so much.

However, with Qin Huairu comforting him, he was not too angry: "I'm not talking to you about salary. I'm talking to you about Huairu's family.

It is too difficult for Huairu to support so many elderly people in the hospital alone. Her children don't earn much money. Since you are so capable, you should help her.

I know you are reluctant to pay. Filial piety should come from the heart. If you don't want to be filial, we can't do anything about it.

However, it won't be too much of a hindrance for you to accept Bang Geng as your apprentice! After Bang Geng learns your cooking skills, he can support himself. If you want to help us in the future, we won't need you."

Sha Zhu said, "You drank too much yesterday because of the wine that Uncle San mixed with water. Why should I accept Bang Geng as my apprentice?"

Qin Huairu said aggrievedly: "Shazhu, can't you give Banggeng a chance to live? He is already thirty years old, and he still doesn't have a job, and he can't find a wife. Do you want to force him to death?"

Sha Zhu glanced at Bang Geng and said, "What's wrong with being thirty? Do you still remember what you told me back then?

You tell me, Liu Guangfu, Yan Jiekuang, and Banggeng in the hospital are not married, so I don’t need to be so anxious to find a wife. I also say this to you, Aiguo in our family and Zhu Jun in Liu Yuhua’s family are not married, so why is Banggeng in your family so anxious? "

Jia Zhang was furious when she heard this and yelled at Sha Zhu, "Sha Zhu, what right do you have to say this about our Bang Geng? Our Bang Geng worships you as his master because he thinks highly of you. Don't be so shameless.

You should learn from Yi Zhonghai, how he took care of our Dongxu back then, and you should take care of our Banggeng in the same way."

Sha Zhu laughed: "I can't afford your family's stick. The main thing is that I am not as conscienceless as Yi Zhonghai, who fooled the whole courtyard into supporting your family."

Yi Zhonghai's eyes turned red with anger. He glared at Sha Zhu fiercely and cursed, "Sha Zhu, you ungrateful wolf."

Qin Huairu saw this and knew that Yi Zhonghai could not be relied on, so he said to Liu Haizhong: "Second Uncle, please help me say a word. We let Banggeng worship Shazhu as our master because we really want him to learn skills from Shazhu. We have no other ideas."

Liu Haizhong had been fooled by Yi Zhonghai and his mind was not clear. After listening to Qin Huairu's words, he really stood up and said, "Silly Zhu, don't be suspicious all the time. Today I want you to accept Bang Geng as your apprentice and let him learn cooking from you. There is no other meaning.

You can accept outsiders as your apprentices, so why can't you accept Bang Geng as your apprentice? "

The people in the courtyard showed their expectation. Sha Zhu could earn so much money, if their children could become his apprentice, they would definitely earn more than Sha Zhu. As long as Sha Zhu agreed, they would make demands on him together.

Guo Xianghong wanted to stand up, but was stopped by Sha Zhu, who signaled her not to speak.

Sha Zhu looked around at the people around him and said, "You want to become my disciple? Fine, I don't need to tell you the etiquette for becoming my disciple!"

Qin Huairu thought his plan had worked, and said with a smile, "We know, we must follow the rules."

Her idea was that as long as they followed the rules, Sha Zhu would not be able to get rid of their family. Back then, Jia Dongxu followed the rules and became Yi Zhonghai's apprentice. That's why Yi Zhonghai took care of their family so wholeheartedly.

Even after Jia Dongxu passed away, Yi Zhonghai did not abandon their family.

Sha Zhu continued, "If you want to learn how to cook, just prepare the food at home. When I get off work, I will teach you at home. What food do you buy? What do I teach you?
It just so happens that the dishes are ready for your dinner. Look at Second Uncle, he has only been eating with your family for a short time. He has become skinny due to hunger. "

This sentence touched Liu Haizhong's heart. Living with Qin Huairu, the food was indeed comfortable in the first month, but later it became worse and worse.

Liu Haizhong nodded: "Shazhu's idea is good, it's a good opportunity for everyone to give Banggeng some suggestions."

This result was not what Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu wanted. They knew how much Sha Zhu consumed when he was learning to cook. He Daqing sent Sha Zhu to the restaurant to learn Sichuan cuisine because he had no ingredients.

Qin Huairu said aggrievedly: "Silly Zhu, how can an apprentice buy vegetables and learn to cook by himself?"

Sha Zhu waved his hands: "Then I can't do anything. You can't ask me, a master, to buy vegetables for Bang Geng to practice with!"

Seeing that the plan was about to succeed, Yi Zhonghai was no longer angry and said calmly: "You can bring Banggeng with you..."

"What kind of guy should I take? Yi Zhonghai, come on, tell me how should I take him? Should I take him to the steel mill or take her to Yan Jiecheng's restaurant?

The steel mill belongs to the state, I have no right to take him with me. Yan Jiecheng's restaurant is not my business. If you don't want to spend your own money, then give Banggeng a place to study. "Sha Zhu didn't let Yi Zhonghai finish a sentence.

After saying this, Sha Zhu took Guo Xianghong home.

Guo Xianghong returned home and couldn't help laughing: "You are really smart. Did you think about it a long time ago? You want to push the problem to them."

Sha Zhu said proudly: "Of course. They think being an apprentice is that easy. When I was learning Sichuan cuisine, I not only had to find a master, but also had to get the restaurant to agree. Otherwise, even if the master was willing to accept me, I would have no place to learn.

They delayed us, and we don't have time to cook. Let's go out to eat!" (End of this chapter)
