Siheyuan: living in a prosperous era

Chapter 69 Eating Western Food

After Yang Shuning takes over the courtyard house, he still has to save a few years to renovate it, otherwise he will have to use his family's financial resources. Anyway, there is no shortage of houses to live in now, so let's take his time.

Moreover, my family’s wealth is not visible to the public. Could I tell others that my family was also a big landowner in the past?Then you are seeking death!

The day after Yang Shuning viewed the house, she and Lou Xiao'e came to Lou's house.

"Dad, Mom, Brother Shu Ning and I are back." Lou Xiao'e started shouting as soon as she entered the door. She was quite excited to go back to her parents' house with Yang Shu Ning.

"Dad, Mom," Yang Shuning also called after entering the door and seeing Lou Zhenhua and Tan Yali in the living room.

"Shu Ning is here. Let's go to the study. Xiao'e, you and your mother are going to prepare lunch. Your mother will cook today."

When Lou Zhenhua saw his son-in-law arriving, I was also very happy. I took Yang Shuning's hand and walked to the study.

"Dad, the three uncles are not at home?"

Yang Shuning looked around and didn't find any of his uncles.

When he arrived at the study, Lou Zhenhua closed the door and said:
"The three of them have gone out. Don't worry about them. How about it? Are you satisfied with the house?"

"Thank you dad for your kindness. The house is very nice. I am here today to give you the money for the house."

Yang Shuning was very satisfied with the courtyard house and the price was right.

"Forget about money, I have been called Lou Bancheng before, and I still lack money like you. As long as you and Xiao'e are happy, let me be your grandfather as soon as possible."

What Lou Zhenhua lacks is not the 5000 yuan, but that Yang Shuning needs to be nicer to his daughter Lou Xiao'e.

"Dad, the money still needs to be collected, and I still have to get the transaction contract to transfer the ownership. The main reason is to file it with our hospital, so as not to be investigated and accused of corruption."

Fighting corruption and upholding integrity is something that everyone likes, and Yang Shuning is no exception, so of course he supports it with all his heart, and the 5000 yuan he used to buy a house came from his family's salary and his father's pension, which is an honest matter.

"Okay, don't give me the money. I will write the receipt and the sales contract for you. Just treat this courtyard as my gift to you, okay."

After Yang Shuning and Lou Zhenhua declined, Yang Shuning was defeated and the 5000 yuan was not given, so they got the receipt and the sales contract.

"Just keep your 5000 yuan first. You can keep the money at home for emergencies."

After all, Yang Shuning did not have enough social experience as Lou Zhenhua, so he was easily hunted by Lou Zhenhua and swallowed the sugar-coated bullets given by Lou Zhenhua.

After eating the candy, he also ate the shells. Fortunately, Lou Zhenhua had no intention of harming him.

"We should take this as a warning," Yang Shuning thought to himself as he walked out of the study.

At this time, Lou Xiao'e had already asked them to go down for dinner and came to the restaurant.

"Brother Shu Ning, can we have Western food today, okay? I haven't eaten for a long time and I want to eat. If it doesn't work, I will arrange for someone to replace it."

Lou Xiao'e and Yang Shuning were talking about today's meal arrangements. She was also afraid that Yang Shuning would not eat Western food, because Yang Shuning and Lou Xiao'e had never eaten together since they got together.

If you are an ordinary person in this era, you really rarely eat Western food. If everyone is not full, how can you afford to eat Western food?

For example, Jiang Defu in "Parental Love" visited Anjie as a guest when he and Anjie were in love. It was the first time for him as a regiment-level cadre to eat Western food, which shows how expensive and rare Western food was in this era.

It's a pity that Yang Shuning comes from a later generation. Although he is a rural doctor, his income is not bad. Not to mention the fast-food Western food in China, he has eaten innocent Western food several times when traveling abroad, and he also understands Western food etiquette.Although his stomach, which has been used to technology and hard work, is no longer used to Western food.

"Shuning, are you used to eating Western food? How about I ask someone to change it?" Lou Zhenhua was afraid that Yang Shuning would eat Western food for the first time, and that Yang Shuning would feel that he had neglected him.

"Dad, it's okay. There's no need to ask someone to change. I'm used to Western food."

After Yang Shuning finished speaking, he started to eat the appetizer.Today’s starter at Lou’s house is butter chicken crispy box.

During the meal, Yang Shuning ate Western food normally. Even if his Western food etiquette was irregular, no one would criticize him.

He just didn't eat enough. Which ordinary western restaurant in China follows authentic western food etiquette?

Local doctors like Yang Shuning can't afford authentic food. It's for rich people, not for middle class people like him.

There are sky-high price caviar and expensive black truffles. Ordinary people just think about how many of them can really afford them.Of course, my readers can afford it.The average reader has a deposit of one million, and everyone owns a Porsche!

"Brother Shu Ning, when did you eat Western food? You are very good at using knives and forks. There was an aunt who wanted to laugh at you before."

After the meal, Lou Xiao'e took Yang Shuning's hand and walked in the garden of the bungalow to eat.

"I saw it all from the book. I just didn't embarrass you."

Yang Shuning also just found out that Lou Zhenhua's little wife wanted to see his joke.

"No way. If you don't know how to eat, you won't know how to eat. Who knows it for the first time? Isn't it all learned later! That aunt also learned it after joining our Lou family."

Lou Xiao'e didn't take it seriously, as people are not born with it.If you don’t understand, you really can’t pretend to understand.

"Well, you have to teach me more in the future. I don't know how to do many things, such as playing bridge and golf!"

Yang Shuning didn't despise asking for advice. There was no shame in asking his own woman to learn skills.

"Well, I will teach you when I have the opportunity in the future."

Lou Xiao'e held Yang Shuning's hand and was a little happy. She also had the opportunity to teach Brother Shu Ning.

When the two returned from a walk in the garden, Yang Shuning asked, "Isn't there someone in the courtyard where I live who works as a servant in your parents' house? Why didn't you see her today? Is she on vacation again?"

Yang Shuning was talking about Xu Damao's mother, Xu Lin.

"She was fired by my father. After I settled the matter with you, my father fired her because he was afraid that she would spread the news about us. If it spread, it would affect you."

Lou Xiaoe knew who her man was talking about.

"Oh, she won't report anything about your family, right?"

Yang Shuning was also afraid that Xu's mother would know about him and Lou Xiao'e. If Xu's mother knew about it, Xu Damao would know about it.Xu Damao knows, who knows what he will do.

"No, my dad's reason for dismissing him was that she was old. He gave her a large amount of money to support her in her old age. It can also be regarded as hush money, so it should be fine."

"That's fine."

"Brother Shu Ning, don't worry, my dad does things in a measured way."

Yang Shuning felt that it was right. Apart from Lou Zhenhua's refusal to replenish his money in advance, he was indeed a shrewd businessman in other aspects.
