Siheyuan: Rebirth of the Silly Pillar, with incredible understanding

Chapter 197 The Grain and Oil Shop in Dongzhimen

Patting Yu Yu's shoulder, He Yuzhu couldn't help but said: "I've grown a lot taller recently."

They haven't seen each other for a week, but He Yuzhu is visibly taller from the rain. Moreover, judging from the complexion on his face, he obviously eats quite nutritiously at the master's house.

Listening to his brother's words, Yu Yu smiled and nodded: "Yes, Uncle Li makes delicious food for me every day, and the taste is no worse than my brother's."

He Yuyu was always well-behaved and obedient. In Li Bao's country, he was pampered by the two of them and gave this girl all the good things he had.

It can be said that her life now is more comfortable than at home before.

After all, He Yuzhu doesn't bring snacks back to Yuyu from time to time.

As soon as he heard this, He Yuzhu knew that this girl was quite greedy.

Even though he pinched his fleshy cheeks.

Xiao Qiuzhen saw her at the side, and the smile on her face never stopped.

Before they met Zhu Zhu, their family had no worries about food and drink, but because they had no children and had trouble with their family members, their life was actually very ordinary.

Ever since Li Baoguo accepted an apprentice like Zhu Zhu and brought rainwater to his home, his life suddenly became colorful.

Having a daughter like Yu Yu is completely different from the boring days before.

Therefore, when the couple wants something good, they naturally think of rain first.

Spent a while in the yard.

Soon, in the kitchen, Li Baoguo's food was ready.

He Yuzhu helped the mistress to arrange the bowls and then went to the kitchen to bring the dishes.

Steamed white rice, stewed rooster, mapo tofu, and Li Baoguo added two more dishes because Zhu Zhu suddenly came over.

Putting all this on the table, He Yuzhu couldn't help but click his tongue as he looked at this sumptuous meal.

No wonder Yu Yu is such a good-looking girl. With this food, whoever eats it can’t do well?

In an era when it was common to eat steamed buns, cornmeal paste, and pickled vegetable dumplings, many children from poor families would see their eyes gleam and be unable to walk if they ate like this at his master's house.

He Yuzhu knew in his heart that according to the state of the master and his wife, there was no need to eat like this often.

After all, the two of them are at their age, and the chef at Hongbinlou Restaurant can often bring food, so they are not short of fuel and water.

Just because she cares about the rain, she is young and growing, so the master and the wife spend extra money to help make delicious food.

He Yuzhu did not say these things out loud, but he kept them in his heart.

At the dinner table, they were eating and chatting.

He Yuzhu also mentioned his experience of leaving the city.

This is also to remind the master and his wife that during these days, if there is nothing to do, try to go out of the city as little as possible.

"Zhuzi, are you saying that the banditry outside the city is very serious during this period?"

After hearing the news about Zhu Zhu, a flash of hesitation flashed across Xiao Qiuzhen's face.

"Yes, Master. This is what a big brother I met at the Military Control Commission told me. It's best for you and the master to stay in the city these days. There is a guy in our hospital who went to the countryside with the master to play a movie yesterday, and we bumped into each other. bandit."

He Yuzhu nodded.

As long as this kind of news is not leaked to outsiders, the master and master are all our own people, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

If something happened to the master and his wife because he didn't notify him, He Yuzhu would regret it.

Zhu Zhu's affirmative reply made Xiao Qiuzhen's face look solemn, and she subconsciously looked at Li Baoguo.

The two looked at each other and seemed to realize it in their hearts.

He Yuzhu felt the expression on his master's wife's face and didn't think much about it. He just regarded it as a normal reaction due to the chaotic situation outside.

However, during the next meal, the master and mistress were a little absent-minded, which made He Yuzhu feel moved.

It doesn't seem that simple?

However, He Yuzhu remained calm until after lunch, when He Yuzhu asked Yuzhu to go back to the house to take a nap. I found my master and my wife.

"Master, Master, do you have any problems with the bandits?"

He Yuzhu's words made both Xiao Qiuzhen and Li Baoguo slightly startled. Finally, Li Baoguo glanced at Xiao Qiuzhen and nodded: "This is not something that cannot be said."

Seeing this, Xiao Qiuzhen sighed slightly: "Zhuzi, you should also know about Master's wife's family situation. My parents own a grain and oil store, just over there in Dongzhimen."

Seeing this, He Yuzhu nodded.

"In recent years, I have not had much contact with my family because of the matter of protecting the country. It is impossible to say that I don't feel anything. After all, it is my own family. Apart from my brother, I am the only one in the family."

Speaking of this, Xiao Qiuzhen also had a look of nostalgia on her face.

Obviously, she misses her mother's family.

A while ago, news came from my family that there were some difficulties in the business, and there was a problem with the supply of grain and oil.

Although their family owns a grain and oil store, it is not large in scale and cannot compare with those big capitalists.

In other words, they are more beautiful than ordinary people.

Once something happened to this supply of goods, their purchasing channels were affected, which naturally affected their business.

In the beginning, Xiao Qiuzhen's parents were able to persist for a while thanks to the connections they had accumulated over the years.

I thought it was just an ordinary fluctuation, but who knew that it has been going on for such a long time and the supply of goods has never improved. These connections and channels have also been cut off because grain and oil resources have not been loosened.

Now, their grain and oil store began to face crisis.

If we can no longer obtain supplies, it will be difficult to maintain our business.

In desperation, her parents also asked someone to find Xiao Qiuzhen, thinking that Li Baoguo worked in Hongbin Building to see if there was any way.

After Xiao Qiuzhen learned the news, she immediately discussed it with Li Baoguo.

Although my parents' side was in a tense situation because of Li Baoguo's incident.

But Xiao Qiuzhen knew that in fact, the objections from her parents and brother were not that loud.

But there are seven aunts and eight aunts in the family, there are too many relatives, and there are too many interests involved.

If Li Baoguo had been promoted to chef at the state banquet, everything would have been easy.

But in the end the promotion failed, leaving a mess behind.

These have more or less affected the interests of these people.

Therefore, under the coercion of relatives, the two parties broke off contact.

At this time, my parents asked someone to come to them. I am afraid the situation is quite urgent.

Regarding this kind of matter, Li Baoguo said that he would listen to Xiao Qiuzhen.

And Xiao Qiuzhen is not young anymore. Considering the situation of her parents at that time, although it is wrong, she can be considered to be more tolerant.

In any case, these are the parents who gave birth to and raised him after all. If the two families can communicate with each other through such an opportunity, it is a relief for him.

Even if she gets old in the future, she will have no regrets.
