Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

Chapter 79 Making Uncooked Rice Ripe Rice

He Yuzhu said: "The front room mainly sells tobacco and alcohol, and then the two rooms sell breakfast. At noon, they specialize in braised vegetables."

"That's good. You can study at Tai Feng Building with peace of mind. You must master my craft and it's not too late to go out and work alone."

Everyone who works as a chef has a dream of opening a restaurant, but most people are unable to take care of both.

After all, a chef asks him to manage a restaurant. Many people have no business skills at all. After working for a while, the restaurant goes bankrupt.

I had no choice but to find a job as a chef and be a full-time chef with peace of mind.

He Yuzhu started selling braised pork for breakfast. The main reason is that this business does not allow credit. After all, breakfast only costs one or two cents. Even buying braised pork is only a few cents, and there is very little credit.

This way the funds can be withdrawn faster.

Hong Henian nodded to confirm that there was no problem. The four of them chatted about the layout of the facade for a while. He Yuzhu rejected the old-fashioned layout and decided to use glass to separate the front and rear.

The side against the wall is sealed with glass. Like many breakfast stalls in later generations, you can directly see how the buns are being made inside, which makes customers feel at ease.

All employees must wear white coats and hats. They must be neat and tidy so that people can tell that they are clean and hygienic at a glance. The meat will not use sow pork or high-temperature meat. The main purpose is to ensure peace of mind for customers to eat. of peace of mind.

This kind of layout has been common in later generations, but these days there are not such high standards for hygiene.

Many breakfast stalls set up a stall on the roadside. When the wind blows, dust falls on the buns and filling basins.

Even so, customers rarely complain and have become accustomed to it. After all, the sanitary conditions of roadside stalls are like this.

Everyone is here to eat at a roadside stall, who cares about how clean it can be?

Hong Henian's eyes lit up and he nodded and said, "You have a good idea. Whether you are opening a hotel or a breakfast shop, the most important thing is hygiene."

"Let the guests see it, and seal it entirely with large glass, which will make people feel most at ease."

With the master's approval, He Yuzhu's biggest obstacle to opening a restaurant was gone. After all, just a few days after he recognized his master, he opened a restaurant by himself.

Back at the restaurant, He Yuzhu added some ingredients, took the night off, and then went to find Master Song.

When he saw He Yuzhu, he asked: "What's going on? Is there something wrong?"

"No, there is nothing wrong with the house."

He Yuzhu said: "I have other things to do with you. The thing is like this, I rented a storefront."

There was nothing wrong with that house, but the layout inside was all for selling clothes, and there were some wooden counters.

He Yuzhu still needed to readjust his position, so he wanted to repaint the walls inside the house.

A kitchen needs to be built at the back of the house, and the floor tiles need to be renovated.

"Okay, let's go have a look."

He Yuzhu brought Master Song to the storefront. The two discussed every place and confirmed how to fix it. Finally, Master Song asked strangely: "Don't you have a counter here?"

He Yuzhu said a lot of things, but he did not arrange a counter. You must know that in the past, the counters were made of bricks, with a layer of cement on them to make them strong and durable.

He Yuzhu said: "Instead of bricks, I use all counters made of wood, with a layer of marble slab on top."

It is better to use stainless steel for catering, but stainless steel is not available at this time.

I don't know if they are produced.

He Yuzhu planned to use a wooden counter with a marble slab as the countertop.

Use glass on the side so that people can see the braised pork inside the counter.

Master Song said: "Okay, it's settled then. I'll settle the accounts later and let's talk about the price."

"Okay, but we need to start work as soon as possible."

"I will contact the materials immediately and ask them to send them over as soon as possible."

Master Song went back to make contact first, while He Yuzhu went into the backyard to clean up the house.

After this shop opened, He Yuzhu planned to move here.

It is clean and tidy here. After the moon door in the middle is locked, it is a single-family house, which is extremely clean.

It's better than a courtyard in a courtyard.

What's more, it's closer to the master's house and life is more convenient.

When no one was around, He Yuzhu took out his set of carpentry tools and dismantled the original wooden counter and the cabinet for hanging clothes.

At this time, the camel delivering the materials also arrived.

What many people don't know is that before liberation, there were many camels specifically bred to transport goods in the western suburbs and southwest of the capital.

Speaking of Camel Xiangzi, everyone knows that camels were not uncommon in the capital before liberation.

Camels are docile and easy to tame. People in the countryside tame camels specifically to deliver goods.

Coal, wood, sand, cement bricks, and all kinds of heavy goods can be transported by camel and sold in the streets.

This time the camel team delivered some building materials such as bricks, cement and sand, and they were also responsible for unloading the goods.

Soon, Master Song brought people over.

He Yuzhu paid a deposit of 50 yuan, and a few people started working.

He Yuzhu went to Wangji Woodware Shop on Shizipo Street, entered the door, and said, "Boss Wang, I'm ordering a batch of wood."

"Okay, what do you want this time?"

He Yuzhu told the specifications of the containers, wooden tables, and benches he needed to make. Then shopkeeper Wang calculated the demand, and He Yuzhu added some more wood. Anyway, if you buy more at one time, you can negotiate the price. In the future, you will have to practice and build the interior of the house. used furniture.

Making any woodworking furniture requires experience, so He Yuzhu plans to make all the counters, benches, tables and chairs he needs to open his shop by hand.

The tables, chairs and benches used in the breakfast shop only need to be solid, and there is no need to consider the shape.

He Yuzhu planned to upgrade his level to level two first, and then start making his own.

After asking for ordinary wood, He Yuzhu bought some old furniture, all of which were made of good materials, such as mahogany, huanghuali, and red sandalwood.

These pieces of furniture were all dilapidated and could only be dismantled for use as spare materials.

I selected a total of 300 yuan of ingredients, and then I paid the bill and asked the boss to deliver it to Yantai Xiejie.

It was almost dark when the goods were delivered, and He Yuzhu put all the wood in the yard into the space.

Just last night, He Yuzhu discovered a new function in the system space.

It is He Yuzhu who can control the knife to split and polish the wood by relying on his willpower in space.

Under the control of mental power, it is countless times faster than making it by yourself.

And this kind of control can be precise to a very fine level. If you want to make a wooden board with a smooth surface, you need to use a plane many times to make it smooth and neat.

However, He Yuzhu used his mental power to make the smooth wooden board in just one pass.

The only disadvantage is that operating in space does not increase professional experience, but it can save a lot of time.

The logs are sent in, and what comes out are the various boards, square timbers, and various structures required for mortise and tenon joints needed to make furniture, which can be made in the space.

After packing his things, He Yuzhu returned to the courtyard.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, Yan Bugui stopped her and said happily: "Zhuzhu, you don't know yet, but Jia Dongxu went on a blind date today. She is a very beautiful girl."

"Did you get the chance?" He Yuzhu asked.

Yan Bugui nodded: "Can I not fall in love? Jia Dongxu fell in love with this girl at first sight." Then he sighed and said: "It's a pity that he is from a rural area. Jia Dongxu fell in love with his mother but not. You heard that there was something going on in the yard. There’s a quarrel.”

When he first entered the courtyard, He Yuzhu felt that there was some noise, but it was a bit far away and he didn't hear clearly who was making the noise.

Now that Yan Bugui was reminded like this, he had a clear understanding in his heart, and he could clearly tell that it was Jia Zhang who was scolding his son.

He Yuzhu said: "Mr. Zhang is so powerful, why didn't Jia Dongxu listen to her this time?"

Knowing Mrs. Zhang's character, you know how miserable Jia Dongxu's life is at home every day.

He couldn't make the final decision on big or small matters, he handed over all the money he earned, and after Yi Zhonghai accepted his disciples, he was brainwashed every day.

"There are no imperfect parents in the world, only imperfect children."

He taught Jia Dongxu to be like a mama's boy. Jia Dongxu would not object to anything Mrs. Zhang usually said.

"Aren't you attracted?" Yan Bugui said: "Jia Dongxu wants that girl to be his wife, but his mother dislikes that she is from a rural area. Isn't this a quarrel?"

He Yuzhu said happily: "Then I have to go and have a look. It's really strange."

Yan Bugui pointed with his finger and said with a smile: "Only you dare to read the Jia family's jokes."

Mrs. Zhang not only scolded her son, but also scolded all the neighbors who were watching the fun and ran away. Therefore, when He Yuzhu walked into the middle courtyard, there was no crowd watching.

Except for Mrs. Zhang who was teaching her son in the courtyard, only the door of the east wing was open. Yi Zhonghai and Aunt Yi were sitting at the door, their faces a little blue.

Mrs. Zhang always scolded Jia Dongxu's ancestors for a while before saying, "I don't think so, so that girl can't come in."

"What's wrong? I think it's good." Jia Dongxu said aggrievedly.

Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she jumped up to three feet high: "If I say no, I can't marry a girl from the countryside? What kind of house will I build? What kind of sewing machine will I buy? Isn't all this money wasted?"

Then he greeted Jia Dongxu's eighteenth generation ancestors again.

Jia Dongxu was also livid with anger, but the girl fell in love with him from the moment he saw her, and she also fell in love with him.

I thought that when I came back and told my mother about this matter, there wouldn't be any trouble, but I didn't expect that Mrs. Zhang wouldn't agree with anything she heard that it was a girl from the countryside.

After scolding Mrs. Zhang, she said that Jia Dongxu was a country girl who was not worthy of her preparations.

The family's house was renovated, and Qian Datong's house was purchased. Not only that, but he also spent a lot of money to buy a sewing machine.

Everything was ready, Mrs. Zhang thought she could talk to a good girl in the city this time.

Unexpectedly, Yi Zhonghai cut the trouble quickly without telling him, so he found a girl from the countryside and arranged to meet Jia Dongxu.

Jia Dongxu is also short-sighted and has no long-term vision. He agrees when the girl is beautiful.

This made Mrs. Zhang very angry. She scolded Yi Zhonghai first, and then she got sulky when she returned to her room.

Yi Zhonghai can run, but where can Jia Dongxu run?He could only be scolded by Granny Zhang.

He Yuzhu stood at the entrance of the central courtyard and listened for a while, and then learned the truth from Zhang Peng's mouth.

There was a thought in my heart, could this blind date be Qin Huairu?

After all, they said she was a girl from Changhe.

Think about it, it's summer, and it's time for Jia Dongxu to get married.

I just didn't expect that Mrs. Zhang would object during the blind date. It seemed that this marriage had some twists and turns.

He Yuzhu watched for a while and understood the ins and outs of the matter. He didn't bother to talk to them and entered his home.

But Yi Zhonghai also followed.

"Zhuzi, you see that your brother Dongxu has been trained like this, why don't you hurry up and try to persuade him?"

He Yuzhu raised his eyebrows and said, "Why don't you go by yourself?"

Yi Zhonghai said sarcastically: "I went there just now, but I didn't tell you to stop. Why don't you go and give it a try?"

He Yuzhu said angrily: "Lao Yi, are you asking me to scold you?"

"How can you? Don't think of me so badly. You don't want to see your brother Dongxu being trained there, do you?"

"It's none of my business?" He Yuzhu said angrily.

He Yuzhu started to clean up the house and was too lazy to talk to Yi Zhonghai. The thief still wanted to intervene to break up the fight, but there was no way.

Seeing that He Yuzhu was not fooled, Yi Zhonghai did not mention the matter of trying to break up the fight, but said, "Zhuzhu, where is Yuzhu?"

"He's at his mother's house and doesn't want to come back."

Yi Zhonghai said: "Then I will prepare two dishes and we will have dinner together in the evening."

Then he said: "How about you cooking the hot dishes?"

He Yuzhu thought for a moment before nodding in agreement.

I asked for leave today, so I didn't come back with a lunch box. Since someone actually treated me, it would be free to eat if I didn't, and it wouldn't be free to eat if I did.

When cooking for them in the evening, He Yuzhu didn't show his full ability. After all, his rank was too high and he wasn't worthy of letting them eat well.

Through previous comparisons, we found that the cooking skills of ordinary housewives can reach the first-level level at most.

Only if the frying is particularly good can it reach the second level.

At present, He Yuzhu's Sichuan cuisine level has risen to level six. Even if he only uses three points of ability, he is much higher than ordinary people.

Including Jia Dongxu, the four of them ate together, and all three of them praised He Yuzhu's cooking skills.

He Yuzhu felt a little regretful. He should have lowered his level just now, but he didn't expect that his ability to make three-pointers would already be praised by them.

Jia Dongxu said angrily: "My mother feels the same way. That girl Qin Huairu is so beautiful. Why can't I like her?"

"Qin Huairu?" He Yuzhu asked in surprise.

The wheel of history is so magical. He Yuzhu thought that his butterfly wings were not beating hard enough.

Qin Huairu still met Jia Dongxu on a blind date.

Yi Zhonghai said: "Zhuzi, don't you know that today a co-worker introduced a girl to her. She is no worse than the Tian Xiu from before. She graduated from junior high school and is working part-time jobs. We have arranged to meet her today."

He Yuzhu asked: "Did you get the chance?"

Yi Zhonghai sighed:

"Both of them are attracted to each other. You have seen what happened today, but Sister-in-law Zhang disagrees and thinks Qin Huairu is a girl from the countryside."

He Yuzhu said: "Then don't agree, just go on a blind date."

Jia Dongxu said: "No, I just fell in love with her. I can't find such a beautiful one no matter how hard I look."

Jia Dongxu is usually a mama's boy, but this time he doesn't want to compromise with his mother on the matter of his marriage, so he was scolded by his mother tonight, but he is still holding his breath and does not plan to change his wife.

Yi Zhonghai said: "Zhuzi, do you have any good ideas?"

Now Yi Zhonghai can't see through He Yuzhu. Sometimes he is so shrewd that he fools him, and sometimes he seems a little naive and careless.

He Yuzhu smiled, and then said: "Isn't this matter difficult to handle? Isn't it enough to turn raw rice into cooked rice?"

"What?" The remaining three people shouted in unison.
