Chapter 121 Trivial Events Ago
In the busy schedule, time flies by. There are not many days left until the Chinese New Year.
He Yuzhu's work is also busier than before, because the New Year is approaching, and the logistics director Wang is looking for connections everywhere in order to distribute things for the New Year. Treating guests to dinner is essential. This also made He Yuzhu busy.
He Yuzhu has been working overtime at night for almost a month to prepare banquets. He stayed in the bureau until very late and couldn't go home until the banquet was almost over.
He Yuzhu was exhausted physically and mentally, with a tired look on his face. After all these years of pampering, I have never been so busy. Suddenly I stayed up like this for a month and was seriously sleep deprived. It’s a bit too much.
Finally, nothing happened at night. Director Zhao came over at noon and said, "Zhuzhu, nothing happened tonight. I see that you are very tired after this month, so don't go to work in the afternoon. Go back early and take a rest."
He Yuzhu: "I'm going back now, what should I do for dinner?"
Director Zhao: "Let the big kitchen cook dinner. It's fine for just one or two meals. Otherwise, it won't be good if I tire you out again."
He Yuzhu: "That's okay. I'll pack up and go back."
Director Zhao: "Okay. Go back and rest early."
After explaining the kitchen work, He Yuzhu went home early.
Song Jinfeng was playing with Yu Yu and coaxing Xiao Ping An when he saw He Yuzhu coming back early: "Why are you back so early today? There is no reception banquet tonight?"
After He Yuzhu entered the house, he took off his cotton-padded jacket and said, "Yes, it's fine tonight. I have been busy for several days and I can finally take a rest."
Song Jinfeng took He Yuzhu's cotton-padded jacket and hung it on the hanger: "You must be tired these days. Why don't you go to bed and lie down to rest. I'll call you when it's time to eat."
He Yuzhu: "No need. I'll just lie down on the deck chair. Yu Yu will drag the deck chair over for my brother."
He Yuzhu walked to Xiaopingan, picked him up and kissed him: "Oh, my good son. Do you miss your daddy?"
Yu Yu dragged the lounge chair over and put it next to the fireplace. When he saw Xiao Ping An struggling in He Yuzhu's arms, about to cry, he quickly stepped forward and took it over: "Brother, give Xiao Ping An to me. You'd better rest while you go." "
He Yuzhu: "You bastard, you don't want to be close to your father at all."
Song Jinfeng took out a quilt from the room and said, "You haven't played with him for a long time. It would be strange for him to kiss you. Take a rest quickly."
He Yuzhu lay down on the recliner to rest, listening to the radio and chatting with Song Jinfeng and Yuyu, and fell asleep unknowingly.
In the evening, Song Jinfeng and Yu Yu prepared dinner before waking He Yuzhu to eat.
He Yuzhu didn't sleep enough. After eating, he went back to the house to continue sleeping.
The next day, He Yuzhu had a good night's sleep, and the physical fatigue of the past few days was gone. I woke up feeling energetic.
After breakfast, we went to the city bureau canteen. When I entered the door, I ran into Director Zhao.
Director Zhao: "Hey, Zhuzi, you are in good spirits today."
He Yuzhu: "It's not bad. I rested for an afternoon and felt better."
Director Zhao: "That's good. You're going to fall. I really don't know what to do this year."
He Yuzhu: "Don't worry, director, I will definitely not fall. I will persist until the end."
Director Zhao: "Don't work too hard. I transferred Master Yang from the big kitchen to you. Give him all the work and ask him to help you share more."
Master Yang, who is in the big kitchen, is in his 40s and is a level 7 cook. He is one of the two best chefs in the big kitchen.
He Yuzhu: "If you transfer Master Yang over, what should we do in the big kitchen? Are you busy? Come over? Don't you want to argue?"
Director Zhao: "Do you have any opinions? If you have any opinions, you have to keep it to yourself. Okay, you don't have to worry about that. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
He Yuzhu: "Okay. Goodbye, director."
He Yuzhu waited for Director Zhao to leave before turning around and entering the cafeteria. When He Yuzhu came to the kitchen, he saw Master Yang.
He Yuzhu hurried forward to say hello. After all, he was here to help: "Master Yang. I'm going to trouble you for a while."
Master Yang: "Master He is too polite. I would also like to ask Master He for some advice."
He Yuzhu: "Learn from each other."
With Master Yang's help, He Yuzhu doesn't need to give instructions for the work in the kitchen, Master Yang can arrange it properly. He Yuzhu was also happy and relaxed. Sitting aside, drinking tea.
For lunch, He Yuzhu only needs to cook and does not need to worry about anything else. Work is much easier than before.
In the afternoon, Zhou Jianye suddenly came to the door: "Zhuzi."
He Yuzhu came out of the kitchen when he saw it was Zhou Jianye, and the two of them came to the back of the kitchen.
He Yuzhu: "What do you want from me?"
Zhou Jianye: "I'm going hunting in a few days, will you go?"
He Yuzhu: "Why do you think of hunting again? Didn't I tell you last time that entering the mountains is too dangerous. Don't get out."
Zhou Jianye: "I know. This time is different. This time I found an old hunter as a guide. The people who go there are all good ones. How about it, do you want to go?"
When He Yuzhu heard that he was a good hunter, he wanted to go, but he didn't have time. He said frustratedly: "I want to go too, but I don't have time. I'm almost too busy right now. How can I have time to hunt? You go ahead. I’ll talk about it next time when I have time.”
Zhou Jianye: "Okay. Let's talk about it next time. When you come back, you have to help me deal with it."
He Yuzhu: "That's no problem. If you find something good, don't forget to get it back."
Zhou Jianye: "I will try my best to do this. There are many people going, all with good backgrounds, and no shortage of money."
He Yuzhu: "Just do your best and pay attention to safety. Don't risk your life just for some meat."
Zhou Jianye: "I know. Okay, I'm leaving first. I will stay in the mountains for several days this time, so I have to prepare some things."
After sending Zhou Jianye away, He Yuzhu returned to the kitchen. As soon as I sat down and took a sip of tea, Director Zhao came.
Yes, I have to work overtime again tonight.
He Yuzhu: "Director, are there any entertainment tonight?"
Director Zhao: "Yes, let's get ready. What we are hosting tonight is related to whether we can eat meat during the Chinese New Year."
He Yuzhu: "Who is it? So powerful? He still cares about our eating meat."
Director Zhao: "From the meat factory. Do you think it affects whether we can eat meat during the Chinese New Year?"
He Yuzhu: "Well. It can indeed determine whether we can eat meat."
Director Zhao: "So, it's up to you whether you can eat meat tonight. Hurry up and take someone to the warehouse to get the ingredients."
He Yuzhu: "Okay."
He Yuzhu took people to the warehouse and picked out the ingredients for the evening.
In the evening, Director Wang came with several people, and not long after, the director and others also arrived. It seems that this person is of a high level.
Director Zhao came to the kitchen to order the food: "Zhuzhu, is it ready? Everyone is here."
He Yuzhu: "Okay, it's time to serve."
One after another delicious dishes were brought to the table under the leadership of Director Zhao.
After serving the food, Director Zhao returned to the kitchen.
He Yuzhu handed Director Zhao a cigarette: "Director, who is here? Why are the Director and others here too?"
Director Zhao: "The leaders of the meat processing factory. The director and deputy directors are here. Can't the director accompany us? We, Director Wang, have the ability. Ordinary people can't hire them."
He Yuzhu: "That's right. Meat joint factories are very popular now. If you want to eat meat, you have to look at people's faces."
