Chapter 241 He Yuzhu buys things for his wife

A little after noon, the last soup was served. He Yuzhu finally had some free time. He Yuzhu found a chair, sat down and began to rest. At about 12:30, the chief engineer walked into the kitchen and said, "Master He, thank you so much for today!"

He Yuzhu said: "You're welcome. I just did what I should do."

The chief engineer asked, "Master He, can I still invite you to cook at my house in the future?!"

He Yuzhu said, "You want me to cook. Please go directly to our factory manager. He will arrange for me to come. If there is nothing else, I will leave first. Please tell our factory manager."

"Okay!" The chief engineer responded, took out a red envelope and gave it to He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu quickly declined, "I came to your house to cook today because it was a task assigned to me by the factory. Please take it back!"

The chief engineer and his wife felt a little embarrassed when they saw that He Yuzhu refused to accept it. He Yuzhu continued, "The dishes on the table over there are all served before the dishes are taken out of the pot. They can be heated up in the evening and eaten. Although they don't taste as good as they do right out of the pot, they are not much different."

"Thank you!" The chief engineer thanked He Yuzhu and then personally escorted He Yuzhu out the door.

A little after two o'clock in the afternoon, He Yuzhu returned to the steel mill. He Yuzhu had just found a place in the kitchen to sit down and drink a sip of water. Before he could fully recover, Li Huaian appeared in front of him. Li Huaian asked, "Zhuzi, when did you come back?!"

He Yuzhu replied, "I just got back too." Then he asked, "Director, what's the matter?!"

Li Huaian asked: "Zhu Zi, where have you been this morning?!"

He Yuzhu replied: "Where did I go? Ask Director Li directly."

"What do you mean?! You can't even ask?!" Li Huaian said with an unhappy expression on his face. Li Huaide, who just came in from outside, happened to hear the conversation between Li Huaian and He Yuzhu. His face instantly became long and he thought to himself: "What a useless person! It seems that he can't continue to be the canteen director."

"Zhu Zi, you're back? How did today's work go?!" Li Huaide adjusted his mindset and asked as he walked towards He Yuzhu's position.

He Yuzhu stood up hurriedly and said, "Today's task was completed quite well, and the other party is quite satisfied."

Li Huaide saw He Yuzhu's modesty and showed a satisfied smile on his face. Then he looked at Li Huaian and said, "Go and do your thing! I have something to say to He Yuzhu."

"Hey!" There is really a thing that conquers another. When Li Huaian saw Li Huaide, it was like a mouse seeing a cat. He responded obediently and left quickly.

After Li Huaian left, Li Huaide said, "Zhu Zi, don't take his words to heart."

Seeing that there was no one around, He Yuzhu said, "Brother Li, let's not judge by appearances. Even if Director Li Huaian is a bad person, we won't bother with him for your sake."

Li Huaide said, "The dish you cooked for lunch today stunned a large group of people. Before you even got back to the factory, people had already called you. They all wanted you to cook."

He Yuzhu said: "I am a brick in the factory. Wherever the factory wants me to go, I will go there!"

"You're great!" Li Huaide patted He Yuzhu's shoulder with satisfaction and said, "You've worked hard today, go back and rest early!" After that, Li Huaide took out a leave slip and gave it to He Yuzhu.

After Li Huaide left, He Yuzhu breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, "Playing tricks with them is more tiring than cooking ten tables of food!"

After leaving the steel mill, He Yuzhu rode his bicycle back slowly. Suddenly, He Yuzhu thought that he had not bought anything decent for his wife since getting married. In this day and age, let alone gold and silver jewelry, even if they were sold, no one dared to wear them. As if possessed by a ghost, He Yuzhu rode his bicycle to the department store. He Yuzhu parked his bicycle, paid the money, took a sign and turned to enter the department store.

After walking around the department store, He Yuzhu bought a Phoenix women's bicycle. After paying the money and holding the invoice, He Yuzhu pushed the bicycle out of the department store, took his own bicycle and went straight to the police station. Passing by a deserted place, He Yuzhu entered the supermarket space. He picked up a plum blossom women's gold watch from the space, put it in his pocket, and then left the space.

"Hey?! Master He, how come you have time to come here today?!" Just as He Yuzhu was pushing his bicycle into the police station, the voice of female police officer Du Lili rang out.

He Yuzhu said, "My wife's birthday is coming soon. I've been married for so long but I've never bought her anything nice. So today I bought her a bicycle."

Huang Ying heard the voices and walked out of the reception hall. Standing at the door, she asked with a smile, "Why did you think of buying me a bicycle?!"

He Yuzhu said, "Having a car will make it easier for you to get to and from get off work. It will also be more convenient for you to work." Then he urged, "Go and try it out. Are you satisfied?!"

Huang Ying took the bicycle and rode it, riding around the yard of the police station twice, saying, "Not bad!"

"As long as you are satisfied! Let's go and get the stamp!" After saying that, He Yuzhu took out the money and invoice.

Huang Ying didn't say anything, but she was very happy in her heart. She pushed her bicycle and followed He Yuzhu to the place where the stamp was made.

While stamping, He Yuzhu took out the box containing the watch from his pocket, put it into Huang Ying's hand, and said, "I saw your watch a few days ago and it seems to have some problems. Your work is inconvenient without a watch. Take a look at this watch, do you like it?!"

Huang Ying didn't take the box. Instead, she looked at He Yuzhu and asked, "You gave me a bicycle and a watch. Did you do something bad outside and buy me these things to please me?!"

He Yuzhu jumped up immediately like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and said, "Your words really hurt my heart! How could I, He Yuzhu, do something to let you down?! Since you don't want it, forget it! Just pretend I never bought it."

"You want to take something back after you took it out? No way!" Huang Ying grabbed the box from He Yuzhu's hand and opened it on the spot. A gold watch for women appeared in front of Huang Ying. Huang Ying took the watch out of the box and said as she looked at it, "This watch is really beautiful. It must be very expensive, right?!"

He Yuzhu turned his head away, pretending not to hear.

Huang Ying came back to her senses, quietly pushed He Yuzhu, took off the old watch on her wrist, and said, "Idiot, help me put it on!"

He Yuzhu looked at Huang Ying unhappily, and then put the new watch on her hand. Huang Ying smiled and said, "That's good enough."

After about half an hour, the bicycle was stamped. It was time for Huang Ying to get off work. He Yuzhu went back to the office to get his things, said hello to his colleagues, and left the police station with He Yuzhu.

He Ping walked up to Zhang Hu and asked, "What are you looking at?!"

Zhang Hu replied, "What else can I watch? Of course, I'll watch Huang Ying and He Yuzhu." Then he asked, "Didn't you go to a meeting? When did you come back?!"

"Just got back." He Ping opened his briefcase, took out a notepad and handed it to Zhang Hu, saying, "Take a look! This is the content of today's meeting. A new round of crackdown is about to begin. This time we have to work with the street office to crack down on the black market in our jurisdiction."
