"Hey, Baoying, didn't I tell you to stop waiting outside? Why are you standing outside in this cold weather?"
Yan Bugui was talking enthusiastically when he was suddenly interrupted by He Yuzhu. Only then did he realize that they had arrived at the door of Deng Baoying's house, so he quickly stopped.
"Who said I was waiting for you? I was bored at home and came out for a walk."
When Deng Baoying saw the visitor, she couldn't hide the smile on her face, but she still liked to talk harshly.
When He Yuzhu saw Deng Baoying's tough talk, he always thought of Lou Xiao'e and always liked to tease her, so he said:
"Okay, then you hang around outside, and I'll go in and cook first. If the meal isn't ready, you're not allowed to come in!"
"Huh! I'm tired of shopping now and want to go home. I want to go in now. You can't control it. I'll piss you off and piss you off..."
Not to be outdone, Deng Baoying made a face at He Yuzhu and skipped towards the courtyard.
Yanbu Gui on the side was also smiling when he saw He Yuzhu, and he felt happy in his heart. If He Yuzhu could succeed with Deng Baoying, he would be the first to succeed.
The two of them had been here for several days, so everyone at the door knew each other, and the two of them walked to the door of Deng Baoying's house with ease.
He Yuzhu greeted Father and Mother Deng and went directly into the kitchen. At this time, Deng Baoying was already waiting inside.
"Chef He, what are you going to cook today? What do you need me to cook?"
He Yuzhu was frightened when he heard Deng Baoying's words. He took her to cook for the past few days, but the cooking time could not keep up with the time to deal with her aftermath.
Breaking the bowl is the next best thing. Cutting vegetables with your hands is okay, at least it is relatively simple to handle.
But Deng Baoying was too out of her mind. After hearing He Yuzhu say that a salt-baked egg was delicious, she learned that salt, aniseed and eggs were enough, so she just threw everything into the pot.
He also tried his best to stuff firewood into the stove. When the eggs exploded, the lid of the pot almost flew off.
This girl didn't know anything about the kitchen, but she was very brave. As soon as the eggs were fried in the pot, she immediately opened the lid with her bare hands.
Fortunately, He Yuzhu had quick eyesight and quick hands, and he hugged the person and pulled her aside, otherwise the egg would have exploded on her face, which would have been really terrible.
Speaking of yesterday, He Yuzhu brought a bottle of hot sauce, which he specially made years ago. Thinking of the need for yesterday's dishes, Deng Baoying's family didn't have any, so he brought it directly.
Anyone who has cooked knows that this hot sauce has a lot of gas in the bottle due to fermentation, so you must be extra careful when opening the can and deflate slowly.
As a result, Deng Baoying took advantage of it and unscrewed it directly. As you can imagine, the hot sauce rushed to the ceiling, let alone the walls and the floor.
Fortunately, she was able to dodge quickly, so she only had some spray on her clothes, otherwise it would have been all over her head and face.
That’s why He Yuzhu directly refused this time:
"You don't need to do anything today. You can just watch from the side. Your hands are clearly not those of a cook. No matter how much you learn, it will be in vain."
As soon as Deng Baoying heard that He Yuzhu disliked him, he immediately ignored the defense between men and women and stepped forward to grab He Yuzhu's hand, looking at it and saying:
"Don't you only have five fingers? As a cook, can you still read your hands?"
As he spoke, he also picked up his hand to compare, but after looking at it for a long time, he didn't find anything wrong. When he looked back, He Yuzhu was laughing so hard that he could hardly hold back, and said angrily:
"You're playing tricks on me again!"
He Yuzhu looked at Deng Baoying's furious look and made nonsense:
"I'm really not kidding you. Look at my hands. My fingers are thick and my palms are thick. It makes me strong when I lift a spoon.
This dish is delicious, but your hands, your fingers are so thin, and your arms are so thin, there is no strength in them.
And I am a cook, which has a long history. Our ancestors also did everything but failed, and finally met a fortune teller by chance.
Tell our ancestors that you can definitely be a cook, so we can pass it down from generation to generation. This is all from a source, and it is not done casually."
Deng Baoying was frightened by He Yuzhu for a moment. Then he looked at their hands carefully and found that it was indeed what Yuzhu said. His fingers were thick and short.
After looking at He Yuzhu's serious expression, it didn't look like he was lying. Then he gave up the idea of taking action and chatted with He Yuzhu.
"Brother Zhuzi, as for that fortune teller, can he really tell that accurately?"
After Deng Baoying finished speaking and saw He Yuzhu nodding, he asked again:
"Then do you know any fortune tellers?"
He Yuzhu was stunned when he heard this. He just said it casually. Unexpectedly, this little girl took it seriously, so he asked with a smile:
"You still want to tell fortunes? Tell me what you want to tell. I think I'm older than you, so I can tell you a few words."
Deng Baoying lowered her head and thought for a long time, then blushed and said sheepishly:
"As a girl, asking this would seem deviant, and some people might stigmatize me...but...I really want to know..."
When He Yuzhu saw her troubled expression, he felt relieved and said bluntly:
"You want to ask about marriage, right?"
Deng Baoying was stunned when she heard this, and blurted out, "How do you know?" After saying that, she felt embarrassed again, and her pretty face turned even crimson.
After a long while, he finally made up his mind and said:
"Then... let me tell you directly, that is... what is good for your parents and what is good for you, how should you choose?"
This question made He Yuzhu immediately think of Lou Xiao'e. Lou Xiao'e married someone her parents thought was good, but was betrayed by Xu Damao.
Of course, this does not rule out the fact that the two have no children, but even if the two have children, given Xu Damao's urinary temperament, he will probably betray Lou Xiao'e.
The first person I think is good is Qin Jingru. Qin Jingru is not bad in nature, but she is stupid and has no independent opinion. She has done a lot of evil following Xu Damao.
Then there is Yu Haitang. As the main force of the factory's propaganda department, Yu Haitang made a lot of money through that power when the times were raging.
She also wished that her family would be destroyed, otherwise she would not have enough money to open a shop and do business in the future.
Then there was Qin Huairu. If he hadn't known about Qin Huairu's plans for him later, I'm afraid he would have thought Qin Huairu was good until his death.
After all, Qin Huairu took care of him in life, which can be regarded as taking him as his God. She washed his feet and mended him.
Then there was Lou Xiao'e, the only warmth in his previous life. Lou Xiao'e was beautiful, nurturing, and sincere to him. Most importantly, she gave him a son against all odds.
The past events of his past life were playing in his mind like a movie, and he had mixed feelings for a moment. Deng Baoying called him several times from the side before he came back to his senses.
"Brother Zhuzhu, what are you thinking? Are you laughing at me for being shameless, a girl asking these questions?"
Looking at the innocent and lovely Deng Baoying in front of him, He Yuzhu smiled and said:
"How could it be? It's just that the question you asked reminded me of something.
But I really can’t answer this question for you. After all, marriage is a lifelong event. Is it good to live with one person...
I think it's like the shoes you wear on your feet. Only your own feet know whether they fit well and are comfortable.
However, whether it is what your parents think is good or what you think is good, the most important thing is what the person’s character is like.”
