After working a whole day, it’s finally time to get off work.
Master Li knew the situation of He Yuzhu's family, so he asked He Yuzhu to pack up the half chicken that the customer had not finished and take it back. He Yuzhu did not refuse. After all, it was what the customer had left, and it was not considered as taking the restaurant's things privately. Moreover, the public-private partnership had not yet started, so he was not too particular about this.
He Yuzhu happily followed He Yumo out of the gate of Hongbin Building. Today was He Yumo's first day at work. Although there was no salary and only food was provided, being able to take this step was already a big progress.
Besides, He Yumo performed very well in the restaurant today. At least the vegetables he cut were perfectly cut. He seemed to have the potential to be a chef! In order to celebrate his brother's first day at work, when they reached the entrance of the alley, He Yuzhu decided to let He Yumo go back first.
I rushed to the market to buy some eggs, and then fried some leeks and eggs in the evening as an extra meal to celebrate for my brother!
He Yumo was also anxious to go home. She had left Xiao Yushui with the deaf old lady for the whole day. She wondered if the little girl would
Without crying, thinking this, he walked quickly towards home!
As soon as I reached the door of my house, I saw the deaf old lady holding Xiao Yu Shui's hand and looking out the door!
He rushed over when he saw He Yumo from a distance.
"Brother Mozi, why did you come back just now? Yu Shui almost missed you guys!"
He Yumo picked up Xiao Yu Shui and kissed her on the little face.
"Brother Mozi is back! Were you good at Madam's house today?"
"This little girl is so well-behaved! She didn't cry or make a fuss the whole day. Now, as the sun is setting and other people's families are coming back from get off work, she begs me to come to the door to greet you!" Although the deaf old lady is mean to others, she is very fond of Xiao Yushui, a 5-year-old baby!
"Thank you so much, old lady! Old lady, you haven't had dinner yet! Why don't you come to my house and have something to eat with me?"
"No need! I have prepared dinner!" After saying that, he clapped his hands and went back with a hunched back!
Looking at the deaf old lady's back as she walked away, He Yumo felt a little moved. Although this deaf old lady had a strange temper, she had a good heart!
Compared to the other people in the yard, she is indeed much better! Now she looks a bit like my grandmother in my previous life! If I have the conditions in the future, I will definitely treat her better!
"Brother Mozi, where is Brother Zhuzi? Why can't I see him?" Xiao Yushui looked around and saw that there was no one behind He Yumo, so she asked in a baby voice.
"Brother Zhuzi is going to buy some delicious food! Let's go! Xiao Yushui must be starving! Brother will take you to eat something delicious first!"
After saying that, he led the rain into the house!
After a while, He Yuzhu came back with a bag of eggs and a small sugar man in his hand. This was a reward for Xiao Yushui!
I also bought ten kilograms of corn flour, which I planned to give to the deaf old lady. After all, school can only start next year with the rain. During this period, I may have to trouble the deaf old lady to take care of me. It is only right that I send some food to the old lady from time to time!
It was still 1950, and you didn't need to use food stamps to buy things. As long as you had money, you could buy them. It was quite convenient. The actual use of food stamps didn't start until the second half of 1955.
However, inflation was severe at the time, and the first set of currency was still in use, all of which had super large denominations, with denominations of 10,000 yuan and 50,000 yuan per piece.
He Yuzhu spent tens of thousands of yuan to buy these things, but don’t be scared by the amount. Ten thousand yuan at this time is equivalent to one yuan later.
(In March 1955, the People's Bank of China began to print the second set of RMB, replacing the old currency (the first set) with the new currency (the second set) in circulation, and stipulated that the exchange rate between the new and old currency was 1:1, that is, 1 yuan of new currency was equal to 1 yuan of old currency. This currency later became the denomination we are familiar with.)
"Brother, you're back!"
"Well! Little Yushui, look what I brought you!" He Yuzhu waved the little sugar man in front of He Yushui, and the little girl's eyes lit up!
Children at this age don’t have much to eat, so a small sugar man is a very good snack!
Sure enough, when He Yushui saw the little sugar man, she clapped her hands happily: "There's a sugar man to eat! Brother is so nice!"
After saying that, he happily picked up the little sugar man and was about to put it to his mouth, but suddenly his little head seemed to remember something and stopped.
"Why don't you eat anymore?" He Yumo asked curiously.
"Brother Zhuzi and Brother Mozi, eat a few bites first, then Yushui!"
When He Yumo and He Yuzhu heard this, they looked at each other and thought, this little sister is really sensible!
"The brothers have just eaten. This is for Yu Shui. Eat it quickly, it will melt soon!" He Yumo touched He Yu Shui's head and said gently!
Only then did He Yushui start licking it with peace of mind.
"Brother, have you bought the eggs? Otherwise, I will cook dinner tonight!" He Yumo suddenly thought that he could not miss any opportunity to improve his cooking skills, so he spoke.
He had seen Chef Li cook scrambled eggs with chives in the restaurant today, and he already knew all the steps for this dish clearly.
"Can you do it?" He Yuzhu asked a little worriedly. Although He Yumo cut vegetables very well in the hotel kitchen today, cooking is different from cutting vegetables. The control of heat, how much oil and salt to put, and to what degree to stir-fry, all these require some care!
My younger brother has never cooked before!
