Chapter 263 Fatty's Idea
He Yuzhu quietly watched Yi Zhonghai's back as he walked away. Although he had some thoughts in his mind, he chose to remain silent. After all, he did not intend to interfere too much in whether Yi Zhonghai was willing to wait.
After all, I clearly wanted to talk to him, but he didn't listen, so it had nothing to do with me. If he was waiting for me at the door, it also had nothing to do with me.
Time passed quickly, and when it was almost time to get off work, He Yuzhu called Ma Hua and Fatty to his side and said casually, "I'll leave this to you two. I have something urgent to deal with at home first."
Ma Hua and Fatty looked at each other. They knew very well that they would not dare to neglect their master's orders, so they nodded and said, "Okay, Master, go ahead!"
The fat man was originally very reluctant, secretly wondering why he was forced to work overtime. However, when he saw that He Yuzhu had nothing in his hands and did not bring back the mouth-watering lunch box as usual, a smile instantly broke out on his face.
You have to know that every time He Yuzhu said he was bringing leftovers, they were all prepared in advance. There was no leftovers at all. They were all good food. But who asked He Yuzhu to be the chef? The people in the kitchen naturally didn't dare to say anything and could only listen obediently.
Ma Hua, who was standing by, also noticed this detail. He was about to say something, but the quick-witted fat man covered his mouth. The fat man lowered his voice and warned, "Shh, that's enough, you kid, stop talking!"
After He Yuzhu left, Ma Hua struggled to break free from the fat man's hand, stared at him with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "Fatty, what are you doing? The master didn't bring back a lunch box today, don't you find it strange?"
The fat man chuckled and explained with a smug look, "Are you stupid? Since He Yuzhu didn't bring the lunch box back, it's a good deal for us! We can take it home and improve the food for our family. This is a great thing!"
After hearing the fat man's analysis, Ma Hua nodded in sudden enlightenment, thinking that it was indeed true, and said no more.
After all, He Yuzhu was not nice to his two disciples normally. He hid everything from them, and the two disciples didn't learn any skills at all.
He Yuzhu hurried out of the steel mill. Just after he walked a few steps, he suddenly slapped his forehead and cried out inwardly: "Oh no! How could I forget about this? I actually forgot to bring the vegetables!"
He originally wanted to turn around and go back to get it, but he changed his mind and stopped immediately: "No, I'm going to buy vegetables today, what vegetables should I bring? As for the deaf old lady in the backyard, just invite her over for dinner."
He Yuzhu now understood that it would be better not to bring lunch boxes to the Jia family. After all, they were heartless people, and they would not be grateful to him even if he brought lunch boxes back to them.
Thinking of this, He Yuzhu no longer hesitated and walked straight towards the vegetable market.
When the bell rang for the end of the workday at the steel mill, He Yuzhu had already arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative. At this time, the workers in the factory were walking out one after another.
Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu also came out of the factory together. Yi Zhonghai did not go home directly like the others, but stopped at the door, as if waiting for something. After a while, Qin Huairu walked up to him and asked curiously, "Uncle, why don't you go home?"
Yi Zhonghai smiled and said softly, "I plan to take advantage of this opportunity to teach He Yuzhu a lesson. We all live in the same courtyard and see each other all day long. It's not good for him to keep doing this!"
Qin Huairu naturally knew why Yi Zhonghai wanted to teach He Yuzhu a lesson, but she said nothing. She just nodded, said goodbye to Yi Zhonghai, and turned to walk home.
Yi Zhonghai looked at Qin Huairu's back, thinking that his plan must not fail. If it really failed, how would he live in the future?
Yi Zhonghai stood there, patiently waiting for He Yuzhu to appear. Time passed by, but after a long time, He Yuzhu was still nowhere to be seen.
Yi Zhonghai was almost getting impatient. After all, most of the workers in the steel mill had left, but He Yuzhu had not come out yet.
At this moment, Yi Zhonghai happened to meet Ma Hua who was walking out.
Yi Zhonghai hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Ma Hua, you are out now, why don't you see your master He Yuzhu?"
Ma Hua looked up and saw that it was Yi Zhonghai, and quickly replied: "Master Yi, you don't know, my master left here a long time ago!"
Hearing this news, Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but feel a little surprised and angry. He never expected that He Yuzhu would dare to stand him up and let him waste so much time waiting here. Yi Zhonghai became more and more angry, and without saying a word, he turned around and left angrily.
You have to know that He Yuzhu used to listen to Yi Zhonghai. How could he dare to stand him up? I must teach He Yuzhu a lesson when I go back.
At this moment, He Yuzhu was leisurely picking vegetables in the supply and marketing cooperative. He had no idea when Yi Zhonghai would return or what happened.
He Yuzhu knew that today was the first time he invited He Feng to dinner. He had to know that he had offended He Feng several times after He Feng came back, so he had to perform well today.
He Yuzhu bought a lot of dishes that he thought He Feng would like. After all, he had asked He Yushui in advance, and He Yushui said that He Feng liked these dishes.
He Yuzhu, who had finally finished shopping for groceries, walked slowly towards the courtyard with a full bag in his hand. When he stepped into the courtyard, he found that Yi Zhonghai had not returned yet.
However, Qin Huairu returned home early. When she saw He Yuzhu, she secretly wondered if Yi Zhonghai had already taught He Yuzhu a lesson, so he came back so leisurely. So, Qin Huairu greeted He Yuzhu with a smile on her face.
"Zhu Zi, we all live in the same courtyard, we are a real family!" Qin Huairu said earnestly.
He Yuzhu raised his head, looked at Qin Huairu, and responded: "Sister Qin, where is the old man? Why hasn't he come back yet?"
Qin Huairu was stunned and looked at He Yuzhu: "Zhuzi, didn't the uncle come to talk to you? How come you didn't see it?"
