Siheyuan, the opening gun is aimed at Yi Zhonghai

Chapter 283 Yu Haitang

Through He Daqing's persuasion, He Yuzhu deeply realized his mistakes and decided to keep his distance from Qin Huairu as much as possible in the future. However, his carefree personality also destined him to not admit his mistakes to Yang Xiaoman in time.

The next day, Yu Haitang went to the Siheyuan for a visit and stayed at Yan Fugui's house for dinner in the evening.

At the dinner table, Yan Fugui used serving chopsticks to distribute food to everyone, which made Yu Haitang feel incredible.

Then something even more outrageous happened. At the dinner table, Yan Fugui actually asked Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li to pay for their living expenses.

"Jie Cheng, the price of food has increased again this month, so you and Yu Li's food expenses will have to be increased by one yuan each..."

Originally, Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li's food allowance was 20 yuan per month, which was already excessive. Now it is 22 yuan per month, which Yan Jiecheng cannot accept. He said with a gloomy face: "Dad, we already pay 20 yuan per month. Even if the price of food increases, 20 yuan is enough. You want to increase the food allowance now, which is a bit too much."

Yan Fugui said, "What do you mean by enough? You don't run a household, so you don't know how expensive the materials, rice, oil and salt are. Corn flour has risen to 7 cents now. When the food allowance was 20 yuan before, corn flour was 4 cents, which is a full increase of 3 cents. An increase of one yuan per person in the food allowance is considered to take care of you two young people. Besides, is 2 yuan a month for food allowance high? You don't have to worry about anything when you come back from work, and there are ready-made meals. Do other young people have this treatment? I won't say more about this. Even if you cook separately, it will cost more than 7 yuan a month. Your mother works hard to cook for you for a month, and she only earns 20 or 15 yuan from you. Isn't it much? 2 or 3 yuan means you ask others to cook for you. Can others cook for you?"

Yan Jiecheng was speechless after being rebuked by Yan Fugui. Yu Li felt a little embarrassed. She thought that one or two dollars was nothing, but Yan Fugui saying this in front of Yu Haitang made her feel very uncomfortable.

Yu Haitang also felt embarrassed and thought that her sister's father-in-law was too calculating.

Besides, it would be too embarrassing for my sister and brother-in-law to do that in front of her!

The meal was finished in such an awkward atmosphere. Yu Haitang had originally planned to stay at Yu Li's house, but encountering this kind of thing, in order to avoid embarrassing her sister, she decided to stay at He Yuzhu's house for the night.

In this yard, she is more familiar with He Yuzhu, and He Yuzhu has two rooms.

When He Yuzhu learned of Yu Haitang's request, he of course disagreed and said that he could send Yu Haitang home.

But Yu Haitang said that the road from the south to the east of the city was very unsafe at night. As a girl, she didn't mind living in He Yuzhu's house, so why was He Yuzhu, a grown man, so hesitant?

He Yuzhu was provoked by her and agreed to it for some unknown reason, completely forgetting what He Daqing had advised him yesterday.

Before going to bed, Yu Haitang said she felt bored, so He Yuzhu found a gramophone and played some songs.

The song is "Symphony of Fate".

Yu Haitang felt that He Yuzhu was a person with substance, and said eloquently: "This piece of music is called Symphony No. 1804. It was composed in when Beethoven was completely deaf and his lover left him due to family reasons. His life was at its lowest point, but he was unwilling to resign himself to his fate. He said that even though he was deaf, he could still compose music. This piece of music is his cry to fate and his unyielding strength."

Although He Yuzhu didn't understand what Yu Haitang was saying at all, he didn't want to show his weakness in front of Yu Haitang, so he echoed, "The journey of life is not always smooth. It may be bumpy or hardworking. Falling down is not terrible. What is terrible is not having the courage to stand up. Fate is just an excuse for the weak and a whetstone for the strong..."

He himself could not say this, but he heard it from the wife of the big boss.

After listening to what He Yuzhu said, Yu Haitang's beautiful big eyes sparkled and she felt that He Yuzhu was her soulmate.

And this passage is so well said, as if it were her shadow.

Isn't that what her life has been like? Although she couldn't give any examples, she was at the bottom of her life right now, and she believed that with her talent she would be able to get out of the predicament.

That night, they discussed literature, music, and ideals together, and before they knew it, it was very late.

He Yuzhu said, "It's late, go and have some rest."

Yu Haitang was still a little unsatisfied. "I never thought that as a cook you would have such insight and taste. Brother He, can I come to your place often to listen to music in the future?"

He Yuzhu wanted to refuse, but felt that refusing would seem petty, so he had to bite the bullet and agree, "Okay, you're welcome anytime."

Yu Haitang smiled and said, "Hehe, you are very interesting."

The next morning, He Yuzhu specially prepared breakfast for Yu Haitang. Worried that the food might not suit Yu Haitang's appetite, he prepared many different dishes.

Yu Haitang was very touched by this. "Brother He, you are indeed a cultured cook. Even breakfast is so exquisite."

He Yuzhu likes to be praised the most. After being praised by Yu Haitang, his tail almost rose to the sky. "Oh, this is nothing. I was worried that you wouldn't be used to it."

Yu Haitang blushed, "Brother He, you are so kind. This is already very good. These are all my favorites."

He Yuzhu's face lit up with joy. "As long as it suits your taste, go ahead and eat it. Don't be polite."

Yu Haitang said, "Brother He, don't just take care of me, eat too."

"Well, let's eat it right away."

The two of them ate their meal while chatting about random things.

Suddenly Yu Haitang changed the subject and asked, "Brother He, do you have a partner?"

He Yuzhu wanted to answer all her questions, but suddenly he realized that no matter whether it was Qin Huairu, Qin Jingru, or Yu Haitang, every girl seemed to be more gentle and considerate than Yang Xiaoman. He seemed... not to really like Yang Xiaoman, but more like they were just living together.

The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt about continuing to be with Yang Xiaoman, so he replied to Yu Haitang inexplicably, "No..."

Not to mention Yang Xiaoman, even if He Daqing or Zhou Zheng heard this, they would slap He Yuzhu in the face. However, only Yu Haitang heard it, and not only did she not blame He Yuzhu, she also gave He Yuzhu a nice smile.

"Oh, how can such an outstanding person like Brother He be single? It's such a pity."

He Yuzhu just smiled awkwardly and did not continue to respond to this topic. Instead, he asked Yu Haitang to have a good meal.

After having dinner at He Yuzhu's house, Yu Haitang said goodbye to He Yuzhu and left. He Yuzhu looked at Yu Haitang's back with mixed feelings. He thought, how good it would have been if he had met Qin Jingru or Yu Haitang at the beginning.

"Time is also fate..."
