Chapter 35

Seeing Shazhu threw down the big spoon in humiliation and returned to the kitchen with a gloomy face.

Ma Hua walked to the window nervously, replacing Seeing Shazhu and picking up the big spoon for weighing food.

This made Fatty, who was also an apprentice, feel jealous. He walked to Seeing Shazhu’s side and said sarcastically: "Master, Ma Hua is not what he used to be; Director Cao values him quite a bit."

Seeing Shazhu said with a gloomy face: "Hmph, I think this little rabbit Ma Hua wants to be a traitor."

Liu Lan shouted with a rag: "Seeing Shazhu, if you’re not serving food, come and clean up; everyone is busy, you can’t slack off."

Seeing Shazhu shouted impatiently: "What’s there to clean up in the kitchen."

Ma Liang said sternly: "Kitchen hygiene is the first principle of safe production. To ensure the safety of workers’ meals, the kitchen must be kept clean and tidy at all times. This is a hygiene management system personally formulated by Director Cao. Master He might not understand it since he just returned to the kitchen, but he must comply, and then strengthen learning to improve service awareness and safety awareness."

Seeing Shazhu said with disdain: "Hey! Ma Liang, who do you think you are to put on airs in front of me!"

Cao Cao Weiguo walked over with a cold face: "Ma Liang is now the group leader in charge of canteen hygiene. Master He, do you have any opinions?"

Seeing Shazhu’s face looked ugly as he clenched his fists, holding back a breath of frustration: "No opinion."

Cao Cao Weiguo said: "If you have no opinion, then please Master He actively cooperate with Group Leader Ma’s work, do a good job of kitchen cleaning, and follow hygiene standards."

Seeing Shazhu said stifledly: "Got it."

Cao Cao Weiguo went to clean the kitchen utensils with a cold face, and Ma Liang triumphantly directed Seeing Shazhu to wipe the stove.

Liu Lan and others secretly mocked Seeing Shazhu, who was obedient, and looked at Cao Cao Weiguo with even more admiration.

Seeing Shazhu used to be a kitchen bully, relying on his good cooking skills to not even put the director in his eyes.

Look at him now; as soon as Deputy Director Cao came forward, Seeing Shazhu became obedient.

You really can’t judge a person by their appearance, and you can’t measure the sea with a bucket.

Cao Cao Weiguo is usually kind to everyone, but I didn’t expect his methods to be so tough.

I really don’t know what means he used to tame the arrogant Seeing Shazhu. ===== CHAPTER 64 =====

Sihe Academy

Tomorrow is Sunday, which is also the day for the blind date.

Thinking of the blind date, Cao Cao Weiguo was both nervous and expectant.

He went to the vegetable market with a show of pretense, then returned to the Sihe Academy carrying chicken, duck, and pork.

"Whoa! Cao Weiguo, are you not planning to live anymore!"

"Chicken and duck!"

"Such a big piece of pork, it must be seven or eight catties!"

"Cao Weiguo, are relatives coming tomorrow?"

The neighbors stared greedily at the chicken, duck, and pork hanging on Cao Cao Weiguo’s bicycle.

Cao Cao Weiguo’s life is really getting more and more prosperous.

Bringing back chicken, duck, and pork all at once—it’s more abundant than the ingredients they have for the New Year.

The Third Uncle stood in the courtyard, feeling heartache, full of complaints that Yu Yu Haitang didn’t know quality.

Otherwise, he would have a share of this chicken, duck, and pork.

The First Uncle stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Cao Cao Weiguo with deep eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

Cao Cao Weiguo didn’t talk much to the neighbors, brushed them off a few times, and walked home without stopping.

These neighbors might not have bad intentions, but they all have their own calculations.

Cao Cao Weiguo doesn’t have the mind to save the world; he just wants to live his own life.

Back home, Cao Cao Weiguo started tidying up the room and cleaning carefully.

Qin Qin Huairu walked into the room with a "warm heart" and diligently picked up the rag in the basin to wipe the furniture.

"Sister Qin, I can do these chores myself."

"You’re a big man; you’re not cut out for housework."

"Go do whatever you need to do; I’ll have your house clean and tidy in a little while."

"When your blind date partner comes tomorrow and sees a clean and tidy room, she’ll definitely like it."

Looking at the nimble Qin Qin Huairu, Cao Cao Weiguo couldn’t help but soften his heart.

This Qin Qin Huairu values filial piety, is capable, and is devoted to her children.

In terms of character alone, Qin Qin Huairu has aspects that make people respect her.

It’s just that in some aspects and at some times, she is too selfish and too ruthless.

With Qin Qin Huairu cleaning the room, Cao Cao Weiguo, who was freed up, walked into the kitchen.

He took a fish out of the washbasin and started cooking.

In a little while, a rich aroma filled the whole room.

"So fragrant!"

Smelling the fragrance, Qin Qin Huairu walked toward the kitchen, swallowing her saliva.

Although Seeing Shazhu returned to the kitchen, his status was far from what it used to be.

Although he could bring back lunch boxes, they were all green vegetables without oil.

The starving Qin Qin Huairu smelled the fragrance, and her soul was hooked.

"Ah!"

Just as she walked into the kitchen, Cao Cao Weiguo turned around suddenly.

The two collided suddenly, causing a sudden accident.

Caught off guard, Qin Qin Huairu was about to fall backward, and Cao Cao Weiguo hurriedly reached out to grab Qin Qin Huairu’s arm.

"Oh my!"

Pulled by the sudden force, Qin Qin Huairu fell into Cao Cao Weiguo’s arms.

"Cao Weiguo! Let me go quickly!"

The hot, masculine aura made Qin Qin Huairu’s cheeks flush red.

Flustered, she patted Cao Cao Weiguo’s shoulder.

Cao Cao Weiguo felt the softness pressing against his chest and couldn’t help but feel hot in his heart.

After being patted by Qin Qin Huairu a few times, he came to his senses and let go, stepping back awkwardly.

"Sister Qin, why didn’t you make a sound when you walked?"

Qin Qin Huairu, whose whole body was soft, glared at Cao Cao Weiguo reproachfully: "It was clearly you who turned around suddenly and scared me."

Qin Qin Huairu’s flushed face made Cao Cao Weiguo feel itchy and restless.

A charming young woman like Qin Qin Huairu, with her plump figure and beautiful appearance, is really attractive.

It’s no wonder she can attract so many bees and butterflies.

"What are you making? It smells so good."

Qin Qin Huairu sniffed the fragrance and walked to the stove, her eyes fixed on the pot of fish soup.

"Just a simple winter bamboo shoot and carp soup."

Looking at Qin Qin Huairu, who was swallowing her saliva, and then at the living room that had been cleaned,

Cao Cao Weiguo took a large bowl from the cupboard and used a spoon to fill it with fish soup.

"Sister Qin, you worked hard helping me clean the room. Take this bowl of fish soup back to eat."

Looking at the bowl of fish soup placed in front of her, Qin Qin Huairu was full of joy.

This bowl of fish soup had several pieces of fish and quite a few winter bamboo shoots.

"Thank you, Cao Weiguo. Sister Qin is going back; I’ll return the bowl to you tomorrow."

Qin Qin Huairu happily carried the fish soup home.

The aroma of the fish soup immediately made Bang Geng and Jia Jia Zhangshi open their eyes.

"Mom, what are you carrying? It smells so good!"

Bang Geng ran to Qin Qin Huairu’s side, drooling, his eyes fixed on the large bowl without blinking.

"You guys are in for a treat today."

"Fish soup! There’s fish meat inside too!"

Qin Qin Huairu put the basin on the table, and Bang Geng’s eyes turned green.

"Qin Qin Huairu, where did this fish soup come from?"

Jia Jia Zhangshi swallowed her saliva, her eyes fierce as she asked sharply. ===== CHAPTER 65 =====
