d up and said."Haha. Yes, let’s go have a meal."The old master of Mount Yue also stood up and said.The two hosts, Mr. Shao Yu and the old master of Mount Yue, seeing everyone with heavy looks, got up...Chapter 366: Deathcamase
After Yunxi agreed, she suddenly felt a wave of relief. Xiao Yu's excellence had always given her a sense of unease and panic, so she didn't want to completely rely on him either. She wanted to have her own career as well, which is why despite knowing many people and being very wealthy, Xiao Yu still supported her in working as a minor bureaucrat in the ancient city. She hoped that this would help her become independent.
Seeing Yunxi's determined gaze, Xiao Yu's face showed a hint of surprise, but he soon seemed to understand Yunxi’s thoughts and firmly grabbed Yunxi's hand, knocking on his chest twice with a gentle smile forming on his face.
"Haha, fine then. Yunxi, as long as Uncle Song is alive, I promise you'll have no worries. Just do what you believe in!" When Song Hushan saw the determination in Yunxi's eyes, he gave her an appreciative glance and said with a light laugh.
If it were before, given his relationship with Xiao Yu, Song Hushan wouldn't mind if Xiao Yu found himself a minor bureaucrat or anyone else for that matter. But now things are different; now Xiao Yu is the son of his elder brother who has passed away, and they as uncles have to take responsibility.
Although they promised Xiao Yu’s stepmother that they wouldn't interfere with Xiao Yu's life nor make any decisions on his behalf, they would still watch over him and remind him if he goes astray. Especially since Yunxi is Xiao Yu's girlfriend, although there are no issues of family background or status, they hope that Xiao Yu's wife will be outstanding enough to match him.
Of course, they wouldn't interfere either, just as their elder brother wasn’t happy when others did so in the past and caused Xiao Yu and his stepmother so much suffering. Although they don’t know Yunxi well, it’s clear that both her and Xiao Yu are very fond of him.
With their elder sister-in-law's discerning eye and the outstanding achievements Xiao Yu has made at such a young age, Yunxi must have her unique qualities. But this doesn't prevent them from helping Yunxi become even more extraordinary.
Both Bai Jing and Director Li showed expressions of joy when they heard Yunxi agree to it. Given their close relationship with Xiao Yu, the tighter his connections with the Ministry of Health are, the better off she will be.
The task Li Changtian gave Director Li was simply to try and get Yunxi's agreement. Previously unaware that Xiao Yu’s girlfriend also worked in the health system, after today’s incident, instead of feeling regretful, Li Changtian felt somewhat relieved. Knowing that Xiao Yu's girlfriend is from the health system now makes it easier for him to build a relationship with Xiao Yu.
Seeing Yunxi agree and noticing Song Hushan and Zhang Dahai there as well, Bai Jing knew they shouldn't linger too long since she wasn’t an outsider. But since Director Li and Deputy Chief Gu are here, she couldn’t stay for much longer either.
"Uncle Teacher! Since everything is settled, we won't stay long. I still need to go back and see Tianlin!" Bai Jing stood up and said to Xiao Yu.
"Mm, okay. Tell your senior brother that I will visit him in a couple of days!" Xiao Yu nodded his head and said. Song Shushan and Zhang Dahuai came together now; there must be something going on, so Xiao Yu didn't keep Bai Jing around.
Seeing Bai Jing about to leave, Director Li and Chief Gu also stood up. Now Chief Gu had no idea what he should do either, but seeing that Xiao Yu hadn't mentioned him caused him some relief in his heart.
The reason why Director Li brought Chief Gu here was for him to apologize to Xiao Yu, but when he saw that Xiao Yu didn't pay any attention to this Chief Gu at all, he didn't even bring it up.
When Director Li looked at Chief Gu, he shook his head secretly and thought: This person is truly an unfortunate soul. What the chief did was very common practice in the ministry. But what's unlucky about him is that when he handled this matter, he provoked someone he shouldn't have, so one could imagine what kind of ending awaited him.
Bai Jing said goodbye to Xiao Yu and Director Li before walking out. Xiao Yu also stood up and followed them outside.
"Little Li, right Go back and tell Li Changtian that I've accepted his favor!" Song Shushan and Zhang Dahuai were sitting on the sofa without standing up, but when he saw Bai Jing and Director Li approaching the door, he said to Director Li.
"Yes, yes, I'll definitely pass it along!" Hearing Song Shushan's words, Director Li, who was walking, hesitated for a moment before showing extreme joy. He turned around and bowed repeatedly towards Song Shushan.
Xiao Yu escorted them to the villa entrance, waited until they left in their car, then returned to the villa.
"Big Brother, Uncle Song, why did you come so late Is there something" Xiao Yu sat down next to the two of them and asked.
“Hmm, it's a bit urgent. I didn't want to trouble you but there was no other way,” said Song Shushan with a nod.
"Oh, what is it Uncle Song, go ahead and say it! Between us, why would there be any talk of troubling each other" Upon hearing that something had happened between Song Shushan and Zhang Dahuai, Xiao Yu asked them.
"Well, it's like this………."
Hearing Xiao Yu's words, Song Hushan began to explain the situation to him.
It turned out that due to too many people attending Mr. Song's hundredth birthday celebration, the event was arranged in a ballroom at the conference hall. Moreover, there were quite a few veteran comrades who had traveled from afar to attend this celebration.
These veterans hadn't been able to enjoy canteen-style meals for years as they were living outside their hometowns. Therefore, they requested to have such a meal during this gathering.
Li Sujun was still robust but wouldn't prepare a canteen-style meal for them unless they went to the cafeteria where he worked. He would cook there because his establishment catered to people who wanted to enjoy such meals; however, outside of the cafeteria, few individuals were worthy enough to receive his cooking service.
When Li Sujun was in the military, after every battle or mission completion, he would prepare a large pot of canteen-style meal as a treat for himself and others.
However, since these veterans left Beijing or their military units, they hadn't tasted such meals again. This time when they arrived in Beijing, they planned to dine at the cafeteria twice but unfortunately, it was temporarily closed due to Mr. Song's birthday celebration.
The veterans were aware that Li Sujun wouldn't cook for them personally, so they approached Old Man Song and suggested not preparing fancy dishes but instead serving a canteen-style banquet to reminisce about their past life.
Old Man Song thought it over and agreed. He felt that cooking fancy dishes was less appealing than having a canteen-style meal which reminded them of the time when they fought in the Anti-Japanese War, where everyone would gather around a big pot for a communal feast regardless of their birthdays or mission completions.
Hence, upon hearing this suggestion from the veterans, Old Man Song was also moved. While he knew Li Sujun wouldn't cook for them, if it were his fellow old comrades, he certainly would. But since there were so many people now, he definitely wouldn't do it himself. Consequently, Old Man Grandpa and Li Suju商量後,決定讓張大海回來幫忙。
另外,雖然很多人都知道李隨軍收了張大海為徒這件事,但畢竟冇有正式公開過。這次正好有一個機會,可以讓李隨軍正式宣佈一下。
因此中午的時候,李老給張大海打了一個電話,把他從深海叫了回來。由於明天人多,做大鍋菜費時又費力,所以想到了蕭煜,請他幫忙一起做!
當他來找到蕭煜的時候,正好宋虎山也要來找蕭煜,於是兩人一塊趕了過來。
The old man also thought it over and decided to get Zhang Dahai back to help. Besides, although many people knew that Li Suju had taken Zhang Dahai as his disciple, this hadn't been officially announced yet. This was a perfect opportunity for Li Suju to make an official announcement.
Therefore, around noon, Old Master Li called Zhang Dahai and brought him back from Shenzhen. Since there were many people tomorrow and making canteen-style meals takes both time and effort, he thought of Xiao Yu and asked him to help with the cooking!
When he came to find Xiao Yu, Song Hushan was also coming for Xiao Yu at the same time, so they both rushed over.
Xiao Yu heard what Zhang Dahai had said and immediately agreed without hesitation, as there was no reason for him to refuse since Zhang Dahai had already voiced his request.
"By the way, big brother, let me take your pulse!"
While they were chatting, Xiao Yu suddenly remembered that Zhang Dahai practiced internal kung fu too. In the beginning stages of practicing internal kung fu, one's meridians would be severely damaged due to lack of training; hence they would be very fragile and easily suffer from hidden injuries. The sooner these hidden injuries in the meridians were treated, the easier it was to cure them.
When Zhang Dahai heard what Xiao Yu said, he didn't ask why and simply extended his arm. Although he wasn't sure why Xiao Yu wanted to take his pulse, he knew that Xiao Yu wouldn't harm him.
Xiao Yu placed his hand on Zhang Dahai's wrist and began taking his pulse. After a while, Xiao Yu let go of Zhang Dahai's wrist, slightly frowned before relaxing again. He said, "It’s fine, everything is normal, there are no hidden injuries in your meridians!"
When Xiao Yu was feeling the pulse earlier, he discovered that Zhang Dahai's meridians were similar to Song Hu-shan's—there wasn't any hidden injury but rather they were very resilient. This puzzled Xiao Yu; considering Zhang Dahai had just started practicing internal kung fu, there should be hidden injuries in his meridians, yet the current state left him baffled.
"Xiaoyu, I'll come to pick you up at 6 AM tomorrow morning! Let Yunxi stay with your Aunt Zhou; she’ll take good care of Yunxi!" said Song Hu-shan to Xiao Yu. Since Xiao Yu wanted to help Zhang Dahai with the big pot dishes and he wasn't considered an outsider, they had to leave very early.
"Oh right, little brother, do you need any other herbs for making these big pot dishes Can we make them similar to yours"
Zhang Dahai suddenly remembered that the taste of Xiao Yu's cooking was somewhat different from his. However, the taste of Xiao Yu’s obviously surpassed his. Therefore, Zhang Dahai had this idea and asked Xiao Yu.
"Hmm... big brother, it would be better if you make them like yours! My kind of big pot dishes wouldn't fit in this situation!" said Xiao Yu after hearing Zhang Dahai's words.
“Why” Both Zhang Dahai and Song Hu-shan looked slightly surprised when they heard what Xiao Yu had to say.
"Haha, the herb I use for my big pot dishes is called ‘large tea medicine’ or commonly known as '斷腸草'. Do you think it's suitable to put in tomorrow’s meal"the武警 (People's Armed Police), he recalled a directive from a central leader and quickly dismissed this thought.In addition, if this matter could be handled within a small scope, then efforts should b...
