"Well, it's my fault today, so I'll just give you the cost price."

He Yuzhu said to Section Chief Ding.

Section Chief Ding nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes... Director He, you are kind."

"Just two hundred dollars."

He Yuzhu said with a smile.

Just...two hundred dollars?

It's not that Section Chief Ding doesn't have 200 yuan, but for him, 200 yuan is not a small sum of money.

It felt even worse to take it out to He Yuzhu.

"Director He... I can't come up with this money right now. How about you cook the food first and I'll replenish it for you later?"

Chief Ding said.

Anyway, I owe it now, and after today I don’t have to pay it back at all.

He Yuzhu shook his head when he heard this: "Forget it, it's already troublesome, let's not bother with it!"

"I'd better go back."

"No, Director He, you--" Section Chief Ding tried to persuade him again and again, but He Yuzhu seemed to have made up his mind and just wanted to leave without saying anything more.

Section Chief Ding saw that the stage was about to collapse and the play could not stop singing, so he had no choice but to ask He Yuzhu to wait and go home to get 200 yuan.

"Director He, I can give you two hundred yuan."

"But you also have to promise me one thing. Come with me to meet my old uncle and talk about the current situation so that my old uncle can relax and wait for you to cook Tan's food."

Chief Ding said.

He Yuzhu nodded: "That's okay."

When Section Chief Ding heard this, he was delighted: This stinky cook was finally fooled!

It makes me feel sad to think that I spent all this money, first fifty and then two hundred.

It doesn't matter, I'll just get the money back later.

Section Chief Ding thought in his mind and handed the two hundred yuan to He Yuzhu.

Then, he took He Yuzhu to the low house again.

This time, He Yuzhu agreed after giving money to He Yuzhu. He would never regret it again, would he?

Finally, under the expectant gaze of Section Chief Ding, He Yuzhu opened the door.

"You can't see it in the house!"

"Can old uncle come out and speak?"

He Yuzhu spoke.

"My old uncle has trouble walking, so he probably can't get out." Section Chief Ding said, "Director He, please go in and talk."

He Yuzhu smiled and turned to look at the window of a certain floor of the residential building in the Family Courtyard.

Director Li is standing in front of the window. The deputy section chief of the security section of the steel rolling mill, the other members of the security section led by him, and another study team must have all taken their places.

Just waiting for Section Chief Ding and Section Chief Chen to come up with their tricks.

Therefore, He Yuzhu is really not afraid of the traps of the two of them.

Today they said it was a big deal, and no matter how good the reason was, Director Li and Deputy Director He of the steel rolling mill joined forces, and their prepared fists were harder than theirs, and they could easily lift the table.

Play with him.

He Yuzhu walked into the dim hut with a smile. Chief Ding stood at the door and refused to go in.

There was a table in the middle of the hut, and sitting at the table was an old man with a rough face.

The old man held a dry tobacco bag and smoked it with the flame flickering on and off.

Seeing He Yuzhu come in, the old man was not anxious at all, did not speak, and continued smoking his dry cigarette slowly.

It wasn't until a while later that he put down his dry pipe in the smoke, rolled it up slowly, and put it inside his clothes.

"Is it delicious if I let (you) beat (make) the food?"

Not bad, really good... He is an old pawn shop owner for many years and speaks with the accent of an old farmer working in the fields in the Central Plains area.

"It's not bad." He Yuzhu said, "Old man, are you Chief Ding's uncle?"

"Yeah." The old man replied.

"Have you ever been a pawnshop owner?" He Yuzhu asked again.

The old man replied again: "Yeah."

He Yuzhu smiled: "What good things did you bring today to open my eyes?"

The old man remained silent and did not answer.

Section Chief Ding thought about his fifty yuan and two hundred yuan, and then looked at He Yuzhu's hungry wolf-like questioning, and he finally understood.

Everyone said that Deputy Director He didn't care about money, he concentrated on production work and never did other dirty things.

It turned out to be fake too.

This is much uglier than what we eat!

The food hasn't been cooked yet, so it's time to get something out.

However, this is exactly what Section Chief Ding wants: "Director He, do you really want to see it?"

"I want to see it." He Yuzhu said.

Section Chief Ding laughed and walked away from the door: "Old uncle, just let him take a look... I'll get something and I'll be back in a moment."

When the old man saw Section Chief Ding leaving, he sighed and whispered to He Yuzhu: "My child, please leave quickly!"

"My little nephew is nothing."

"I'm going to hurt you!"

He Yuzhu became interested: "Are you really his old uncle?"

"Well, give me five dollars and let me pretend to be a rich man." The old man said, "I'll just say, I'm not successful in this matter, but the children at home have to eat."

"I have such an old face, I have to keep it clean as I get older."

"Old pawnshop owner?" He Yuzhu asked again.

"That's my brother. He died a long time ago. When my family came to Sijiu City, it was my brother who took care of us." The old man said, "My child, please leave quickly! Don't ask about this matter. I'll ask you again if you can leave."

"

"It's okay, I don't want to leave."

He Yuzhu smiled and said: "What is that good thing that Section Chief Ding asked you to bring out?"

"It is indeed a rare thing. He dug it out from my brother's old house. He told me many times that he would not dare to break it."

The old man pointed to a table next to him. There were two things on the table, both in boxes.

One is a long box, and the other is a palm-sized, square box.

Just as He Yuzhu was about to say something, the sound of clattering footsteps was getting closer and closer.

Under the confused gaze of the old man, He Yuzhu took a step forward, blocked the old man's sight, and put all the long boxes and square boxes into the storage grid.

As soon as he finished this action, a fat figure ran towards the door.

"Caught!"

Liu Haizhong shouted.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Haitang rushed over and shouted: "Caught it! Chief Liu, come quickly -"

Immediately afterwards, Liu Haitang and Yu Haitang looked at He Yuzhu with wide eyes like chickens strangled by their necks.

"He...Director He?"

Yu Haitang's eyes suddenly turned, and he turned around and ran back: "Chief Liu, why is Director He here?"

Section Chief Liu said in a long voice: "Director He? You can't, right?"

While he was speaking, Yu Haitang quietly fell two positions behind, gradually reaching the end of the study team.

Only Liu Haizhong was still standing stupidly at the door, bearing the brunt.

Section Chief Liu led people to the door and took a look at He Yuzhu.

Liu Haizhong stammered: "How...how is it...Director He?"

Section Chief Liu had a serious look on his face: "Even if it's Director He, what's so scary about it?"

He patted Liu Haizhong on the shoulder again: "You charged forward and did a good job, very good."

The bones in his bangs suddenly felt lighter, and he became even more hesitant for a moment.

Section Chief Liu He Yuzhu then shouted: "He Yuzhu, you were caught on the spot, what else can you say?"
