Siheyuan: Started from a blind date and being cut off

Yi Zhonghai wanted to continue to praise He Yuzhu in front of Lou Chengye and his wife, and tried to get Lou Chengye and his wife to agree to a time for Lou Xiao'e and He Yuzhu to meet.

Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Lou Chengye said before him: "Master Yi, it's a new era now, and arranged marriages are no longer popular. We have to go home and talk to Xiao'e and ask

Ask Xiao'e for her opinion.

If Xiao'e agrees, I will ask Xiao Chen to arrange a meeting between the two young people, what do you think?"

Lou Chengye declined politely. His refusal was impeccable and did not give Yi Zhonghai any chance to continue promoting He Yuzhu.

However, Lou's mother seemed a little moved and wanted to stay and chat more and learn more about He Yuzhu's situation, but she was pulled away by Lou Chengye.

Yi Zhonghai looked at the retreating figures of Lou Chengye and his wife, scratching his head and wondering what was going on.

It's obvious that Li Ye didn't cause any trouble, so why did this matter still go viral? It's really weird.

…

Far away from Yi Zhonghai, Lou's mother said with some displeasure: "Old Lou, do you want your daughter to get married?

Isn’t the He Yuzhu that Master Yi mentioned just now quite good? It meets our requirements, his family background is clean, and his ancestors have been farm laborers for three generations.

Why are you leaving in such a hurry? Wouldn't it be better to have a little chat and learn more about the situation?"

"You don't know this Yizhonghai. Twenty years ago, our family was the largest shareholder of the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, and Yizhonghai worked in the factory.

At that time, my father was a director, and I helped manage the factory. I was in charge of the production workshop, and I had a lot of contact with the people below.

Don't look at this Yi Zhonghai who appears to be decent, but actually has evil intentions. Do you believe what he says?"

Lou Chengye had already seen through Yi Zhonghai.

It is said that people die for money and birds die for food.

Lou Chengye did not die because of money. He was able to conform to the general trend of the times and endured the pain of breaking his arm at the critical moment. He took the initiative to hand over the shares of the steel rolling mill, the mansion he lived in and all the apparent property, and took his wife with him.

The child found an ordinary house to live in a remote place, which shows his courage and wisdom.

The Lou family was not the only shareholder of the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill back then, and the Lou family was just the largest one.

Except for the Lou family, who have survived until now, all the other shareholders are gone, precisely because they are reluctant to give up their shares and wealth.

People like Lou Chengye were just born in the wrong era. In an era with less restrictions, he is definitely a business tycoon.

For a person like him, how could Yi Zhonghai's disguise be hidden from his eyes?

When Lou's mother heard this, she realized that this was what happened.

Lou's mother thought for a while and felt something was wrong, then said: "No, Old Lou, when we marry our daughter, why do you care whether Yi Zhonghai's intentions are upright or not?"

We are not marrying our daughter to him. We are considering He Yuzhu, whose ancestors have been farmhands for three generations.

Think about it, three generations of your ancestors have been farm laborers. How good and clean this family is.

Didn't you say that before? We don't care about our son-in-law's family background. On the contrary, the poorer our ancestors are, the more secure they are."

Lou Chengye laughed again, shook his head and said, "Didn't you hear what the boy named Li just said? He Yuzhu's specialty is Tan's cuisine. Let me ask you, what is Tan's cuisine?"

Lou's mother was able to marry Lou Chengye when the Lou family was at its peak. Her family background was also extraordinary. She was definitely a lady, knowledgeable and literary.

As soon as she heard what her husband said, she suddenly understood.

Tanjia cuisine was created by Tan Zongjun, an official in the late Qing Dynasty.

In 1874, Tan Zongjun passed the first and second imperial examinations and entered the Hanlin Academy of the Capital as an official.

He loved delicacies all his life and loved to entertain guests. He often held banquets at home and was a very good cook.

Later, when the son's generation became the head of the family, the family's financial situation fell into decline and the family had no money. In order to survive, they treated their own home as a private banquet, which was somewhat similar to the private kitchen restaurants of later generations, accepting work from outside and receiving guests.

Perhaps considering that our ancestors were Hanlins and enjoyed a great career, their descendants were afraid of losing their ancestors’ face, so they did not officially register the restaurant.

It was through this private banquet that Tan's cuisine spread in the capital at that time, and eventually became one of the famous official dishes.

This is the origin and development history of Tanjia Cuisine.

Tanjia Cuisine has a history of more than 80 years from its inception to today, and has always been a high-end cuisine for high-end customers.

Is a farmhand qualified to learn Tan's cuisine? And he is also the official successor of Tan's cuisine. Isn't this nonsense?

Through this analysis, the background of the three generations of farm laborers is fake.

You can use that kind of rhetoric to deceive those people in the courtyard who have never seen the world. But if you use it to deceive Lou Chengye and Lou's mother, then you are more or less looking down on people.

If Lou Chengye could have been deceived by this, he would have gone away with the Lou family back then.

"Do you know why I pulled you away just now? Just listen to what Yi Zhonghai said."

When Lou Chengye saw that Lou's mother had stopped talking, he knew that Lou's mother must have understood, so there was no need for him to explain more.

"Old Lou, you must be thoughtful and careful enough."

Lou's mother nodded and said.

"If I didn't have a lot of eyes, our family would have lost their brains a long time ago. In short, this He Yuzhu is not the son-in-law we are looking for."

Lou Chengye made the final decision and rejected He Yuzhu directly.

From now on, there is no need to mention anything about He Yuzhu and his daughter to him.

"If He Yuzhu can't do it, what about Xiao Zhang's son? That Xiao Zhang used to be a servant in our house."

Since He Yuzhu did not meet the conditions, Lou's mother immediately mentioned another person.

The Xiao Zhang mentioned by Lou's mother was Xu Damao's mother, who once worked as a servant in Lou's family.

In the TV series, Xu Damao was able to marry Lou Xiao'e because of the relationship between her mother and Lou's mother.

Lou's mother had already mentioned Xu Damao in front of Lou Chengye some time ago.

Lou Chengye didn't give any response at that time, and the street office introduced Li Ye, so the blind date became Li Ye instead of Xu Damao.

Now that Li Ye has failed, He Yuzhu doesn't even have to think about it, and Lou's mother brings up Xu Damao again.

Mainly because Lou's mother felt that Xu Damao's mother had done her best in serving their family.

Marrying your daughter to the son of a servant means you have a clean family background and meet the requirements. At the same time, you know everything about your family, and you are less likely to get into trouble.

"No, this person's family background does meet the requirements. His ancestors were real farmers, and his mother was a servant. He has been poor for several generations.

However, this man has the head of a deer, the eyes of a rat, a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. His appearance looks cunning and he does not look like a good person.

Some time ago, I met an old friend for dinner, and this man was there to show the movie.

This person talks nonsense every time he talks, and he doesn't do a lot of flattering. He just goes through the motions without learning the essence, which makes people feel disgusted.

Based on my many years of experience in looking at people, this kind of person has little cleverness but no big picture, and is extremely short-sighted, so he cannot achieve great things.

Also, if you can suppress such a treacherous person, you can be regarded as an excellent henchman.

A family like ours is inherently dangerous in the changing times. If you recruit such a treacherous person as your son-in-law, won't this make our family even more dangerous?

Believe it or not, if one day someone handed him an opportunity to make a successful career, he would use our family as a token of fame."

Lou Chengye thought he was good at judging people, but his sense of Xu Damao was not very good.

I felt that this man was cunning and had a strong desire to climb up. Xu Damao spared no effort to flatter his old friend that day. This kind of person would do anything to climb up.

Recruiting such a person as your son-in-law is a recipe for disaster.
