still slightly ashamed after being caught, was stunned by this. She stammered in alarm: "Silly Zhu, what are you talking about You know the situation at Qin sister's house. Your brother Dongxu just pa...>(Preemptively deflecting, brain storage place)

"Silly Zhu, just now you hit Liu Director right in front of everyone! Today, if you don't give me an explanation, don't blame me for turning against you!"

Xu Damao, standing before me, wore a sullen expression and looked rather imposing.

The head chef Liu Limin, from the canteen next door, was looking displeased with his pot belly sticking out. "Zhuzi, what have you done Why did you just hit someone for no reason Apologize to Xu Damai and compensate him! If you don't settle this properly, you won't be allowed to work in the canteen anymore!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Damao obsequiously greeted Liu, "Director Liu, I don't need to apologize foolishly. Just paying compensation is enough. We grew up in the same courtyard, it shouldn't have come to this. Giving him a lesson will do!"

"Look at Xu Damai's awareness! Now look at you! You're being unreasonable! Go back and pay Xu Damai ten yuan, and this is over!"

After throwing that sentence out, Liu Limin walked away with a frown.

Xu Damao proudly lifted his head and followed closely behind.

Until the two figures disappeared at the back kitchen door, Ma Hua on the side only then angrily cursed: "What the heck! Master, Xu Damai must have done this on purpose! I said why he dared to come over and provoke you today, so it was because Liu was coming, deliberately trying to make trouble for you! This son of a gun is too cunning!"

He Yuzhu sighed softly.

It wasn't because Xu Damao colluded with the head of the canteen to set him up, but rather that he, a model youth of the new era, simply took a nap and found himself transported into this terrible TV drama plot. He even became the unlucky protagonist!

He was so frustrated!

What did he do to upset someone

Congratulations! Host, you have successfully crossed into the courtyard world! The system is activated.

Congratulations to the host for obtaining a bottle of body modification liquid!

The system has gifted the host with a personal space. The space is filled with spiritual energy and can be optionally used to purify items!

Good job!

You should have told me about this system earlier!

He Yuzhu's furrowed brows immediately relaxed. He took a wilted tomato from the cutting board beside him, and in the blink of an eye, the tomato vanished from his palm.

He closed his eyes and felt, in his mind's eye, a vast expanse. The previously wilting tomato was now peacefully suspended within it.

It seemed as if there was telepathy, as soon as He Yuzhu had a little thought, the energy clusters wrapped around the tomatoes.

In just a short while, the tomatoes, which weren't particularly fresh to begin with, became plump and juicy. They even seemed to have a slightly different glow about them.

When the tomato's appearance stopped changing, He Yuzhu willed it to move. The tomato instantly reappeared in his hand. He took a bite, and juice gushed out. He immediately felt that this tomato was sweet and juicy, indescribably delicious. It tasted many times better than ordinary tomatoes!

Well done, this system is really impressive!

He Yuzhu was over the moon. With this thing, he could really fly when it came to giving his superiors special treatment from now on!

.......

"Master, just now when I was in the bathroom, I heard a man next to me say that Xu Damai has been making a fuss at the Propaganda Department. He said if you don't give him money, he'll make things difficult for you!"

Looking at his apprentice, Fatty Yin, diligently reporting the situation outside, He Yuzhu put down his teacup and squinted, "This grandson has always been like this. After drinking a little cat urine, he forgets who he really is."

He didn't really take Xu Damao seriously at this moment. Not to mention anything else, after taking the body modification fluid, He Yuzhu's already good physique was now terrifyingly exaggerated. If he wanted to deal with Xu Damao, it would be very easy!

These days there aren't many surveillance cameras around. On a moonless and stormy night, you could just put a sack over this guy's head. With his current strength, if he didn't hold back, a few punches would send him straight to meet his grandmother.

For the better part of this afternoon, He Yuzhu hasn't been idle. He's been familiarizing himself with his own system space!

Through repeated experimental operations, he has now familiarized himself with that system space.

Besides not being able to carry live animals, there don't seem to be any restrictions on other small objects. Moreover, processed meat and fish are also unaffected. As a chef myself, this is quite enough for me.

As long as you can optimize and upgrade your own ingredients, as long as you seize the opportunity, there will be no worries about the future!

As for Xu Damai and the other beasts in the courtyard, he has plenty of time to deal with them!

I'm not in the habit of being a victim, so people like Qin Huaiyu who want to suck my blood That's just laughable!

He wasn't unfamiliar with the plot of the original drama. He had a general understanding of the characters' personalities. It was just that the year was slightly off; the timeline was three years ahead of the original plot. At the beginning of the year, Qin Huaiyu's husband, Jia Dongxu, had just passed away, and she hadn't been a widow for even two and a half years yet.

However, He Yuzhu didn't mind this at all. With a system by his side, he wasn't really afraid of what kind of trouble these beasts in the courtyard might stir up!

Ma Hua looked at He Yuzhu holding a porcelain teacup with an air of knowing it all. He couldn't help but sigh that his master's cultivation had really improved. If it were before, he would have been roaring and scolding Xu Damai's ancestors by now. Now, he was calmly sitting like a fisherman on the Diaoyu Islands, and his eyes and demeanor were completely different from before!

Unbeknownst to him, the master Shifu He Yuzhu before his eyes had long since changed, and he didn't take Xu Damai, who had come to cause trouble before, as a soft target at all. As for Ma Hua feeling that Master was like a different person, it wasn't far off the mark. After taking the body modification liquid, He Yuzhu was not only his physical fitness but also his appearance had undergone subtle changes.

He Yuzhu took a sip of his highball with an air of calm and said, "Ma Hua, how long have you been cutting the cards"

Even though I'm a master, I can't worry about everything. When traveling through time, one should act like they belong in that era! First, let's set a small goal: get the position of head chef in the dining hall and then we'll see what else happens!

The head chef in the original drama wasn't the former fat Liu Limin. I don't know if that old geezer was brought down by someone reporting his mistakes or simply found a better position elsewhere. Anyway, with this annoying guy constantly watching over us, I have to figure out a way to replace him!

To be a leader, you need to have a few trustworthy subordinates. Ma Hua in front of me is not bad; he's a promising seedling worth cultivating!

Being attentive to his words and actions, Ma Hua's eyes lit up upon seeing Master He's intention was to nurture him. This kid is also quite clever! He immediately scurried to He Yu Zhu's side and replied, "Master, it has already been a full year!"r open.The young woman's face held no expression, she simply asked in a soft voice, "Were the cars outside assigned to you by the factory"Xu Damao said excitedly: “That’s right! It’s probably a brand...
