Chapter 184 The First Snow of
This afternoon, Wang Jianye called his six apprentices to help him move the new furniture to his courtyard home, and then he specially prepared a large table of dishes in the evening for a gathering.

Wang Jianye knew that they were all young men, at the age when they had good appetites and enjoyed eating everything, so he made large portions of each dish and let them eat to their heart's content. Everyone ate until their bellies were full and looked very satisfied.

After eating and drinking, the table was a mess. Several apprentices wiped the table, washed the dishes, swept the floor and took out the garbage. Everything was cleaned up neatly. Wang Jianye did not keep the remaining dishes, but let them take some back.

The next day was the weekend. After eating some breakfast at a breakfast stall outside, Wang Jianye rode his bicycle to Nanluoguxiang in the north.

When they got home, Wang Jianye had finished making the furniture that Fengzeyuan had awarded him and had moved it to his residence. Zhang Lan wanted to go and see the quality, so Wang Jianye agreed to bring it to him in the afternoon to have a look.

Wang Jiannan, Wang Jianwen, Wang Jianwu and their primary and secondary schools are all on winter vacation, and they have performed well in this final test.

Last time, Wang Jiannan ranked first in the grade, so the goal set for her in this test is to get above 95 points in all subjects. If Wang Jiannan achieves this, Wang Jianye will give her a Hero Gold Pen.

This gold pen is certainly not made of pure gold. Instead, it is a fountain pen with an alloy of iridium at the tip and an alloy of gold at the nib. It is very beautiful and costs more than five dollars.

This was a challenge for Wang Jiannan, but in order to own this very beautiful fountain pen, she studied even harder. In the end, her grades in every class were above 96 points, and she got full marks in three classes, achieving the goal set by Wang Jianye for her.

Wang Jianwen also ranked first in the grade in the last test, so for this final test, Wang Jianye set the same goal for him as Wang Jiannan, and Wang Jianwen also achieved the goal. Wang Jianye agreed with him to cook a table of delicious food.

In the last test, Wang Jianwu rose from 29th place in the class to 5th place, which can be said to be a great improvement. This time, Wang Jianye set a goal for him to become the first place. Wang Jianwu also achieved this goal and asked Wang Jianye to prepare a table of his favorite food for him as a reward.

This morning, Wang Jianye went to fulfill the agreement. He first bought a Hero gold pen for Wang Jiannan, then asked Wang Jianwu what he wanted to eat, bought a lot of dishes and returned to the courtyard.

As for Wang Jianwen’s request, Wang Jianye planned to prepare another big meal in two days, and the meal with Wang Jianwu could not be repeated.

"Brother, where's mine?"

Wang Jianting was a little envious, especially the beautiful Hero gold pen that Wang Jiannan was holding in his hand. She also wanted it.

Seeing her envious look, Wang Jianye smiled and said, "Didn't we agree before that if you rank in the top 20 in the final exam, I will give you a reward? You haven't taken the test yet."

"The final exam is next week..."

Wang Jianting is in college, where there is only one test from beginning to end of a semester, and that is the final test.

Wang Jiannan, Wang Jianwen, and Wang Jianwu all took part in two tests and received Wang Jianye's rewards twice, but she hasn't received one yet. It's because she is a college student and only has tests at the end of the semester.

"It will be very soon, don't worry, prepare well."

Zhang Lan comforted.

At noon, Wang Jianye prepared a table full of Wang Jianwu's favorite dishes, all of which were of state banquet quality, triggering the following special effects: [Increase lifespan by one day] three times, [Increase strength by one pound] twice, and [Increase IQ by one point] once.

After eating and drinking, Zhang Lan and Wang Jianting cleaned the table. In the afternoon, Wang Jianye and they came to their new residence in the courtyard at No. 11 Qianmen.

“This cabinet is nice.”

After seeing Wang Jianye's new furniture in the room, Zhang Lan went forward to knock and touch it, and found that it was really very solid and of good quality. "Very good, your boss really didn't treat you unfairly. He made 24 legs for you. The carpenter he found has good craftsmanship and the wood he used is also good. It will be enough for you to use for a very long time."

At this time, Wang Jiannan came into the house from the yard and said in surprise: "Mom, I think I saw the old man He who ran away with the widow in our yard."

"Didn't he go to Baocheng? Why is he still in Sijiucheng?"

Zhang Lan was also very surprised and couldn't help guessing, "Some time ago, Sha Zhu took his sister to Baocheng to find He Daqing. Could it be that He Daqing changed his mind and wanted to return to Sijiucheng to continue living with Sha Zhu and the others... But this doesn't make sense. Since he's back, why didn't he go to our courtyard and be with Sha Zhu? Jianye, do you know?"

Wang Jianye smiled and said, "You're wrong. He is not He Daqing. His name is Cai Quanwu. He has always lived in this courtyard. It's not Nan Nan's fault that she mistook him for someone else. He looks so much like He Daqing that even He Daqing's biological son, Sha Zhu, mistook him for his father, He Daqing. The last time Sha Zhu came to my place, he mistook Cai Quanwu for his father, He Daqing, and almost got into a fight with him..."

Zhang Lan and the others were very interested in what Wang Jianye said and asked him to talk more because they were interested in listening.

For this evening meal, everyone had it at Wang Jianye's new residence. Wang Jianye specially bought three pounds of mutton, two pounds of beef, a bottle of peanut butter, a bottle of sesame paste, chives, etc., preparing to eat hot pot.

He had already bought the pot for the hot pot, and he would eat hot pot when he didn't feel like cooking. At this moment, Wang Jianye had to cut the meat. With his knife skills, the mutton he cut was better than that from Donglaishun.

"It's snowing outside."

Wang Jiannan looked outside through the window on the door and said in surprise.

Wang Jianting and her two siblings were looking at the snow at the door. This was the first snow in 53, and it fell in January, on the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month.

This was also the first snow Wang Jianye encountered in the two months since he traveled through time.

After eating hot pot, Wang Jiannan and Wang Jianting cleaned up the place for him. After all, one of them had Wang Jianye’s wish fulfilled, and the other wanted Wang Jianye to help her fulfill her wish, so they were both very active.

"You two brothers are men, so I'm leaving the three of them in your care. Make sure you send them home safely." When it was time to go back, Wang Jianye instructed Wang Jianwen and Wang Jianwu.

"I know bro."

Wang Jianwu shouted. He felt that he had been eating better recently and his strength had increased a lot. He could now beat the people in the class who used to be unable to arm wrestle. "I will definitely protect them."

Zhang Lan, Wang Jianting and Wang Jiannan smiled at each other when they heard what Wang Jianwu, who was only ten years old and the shortest in their family, said.

At the same time, at Sha Zhu's house in Nanluoguxiang, Yi Zhonghai walked in puzzled.

"Zhu Zi, you said that the meat was given to you by Cui Hua Lou, but they can't let you bring it back every few days, that would be too rich."

Yi Zhonghai didn't understand.

Sha Zhu said with a smug smile: "Uncle, if you think that I stole the meat, you can report me to Cuihualou. It's up to you."

"Does Cuihualou treat other masters like this?"

"I don't know. Why are they so nice to you? You've only been working at Cuihua Building for a short time, right?"

Yi Zhonghai asked doubtfully.

Sha Zhu just answered perfunctorily.

Yi Zhonghai gave this pension candidate a heartfelt persuasion: "Cuihualou treats you well, you must work hard in Cuihualou. We should have a conscience and be grateful..."

"I understand, sir."

Shazhu is so annoyed. I'm still drinking. Why do you have so much to say?

At this time, Sha Zhu had not yet been brainwashed by Yi Zhonghai to become a good person with "conscience", so he was not impressed by Yi Zhonghai's words.

"You should work hard in Cuihualou and improve your cooking skills. Look at Wang Jianye in the backyard. He is now the second cook and earns more than 50 yuan a month. He is almost catching up with me, a senior fitter."

Yi Zhonghai tried to persuade him again.

Shazhu wanted to laugh in his heart, Lao Deng, you may not know, but my brother Wang is already the head chef, and his basic salary is 80 yuan a month, which has long surpassed yours.

Sha Zhu heard about this at Cuihua Tower from Chef Xu. Wang Jianye also told Sha Zhu not to tell anyone and to keep it secret as long as possible.

But Sha Zhu also knew that this matter could not be concealed after all. Sooner or later, everyone in the hospital would know that Wang Jianye had become the head chef and could receive a basic salary of 80 yuan a month, the highest income in the hospital.

I wonder what expression you would have when you knew my brother Wang’s true situation…

Sha Zhu was looking forward to it.
