Sesame Green Bean Garlic

Huo Zian was shocked.He worried about things for a day and a night, and his father solved them with a sip of hot tea.Even though his father had been prepared for a long time, the manipulative power and interpersonal network in it still opened his eyes.What my father said was right, if Zhou Dongxi, a little girl, was allowed to kowtow, I'm afraid no amount of money or time would have the effect.

His father went on to say something that shocked him even more: "Deleting the message alone still can't eliminate the influence. There are too many idlers now, and someone will come out and talk about it later. Let's let the person who sent the message come out Apologize, make up a reason, say that he is a misunderstanding, a prank, or drinking too much, anyway, he is spreading rumors. We just delete the blog for a while, this matter cannot be suppressed, it should be reversed, put it It’s a big mess. That person came out to apologize, and then we spread some positive news about the restaurant, and found a few wrists with a lot of fans to say good things to the restaurant. After both sides tried their best, this incident became the restaurant’s publicity instead.”

Huo Zian couldn't believe it: "That person will come out to apologize? What I said last night, he was very angry."

"Of course, it depends on what method you use—Zian, as the restaurant grows bigger, you will encounter various problems in the future, some of which you can't solve, but for me, it's just a matter of moving your fingers. You Do you know why? This Youde Building has [-] floors. It is very grand. What you see are only its branches, and there are deep, deep roots under it, which are rooted in the soil in all directions. These roots It’s not for nothing, you see, if I want someone to apologize now, he has to come out and apologize. You are like a little sparrow, if you want to build a nest, you have to find such a deep tree, and Not on the broken tiles in the alley!"

"The broken tiles in the alley..." Huo Zian repeated softly.

Qin Youde continued: "Have you received the news that the hutong is going to be renovated, and it is said to beautify the square. But let me tell you, the problem of hutongs is complicated. People with backgrounds, cultural relics protection, commercial interests, area The power struggle is all there, and the situation is changing rapidly. Even I feel that the water is too deep to play. You should retreat early and come in Youdelou——from now on, all the western restaurants in Youdelou will use you Name it after your restaurant, I guarantee that within three years, your branch will open in New York!"

Huo Zi thought to himself, when it comes to the end, he still wants his restaurant!No, it's not that simple. My father wants to control his restaurant, but in fact he still wants to control him through the restaurant.Huo Zian only thought it was absurd, maybe there was indeed his father's love for him, but why did it have to be done in such a way?

He resisted his father from the bottom of his heart, "I...I don't want to join Youde Building for now."

Qin Youde frowned: "Zian, why are you so stubborn? Hey, you think I'm plotting against your small restaurant. If I plot against your restaurant, it's not easy. If I want you to pay back the money, you have to I have to declare bankruptcy in two months!" He had no patience, and said in a tone of hatred for iron and steel: "I want you to know that if you want to come to me, there are only advantages and no disadvantages, and many problems will not become problems. Not to mention fake wine, even if you eat it to death, it will not shake your foundation!"

Huo Zian's face turned pale, and his heart was overwhelmed. Not only did he feel resisted, but he even felt a little disgusted.

Father softened his voice: "I know you are serious about your work, and of course nothing will go wrong. That's why I want you to come and help me. Zi'an, think again?"

Huo Zian shook his head.

Qin Youde sighed: "That's all!" He took a sip of hot tea, tightly closed his lips, and the expression on his face disappeared.

After a while, Qin Youde said again: "It's fine if you don't want to, but there is one thing, you listen to me: You Liangchen, don't use him anymore!"

Huo Zian thought he heard it wrong: "You Liangchen? What's wrong with him?"

"Isn't he the only one who caused this matter? He made such a big mistake, so it's not too much to quit him. Zi'an, you like him, so you can't keep him anywhere. Do you have to keep him in the dining room? In a few years you will play Annoyed and want to get rid of him, he holds the right to the restaurant and enjoys all the benefits you give him. Do you think he can let go so easily?"

Hearing this, Huo Zian really felt hurt. He endured his unhappiness and said, "Liang Chen is not my toy, but my partner. He has paid a lot to the restaurant and helped me a lot. Without him, the restaurant will not be as good." will do what it is today.”

Qin Youde said: "Partner? I checked his background, he's just a gangster, graduated from a bad school, has no skills, and has done all kinds of low-level jobs. Such a person, is he helping you, or you helping him? ?" Qin Youde knew that it would take a little more effort to persuade Huo Zian to move the restaurant to Youde Building, and he couldn't achieve nothing after doing so many actions later.In the worst case, You Liangchen should be taken away.

Qin Youde couldn't accommodate You Liangchen, not because he hated him so much, he thought it would be very troublesome if You Liangchen stayed in the restaurant and got the shares of the restaurant--Qin Youde has read countless people, and he knows people well. Ming can see that Zi An is pure and kind, and he can also see that You Liangchen is stubborn and not easy to play with. If he gets in the way, who will Zi An listen to?

Huo Zian didn't answer.He knew his father wouldn't understand, and he didn't want to understand.He also understood the threat in his father's words, if he refused to agree to anything, then the magic his father cast on him just now would be invalid immediately, the big tree removed the branches and leaves that opened for him, and he could only go back alone Faced with a flood of accusations - accusing him of something he was really at fault for.

A feeling of sadness spread from the bottom of his heart.

He looked up at his father and said softly, "Mother is back, do you know?"

Qin Youde was stunned.he does not know.This sentence made him panic.

"She has come back……"

"She is traveling with her husband's family. I told her that I found you in Beijing, and she said that if you want, you can have dinner together."

Qin Youde remained silent.

Zian smiled: "If you don't want to, forget it, she will leave in a few days."

Qin Youde was in a complicated mood and didn't want to directly say that he didn't want to, so he said, "Let me see the schedule for the next few days."

While drinking tea, the two of them didn't touch the delicate snacks on the table.After being silent for a long time, Huo Zian suddenly said: "Did you miss me and my mother in these years?"

Qin Youde's small eyes blinked almost invisibly. "Very little. I seldom miss you, but you and your mother are here with me." Qin Youde patted his broad chest, "Sometimes it swells very big, sometimes it's as small as a sesame seed. Then Xiao Ye has always been in my heart. I may hurt your heart when I say that, I really want to take you two off, but I just can’t take it off!"

Huo Zian lowered his eyes, not wanting to see his father's face again.He was afraid that he would appear vulnerable again.

He could tell that his father's words were sincere.But he couldn't tell whether what his father did to him was out of his support and affection for his son, or did he just want to use himself?Or had the two been mixed together, and even my father couldn't tell—just because he couldn't tell, he could rampantly impose on himself everything he took for granted?

Huo Zian slowly calmed down.For some reason, what came to his mind was the scene of Yu Liangchen chopping the ax vigorously into the soil, brutal, ferocious, and merciless; his decadent spirit was inspired.

He raised his head and said to his father in a flat tone: "I don't want to join Youde Building, and I don't plan to quit You Liangchen. Thank you for your help with the counterfeit wine. I will repay the money according to the contract."

Qin Youde remained silent.

Huo Zian stood up and said with a smile: "If you want to see your mother, call me."

The sky was blue and the sun was blindingly bright, but the temperature was terribly cold.This year, Xiafu was hotter than usual, and Dongjiu was colder than usual.Huo Zian didn't realize it, this was the first time he had spent a complete season in the northern city.

A year passed, and he sat under the big locust tree again.

His leather shoes have been thrown down by Liangchen, and they are now in a corner of the courtyard of You's house, filled with bouncy balls for teasing Lao Tie.But the tree is still the same tree, looking awe-inspiring.

Every time Huo Zian was confused, he would run under the tree and think quietly.Up to now, he still thinks that the tree has a spirit. From the first time he stepped into this alley, the big tree has drawn him in some way, connecting him with this land.This year, almost all the unforgettable things he experienced happened under the big locust tree, where he pondered and relieved, was happy and disappointed, listened to the New Year's bell, and fell in love with Yu Liangchen...

Now he still hopes that the big tree has not abandoned him, and can give him guidance as before—or, just a little shelter is fine.

He is going through an unprecedented predicament.

The counterfeit wine incident is very bad, and the impact on the reputation of the restaurant is immeasurable. I am afraid that the hope of getting Michelin three stars will also come to nothing.But this is not what Huo Zian most urgently wants to solve.The knife hanging over his head was actually that huge loan.The money was like a thread held in his father's hand. At some point, his father would pull the thread abruptly, causing him to fall.

If the restaurant can operate as usual, he can pay it off gradually.However, the restaurant is caught in a crisis of counterfeit wine, and the attendance rate will drop. In a short period of time, his cash flow will definitely go wrong.

He was pretending to be in front of his father just now, and he looked awesome, but in the end, isn't it still very likely that he won't be able to keep the restaurant?

You Liangchen came over and sat beside him.Huo Zian took a look at You Liangchen, and suddenly felt that he couldn't hold on anymore, so he fell down on You Liangchen's lap.

Many dark nights, after they finished their work, they would lean quietly under the tree for a while.But now it was broad daylight, the sky was bright, and the sun was shining straight down, making Zian's eye sockets sore.You Liangchen's big palm lightly brushed his eyelids, and Huo Zian closed his eyes.

The world became far away, and Huo Zian's thoughts immediately calmed down.He didn't know if it was because of You Liangchen or because of the big locust tree.

He remembered that he came all the way to Beijing to find his father, but his father was completely different from what he had imagined, but he found the sense of security he wanted here.

Is that because of Yu Liangchen or the big locust tree?It doesn't matter, maybe You Liangchen and Dahuaishu are one.With the goodwill of this land to him, they accepted him, took care of him, and gently shielded him from the scorching sun with their hands.

What else could he be dissatisfied with?It turned out that he worked hard and searched at a loss for a long time, and what he wanted was already by his side.

The author has something to say:

These two days I've been in sci-fi movies, looking up at the starry sky every day, and basically haven't written anything... But I've learned a truth, the future doesn't decide the present, the future decides the present.So if I miss something important, my future self will definitely come back and remind me~~

As for the writing, let it take its course.

Stop talking and continue watching movies, haha.
