Siheyuan: A Cook in the 60s

Chapter 288 Untie the knot

"No, Dad!"

"Don't you want to listen to me?" Yi Zhonghai glared.

"I don't want to go anyway."

The two men were glaring at each other, but neither could convince the other.

after awhile.

Yi Zhonghai sighed: "Why not ask your Uncle Cao?"

"Forehead."

That's a solution.

Coincidentally, Cao Wei was at home today.

Ever since Cao Wei opened the Samadhi Tower, he has been very busy.

In TV dramas, the chairman always gives orders, and the secretary does what's needed, and if there's nothing else... well, ahem. That's what it means.

But when you come to Cao Wei, well, you have to do everything yourself, no matter what.

There's no way. At this stage, the restaurant is still far from what he wanted.

Within just a few months of opening, a large number of problems were exposed.

He has to solve a series of trivial issues, such as staff salary structure, uniform clothing, kitchen hygiene issues, raw material supply issues, etc.

You ask why others can't solve it?

That's because he has experience.

What's the saying? The more capable you are, the more work you get. Just like in the system, if people know that you can write documents, then congratulations, you will be the one writing all the documents from now on.

There was no other way in his own restaurant and he could only work hard to train a successor.

And now, this successor is planning to go out to school.

Cao Wei and Cao Leyao stared at each other.

No one gives in to anyone.

"Can't you help your dad a little?!" Cao Wei played the emotional card.

"Come on, I'm only 18!"

Cao Leyao's birthday was in early 64, but her family usually calculated the lunar calendar, which meant she was born at the end of 63. In 81, she was only years old.

And this year, I just graduated from university.

Lou Xiao'e had two exchange student places at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, so she took them out. According to her, both Cao Leyao and Cao Xiucheng should go. No matter what, the schools in Hong Kong are much better than those in China (I'm referring to the early 80s, which has nothing to do with now).

Cao Xiucheng wanted to study modern medicine, and Cao Wei did not object. It would be good for him to go out and broaden his horizons. Moreover, if Cao Wei did not let him go, Mr. Yang would probably hit him on the head with his cane.

But Cao Leyao and Cao Wei still wanted to fool him.

This girl of mine is very clever. If she stays in the country and takes over his restaurant, he can go out leisurely every day.

"Dad, don't try to lie to me, you just don't want to do it anymore!"

Lou Xiao'e watched with glee from the side.

"What are you laughing at!" Cao Wei glared at Lou Xiao'e.

"Your own daughter saw through you, and you still blame me."

"That's right, Xiao'e's mother is still the best. Dad, look at you, how inhumane you are. Your daughter is only 18 years old, and you want to throw her into your shabby restaurant!"

"What do you mean by a shabby restaurant? My restaurant is one of the best in the whole city!"

"Dong dong dong."

Before he could say anything more, there was a knock on the door.

"I'll go open the door!" Cao Leyao jumped to open the door: "Hey, uncle, brother Yi, why are you here?"

After some pleasantries.

The old man spoke up and said, "Cao Wei, this is the case. This kid has good grades in school. There is an opportunity for him to go out, which is a good thing. But you see, he said he doesn't want to go, and only wants to go to the steel mill. How can this work? Isn't it right for him to go out and see the world and serve the country?"

"Don't be anxious." Cao Wei first comforted him, then looked at Yi Yi: "Xiao Yi, what's wrong with you? You didn't take such a good opportunity. You should know the gap between our country and the outside world. Don't think that the relationship between us and them seems to be sweet now. In fact, they just want us to torment Big Brother."

"When Big Brother is gone, the fundamental differences between us and them will cause problems sooner or later. Now, we should learn as much as we can."

"I..." Yi opened his mouth but didn't say anything.

After all, the child is grown up, and there are some things that he is really embarrassed to say. He can't say that he is worried about his father, which is too corny.

Not everyone is like Cao Wei, with a face as thick as a city wall.

"Oh, I see. You are worried about something else." Cao Wei suddenly realized, "You are worried about your uncle. If you leave, no one will take care of him..."

“No, no, no, no…” Yi Yi’s face turned red.

"Why should I worry? Just go if you need to. You don't know what the situation is like in our house. Your uncle Zhuzi and your sister are here with you. There are so many people in our yard. Why should you worry?"

"But mom asked me to take care of you before she left." Yi Yi lowered his head, but still said it.

As soon as these words came out, the old man was stunned for a moment, and then a trace of invisible and intangible sadness and emotion flashed in his eyes.

He sighed and felt around in his arms, but found nothing.

Cao Wei handed over a cigarette at the right time.

Actually, to be clear, this matter is not a big deal at all.

It’s just that Yi Yi just can’t get over the hurdle in his heart.

"Xiaoyi, people always have to make choices in their lives. Your uncle is in good health now, and there are so many uncles and aunts at home to help take care of him. Nothing will go wrong. If you have a dream, you have to realize it. Go ahead, we all support you. With me here, what are you afraid of!"

"Dad! Why did you say that to Brother Yi? You wouldn't even let me go to Hong Kong!"

"Go, you are a girl, why are you running so far?"

The atmosphere of the conversation was finally broken by Cao Leyao.

But Cao Wei knew that there were some things he no longer needed to say, as this was a matter between them and their son. In this regard, the uncle was obviously more suitable than him.

Lou Xiao'e watched the father and son leave, and couldn't help but sigh: "This old man is so old, but he is blessed. Yi Yi is really filial."

"Who knows?" Cao Wei shrugged.

"Can you please not be so gloomy?" Lou Xiao'e glared at him in dissatisfaction.

"Who is shady?" Cao Wei sighed, "I am just lamenting that after these students of ours leave, how many of them will come back?"

"That's too little. If everyone was like Yi Yi, it would be fine, but..."

Having said this, Lou Xiao'e did not continue.

In fact, the game between countries also requires capital.

The current situation in China is not up to par.

Don’t treat the country as a country, treat it as a company.

When one company offers a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan, and another company offers 10 yuan. Not only that, the company that offers 10,000 yuan has various laboratories. The difference is obvious to everyone. Cao Wei saw clearly that the things in this world are nothing more than flowers attracting butterflies.
