Chapter 268 Xiao Hei, come back!
Father He was silent for a while, thinking deeply about what He Yuliang said. He knew that his son was a visionary man, and everything he did was for the future of the family. Although mortgaging the restaurant was a risk for them, he also believed in his son's ability and decision-making.
"What are your plans?" asked He's father.
He Yuliang smiled, took out a detailed plan, and explained his ideas and plans to his father one by one. He planned to borrow a sum of money to expand and renovate the restaurant, and at the same time develop some new dishes and services to attract more customers and clients.
"These plans sound good." Father He looked at the plan carefully and nodded, "But you have to pay attention to the risks and be cautious."
"I will, Dad." He Yuliang said solemnly, "I will do my best to make sure everything goes smoothly."
Father He looked at his mature and steady son with a heart full of pride and pride. He knew that no matter what difficulties and challenges he would encounter in the future, his son would stick to his beliefs and move forward courageously.
"Okay, since you've made up your mind, I support you." Father He took a deep breath and decided to support his son's decision, "But you have to remember that no matter what happens, you have to remember that family is the most important thing."
He Yuliang smiled and nodded, his heart full of gratitude and emotion. He knew how important and precious his parents' support was to him, and he would keep it in mind and try his best to do his best.
In the next few days, He Yuliang was busy preparing for the mortgage of the restaurant. He found Yan Jiecheng, discussed the specifics of the mortgage, and signed the relevant agreement. Yan Jiecheng was an old friend of the He family and an influential businessman. He expressed support and appreciation for He Yuliang's plan.
"Yuliang, I'm optimistic about you." Yan Jiecheng smiled and patted He Yuliang on the shoulder. "You have vision and courage. I believe you can accomplish great things."
He Yuliang's heart is full of expectations and confidence for the future. He knows that this mortgage is a new starting point for them, and he will go all out to achieve better results.
The morning sun shines through the gray tiles onto the old locust tree in the yard. A few dead leaves hang on the branches, swaying gently in the breeze. On the brick floor of the yard, a few sparrows are pecking at scattered rice grains, occasionally making a few crisp calls, breaking the tranquility of the morning.
He Yuliang took a breath and walked into the house. The furnishings in the house were simple and rustic, and most of the furniture was passed down from the ancestors. The copper candlesticks on the table and the calligraphy and paintings on the wall all revealed traces of time. Sitting on the armchair by the window, he looked at the scenery outside the window, but his mind had already flown to the distant past.
"Yuliang, it's time for breakfast." His wife Li Xiumei came out of the kitchen, holding a bowl of steaming porridge in her hand, and called softly.
"Here it is." He Yuliang came back to his senses and stood up to take the porridge. Li Xiumei was a virtuous woman, gentle and virtuous, and devoted endless efforts to this family. She put bowls of porridge and side dishes on the table and called the two children to come and eat.
The eldest son, He Zhiyong, is in junior high school. He is smart and studious, and has excellent grades. The youngest daughter, He Qingqing, has just started elementary school. She is innocent and lively, and is particularly attached to her parents. Seeing the two children happily eating breakfast, He Yuliang feels extremely satisfied and relieved.
"Dad, the school is organizing an outing today. Can we go?" He Qingqing blinked her big eyes and looked at her father expectantly.
"Of course, Dad will prepare lunch for you." He Yuliang smiled and touched his daughter's head, his heart full of love for the children.
After breakfast, He Yuliang and Li Xiumei packed the children's luggage and sent them to school. Seeing the children running happily to school, He Yuliang and Li Xiumei smiled at each other and walked back hand in hand.
After returning home, He Yuliang decided to go to the study to sort out some old things. The study was full of various books and antiques, all of which he liked to collect. Every book and every antique had a unique story and meaning. He was carefully wiping an antique porcelain bottle, and suddenly found an old suitcase in the corner of the bookshelf.
The lock of the suitcase was already rusty, but He Yuliang still found the key and opened the suitcase. In the suitcase were some old photos and letters, which were photos and correspondence records of his grandparents when they were young. He flipped through these yellowed letters, as if he could see the ups and downs of that era, the rise and fall and changes of the family.
"Yuliang, these are all your grandparents' things, right?" Li Xiumei walked into the study, saw the letter paper in He Yuliang's hand, and asked softly.
"Yes, these letters record every bit of their youth." He Yuliang said with emotion, "Grandpa joined the revolution during the war, and grandma took care of the family in the rear. Their love story is really touching."
"These old photos are also very precious." Li Xiumei picked up a few old photos and looked at them carefully. "Look, this is what your grandfather looked like when he was young. He was so handsome."
He Yuliang nodded and carefully put the photos back into the box. "These are the family's precious treasures. We must preserve them well."
As he was talking, there was a noise in the yard. He Yuliang walked out of the study and saw a puppy from his neighbor Lao Wang's house running into the yard and happily chasing a cat. Lao Wang shouted at the gate of the yard: "Xiao Hei, come back!"
"Old Wang, it's okay. Xiao Hei is having a great time at our house." He Yuliang greeted him with a smile, "Come in and sit for a while."
Old Wang walked into the yard with a smile and patted He Yuliang on the shoulder. "Your yard is getting more and more interesting as time goes by. I'm so envious."
"Yes, this courtyard has witnessed the history of our family. Living here, I always feel a special sense of belonging," He Yuliang said with emotion.
The two chatted for a while before Lao Wang took Xiao Hei away. He Yuliang returned to the house and continued to tidy up the study. He found a memoir written by his grandfather, which detailed his grandfather's life experience and expectations for the family. He sat at the desk and read these words quietly, his heart full of admiration and emotion.
Time flies, and it's evening in the blink of an eye. The children come home from school, looking excited and tired. He Yuliang and Li Xiumei prepare a sumptuous dinner together, and the whole family sits around the table, chatting and laughing, enjoying themselves.
"Dad, we saw a lot of small animals and a large flower field on our outing today. It was so beautiful!" He Qingqing said excitedly.
"Yes, we also took a lot of photos, and the teacher said he would hold a photo exhibition for us." He Zhiyong also took over the conversation with a satisfied smile on his face.
