The Northern Stories of Chef Lao Tan

Chapter 218 Zhang Yu and Yanzi's Worries
Zhang Yu, when we first knew him, Lao Tan worked in Ganqika, and we met through director Wu of the Osteopathic Hospital.

At that time, Zhang Yu was at a low ebb in his career. The Haidong Road restaurant he opened was not making any money, his coal business was also sluggish, and he divorced his wife.Unfortunately, he was deceived by others, and he lost his manpower and money, and became a polished commander.

Fortunately, Lao Tan took over the restaurant, and the business gradually improved, and he regained some vitality.

Then he went to the provincial capital to inspect Aqiao's dumpling restaurant, and fell in love with Yanzi at first sight, and they fell in love with each other. Finally, the two got together and became husband and wife.The combination with Yanzi is a winner. Not only does he embrace the beauty, but he also takes over Yanzi's shares in Aqiao, becoming a veritable boss.

As a boss, he was as relaxed as a swallow, no matter what happened, he obeyed the numerology and obeyed the command, and fought wherever he pointed.

This is not to say that he does not participate in the management, but that there is Lao Tan in the management, everything is well organized, and cooperation is enough.

Having said that, this also fully demonstrates the trust in Lao Tan and his honesty and honesty. If he is a sinister and cunning person, he will not be like this.

So not everyone can be a boss.

A boss who doesn’t understand technology can hire someone who understands technology; if he doesn’t know management, he can find a management elite; if he doesn’t understand computers, he can hire a college student; if he doesn’t understand finance, he can hire an accountant.These are easy to handle, but if the structure, mind, and virtue cannot be improved, no one can replace them, and they are doomed to fail.

There is a saying that makes sense, so let's listen to it.

Knowledge is learned, ability is developed, and human virtue is cultivated.

That's why the old man Confucius said: If you don't cultivate your virtue, it's my worry.

From ancient times to the present, it is the practice of self-cultivation first, then the family, and then governing the country and the world.

Therefore, Lao Tzu said that cultivation should be based on the body, and its virtue is true.

Only when people are virtuous enough can they be able to be healthy in nature.

Although Zhang Yu is not a gentleman, but as a man, he still has a bearing and style, so he is willing to serve as Lao Tan's deputy without complaint, and even enjoys it.

He is like this, and so is the swallow.

When he told Yanzi about recruiting an agent to set up a group, Yanzi first told him not to think about himself as the boss of the group, it was fine like this, he would cooperate with everything, and he would rather put in more effort than show off.

"When Ah Qiao opened the second restaurant, I was just kicked out. I didn't have a penny, and it was all taken by Yanhua. It stands to reason that the restaurant has developed to this day and is owned by Yanhua, and I have nothing to do with it. Yanhua Pay attention, the first store was done together, so it belongs to both of us, and everything is divided equally.

Lao Tan stayed because of Yanhua's face, and I left early.To put it bluntly, the restaurant was run by Lao Tan alone, and it would have been yellow without him.Now whether it is to establish a group or a company, let's put a name on it and listen honestly. "Swallow said.

"That's not right, don't look at me as the boss, I know what I am, and I listen to Lao Tan." Zhang Yu said.

"We do nothing now and earn over one hundred thousand a year. It's interesting enough. Old Tan manages it very well, and Yi Xin Pu is in the restaurant. Let's just listen to our heads and do what we can."

"Yes."

Yanzi picked up her daughter and kissed her intimately.

"I don't think about anything now, just have my daughter."

Zhang Yu also leaned over, moved his finger under his daughter's chin, and said, "Good girl, smile."

The little guy started giggling, and the two adults also laughed happily.

Zhang Yu then said another thing.

The matter is Lao Tan's fault. Two days ago, Zhou Xiaomei told him about Lao Tan's physical examination last month. She said that Lao Tan's high blood pressure was serious and he also had stomach problems. The doctor said that he needed hospital treatment. Danger.

"Really?" Yanzi was a little unconvinced, "Lao Tan's health has not always been good, but he has bronchiectasis. Thinking of Lao Tan being knifed, he couldn't help becoming nervous.

"It's a good injury. It's nothing. It's mainly high blood pressure and stomach. High pressure is [-], low pressure is [-]. The pressure difference is large, and the low pressure is too high. If you don't fix it, you will be in danger at any time." Zhang Yu said seriously. .

"Is that serious? They are all drinking, tell him to quit drinking quickly—"

"Most people get confused when their blood pressure reaches [-], and they can't walk casually when they reach [-]. Zhang used to suffer from cerebral hemorrhage. He also blames it. It's nothing to worry about when it's usually [-], and he's not even confused." Zhang Yu said strangely. .

"Is there something wrong with the blood pressure monitor?"

"Nonsense, what's wrong with the sphygmomanometer, it was checked in the affiliated hospital."

"Then why isn't he confused?"

"How would I know?"

"Quickly advise him to be hospitalized."

"Go and persuade him, I can't persuade him, he is a man of temper, who can say anything."

The facts are indeed the same, Lao Tan doesn't think there is anything wrong with his body, and insists on not being hospitalized.Now taking antihypertensive drugs every day, the blood pressure has been controlled between [-] and [-].

He didn't feel confused or dizzy, and explained to himself that he was in a good mood, so he didn't have those symptoms.

He thought so, but the people around him didn't think so.Through careful communication with the doctor, Zhou Xiaomei knows that he is now a high-risk group and may be in danger at any time.

I tried to persuade Lao Tan twice, but both ended in failure.I called Yanhua and told Yanhua about it. Yanhua was very worried, but knowing Lao Tan, if he didn't want to be hospitalized, it would be useless to talk about it, and he wouldn't go.

Yanhua wanted to wait for Lao Tan to return to the provincial capital to go to the medical university for another checkup, and then go to the hospital directly. This time it was mandatory, and a few more people might be able to persuade Lao Tan.

"Old Tan is too tired." Swallow said.

"No one can replace him now, and everything is pointed at him." Zhang Yu said.

"If he was in the provincial capital, he could go home every day, see his wife and children, and feel better. Here—he must have someone to take care of him." Yanzi sighed, thinking about the situation of Lao Tan and his wife.

"Zhou Xiaomei lives on the first floor with him, so I can take care of everything." Zhang Yu said.

"Actually, he and his wife have a bad relationship, and have been sleeping in separate rooms for more than ten years." Yanzi muttered.

"I heard from Zhou Xiaomei."

"What's your fate? Old Tan has a good son. He's excellent. He's [-] this year. He's very independent and knows everything. I haven't seen him for more than two years. I think he's growing up again."

Swallow said and put her daughter down gently.

The little guy was dishonest, so he turned over and began to crawl. Unfortunately, his hands and feet were not so strong, and he couldn't crawl out after working for a long time, which made his parents laugh happily.

"I wonder, why not divorce?" Zhang Yu said.

Yanzi gave her husband a blank look, and said, "Who has the older son to get divorced? Besides, it's not a good life. They just sleep in separate rooms. There is nothing serious about it. His wife is good to the children, and Lao Tan is often not at home. I saw that he brought the child up cleanly and stood at attention, very sensible, like a young adult."

"You brought our girl like that." Zhang Yu said.

"What the hell, do you think it can't be done? From now on, I don't care about anything else, just take care of my daughter at home, and make sure to bring her up beautifully, cleanly and neatly. When she grows up, she will be a talented girl, a top student of Tsinghua University and Peking University."

Zhang Yu smiled, "Just be better than her mother."

"What the hell? Are you not good enough for you?" Swallow raised his eyes.

"Let's do it, it's still for my daughter's sake."

"Get lost! From today on, I will be treated the same as Old Tan, and go back to your little black room."

"Ha ha."

Zhang Yu stood up with a mean smile, took advantage of Yanzi's surprise and kissed her hard on the cheek, and then went to take a bath.

After Zhang Yu left, Yanzi was a little worried. She first called Zhou Xiaomei and asked about Lao Tan's condition in detail, and then called Yanhua, telling Yanhua to take Lao Tan to the hospital when she returned to the provincial capital. Check it out and convince him to be hospitalized.

When dealing with Lao Tan, Yanzi and Yanhua have the same feelings.The two of them are good sisters, and Lao Tan and the three of them are partners, friends, and relatives who have gone through ups and downs together.

The feelings and friendship of the three of them can no longer be measured by the definition of friends.

In the evening, Zhou Xiaomei brought the packed dumplings and vegetables to a bungalow area not far in front of the Jinqiao store. This is the home of Xiaojun Xiaoying's brother and sister.

Since getting acquainted with this pair of little brothers and sisters, Zhou Xiaomei has developed incomparable love and distress for the two children, which may be due to becoming a mother.

Of course, kindness still plays an absolute factor. In this world of ours, kindness is always the most beautiful.

Whether you are a successful person or an ordinary person, if you have a kind and honest heart, you will have a clear conscience and be praised by others.

Xiaojun is doing his homework.The sensible child knows the situation at home, and has already started to help his father with some housework. He has also learned to cook. Although he can't cook well, it tastes delicious.

My younger sister Xiaoying is completely cured, the child does not hide the disease, and starts to be alive and kicking when he recovers, with an innocent smile on his face.

Grandma has also improved and can work in the fields, but she can't exert much strength.

The child's father is 40 years old, a loyal and honest man.I came back from Jining once, thanked Lao Tan and Zhou Xiaomei in person at the hotel, and brought the child's hospitalization expenses.Lao Tan confiscated it, and sincerely said to take the money back and give it to the child.

Zhou Xiaomei bought a mobile phone for Xiaojun this time, so that it will be convenient to contact him in the future, and he can call directly if he has anything to do.

"Xiaojun, have you been rated as a three-good student again?" Zhou Xiaomei asked while looking at the newly posted certificate of merit on the wall.

"Yeah." Xiaojun replied with some embarrassment.

"Brother is amazing, Aunt Xiaomei, I will be a good student when I go to school." Sister Xiaoying said enviously.

"Okay, Xiaoying is also good." Zhou Xiaomei pulled Xiaoying over and sat on her lap. "Xiaoying, it's time for kindergarten."

"Well, Dad said that he will pay me the park fee next time when he comes back, so I can go."

"When you go to kindergarten, you have to be obedient, and strive to get little red flowers every day."

"Ah."

Xiaoying strongly agreed.

The grandma on the side took a thin wrinkled hand and gently wiped away a tear from the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.
