Chapter 500: Meeting a noble person when going out When
the restaurant has accumulated a certain number of customers, it starts to adopt a reservation system. Generally, reservations must be made two or three days in advance to get a seat. Guests who have made lunch reservations will cancel their reservations before 12:30, and the seats will be given to guests queuing on the spot.
If you fail to make a reservation more than twice, you will never be able to make a reservation again.
The style, taste, and reception capacity of the restaurant are all placed here. Guests who can make a reservation will generally come.
Even if you don’t come, you will ask your relatives and friends to come.
Therefore, the small restaurant is busy and orderly, and there are no empty seats.
It was not until two o'clock that the last table of guests was sent away, and then I started to eat.
When had Zhong Dingbang's family ever eaten such delicious food? It simply overturned their perception of food.
Zhong's mother felt that she had cooked for decades in vain.
Obviously, the ingredients are the same, but when they arrive in the capital, everything is different here.
Therefore, Zhong's mother is more determined to keep her grandson with Peng Yan to enjoy a good life.
Old Man Du usually leaves early after dinner, but today, maybe because Anzi has caught his eye, he has been teasing Anzi.
Su Taotao asked Old Man Du directly: "Do you have a small courtyard nearby? A small courtyard big enough for Anzi and his family will be fine."
Old Man Du paused while pinching Anzi's cheek, and narrowed his dim old eyes: "Are they going to stay?"
Zhong's mother was surprised, looking at her equally confused son, are you talking about them? Are they going to stay?
Peng Yan replied, "Yes, Mr. Du, I'm staying in Taotao Store to help out during the summer vacation. It's rare for my family to come over. Staying in a guesthouse is expensive and inconvenient, so I want to rent a small courtyard to live in."
Mother Zhong shook her head and said, "I won't stay here. There are many things to do at home. The fight is about to start again. Dingbang can stay for a few more days. As for Anzi, if it's convenient for you to take him with you, you can stay."
Mother Zhong couldn't figure out what Peng Yan meant. Since she came to the capital to attend university, she only reported to her family once that she was safe. After that, she seemed to have disappeared.
The villagers laughed at their family, saying that they had married a golden phoenix, but now they flew back to the city to fetch water with a bamboo basket.
There were all kinds of ugly words.
Mother Zhong was a "little leader" and had a tough personality, so these words didn't reach Anzi's ears.
Otherwise, it would be so painful.
The current policy is that single educated youth can return to the city, but those with families are not allowed to go back. Some educated youth in the village who failed to get into college went to great lengths to get divorced with their local partners in order to return to the city. Even
if some were admitted to college, they were anxious to sever ties with their local partners.
The educated youth were originally city kids, and they had no choice but to go to the countryside. They looked down on the peasants who worked in the fields, but they had to marry the peasants for various reasons.
Returning to the city was something they had been looking forward to for many years.
Now that they have the opportunity, they naturally want to go back to the city at all costs.
Some are really desperate. A few years ago, some educated youth took drugs to deliberately damage their bodies in order to return to the city.
Now some are real divorces, and some are fake divorces. x
As the director of the Women's Department, Zhong's mother deals with these trivial matters every day. No one can tell the truth from the false.
When they went to the countryside, they responded to the call of the country. Now they are returning to the city because of the policy. No one can say that it is anyone's fault.
It is the children of these educated youth who have suffered.
Other female educated youth can abandon their husbands and children after being admitted to a normal college, but Peng Yan was admitted to the best university in the country.
Zhong's mother knew her son's weight and weight. At the beginning, her family did not agree that he would marry Peng Yan, but Zhong Dingbang seemed to be under a spell and was obsessed with marrying Peng Yan.
When Peng Yan encountered such a thing at that time, she lost her virginity and had no hope of survival. She was ready to die. If it were not for the loyal and kind Zhong Dingbang who was determined to marry her, the grass on her grave should have been taller than Anzi.
Everyone knows that Peng Yan is a victim, but in this day and age, losing one's chastity before marriage is shameful after all.
Although the Zhong family did not agree with this marriage, they treated her well after the marriage and truly regarded her as a family member. The incident was never mentioned. When other members mentioned it, they were scolded by the tough mother Zhong.
After the marriage, Zhong Dingbang treated her like a treasure. He never let her work in the fields, and even did not let her wash clothes.
At most, he let her do some light housework, such as feeding the chickens and sweeping the floor. After giving birth to Anzi, he devoted himself to taking care of the child.
This freed up a lot of time for her to read and study.
Peng Yan had good academic performance before going to the countryside, and she had never put down her books in these years. Now, after the resumption of the college entrance examination, she was admitted to the best university.
Their whole family was happy for her, but they were also worried about their son.
Zhong Dingbang was very calm. As long as Peng Yan was fine, he was fine.
He had already told Zhong's mother before coming here that Peng Yan had suffered a lot these years and it was not easy for her to get through it. If Peng Yan insisted on divorcing him, please don't make things difficult for her and let her be happy.
As for An Zi, it was up to Peng Yan.
Zhong's mother hated her son so much that she pinched her son's ears and scolded him for being useless.
Peng Yan wanted to leave or fly away, and she had no control over it. But An Zi was her dearest child, and she couldn't give him to Peng Yan no matter what, so she was determined to come with her.
The whole village had let her down, and their Zhong family had done her justice, and Zhong Dingbang had not let her down. She wanted to ask Peng Yan in person if she was so ungrateful and if she wanted to snatch An Zi from her.
But now Zhong's mother really couldn't figure out what Peng Yan meant. Did she not plan to divorce?
Peng Yan looked at Zhong's mother and said, "Mom, it's rare for you to come to the capital. Stay a few more days. I'm on vacation anyway, so I'll take you around.
As for Dingbang, Taotao meant that the hotel will be expanding soon and will have to recruit people. It's better to let Dingbang stay to help.
As for Anzi, I'll find a nursery for him after the summer vacation. I'll send him there and pick him up in the morning and evening." Chenchen,
who was still busy eating, raised his head from the big bowl and said, "My uncle and I can help pick up Anzi."
Chenchen didn't know why, but he liked Anzi very much.
Not to mention Zhong's mother, even Zhong Dingbang was confused.
Zhong Dingbang looked at Peng Yan stupidly. Before he came, he had already prepared that Peng Yan wanted to divorce him.
Su Taotao smiled and said, "The population check is strict now, but Peng Yan is a college student at Huaqing University, and her household registration and food relationship have been transferred to the school. She will report to the school and the street office, and your brigade will issue a visit certificate to prove that Brother Zhong is staying to take care of the child. He will report to the street office at a fixed time every month. It's not a big problem."
It is indeed not easy to stay these days, but the policy is not so rigid. There are actually quite a few people who stay in the city for various reasons, such as injuries, visits to relatives, etc.
As long as the procedures are complete and you don't become a street stalker, you won't be driven away. Old
man Du, who had half-closed his eyes, suddenly opened his eyes:
"Why bother so much? I will issue you a work certificate and you can stay here normally.
I have two rooms in the yard next door, so you can live there first."
Old man Du was mysterious and had all kinds of tricks. Su Taotao was too lazy to ask what kind of work certificate it was.
But his method was indeed the most direct and simple. As long as it can be proved that Zhong Dingbang had a formal job, even if it was a temporary job, he would have legal residence and would not have to worry about the future.
Mother Zhong was simply stunned by this series of surprises.
Did she check the almanac before going out, and that's why she met so many nobles in the capital?
Or is it that the capital is full of good people?
