The He family's restaurants also need someone to carry on the tradition, and He Chen's learning of cooking skills may not be without the He family's own intentions. To inherit both restaurants, they definitely need a capable chef.
It's better to train the He family's own children than to train others. Once He Chen has mastered the skills, he can inherit both restaurants. That way, they won't need to worry about the future of the restaurants.
Seeing that the He family had already begun training an heir, Wei Hua also started to pay more attention to his seven children. While he was alive, wasn't Wei Hua worried that anything might happen?
She wasn't young anymore. It was time to properly raise her child. Just as Wei Hua was carefully nurturing her child, the Jia family caused another problem.
Bang Geng has had a rare period of peace and quiet in his business these past two years. Although the business isn't doing very well, it's definitely enough to support his family, and Bang Geng has made quite a bit of money in the past two years.
After half a year of hard work, Bang Geng finally bought his own house. Now that he has a house, Bang Geng wants to get married. Now Bang Geng is no longer young.
The person he was destined to meet still came into his life. Bang Geng fell in love with Tang Yanling as always. The only difference was that Tang Yanling looked down on Bang Geng. No normal woman could possibly like a cripple like Bang Geng.
But Bang Geng was obsessed with Tang Yanling. Even though Tang Yanling didn't like him, Bang Geng kept licking Tang Yanling.
In order to marry Tang Yanling, Bang Geng used every means at his disposal. No matter how Tang Yanling refused, Bang Geng was like an annoying fly, constantly appearing around Tang Yanling.
Seeing that Tang Yanling kept rejecting him, Bang Geng could only try to influence Tang Yanling through her parents. Unfortunately, the Tang family wasn't having an easy time either.
To support their family, Tang Yanling's parents had no choice but to put pressure on her. Under this pressure, Tang Yanling had no choice but to compromise and continue her relationship with Bang Geng, constantly extracting money from him.
Tang Yanling gained a lot from Bang Geng, but she never talked about marriage and wouldn't even let Bang Geng touch her hand.
Seeing that her grandson's marriage was not going smoothly, Madam Jia Zhang kept offering suggestions behind the scenes, but to no avail.
Whether it was a case of heaven rewarding those who persevere or not, Banggeng finally found an opportunity after half a generation of persistence. There were four boys in the Tang family, with Tang Yanling being the third. Coincidentally, her two older brothers also wanted to get married, but they couldn't afford the bride price.
Everyone wants to find a good husband for their daughter. Asking for a larger dowry from the Tang family is fine, so their daughter can have a good life.
Faced with this exorbitant bride price, Tang Yanling's father had no other choice but to ask his daughter to find a solution. Under pressure from her parents, Tang Yanling had no choice but to sacrifice her own happiness so that her two older brothers could find wives.
In order to marry Tang Yanling, Bang Geng had no choice but to grit his teeth and pay an exorbitant dowry. To raise the money, Bang Geng even mortgaged his house to the bank and borrowed more than 10,000 yuan.
Everything was progressing well, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, Tang Yanling was supposed to marry Bang Geng. But then, something unexpected happened to the Jia family.
Jia Zhangshi's health had never been very good, and she was also getting old. When she went out to sell vegetables before dawn, she tripped and fell on a downhill slope.
A fall might not be a big deal for a young person, but Jia Zhangshi is already over 70 years old. She already had health problems, and this heavy fall has left her paralyzed.
Bang Geng had given all his money to the Tang family, leaving him with very little. Then, his grandmother suffered such a terrible accident. Bang Geng used most of his money to treat Jia Zhangshi's illness, keeping only a small amount for purchasing goods, and then stopped worrying about Jia Zhangshi's affairs.
When such a big thing happened to the Jia family, the Tang family found out about it the next day. Tang Yanling, who already had objections to the marriage, immediately felt the urge to call off the engagement.
No young woman wants to take care of a 70-year-old woman. Tang Yanling's two sisters-in-law also felt sorry for their sister-in-law. In addition, Tang's parents had some money, and by scraping together what they could, they managed to scrape together more than 10,000 yuan for the bride price.
Just one week after Jia Zhangshi's accident, the Tang family arrived at the Jia family with a dowry of glutinous rice.
“Young man from the Jia family, it’s not that our Tang family wants to break off the engagement, but your family has gone through such a big incident, and I can’t let my daughter take care of your old lady as soon as she marries into the family.”
"This is the betrothal gift from back then. Now our Tang family is returning it to you, and from now on, we are even."
Tang Yanling's siblings didn't give Bang Geng any chance to refuse; they stuffed the betrothal gifts into Bang Geng's hands and left.
With so many people around, the Tang family wasn't afraid that Bang Geng would renege on his promise. Looking at the money in his hand and the people leaving, Bang Geng was quite helpless.
Banggeng happened to run out of money for his grandmother's medical expenses, so he had to pay some of the medical bills for her. It was very tiring to do it all by himself without anyone's help. He had to go out to sell vegetables before dawn every day, and after selling the vegetables, he had to rush to the countryside to collect vegetables. He was busy until about 10 p.m. before he could go home. After a quick wash, it was already midnight. He had to start preparing to sell vegetables at 3 or 4 a.m. every morning.
He might be able to endure it for a day or two, but over time, even the strongest body couldn't take it. Moreover, Bang Geng's health wasn't good to begin with, and these past few days have significantly weakened his spirits.
Don't expect Banggeng to have much affection for Jia Zhangshi. After Jia Zhangshi recuperated in the hospital for half a month, Banggeng took her back. Even though she was on crutches, Jia Zhangshi had to get up in the middle of the night every day to sell vegetables.
The reason for arriving so early is mainly to arrange the vegetables brought over by Banggeng on the stall. If we don't arrive more than two hours early, we simply won't be able to handle these tasks.
Seeing his grandmother go to sell vegetables, Banggeng finally breathed a sigh of relief. In case anything happened to his grandmother again, Banggeng unusually accompanied Jia Zhangshi to the stall.
Seeing that Jia Zhangshi was able to handle these matters, Banggeng didn't linger at the market. He returned to his lodgings and quickly rested, then drove his oxcart to the countryside to continue collecting vegetables in the evening.
Just as Banggeng was about to reach the village where he often harvested vegetables, a truck suddenly appeared beside him. Banggeng often encountered this kind of thing, and he would just drive the oxcart aside, but this time the situation was a little different.
The truck was loaded with colorful ribbons. Because the rural roads were difficult to navigate, some of the ribbons spilled out. Many of them were red, and the cattle immediately lost control upon seeing them.
The truck in front was speeding along, and the cows behind were chasing after it relentlessly. Seeing this, the cow could only pull the rope with all its might.
The ox seemed to have gone mad, completely ignoring the rope. Even as the steer pulled until it bled, the ox continued to run wildly. At a bend, due to the immense momentum, the harness on the ox was thrown off, and the steer, unable to hold onto the rope, fell off the cart along with the ox.
The old ox, without being locked, kept running after the vehicle. The ox, on the other hand, fell down a slope more than ten meters high.
Even an ordinary person would break a bone sliding down, let alone Banggeng, who was thrown off. The area wasn't particularly remote, and Banggeng was discovered shortly after falling.
Because the slope was quite steep, after discovering someone had fallen, these people, to avoid getting themselves into trouble, only called the police on behalf of Bang Geng. By the time the police arrived, it was already evening.
It was already dark by the time the police called the doctor to rescue him from below. There were no professional ambulances available at that point, so the doctor could only put the dog in the police car and take him to the hospital.
Since Bang Geng had nothing on him to prove his identity, the police could only have the doctor treat him first, and pay the medical bills after he woke up.
The hospital belongs to the state, and since the police had spoken, the doctor didn't refuse and started the surgery on Bang Geng. The doctor set all of Bang Geng's bones back together.
Banggeng's injuries were quite severe; both legs and his spine were broken, and his right hand was also broken due to the violent impact. Although other parts of his body were not as seriously injured, he still sustained numerous injuries.
Fortunately, Bang Geng didn't have any fatal injuries, otherwise it's uncertain whether he would have survived. Given his current condition, even the doctors don't know if Bang Geng will ever be able to walk again.
