378: My daughter is grown up and no longer under the control of her father
When everyone heard the captain's harsh words, they looked at her in silence.
Yu Xiaoye glanced at everyone:
"Anyone object?"
Everyone shook their heads, no one objected.
Yu Xiaoye said:
"Okay then. If no one objects, let's eat. After dinner, we'll gather in the hall."
Everyone took action.
When Shao Xia heard what Yu Xiaoye said, she also stood up with her tired body. Yu Xiaoye said:
"Shao Xia, you should get some sleep first and get up later."
Shao Xia paused, but still insisted on getting up, getting off the kang, taking the lunch box and preparing to go get food.
Seeing that most of the people had left, Yu Xiaoye came to Shao Xia, quietly took out a bag of chocolates from his pocket and stuffed it into Shao Xia's hand.
Shao Xia recognized it as chocolate and a smile appeared on her lips.
Yu Xiaoye then took out a clean white handkerchief from his pocket, opened it, and inside was a piece of jujube flower pastry, which he had taken out from the box of Daoxiangcun pastries that Zhou Ziheng had just given him.
Shao Xia's expression didn't change much when she saw the chocolate.
But when he saw the jujube flower pastry in the handkerchief, his eyes lit up.
Shao Xia was also from Beijing. She recognized it at a glance as the famous Daoxiangcun Zaohuasu (Jujube Flower Pastry) and asked in a hoarse voice:
"Zaohuasu, where did it come from?"
Yu Xiaoye smiled:
"Don't worry about where it comes from, just eat it."
Shao Xia put the lunch box back and stared at the jujube flower pastry lying in her handkerchief. She couldn't refuse the delicacy from her hometown, so she took it, held it in her hand, and looked at it for a long time.
Yu Xiaoye pulled Shao Xia's arm and walked out:
"Come, sit outside and eat."
The two of them went to the outer room and sat at the table. Yu Xiaoye poured Shao Xia a cup of hot water and asked her to drink it with the water.
Shao Xia stared at the jujube flower cake in her hand with emotion. After looking at it for a long time, she took a bite and tasted it carefully:
“It still tastes the same.”
After eating a few bites, Shao Xia said:
"I haven't eaten it for a year or two. When I was a child, every Mid-Autumn Festival, my father would buy a box of Daoxiangcun cakes and bring them home, and we would share it with the whole family. Later, my father went to support construction in the southwest, and he only had a home visit leave once every three years. Whenever he came back, it was not the Mid-Autumn Festival, so we never bought this for the festival anymore."
Yu Xiaoye felt bad after hearing this. She had heard Shao Xia talk about their family situation and knew that Shao Xia's father went to the southwest to support construction when Shao Xia was ** years old and could only come home once every three years.
At that time, the father and daughter could only see each other once every three years.
Later, Shao Xia went to the countryside and came to the Great Northern Wilderness. One was in the southwest and the other was in the northeast, and the two never met again. It has been five years now.
Yu Xiaoye has been with her parents since she was a child and cannot understand the feeling of not being with her parents, but she knows that Shao Xia must miss her father very much, so when she sees this piece of jujube flower pastry, she will be moved by the scene.
Yu Xiaoye suddenly had an idea:
"Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. How about I have someone send a box of Daoxiangcun cakes from Beijing to your dad? If it's quick, maybe your dad can receive the cakes by Mid-Autumn Festival. What do you think?"
Shao Xia was stunned for a moment. She had never thought of sending cakes from Beijing to her father. She didn't do it before because she was young at that time and didn't have the awareness.
I can earn money by going to the countryside, but I'm not in the capital.
Even when I go home to visit my family every year, I come and go in a hurry.
In addition, my mother was in poor health and needed medical treatment, and my younger sister was working in the countryside to earn work points. The conditions were difficult and she needed support from home, so our family was not well off and we never thought about it.
Now, after hearing Yu Xiaoye's proposal, my heart brightened:
"Yes, I can send a box of cakes to my dad so that he can enjoy the food from his hometown in the southwest during the holidays."
Yu Xiaoye said nothing, got up and went back to the inner room, took out a pen and paper and spread it on the table:
"Come, write me your father's mailing address and zip code, and I'll help you with this!"
Shao Xia looked up at the impetuous Yu Xiaoye and wanted to say something, but choked up again. She knew that Yu Xiaoye was a man who valued friendship and loyalty. If he said he wanted to help her, he must be sincere and it was not just a verbal courtesy.
So Shao Xia put down the jujube flower pastry in her hand, took a pen and paper, and wrote down her father's name, mailing address and postal code on it.
After writing, he said:
"Tell me how much it costs to ship the things, and I'll give it to you after I get paid."
Yu Xiaoye glanced at the address, folded it up, and smiled:
"No need to pay, just perform well and someone will reimburse us for the shipping costs."
“Who, who will reimburse me?”
"Don't ask. It will be done for you soon. Then your father will be able to enjoy the cakes sent from the capital."
When Shao Xia thought that her father could eat the same cakes and pastries that she had eaten during her childhood holidays, she felt a sense of happiness in her heart, as if her hope in life had been rekindled, and she felt a little more cheerful.
Nothing can heal the heart more than the delicious food from one's hometown. After eating the jujube flower pastry, Shao Xia returned to the hall to continue rehearsing.
Next, all that’s left is the sunken porcelain.
Based on Yu Xiaoye's understanding of Shen Ci, he still had to give her some time to digest the situation, let her cry first, and then persuade her after she had cried enough.
Otherwise, if we force people back on stage, they will still be crying and won't be able to rehearse.
Back in the meeting hall, Liang Qin found that Chen Ci had not come over and asked what happened.
I heard that Chen Ci's boyfriend was also among those arrested. Chen Ci was devastated and was lying in the dormitory crying.
Liang Qin sighed, adding insult to injury!
Liang Qin has worked in different art troupes for so many years, but she has never seen a performance team with such a tragic fate and so many disasters as this one!
However, Yu Xiaoye showed extraordinary tenacity. He was scared to tears and absent-minded last night, but now he is like nothing happened and continues to lead the team to make final preparations.
Under her leadership, others also became active.
Even Shao Xia was trying to stay busy.

Yu Jiahui also came back to help.
Originally, he was planning to help Zhou Ziheng, but when he thought about Zhou Ziheng secretly plotting against his little Baicai, he became so angry that he was too lazy to help.
Not to mention the estrangement he felt towards Zhou Ziheng, even now when he looked at his own daughter, he felt a estrangement, and couldn't help but think of the saying "A son grows up and is no longer under the control of his mother."
Alas, when a son grows up, he is no longer under the control of his mother; when a daughter grows up, she is no longer under the control of her father.
This girl was actually flirting with Zhou without telling him.
But there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it. Which girl would tell her parents when she falls in love for the first time? Isn't it all done secretly?
But what Yu Jiahui couldn't understand was how this girl could fall in love with a man who was so much older than her?
Yu Jiahui has actually always been mentally prepared for his daughter to fall in love. Ever since his daughter was little, he knew that one day a bad boy would come into the house, call him uncle, and then openly take away the cabbage he had raised with great effort.
But he didn't expect that this brat would show up in such an unexpected way, take the route of flanking, get close to him first, and coax him around.
He thought he had met a close friend and insisted on asking Zhou to become his sworn brother.
Thinking about it now, my face hurts so much!
