My father is an ox. He is as strong and strong as an ox, and his personality is as honest and kind as an ox. He loves to think of others, regardless of personal gains and losses. In a word, he is broad-minded and fat.
My mother is a pig, kind, intelligent and hardworking, which brings full blessings to my family.
My father is a pie maker. This kind of cake is a specialty of our village. It has an interesting name-Xuanbing. Our village is called guo zhuang cun, so the full name of this kind of cake is Guo cake.
First, the initial decision
At that time, in order to support me to go to college, at the suggestion of my mother, my father and mother started a cake business together. Our home is in Jianguo Town, Gucheng County, Hengshui City, and wucheng town, Shandong Province is in the east of our town, across the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. Hedong is Shandong and Hexi is Hebei. Our village's toast is famous for 500 miles in Fiona Fang, Fiona Fang. In our local words, the people recognize it. My parents chose a location in Lijiahu Town, Shandong Province. At first, they set up a big tent in this place. It happened in summer and the surrounding environment was very dirty. The two of them spent a lot of time cleaning up all the rubbish around them, and then concentrated on making cakes. Business is booming during the day, and sleeping at night will suffer. There are so many mosquitoes that the two bitten people can't sleep. My father backed out, but my mother insisted and encouraged him. They planned to rent a store here together, so they found a suitable store and rented it at the suggestion of their mother. This is also a place to stay, and their hearts will settle down.
Second, settle down.
This shop has three rooms. We rented two rooms, one for guests to eat and the third for the landlord. There is a small yard in the shop. Father set up a tent outside the store to put pancakes and set some tables and chairs for the guests to eat. The landlord is a young couple. She had a four-or five-year-old son. My name is aunt landlady. She is not tall, about 1.56 meters, chubby, a little dark, very kind and cheerful. She will come to our shop to chat with my mother when she is free. My mother once took my aunt and me shopping in the county. The relationship between the two families is not bad.
Opposite the shop is a restaurant. The male owner of the restaurant is a local, about 50 years old, fat, but with varicose veins in his legs. The boss's family has two daughters. At that time, one got married, one had a four-or five-year-old son, and one had a date. Later, I heard from my mother that during the autumn harvest or wheat harvest, his family's grain was dried in the open space in front of the store, and my father would take the initiative to help the restaurant owner opposite to dry the grain with a shovel or help hoe it in the car and transport it to the backyard. Dad usually goes to his house to chat when he is free. Due to the influence of my parents, I also show more love for others. I was studying in Qinhuangdao at that time. When I came home during the summer vacation, I specially bought some lucky one made of shells for the grandson of the hotel owner and the son of the landlord's aunt. They are very beautiful, and I am glad to let them choose their favorite for them. In this way, our relationship is very good.
Third, start all over again.
My parents have been running a bakery in Lijiahu for two years. They were catching up with the nearby road construction at that time. There are many people eating, and business is ok. Later, because the road was repaired, fewer people ate, and the local economy was not very good, so they left there. Although they left Lijiahu, my father took time to visit the restaurant owner several times. Later, I heard from my mother that the restaurant owner in Lijiahu would call my father. Our landlord will also have time to come to Hexi to sit and chat with my dad. Now the landlord has a five or six-year-old daughter, and the second daughter of the hotel owner is married and has two children. Although the place of life has changed, everyone I have dealt with my father is still thinking about each other. I chose a place, in Xibantun town, north of our Jianguo town. My mother designed two iron houses by herself, which were built by special people. After that, my father drove them here on a tractor. One is specially used to make pancakes for my father. Even in the kitchen, there are four tires under it, which is more convenient to transport. The other is for guests. As a dining room, my mother separated the dining room with a piece of cloth, and put the upper and lower bunks inside, which is relatively simple for two people to live. However, iron houses have great disadvantages. In summer, iron houses will be hot and stuffy. My parents' bedding feels a little damp and uncomfortable. I'm always worried about their health, and it's no use for guests to eat with electric fans. It is also very cold in winter. Later, my parents installed a wall-mounted air conditioner in it, which was much better. In this way, they have been in business for about a year. Later, I kept reminding them that bunk beds were not easy to use. Father was so humbled on the bunk bed that his arm almost touched the roof. My mother decided to cut my big bed in half to make a double bed. In this way, the bed for two people becomes spacious and comfortable. I found that the iron house loves to regain its moisture and I am always worried about my health. So my mother asked my father to lay a wooden floor on the floor of the sleeping space, put wallpaper on the roof, and separate the space with wooden boards to make it a warm room. This way, the rest space for two people is much more reassuring. Later, my mother found that the dining room was limited and decided to build a bigger one, and this small one was specially used for living and putting some goods. In this way, a bigger dining room was built, which was very spacious. Father moved the vertical air conditioner at home to this room to give the guests a more comfortable dining environment. In this way, better business conditions were born, and parents' business and life improved at least one level.
Fourth, lifestyle.
When I am not at home, I always have to deal with some complicated interpersonal relationships. Although this is a small business, I can't avoid some vicious words and deeds of the wicked, but fortunately, due to my mother's wisdom, these are nothing. For example, the place occupied by business belongs to the public. It used to be a desolate place, nobody cared. However, the village party secretary of a nearby village was picky and said it was his home. Several times, my family didn't pay for seven or eight cakes. Forget it. What is even more irritating is that once I took a group of people to dinner, and when one of them wanted to pay the bill, he refused to give his account, which was a breach of contract. Father was timid and angry, so he packed his winter clothes and went home. My mother didn't listen to that and thought about it. Anyway, she knows his wife. It is said that her mother's house and my cousin's house are in the same yard. They both knew each other when they were young, so my mother brought some cakes to his house. When he was not at home, she told his wife, big sister, you can take the cake without money. At this time, this man just came back. His wife saw it and said, Look, who's here? They all went to your house. This time, he said, Oh, I was drunk that morning, I didn't mean to, and his wife made up for it, saying that Xibantun is your share anyway, so do it well. When my mother heard it, it was like a personal statement, so this crisis was solved by my mother. Everyone around us knows that this person is not a good thing and unreasonable. My mother said that people and things like this should be handled calmly. This is just one of the small things, and there are many things that my parents solved with tolerance, forbearance and wisdom. I have a lot of wisdom in them.
Fifth, be grateful to your parents.
My parents' efforts helped me finish my studies smoothly. My father is a cow. He taught me to be diligent and practical, not to care about personal gains and losses, but to think of others. My mother taught me to use my head, to persist in doing things, to have perseverance, to have goals and ideals.
My parents, you are a leafy tree, sheltering us from the wind and rain. You are a shining book that nourishes our wisdom, enlightens us and educates us. ...
I hope that one day my little bird will grow a pair of powerful wings around you, adding luster to you. Mom and dad, I want to be a big hero, take a responsibility and reduce your hard work. I believe this day will come.
