"The dove occupies the magpie's nest" is from the "Book of Songs, Zhaonan, Magpie's Nest", "Wei Magpie has a nest, and Wei Gu lives in it." It originally referred to the man's intention to build a family and marry his wife. The latter metaphor is to forcibly occupy someone else's house or occupy someone else's position.

In the animal world, doves occupy magpies' nests, and magpies are often helpless. If the same thing happened in human society, what would be the outcome?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In 1992, when the clarion call of "reform and opening up" had resounded throughout the land of China, and when the pace of "reform and opening up" spread all over the north and south of the river like a spring breeze, Pujiang City, the former prosperous international metropolis, finally started its new journey after a long period of silence and waiting.

Jiangbei District, located in the northeast corner of the downtown area of Pujiang, was originally a factory area, and compared with other downtown areas, it seems to be desolate and deflated, quite a slum. On the side of an inconspicuous road in Jiangbei District, there is an inconspicuous small restaurant, but in this year, like Pujiang City, it has ushered in its new journey. At the beginning of the new year in 1992, this small restaurant called "Sanfeng Zhai" was transformed from a streetside fly restaurant that used to occupy only one shop to a small restaurant with two floors.

The small restaurant is run by a father and son surnamed An. The older man's name is Andafei, and he is 57 years old this year. Seven years ago, he resolutely resigned from his position as the lobby manager of a state-run hotel and opened a small restaurant of his own, named "Sanfeng Zhai". Although this is only a street shop that occupies less than 20 square meters, it is a long-cherished wish for Anda Fei.

Anda Fei was born in Jianghuai, and his hometown is rich in "three knives" - a head razor, a pedicure knife and a kitchen knife. And Andafei's ancestor was a cook with a kitchen knife in his hand. Influenced by his family, at the age of 12, Anda Fei was sent by his family to work as an apprentice in a famous restaurant in the town.

That restaurant is called "Three Feasts". The reason why it was named so was because the proprietors at that time were very proud of their own food, believing that it had both bright color, tangy aroma, and delicious taste, which could be said to be full of color, flavor, and taste.

On the eve of the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, the operators of "Sanfeng Zhai" finally chose to close the country in the turbulent years because of the uncertainty of the future and the fear of the unknown, and fled with their families and crossed the ocean to go overseas.

Anda Fei only worked as an apprentice for two years in the "Three Full Fast", but the bustling prosperity of the "Three Full Fast" when it opened left a deep imprint on his mind. He vowed that when he succeeds in his studies in the future, he will definitely open a restaurant like "Sanfeng Zhai".

After liberation, Anda Fei went south with his family to make a living. Two years later, he landed an apprenticeship at a state-run restaurant. From washing dishes and vegetables, to cutting and spooning, Anda Fei has taken one step at a time, walking steadily and steadily. After more than 30 years of hard work, he eventually reached the peak of his career as the lobby manager of this restaurant. In the days to come, as long as he does not make mistakes, he can retire peacefully and live a peaceful old age. However, that dream in my heart has to be stirred up from time to time. When he dreams back at midnight, he can always see the bright golden sign of "Three Full Fasts". When will you be able to have your own "three full fasts"? Will this dream always be just a dream?

Time came to the eighties of the twentieth century, with the continuous advancement of the policy of "reform and opening up", "self-employed" became a new term. Seeing the opportunity, Anda Fei could no longer hold back the throbbing in his heart, and finally made another important choice in his life at the age of 50. He poured out his savings from years of work, rented a shop on the side of a small road in Jiangbei City, and began to run a restaurant that truly belonged to him. When choosing the name of the restaurant, Andafi did not hesitate to write down the words "three full fasts". This is not only where his childhood dream began, but also where his current dream comes true.

Although the area of the restaurant is not large, if you really want to run it, you can't rely on Anda Fei alone, and if you want to hire someone to help, it is no longer allowed in terms of funds. After completing all the purchases required for the store, Anda Fida had no extra funds to turn over. In desperation, he set his sights on his eldest son, who was working as a driver in a tractor factory.

An Dafei has two sons, the eldest son is named An Huaisheng, who is 32 years old; The youngest son's name is An Pusheng, who is 28 years old. After his wife passed away at an early age, he has been dependent on his son, and now the two sons have also married and had children, but they still live with Andafei.

At first, Andafei resigned to open a restaurant, but his two sons did not agree with it, and he relied on his own way to open the restaurant. Now, he not only has to do it himself, but also pulls his son to help him, I wonder how his son will feel? To his surprise, An Huaisheng readily agreed after learning that An Dafei was going to drag him to open a restaurant together. This made An Dafei a little overjoyed, so he was deeply moved, and he made a hot promise that no matter what the restaurant looks like in the future, it will eventually belong to An Huaisheng.

In this way, the restaurant "Sanfeng Zhai", which has been closed in Jianghuai for decades, opened again in Pujiang City. Seven years later, it expanded from a small shop to a two-story restaurant. On the day of the opening of the new store, amid the rumbling sound of firecrackers, Anda Fei looked at the new gold-lettered signboard and couldn't help crying with joy. He hopes that his "three full fasts" can continue to grow in his own hands, and he hopes that his children and grandchildren can take care of this hard-won small restaurant as carefully as he does.

Just as Anda Fei was planning the future of "Three Full Fasts" with great ambition, a thunderbolt suddenly flashed in the clear sky above his head, and An Huaisheng proposed to him to "quit".

"Now that the country's economic prospects are very good, I want to go out and start my own business." That's what An Huaisheng said to An Dafei.

"What kind of business do you start? Now that the restaurant is thriving, it will definitely be better in the future than it is now, isn't it good for you to guard it with me? Andafei said in a low voice.

"I don't want to just run a small restaurant, I have bigger dreams and I want to do bigger things." An Huaisheng said ambitiously.

"A bigger cause?" Anda Fei said angrily, "You're almost forty years old, what else can you achieve?" They all say that forty is not confused, can't you settle down? ”

"Aren't you fifty years old and still running a restaurant? I'm only forty years old, so why can't I work harder? An Huaisheng sneered.

"But what can you do? What else do you do but drive? You don't have the skills to do it! Anda Fei retorted with a serious face.

"Now that you're not concentrating on running a restaurant, don't you read newspapers or read anymore?" An Huaisheng dismissed, "Now is a good time for reform and opening up, there are business opportunities everywhere in Tiannanhaibei, and many factories have been opened in southern coastal cities, clothing, bags, toys, handicrafts...... Whatever you want, and at a low price. I just have to go there and wholesale some goods and sell them back, and I can make a lot of money. It's faster and more profitable than opening a restaurant. ”

"Wholesale goods need principal, where are you going to get the money?"

"I have some savings around me......"

"I'm afraid that money is not enough!" An Dafei interrupted him and said worriedly, "You usually don't calculate, you are used to spending money lavishly, I know, you can't have too much savings." ”

"But I have a restaurant!" An Huaisheng replied disappreciatively.

"If you don't think about the idea of a restaurant, I won't allow you to sell it." An Dafei suddenly straightened his face and said sharply.

"I didn't say I wanted to sell it, why are you in a hurry?" An Huaisheng hurriedly explained, "You once told me that this restaurant will belong to me in the future, right?" Seeing Anda Feihu nodding suspiciously, An Huaisheng continued, "I want to transfer the future management rights now......

"Aren't you still going to sell my restaurant?" Andafei yelled eagerly.

An Huaisheng shook his hands vigorously to stop An Dafei's shouting.

"I'm not selling to someone else, I want to sell to Pusheng."

"Urayu?" As if he hadn't heard clearly, Anda Fei confirmed again.

An Huaisheng nodded vigorously and affirmed, "Yes, Pusheng." ”

"Can Pusheng agree?" Andafi muttered in an uncertain voice.

"How do you know if he'll agree without asking?" An Huaisheng seemed to be confident, "Besides, according to your old saying, this restaurant will definitely be very valuable in the future, he shouldn't have a reason, right?" ”

Anda Fidelity is noncommittal.

"Don't think about it, when Pu Sheng comes back, let's talk to him first." An Huaisheng urged impatiently.
