The proprietress was slightly stunned, the look on her face was reversed several times, a little excited and a little frightened, her lips trembled slightly, and her voice trembled: "You mean...... That Yu ......?! ”

Yu Yinyin smiled silently.

The proprietress was suddenly overflowing with joy, she covered her mouth and widened her eyes, and slowly, there was water vapor under her eyes that slowly rose, and even her hands trembled a little. She pushed open the door of the hotel again, rushed straight to the background wall, and her fingers touched the photo frame by frame, and finally stopped on an old black and white photo.

In the photo, a young couple is standing in front of the hotel with a big fat boy in their arms, and behind them, there is a slightly blurred but straight back......

I don't know when, Yu Yinyin also walked to her side, also looked at the traces left by these years with emotion, and sighed and said: "Gu Li, this promise, you have kept it too hard. ”

The proprietress shook her head imperceptibly, and the corners of her lips rose more and more: "Curator, we can afford to keep it." ”

Time back to many, many years ago, what was Xinjiang Province like at that time? It cannot be said that the people are not living well, but it is indeed an extremely dark time.

At this time, it was at a time of drastic development in the interior of China, but for the remote provinces of Xinjiang, people were still living in the oppression of the superiors, living a miserable and poor life.

One day, Gulee's grandfather brought back a stranger. This man was a little old, with gray hair and unkempt hair, but his eyes were still clear and bright, and there were flashes of fine light from time to time. The arrival of this man has made the already not wealthy family even worse. At that time, Gu Li's father was not yet born, but his grandmother could give birth at any time, and the two of them saved money to save a little more food for their children.

But on the first day this old man came, he ate up the rations of the little couple for three days. Gul's grandmother looked at the thinning food bag and was worried. She couldn't bear to drive this homeless old man away, but she was also reluctant to give up the family's rations. After thinking about it for several days, he still called Gu Li's grandfather and asked him to quickly drive people away.

Gu Li's grandfather disagreed, it was difficult for their locals to survive in this cold and snowy place, let alone this stranger who was unfamiliar with the place. After a few arguments, Gul's grandmother finally gave in.

One morning after another week, Gu Li's grandmother suddenly started, and her whole body seemed to have been pricked by a long needle, and her whole body was throbbing. It was snowing outside, and there was no way to take a car to the health center. Seeing that grandma's strength was getting weaker and weaker, and the beads of sweat on her head were getting denser and denser, Gu Li's grandfather was so panicked that he collapsed to the ground.

At this moment, the white-haired old man made a move, and he didn't know what kind of soup he was boiling, which was yellow and clear. Gu Li's grandmother took a sip, only to feel a wave of anger coming out of her internal organs, and everyone was a lot stronger. When half of the bowl was eaten, it was really a flush on his face, and he grabbed the quilt with both hands, and the kid fell to the ground.

The white-haired old man hugged the child, saw that his face was bruised, dipped his finger in a drop of soup and put it on the tip of his tongue, and gently pinched his nose to let him mix saliva into his stomach. Then he slapped the child's buttocks hard, again and again...... A minute later, loud cries finally resounded throughout the dilapidated bungalow.

Later, the young couple realized that this was a homeless man, and he was a hermit old man at all.

With the passage of time, many good policies in the inland have gradually been implemented in Xinjiang Province, and people's living environment is getting better and better. With the financial support of the white-haired old man, Gul's grandfather opened a restaurant for the poor.

This is the origin of the hotel.

The old man's temper is a little weird, he can touch a small yellow croaker weighing a few catties, and he has a wonderful cooking skill, but he only asks Gu Li's grandfather to cook simple dishes. Gul's grandmother was puzzled and asked why.

The white-haired old man smiled, stroked his beard with a bit of a fairy style, and asked her: "You have such a small amount of money in your hand, do you dare to eat dishes that are made like flowers?" ”

Of course you wouldn't dare.

In this way, the old hotel gradually became famous in this small county. The rich disdain, but the poor love it, because they can eat with the least amount of money and taste as much as a high-priced restaurant.

After a few more years, the old man couldn't hold on anymore, and when he was dying, he took out several small yellow croakers and handed them to Gu Li's grandfather, with only one request: to keep the old restaurant going.

For this promise, the Guli family has been sticking to it for three generations. From her grandfather to her father to her. Gu Li thought, when he can't do it, let his son keep it, and his son will have grandchildren when he is gone......

It has been passed down from generation to generation, for the old man's last wishes, and for that faith.

The proprietress smiled and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, she pointed to one photo after another, "Curator, look, everyone who comes to me smiles differently than others." It was a smile from the bottom of my heart, a sincere gesture of gratitude.

Yu Yinyin breathed a sigh of relief, and also recalled with her, she has been in the county for many years, if she hadn't accidentally found that photo, I'm afraid she wouldn't know that Yu Qiming's last stop was actually to the distant frontier.

"When spring begins, if the little girl of the Yu family is still here, I have to take her to sweep the tomb." The proprietress muttered.

"Yes."

……

On the sofa in the old house, a father and daughter are sitting under criticism.

Xiao Hei watched the excitement for a long time without knowing why, ignoring the eyes of the master to make it, and ran over with Xiao Waiba in a dignified manner, happily rubbing left and right on her legs.

Yu Jian kicked it slightly, trying to keep it away from this dispute. Unexpectedly, the little guy didn't appreciate it at all, tilted his head and stared at her for a while, and jumped to her knees with a "meow".

Yu Jian closed her eyes, and sure enough, before a second came, her mother's gaze glanced over coldly, followed by a less polite word: "Are you still in the mood to play with cats?" Did you hear what I said, Jane? ”

"Yes, yes, yes! I promise that I will have a good rest tonight and don't think about the hotel! Yu Jian raised her hands in surrender.

Liu Liping looked at her perfunctory movements, and laughed angrily, and then looked at Yu Jianguo, who was also a dead pig next to her, who was not afraid of boiling water...... The anger is not even more in one place! Thinking about it, I felt a grievance in my heart, my mouth was deflated, and my emotions came as soon as I said: "I'm easy, am I?!" I finally found my daughter, thinking about taking good care of her when she was sick. As a result, people didn't appreciate it at all, and ran away with outsiders......"

Yu Jian's tone stopped, and she hurriedly waved Xiao Hei away to hold her mother's hand. When he was sitting on the sofa, he deliberately squeezed Yu Jianguo away, and whispered: "Mom, I was wrong, I promise to listen to you obediently in the future......"

"Really?" Liu Liping opened her eyes with a fake cry, quite a little disbelieving.

Yu Jian nodded heavily: "That's for sure!" ”

"Okay!" Liu Liping was happy now, took her daughter's hand and said quickly, "Then you hurry up and pack your luggage, and we will go back to the capital tomorrow!" ”
