Yan Bugui also sighed: "Yes, Director, we are counting on you to get the money and the people back."

Zhang Datou said seriously: "Don't worry, we will do our best to solve this case."

At He Ji Restaurant, police officers found Qin Jingru and took her to the police station.

Qin Jingru was a little panicked at first, but when she learned that it was about Xu Damao, her expression became complicated.

She hesitated for a while before she began to tell what she knew about Xu Damao.

Qin Jingru said: "Xu Damao has always been restless and has been thinking about getting rich all the time. He and You Fengxia have known each other for a long time, and I think they have bad intentions."

Zhang Datou listened carefully, not missing any clue.

After some investigation and analysis, the police finally locked down some traces of Xu Damao and You Fengxia as well as information about some other criminals, and they began to hunt down the criminals with all their might.

After several days and nights of intense pursuit, the police finally found Xu Damao and You Fengxia in a county town near the border of Jingzhou.

It’s a pity that all their money had been taken away by Li Huaide, and Xiaodang and Huaihua had been sold for 1000 yuan each and their whereabouts disappeared.

Qin Huairu went completely crazy after hearing the news!

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were also sighing in the compound, and their children no longer came to visit them.

Their hearts were filled with desolation. The days when they were once arrogant in the compound were gone forever. Now they were in such a situation where no one cared about them, and they could only sigh helplessly.

But this time, there is no longer the silly Zhu in the original book to pay for their actions.

They looked at the deserted yard, feeling extremely regretful, but they also knew it was too late.

At the same time, He Yuzhu's business began to flourish.

As soon as the sign of He Ji Restaurant was put up, the restaurant was packed every day and was extremely lively.

Diners come from all directions just to taste the delicious dishes that combine the four major cuisines and the top-notch ancestral "Tan family cuisine".

He Yuzhu is well aware that this is the result of his own hard work, and also the inheritance and innovation of traditional cuisine.

After selling a large number of antiques, he began to expand his business, opening branches at the city and county levels, and also planned to open He Ji Restaurants all over the country.

Recently, he recruited new students and provided on-site guidance personally.

He integrated the spicy and fresh flavors of Sichuan cuisine, the mellow and rich flavors of Shandong cuisine, the exquisiteness and delicacy of Huaiyang cuisine, and the deliciousness and diversity of Cantonese cuisine, so that people from all over the country can taste the flavors they want and feel like they are back home.

The delicious dishes not only satisfy the taste buds of diners, but also convey their longing for hometown and yearning for a better life.

In addition, the ancestral "Tan family cuisine" was also prepared and became the top-notch high-end dishes of He Ji Restaurant.

The Tan cuisine has attracted many high-end diners with its unique cooking techniques and exquisite selection of ingredients.

Every dish of the Tan family is carefully prepared by He Yuzhu, as if telling the family's history and heritage.

On this day, He Yuzhu was instructing an apprentice in the kitchen of Heji Restaurant. He patiently explained the cooking techniques and key points, and the apprentice listened attentively, his eyes full of desire for knowledge.

At this moment, a waiter came over and said, "Mr. He, there is an old man outside. He said he is your father, He Daqing..."

"Father..." He Yuzhu felt a little regretful, and suddenly thought that this was the original owner's father who came back.

A complex emotion suddenly surged in his heart, and those past memories and pains flooded into his mind like a tide.

"Let him go, I don't have a father..." He Yuzhu said without turning his head.

His voice was cold and resolute, as if he wanted to cut off everything in the past.

I remember that in the original novel, Xu Damao brought He Daqing back from Baoding City in order to make things difficult for He Yuzhu.

But he was not content to live his retirement life after returning home, and even started a twilight romance with Lou Xiao'e's mother. This philandering old man was thinking about finding another woman until his death. He is really not a good person.

After saying this, He Yuzhu began to teach his disciples again.

He tried hard to focus on teaching and put aside all distracting thoughts.

However, he could not calm down, and memories of his father kept coming to his mind.

After a while, another waiter came to report.

"Mr. He, that old man can't be driven away. He came back and said you are his son and he must see you today..."

He Yuzhu frowned, a complex emotion surging in his heart.

He knew that he had to see her today whether he wanted to or not.

He stopped teaching his apprentice, was silent for a moment, and said, "Bring him to my office."

The waiter took the order and left. After a while, he brought He Daqing to He Yuzhu's office.

When He Daqing walked into the office and saw He Yuzhu, a hint of excitement and guilt flashed in his eyes.

His figure seemed a little hunched, and the years had left deep marks on his face.

"Zhu Zi, Dad knows he was wrong. I have let you down over the years." He Daqing's voice trembled a little, and his eyes were full of regret and self-blame.

He Yuzhu looked at the old man in front of him, and the resentment in his heart had not completely dissipated.

He said coldly: "Why did you come back? Did the White Widow die and her three sons drive you out of the house?..."

He Daqing was a little surprised after hearing what He Yuzhu said!

How come he knows so much about my own affairs? Isn't it just that I am an old widower living alone in Baoning Dingcheng, and I couldn't make it anymore, so I came back to find him?

His heart was filled with confusion and helplessness.

"Zhu Zi, I had my reasons for leaving you and Yu Shui back then!..." He Daqing tried to explain, with a hint of urgency in his voice.

"Tell me, tell me what your difficulties are." He Yuzhu's eyes were full of questioning, he wanted a reasonable explanation.

"Back then, I, Dad, I really couldn't say it..." He Daqing lowered his head, his eyes full of pain and helplessness.

"You can do it but can't say it. Are you still a man?" He Yuzhu said loudly, his voice full of anger.

"Since you can't say it, let me say it for you! You were tricked by Yi Zhonghai and slept with the White Widow. They wanted to sue you, but you didn't want to go to jail, so you went to Baoding with the White Widow..."

"Zhu Zi, how do you know everything..." He Daqing's face showed surprise and shame.

"If I didn't know, I would have been eaten by those beasts in the yard until only bones were left..." He Yu said unhappily.

He Daqing sighed and said slowly: "Zhu Zi, Dad knows that I was wrong in the past.

Over the years, my father has suffered a lot outside.

Now that I am old, I want to come back to see you and make up for what I have done to you over the years."
