Open restaurant

Just because of a bowl of cold rice in rainy days

Huang Liangfen, the sponsor of Yueqing's "Yuhua Zhai" public welfare vegetarian restaurant, is a oyster ash kiln village. He has been doing business in Shanghai before. He is also the head of a "Yuhua Zhai" public welfare vegetarian restaurant in Shanghai. It mainly provides free meals for the elderly. One day in the late autumn of 2016, she returned to her family from Shanghai to visit her relatives and found that a elementary school student squatted under the eaves at the door of the house and was eating lunch. "It was raining that day, it was particularly cold, and the wind was very strong. This bowl of rice was cold." Huang Liangfen said that she went up and asked that there was no cafeteria in the elementary school in her back door. Basically, they were standing and squatting.

"I was really distressed when I saw it at that time. I thought of herself when I was a child." Huang Liangfen said that at the beginning of her school, she also went to school with rice and vegetables ... I thought in her heart: since I already had office welfare The experience of a vegetarian restaurant, why not do one at home? Then the children can sit on a hot lunch.

"We are usually in Shanghai, and the house at home is also empty. There are more than 100 square meters on the first floor. The school is more than ten meters away from my house. This is the best restaurant." After that, everyone was very supportive, especially her five crickets, not only paying for money, but also helping to prepare everything in the restaurant together.

"I really didn't think so much at that time. I went out 30,000 yuan myself. A caring person in Liushi learned about this and sent 50,000 yuan in money. Hundreds of land donated tens of thousands of yuan, and the restaurant was like this. "Huang Liangfen recalled.

6 years of persistence

Let the masses from doubt to praise

When he started to run a restaurant, the villagers also gossip. "This is not good in Shanghai business. When you come back to run a restaurant, it is free, and there must be any other purpose behind it." Huang Liangfen said, don't say that you don't know about this, even his relatives Suspicious attitude.

"Actually, I don't have any ambitions, and I don't want to prove anyone to see it. I just want to have more money in my hand. The children are looking forward to this meal every day, and then this matter is one day." Huang Liangfen said.

After the restaurant opened, except for a chef, the rest was employed, and the rest were volunteers. Over time, those who saw the "lively" gradually lost their voice, and some even joined the volunteer team.

"Our volunteers are basically aunt around 60 years old. These aunts have my relatives, friends, neighbors, and two long -term help volunteers." Huang Liangfen said that these aunts heard that there is a restaurant for students with free lunch here. Later, voluntarily came to help wash vegetables, cut vegetables, clean up, etc.

Lin Qiongzhu is the first batch of volunteers in the restaurant and the younger of the volunteers. He has served in the restaurant for 6 years. "The children who came to eat every day from the initial naughty troubles and then could politely say the transformation of the volunteers'" thank you ", which really made me feel very pleased." Lin Qiongzhu said.

Chen Shengzheng, 78, is a native of Oyster Gray Kiln Village and has also worked as a volunteer in the restaurant. "I am close to the restaurant. As long as I have time, I will help. When I exercise, I can do it, but I can do it, but I can dry the table, sweep the floor, and clean up the chopsticks." She said.

"Yuhua Zhai" flutter "warm taste"

Why is there no cafeteria in this elementary school?

According to Chen Hairong, the principal of the second primary school of Chengdong, the small school -scale running scale and limited campus area of ​​the second primary and five -day campus of Chengdong East East are not available in the cafeteria. More than 100 students in the school are mainly children of new residents.

It is understood that because most students come from the family of front -line employees of local companies, the corporate employees have a short break at noon, and it is difficult to ensure that they provide normal lunch for their children. This free vegetarian restaurant solves lunch problems for their children.

"The children of relatives were studying here before, and learned that there was a free lunch here. I also sent my child to school this year. This restaurant really solved our worries for us." Will donate some rice and vegetables to the restaurant to express their gratitude.

Xiaoxu in the fourth grade of the school has had a free lunch in the restaurant for a few years. The little girl is particularly well -behaved. After dinner, she will take the initiative to stay to help pack the tableware. "Grandma is very hard, I want to help them." This sentence made Huang Liangfen red eyes. "It is not difficult to say a free restaurant, but the children's warm words can always move everyone. "

When starting from the restaurant, the volunteers told the children how much they had to eat, they did not waste food, and learned to be grateful. Now that children can quietly drink all the food CDs in the plate, even drinking the soup, and some senior children will take the initiative to help clean up. Volunteers have long regarded these children as their children.
