On the stage of life, no one can choreograph the script of fate for you. Everyone is a screenwriter of their own destiny, writing life through diligence and wisdom.
This story tells the story of Wang Yuwen, a rural child who, with his own diligence and persistence, does not rely on power and connections, independently carves out a path to success in a difficult environment. His experience is a vivid illustration of the ancient saying: 'Heaven rewards hard work, and self-improvement is unceasing.''。
My name is Wang Yuwen and I am 50 years old. I am the only owner of a home-cooked restaurant in town, and in the past few years, my restaurant business has been getting better and better, and many people envy me.
Because my uncle was the town secretary, many people thought that he had helped me get to where I am today. This is not the case.
I was born in a rural village with four children and both farmers at that time, and it was already very difficult for them to support our four children.
So since we were children, the four of us brothers and sisters have never eaten anything good. But our parents took our education very seriously.
They always tell us that it is only through knowledge that we can change our destiny. So the four of us have been very fond of reading since childhood.
It's a pity at the timeThe conditions in our family are so poor that we can't afford to send the four of us to school. Later, the eldest brother and the second brother directly gave up their studies and went home to farm.
My sister and I went out to work to earn money to pay for our own education. At that time, I had to get up at 5 o'clock in the morning to work in the fields, and I could not get back to my residence until 10 o'clock in the evening.
It's hard work, but as long as I think that I still have a chance to change my fate, I feel that it's nothing. Two years later, he was finally admitted to a secondary school in the county.
At that time, I was really happy because I was finally able to leave the countryside and live in the city. Although the conditions in the school were also poor at that time, I felt that it was much better than in the countryside.
InDuring the three years of secondary school, I have always been the leader of my class。The teachers were also very happy with my performance, and they always said that I was a smart and hardworking person.
After graduating, I worked as an apprentice in a restaurant in the county. At the time, my parents wouldn't let me do it, they always said it was too hard to be a chef.
But I fell in love with the craft of cooking. In the restaurant, I became more and more skilled, and it only took me two years to become the official head chef.
While working in a restaurant, I met my wife. She is also a chef, and the two of us often go to the kitchen together in the restaurant.
Slowly we developed feelings between us, and eventually we got married and had children. Because both of them are working hard outside to earn money, they can have today's results.
After we got married, my wife and I stayed in the county to work. My eldest brother followed my uncle to work in the county seat.
At that time, my uncle was already a small cadre in the county, and he was very good at interpersonal relationships. In less than a few years, he became a director of the county town.
And my eldest brother followed my uncle into business. The two of them partnered to open a building materials firm, and the business was not bad.
Every time I go home, my parents praise my eldest brother for his talent. And my wife and I worked as cooks in the county town, but they scolded the dogs.
They always say that this is the end of our lives, and nothing will come of it. But I don't care, because I know that if I work hard, I will succeed.
Later, my wife and I saved up money and went back to town to open a small restaurant. At that time, there were no restaurants in the town, so our business was also very good.
And my craftsmanship is relatively exquisite, and people often come from the county seat to eat. Gradually, our restaurant's reputation grew.
But they still don't think my wife and I have any good intentions. Because there were already several big restaurants in the town at that time, the competition was very fierce.
And although my craft is good, I can't change the taste of the food. So they suggested that I go to my uncle for a relationship.
But I rejected their advice because I thought I could succeed if I worked hard.
At that time, the two older brothers of the family already had some small businesses in the town. When my parents saw this, they no longer forced my wife and me to find a relationship with my uncle.
But every time we came home, they always said that we didn't have much to offer. And they will joke about my craft, saying who made you a chef?
Even though my parents always said that about me, I didn't care. Because I know that as long as I work hard, I will be able to succeed.
At that time, my restaurant business was getting better and better, and gradually I made more money. So we took my wife's brother over and helped take care of the hotel.
Business is getting better and better, and we're starting to think about scaling up. However, at that time, it was very difficult for banks to get loans, and we were not given the opportunity to borrow at all.
So I thought of my uncle. He is now retired and has a lot of free time in town. So I wanted my uncle to introduce us to a few people we knew to take out a loan from the bank.
But when I made this request, my uncle rejected me outright. He said that he was retired and could no longer meddle in the affairs of **.
When I heard this, I was disappointed. In fact, I have long known that my uncle's attitude towards us is not as good as others say.
It's just that my parents always praise the eldest brother and the second brother for their talents, but I don't have any talents. But I don't care about that, because if you work hard, you will succeed.
Then we had to abandon the plan to expand. But the business is getting better and better, and there is more money. So we renovated the hotel even more beautifully.
Every time I go home, my parents are happy to see our restaurant. They always say that the two of us are very discerning to open such a beautiful restaurant.
However, when I asked to expand further, my uncle refused me. He said that now the policy has changed, and bank loans have become very strict.
Although I was disappointed, I did not complain. Because I know that even if someone with power helps, it can't change my fate.
You can only go further with your own hands. Gradually, my restaurant became more and more famous, and it became a well-known restaurant in the town.
Every time I go home, my parents see that our restaurant is doing so well, and they no longer say that we have no money.
And I will tell them: as long as you work hard, anyone can succeed!
