Wedding canteen 1: Her role is not only the proprietress.

Love and food in the world cannot live up to.

Swaying lights, delicious side dishes, steaming Guandong cooking, and wine, the "Meigumi canteen" with only ten seats releases warmth in the middle of the night.

The owner and staff of "Meigu Rice Hall" are both served by Yusaka Hui, a former fortune teller. Under her care, it attracts all kinds of men and women to stay and interweave with each other, performing the tragicomedy of marriage feelings in the world.

This is the main content of the novel 1 by Japanese writer Keiko Yamaguchi.

The author of this book, Keiko Yamaguchi, is a member of the Japan Association of Reasoning Writers. She has failed 43 blind dates and made her debut in the literary world at the age of 55. Masterpieces include Married Dining Hall and Aunt Dining Hall series. She won the Seicho Matsumoto Prize and was included in the shortlist for the Yoshikawa Eiji Library Award. Working in the dining hall all the year round, her description of the dishes is very convincing.

From the perspective of the proprietress, this book describes the love life of men and women who often patronize the canteen, including daughters who hate to marry, mothers who urge women to marry, and smart and capable professional women. Hui shuttles among them, which plays a decisive role. She is not only a listener, but also uses her professional knowledge in divination to help men and women who are caught in emotional whirlpool.

This novel consists of five stories, each with the name of the dish as the name of the story. There is no fluctuation in structure. The author tells the story directly, just like our ordinary life. It's plain but it can't help but make people deeply moved.

It's just the story of the proprietress, which is tortuous and makes people cry.

The boss's wife, Tamasakaguchi, used to be a very popular fortune teller.

Since he was a student, Hui has a special ability to see things that others can't, but all his classmates feel disgusting, and he thinks so. It wasn't until I met my teacher when I was working part-time at the university that Hui realized that her special functions were given by heaven to help others, so she studied divination with the teacher seriously.

After learning, hui began to stand on his own feet and became quite famous. Later, when the teacher died, Hui blamed herself for not having an accident with the divination teacher.

Hui's divination went well. In addition to normal divination, she was invited to perform on TV, presided over divination, and received an invitation to write a book.

In the process of writing a book, Hui met her husband who was three years older than her. After they got married, in order to take care of Hui's career, her husband resigned from Hui's manager and hired an assistant to assist Hui's work.

Everything seems to be going on in an orderly way.

It's just that Hui and her husband didn't avoid the seven-year itch after all. Her husband had an affair with his assistant and both of them died unexpectedly.

What's more, Hui left all her assets to her husband to take care of. Her husband's investment failed, all her assets were mortgaged, and Hui became a homeless man with nothing.

After relaxing abroad for a month, Hui took over the "Meigumi canteen". Just because the pronunciation of these five words is the same as his own name, he likes food, but he has no working experience in catering and started another life.

From the story of the proprietress Hui, I was deeply infected by Hui's courage.

Her courage is reflected in her three choices after she became a fortune teller.

For the first time, I chose to leave my parents.

Hui is a fortune teller, but her parents don't support her. She thinks this is a disgraceful career. Hui didn't give up. After her official debut, she moved out of home and rarely went back to her parents' home.

The second time, I chose to be a canteen.

At the time of fortune telling, Hui was betrayed by her husband and assistant. She not only suffered mental torture, but also lost her credit and reputation in her career. After resting in a foreign country, she took over the catering that had nothing to do with her specialty, and sometimes even asked the guests for cooking methods.

The third time, choose to start over.

The canteen has gradually improved under Hui's current study and sales, and with regular customers, customers have gradually regarded the canteen as a temporary stop for their hearts and lived a happy life.

However, a fire accident happened, and the canteen that had been in operation for ten years caught fire. This is unacceptable and very sad. With the advice and help of my friends, I chose to start running the canteen again.

Hui's life is like a roller coaster, staying at a high place for a while and wandering at a low place for a while, but Hui walks forward step by step with his own courage, which is admirable.

Everyone's life is different, and there are endless accidents in life. In the face of these accidents, summon up courage and live as wonderful as Hui.
