Chapter 79: Chapter 79 Xu Ying, your aunt has an accident
Sun Lifang had both family background and capability, naturally not afraid of those two from the Gao family. She snorted, “How should I know? I can’t read the leader’s mind.
“So, if you ask , the leader is perceptive; he sees everyone who works efficiently and diligently. Those who just pose all day in the restaurant aren’t fit to be managers.”
When Gao Guihua heard this, her face flushed red; it was obvious that Sun Lifang’s sarcasm was directed at her.
However, with the managent elections looming, she couldn’t afford any distractions at this critical mont; she had to swallow her anger and plot her revenge against Sun Lifang only after becoming the manager.
What if Sun Lifang’s parents were factory officials? Could their hands reach inside the restaurant?
Chen Chunfeng just gave a naive smile, not engaging much in the conversation.
Gao Guihua saw this and looked disgusted; thinking soone as dumb as Chen Chunfeng could only ever be a waiter for life, lacking any cleverness, just keeping his head down, busy working.
Xu Ying lifted the stear lid, delighted at the sight of the fluffy buns. Today was another great day to earn points.
“Lifang, help bring these buns down.”
Hearing this, Sun Lifang hurried over and together they brought down the cooked buns.
Then, new buns were placed in the stear.
People had begun to trickle into the restaurant.
Sun Lifang quickly stationed herself at her spot,”We’ve got new varieties today: mushroom and cabbage stuffing, spicy tofu stuffing, and mushroom vermicelli stuffing. Today’s buns even have added pork lard, so fragrant!”
Without her having to ntion it, everyone could already sll the aroma of the buns, drooling, “Having a new chef is great; every day there’s sothing different for us.
What soups do we have for breakfast today? I sll sothing else today too!”
“There’s also spicy soup for breakfast, it slls so good, and it’s salty too.”
Xu Ying didn’t know why there wasn’t any spicy soup here; she rembered that it had existed since ancient tis, maybe people were just too busy trying to fill their stomachs to bother creating more delicacies.
Upon hearing about spicy soup, intrigued by the na, one person imdiately ordered a serving.
Once he received his spicy soup, the man inhaled the aroma and drooled, “This spicy soup slls so flavorful, very fragrant.”
After taking a sip, he was utterly satisfied, relishing the rich spices and unique taste. He couldn’t stop praising, “Delicious, spicy with a hint of sour, absolutely brilliant.
This is my first ti realizing breakfast can be this flavorful, it’s tasty.”
With this man leading by example, others seeing the hearty bowl of spicy soup, also felt intrigued and followed suit, ordering their own.
“Such a pity, we’re pressed for ti today, otherwise paired with fried breadsticks would be the perfect match.” Xu Ying sighed, realizing these folks were missing out today.
Sun Lifang’s ears were incredibly sharp, and she caught Xu Ying’s comnt. She asked clingily, “What did you say, fried breadsticks?”
Their restaurant didn’t have them, but other restaurants did.
As things started to quiet down, Sun Lifang eagerly said to Xu Ying, “Let’s head out together, we can go to another shop and buy so fried breadsticks.”
“During working hours, it’s not great to go out,” said Xu Ying.
Sun Lifang brushed it off, “There’s nothing wrong with that; our restaurant naturally has break tis, and as long as it’s not too busy, we can rest a bit. We’re not going out and never coming back.
It’s just fried breadsticks. I’ll tell Chef Ge, you’ll co with , right?”
Xu Ying nodded.
Seeing her agreent, Sun Lifang happily humd a little tune and ran off to find Chef Ge.
She returned soon after, beaming with excitent, “Let’s hurry.”
The two linked arms and ran out, Gao Guihua watched this scene and noted it in her mind; running out during work hours, she’d definitely report this to Director Hong. When it ca to the elections, she’d see how Sun Lifang competed with her.
Gao Xianghong also secretly planned, becoming manager would be like transforming into a phoenix overnight.
The manager’s salary was much higher than that of a regular worker.
Only a fool wouldn’t want that job—by then, you’d be a minor leader, able to command anyone you pleased.
Sun Lifang and Xu Ying had quickly finished buying their buns when they unexpectedly ran into an old acquaintance on the road.
Chen Yanran looked anxious as she called out to Xu Ying, “Xu Ying, is your aunt in trouble?
Hurry and co with to find your aunt.”
Xu Ying looked confused—her aunt—she just rembered that her eldest aunt’s family was also in the county.
However, in her previous life, she hadn’t often interacted with her own eldest aunt, who had to work and only visited during the holidays.
She would go to the Old Mansion, a place Xu Ying disliked, and she didn’t feel much affection for this aunt.
But seeing Chen Yanran’s expression, which didn’t seem fake, Xu Ying hesitated for a mont and then followed her, “Lifang, please ask Chef Ge to give so ti off; I’ll be back later.”
“Okay.” Sun Lifang nodded. Seeing Chen Yanran so anxious, it definitely wasn’t a trivial matter; she urged Xu Ying to hurry up.
At first, Xu Ying followed Chen Yanran towards her eldest aunt’s house, but gradually, the path they took seed wrong.
“Chen Yanran, where are you taking ?”
“Yingying, I’m sorry. You might have misunderstood my relationship with Wen Zhong. I’ve been wanting to apologize, but I’ve been busy with work.
Now that you’ve started working at the restaurant, I had to resort to this. I’m sorry.”
“Uh-huh.” Xu Ying replied coldly, finding Chen Yanran sowhat laughable. However, she was curious to see what Chen Yanran was really up to.
“Where do you want to take now?”
Chen Yanran smiled and said, “A re verbal apology isn’t enough; there must be so real action.
My cousin lives in the county too; how about I take you to my cousin’s house for a al?”
Xu Ying looked uncomfortable, “I’m still on duty right now, maybe so other day!”
Chen Yanran panicked upon hearing this, hurriedly spoke, “Yingying, my cousin’s wife has already prepared the al, and because she appreciates you, she even bought at.
It would all go to waste if you don’t go.”
Xu Ying hesitated for a mont then nodded, “Okay then.”
She couldn’t recall Chen Yanran having any cousins in the county; this person was likely soone she found to deal with her.
She hadn’t yet found a chance to deal with Chen Yanran, and here the woman was, bringing herself right to the doorstep.
She definitely wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity.
Following Chen Yanran, they turned left and right and arrived in front of a dilapidated house.
Chen Yanran looked sowhat embarrassed, “Yingying, you won’t hold the conditions against us, right? My cousin and his wife aren’t well-off.
But rest assured, they’ve definitely prepared a sumptuous al to host you.”
Xu Ying’s eyes lit up, eager to enter the yard.
Chen Yanran, seeing this scene, scorned in her heart, saying Xu Ying was still the sa, stupid as ever.
Wen Zhong insisted that Xu Ying had beco smarter and told her to be cautious; it seed to Chen Yanran that Wen Zhong had overestimated Xu Ying.
Upon entering the yard, Xu Ying saw two n waiting inside the house.
Dong Wenqiang and Dong Wenjie. When the two n saw Xu Ying’s appearance, a hint of astonishnt flickered in their eyes.
It had originally been agreed that Dong Wenqiang would take action, but now Dong Wenjie was not having it.
Beautiful and working at the State-owned Restaurant, earning a salary every month—who wouldn’t want such a wife?
