In the next few days, Shao Xiaoxiao was busy with the business in the store, many items were smashed and needed to be replaced, and the police also came to the door several times, just to consult about the day's affairs.
These were fine, but after Shao Xiaoxiao notified the staff to come to work, he found that three of them were unwilling to do it.
It's not difficult to recruit people, but the problem is that two of these three people are apprentices to Shao Xiaoxiao's pastry making staff. Now there are two fewer people. After the store opens, there are only two or three people in the back kitchen. Talking about one pair of hands means that a person is too busy with both hands.
"Hire a pastry chef. Didn't you say you want to be a boss who collects money?" Su Ji came up with an idea. A pastry chef is equivalent to the salary of three ordinary employees. Before hiring people, they were worried about bad business, but now The business has basically stabilized, so naturally I have to relax myself.
"If you want to be a boss who only takes money, a pastry chef is not enough." Shao Xiaoxiao said.
"That's two, three are fine, as long as we don't lose money, earning less is better than being tired." Su Ji made a decision, "This matter is so decided, and we will recruit workers later, not only dessert chefs Hire two waiters and try not to make the store short of staff."
Shao Xiaoxiao did not refuse with a smile on his lips. In fact, even if he recruited ten dessert chefs, they would not lose money, but what he lacks now is money. That day Shao Xiaoxiao counted his small coffers, and suddenly found a child Actually more than his money.
This kind of blow, if I didn't experience it myself, I really couldn't imagine it, how aggrieved it is.
Shao Xiaoxiao asked curiously: "How many small coffers does your little chubby have?"
Su Ji shook his head, and he said with a smile: "Jun Yan's pocket money and red envelopes are all collected by him, I don't know how much, but these days he has been pestering me to earn pocket money."
"Can you still earn pocket money? How?" Shao Xiaoxiao found it interesting.
"Give him some small jobs to do, and don't ask him to do well, as long as he is willing." Su Ji said, the two of them are the only ones in the house, and now that there is an extra milk, he will ask Junyan to teach the milk how to go to the toilet How to teach it not to break things, and if it is cleaning and so on, it will not force him to do a good job, "Why did you ask this? Is the murmuring also short of money? The two of them What is the little guy doing mysteriously?"
Shao Xiaoxiao was delighted, "You still don't know? When your little chubby earns enough pocket money, you will have more big dogs at home."
"..." Su Ji thought about it, and he sighed slightly: "If Jun Yan likes it, just buy it, anyway, there are already more cows at home, and a dog is also good.
Shao Xiaoxiao squinted his eyes with a smile, "Actually, you like it."
Su Ji nodded with a smile. He really likes it. There is a son at home with cats and dogs. He feels that life is really comfortable. "Where is the dog he likes, or I will buy it directly."
My heart is already ready to move, I really want to take a dog home to brush its fur.
Shao Xiaoxiao thinks that Su Ji is really hardworking. Not to mention taking care of the cat owner at home, he wants to bring back a dog that has been demolished, "It is said that he met a big dog that was abused when he was in the nursing home, and he wanted to spend money to buy it from the owner. .”
Su Ji frowned, "Is it so hateful?"
It's really abhorrent to abuse pets, he said, "Then I'll go buy it."
Shao Xiaoxiao shook his head, he said: "What kind of place is a nursing home? It's either expensive or rich. How can it be short of your little money? Maybe he will throw money at you instead."
Su Ji felt a little lost.
Shao Xiaoxiao continued to say to him: "Don't be depressed, Guggou has been clinging to his dad for the past few days, let his dad come forward and have a look."
"That's the only way to go. If it's inconvenient for you to take care of me when you come back, just keep it for me." Su Ji said, she was afraid of accepting milk before, but now she likes it more and more after raising it for a while, and when it comes to dogs , he will inevitably think of that little dirt dog. If he hadn't picked it up back then, I'm afraid it wouldn't...
Shao Xiaoxiao couldn't see Su Ji's absent-minded appearance, so he pushed Su Ji and shouted: "Don't dawdle, hurry up and recruit people, we still have to open a store."
Su Ji came back to his senses and cheered up to do things together.
In three consecutive days, they recruited all the employees and the store officially opened.
Maybe it was because the incident that day was so loud that no passerby dared to enter the door.
Shao Xiaoxiao didn't even think that the first wave of customers after opening the store would be Lou Peng bringing his blind date.
Although a man and a woman didn't have too much intimate contact, the atmosphere between each other was good. Shao Xiaoxiao really didn't expect that Lou Peng would succeed on a blind date.
But Lou Peng actually didn't want to see Shao Xiaoxiao, nor did he want to say anything to him.
After all, anyone who brings a blind date to see a handsome guy, no one wants to experience this kind of experience.
But this is what he asked for.
After sitting down and ordering a suit, Jiang Han couldn't wait to say: "Call him over and have a chat."
Lou Peng has been looking at Shao Xiaoxiao from the corner of his eyes. He originally wanted to wait for him to enter the back kitchen before looking for Yi Yue, but he was afraid that Shao Xiaoxiao would make fun of him if he found out, "Why are you so anxious, can't I rest first?"
Jiang Han smiled, "You still said I was in a hurry, who called me a few times this morning?"
Lou Peng didn't want to talk, he really didn't know what he was anxious about.
After waiting for the dessert, Jiang Han looked at the person opposite with his eyes eagerly without rushing.
Lou Peng felt very uncomfortable, so he had no choice but to stand up and walk towards the person who was still painting the wall.
Yi Yue's painting is already the last wall painting, and it will be completed in a day or two. When Lou Peng came, he saw the paintings all over the wall and couldn't help but exclaimed: "I didn't expect you to paint so well? Before Why didn't I notice."
Saying this, he turned his attention to the other walls, not to mention, all of them are amazing, from a distance it seems like they are in the real scene, he said: "You are pretty good at it."
There are quite a few similar compliments, but Yi Yue never took them seriously.
But this time, he stopped writing and took a few steps back, carefully looking at the wall painting.
The color scheme, structure, pattern and style are almost impeccable.
But the painter is not satisfactory.
With a bit of bitterness in Yi Yue's mouth, his left hand unconsciously touched his right wrist again.
In the eyes of outsiders, these paintings are indeed beautiful, but insiders know that the 3D stereograms are just a visual advantage, and the painting skills are actually very rough.
Because the person who writes the pen can't use the strength to hold the pen.
With sore wrists, Yi Yue pursed his lips slightly and felt cold. Boss Su came to the school to find a painter before. If he hadn't been short of money at the time, and if he hadn't been painting a 3D wall painting, he would never have taken the job anyway. live.
That is, the price is very low compared to others.
Just because he feels a little guilty.
Good in the eyes of outsiders may not be really good, only he himself knows that these wall paintings are just tricks.
"What do you think? You won't be fascinated by your own paintings, do you want to be so narcissistic?" Lou Peng said, he really thought it was possible, if these wall paintings were painted by him, he would definitely yell All of them know let them all admire.
"You think Yi Yue is you?" Shao Xiaoxiao stepped forward, and he stretched out his finger to warn: "You kid, don't try to bully people here, or I'll dig a hole so that you won't even be able to get up."
Lou Peng was discouraged, and he felt a little aggrieved: "Who wants to bully others, Yi Yue and I are friends, okay, I just want him to come over and have a chat with me."
Shao Xiaoxiao looked at the two suspiciously, "Really?"
"Very serious." Lou Peng nodded emphatically, and he pushed the stunned person next to him with his hand, "Hurry up and explain."
Yi Yue tilted his head and nodded lightly, "It's just that I still have work."
"It's okay to take a break." Shao Xiaoxiao waved his hand, and he said: "Anyway, there is no rush for a while, you are not much different in age, you must be able to chat and get together."
After finishing speaking, he restrained the smile on his face and told Lou Peng: "You boy, take Yi Yue well, and let me know that you will look good on him if you bully him."
"How could I... ???" Lou Peng felt that he was too wronged, not to mention that he had no intention of bullying, but now he wanted to explain that Shao Xiaoxiao didn't listen and left.
He hummed and said, "It's not because he is my cousin's husband and wife, but I really think I'm willing to talk to him."
Yi Yue glanced at him.
Lou Peng shut up immediately, it's better not to speak ill of Shao Xiaoxiao in front of Yi Yue, if he really wants to turn around and tell Shao Xiaoxiao that he has to jump into the pit again.
When the two came to the booth, Jiang Han was already trembling with excitement, she quickly stood up and stretched out her hand: "My name is Jiang Han, your name is Yi Yue, nice to meet you."
Yi Yue lowered his eyes to look at the hand stretched forward, and instead of holding it immediately, he raised his palm, indicating the paint stained on it.
"It doesn't have to be so formal to get to know each other, why shake hands?" Lou Peng said hurriedly, pushed Yi Yue to the innermost seat, and then sat next to him.
Jiang Han is not very introverted, but she really likes Yi Yue's face, and now seeing someone appearing in front of her, she can't help but feel a little shy, and desperately conveys to Lou Peng with her eyes, asking him to help match up.
Three people appear on the lover deck.
And the atmosphere was a bit weird, if Shao Xiaoxiao really couldn't tell, he really had to go to the ophthalmology department, he couldn't help but feel that Yi Yue was really popular.
The store has been open for such a long time, Shao Xiaoxiao has long noticed that the desserts and cakes in the store are really delicious, naturally there are many repeat customers, and more importantly, there are many girls who come here for Yi Yue.
Basically, there are one or two tables of girls sitting near Yi Yue's painting every day, either whispering or secretly taking pictures, but Yi Yue is too cold, few people dare to come forward to talk.
"Youth, tell me why no one came to talk to me?" Shao Xiaoxiao leaned on the counter and sighed.
Su Ji flipped through the ledger, and he let out a muffled laugh, "When you really have it, you'll definitely feel bored again."
Shao Xiaoxiao thought about it, and it was true that he was most afraid of trouble. If possible, it would be better if no one harassed him.
While the two were talking, Shao Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered what he had said to Su Ji before, and he said, "You said you would earn pocket money for Xiaopangdun, do you want me to try it too?"
It was his first time raising a child.
Cong Cong has the identity of the Lou family's heir, so he will never be short of money in the future.
But Shao Xiaoxiao felt that because of this, he had to tell him that money was hard-won since he was a child, and it was best for him to experience it for himself.
"Tomorrow Saturday happens to be their holiday, why don't we just let them come to the store, we can find something easy for them, and then calculate their wages?" Su Ji suggested.
Shao Xiaoxiao immediately clapped his hands and laughed, "It's too young to hire child labor."
Su Ji also smiled.
"But I can really try it, but I have to think about what I can let the two little guys do." Shao Xiaoxiao rubbed his chin and was a little worried. He would definitely not be able to collect money, so he murmured that the little boy could give five hundred as two hundred, Let him collect the money and you will die.
As for other cleaning tasks, to be honest, he was really reluctant.
"Why don't we tear down the flower wall on the west side? Those fake flowers don't look realistic but rather tacky. After tearing them down, let Junyan Congchug paint and make money?" Su Ji suggested, there were two children on the corner of the second floor The wall paintings I painted turned out to be really good, very childlike.
"Okay, I can let Yi Yue take it with me." Shao Xiaoxiao made a final decision, and he said in a low voice: "To be honest, I still don't want to let Yi Yue go. He doesn't want to stay in the back kitchen, even as a waiter. good."
"Are you going to ask him?" Su Ji also thought, but he looked for Su Ji a few times before, and now he is too embarrassed to do so.
Shao Xiaoxiao nodded, "Wait until he finishes painting the wall."
The two chatted while looking at the store.
After closing the door, they picked up the children from school together, and took the children home at the gate of the kindergarten.
Shao Xiaoxiao sat beside Lou Yu with murmurs, and was already used to their previous way of getting along.
In the morning, I took Lou Yu to the kindergarten with Lou Yu, then took Su Ji's car to the store, in the afternoon I took Su Ji's car to pick up Gonggung, and then took Lou Yu's car to go home.
It was like this for three or four days.
In the car, Shao Xiaoxiao announced that Gu Guming was going to work tomorrow.
Cong Cong was dazed, and he asked in a childish voice: "I do things for Daddy, and I still charge money?"
Didn't he undercharge a lot of money before? The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was at a loss. He hummed and said, "Then why didn't daddy give me money before?"
"... Uh, this is a bit difficult to explain." Shao Xiaoxiao was at a loss for words, he really didn't know how to explain this.
Lou Yu put down the things in his hands, hugged Gug Cong in his arms and said: "You also said that you don't charge money for doing things for your father, but the shop is jointly opened by your father and Uncle Su, and your father can't make money, so Su Uncle can earn money if he doesn’t.”
Ruancong tilted his head, and suddenly realized: "I know, I earn Uncle Su's money, and Junyan earns Daddy's money, right?"
Lou Yu nodded, "Ganggong is really smart."
Cong Cong grinned happily, "Daddy, you didn't explain it clearly. I will understand as soon as Dad says it."
Shao Xiaoxiao returned a blunt smirk, so he still has to thank Lou Yu
However, he was a little curious and asked, "You don't refuse?"
In fact, after having this idea, he was still worried that Lou Yu would refuse, after all, if he was really short of money, he could just ask for it, and he could get a lot of it.
Lou Yudao: "Why did you refuse? I worked as an hourly worker outside when I was ten years old, came into contact with the company when I was thirteen, and took charge when I was fifteen..."
"Enough is enough." Shao Xiaoxiao made a stop gesture. Compared with Lou Yu's childhood, he found that he was too naive. Thinking about it carefully, when he was ten years old, he went up a tree to dig out bird eggs. At the age of thirteen, he was pestering his father and uncle, clamoring for meat.
"Then it's decided. From now on, Chuangou and Junyan will come to the store every Saturday and Sunday to earn pocket money." Shao Xiaoxiao said, looking forward to coming tomorrow.
Even when I got home and entered the door, I was humming an out-of-key song.
"What makes you so happy?"
Shao Xiaoxiao looked in the direction of the voice, his face was shocked at first, but he was overjoyed, "Uncle, you didn't tell me when you came, I'll come back early and cook for you."
"I just arrived too." Lou Xuezhen said, the sour mood before disappeared for some reason, and the smile on his face gradually increased, he said: "You are busy with things, you don't need to take care of me, an old man."
"That won't work, I have to take care of you no matter how busy I am." Shao Xiaoxiao smiled playfully, stepped forward and pushed his uncle's wheelchair into the house.
Gugling also followed closely, climbed into Grandpa Chong's arms with all four limbs, and whispered interesting and childish topics to him.
The whole scene was so happy that Lou Yu who was following behind couldn't help showing some smiles.
Shao Xiaoxiao and his uncle ran into the kitchen to get busy without saying a few words.
Lou Yu then sat forward and talked with his uncle.
Lou Xuezhen looked at the figures in the kitchen, a big one was busy in an apron, followed by a small one, wandering around the big one all the time, he said with a smile: "Xiao Xiao's temperament has really changed, if I didn't see it with my own eyes, I really can't believe it."
Lou Yu handed over the teacup and responded softly.
Not to mention uncle and grandpa, he couldn't believe it either.
"The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, I have to go there for a walk." Lou Xuezhen said.
"I'll accompany you." Lou Yu answered, every year at this time, my uncle would go to other provinces, but in recent years, my uncle is not willing to take him there, and every time he goes alone with his entourage .
Sure enough, Lou Xuezhen shook his head: "There are many things here, what do you follow, I have someone with me, nothing will happen."
Lou Yu frowned.
At this time, Lou Xuezhen raised his chin slightly and signaled: "This time, I plan to take Xiaoxiao with me."
"Take him with you?" Lou Yu's eyes also fell on the back of the kitchen.
"His hometown is there, so it's time to take him back for a walk." Lou Xuezhen said, and now that he is old, he doesn't know how many times he can go to see it. This time, taking Shao Xiaoxiao back can be regarded as going back together. Look at his ancestors.
Lou Xuezhen's cloudy eyes were full of memories. When he was young, he never thought that he could not be with that person, but his nephew and grandnephew could have a good time with his grandnephew.
What a trick.
