Originally, many employees thought that the new store would offer lower prices, and they had to pass by this store back and forth, and it was so convenient to buy things, so they couldn't help but join in the fun.
I didn't expect the prices of the things in this store to be a bit expensive, but since they were already here, it would be a shame not to buy something to try.
Thinking that it would only be a one-time purchase and that there was a discount, many employees gritted their teeth and bought vegetables from Mingyue's store.
Then take it back and taste it. Not only will your family members' chopsticks be flying so fast, even the employees themselves will be amazed and say, no wonder they dare to sell it at such a price, this thing must be good!
Because of the taste, there is only one word: good.
When we got to the workshop, many employees were still discussing that the food at Zhou's Delicatessen tasted good, the dishes were fresh, the stove was clean, and the boss was generous with the ingredients. Even the leftover soup from the dishes when used to mix with rice was so fragrant that it made people want to swallow their tongues.
Such conversations also occurred in different factories, so that Zhou's cooked food was noticed by more and more people.
In the next few days, Zhou's business was very good. It was so good that the stove in the store never stopped burning. It was so good that Mingyue and Zhou Chengming were both very busy.
Now Mingyue no longer kept her secrets and told Zhou Chengming the recipes of several sauces to avoid having to do everything alone.
Zhou Chengming had no idea what she was thinking. After receiving her generous teachings, he was so excited that he almost cried.
At that time, he almost pointed to the sky and swore that he would work for Mingyue for the rest of his life and would not let Mingyue down.
This made Mingyue feel uncomfortable for a while. After all, she had kept her feelings to him before, and now she was doing this just to avoid being too tired. She was really not as great as he thought...
Time passed day by day. Since Zhou's shop now opened at eight in the morning and closed at seven in the evening, which was an hour later than the factory workers, Mingyue and the others had no rest time at all.
You have to know that the customers in the store are not only factory employees, but also residents living nearby and the families of those employees.
After seeing off a customer who packed five kilograms of braised food, Mingyue wiped the sweat from her forehead and felt that she couldn't go on like this. She had to recruit more people, otherwise she would be exhausted.
Besides, her purpose of making money is to live a good life, not to tie herself up in this store.
However, you have to choose your employees carefully. Once the store's business is good, it will always arouse the jealousy of some people. It would be bad if it attracts trouble.
But Mingyue didn't expect that just when she wanted to recruit someone, Zhou Siming came to her and said he wanted to work with her.
"Fourth brother, are you serious?" Mingyue was stunned for a moment before asking.
Zhou Siming nodded seriously, obviously thinking for a long time: "I am not as smart as my third brother, so I can't be a technician. I can only be an ordinary employee in the factory who eats and waits for death. If I hadn't met Ning Ning, I might have just muddled along, but..."
With an unconscious smile on his face, he said firmly, "But I can't let Ning Ning suffer with me. She originally had such a good life. If she marries me, her life will be worse. Not to mention her father, I can't forgive myself. To love someone is to hope that she can live a better life. Her father is like this, and so am I."
Mingyue didn't expect that the silly fourth brother would say such words, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was reasonable. Perhaps it was because he had such thoughts that Ning Ning chose him so firmly.
However, "Brother Si, do you trust me so much? You have a stable job now, but I just rent a small shop. What if I bet on the wrong horse..." Before Mingyue finished her words, Zhou Siming interrupted her: "Your shop is so prosperous, and you earn more than I did in the factory. And no matter what the result is, this is my own choice. Even if something bad happens in the future, I won't blame anyone. So, little sister, just tell me straight, do you want Brother Si to help you?"
How could Mingyue refuse after hearing what he said? Besides, the store was short of staff, so who could be more trustworthy than one's own family
"Of course I welcome Fourth Brother to join," Mingyue said, and then asked, "But have you told our parents about this? Does Third Brother know about it? And has Sister Ning Ning told you about it?"
Zhou Siming scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "Ning Ning said that no matter what I do, she supports me. I told my third brother once, and he asked me to think about it again. As for my parents, ahem, little sister, I think it might be better if you go and tell them. You also know that my parents love you more, and they won't do anything to you even if they are angry."
Mingyue looked at him expressionlessly and decided to retract the idea that her fourth brother was a fool. Look, he would actually try to shift the blame to someone else!
But in the end Mingyue still agreed to Zhou Siming, and she went to talk about this with Zhou's father and mother.
Then she took some time out of her busy schedule and went back to Zhoujia Village.
It wasn't just because of Zhou Siming's incident, but also because Old Man Zhou called and said that his eldest son's wife couldn't eat all day, so he asked Mingyue to mail two bottles of sauce back.
When Mingyue went back, she did not greet her family in advance. When she appeared at Zhou's house, everyone in the family was really shocked.
Liu Hui was the first to react. She trotted forward and took the things from Mingyue's hand, muttering, "You naughty girl, you didn't even say hello when you came back, so I could ask your dad to pick you up. Look at all these bags, you must be exhausted, right?"
Old man Zhou also hurried forward, pulled Mingyue up and down, and after a long while he said, "You've lost weight."
This is the truth. Mingyue works so hard every day, so won’t she lose weight
Mingyue laughed and said, "My store is busy, I'm making money to lose weight."
At this time, Zhou Ersao's belly was already very big, and Zhou Dasao's belly was also bulging.
Mrs. Zhou looked at Mingyue with shining eyes, but shook her head and said, "You've lost weight and become more energetic."
Zhou Ersao smiled and said, "Don't block the door, let Mingyue come in and use the fan. It's so hot, don't get a heat stroke."
Everyone finally reacted and rushed into the main room.
The sun is very strong today, so the team leader didn’t dare let us go to work. The whole family is crowded in the house enjoying the fans!
Mingyue divided the things she bought. There were nutritional supplements for her elder and younger sisters-in-law, food and clothes for Zhou's father and mother, and some things for her elder and younger brothers. So everyone in the family got something.
Old man Zhou said, "What a waste, why spend this money?" as he walked into the house with the new clothes, with a happy look on his face.
Liu Hui whispered about her husband's "conspicuous bag" and then asked about her daughter's situation in the city.
