226.Chapter 226: A Tragic Past
Mu Lingluo listed all the plans, even including the division of responsibilities of everyone in the building, she wrote them carefully and carefully, and then she put down her pen with satisfaction, dried the ink, and took it to the shopkeeper Zhu.
"In the future, everyone in our building will act in accordance with this rule and regulations, and if there is a violation, even if it is punished, it will be expelled if it is serious. As for doing a good job, there will naturally be a reward, understand? ā
"Yes, I understand, I'll make it clear to them later." Shopkeeper Zhu took it with both hands, looked down twice, and couldn't help frowning slightly: "Owner, how do we divide the morning and evening shifts?" ā
"In the future, we will come to open breakfast or morning tea in the morning, and I will think about it first later and make the dim sum list in the building." Mu Lingluo explained.
Shopkeeper Zhu said eagerly: "But, the owner, I didn't say it before, our teahouse can only do tea business, not anything else!" Otherwise, it's a breach of contract......"
Mu Lingluo smiled faintly: "I have carefully read the contract, we have not changed the nature of the teahouse, our mainstream is still the tea business, but in the past we did not do business in the morning, and now we are using all the time in the morning, this does not violate the contract we made in advance, isn't it?" ā
Shopkeeper Zhu was stunned, and after thinking about it, he felt that it made sense, "It's just ......"
"No, it's just that you do it, you can find a junior for me later, and I'll let him do it in the afternoon." Mu Lingluo interrupted him and commanded. "You've recently posted another posting for a skilled pastry chef."
"Oh, okay." Shopkeeper Zhu nodded, a happy smile suddenly appeared on his face, and said: "Owner, yesterday's business was good, and it didn't close until a quarter of the evening. As he spoke, he looked at Mu Lingluo expectantly.
Mu Lingluo was dripping blood in her heart when she heard it, it was the pastries she bought with the only silver she had left, and they were all very famous pastries, even if others were based on the psychology of taking advantage, they would definitely come over.
"Was there a profit yesterday?"
Shopkeeper Zhu was stunned and scratched his head, "There were a lot of people yesterday, but after removing the tea money, the building also earned about four or five hundred yuan...... But according to the past, even if you add the profit from selling pastries, you can't earn 500 yuan, and yesterday there was a lot of traffic, so you can make so much money......"
Mu Lingluo shook his head, "Shopkeeper Zhu, yesterday we gave away five taels of silver for the pastries, not counting the wages of everyone in the store, do you still think we are making money?" ā
"But, host, didn't you say you wanted pastries?" The shopkeeper Zhu said. "I bought cloud cakes and the like according to your orders......"
Mu Lingluo was really a little crying and laughing, she rubbed her forehead, "That's it, you go and tell them about this rule first, I still have something to do." As for, we still send it today, but I made it myself, by the way, let Xiao Er send it, say more good things, if they like it, they will come often in the future, understand? ā
"The proprietor wants to take charge of the kitchen himself?" Shopkeeper Zhu was surprised, but still nodded and said, "Yes, I'll do it." ā
Mu Lingluo sent the shopkeeper Zhu away, and then turned around and entered the kitchen, but when she saw the people in the kitchen, she couldn't help but be stunned: "Wu ...... Wu family lady, why are you here? Your injury is not healed, so it is better to rest in the house quickly. ā
Wu was burning the fire, and when he saw her coming in, he hurriedly stood up, rubbed the corners of his clothes with both hands, and hung his head timidly, "Mu, Miss Mu, I am the third in the family, and the family calls me Sanniang." Well, my hands and feet are fine, and the injuries on my face are fine. IāI just see that you're busy, so I want to help you......"
Mu Lingluo waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I'm still busy, you go to rest first, I'll go to change the dressing for your wound at noon." You don't have to be embarrassed, these are all things I should do, if it weren't for you to clear my suspicions......"
Wu Sanniang bit her lip and said hurriedly: "No." Obviously, it was Miss Mu who saved me, I, I've always ......" She suddenly raised her head to meet Mu Lingluo's gaze, "I have always admired you." After I married into the Zhuo family, I fell ill because of a miscarriage, and I was weak and unable to conceive a child, so my mother-in-law didn't want to see me. My mother's family is poor, there are many brothers and sisters in the family, and my brothers do not grow up, even if I suffer a big disaster this time, no one in my mother's family will help me, and I will only take a few taels of silver from my mother-in-law's family and leave me in the Zhuo family, regardless of my life or death. ā
"Xianggong's grandmother forced my father-in-law to divorce my mother-in-law, and my father-in-law was angry with me in private, so he wanted to sell me into the Qinglou and be trampled to death. If it weren't for Miss Mu reaching out to rescue her this time, this time, Sanniang would probably have been dead. Miss Mu's great kindness, Sanniang is difficult to repay even if she is a cow or a horse! With that, she fell to her knees and kowtowed to Mu Lingluo.
Mu Lingluo hurriedly helped her up, "Wu ...... Sanniang, you don't have to be like this, I didn't do anything at all, you don't have to thank me so much. After a pause, she looked at the thinly dressed Wu family, saw the sadness in her eyes, and looked at her ruined face, and said softly: "If you have nowhere to go, you will live in the tea first." ā
She remembered Wu Sanniang's resolute disfigured appearance at that time, and she felt a little uncomfortable listening to her words.
Wu said in a low voice: "Thank you Miss Mu, if Miss Mu doesn't dislike it, let Sanniang be a slave and maid for you, Sanniang just wants to repay Miss Mu." ā
At that time, everyone was looking forward to her death, her mother-in-law wanted to poison her, her closest husband wanted to abuse her, her maiden relatives didn't want her, only Miss Mu reached out and was willing to pull her.
In this life and this life, even if she wants to be a slave and a maid, it will be difficult for her to repay Miss Mu's kindness to her.
Mu Lingluo was a little at a loss, she smiled: "I'm not everyone's young lady, where do you need maids and slaves." As long as you live a good life, I'll be happy. ā
"But I ......" Wu Sanniang was stunned, panic flashed in her eyes, she hurriedly grabbed Mu Lingluo's hand, and said hurriedly: "Girl, girl, don't you want me too?" As he spoke, tears began to fall.
Mu Lingluo was stunned, and in a blink of an eye she understood what Wu Sanniang meant, she hurriedly said: "That, of course not." If Sanniang is really fine, come and help me make pastries. I happen to be very busy, and there is no one to help, if Sanniang is willing, I am naturally very happy. Moreover, there is a shortage of pastry chefs, if you do a good job, you will stay in the teahouse to help in the future, and I will pay you monthly money. ā
"Yes, I'm willing to help the girl." Wu Sanniang nodded eagerly.
