Because of Ding Yiping's relationship, Lu Yao gradually paid attention to Xu Yuelin. In the past, because I was prejudiced against Xu Yuelin, I automatically ignored this person, even if this person was very beautiful. But now that this person's beauty is likely to break his peaceful life, he can no longer ignore it.

As soon as he got out of school this morning, he and Gu Lei had just arrived at the cafeteria, and they saw Xu Yuelin and Chen Hua coming side by side.

“…… It's a dog! I really clicked on the TV series, and I'm still alive to see the tenth episode. I feel like I must be blind in my eyes, damn a chicken, I actually think that the antenna is even more beautiful than the stick country boy group! It's a dog! Seeing that Xu Yuelin had not reacted, Chen Hua couldn't help but ask her, "Yuelin, don't you have anything to say?" ”

"Uh......" Xu Yuelin's expression was very sincere, "Is your dog okay?" ”

"!" Chen Hua scolded with a smile.

Not far away, the corners of Lu Yao's mouth twitched, and there was a very wonderful feeling in his heart.

Doesn't it all say that beautiful girls are reserved? These two goods don't know what to be reserved!

"Hmph, that's rude!" Gu Lei glanced at the two of them with disdain. She may not be as good-looking as Xu Yuelin, but she is confident that she is definitely more educated than her.

When Lu Yao heard this cold snort, he looked at Gu Lei in some surprise, but accidentally saw the trace of contempt in her eyes, and the mood that originally felt light suddenly dispersed a lot.

"Let's go, let's eat."

"Hmm." Gu Lei finished Xu Yuelin, she was in a good mood, and she affectionately held Lu Yao and walked towards the window of Da Cai.

"Auntie, five meals, all potatoes, brisket, chicken thighs and bean sprouts. Thank you! Cheng Chu said to the aunt who beat Cai inside. When there are usually many people, the three boys consciously take turns to help the two girls cook.

"Good!" Soon, the aunt inside handed the full meal to Cheng Chu and Chen Ya by the window.

"Thank you, Auntie!" said goodbye politely, and turned around to see Lu Yao and Gu Lei walking together.

Nodding towards Lu Yao, the two of them ignored Gu Lei and left.

Gu Lei's face sank, and when she looked up, she saw Gu Duan walking in from outside, so she hurriedly changed her face and shouted, "Brother! ”

Gu Duan actually saw Cheng Chu at first sight, and was about to go over, when she heard Gu Lei calling her, she had to walk in front of her, "What's wrong?" ”

"Oh, I just want to eat with you." Gu Lei said shyly.

Gu Duan glanced at Lu Yao and said with a smile: "With Lu Yao by your side, you still need me!" ”

"That's different!" Gu Lei said coquettishly: "I don't care! Why don't you stay with me? ”

"Don't make a fuss!" Gu Duan patted her head and said to Lu Yao: "She is spoiled by me, please take care of her more." I'll go over to eat first. Good bye! ”

After speaking, regardless of Gu Lei's expression, he turned around and left.

Xu Yuelin saw him coming over and teased: "Yo, why are you willing to leave your baby sister today?" ”

The others laughed and said nothing, but they all wanted to see how Gu Duan answered.

"She is already with Lu Yao, although I am an elder brother, it is better to leave more space for them." Gu Duandao.

Xu Yuelin shrugged her shoulders and didn't say anything more. Cheng Chu asked, "How is the business in the store during this time?" "After Master Liu left, business dropped a lot, and Gu Duan was the store manager, so it was probably quite troublesome. This store has put a lot of effort into getting it up, and naturally there is no reason to let it go out of business.

"It's okay! Barely breaking even. Gu Duan was really worried. The store opened by the Liu couple on the road next to it grabbed a lot of customers, and the business of the store was greatly affected. He was now wondering if he should hire a cook from home to help out.

He's not the kind of person who gets by and gets by. Now that the store is in his hands, he naturally wants to take care of it better and more prosperous.

"Hmm...... Looks like it's time for me to rescue you. Good news for you, a chef will be coming soon, and the business will be saved. Cheng Chu said.

"Chef? Who? ”

"You don't know his name, but you've eaten what he makes. Do you still remember the last time Grandpa Jingzhou's birthday, he made the longevity noodles that day. ”

Longevity noodles that day?

Xu Yuelin remembered. Although Gu Jingzhou was fascinated that day, he was still very impressed by the food that day. At that time, it was the birthday of the two old men, and the guests present also followed to eat longevity noodles. I still remember that the noodles were delicious at that time, and Xu Yuelin wanted to lick her fingers.

"Is he coming?" Xu Yuelin and Chen Hua reacted, and suddenly burst into tears, "When will he come, let's pick up the airport!" "Then I went straight to the store and had a pasta first.

Compared with the two foodies, Chen Ya and Gu Duan noticed another point, "Why did he come?" ”

"I inadvertently told Jing Zhou last time, Jing Zhou said that since the store also has his share, he didn't help much before, and now he just contributed. Well, it's about a week! "It's not that you can come right away, you always have to take care of something.

"That's great!" Gu Duan couldn't help but shout. The master's craftsmanship, I didn't say anything. After eating, I basically want to eat it a second time, and I'm afraid that there will be no business in the store at that time?

The major events in his heart have been settled, and Gu Duan's appetite has improved a lot.

"By the way, we're going to go to the store at noon in the future to help." Xu Yuelin said, "This ghost weather, the heat kills me." "She is very afraid of heat, and the temperature is a little high, and she is covered in sweat. So now she basically sweats all day long, and the night is fine, there is a lotus pond under the dormitory, and there is some wind. But the lunch break at noon was miserable, and I couldn't sleep at all. Every time I woke up, my back was soaked with sweat.

"But is it too late?" There were only two hours in between.

"Today it has been announced that the time has been changed, because of the hot weather, classes will end at 11 o'clock in the morning and classes will be changed to 3 o'clock in the afternoon. So let's say we have four hours in between. Not to mention to help, even if it is to take a cooler, it is good. Otherwise, we will die of heat. ”

Looking at the appearance of a few of them, Gu Duan laughed, "It's good that you come to help, when the pastry chef comes, the business will definitely be very good by then, and there will definitely be not enough manpower." ”

"Then it's settled."

After that, Xu Yuelin and several people disappeared into the cafeteria at noon.

The characters in the noodle shop have not changed much compared to before, but they are more vibrant. Because the store is closed and the air conditioner is turned on, the air will be very turbid. Gu Duan moved another circle of potted plants around.

With the company of the air conditioner, Xu Yuelin felt alive again. At the same time, Gu Duan specially vacated the rest room at the back and left them with a few lunch breaks.

After a few comfortable days, Xu Yuelin thought that the pastry chef would come in a few days, and it was natural that the delicious things should be shared with the people around her. So after discussing with a few people, she specially designed an invitation card to invite the people who received the meal vouchers to come and taste it for free.

"I don't understand why I got this meal ticket? Wouldn't it be nice to just come and eat it? Chen said.

"You don't understand that! Although it is said that the master will come over at that time, it is impossible for him to make every bowl, wouldn't that be exhausting? I got this meal coupon to distinguish it from the ordinary master. Gu Duan explained, "In the future, the pasta made by the master himself will be available in limited quantities every day." ”

"Oh, then I want two." Mom and Dad, exactly two copies.

"I want a lot of ......estimates," Xu Yuelin calculated, "it may cost dozens of ...... "The old people in the nursing home, as well as Ding Yiping and a few of them in the company, and then Grandpa Gu......

"If there are so many people, the date will be divided." -

"Okay."

The relatives and friends around several people are people who want to have status and status. After eating, just make an advertisement, the effect is absolutely good.

While they were planning things for the store, the store opened by the Liu couple on the road next to it suffered a blow. For no other reason, Master Liu's body collapsed.

This incident was heard from the old people when Xu Yuelin went to the nursing home to deliver meal tickets.

"It's no wonder that I work day and night like that, and my body doesn't collapse. The couple was also black-hearted, and they didn't care about the old man recruiting a few apprentices, and they set up a stool to collect money, so they knew that the old man was busy coming in and out. Now Master Liu is tired, see what they make money. ”

Thinking of the indignant words of the old people in her mind, Xu Yuelin sometimes couldn't help but wonder what happened to this society? Obviously there is a better and more comfortable life, but everyone likes to toss around for money? Is money more important than family health?

When she carried the fruit basket to the hospital, the Liu family was not around, and only Master Liu was lying on the bed alone. His expression was much haggard than the last time he saw him, his lips were slightly white, and his hands were dripping.

Seeing her coming, Master Liu was a little surprised, "What are you doing so politely, and you also bring fruit." You sit as you please, and the other patients don't mind. "In the public ward where the old man lives, there are other patients besides him.

"Good!" Xu Yuelin put the fruit on the cabinet next to him, thinking that the last time Mrs. Liu was also hospitalized like this, the strangeness in her heart was suddenly magnified more and more.

"Why are you so desperate? Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, if you collapse, they should be useless and useless. Xu Yuelin couldn't help but say, she used to think that Master Liu was a person who understood very well, how could he practice himself.

"That's right. But I can't help but want to help more, I'm almost seventy, who knows how many years to live. The two of them pressed all the treasures in this store, and they could help a little more. Master Liu smiled bitterly. How could he not be sad about his son's attitude? But I couldn't help but do nothing.

"Then you have to pay attention to your body, too. It's definitely not okay for the store to rely on you alone, it's better to take in another apprentice, even if you can't do it in the future, the sound of the store will not be affected. ”

"Hmmm! They're already looking. ”

Mr. and Mrs. Liu are indeed looking for it, and it has been several days since Master Liu fell ill. There was almost no business in the store, and the two of them couldn't help but think, if their father died in the future, wouldn't their store also be opened?

Liu Dabao's first thought was that he would come to learn the craft from Master Liu, and the craft was safer in his own hands. But now that Master Liu is sick, he has no chance to learn. So the husband and wife pondered for a long time, and finally hit the idea on the two apprentices in the noodle shop.

So the two of them looked for a while, came to the door with gifts, found the two apprentices, and told them what they meant.

"Don't worry, the salary we open here will definitely be higher than that of the noodle shop."

The two apprentices glanced at each other, and in the face of a salary increase, there was no reason not to be impressed.

"But...... We've signed a contract with the noodle shop! "The labor contract is something that everyone has to sign, and if they change jobs now, won't they have to pay a large amount of liquidated damages?

"If you want to resign, they can't let you!" The contract is generally not dead, unless it is a person who involves some core information, and a large amount of liquidated damages will be paid before the contract period is not reached.

"This ...... Let's think again! The two apprentices did not immediately agree to the couple's words, but decided to think about it again.

"Okay, you guys think about it. But the sooner the better, if you think about it, you can call us directly. ”

After the Liu couple left, the two apprentices discussed.

"What do you think?" One of the shorter ones asked.

"It's going to be a good look! They said that it was good to raise the salary again, and we deliberately told the store manager that we had been poached. If the noodle shop also gives us a raise, then why bother to change places? If the noodle shop doesn't raise wages, then go. ”

"But wouldn't that be a little unkind?" After all, it was the teaching of others that made it what it is today.

"Whatever he is, people go to high places and water flows to low places, is it possible that you will stay in the noodle shop for the rest of your life?"

"This ...... Then I'll think again! ”

The next day, the two apprentices arrived at the shop, and the shorter ones were preparing as usual, while the taller ones were sitting there with their legs crossed, looking leisurely.

"Don't you do things?" After squeezing the vegetable juice, the short apprentice frowned when he saw that he was still sitting.

"I'm waiting for the store manager. If he doesn't give me a raise, then I'll pat my ass and leave, and do what else I do. The tall man didn't care.

"Oh! I thought about it for a long time and decided to stay. The short man said honestly. He knows his own level, and now that couple invited them over for a momentary sake, what if it was okay, would it be so high? If he does such an unkind thing for a little money, who will accept it if he wants to spread it in the future? So in the end, he decided to stay and fulfill the deadline on the contract.

"That's up to you." The tall man only thought he was a coward, and ignored him.

When Gu Duan came, he naturally knew about someone's sabotage, so he took advantage of the fact that the store had not yet opened, and asked him to talk to the side.

"Did something happen? I don't think you're in good spirits today. Gu Duan asked.

"Oh, it's not a big deal, it's just that the old man in the family is sick and needs ......money," said the tall apprentice.

"Need money? I can advance your next month's salary. ”

"But those wages are simply not enough. I paid the rent and used some pocket money, and there was basically no money left over for a month. I thought about it, maybe this was not the right place for me at all. ”

Gu Duan was stunned, "You want to leave?" ”

"Hmm. No way, the salary is too low......"

Gu Duan understood what he meant.

It turned out that I wanted a raise.

But is he qualified for a raise?

It's true that there are only two of them in the store at the moment, but that doesn't mean that he can't recruit other people, and it's not that the store can't be opened without them. Where exactly did he have the self-confidence to ask for a raise?

During the apprenticeship, the salary of 3,000 a month is not low!

I wanted to sneer in my heart, but Gu Duan was still amiable on the surface, "Since this is the case, then I have no reason to stop you from going to the higher ideals of the main ball." ”

I didn't expect that there was no room for negotiation, so the store manager gave this sentence directly. I wanted to say something more, but I couldn't say anything. The tall apprentice simply stood up, didn't bother any more, took off his overalls and left.

Gu Duan thought about it, and still went to find the remaining one, "Don't you also think the salary is low?" ”

"Nope!" The short apprentice shook his head, three thousand a month, to be honest, not very tall, but not bad either. And he was an apprentice. It's good to be able to get so much salary and learn a craft at the same time. "This salary is already okay, and I know my own level."

"That's good." If there were extra words, Gu Duan didn't say much. Everyone has their own choice, not to mention, the noodle chef of the troublesome Gu family is coming, so there is no need for him to worry.

There is one less chef in the store, and there are fewer people in the store. At the same time, the store on the next road, which had been closed for a few days, finally opened again. When people saw that the new chef turned out to be the one from the noodle shop, they couldn't help but be curious.

Sun Xiaoqin saw that business was improving, and she was proud! Hearing others ask what the hell was going on, they simply lied, saying that the tall apprentice came here because he couldn't stand the pastry cutting corners.

There were many people in the shop, and the words of the proprietress immediately spread around. The next day, the noodle shop's turnover dropped by another level.

When Master Liu came back from the hospital, he heard his son and daughter-in-law talking about the business in the store at the dinner table, and couldn't help asking, "Have you recruited someone?" ”

"That's right!" Sun Xiaoqin said with a smile, "You still know this person, it's the one you brought in the noodle shop at the beginning." It's a pity that the little man is too stupid to come over, otherwise the noodle shop would have closed. ”

Chef Liu heard a hint of something wrong, "Why did the people in the noodle shop come to our shop?" "Could it be that Yue Lin let it, but they are also competitors, and Yue Lin will not be stupid to do this!

Just as he was puzzled, he heard his daughter-in-law say slightly smugly: "Money can make ghosts grind, and the salary we open is higher than that of the noodle shop, how can he not come?" ”

Hearing this, Master Liu's face sank. He slammed his chopsticks on the table and said angrily, "You mean you went to the noodle shop to dig people's corners?" ”

Liu Dabao saw that the old man was angry, so he hurriedly stood up and explained: "That's not called digging corners, they were originally brought out by you!" If it weren't for you, where would they have come from? Where did the noodle shop get such a good business? You see, the noodle shop's business plummeted after you left, doesn't that mean that you gave them everything before? Now you're just taking it back. ”

Liu Dabao didn't say that it was okay, but as soon as he said it, Master Liu's face became even more ugly.

"You still think what you're doing is reasonable, right? See if I don't kill you skinless thing! Master Liu was furious, grabbed the things at hand and threw them at his son, "I sent you to read a book for so many years, and I don't even know the most basic conscience, was your heart eaten by a dog, or was your eyes confused by that dung?" If you say that you are still a college student, I will be ashamed of you when you say it. Walk! If you don't want to be embarrassed, I still have to be embarrassed, let's go and apologize to others now! ”

"Dad, don't make trouble!" Liu Dabao broke free of Master Liu's hand, "You are old and confused!" Poaching people is also a normal business competition, if they don't want to be poached, why don't they raise their own wages? ”

"Normal business competition, but also deliberately smearing black people? How can I say that I keep hearing some gossip about noodle shops, is it all your doing? ”

"How is that possible...... It's because they cut corners themselves, and it's hard for people to say it......" Sun Xiaoqin's eyes were a little evasive when she said this, and her confidence was always insufficient.

Master Liu saw that his son was also nodding beside him, and suddenly felt a sadness in his heart.

My son, who was good when he was a child, why is he crooked now, and he doesn't learn well? Don't they all say that reading makes a man wise? College students are also a show talent after graduating from ancient times, why are people getting more and more muddy?

"Forget it!" Master Liu sighed and sat back on the chair, "What do you like, I can't control it, and I don't want to care about it." Tomorrow I will move back to the nursing home, so as not to hinder the eyes of the two of you. "Yue Lin is right, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren. Being alive can help him, but what about dying? You have to let them fall on their heels to know the value of being down-to-earth.

"Don't! Dad, you haven't taught me how to make noodles yet! Liu Dabao smiled shyly.

"Didn't you teach? When you were in junior high school, I taught you all the crafts. If you really want to know, remember it slowly! After Master Liu finished speaking, he got up and went back to the room.

The rest Liu Dabao and Sun Xiaoqin were a little dumbfounded.

"Why is the old man so roundabout!" Sun Xiaoqin said dissatisfied, "Obviously they are all a family, how can there be any reason to turn your elbow out?" What did he really teach you? ”

Liu Dabao thought about it carefully, "It seems that I have been taught, when the original store at home has not been sold." But after such a long time, who remembers! ”

"Then why don't we wait for the old man's anger to subside, and then we will say good things?"

"That's all there is to it for now!"

It was good for the husband and wife to discuss, but unfortunately, when they got up the next day, Master Liu had already packed his clothes and returned to the nursing home. The two of them went to invite again, but they didn't even see the old man's face, so they were stopped out. R1152
