Chapter 45: Finding an Assistant

Lin Tiankuo thought of her, and Li Yi didn't know anything about her. She has been living a very regular life in recent times:

Get up early to cook, greet the old lady, practice calligraphy, take a nap, practice calligraphy, cook dinner, accompany the old lady to dinner, and practice calligraphy.

Xiaocui gave her sixty taels of silver, and she was not particularly excited, and still lived the same life.

During this period, the chef of Chen's mansion, Aunt Lu's husband, asked Xiaohong to pass the word for him, hoping to get her guidance.

Li Yi didn't want to hide her secrets, and it was really inconvenient to teach Chef Lu directly, so she asked Aunt Lu to come here to help.

Aunt Lu was very grateful for this opportunity, and she became more and more quick in her work. She is a talkative person, and she doesn't delay her work. Li Yi likes to hear her hearsay stories.

One day, I talked about a family near her home.

His father was in the dental business, and his mother was at home with four children. The eldest son is 14 years old this year and has been learning business with his father for more than half a year.

The family lives a harmonious and beautiful life, and the next step is to tell the eldest son a decent family matter.

But there were unforeseen circumstances, and the couple had an accident when they took their newborn daughter to Yue's house in the countryside. The three fell into the river along with the coachman.

The coachman was rescued, but his family of three drowned in the river, leaving behind three and a half children, which was very pitiful. Fortunately, the eldest is a person who can take care of things and takes good care of his two younger brothers.

Li Yi is fascinated by this story.

Self-discipline lives a peaceful life. Such a state of mind is conducive to practicing calligraphy, and her characters have improved rapidly, but there is still a certain gap compared with Chen Xiaoyun's words before.

Fortunately, the original owner's words are not very good-looking. You won't wonder why the words you write suddenly turn ugly.

She checked the yellow calendar, which said that it was good to travel tomorrow, so she decided to go out the next day.

She went out this time to find a suitable helper. I can only go out twice a month, which is too inconvenient. She needed someone who could help her outside the house.

In many novels, the heroine met a down-and-out poor boy and helped him. Then that person was grateful, and from then on he was willing to be the heroine's helper.

Anyone they meet is a person of extraordinary ability. No matter what that person's original identity is, when he meets the heroine, he will be willing to cut two parts of his previous life.

I wish I could have encountered something like this! Li Yi sat in the carriage and dreamed.

Today she asked the coachman to take her to the fair.

Every day facing those dishes in Chen's house, she can't change any tricks. Along the way, she paid special attention to whether there was a sound of chasing outside the car - she also wanted to imitate the heroine in the book to save people.

To her disappointment, the journey was peaceful.

The market is very lively, and there are many more people on the busiest street in the capital than the last time I went to the capital. After all, not everyone can afford to spend there, and there are still more ordinary people than rich people in the world.

In such an environment, Li Yi was very relaxed. She is just an ordinary person in modern society. The life of the eldest lady made her very tight, and such a leisurely visit to the market made her feel at ease for a long time.

The dishes in the bazaar are nothing special, just ordinary vegetables and fish. To her surprise, she saw the screw, and she asked the two Hongcui beside her, why hadn't they seen this in the mansion.

The answer is that it not only has less meat, but also has an earthy smell. Only ordinary people will buy it back and make it, and big families don't eat this.

When you see the screws, it is easy to think of the common things that can be eaten in the water, such as river mussels, shrimps, and crabs. I haven't seen anything, is it that the market doesn't sell it or everyone doesn't know that these things can be eaten?

She asked cautiously, "Is there anything else edible in the river besides fish and screws?" ”

It is said that boys like stupid girls, and many girls choose to pretend to be stupid to the object of their affection. I used to disdain this practice, but now I have fallen to the point of pretending to be stupid in front of girls.

"I don't know." Xiaohong replied very simply.

"When I was a child, I used to go to the river to play, and there were many animals with shells in the river. I don't know if I can eat it. Xiao Cui's answer made her no longer wonder.

There were many other items sold in the bazaar, and Li Yi was not too interested, so she took the two of them to the restaurant where they had eaten hot pot last time.

This time, without Song Yihan there, the three of them sat down to eat together. I tasted hot pot last time, and this time I ordered a barbecue. Although there is no cumin, the smell of barbecue is still there.

In the summer, a pot of charcoal was placed in front of the three of them, and they paid attention to the state of the ingredients on the iron net, and did not find that they had eaten and were sweating profusely.

"Miss, you can't eat any more. It's not meal time, and it's easy to accumulate food if you eat too much. ”

Xiaocui's reminder made Li Yi put down the chopsticks, but saw that the two of them didn't mean to stop: "Didn't you say that you would accumulate food?" ”

"We're not afraid, at most we won't have dinner when we go home."

"yes, where can we compare our dinner to this?"

Li Yi: "......"

After the two of them had eaten to their heart's content, she glanced at Xiao Cui. Xiao Cui understood, and said that she needed tea to relieve her greasy after eating too much, so she went to find Xiao Er.

"I've already instructed Xiao Er. I'll go and relieve myself, and you can just wait here. "Turn around and want to leave.

"Wait a minute." Li Yi got up and went with her.

"Then I can only wait for Sister Xiaohong to wait for tea here." Xiao Cui's words were full of apologies.

"Go, I'll wait here alone."

Li Yi and Xiaocui definitely didn't go to relieve themselves, and they came to another room around the corner.

There was a man inside who had been waiting for a long time - not Lin Tiankuo.

This man's name is Zhang Chao, and he is the child whose parents died unexpectedly and brought two younger brothers to Aunt Lu.

Li Yi listened to his story and thought that he was a suitable person and wanted him to use it for himself. Let Xiaocui secretly go out of the house and ask him to meet at this restaurant today.

Just now, Xiaocui left first, just to confirm whether he came.

"Xiaosheng Zhang Chao, I've seen this young lady." He saw Xiaocui come in with someone who looked like a young lady, and guessed that she was the one who made an appointment with him. Stand up and salute.

"Childe is polite, I don't have much time, do you know what I came to you for?" Li Yi didn't go around the corner, facing someone who might be her assistant, she wouldn't hide her resolute side.

"Yes, Miss Xiaocui told me." Zhang Chao said what he understood about his work:

"You're going to open a restaurant. Finding a store and resting a store is not something that can be done overnight. Because you can't go out often, you need someone to help you run errands and oversee the work. ”

After he finished speaking, Li Yi continued: "This is only the initial stage, the later recruitment, and the specific operation of the restaurant needs to be taken care of. ”

"I have no experience in recruiting people and operating restaurants." Zhang Chao has his own considerations, finding a store and resting is just a phased job. He did what he was asked to do, and he could withdraw when he got the money.

However, restaurant operation is a long-term job. Large families usually ask people to sign a deed of sale if they want to hire people for a long time, and although his life is difficult now, it is far from the point where he needs to sell himself into slavery.

He thought that Li Yi would not bother with him anymore when he heard his refusal. Who knew that Li Yi was still persuading him: "If you don't know, I can teach you." ”

Is it easy for me to find the right person? How could it be possible to let you go so easily? And he is willing to come today, he must be interested in helping me find a store.

It's just that she doesn't have much time today, and she can't find a reason why he refuses to agree.

"Then you can help me find a house first, and then we can talk about the rest of the matter slowly?" She took a step back, not wanting him to be stressed.
