[Delicate Beauty + Rough Han Military Officer] (Fictional Military Marriage + Bringing Kids to Join the Army + Substitute Marriage + Stepmother + Dual Chastity)
Gifted medical student Chu Yue...
Chu Yue told the master her name and walked back with Lu Yuanbao.
The voice of a vendor on the road was heard shouting, "Tanghulu - selling Tanghulu - Tanghulu -"
Chu Yue had bought the candied haws here once before. She and Lu Yuanbao liked them very much, especially Lu Yuanbao, whose eyes were almost glued to the red candied haws and he was reluctant to move away.
After eating the candied haws, he licked the bamboo stick used to string the candied haws for a long time with his tongue.
Today is a festival, so we should celebrate. The red candied haws look festive.
Chu Yue called the vendor selling candied haws and said, "I want four bunches."
The vendor smiled warmly when he saw the big customer, took out the candied haws and handed them over, "Here you go, four strings of candied haws."
The candied haws wrapped in a layer of crystal clear sugar coating look so bright and tempting that it makes people drool.
Chu Yue handed a string to Lu Yuanbao. She ate it generously without having to fight with the child for it. Both of them were happy. She took the other two strings in her hand and walked back to the shop.
As soon as I entered the store, Zhou Genzhu was no longer there, but the store was in a mess.
Ye Zhaodi was very angry and was walking around the store, cleaning up the mess.
When she saw Chu Yue, she immediately shouted "Boss".
"Boss! You're back! That Zhou Paopi is finally gone! You don't know, he even wanted to move the tables and chairs away, he clearly said that these things were left for you. Don't worry, I kept a close eye on them and snatched them all from him, I definitely didn't let him take anything extra!"
"Zhao Di, you did a great job." Chu Yue nodded. She was very satisfied with the rejuvenated Ye Zhao Di. She hired Ye Zhao Di because she was impressed by the wild and growing power in her.
This is what life is supposed to be like.
"My name is Chu Yue, I'm a year or two older than you. You don't have to call me boss. If you like, just call me Sister Yue."
"This...how can this be? The boss is the boss, this is not okay." Ye Zhaodi was very reserved in front of Chu Yue and was a little uncomfortable.
Chu Yue smiled and said, "Just shout a few more times, and you'll get used to it."
"Yue... Yue... Sister Yue." Ye Zhaodi opened her mouth and finally called out.
After hearing this, Chu Yue handed over two strings of red candied haws, "Zhao Di, these two strings of candied haws, one is for you, and one is for your brother. Don't be reluctant to eat them, you both have one."
With just these simple words, Ye Zhaodi's eyes suddenly turned red as she looked at the red candied haws.
From the previous conversation with Zhou Genzhu, Chu Yue had a general idea of Ye Zhaodi's background: an orphan without a father or a mother, with an even younger brother at home. In order to support her brother, she had to work at a young age.
In fact, in terms of age, Ye Zhaodi herself is still a child.
If Chu Yue only gave her a string of candied haws, Ye Zhaodi would definitely not be willing to eat it. She would hide the candied haws and take it back for her brother to eat.
So she bought two skewers so that Ye Zhaodi could eat them with confidence.
"Sister Yue, no, no... You hired me to work and helped me deal with Zhou Baopi. You've been good enough to me, better than anyone else. How can I eat your food again?" Ye Zhaodi's eyes were red. She shook her head and waved her hands. She said nervously, "You said before that the salary of 20 yuan a month is too high. I know you said that to piss off Zhou Baopi. Just give me 10 yuan a month, and I will work hard! Whatever you ask me to do, I can do it!"
"Zhao Di, I said twenty yuan, and it means twenty yuan. There is no reason to take it back. I don't need you to do anything now. I just want you to sit down and have a good bite of the candied haws."
Chu Yue was very strong and she pulled Ye Zhaodi to sit down and stuffed the red candied haws into her hands.
"eat!"
Ye Zhaodi was completely at a loss. The care and kindness that Chu Yue showed her were something she had never felt from a stranger in her life.
Lu Yuanbao said, "Sister Zhaodi, please eat quickly. The candied haws are delicious."
"Okay... okay... I'll eat..."
Ye Zhaodi lowered her head and carefully licked a bite of the candied haws. When her taste buds felt the sweetness, tears as big as beans fell down.
She quickly turned around and wiped away her unstoppable tears with her sleeves.
The brave and bold girl dared to give Zhou Genzhu a scissors blow, but she cried and trembled because of a little bit of warmth.
Candied haws are really delicious!
Chu Yue did not say anything to make Ye Zhaodi cry. She just ate the candied haws quietly and covered Lu Yuanbao's eyes to prevent him from staring at Ye Zhaodi.
When she had almost finished eating the candied haws, Ye Zhaodi's emotions gradually calmed down, and she continued to work with full enthusiasm!
This time Chu Yue did not stop her and let her busy herself back and forth in the store.
Soon, the master carpenter came.
Chu Yue drew a simple sketch and replanned the layout of the store and the shelves that would be needed.
The old master understood immediately, "Are you trying to make it look like a supply and marketing cooperative?"
"Yes, that's it!"
Chu Yue has considered it in her mind that customers are more likely to become repeat customers if they are familiar with the stores they visit frequently.
It is a new store. If the store is made similar to a supply and marketing cooperative, it will give customers a sense of familiarity, and customers will feel more at ease when they visit the store for the first time.
The old master patted his chest and said, "That's easy. I can make the shelves in the supply and marketing cooperative with my eyes closed. It's just that glass is more expensive..."
Therefore, Chu Yue negotiated the price with the master craftsman, set a construction period of ten days, and paid a deposit.
After the master left, Chu Yue said to Ye Zhaodi, "Zhaodi, don't wipe it. When the master comes to work later, it will still be dirty. Come here first and sit opposite me."
"Okay, Sister Yue."
Ye Zhaodi put down the rag, rubbed her hands, and sat in front of Chu Yue.
Chu Yue asked her, "Can you write?"
"Yes, I went to primary school, but only until the fifth grade. Later, my family couldn't afford it, so I stopped." Ye Zhaodi answered truthfully.
If you have been educated, you can write, and if you can write, you can keep accounts. Chu Yue nodded with satisfaction.
"Zhao Di, in the next few days, I will not come to the store every day and ask you to watch over it. I will give you two tasks. First, watch the progress of the decoration in the store and check the work of the carpenters. Second, the rest of the time, you can go to the supply and marketing cooperative to learn from them."
"Steal...steal the skills?"
Chu Yue said, "When you have free time, hang out in the supply and marketing cooperative. You don't have to buy anything. Just stand in front of the counter and watch the sales staff. See how they entertain customers, how they use scales, how they sell things, and how they pack things. Write down everything they say and do, and then practice it well. These are your jobs in the future."
