Transmigrated to the 1950s, she became an orphan without parents, but there's no need to fear!
With a spatial ability and the care of the whole village, she managed to get through the dis...
Let him figure these things out himself.
Hearing a knock, Zhao Haozheng pushed the door open and entered. Seeing that everyone in the study was working hard, he quietly withdrew.
It wasn't until I heard the knock on the door again that I realized it was already dark. Was dinner about to start?
The four of them went downstairs and found that all the international students had arrived today.
Zhang Hongmei greeted everyone with a smile, explaining that dinner was late because there were so many people.
Zhang Hongmei approached Wang Xinyi and asked, "Aunt Wang, are you hungry? Shall I steam an egg for you?"
"Okay, I am actually a bit hungry."
"Hehe, just sit here and wait, it will be ready in a little while."
Zhang Hongmei went into the kitchen, where six girls were helping Shen Yunfang cook.
He greeted them with a smile before preparing to steam the eggs.
I cracked two eggs into a bowl, beat them, and stirred them well. Then I poured a bowl of boiling water into it, added olive oil and salt, put it in a steamer, and it was cooked in ten minutes.
Everyone in the kitchen except Shen Yunfang was secretly observing Zhang Hongmei, but she didn't care.
He carried the steamed egg custard to the dining room and then helped Wang Xinyi over.
"Aunt Wang, please try my steamed egg custard. I think dinner won't be for another hour, so you should eat it all."
"Hmm, it looks very appetizing." Wang Xinyi sat down, took the spoon from Zhang Hongmei, and started scooping food into her mouth one spoonful at a time.
After finishing a bowl of steamed egg custard, I said, "It's quite tender. Let me tell you, next time when you steam egg custard, remember to add a little less water."
"Okay, let me help you to your bedroom to rest. Sitting all the time isn't good for you. And where's Uncle Zhao? Why isn't he home today?"
"Busy checking inventory, settling accounts, and paying workers' wages."
"Hehe, this is really a tedious task. I'll go help him tomorrow."
"Hehe, he couldn't be happier. Right now, Hao is busy with company matters, and your Uncle Zhao is handling everything himself. I can't help him much with my current health."
"I can go. I may not be good at other things, but I'm very good at accounting."
"Hehe, that's a great help to him."
"Please rest inside, I'll go out and sit with them."
"Go ahead, don't push yourself. Sit for a while, then go back and rest."
"Hehe, I see. I guess he's just there to keep me company."
When the people in the living room saw Zhang Hongmei coming over, Zeng Zhongkang offered her a seat.
How did everyone do on the exams?
Some nodded, while others looked confused.
"The holidays are coming up soon, what are your plans?"
Kong Yushun cleared his throat. "We came here today to ask you and Mr. Zhao if you could arrange some short-term work for us?"
"Oh? What do you want to do? Or what skills do you have? Mr. Zhao's family owns a textile factory, I don't know. I'm a trading company, we don't have any physical stores, we just buy and sell on the fly, so I really can't say."
"Hehe, anything is fine, even physical labor is fine."
"Is that so? You can ask Mr. Zhao when he gets back. I'll have to ask Zhao Haozheng, since he's in charge of sales and the four of us are only in charge of R&D. I really don't know who we're short of."
Zhao Hao heard Zhang Hongmei mention him: "Young Master Roy has already arranged for the sales staff to be in place. There are no holidays this year, so starting tomorrow, I will be going on a business trip with them. The first place we will go is a place bordering J country, so we can't arrange this person."
"Hehe. Then we'll just have to wait for Mr. Zhao to return."
"Hehe, the textile factory can arrange temporary workers, but they are all physical labor, such as loading and unloading goods, and organizing the warehouse."
"Are you all capable? You haven't worked for months; can you handle this sudden physical labor?"
Several men all said they had no problem with it.
"Okay, I'll just tell my dad when he gets back."
"What's wrong?" Zhao Tiancheng entered the living room.
"It was a few of them who wanted to work as temporary workers in the textile factory."
"Oh. Okay, you guys wait a moment, I'll go wash up." Zhao Tiancheng was actually just worried about Wang Xinyi; he wouldn't feel at ease without checking on her.
More than ten minutes later, Zhao Tiancheng came out after changing his clothes. He sat in the seat that Zhao Hao had given up.
"Hongmei, I'm going to grab your laborers tomorrow. You'll have to work for me for three days. All the accounts are giving me a headache."
“Okay, no problem. Just call me when you leave tomorrow morning. You two talk, I’ll go check on the kitchen.” Zhang Hongmei said and left.
The dumplings in the kitchen were almost ready. Actually, Shen Yunfang's arrangement was quite good. With so many people eating, cooking dishes would take too much time. Since there were many people helping with the cooking, it was better to make dumplings. This way, they could satisfy their cravings and it was also more convenient.
What can I do?
"I don't need you. It'll be too humid later. Go play outside."
"Hehe, then I'll wait to eat." After saying that, he left the kitchen and went to Wang Xinyi's room.
"Aunt Wang, the dumplings will be ready soon. Would you like to eat out?"
"No, I'm not hungry right now. I'll eat when I'm hungry."
"This is good too. There are too many people and it's too noisy. Also, eating smaller meals more frequently is a good habit."
"Hehe, your Uncle Zhao came in just now, and I told him I could help him. He looked so tired that his exhaustion vanished immediately. It was quite funny."
"Hehe, Uncle Zhao just told me."
"Only you can help him. He doesn't trust or know anyone else."
"Hehe, yes, those people want to work as temporary workers in the textile factory. Actually, I completely agree with them. They have to be self-reliant and independent, not depend on others. They should do what they can, even if it doesn't support them, it's a different story."
These are grown men, in the prime of their lives; doing some physical labor shouldn't be a problem for them. Hopefully, they can hold on.
"Hehe, don't worry about these things. With your Uncle Zhao here, they definitely won't be too tired."
"Hehe, actually it's good to be a little tired, so they can cherish the present moment more."
Why don't you lie down and rest? I'm going out; I don't want to wait to be called for dinner.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was quite harmonious, and today was their first time eating meat; the dumplings were pork and onion, and they smelled delicious.
Everyone was so engrossed in eating that they kept their heads down. Zhang Hongmei ate ten dumplings and then put them down to go to the kitchen to let someone else eat. The dumplings had to be cooked in batches.
After dinner, everyone sat in the living room chatting. It seemed like they were planning to stay here. But would there be enough room?
The men's jobs were all arranged, and the remaining three girls were envious. Who wouldn't want more money in their hands, so they could maybe buy the clothes they liked?
"Hehe, you three really don't have any jobs suitable for you? You could try working at a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown."
