I didn't expect someone to ask me that day.
An eighteen-year-old young girl came. Her name was Chen Xiaohong. She had two thick black braids and big, bright eyes. Ye Xiaozhen was very satisfied with her appearance.
Then what's left is to see whether she is nimble and can calculate accurately and quickly.
"What's your education?"
"I graduated from junior high school, but I didn't get into high school, so my family wouldn't let me continue."
"Have you ever done anything else?"
"No, after graduation I stayed at home with my parents to take care of my brother. Last year my brother lived in the school dormitory, so I came out to look for a job."
Sounds good.
She is different from Liu Ying. Liu Ying's personality is not suitable for working at the front desk, but this girl speaks fluently and confidently, which makes her suitable for working at the front desk.
Xie Li asked again: "Then can you do it?"
The girl hesitated for a while and said, "It should be OK."
That shouldn't be the case.
Xie Li tested her calculation ability on the spot.
We have to try to figure out whether she failed the high school entrance exam because she is not good at math or is simply not good enough for the subject or whether she failed the entrance exam for normal reasons.
After trying it, it's ok, just enough for ordinary people.
They decided on her that day.
Ye Xiaozhen took out the contract they had signed and asked her to sign it. It was a two-month probation period, and the official contract would be signed after the probation period.
Same as future waiters, 60 yuan a month, bonus for good performance.
"Now we only work in the morning in our store, which is relatively easy. Your only task is to sell steamed buns in the morning, and then clean up the tables and chairs used by customers. You only work half a day every day."
Chen Xiaohong opened her mouth wide, "60 for only working half a day?"
"Yes, but this is only temporary. When our hotel opens, you will be responsible for taking orders for guests at noon and in the evening."
She understood it then.
The hotel hasn't opened yet, so it's not that busy for the time being.
But if the boss gave her 60, she would think that the boss was really nice.
If it were someone else, they would only get half the salary if they only worked half a day.
Being forced to stay at home to take care of her younger brother and sister, Chen Xiaohong was quite capable at the job.
After trying it for two days, they were quite satisfied with Chen Xiaohong.
Two days later, they recruited another little girl.
I just graduated from junior high school and started looking for a job.
She is younger than Chen Xiaohong, her name is Wang Qing, and she is not even seventeen years old.
This may be considered child labor in a few decades, but not now.
It is very difficult to get into high school now, and the job hunting season begins after junior high school graduation.
If you fail to get into high school, won't you have to go out and work?
Especially girls.
If it's a boy, he might be allowed to repeat his studies, or be sent somewhere to learn a skill or become an apprentice.
But most families don’t pay so much attention to girls. If they fail the exam, they will be sent out to work.
The salary is the same as Chen Xiaohong's, 60 yuan a month.
For a girl from an ordinary family, this is a very good job.
The only downside is that I was a little tired during those two hours.
But the rest time is long. I am busy for almost two hours every day and only work half a day.
As for the boss's comment that there will be a lot of things to do once the hotel is open, we'll have to wait until it opens.
At least before the business started, they could earn a day's pay for half a day's work, so it was a good deal.
…
The plaque was made and hung high on the window of the steamed buns shop, which made the whole steamed buns shop look more classy.
"Hey, Xiaozhen, this plaque will have some meaning once it is hung up."
Ye Xiaozhen looked at the plaque with a smile.
Xie Li added, "The carved buns and steamed buns next to it are really well carved. The craftsman has great skills. Xiaozhen, how much did this sign cost?"
"It's not cheap. Thirty dollars."
"Thirty yuan is enough for this craft, it's not expensive."
When Xie Linan came back, he saw the two of them standing under the plaque and discussing things.
"Wow, it's already been done so quickly?"
"Well, I told the chef that my shop is open, but I don't have a sign yet, so he rushed to make one for me."
The chef likes to eat her buns and makes them with extra care.
"That's just the point, Xiaozhen, are you planning to turn it into a brand?"
"Of course, it's already a brand." Ye Xiaozhen said, "I'll try it for half a year, and when I've accumulated enough fame, I'll start opening branches."
"Where are you going?"
Ye Xiaozhen thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the pedestrian street and see if there's a suitable shop. It doesn't have to be very big, about 20 will do. We can get the raw buns, and they can steam them and sell them."
She had arranged all the plans, and some of her advanced ideas shocked Xie Li.
She asked Xie Linan privately, "Was Xiaozhen really stupid when she first came?"
She now suspected that people saying she was a fool was just a rumor, and that Sun Qing was just making it up because he couldn't stand her.
Xie Linan said: "Don't you know whether she is stupid or not? You left her when she was already in her teens."
Well……
Well, Xie Li's doubts were immediately dispelled.
When she first met Ye Xiaozhen, she was indeed a little fool.
…
That afternoon, they were busy making new varieties when Xie Linan suddenly came back from outside and said to Ye Xiaozhen, "Xiaozhen, Sun Qing will be shot tomorrow."
Ye Xiaozhen was stunned and turned to look at him, "Can we still go for the tour?"
"No, I'll tell you."
Xie Li next to him said, "You should let your mother know about this. Find out the specific time first, then go to your mother's grave to pay your respects and tell her that you have informed her."
This is what I mean.
That's what should be done.
Ye Xiaozhen washed and dried her hands and said, "Then let's go buy some candles, paper money, and other offerings first, and then get a string of firecrackers for my mother to hear."
Xie Linan smiled and said, "Okay, then change your clothes. It's getting late. We have to go buy something now."
It's not a festival now, so these things are not available everywhere.
I visited several stores and they took out last year's stock from the rafters.
In addition to candles, paper money and firecrackers, I also bought some fruits, candies, dried fruits and so on.
When we got home, Xie Li steamed a piece of braised pork with pork belly.
She said, "Stick the chopsticks here. This is the best way to offer sacrifices."
"Okay, thanks, sis."
Xie Linan had already found out the exact time of the execution: 11:00 noon.
They set out early in the morning and arrived at the cemetery at around 10:00 in the morning.
The villagers heard about Sun Qing's shooting. When they returned to the village, they heard everyone discussing it.
Especially when he saw Ye Xiaozhen and Xie Linan playing that trick in front of Zheng Xiaoqin's grave, he was even more certain of the fact that Tiansun Qing was shot to death.
"Wow, oh my god, that's fast."
"It's not that fast. It's been several months since the trial ended."
"By the way, where are Ye Xiaoqiang and Ye Xiaochun? Ye Xiaoqiang came back yesterday, and I haven't seen them since early this morning."
"It should be the last time I saw Sun Qing. Oh, I wanted to see him, but he wouldn't let me."
