Chapter 333 Stir-fried Pork with Chrysanthemum



Chapter 333 Stir-fried Pork with Chrysanthemum

On this day, just as Chen Meijuan got home, Liang Yanfang came back.

Chen Meijuan was still wearing the blue sweater that Xia Tang bought for her. She was very happy and turned around to show it to Liang Yanfang.

She has a slim figure and her clothes fit her well, so she actually looks pretty good.

Liang Yanfang snorted:

"The money she used to buy the sweater was all earned by you guys."

After hearing this, Chen Meijuan felt uneasy again.

Liang Yanfang came up to her and asked:

"You said before that you wanted to be a regular employee, have you been a regular employee now?"

Chen Meijuan said honestly:

"Not yet. After tomorrow, I will be a regular employee."

"Oh...what took so long..."

Liang Yanfang's triangular eyes twitched for a moment, and she said in a sinister tone:

"You say, is it because the trial pay is too low that she gave you such a long time? Otherwise, who can do the kitchen work? What's the point of the trial?"

Chen Meijuan didn't say anything, but she was not so happy in her heart.

yes.

You're already that old, why do you have to have a job trial?

It’s not like I don’t know how to do it!

Sometimes, people are just like this.

When you are chewing an apple, if no one tells you otherwise, you might think the apple is worthless and has good juice.

However, if someone says something irresponsible, the whole apple might be thrown away.

Chen Meijuan didn't plan to throw away the apple, but it didn't taste as delicious after all.

Liang Yanfang asked again:

"Meijuan, don't blame me for being nosy. You guys collect the money every day. Does Xia Tang collect it himself, or do you guys do it?"

"Sometimes it was her, but now she's often in the kitchen, so I'm the one who cleans up. It was a mess at first, but I got the hang of it over time."

Chen Meijuan tried her best to appear to be at ease, but she did not tell Liang Yanfang that although Xia Tang had given her the task of collecting the money, she had not finished elementary school and was not good at counting. Sometimes when there were too many people, she could not come over.

Liang Yanfang was in the mood at this time:

"Let you collect it! That's good! Then why don't you keep some money?"

"What kind of money?"

Chen Meijuan was stunned for a moment, and waved her hands hurriedly.

"I can't do that. Besides, if my boss finds out, he'll kick me out!"

Although she was not as happy these days as she was a while ago, she actually understood that it was not easy to find this job.

It's not worth it to lose your job just for a few cents!

Liang Yanfang touched her arm, and smiled as if mockingly:

"You are so stupid."

"You've already said that, there are so many people in your group, how can she know if you charge a dime more or a dime less?"

"Besides, this is normal. All my relatives who are being fucked are like this. Those who work in state-owned restaurants secretly take pork elbows and pork heads home! It's only people like you who are timid... hehe."

Liang Yanfang talked to her for a long time, until it was late, and then she slowly left.

After Liang Yanfang left, Chen Meijuan felt uneasy for a long time.

In my mind, I wondered how much money Xia Tang had made, and then I wondered how Chen Minyun could make a dollar even though she had just come back from work. Then I thought that if I did it myself, I might not be worse than Xia Tang...

The thoughts never stopped in my mind. I couldn't sleep well at night. When I woke up the next morning, I had particularly dark circles under my eyes.

No need to make breakfast in the morning.

She packed up and prepared to go out, but unexpectedly, she bumped into Chen Minzhi as soon as she stepped out.

Chen Meijuan felt a little guilty subconsciously.

"Sister Minzhi, why are you here so early?"

After all, this is not Chen Minzhi's way to work.

Unexpectedly, Chen Minzhi ignored her greetings and asked:

"Chen Meijuan, let me ask you, has Minyun's salary at Xia Tang been leaked to others?"

Chen Meijuan's face suddenly turned red.

Chen Minzhi confirmed it immediately and said angrily:

"Chen Meijuan, what did I tell you before?"

"Minyun works for Xia Tang. Xia Tang let her stay there because she felt sorry for her. What right do you have to say that?"

It turned out that Chen Meijuan was a little afraid of Chen Minzhi.

But after playing with Liang Yanfang for several days, plus tossing and turning all night last night, Chen Meijuan suddenly felt angry.

She suddenly said loudly:

"Even if she felt sorry for Minyun, didn't she give her money? What did I say wrong?"

"I just said that. Why are you yelling at me? What did I do?"

"you!"

Chen Minzhi didn't expect Chen Meijuan to say that, and she actually choked.

Before she could react, Chen Meijuan had already pushed her aside and went downstairs.

"Chen Meijuan! Chen Meijuan!"

Chen Minzhi chased for a few steps, but Chen Meijuan had already rushed downstairs and disappeared.

Looking in the direction where she had disappeared, Chen Minzhi paused for a long time and sighed.

Chen Meijuan hurried towards Tangji Snack Bar and walked all the way to the door with a very stiff expression on her face.

She didn't understand why Chen Minzhi said that to her.

Just because this job was introduced to her by Chen Minzhi, does that mean she has to be servile and listen to her scolding?

And what about Chen Minyun’s salary? She said it was a part-time job, but why was the salary exactly the same as their trial salary?

And what about Ma Dafeng? She is so old, why is her salary the same as hers? Why?

The more Chen Meijuan thought about it, the more unfair it felt, and she couldn't help but get embarrassed while working.

"Sister Meijuan, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing that she didn't seem to be very interested in Jing'er, Xia Tang asked.

Chen Meijuan said firmly:

"Nothing, I'm doing my job."

After saying that, he walked aside by himself.

Tangji Snack Shop is still very busy throughout the day.

Although the three of us were busy before, we were chatting and laughing with each other, and the atmosphere was able to offset the hard work.

However, today, after Chen Meijuan came, she didn't say a word and just worked hard.

It makes the atmosphere more depressing than the work done.

Xia Tang felt strange, but then he thought that everyone has worries, so he didn't take it to heart.

But while working, he looked at Chen Meijuan a few more times.

After a busy day, I received a large number of customers in the evening:

There were about ten men and women eating together. They ordered not only rice noodles, but also fried potatoes and rice wine.

It looked like they were co-workers from a nearby factory who had come to their small shop for a meal.

The leader was still an old customer.

They came here two days ago, and today they brought quite a few people with them, saying they wanted to try Xia Tang’s “special” craftsmanship.

Seeing that they ordered a lot, Xia Tang went to the kitchen and planned to use the ready-made ingredients to make two side dishes for them.

Not for selling money, just for publicity.

She plans to make a dish of stir-fried pork with chrysanthemum.

Chrysanthemum is rarely used as food in other provinces.

However, in Yunnan, a major flower-producing province, eating flowers has become a unique embellishment in life.

In Yuncheng, people have always had the habit of eating flowers that match the season.

Now it is autumn, and using chrysanthemum in cooking can improve eyesight and reduce internal heat, and the taste is also amazing.

It so happened that I had some chrysanthemums left today, so I stir-fried them with shredded pork, which is also a rare delicacy.

Xia Tang was certain in his heart, and he began to get busy with the preparations.

I've finished a busy period outside.

Chen Meijuan leaned against the door frame, watching Xia Tang busy in the kitchen, feeling unhappy.

She knew that Xia Tang was going to get free food.

But is it worth it?

It's just a few pots of rice noodles, is it necessary to give two extra dishes?

Or does Xia Tang make enough money that he doesn't care about these three guys at all?

She suddenly felt uncomfortable.

They earn so much, but it’s still just one dollar a day for them.

Just like that... Chen Minyun.

Chen Meijuan glanced at Chen Minyun who was concentrating on collecting the dishes, and felt even worse.

Although, Chen Minyun has made some progress in the past two days and dares to go into the house to collect the dishes.

But in the end, I'm not the kind of person who can help.

But what Xia Tang gave her was the same as what she gave herself...

It’s not fair. It’s so unfair.

Chen Meijuan felt even more upset.

After a while, Xia Tang brought out two dishes, one was stir-fried pork with chrysanthemum, and the other was spicy and sour potato shreds, both of which were good dishes to go with wine.

Naturally, everyone at the table thanked him and ate enthusiastically.

Xia Tang came out of the house and saw Chen Meijuan still leaning against the door, so he said:

"I'm going to check on my sour papaya. Remember to settle the bill later. Don't charge them for those two dishes."

Chen Meijuan nodded subconsciously.

But his eyes couldn't help but look at the people in the room.

She couldn't help but think of what Liang Yanfang had told her in the morning, about how those cashiers were sneaky and deceitful.

My mind didn’t want to think about it, but my heart couldn’t stop drifting to the past.

If... She meant if...

There are so many people here. If she only takes a little, she shouldn’t be noticed!

After a while, the people at that table finished their meal and asked the waiter to settle the bill.

Chen Meijuan walked over slowly and gave them food according to how much they ate.

Those people ate a total of six dollars and eighty cents.

After Chen Meijuan collected the bills, both small and large, she walked slowly to the cashier's desk as she did before.

There, there was a wooden box with a key on it. Normally, it could be locked by just twisting it, but since there were many people and things to do, Xia Tang would often simply lock it and leave the key inserted in it.

Chen Meijuan slowly opened the box and took out the money she had just paid.

The guests around had already left. The room was completely empty, with only Chen Minyun left, cleaning up the mess with her head down.

Chen Meijuan looked around and quickly put the three bills in her hand into her pocket.

The rest are put back into the box in the same way.

It was the first time she had done such a thing and her heart almost jumped out of her chest.

My hands are sweaty and stained with sweat, which makes me want to wipe them again and again.

No...it's impossible for anyone to see...

She comforted herself like this and tried to turn around, but the next second, her right wrist was grabbed tightly by someone.

She looked up in surprise, only to see Chen Minyun, who had just been cleaning up the dishes, looking at her intently. Her usually stiff face now looked more serious than ever before.

She said:

"Take it out."
