This is not what Dr. Zhao told her!
These are all signs that her health is slowly getting better.
"When have you ever seen a Chinese medicine practitioner tell the patient his true condition?" Hu Lin said rather boredly.
"Oh." Li Aihua felt that there was some truth in it, but it seemed to be a fallacy.
But now, she did not forget about it after listening to it, but was trying to understand and analyze it.
Just like her daughter taught her to observe people and observe the details.
The two of them had a clear goal in mind and headed straight for the state-owned hotel.
The state-owned restaurant was idle at that time. The waiter was still the same waiter, and the people were still taking a lazily rest as usual.
Hearing the noise, he looked over and said, "Breakfast for sale—"
When he saw clearly that it was Hu Lin and the other two who came, the words that he had said a thousand times in his mind were stuck.
The waiter stood up in surprise, his eyes widened for a moment, "You are finally here. The manager saw that you didn't come a few days ago, so he waited at the door of the store every day."
As he spoke, the waiter stepped forward and said, "Come in, I'll take you to see the manager."
Seeing this, the two of them didn't waste any time and followed the waiter to the manager's office.
Hu Lin walked on the concrete floor, looking around.
The walls of the entire hotel are thick and the structure is symmetrical. The overall decoration color is gray, and there are green-hatted pear-shaped white woven lamps hanging overhead.
The words "Long Live the Motherland" are written in paint on the wall, as well as the Chairman's portrait, the Chairman's quotations and other things that are characteristic of the era.
The tan tables, chairs and benches were neatly arranged and so clean that there was nothing wrong with them.
As expected of a high-consumption place, the environment looks neat and tidy, in stark contrast to the dusty outside.
The business is booming, not only because of the government-run iron sign and the fact that it is the only restaurant in the county, but also because of the good quality of the restaurant itself.
The waiter led them through the dining room and stopped at a place that looked like it was next to a warehouse.
"Knock knock--" the waiter knocked on the door.
"Come in." A strong voice came from inside.
The waiter opened the door and led the mother and daughter in. "Manager, the people you asked me to keep an eye on are here today. I brought them here."
The administrator who was looking at the purchase list looked up at the mother and daughter, nodded to the waiter, then lowered his head and continued to handle his business.
The waiter went out and poured two cups of tea and asked the mother and daughter to sit aside and wait.
Li Aihua put the backpack beside her legs and sat on the chair stiffly. She took the tea handed to her by the waiter and thanked him politely.
Hu Lin looked at the jasmine tea floating in the enamel cup, smelling the rich tea aroma, which was of inferior quality to her but a scarce luxury in this era, and felt a sense of satisfaction in her chest.
She hadn't smelled the fragrance of tea or flowers for more than two years, but this jasmine tea was just what she wanted.
Even though they knew that the manager was leaving them alone because they did not show up as scheduled.
With this jasmine flower, she was happy to waste time here.
In this matter, it was them who breached the contract.
What matters in doing business is integrity. If you break your promise, you should bear the consequences.
Hu Lin endured the pain by drinking the slightly bitter yet floral tea for more than half an hour.
As time went by, Li Aihua became increasingly uneasy.
From time to time, he would look at the clock hanging on the opposite wall, or glance at the manager who was concentrating on writing at frequent intervals.
After waiting for about an hour, the manager sitting at the desk finally stopped writing, put the pen cap back on, and sorted and put the documents away.
Only then did he look at them seriously.
"You kept me waiting for so long! I thought you guys had raped me."
The manager crossed his legs, interlocked his fingers on his thighs, and looked calm.
He looked at the mother and daughter with a calm look and spoke calmly.
But the gleam in his eyes from time to time made people know that he was ready for negotiation.
“As the saying goes, good things come with waiting, and your wait is worth it, Manager.
In order to hunt these prey, my father would go up the mountain and sit there after work every day, eating a few mouthfuls of food.
After a few days of hard work, we finally caught some plump game."
Hu Lin put down the enamel cup, looked at the manager's calm expression, curled the corners of his mouth, and made himself look kinder and more like a businessman.
"Little sister, can you talk business?" The manager learned from the last lesson.
And this time was different from the past, as he was the one who wanted to get money, so he interrupted the conversation at the first opportunity.
So as to avoid being led by the nose like last time.
"Why not? My mom is watching here. If I do something wrong, she will intervene.
When we were at home, we said, let me try it.
Besides, it was originally agreed between you and me, so now you want to go back on your word and not talk to me?"
Hu Lin pretended to be a child, and his words suddenly became arrogant, with a bit of arrogance and the appearance of someone who had been spoiled since childhood.
When the manager heard this, he frowned and looked at Li Aihua disapprovingly, "Big sister?"
The manager hinted to Li Aihua to take care of the child.
How can we let children fool around when we are talking about serious matters?
Li Aihua forced a smile, panic flashed in her eyes, and then she replied calmly, "Manager, my daughter is very smart!
Otherwise we wouldn't agree to it, right? Don't worry, I'll be watching, nothing will go wrong."
Li Aihua's words were barely acceptable. Her attitude and stance supported Hu Lin, but she ignored the dignity of a manager.
