The hairpin was in her hand, with flowing gold patterns and smooth jade. Under the soft light in the private room, it emitted a charming luster.
Wei Ersao's eyes were originally dodging, but when she saw the hairpin handed to her by Su Huaiyue, her eyes instantly widened, as if she had seen some rare treasure.
Her eyes were full of shock, her pupils slightly dilated with surprise, mixed with a hint of greed that was difficult to conceal.
As someone who had lived in the capital, she certainly recognized this hairpin. It was a treasure carefully crafted by the famous Ruyifang in the capital. Each one was unique and priceless. One would cost a lot of money, which was simply beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Her Adam's apple rolled slightly, and she reached out her hand involuntarily, her fingers trembling slightly as she carefully took it.
The moment the hairpin touched her palm, she felt as if she had touched the most precious treasure in the world, and an intoxicated expression appeared on her face.
She couldn't let go of the hairpin, turning it over and over in her hands, her eyes full of love and obsession, as if she wanted to engrave every detail of the hairpin into her mind.
However, a hint of reserve still appeared on her face, and she said politely, "I should be the one giving you the grand opening gift, why is it the other way around? Sister-in-law, you are so polite."
Her voice trembled slightly. As she spoke, she showed no intention of returning the hairpin. She held it tightly, as if she was afraid that someone else would snatch it away.
Her eyes moved back and forth between the hairpin and Su Huaiyue's face. She was surprised by the generous gift, but also a little uneasy, not knowing the real intention behind Su Huaiyue's move.
Su Huaiyue smiled faintly without saying a word. Her smile was like a flower blooming in spring, gentle and charming, making it impossible to guess what she was thinking.
She raised her hand slightly, lifted the hair on her temples, and then calmly took out a jade pendant from her bosom, her movements elegant and leisurely.
This jade pendant has a warm texture and transparent color, and emits a soft glow under the light.
With a faint smile on her lips, she handed the jade pendant to Wei Ersao with a natural and generous gesture, and a look of gentle expectation in her eyes.
Wei Ersao's gaze was originally fixed on the precious hairpin in her hand. When she saw Su Huaiyue handing her the jade pendant, she was startled.
Her eyes were wide open, with a look of surprise on her face. She slowly raised her head with a hint of doubt in her eyes and reached out to take the jade pendant.
When she saw the three words "Zhong Yueju" clearly engraved on the jade pendant, her brows furrowed slightly, her face full of confusion, and a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes.
I felt very strange in my heart. This "Zhong Yue Ju" was the newly opened restaurant of Su Huaiyue. These three words were engraved on the jade pendant, so there must be some special meaning in it.
So, she raised her eyes to look at Su Huaiyue, her eyes full of inquiry, and opened her mouth slightly, and said: "Sister-in-law, what does this mean?"
Su Huaiyue smiled gently, her eyes curved into crescent shapes, with a bright light flashing in them. She stuffed the jade pendant directly into Wei Ersao's arms, and then said with a smile: "Second sister-in-law, from now on, the management of Zhongyueju's kitchen will be handed over to you. You only need to be responsible for management, and you don't need to do the work of a cook. I believe in your ability, second sister-in-law, and you will definitely be able to manage the kitchen in an orderly manner."
Her voice was clear and pleasant, with unquestionable trust and expectation, and the smile on her face was sincere and warm.
When Wei Ersao heard this, she was stunned at first, then her eyes lit up instantly, a look of surprise flashed across her face, and then the corners of her mouth raised high, and her face suddenly beamed with joy.
Her eyes narrowed into slits, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes stretched out, revealing a row of teeth that were not very neat but full of joy.
Her cheeks flushed and her expression was excited and thrilled.
She knew very well that the kitchen was a good place to make money, and there was a lot of room for maneuver in purchasing ingredients and arranging manpower.
And Su Huaiyue actually took the initiative to give herself such a good job. Not only did she not have to work as hard as an ordinary cook, but she could also order others around at will. This was a great thing for her.
Thinking of this, she smiled even more brightly, her eyes almost invisible.
She said quickly, her eyes full of gratitude and flattery: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will manage the kitchen properly and won't let you worry. If there is anything, I will report to you as soon as possible."
As she did so, she held the jade pendant tightly in her hand, as if it was a symbol of her newfound power. A smug smile spread across her face, and she was secretly planning various arrangements for the future in the kitchen.
Mrs. Wei tightly grasped the jade pendant that symbolized the management rights of the kitchen, her heart filled with joy and pride.
After finishing her meal, she could no longer suppress her inner anxiety. She didn't even bother to exchange a few words with Su Huaiyue and Wei Yunrou. She stood up in a hurry, with an unconcealable excitement on her face, and walked briskly towards the kitchen.
The moment she stepped into the kitchen, her eyes lit up.
The kitchen is brightly lit, spacious and bright, with all kinds of kitchen utensils neatly arranged. The floor is so clean that you can almost see your reflection in it. The air is filled with the fragrance of food and the faint smell of fireworks.
She nodded with satisfaction, a hint of arrogance on her face, and then hung the precious jade pendant around her waist. The jade pendant swayed gently between her clothes, as if declaring her new power.
When the guys in the kitchen saw her come in, they all stopped what they were doing, smiled respectfully, and greeted her in unison: "Hello, Madam Wei Er!"
The sound was uniform and loud, which instantly satisfied Wei Ersao's vanity.
She raised her chin slightly, a hint of pride in her eyes, nodded slightly, and responded with a pretentious look: "Well, work hard and don't make any mistakes."
In the next few days, Wei Ersao seemed to be possessed and ran to the kitchen whether she had something to do or not.
She paced back and forth in the kitchen with her hands behind her back, scanning every corner with sharp eyes. Sometimes she frowned and found fault with the waiter, complaining that the vegetables were not cut evenly enough; sometimes she went to the stove to taste the newly made dish, and then made a few serious comments, as if she was an expert in cooking.
Her salary was paid on a daily basis, and since she took over the management of the kitchen, she had become much more financially comfortable.
She looked at the increasing amount of silver in her hands and her heart was filled with joy.
Things that I used to be reluctant to buy, I can now pay for without hesitation.
She began to dress herself up carefully, bought new clothes and jewelry, and looked much more energetic than before.
