Chapter 312 85 Years Coming
The New Year of 1986 was relatively late, on February 20th.
In February, He Zhizhi, Chen Yuan and Ye Shuang, who were sent to Hai City to study, returned after completing their studies.
Su He specially asked Gu Jianhua to prepare a large table of delicious dishes to entertain her three generals.
"Sister Changyi, are you going to have a baby?"
The three of them were surprised to see that he was so happy.
They knew that the boss's daughter got married in May this year, but they didn't expect that she would have a baby so soon.
Seeing that Changyi's belly was getting bigger, Ye Shuang quickly got a stool for her to sit on, "Sister Changyi, are you about to give birth?"
Chang Yi smiled and said, "The expected date of delivery should be around early March."
He Zhizhi touched Changyi's belly and asked, "Sister Changyi, have you named the baby?"
"Yes, it's Sui Sui."
"Sui Sui, Sister Chang Yi, is the baby a boy or a girl?" Chen Yuan also asked.
Han Shuyan answered, "It's a girl."
"Oh, brother-in-law, what's your last name?" Chen Yuan asked Han Shuyan.
"Han."
"The last name is Han, Han Suisui, sounds nice."
"Sui Sui, when you come out, auntie will make you a cake!" He Zhizhi said to Chang Yi's belly.
Han Shuyan chatted with Chen Yuan, "I heard from my parents that you also learned how to make coffee, right?"
Chen Yuan, "Yes, the three of us are in the cake shop from Monday to Friday, learning how to make cakes, and on Saturdays and Sundays we go to the coffee shop to learn how to make coffee."
"Okay, I'll go try it when the store opens. I've never had coffee before." Han Shuyan said with a smile.
Chen Yuan scratched his head, "Brother-in-law's coffee is bitter. It smells very fragrant, but tastes bitter. I like the smell, not the drink."
"Really?"
"Yes, but many people like to drink it, especially young people. The coffee shop where we studied is always full every day."
Han Shuyan listened and said, "A coffee shop doesn't just sell coffee, right? Does it sell other things as well?"
"Yeah, the cafe we learned from has Western steak and pasta, as well as small desserts, cakes, mousse, etc."
"When customers come, they usually order two cups of coffee and a small dessert, which is considered afternoon tea."
Chen Yuan feels that drinking coffee with dessert is more acceptable than drinking coffee alone.
"Not bad, Western-style afternoon tea." Han Shuyan nodded.
Chen Yuan, "Brother-in-law, when Aunt Su's coffee shop opens, you and Sister Changyi can go and experience it."
"Uh-huh."
As a few people were chatting, the chef in the kitchen saw that the dishes had almost been cooked, so it was time to eat.
Su He also invited Wei Lan and her husband He Chunxu to come and have dinner together.
Wei Lan didn't know yet that the three of them had returned.
When he came over and saw He Zhizhi and the other two, he was surprised and asked, "How long will it take for you three to arrive?"
"Arrived this afternoon."
As soon as the three of them arrived, they put their luggage at home and came to their boss's place.
"Look at this, Haishi is indeed a good place. Chen Yuan has become a lot whiter and his skin is still elastic." Wei Lan touched the faces of several people.
Chen Yuan, "Sister Wei, what are you talking about? It makes me look a lot paler."
Wei Lan smiled, "Because you are born with dark skin."
He Zhizhi and Ye Shuang laughed. They had mentioned Chen Yuan's dark skin before, but Chen Yuan refused to admit it and kept saying that this was the true nature of a man.
Chen Yuan sighed, "Can we still have a pleasant chat?"
“But am I really white?”
Wei Lan nodded. "It's whiter now. It's really whiter."
He Zhizhi and Ye Shuang whispered behind each other, "Do you think Chen Yuan is too pale?"
"Maybe I don't feel anything because I see him every day."
Su He has never been a picky person, especially when it comes to food.
Braised pork with abalone, sea cucumber with scallions, and steamed yellow croaker are all the main dishes on the table.
After all the dishes were served, everyone took their seats and drank beer, liquor and soda.
Su He raised his cup and said, "Before we start eating, let me toast to our three great generals."
"From now on, the three of you will be the backbone of my store."
Chen Yuan, He Zhizhi, and Ye Shuang were full of confidence. "Auntie Su, when the store opens next year, you can check our learning results."
"Okay, okay, I believe you have learned it well."
"Come and eat." Su He picked up some food for the three people, one abalone for each person.
Chen Yuan knows how to flatter. He ate the abalone and said, "This dish made by my uncle is still delicious."
"I can't even get used to eating in Haishi."
As he said this, Gu Jianhua gave him two more pieces.
"There's enough food for today."
"Thank you, uncle."
At this moment, Chen Yuan suddenly realized that Jiang Siqi's previous behavior was just flattery.
Shen Chaoyang lived alone. He rented a house in Beijing and cooked for two days. Later he found it troublesome because there was no refrigerator in the house he rented, so the food he couldn't finish went bad.
So I just went to the bakery to eat.
It's not expensive for him to eat alone.
I came here today and happened to happen to have a dinner together. My son’s friend may even be a future partner, so Su He will not neglect him.
She brought a stool and called out, "Come on, Chaoyang, sit down and have dinner together."
Shen Chaoyang didn't hesitate, "Okay, Auntie."
Gu Jianhua got up and went to the kitchen to get some dishes and chopsticks. "How's business today?"
When Shen Chaoyang first came to Beijing, he learned from Su He and set up a stall to sell clothes and jewelry, making a lot of money every day.
"It's OK, about the same as yesterday."
Changan is right, selling clothes and small accessories does make money.
Gu Jianhua, "Just work hard, you will make a lot of money sooner or later."
"Well, I will try my best to buy a shop next year." Shen Chaoyang smiled.
Su He, "Chaoyang, are you going back home for the New Year?"
Shen Chaoyang shook his head and said, "I'm not going back. I'm going to spend the New Year in Beijing."
When he returned home, his brother and sister-in-law were weird again, and they talked about money every other sentence. It was very annoying and he couldn't have a peaceful year.
Su He, "Why don't you come to our house to celebrate the New Year instead of going back home alone?"
"Am I so popular? Uncle Su told me before that I should go back to his place for the New Year, and now you are inviting me again."
"It's difficult for me to make a choice." Shen Chaoyang said with a smile.
Su He said unhappily, "It's not that difficult. Come to our place for lunch and go to your uncle Su's house for dinner, or stay at your uncle Su's house for lunch and come to our place for dinner."
Shen Chaoyang smiled, "Okay, Auntie, I'll listen to you."
"Eat."
Su He picked up a piece of food for him with his chopsticks.
Shen Chaoyang felt that although Uncle Su and Aunt Su were not his family, they were better than family members because they were so kind to him.
After three rounds of drinks, everyone had almost finished their food.
Su He said to He Zhizhi, Ye Shuang and Chen Yuan, "You three should go back to work after the New Year. Take a good rest these days."
"By the way, I opened two stores, a coffee shop and a cake shop. I need one chef for the coffee shop and two chefs for the cake shop. Who of you wants to go to the coffee shop?"
Chen Yuan, "Aunt Su, let me say something off topic."
Su He was puzzled. "What?"
Chen Yuan chuckled, "The word 'Master' sounds really nice. From now on I will be Master Chen."
Everyone: “….”
Su He smiled, "Yes, Master Chen, you are the backbone of the store. You can be independent in the future."
