Chapter 239 Li'er



It seemed to be telling Gu Lili that it had been resolved.

With a smile in her eyes, Gu Lili affectionately picked it up and carried it back to the room.

The little guy was really hungry, so Gu Lili put it down and it ran towards the milk bowl.

When the little one got to the milk bowl, he started licking the milk in it with his tongue.

Looking at this chubby-faced guy, Gu Lili couldn't help but feel a little self-deprecating.

How could I have mistaken my mother for a kitten back then?

The tiger cub at that time was probably only a few days old. It was small, so it's normal for it to make a mistake.

As Gu Lili watched the little one drink milk, she mentally found a way to save face.

It seems a bit inappropriate to keep calling him "little guy" all the time.

Since all the pets in the house have names, why not give it one too?

Gu Lili took out paper and pen from her spatial storage. While watching the little one drink milk, she wrote three names on three slips of paper in front of her.

"Wow, you're so great! You finished it so quickly!" Gu Lili praised, looking at the empty milk bowl in front of the little tiger.

The little guy has quite an appetite; in no time, the big bowl of goat milk in front of him was completely empty.

The little one licked the milk stains from the corner of his mouth with his pink tongue while rubbing his little head against Gu Lili's hand.

Gu Lili stroked its little head and said, "I've given you three names, choose one you like."

After saying that, Gu Lili placed the three slips of paper on the ground and let the little guy choose for himself.

After finishing, Gu Lili couldn't help but laugh again; she felt like she was possessed.

Even if this little guy is intelligent, he still can't read.

However, Gu Lili had put her heart into all three names, and she could choose any of them.

The little tiger shook its head and looked back and forth in front of the three pieces of paper, as if it could really understand them.

It carefully examined the three slips of paper, and finally picked up the one in the very middle.

Gu Lili took the note, which clearly had the word "Li'er" written on it. It was as if she and Gu Lili were on the same wavelength.

Back then, they mistook it for a raccoon dog, and now that it has chosen this name, it's just as fate would have it.

"Li'er, okay, then you'll be called Li'er from now on!" Gu Lili hugged it tightly, rubbing it as she said affectionately.

The little guy seemed quite pleased with his name, constantly nudging Gu Lili with his head.

"Miss, two people have come to inquire about our restaurant's hiring situation."

Just as Gu Lili and Li'er were playing, Gu Chenxi's voice rang out from outside the door.

Hearing this, Gu Lili was full of surprise. The note had probably been posted on the door for half an hour, so how come someone came to recruit so quickly?

Gu Lili rubbed the little guy's head, put it on the ground, let it play by itself for a while, and then pushed open the door and went out.

Before leaving, Gu Lili carefully locked the door.

This is a restaurant, with people coming and going. If the raccoon runs away, it will definitely cause panic.

After locking the door, Gu Lili nodded to Gu Chenxi and said, "Let's go take a look."

The two arrived at the front hall one after the other, where the two people Gu Chenxi had mentioned were already waiting.

Upon seeing Gu Lili approach, the two immediately knelt down to pay their respects.

"Greetings, Princess Yongning."

Gu Lili gave Gu Chenxi a wink, and Gu Chenxi stepped forward to help the two of them up.

Gu Lili subtly observed the two of them for a moment, then asked calmly, "Did you two come together?"

The two men shook their heads repeatedly upon hearing this, but Huang Zhixiong stepped forward and answered first, "I don't know him. We came in one after the other."

Gu Lili nodded after hearing this. Huang San looked shrewd, while the other was rather taciturn.

"What are your names? How old are you? Where do you live? Are you married?" Gu Lili asked four questions in a row.

Since we're hiring shop assistants, we should get to know them well so we can use them with peace of mind.

Huang Zhixiong answered first, "My name is Huang Zhixiong, I'm fifteen, I live in Donghai Town, and I'm not married yet."

Gu Lili nodded and looked at the other person standing in front of Huang Zhixiong.

"My name is Wanshun, I am sixteen years old, and my family also lives in Donghai Town. I am not married," Wanshun replied in a low voice.

The two were of the right age, and their homes were close by, so there was no need to worry about arranging accommodations.

Since the two men were able to come in and apply after seeing the job offer letter outside, they must be literate enough to know a few words.

Judging from their appearances, both of them were acceptable. After thinking about it, Gu Lili decided to keep them for trial.

"Alright, you two can stay and try out for now. Our restaurant's trial period is thirty days. If I'm not satisfied with anything during these thirty days, I'll pay you and let you go. After thirty days, your wages will increase to fifteen coins a day. If you do a good job, there will be bonuses," Gu Lili said seriously.

Gu Lili knew that she couldn't be too lax in managing people; she had to show some authority.

Originally, the two people in front of them were older than the siblings, and if they were too gentle, it would be difficult to manage them in the future.

Gu Lili explained the details, and the two agreed to come early the next morning. They then left one after the other.

After resting for a while, Gu Lili and the others had dinner early and then began preparing the ingredients for dinner.

It was packed again tonight, and some people who couldn't get a table ended up taking their food home to eat.

So, just as the sun was about to set, Gu Lili and the others had already finished work and gone home.

Gu Lili fed the little fox, then carried it onto the carriage and hurried home.

When they got home, Mrs. Li had already boiled the water for washing up.

After washing up, Gu Lili fell asleep immediately.

The next day, Gu Lili still took Li'er to the restaurant.

Two shop assistants were hired today, so Aunt Zhang didn't come to help.

Uncle Zhang's leg hasn't fully recovered yet, and someone still needs to be at home.

As soon as they got off the carriage, they saw that Huang Zhixiong was already waiting at the door.

This was somewhat unexpected for Gu Lili. Huang Zhixiong clearly had shrewdness written all over his face; she never expected him to be the first to arrive.

Upon seeing Gu Lili and the others arrive, Huang Zhixiong hurriedly greeted them with a smile.

Gu Lili, holding the raccoon dog, smiled and nodded at Huang Zhixiong as a greeting.

"Wow, County Princess, your raccoon has grown quite a bit!" Huang Zhixiong couldn't help but exclaim upon seeing the raccoon.

Moreover, the raccoon's pattern was something he had never seen before.
