Chapter 332
"Dad, Mom, I brought back some pork offal and braised food from Su Ji. We'll have meat dishes tonight."
After Liang Xiuyu entered the house, she lowered her head to change her shoes while talking loudly.
"Xiu'er is back~ Did you go to Su Ji today? Did Xiao Jiang invite you?"
The voice sounded strange, so I looked up and saw that my eldest and second cousins were both at my house.
"Well, it wasn't Xiao Jiang who invited me. I just wanted to try the porridge that you guys were so worried about."
Liang Xiuyu emphasized her worry, and Manager Wu touched his nose guiltily and said with a smile, "I saw that you and Xiao Jiang got along well before, so I said he was a good person."
"Yes, it's good. It's open and generous. It's suitable for making friends."
After hearing her say this, several elders showed their delight. It seems that this little girl has finally come to her senses. This time there is hope.
"But I'm talking about making friends, not dating. No one wants to date me."
Manager Wu said, "Xiu'er, you just met. How can you be so sure that you won't have a deeper relationship in the future?"
"Because he looks like a smart guy, not stupid at all!"
The four elders asked in unison: "What do you mean?"
"You'd think, wouldn't others think the same? My two cousins own restaurants and introduced me to them with a purpose. If he really wanted to date me, how could he continue working at Su Ji? Isn't this a dilemma? He's not stupid, how could he act like this?"
After saying that, she didn't care about the elders' reactions and walked directly into the kitchen with the takeaway box.
Liang's mother and father looked at each other and said, "Is this going to work?"
Manager Wu and Boss Wu also looked at each other and said, "This won't work!"
Because she has been favored since childhood, Liang Xiuyu has always been a person who sticks to her word. If Jiang Fengyi said he was not in a relationship, they could still try to get him to agree, but if it was Liang Xiuyu who spoke up, then it would be too difficult to force the matter, and they could only shake their heads with regret.
Liang Xiuyu's words that she would often bring friends here were not empty talk. The girls in the office were very solid dining partners. Not only did they eat together at work, but they also got together to eat after work and on weekends.
Ever since Liang Xiuyu strongly recommended "Su Ji Food Shop" to them, they basically come here to eat every two days. Today they have raw porridge, two days later they have pork rice, and two days later they have braised rice. Anyway, there are so many varieties that it is impossible to get tired of it in a short time.
But something unexpected happened that day. When they finished their lunch and were about to go home for lunch, Manager Wu showed up.
"Xiu'er, are you coming to eat too?"
"Little cousin? What are you doing here?"
"What else could we do in a restaurant? To eat!"
After Manager Wu finished speaking, he leaned close to her ear and said, "I'm still not giving up. I want to talk to Xiao Jiang again. This time, I won't set any conditions. I'll let him set them. I'll try my best to meet all the requirements."
Liang Xiuyu looked at him in amazement and sighed, "Uncle, no wonder my mother said you were the most shameless in their generation. Xiao Jiang has rejected you several times, and you still come?"
"Hey, if he rejects me again today, that would make it seven times. I call that perseverance. You need that spirit to succeed."
Liang Xiuyu looked at the porridge kitchen and said, "You can't just find someone to come to the store directly. If the boss finds out, how will they carry out their work in the future?"
"Eh~ I'm not going to tell his boss, so how can I know? Besides, didn't Xiao Jiang say his boss trusts him? If he's being targeted for this, then he's not as good as he says!"
"...You're really a bit annoying."
Liang Xiuyu's colleague went back first, and she stayed to keep an eye on her cousin, so as not to let him do anything out of line.
Manager Wu didn't go in to find Jiang Fengyi directly. He ordered a bowl of porridge and greeted him when he put down the meal ticket.
Seeing him coming into the store, Jiang Fengyi became alert and pulled the curtain of the porridge cooking window to prevent him from seeing anything happening.
"Little cousin, did you see that? Their attitude is already very clear. Don't waste your energy. If you have the time, go look for more. Maybe Su Ji is not the only place that can cook this porridge."
Manager Wu said dejectedly, "We did. Ever since Su Ji started making shenggun porridge, several other places in the city have followed suit. I've tried them all, and while they all taste okay, they're still far behind Su Ji. Since we're opening a restaurant, we definitely have to find the best. Otherwise, if the food is mediocre, it's pointless."
Manager Wu was turned away and felt that there would be no room for negotiation today. He decided it would be better to wait in the alley tonight, so he finished his porridge and left.
"Xiu'er, are you going back?"
"My colleague will be here soon, and I'll be waiting to go back to the office with her."
Liang Xiuyu stayed behind not to wait for her colleagues, but because she was waiting for fewer diners to dine in the restaurant so that she could call Jiang Fengyi out to talk.
She sat in the corner, looked around, and saw no other employees. She whispered to Jiang Fengyi, "My little cousin just came again, and he still doesn't seem to want to give up."
Jiang Fengyi said distressedly: "Yeah, I've rejected him so many times, but he still won't give up."
"I think you should talk to your boss about this and let them know. Look, my uncle has even come here. If your boss finds out one day, he might have some opinions about you."
"I don't have an opinion, but I do need to talk to Miaomiao and remind her that someone is trying to steal her business. But, Xiaoyu, why don't you seem to be speaking up for your cousin? Instead, you're giving advice to Su Ji. Isn't Lao Wu's food stall your uncle's?"
Jiang Fengyi didn't understand. Didn't Manager Wu introduce his niece to him in the beginning because he wanted to win him over?
Liang Xiuyu curled her lips and replied, "It's my uncle's shop, not mine. I don't like their pushy behavior. If I want to hire someone to work in the shop, I should be open and honest and lay out the salary I can offer. If it works, it works. If not, forget it. There's no such persistence. It's really ugly."
It turns out that Liang Xiuyu had never intended to help Manager Wu and others from the beginning, and she agreed to meet Jiang Fengyi simply out of curiosity about Su Ji's cuisine.
He actually introduced her to someone with the mentality of trying to please him, treating her like a cheap person. It's so annoying.
In order to prevent her cousin from continuing to pester her and making her feel embarrassed to come to Su Ji to eat, she might as well give Jiang Fengyi an idea to directly stop her cousin and the others from doing so.
