Since there was only this table of customers in the restaurant, the food was served very efficiently.
After a few minutes, the fried eggs with oyster mushrooms ordered by the little girl was served.
Xu Meijuan picked up the chopsticks and put some into the little girl's bowl.
"Xiaoyu, try it quickly."
"Thank you, sister!"
The little girl thanked him happily, picked up the chopsticks and tried to pick up the food in the bowl, but her hands were not strong enough and she couldn't pick it up for a while.
When Xu Meijuan was about to help, she saw the little girl picked up the bowl and shoveled the scrambled eggs into her mouth.
"Um...how is it, is it delicious?"
“It’s delicious.”
The little girl nodded with a smile and said to everyone, "Brother, sister-in-law, everyone eat!"
Chen Wang smiled and said, "Eat it all. She can take care of herself."
As he said this, he picked up a piece of fried eggs with oyster mushrooms and put it into his mouth.
The taste was pretty good, but in his opinion, it was still a little different from the dishes cooked by his own wife.
After tasting it, Lin Xiuqin and Chen Dazhuang also gave it positive reviews.
Soon after, other dishes were served.
Since I wasn't planning on drinking, I just asked the proprietress to bring the food.
Everyone was chatting and laughing while enjoying the food, and the atmosphere at the table was quite good.
"Come on, since you don't drink alcohol, let's use tea instead. Let's all toast to Comrade Xiao Xu."
Chen Wang raised his glass and shouted.
Lin Xiuqin and Chen Dazhuang hurriedly put down their chopsticks and picked up their teacups.
"Sister, I respect you too!"
The little girl followed suit and raised her glass with both hands.
Xu Meijuan smiled brightly and raised her glass to express her gratitude: "Thank you, everyone. Cheers!"
"cheers!!!"
After drinking a cup together, everyone continued to eat happily.
While we were eating, two more waves of customers came into the restaurant.
When Chen Wang and his friends had almost finished eating, a few men walked into the store, talking and laughing.
"Awang, look, isn't that the big brother from before?"
Chen Dazhuang was sitting facing the door. When he saw the middle-aged man who was surrounded by people walking in, he said something to Chen Wang in a surprised tone.
Chen Wang turned his head and looked, with a hint of surprise on his face.
The middle-aged man was the generous gourmet who had patronized their business several times before when they were selling meat at the market.
I didn't see it at the market today, but I didn't expect to run into it here.
"dad!"
Suddenly, a voice sounded nearby.
Chen Wang and others looked at Xu Meijuan in surprise.
Xu Meijuan had already stood up and was looking at the middle-aged man with surprise.
The man looked at her when he heard her shouting and asked in surprise: "Xiaojuan? Why are you here?"
"My friend invited me to dinner."
Xu Meijuan replied with a smile.
Hearing this, the man looked at Chen Wang, slightly stunned, and said, "Comrade, why is it you? Do you know my Xiaojuan?"
Chen Wang stood up quickly and said with a smile: "I have sold goods at the purchasing station several times. Thanks to Comrade Xiao Xu's help, I was able to sell them at such a high price. So this time I specially invited her to dinner to express my gratitude. I didn't expect that she is your daughter."
"Dad, Chen Wang, do you... know each other?"
Xu Meijuan was also dumbfounded.
"We often go to the market to sell meat after we kill prey. Your father is a regular customer of ours."
Chen Wang explained with a smile.
"Uh... So that's how it is."
Xu Meijuan put her hand on her forehead and figured it out in an instant.
Of course, she knew best that her father liked to eat this.
"Hahaha... Young Boss, you are my daughter's old customer, and I am your old customer. I didn't expect that we are so destined to meet!"
Xu Tiancheng said with a big laugh.
Chen Wang also nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, Uncle Xu, why don't you guys come and eat something together and add a few more dishes."
"No, no, you guys have almost finished eating, I'll just eat a little with a few colleagues."
"All right."
"That's... your wife?"
Xu Tiancheng's eyes fell on Lin Xiuqin.
"Yes, this is my wife, and this is my sister."
Chen Wang quickly introduced his wife and the little girl.
"Hello, uncle!"
The little girl was not at all stage-shy. She waved her little hands and greeted everyone crisply.
"Hey, hello, hello."
Xu Tiancheng nodded with a smile on his face.
He has an only daughter and is a daughter-obsessed person. He has an instinctive liking for little girls.
At this time, the other people around Xu Tiancheng saw this and asked curiously about Chen Wang's background, wanting to go up and make friends with him.
"He's a very nice little brother. Okay, okay, let's not disturb my daughter and her friends from having dinner. Let's go sit at that table."
Xu Tiancheng pointed to an empty table over there, and then said to Chen Wang: "You guys continue eating, we'll go over there."
"OK."
Chen Wang smiled and nodded.
After watching Xu Tiancheng and the others walk over there and take their seats, Chen Wang sat down and looked at Xu Meijuan and asked, "Does your father work at the supply and marketing cooperative?"
He had been to the supply and marketing cooperative several times, and two of the people in this group were faces he had seen at the supply and marketing cooperative.
Judging from the respectful attitude of those people towards Xu's father, it is very likely that Xu's father holds an important position in the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Yes, my father is in charge of the supply and marketing cooperative in this town. Everyone calls him Director Xu."
Xu Meijuan replied with a smile.
When these words were spoken, Chen Wang and the other two were stunned with shock.
In the 1980s, sales clerks in supply and marketing cooperatives, bus drivers, doctors, postmen, film projectionists, and doctors were all the most prestigious and influential professions.
Among them, being a salesperson in a supply and marketing cooperative has the easiest job, the highest income, and a stable job, making it an enviable job for everyone.
As the head of the supply and marketing cooperative in this town, one can imagine the status and position of Xu Meijuan's father.
Don't think that this is just a supply and marketing cooperative in a small town. You should know that this is a lucrative job with real power. You can't hold this position without some background.
Chen Wang picked up the teacup and drank some water to calm himself down, but Comrade Xiao Xu said something shocking again.
"My grandfather and my father were both soldiers. My grandfather died in the war when my father and his children were young. My father was also injured in the war more than ten years ago. After retiring, he was assigned to work in the supply and marketing cooperative in this town. After working as a salesman for a few years, he was promoted to director."
Good job!
It turns out that Comrade Xiao Xu is a descendant of a meritorious serviceman.
Before traveling through time, Chen Wang often saw people saying on the Internet: Ten years of hard study is not as good as three generations of business, and three generations of business are not as good as your ancestors carrying guns.
I didn’t have such friends around me before, and I couldn’t get in touch with them at all.
At this moment, he truly realized the value of this sentence.
"Excuse me, does your father have any brothers or sisters?"
Chen Wang asked cautiously.
"Yes, my father has many brothers and sisters. My eldest uncle and second uncle both work in the city. I also have two aunts. One married and moved to Guangdong Province, and the other teaches at a middle school in the city."
"Ahem...eat some vegetables."
Chen Wang smiled and changed the subject, not daring to ask any more questions.
