Jiang Xiaoli nodded, "Okay, as long as I can eat, that's fine."
Holding the menu, she ordered while asking, "Has business been so good lately?"
Shao Ping'an nodded, "From the time we open in the morning until we close at night, there are basically no empty tables."
She was very satisfied. "You've worked hard. How's the preparation for the new store going?"
Shao Ping'an was fully aware of these circumstances, and he reported them to her one by one.
Once the dishes were served, Jiang Xiaoli patted him on the shoulder and said, "Work hard and pay attention to training your subordinates. You have a long future ahead of you."
Shao Ping'an nodded excitedly, "President Jiang, don't worry! I will definitely live up to your expectations!"
Zhong Yuan found his energetic demeanor familiar and asked, "Little Pear, your brainwashing techniques are truly inherited from Brother Zong. How do you two manage to do it?"
Jiang Xiaoli raised an eyebrow. "How can you call this brainwashing? I'm promising my employees a bright future!"
Everyone at the table laughed. Yan Chengcheng requested, "Xiao Li, let's organize some training for the sales staff from several stores. I think that way we won't have to worry about sales staff leaving anymore."
Even with her mouth full, Hu Jingxin didn't forget to support her, "Chengcheng is right!"
Zhong Yuan tore off a tissue and wiped her mouth. "Eat slowly, we're all sitting in the kitchen, there's plenty of food!"
Struggling to swallow the food in her mouth, Hu Jingxin said, "I was already hooked on 'Jiang Li Ji' self-heating hot pot, but it tasted even better sitting in 'Jiang Da Xia' restaurant! Xiao Li, I love you to death!"
Jiang Xiaoli put a few slices of fatty beef in her bowl, saying, "If you like it, eat more!"
For the rest of the time, the only sounds at the dinner table were the sounds of eating; the group didn't have time to talk at all.
Her experience eating in the kitchen today reminded her, and she immediately instructed Shao Ping'an, "From now on, every 'Master Jiang' restaurant should reserve one private room that is not open to the public."
"Okay, I understand."
When the boss came to dinner today, Shao Ping'an also realized this problem, and he wrote down another improvement plan in his notebook.
After dinner, they chatted for a while, and Zhong Yuan accompanied them to continue shopping, while Jiang Xiaoli went to the airport to pick up Yang Guang's family.
Yang Guang looked visibly much more haggard. When he saw Jiang Xiaoli, he forced a smile and said, "Xiaoli, thank you so much for your help."
She waved her hand, "It's no trouble at all. I'm sure you'll do your best to help me if I ever need anything."
Yang Guang nodded. "That's for sure."
On the way, Jiang Xiaoli explained her arrangements to the family of three, "You can stay at home for the night to get familiar with the environment, and I will take you to see the doctor tomorrow morning."
Yang Guang's wife, Chen Ting, said gratefully, "Xiao Li, you've arranged everything so thoughtfully, I really don't know how to thank you."
She smiled and glanced at the rearview mirror. "Aunt Chen, every family may encounter difficulties. Don't think too much about it now. The most important thing is to take Kang Kang to see a doctor."
Chen Ting nodded. "Kang Kang, quickly thank Sister Xiao Li."
Yang Xingkang, who was not very talkative due to his illness, only managed a listless "thank you" at this moment.
Jiang Xiaoli didn't mind his cold attitude. Boys who are already in puberty would not be able to get excited if they suddenly got such an illness.
She chatted with Yang Guang next to her, "Uncle Yang, the army has re-approved your leave, right?"
Yang Guang nodded, "Yes."
He then sighed, "But I've decided to apply for discharge."
Jiang Xiaoli was surprised for a moment, but quickly understood. "Uncle Yang, do you have a new target?"
In the future, Yang Xingkang's treatment will be a long and expensive process. In his previous life, Yang Guang also chose to retire from the army. The high cost of treatment quickly put a heavy burden on the family. However, with his tenacity, Yang Guang gathered a group of retired comrades and founded a security company, which later developed very well.
However, Yang Guang didn't have any specific ideas at the moment. "I just feel that my current situation is not suitable for me to continue staying in the army. We'll talk about the future later."
Jiang Xiaoli thought for a moment and said, "Uncle Yang, please don't mind my bluntness. Kang Kang's future medical expenses are not a small amount. Since you have decided to apply for discharge from the army, you should start planning your future career as soon as possible."
Yang Guang sighed, "I know, but all I've ever done all these years is serve in the army. I really don't know what else I can do?"
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and said, "It's alright. You should take Kang Kang to see a doctor first. If things stabilize for Kang Kang and you still don't know what to do, I can give you some advice."
Yang Guang was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay."
He felt he owed the child too much, and if she wanted him to work for her in the future, he wouldn't refuse.
The car arrived at the apartment complex where Jiang Xiaoli had rented for the Yang family of three, and she led them to the apartment.
Chen Ting couldn't help but say, "Xiao Li, this house is amazing, it must be very expensive, right?"
Her family's money is currently mainly used for their child's medical treatment, and they simply cannot afford such a nice house.
Jiang Xiaoli helped her put her bag on the sofa. "Aunt Chen, please don't be so polite. This is just a small token of my appreciation. Please feel free to stay here. It's very close to the hospital, so it will be convenient whether Kang Kang is hospitalized or stays at home in the future."
Yang Guang looked around the room. He was already prepared to work for Jiang Xiaoli in the future, and now he felt a little less burdened.
He pulled his wife aside and said, "Since Xiaoli has already made arrangements for us, don't worry about it anymore. Go and help Kang Kang pack his things."
Chen Ting listened to her husband and took her son into the house to pack their things.
Yang Guang stayed in the living room and chatted with Jiang Xiaoli. "Xiaoli, you have to teach and run your business all the time, you must be very busy, right?"
She nodded. "It's definitely not easy, but you get used to it. I like the feeling of making money."
Yang Guang sighed, "Yes, in today's society, you still need to have some money on hand."
Jiang Xiaoli took out a thick envelope from her bag. "Uncle Yang, this is a small token of my mother's and my appreciation. Please use it for Kang Kang's medical treatment."
Upon seeing the bulging envelope, Yang Guang quickly refused, saying, "No, no, we brought enough money with us. I can't accept your money."
She glanced towards the bedroom, then slipped the envelope into Yang Guang's hand and whispered, "Uncle Yang, let me tell you the truth. Right now, we're just spending money to delay the progression of Kang Kang's illness. We should use the best medicine we can. Don't be stingy with the money. Money can be earned back, but Kang Kang's health is priceless."
Yang Guang, a strong man over 1.8 meters tall, couldn't help but tear up when he heard this.
He didn't refuse anymore. "Xiao Li, I've got it all in mind. In the future... if you ever need anything, just let me know, and I, Yang Guang, will risk my life to get it done for you!"
