Zhou Jiahong helped out at the shop for a few days. Yu Qiuying thought he was doing a good job, being sweet-talking, quick-witted, and efficient. After thinking about it, she decided not to let him find another job and let him work in their shop.
However, it's not cost-effective for three people to run one breakfast shop, so she plans to open another one.
During dinner that evening, she told Zhou Cailian and Zhou Jiahong about her plans.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Jiahong expressed his agreement and support.
But Zhou Cailian panicked a little, "Mom, if you open another shop, what will happen to this one? I... I don't know how to make fried rice noodles or fried rice..."
Her steamed buns weren't as pretty as her mom's. Mom usually made the fillings and dough for the buns. She'd never cooked fried rice noodles, fried rice vermicelli, or fried rice with eggs. She was only confident in her ability to cook porridge and tea eggs.
“It’s alright, you can learn if you don’t know how. Starting tomorrow, the job of greeting guests will be handed over to Lao Wu. You can come to the kitchen and learn from me. You already know how to cook, so it’s not difficult to learn. For example, fried rice, fried rice noodles, and fried rice vermicelli, as long as you master the heat, you’ll be fine. The seasonings are just those seasonings, it’s very simple,” Yu Qiuying said.
"Can I really do it?" Zhou Cailian wanted to learn, but she was also worried that if she didn't do it well, it would affect the shop's business.
Zhou Jiahong encouraged her, "Big sister, you can definitely do it, I believe in you!"
Zhou Cailian took a deep breath, "Okay!"
For the next two weeks, Zhou Cailian stayed in the kitchen learning from Yu Qiuying how to make steamed bun fillings, stir-fry rice noodles, stir-fry flat rice noodles, and stir-fry rice.
These are really not difficult for people who know how to cook; it's simply a matter of controlling the heat and seasonings.
Although Zhou Cailian wasn't the kind of person who was particularly quick-witted and could learn anything instantly, she was calm, patient, and emotionally stable. If she couldn't do something well after doing it once or twice, she would do it ten times, a hundred times, until she could do it well.
June arrived in the blink of an eye, and the weather was getting hotter and hotter.
After more than a month of training, Zhou Cailian is now fully capable of running her breakfast shop independently.
Yu Qiuying has also found a second shop in the center of the neighborhood. The shop is small, but the rent is very expensive.
However, there was indeed a lot of foot traffic in the center of the street. Yu Qiuying thought that it didn't matter if the shop was small since she was working alone. She had space, and she didn't have to hide or sneak around here. She would prepare breakfast in the evening and put it in her space, so she wouldn't have to get up early the next day to work.
After handing over the breakfast shop to Zhou Cailian, Yu Qiuying began to complete the procedures for the second breakfast shop. She still asked Deng Baifu, Huang Xiasheng's brother-in-law, to handle the shop decoration.
When you get busy, time flies by.
Yu Qiuying's second breakfast shop opened quickly, and that same afternoon, Huang Xiaomei called.
Zhou Caixiang got into university.
But unlike her previous life, this time she actually chose a university in Dongguan Province.
When Zhou Cailian learned that Zhou Caixiang had been admitted to university, she was very happy for her and also very envious. A university student! Her family had produced a university student!
These days, it's a source of great pride for a family to produce a college graduate from a rural area.
However, Zhou Cailian noticed that Yu Qiuying didn't seem very happy.
She held back for two days, but finally couldn't help asking, "Mom, aren't you happy that Caixiang got into university?"
"No, it's fine. She got in because of her own ability." Yu Qiuying wasn't particularly happy, but she wasn't unhappy either.
Seeing her like this, Zhou Cailian didn't know whether she was happy or unhappy.
"Mom, is Rongcheng University far from here?"
"I don't know. You can ask Xiao Qin later to see if he knows." Actually, Yu Qiuying knew that Rongcheng was not far from here, only about two or three hours by train.
In later generations, with the development of transportation, a high-speed train ride takes only half an hour.
