Chapter 145 It’s time to get paid!



June 1st is here in a blink of an eye. Today is Children's Day and also payday.

Li Shuping prepared the information the night before, put it in an envelope, and gave it to Qin Ye and Qin Rong after breakfast in the morning.

"What is this?" Qin Rong looked at the envelope but didn't take it.

Li Shuping: "Today is the first of the month, it's time to pay salaries. Even though I'm a private company, I won't suppress salaries."

Qin Rong and Qin Ye rubbed their clothes in sync, then stretched out their hands to take the envelope with their names on it.

This was the first time for them to receive proper salary since they were little.

Li Shuping: "The store just opened last month and it was quite busy. I didn't arrange any rest for you, so I counted you as working overtime and paid you a few extra days' salary."

"You helped when the store was still under renovation, and you followed me around to buy things. I calculated one month's salary for you, and I calculated twenty days' salary for Arong."

"Starting this month, you two will take turns to have one day off a week. It's not a rest day, so you can take any day you want."

Qin Ye squeezed the money in his hand tightly and said, "Thank you, Aunt Li."

"Thank you, Sister Li." Qin Rong also thanked excitedly.

Li Shuping patted her head and said, "Okay, stop talking about this and get to work."

There is a school nearby. After the school's Children's Day performance ended in the morning, the dumpling shop also had a peak in business at noon.

Many parents brought their children who had just attended the Children's Day performance to the restaurant to eat dumplings.

Most of the children were wearing new clothes, and they all had the same red dot between their eyebrows, two thick eyebrows, two red cheeks, and blood-red mouths.

Girls who love beauty don't want to wipe off the lipstick on their lips, so they open their mouths wide and eat with their teeth bared.

Li Shuping felt it was strange and cute.

Seeing these loving children, she couldn't help but think of Xiaoyu. When Xiaoyu was young, it seemed that she had never participated in the Children's Day performance.

Logically speaking, her daughter Yu is good-looking and of decent height. After so many years of studying, it shouldn't be that I haven't been chosen by the teacher to perform on Children's Day.

No, Yu was chosen.

Li Shuping remembered that it was when Xiaoyu was in the first grade.

That day, Xiaoyu returned home happily and said that the teacher had chosen her to perform on Children's Day. She needed to buy a uniform white shirt and white shoes for three yuan and bring them to the teacher at school the next day.

She remembered that day when Lin Yongnian said he would send 20 yuan to his mother in his hometown, she said, "Didn't you send 20 yuan just last month?"

Just because of this sentence, Lin Yongnian was touched and he slapped her in the face.

He even pointed at her nose and scolded: "I have money, I can send it to my parents whenever I want, stop nagging me."

She felt wronged and angry at the time, so when Xiaoyu talked to her, she scolded Xiaoyu.

What's the point of participating in this kind of paid activity?

She also asked Xiaoyu to tell the teacher that she would not participate in the Children's Day activities, and would not participate in such activities in the future.

Thinking of this, Li Shuping felt extremely guilty.

At that time, she was completely venting her anger at Lin Yongnian on Coco Yu.

If she hadn't seen these children, she would never have thought of this matter at all.

It turns out that people will beautify their own memories and selectively forget memories that are not beneficial to them.

In the afternoon, Li Shuping rode her tricycle to a state-owned store and bought a pair of pink plexiglass hairpins with gold powder, and also bought Yu's favorite old-fashioned honey cake.

Although Xiaoyu is already grown up, it is too late to celebrate Children's Day for her now, but she still wants to make up for it as much as possible.

Tomorrow is a day off, and everyone in Yard 23 has finished their early shifts.

"Who among you will deliver this fifty yuan to Li Shuping, so that she won't come here again tomorrow morning and make a fool of herself in the courtyard."

Lin Yongnian put five big unity notes on the table. He didn't want to see that vicious woman Li Shuping again.

We agreed last month that I would pay her 50 yuan every month starting this month.

The remaining people in the room looked at each other, none of them really wanted to take on this task.

Seeing that they didn't move for a long time, Lin Yongnian said, "Why don't you want to go? After all, in our family now, who wants to see her face like that?"

Lin Yongnian looked back and forth between his son and daughter-in-law, "Boss, why don't you go? It's still early, and there shouldn't be many people in her store. You can send it off earlier and come back earlier for dinner."

"Okay." Since his father had spoken, Lin Guodong had no choice but to pick up the money on the table.

Lin Guodong walked quickly and arrived at the dumpling shop in less than half an hour.

When he walked outside the dumpling shop and saw such a large storefront, he was stunned.

He thought her mother opened a small shop like a shoe repair shop or a tailor shop, but he didn't expect this shop to be quite big.

It was only six o'clock, but the store was already full of people and very lively.

Wearing an apron, Lin 께玉놌 rode a bicycle with his mother, a young boy, and was busy shuttling around the store.

He had listened to other people's advice before and thought that the business of his dumpling shop would not be good, but he didn't expect that the business was so good.

On the contrary, it is said that the dumpling shop is not doing well, and now the dumpling stall is not open.

"Lin 께yu."

He stood outside the door and called out to Lin Yuyu who had finished serving the dishes and went to take the order.

Lin Xiaoyu paused, turned around and saw her older brother Lin Guodong, her face fell.

Seeing that she didn't move, Lin Guodong made another move towards her.

Lin Xiaoyu then went out.

"what?"

Lin Guodong frowned, "What else are you doing? Don't you even know how to call me brother now?"

Lin Xiaoyu rolled her eyes lightly. She didn't want her elder brother, who wanted her, a minor, to go to the hospital to take care of the patient just to save money for himself.

"This is the fifty yuan that Dad gave back to Li Shuping." Lin Guodong handed over the money.

Lin Xiaoyu took the money and snorted, "You said I can't even call you brother, but you can't even call me mom."

Lam Kwok-tung: "That was because she didn't let me yell, and I yelled and she slapped me."

"You deserve it."

After Lin Xiaoyu finished speaking, she turned and ran into the store.

Lin Guodong raised his head, looked at Lin Xiaoyu's back and cursed: "This damn girl."

Lin Guodong stood at the door of the store for a while, then turned and left.

After finishing her work in the evening, Lin Xiaoyu gave the money to Li Shuping, and she accepted it without saying anything.

Lin Xiaoyu was packing her clothes in the house so that she could go to the bathhouse with her mother to take a bath.

"Xiaoyu, can mommy come in?" Li Shuping knocked on the door.

"Mom, come in."

Li Shuping walked in holding a honey cake hairpin.

Lin Xiaoyu's nose twitched, "Mom, did you buy the honey cake?"

Li Shuping smiled and took out the honey egg hidden behind her back, "I really can't hide it from your dog nose."

"Did you buy it especially for me?" Lin Xiaoyu excitedly took the cake wrapped in oil paper.

"And this." Li Shuping spread out her hands, revealing the hairpin in her heart.

"What a beautiful hairpin, is it for me too? Why?" Lin Xiaoyu took the hairpin and didn't understand why her mother bought her these things today.

"Because today is Children's Day, this is a Children's Day gift. I'm sorry that your mother didn't give you a happy Children's Day when you were a child." Li Shuping stretched out her hand and smoothed the hair around her ears.

Lin Xiaoyu's mouth pursed and she threw herself into her mother's arms.

"It's okay, I'm very happy now. Thank you, Mom. I feel so happy to be your daughter."

Li Shuping held her daughter in her arms and patted her back gently.

Children are easy to satisfy. If you treat them well, they will forget all the bad things that happened before.

But with a child, you have always been good to him, but he always feels that you are not good enough to him.

께玉 is the former.
