Chapter 113 Chapter 113 Mom and Dad Are Possessed
"What are you thanking me for?" Zhao Ruyue had been so busy lately that she had forgotten about that matter.
Lin Lili glanced at her friends to make sure they were not paying attention to this side and no one could hear it.
She then whispered, "Luckily you reminded me last time to ask my boyfriend to manage the hair salon, otherwise I would be in trouble this time!"
Zhao Ruyue also lowered her voice and asked, "What's wrong? Someone wants to kick you out of the hair salon?"
"That's not the case. I just found out that Xiao Liang is a relative of my boyfriend's first love! Tell me, if he were to take care of this, what would become of me?" Lin Lili still felt very angry when she spoke.
Zhao Ruyue asked: "Does your partner know about this?"
"This is what makes me angry the most. He actually knew about it! I was the only one who was kept in the dark. At the beginning, I almost..." Lin Lili stopped talking halfway when she remembered that this was Ning Shichun's third aunt.
But I can't let her know that I didn't think Sun Jiajia and Ning Shichun would be together, and wanted to introduce Xiao Liang to Sun Jiajia.
"What almost happened to you?"
"It's nothing, it's just a small matter not worth mentioning. Anyway, I misjudged him before. He might have secretly sent messages to my boyfriend's first love. After I found out about it, I had a big fight with my boyfriend. Now I am in charge of that hair salon. He asked Xiaoliang to open another one somewhere else."
Lin Lili felt that she had won this struggle.
But Zhao Ruyue felt that it was not the case after hearing this, but she had no evidence: "Your boyfriend even opened a new hair salon for the sake of his subordinates. He is quite good to his brothers."
"He is a very loyal man, otherwise he wouldn't be able to make it in our county. Aunt San, if you encounter any problems that you can't handle in the future, just tell me and I'll ask my partner to help you."
"Okay, thank you in advance." Zhao Ruyue didn't think she would encounter a situation where she would need help from Lin Lili's boyfriend.
Although she is not from the county town, she is considered a local of the surrounding towns. She knows many people in the county town and has many relatives who have developed their careers in the county town.
Maybe his connections are not strong enough to help people escape punishment or reduce their sentences, but at least he can ensure that his store can continue to operate well as long as he does not do anything rash.
Lin Lili continued, "But my boyfriend didn't open a new hair salon just for Xiaoliang, otherwise I would have made a fuss. He invested half of the money in the new salon, and Xiaoliang paid the other half. So he cares about me more. I didn't spend a penny on the previous shop and I was able to manage it directly. This time I win!"
After hearing this, Zhao Ruyue thought that this girl seemed to be quite lovesick.
She didn’t care about the ownership of the hair salon, but only cared about whether the man cared about her more. She even thought that she had won the competition with her love rival...
What did we win? Did you win the opportunity to work for that guy?
Zhao Ruyue didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but this girl was very sincere and loyal.
I just gave her a brief reminder at the beginning, and she brought so many people here today to help patronize my store's business.
It seems like if someone is nice to her, she will double it and return it three times as much.
It's just that Lin Lili is probably too young. She doesn't understand many things and has no one to teach her. She stopped studying early and came out to stumble around on her own. In some aspects, she is really stupid and feels that she is enjoying herself even when she suffers losses.
She and her boyfriend each put in half of the money to open a store together, so she is a partner and owns half of the ownership and profits of the store.
Since she doesn't contribute money and isn't considered a partner, she's still just working for her partner.
With Lin Lili's hairdressing skills and social abilities, it is not an exaggeration to say that she was the one who kept the old shop going.
But she doesn't have the ownership, and if there are any problems in the relationship in the future, it is very likely that she will be making wedding dresses for others.
Considering that Lin Lili brought so many people to support us today.
Zhao Ruyue planned to help her again and gave her a roundabout reminder.
"Where is your boyfriend's new hair salon? The old one seems a bit far from where I am. If the new one is closer, I can bring my family there more often for your sake."
Lin Lili was very happy when she heard that she went to support him just for her sake.
"It's nearby, but you have to turn right, cross a street, and walk another two or three minutes. I originally wanted to rent your house, connect two rooms to open an Internet cafe, and one to open a hair salon. Unfortunately, your family wants to open three stores, and there is no more suitable place nearby, so we can only go over there."
Her boyfriend asked her to help find out if they could be sublet because he saw that these houses were well decorated.
"I originally thought that the remaining room you had was not bad, so I was thinking of renting that one, but Xiaoliang said that if we opened a hair salon next to the Internet cafe, we could take advantage of the Internet cafe's business, and my partner could visit the hair salon from time to time to support the salon, so we decided to rent a house in another place together."
Because Ji Huixuan's resignation procedures had not yet been completed, Zhao Ruyue and Ning Shaoming did not tell anyone about the fact that they were lending her the house to open a photo studio.
Others thought that they had not decided what to do with the room and that was why it had been left empty.
Lin Lili's boyfriend didn't choose this place, which saved them the trouble of finding excuses.
"The new hair salon is indeed closer to us than the old one, but Lili, you have to make sure that your partner is there. Otherwise, we would rather go a little further away and go to the hair salon you manage than patronize someone else."
Lin Lili laughed even more happily after hearing this: "Don't worry, Aunt San, there will definitely be a date for me."
"You are so sure. It seems that you have seen the contract they signed. That's good." In fact, Zhao Ruyue felt that Lin Lili should not have seen it.
"What contract?"
really……
"When they do business together, they must sign a contract to clearly state who gets how much. Of course, some people don't sign a contract and rely entirely on feelings, brotherhood or personal conscience, but it's too easy for problems to arise. If one of them changes his mind and kicks the other out, the one who is kicked out will have no place to cry."
Lin Lili thought about what Zhao Ruyue said and suddenly felt a little anxious.
However, she was not anxious because she was thinking about her own situation and was worried about herself, but because she was worried about her partner.
"No, I have to go back and ask my girlfriend if she has signed a contract with Xiaoliang. The new hair salon is opened in Xiaoliang's name, and the other things are also in Xiaoliang's name."
Xiaoliang is a relative of her boyfriend's first love, and she drove Xiaoliang out of the old store because the old store was doing so well, and she didn't know how the new store would perform.
What if the new store's business is not as good as the old one, and Xiaoliang holds a grudge against her, but sees that her boyfriend treats her well and wants to take revenge on her but can't do anything about it, so he uses underhanded tactics to kick her boyfriend out? What should she do?
Although she felt that considering her boyfriend's status in the county, Xiaoliang might not dare to do so, her boyfriend was not the only one in the county and he was not without rivals.
What if she switched to her boyfriend's rival and took advantage of their power?
Lin Lili had a lot of random thoughts in her mind, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she had to sign the contract. Even though Xiaoliang didn't have any problems now, she still had to be on guard.
"Aunt San, I'm going to go back first. I'll come and play with you when I have time."
Zhao Ruyue looked at Lin Lili's expression and thought that she must have understood her hint, so she smiled and nodded and said, "Okay, I'll treat you to bread next time you come."
Lin Lili waved her hand and left in a hurry.
After this group of people left, Zhao Ruyue moved the chairs back to the restaurant.
Her small shop has seen some business coming in again, but it's not particularly busy.
Zhao Ruyue can handle it alone.
When it was lunch time, Ning Shaoming cooked something simple at the restaurant. After it was done, he sent his daughter over to call her to eat.
There was no one in Zhao Ruyue's store, so she closed the door, hung a sign saying 'The boss is eating next door, give me a shout if you need anything', and followed Ning Shixia to the restaurant for lunch.
When I invited Fan Xiaorong to dinner before, we hosted her at the restaurant. Now the kitchen there is fully equipped with gas, pots, seasonings, and bowls and chopsticks.
The house is almost dry.
In fact, the materials they used to renovate these houses did not contain much formaldehyde. After all, there were few pieces of furniture, and those furniture were either made of iron or solid wood. They could be used once the tiles on the walls and floors were almost dry.
Many stores are like this too. They are put into use immediately after decoration. After all, if they use it one day late, they will lose one day's profit and have to pay one day's rent in vain.
It’s just that their shop was bought by their own family, and they thought that their children would come with them from time to time, so they left it hanging for a while.
And I haven’t found the right person for the restaurant yet.
It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when they had lunch. Ning Shaoming finished selling today's bread at around one o'clock and then went to make lunch.
After lunch, Ning Shaoming would go back to town. After resting at home for about an hour or two, he would continue to prepare things to sell in the evening.
The two children followed him back. Zhao Ruyue thought that today was her first day opening the store, so she planned to stay here during the day and go back at dinner time.
We woke up too quickly in the morning and missed a nap at noon. The two children were very sleepy in the car, but the road was too bumpy and the seats were not comfortable enough, so neither of them could fall asleep.
They had originally planned to go to their room and sleep as soon as they got home, but the weather was still very hot. They were sweating when they got home and didn't want to just climb into bed, so they went to take a shower.
As a result, after taking a shower, I felt refreshed and went out to play again.
Ning Shaoming also took a shower. Since he couldn't sleep for the time being, he went to the shop in front to see if there was any work he could do.
When he arrived at the front store, there was nothing that needed his help. There were only a few old customers watching TV and eating.
These old customers often come to eat at this time, waiting for Ning Shichun to push the TV into the store in the afternoon so that they can eat while watching TV.
Moreover, at this time, the movie channel will be broadcasting movies. After they finish their meal, they can sit in the store for a while and watch a movie.
After watching the movie, it was almost time for dinner, so I could go home and cook, and I planned my time very clearly.
"Uncle San, you're back. Xiaoqiu and Xiaoxia didn't come back with you?" Ning Shichun finished making the last serving of mixed salad and had nothing else to cook, so he served the food to the guests. When he saw Ning Shaoming, he asked, "Have you eaten? Can I make you something to eat?"
"Don't worry. I just came back after having dinner in the county town. Xiaoqiu and Xiaoxia wanted to take a nap, but they were full of energy after taking a bath and couldn't stay at home. They probably went to their grandmother's house to play with their cousins."
"Okay." Ning Shichun put the mixed salad on the guest's table and didn't go into the kitchen.
He walked to the table where Ning Shaoming was sitting and sat down. He rested for a while, enjoying the breeze and watching TV outside. While chatting, he casually asked about the store in the county town: "Is the store in the county town not cleaned up yet?"
"It's ready and we can open it once we recruit some people." Ning Shaoming felt that Ning Shichun had gained a lot of experience during this period.
Sun Jiajia's personality complements his, and she can solve many problems encountered when entertaining guests. Ning Shaoming asked Ning Shichun: "Do you want to go to the store in the county? If you want to go to the county, I will let the new recruits work in the town."
Ning Shichun waved his hand: "I'd better stay in town first." Not only would it be troublesome to go to the county town, but his father-in-law might even cause trouble.
This store in the town is owned by his third uncle, whose family lives in the back. The store is also not far from his own home. He has many acquaintances and relatives in the town, and his mother would come to visit from time to time and bring some vegetables she grew herself.
His future father-in-law didn't dare to cause trouble, but his brother-in-law would come occasionally to get a bite to eat, which was not a big problem.
"Okay then, I won't post job openings in town." It would be better for a shop in the county to hire a cook or waiter who has a place to stay in the county.
As they were talking, a familiar customer came over and said, "Ning Lao San, this is really not genuine!"
Ning Shaoming turned around and realized that this familiar customer was joking, so he also said jokingly: "Why am I not genuine? When have you ever come to eat and my nephew and I not given you enough meat?"
The familiar customer said, "It's not about the sex. We've known each other since we were wearing open-crotch pants. How could you not think of me when you have something good to do?"
"Why, the town water pipe station can't accommodate a big Buddha like you anymore, so you want to come and be my cook?"
"It's not me, it's my brother's youngest son." The familiar customer couldn't help scratching his head when he said this, "Everyone knows everything. You know my family situation very well, so I won't beat around the bush.
As you know, the factory where my brother works has been in recession for a long time. You never know when he might be laid off. Even if he can hold on, it is not possible to inherit a job now.
His eldest son is fine, he can study and will be able to make a future for himself in the future. But his younger son is not good at studying, he couldn't keep several jobs for long and he doesn't know what he will do in the future. My brother is so worried about it that his hair is turning white. So he wants him to learn a skill. ”
Ning Shaoming: "Ding Xiaowu, you are targeting me?"
The old customer laughed and said, "Yes, I have been eyeing you for a long time. I heard that you were going to open a store in the county town, but there was no movement. Fortunately, I came today, otherwise I would not know that you were trying to secretly recruit people in the county town!"
"What do you mean by quietly? I'm doing this openly. I just want to recruit in the county, maybe I can find someone with experience."
"The salary for those with experience must be high. Why don't you recruit a few apprentices? You can even provide three meals a day for the first year without paying any salary!" This was a disguised way of telling Ning Shaoming that if he recruited his nephew, he would be willing to teach him a skill.
He doesn’t need to ask for salary in the first year, as long as he provides three meals a day and doesn’t let his nephew starve to death.
Ning Shaoming smiled and said, "Am I such a stingy person?"
"Of course I know you're not. So what? Do you think my nephew is okay?"
This old customer of Ning Shaoming called Ding Xiaowu was actually named Ding Min. He was the same age as Ning Shaoming, and Ding Xiaowu was just his nickname.
When they were in junior high school, they both had good grades and were quite close.
Unfortunately, the two people’s family situations were different. One continued to study and was assigned to work in a public institution in the town after graduation.
The other one stopped studying after finishing junior high school. The two of them took different paths, had fewer common topics, and naturally became distant from each other.
Later, Ning Shaoming came back to open a shop, and Ding Min often came to eat. As they interacted more and remembered their childhood friendship, their relationship improved and they interacted more often than before.
Ding Min is the oldest son in the family. His brother is much older than him. His brother's youngest son is actually only a few years younger than Ding Min and Ning Shaoming.
When I was a child, I often followed them around. There was no problem with my character. It was just that I was young and lacked stability, so I could not stay in the jobs introduced by my family for long.
I'm in my twenties now, and I heard that I'm getting married soon. I can't keep messing around like that.
"It was the boy who asked me to ask. It seems that he really wants to find a job and do it well. Otherwise, based on his previous behavior of not wanting to do the jobs after working for a while, I would definitely not be able to say this."
When it comes to business, Ning Shaoming stopped joking: "My county's bakeries and restaurants are hiring. What do you want him to learn? It's okay to learn everything, but it will be more difficult."
"My brother and sister-in-law don't expect him to achieve much. I just hope he can open a small shop like your Xiaochun to make a living and support his wife and children."
"Then let him come to the store in town and work with Xiaochun for a while to see if he can stick with it. If he studies hard, it won't take long. I will come back to teach him when I am free. When he has learned it, let him go to the store in the county. If he is not suitable, I will arrange something else."
"It's easy to learn the job at a restaurant, but what about a bakery?" Another person heard them talking and came over to ask, "Are you hiring girls?"
Suddenly someone came up and scared Ning Shaoming and Ding Min. Ning Shaoming turned around and found that the other customers in the store were staring at him with sharp eyes.
Seeing him looking at him, the guests stopped eavesdropping and simply came over to ask.
Many people in the town have been eyeing Ning Shaoming's shop and his craftsmanship, waiting for him to recruit people.
Now they are here and get the news one step faster than others. If they don't seize the opportunity to ask now, they will miss it forever.
Ning Shaoming agreed to Ding Min because he had played with his nephew before and knew him relatively well.
But although he knew other children, some of them were much younger than him. Most of them were the same age as Ning Shichun.
All he knew about them was who the children were, how old they were, and what they looked like.
I have never gotten along with them, rarely dealt with them, and I don't know their personalities, so I don't dare to agree to it directly.
I could only take out a pen and paper to register first, and then find a time for an interview in a few days. However, Ding Min’s nephew Ning Shaoming was recruited directly without an interview, after all, he had already promised him.
Ning Shaoming didn't care whether others would be dissatisfied or not. After all, his business was not a public institution or a big company, and he had to be fair, just and open. It was just a small shop of his own, so he didn't need to be so strict.
Ding Min has a good relationship with him and asked him for help, so of course he has to take care of the younger generation in his friend's family who also has a good relationship with him.
When Zhao Ruyue came back in the evening, Ning Shaoming took out a piece of paper and showed it to her. After telling her what happened today, he sighed, "Can't so many children find jobs now?"
Zhao Ruyue was not surprised. "Our situation is relatively good. There are not many enterprises, so there are not many laid-off workers. In places with many factories, many factories are not doing well and have closed down. Waves of laid-off workers have nowhere to go. The competition for jobs is much greater than here."
She took the paper from Ning Shaoming and saw that it was marked with males and females, and there were many girls. "The teacher of the night school class informed me that classes will start in half a month. My store will also need someone to help out at that time. When do you have an interview, I will go with you. I can also hire a clerk for my store, just a girl."
"Okay, you can decide who is suitable when the time comes," Ning Shaoming counted on his fingers, "The restaurant needs a dishwasher, a waiter and cashier, and a cook. The bakery needs a salesperson and cashier, and two bakery apprentices. These should be enough for now. If business is good and we are too busy, we can find someone who is older. But the dishwasher needs to be someone older. The other positions can be filled by young people."
"I didn't expect that we can now hire people to help with the work." Zhao Ruyue felt the same sense of unreality as when she first opened the store or when she first went to night school. "Pinch me and let me know if I'm dreaming."
Ning Shaoming moved aside and said, "If I don't pinch you, my daughter will say I'm bullying you if she sees it."
Zhao Ruyue: “…………My daughter is not here again.” Forget it, she will pinch it herself.
Then he really pinched my thigh hard. It hurt a lot, but it was real.
At first she thought it would be good enough if the couple could stay in the town and run the small shop well.
Even though it's just a small shop in a small town, as far as she knows, many people who have been running husband-and-wife shops in the town steadily were able to buy houses for their children in the county or city, and also bought good cars.
This shows that even if it is just a small shop in a town, you can gain a lot if you manage it well.
Now they are about to have four stores and have hired employees to work. This recruitment is different from asking Ning Shichun, Ning Danping and Sun Jiajia to do the work.
Ning Shichun and the others are considered to be helping out their own younger generation, and the ones they are recruiting now are real employees.
"We are the bosses now!" Zhao Ruyue whispered with a little excitement.
"Hasn't you been a boss for a long time?" Ning Shaoming smiled, but he understood what Zhao Ruyue meant.
He actually felt a bit like her and just now pinched his thigh secretly without her noticing.
Ning Shixia came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. She has now learned to take a shower by herself.
She walked into the main room, looked at the situation inside, found it unbelievable, rubbed her eyes, and looked carefully again.
Then he quickly turned around and ran to his brother's room: "Brother, Dad and Mom are possessed by evil spirits, go and check them out!"
"What kind of evil spirit has possessed you? No way?" Ning Shiqiu suspected that his sister was suffering from the aftereffects of watching too many Hong Kong zombie movies recently.
"Really, I just saw them grinning foolishly together. If they weren't possessed, could they be stupid?" Ning Shixia felt like the sky was falling when he thought about it.
Ning Shiqiu didn't quite believe it: "I'll go and take a look."
"Go quickly. If they are really stupid, I will call an ambulance immediately." Ning Shixia paused and asked, "Brother, can stupidity be cured?"
