"My family's breakfast is quite famous, have you ever tried it?"
Then he mentioned a name, and Zhou Sui said that she might be ignorant and didn't know about the store.
Just as I was thinking of an excuse to leave, Zhou Meimei came out from the backyard.
She washed her face thoroughly, not only her lipstick but also everything else she had applied. She must have used a lot of effort, as her face was streaked with red and white.
Zhou Meimei came out and walked straight to the counter. She glanced back at the kitchen and found that Li Qiuju was not there.
He looked at Zhou Sui with a questioning gaze and asked silently: Didn't you order any food?
Zhou Sui walked over and said, "They came to see you."
"Looking for me?" She thought Wu Qiang had come to eat.
As they were talking, Wu Qiang called out, "Meimei."
Zhou Meimei had no choice but to walk over, and Wu Qiang actually invited her to sit down, then pushed the plastic bag he was carrying over to her.
"I specially saved these steamed buns and mantou from my house for you."
"You haven't had dinner yet, eat something quickly. It's a little cold, but it tastes delicious."
Looking at the not-so-appetizing steamed buns and mantou in the plastic bag, Zhou Meimei smiled and declined, "Thank you, but I'm not hungry."
After saying that, he pushed the bag back, saying, "I don't think the owner of your store is here. Don't worry, it's fine to eat."
“My family owns a shop, so I know best that these small shop owners are stingy. They won’t let you eat well, and you can’t even finish your work.”
"Look at you, you've lost so much weight since last time."
"Eat quickly, I specially got you a meat bun. If you like it, I'll save some for you and send it over tomorrow."
Zhou Meimei was completely confused. She looked at the stingy boss that Wu Qiang had described sitting in front of the counter.
She was only inside for a short while, so what were those two saying?
"Um, is there something you need from me?" Zhou Meimei interrupted his concern and asked directly.
Wu Qiang glanced at Zhou Meimei, a smile on his face. "After meeting you at your house last time, I think we're quite compatible."
"Didn't I tell the matchmaker that I don't like you?" Zhou Meimei remembered that she had made it clear when the matchmaker came to her door.
So they completely forgot about Wu Qiang after that.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Sui suddenly remembered that Zhou Meimei had complained in the store before about the blind date her family had arranged for her. So this was the person in question.
Judging from their appearances alone, the two are indeed quite mismatched.
Wu Qiang's smile froze for a moment. Of course he knew that the girls he was going on blind dates with were either not as good-looking as Zhou Meimei or not as well-off as her.
He didn't like any of them except Zhou Meimei, so after a while, he finally took the initiative to come to his door.
The Wu family's conditions weren't bad, and he believed that the matchmaker hadn't explained things clearly to Zhou Meimei, otherwise Zhou Meimei wouldn't have refused so decisively.
"Meimei, that's because we haven't spent much time together yet. Once we've spent more time together, you'll understand me better."
“You know, my family owns a breakfast shop and two storefronts, which are now rented out to others. The rent alone is more than three hundred yuan a month.”
The Wu family's shops are all old storefronts, and most of the tenants use them as warehouses, so the prices aren't high.
But Wu Qiang believed that the three hundred yuan was obtained so easily that it was something to be proud of.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Meimei said with a disdainful look, "So what? I got almost five hundred in salary last month."
Wu Qiang could hardly believe his ears. "How much?"
"Five hundred." Seeing his exaggerated expression, Zhou Meimei scoffed. Did she think the Wu family was that rich? Hearing about five hundred made them act like this.
The salary paid by the Zhou family was indeed not low, but she did work diligently in the store and did not miss a single transaction in a month.
She doesn't just work as a cashier; when customers eat, she also helps recommend food.
When she first started selling grapefruit tea, she would recommend it to almost every customer who came in, and about nine out of ten people would buy it.
Her salary wasn't originally this high; the hundred was a bonus from Zhou Sui, which was unexpected.
"You, you~" Wu Qiang looked at Zhou Meimei's pretty face, and his tone suddenly changed as if he had thought of something.
"I knew the owner of this shop wasn't up to any good when he hired these pretty girls."
“Meimei, don’t think this 500 yuan is a lot. After we get married, you can come to my family’s breakfast shop and earn 500 yuan a day.”
Zhou Sui, who was not far away, laughed. She turned her head and asked, "Mr. Wu, when you say you can receive 500 yuan a day, do you mean the store's daily turnover is 500 yuan, or that you can pay Sister Xiaomei 500 yuan in wages?"
"Five hundred yuan a month? Are you crazy?" Wu Qiang reacted strongly. "I can't even earn five hundred yuan a day."
"Since you think that 500 yuan a month is not much, how much salary do you plan to pay Sister Xiaomei in your shop?" Zhou Sui asked again.
"Yes, how much are you planning to charge?" Although Zhou Meimei didn't like Wu Qiang, she suddenly became curious about this question.
Wu Qiang was taken aback at first, then said, "What salary? After we get married, she'll get a share of the shop too."
He felt that there was no need to pay him a salary, and it would be good to have someone to help with the work.
"What do you plan to have Sister Xiaomei do at your family's breakfast shop? Cashier?" After all, that's what she does now.
"I definitely can't accept the money. I'll handle that," Wu Qiang said seriously. Even after they got married, he wouldn't let Zhou Meimei collect his family's money.
