Chapter 288: Dating is for happiness
The new year began with the sound of firecrackers. The nearby streets were inhabited by working class families or those with better conditions.
They can also afford firecrackers, especially as the economy has improved a lot in the past two years.
After the first firecracker sounded, firecrackers rang out one after another in an endless stream, as if there was a competition. Some people bought more, like Chen Jintao and her family. They set off firecrackers at the gates of both courtyards, and they set off several strings of firecrackers.
I thought it wouldn't snow here, but I didn't expect there would be a little snow the next morning.
The snowflakes were the size of rice grains, not very big, but for people like them who came from the south, it was very rare. They had rarely seen snow in Yunnan Province before, except when they went to the snow-capped mountains.
The eldest and second baby were running happily in the yard, and because they were wrapped very thickly, the family members didn’t worry.
After setting off firecrackers, the children’s favorite activity is to find some unlit firecrackers in the remnants of the firecrackers.
Of course, this step is still a little dangerous, especially for younger children like Dabao and Erbao, so Shen Jidong and Huo Dongsheng were watching from the side.
The uncle and the second uncle still feel very new to taking care of children, especially since they are young and used to love playing. They are very understanding towards the two children and have a lot of fun playing with them.
Even though the two children rarely saw them, they quickly became friends with them.
Chen Jintao and Huo Beichuan, the parents, are completely ignored by their two children.
The two of them were also happy to have some free time.
They have already visited almost all the places they should visit in the city. In fact, there is nothing fun to do. Besides, today is the first day of the new year, so there will definitely be a lot of people coming to their house to pay New Year's greetings.
Sure enough, after a while Qian Mingfang, Huang Xiuru and Xiao Hongying came over with their children.
During this period of time, the three of them made a lot of money. Even Huang Xiuru, who did not run her own shop, made some money. Now that she had money on hand, she wanted to take the children to buy some things and come over to visit.
Chen Jintao greeted them warmly, went into the house and took out the snacks prepared at home, and ate snacks while chatting. This day was simply too wonderful.
It's the first day of the Lunar New Year, and no one is talking about work at this critical juncture. After all, everyone has finally got a holiday.
After a while, several apprentices in the hotel also came with gifts. Not to mention the waiters, who were all salaried, every other apprentice was sincerely grateful to Shen Jintao and Huo Nanxi.
If I hadn't met them, where would there be a place for them to learn skills for free and get paid?
Moreover, these people have now been converted to regular employees, and their salaries are much higher than those of waiters, so they treat the aunt and sister-in-law as their masters.
Looking at the New Year gifts they sent, Huo Nanxi still felt a little embarrassed. After all, she was not much older than these people.
Chen Jintao didn't think there was anything wrong with it. On the contrary, she felt better about these young people. Of course, she wasn't greedy for such little things, but she still hoped that the people under her were of good character, and being grateful was one of them.
Before doing anything, Chen Jintao would always think of the worst possible outcomes first, so when she started teaching these people, she was already mentally prepared. Perhaps after they finished their studies, these people would want to go out and start their own business. Of course, if that was the case, Chen Jintao would also have her own methods. Fortunately, these people did not let her down.
She never imagined that these apprentices would never have the idea of starting their own business, because anyone who works in a restaurant knows how attractive the Fireworks Restaurant brand is. And to open such a store requires an investment, and it is not a small amount. Even if they already have the skills, they dare not go out and start their own business, because if they lose money, they cannot afford the consequences.
Not to mention that Shen Jintao had mentioned it before. After working in the hotel for five years, when they have helped the hotel train some new talents, they can go out and work on their own. By that time, they should have accumulated some capital, so it is not impossible for them to go out and work on their own.
Moreover, Chen Jintao also said that if they were willing to hang up the sign of Yanhuo Restaurant, it would be fine. This made the apprentices understand.
Five years is enough time for them to save enough money to open a restaurant, and at the same time they can use the Yanhuo Restaurant's signboard, which means they don't need to advertise themselves. They just need to hang up the signboard, and I believe many people will come to the restaurant.
After seeing off these apprentices, Shen Jintao and Huo Nanxi sat down and chatted with a few women.
Qian Mingfang looked at Huo Nanxi and couldn't help but sigh, "Xiaoxi is amazing. She already has her own apprentice at such a young age. She can also receive gifts from her apprentice during the New Year and other festivals. But have you not thought about your personal problems? You should consider this while making money. You should always choose one that satisfies you."
In fact, Huo Nanxi is not in a hurry at all, even though she is already 20 years old.
But he still blushed a little when talking about this topic. "I'm not in a hurry yet. I just want to run the restaurant well with my sister-in-law."
Chen Jintao smiled and said, "If you meet someone you like, you can give it a try. We can't compromise ourselves while doing business."
Huo Nanxi didn't understand, "But I can earn money to support myself now, so there's no need to find a man to spend my money, right?"
I am not saying this casually. The dividends that Huo Nanxi gets throughout the year are not a small amount. In addition to the dividends, she also has extra salary. There are really few men who earn more than her.
After thinking about it, the women felt that this was indeed the case, but Chen Jintao's thinking was still a little ahead of the times.
"Men can spend money on women, and women can spend money on men, and dating doesn't necessarily mean you have to live together. You can slowly observe and if someone is not suitable, we can just change them. The main thing is to experience the process of dating and enjoy the happiness."
Huo Nanxi was dumbfounded. After all, this was the first time someone had told her such a concept. "This... isn't the purpose of dating someone to get married? If everyone knew that I changed my partner after dating, they would definitely gossip about me."
