"Order."
At Feng Haidong's shop, upon hearing someone call out to place an order, Feng Qifan immediately grabbed the order slip and ran over.
"Hello, brothers and sisters, welcome to our home for a meal. Our specialties are crayfish and grilled fish. Would you like to order crayfish or grilled fish? Don't worry, everything is fresh. You can choose from the fish tank over there, and they can all be weighed on the spot to ensure that everything is exactly the right weight."
Customers calling out to order saw Feng Qifan, a young boy, greeting them.
Moreover, Feng Qifan spoke these words very smoothly.
In addition, although Feng Qifan is not old, he has been studying violin for many years, so he has a very upright and handsome appearance.
This immediately aroused the curiosity of the customers who were ordering.
The girls at the table, in particular, couldn't help but laugh after looking Feng Qifan up and down.
"Handsome young man, you're very handsome."
"Handsome young man, can you help us choose one?"
"Young man, is this shop yours? Otherwise, at your age, you shouldn't be able to work, right?"
Feng Qifan wasn't intimidated at all when the girls kept calling him "handsome young man."
"Thank you for the compliment, sister. This shop is a joint venture between my dad and someone else. I didn't have to go to school during the May Day holiday, so I came to help out at the shop to experience some work and have a real Labor Day."
Hearing Feng Qifan's words, this time it wasn't just the girls who felt even more favorably disposed towards him.
Even the men at his desk and the next desk looked at him with new respect.
A middle-aged man at the next table said, "Not bad. You don't look very old, but you know a lot. And judging from your posture and demeanor, you seem like someone who plays the piano. Have you studied piano?"
Feng Qifan looked at the middle-aged man at the next table and replied with a smile, "Uncle, I haven't studied piano, but I've been learning violin."
Upon hearing this answer, the woman sitting at the same table as the middle-aged man immediately said, "I knew it! You have a different kind of demeanor. Such an upright posture must be the result of practicing the violin. What a good child! You know how to help your family at such a young age. That's wonderful."
Many people around Feng Qifan gave him a thumbs up and praised him.
Then, the young people at the table who were ordering asked with a smile, "Young man, if you help your dad with chores, will your dad pay you a salary?"
The boy sitting next to me said, "Yeah, little brother, Labor Day is a statutory holiday, you should get triple pay."
Feng Qifan said, "I'm not old enough to work yet, so I can't take the money."
These words made the surrounding guests burst into laughter.
Feng Qifan instantly filled the store with joy.
They even put together a plan for Feng Qifan, telling him that he must find a way to ask his father for more wages.
Seeing her younger brother's appearance, Yue Rujuan leaned over to Yu Xiangyang and said with a grin, "Brother, look at us, aren't we all as good as Fanfan? You said you wanted to experience working, but you didn't even dare to talk to people. Look at Fanfan, he's already getting along well with the customers."
Yu Xiangyang said helplessly, "There's nothing I can do. I thought it would be easy to take care of guests."
Yue Rujuan said, "Yes, I also thought it would be easy, but being stared at by people is really uncomfortable. At first, I really couldn't open my mouth."
Seeing Feng Qifan mingling with the guests, Yu Xiangyang quickly made up his mind: "No, Fanfan works so hard, we have to work hard too, we can't lose to Fanfan."
Just then, a group of customers raised their hands and called out, "Waiter!"
Yu Xiangyang immediately agreed and ran over: "Okay, coming, sir, is there anything you need?"
Seeing that Yu Xiangyang had already gone to greet the guests, Yue Rujuan encouraged herself: "Yue Rujuan, you can definitely do it too, keep going!"
Liu Fenzhen and Ma Bangcheng observed the behavior of the three children.
When the couple met, Ma Bangcheng said to Liu Fenzhen, "Fanfan is more outgoing."
Liu Fenzhen said, "Fanfan is really great. I feel that Haidong has done a very good job educating Fanfan. She is very generous and outgoing. Although she is not very old, she can chat with others."
Ma Bangcheng thought for a moment and said, "I heard that Fanfan has been learning violin and has performed on stage many times. Perhaps because she has performed on stage so many times, Fanfan is more relaxed and comfortable."
Liu Fenzhen nodded: "That should be true, after all, you can't be nervous when you're on stage."
Ma Bangcheng said, "Maybe Fanfan will surpass Haidong in the future."
Liu Fenzhen said with great certainty, "That's for sure. It doesn't matter whose son he is. Haidong is so outstanding, Wanling is also very outstanding, and Fanfan will definitely be no less outstanding."
Ma Bangcheng said with a smile, "I think Fanfan is like this because Feng Haidong is setting a good example for him, making him understand that you have to work hard in everything you do. That's why Fanfan is working so hard now. If he can keep it up, Fanfan will definitely be great in the future."
Liu Fenzhen said, "Now that you mention it, I feel sorry for Fanfan. He only sees his father a few times a month."
Ma Bangcheng said, "What's the big deal? It's okay for a boy to not see his father."
Liu Fenzhen said, "How could nothing be wrong? The child definitely wants his parents' company."
Ma Bangcheng said earnestly, "But nowadays, everyone needs to work hard to earn money, unlike in the past. Haidong is working so hard now because he hopes to create better conditions for his children. So I think Fanfan is so sensible, he must be able to understand his father."
Liu Fenzhen was still somewhat saddened: "The child understands, but I still feel heartbroken that the child is so well-behaved."
Ma Bangcheng said, "Alright, once Haidong makes money, we'll buy a house in the provincial capital and bring Wanling and the children over. Then the whole family can be reunited."
Liu Fenzhen nodded: "That's right, so we should also work hard to help Haidong make more money."
Ma Bangcheng laughed and said, "Hahaha, can't you see? Hai Dong is capable enough to do things without us. In fact, he's helping us now."
Liu Fenzhen said, "How could I not see it? Haidong helped our whole family."
The older cousin and her husband remembered Feng Haidong's kindness.
Feng Qifan led the older brothers and sisters who were ordering to the fish tank to let them choose fish and crayfish, and he also introduced the different kinds of fish to them.
The young people found it very interesting.
After selecting their fish and crayfish and seeing them weighed in person, the young man returned to his table.
He then praised Feng Qifan to his companions again.
That evening, at Feng Haidong's restaurant in the provincial capital, Feng Haidong was surprised to find that his son was also growing up while greeting customers.
