Chapter 207 The Canteen Reopens
"Su Xiaoxiao, stop right there!"
Su Xiaoxiao frowned and turned back, frowning when she saw the person coming: "Zhang Dongmei, what are you going to do now?"
She had a gloomy face and looked a little intimidating.
"you……"
Zhang Dongmei, who was originally aggressive, immediately became a little timid when she met her eyes.
After a long while, she straightened her back and said, "Why are you so fierce? I haven't settled the score with you yet. Did you mess with the winning bid? Otherwise, with my brother-in-law's cooking skills, how could he lose to your mother and your sister? How could those two country bun makers compare to a serious chef like my brother-in-law?"
"Did you get some backdoor access from the general manager? Otherwise, why would the general manager be so supportive of you? Don't you know that my brother-in-law quit his stable job at a state-owned restaurant just to win this bid? It's all your fault. I'm not done with you."
Zhang Dongmei became more and more angry as she spoke, and glared at Su Xiaoxiao angrily, as if her eyes would pop out.
Su Xiaoxiao really didn't want to bother with Zhang Dongmei, this psychopath. She rolled her eyes. "It seems like you're blaming the toilet for not being able to poop, and the uneven road for falling down? If you didn't win the bid, it's your own fault. It's none of my business. Why don't you look for the reasons in yourselves? Are you not working hard enough? Not putting in enough effort?"
He suspected day by day that this person and that person had used a backdoor, and he thought the most likely person to have used a backdoor was Zhang Dongmei herself.
Otherwise, given her constant noise, it would be a blessing that her superiors didn't fire her.
He doesn't work properly every day and just stares at her to make his presence felt.
Zhang Dongmei was so angry at his words that her face turned red. Just as she was about to speak, a female voice interrupted her.
"You're not working properly every day, and you're just sitting here thinking about things. If you have this much energy, you should put it into your work instead of sitting on a barren counter like that."
Zhang Yulan looked down upon Zhang Dongmei from the very beginning. She was petty and always had this and that to do, and didn't focus on her work at all.
“You…you guys…”
One on one turned into two on one.
Zhang Dongmei's face turned even redder with anger.
She glared at Zhang Yulan and said sarcastically, "Don't think you can gain anything by fawning over Su Xiaoxiao every day. She's always been stingy. It's useless for you to fawn over her."
She is quite good at telling lies with her eyes open, and I don't know who is the one who is so petty every day.
Zhang Yulan was too lazy to pay attention to her. She took Su Xiaoxiao's arm and said, "Xiaoxiao, let's go to work quickly. If we are late, we will lose our perfect attendance record this month."
When Su Xiaoxiao heard this, she ignored Zhang Dongmei and turned around to follow her.
Not long after the two returned to their counters, the department store officially opened for business.
There were a lot of people in the department store in the morning, and the two of them quickly got busy with their work.
This busy schedule lasted until noon. Su Xiaoxiao was thinking about Liu Cuilan and Xu Zhaodi, so when the time came, she hurried to the cafeteria.
Today is the first day that the cafeteria reopened. As soon as Su Xiaoxiao arrived at the cafeteria, she saw a long queue inside.
The air in the cafeteria was filled with the tempting aroma of food, making people swallow hard.
Su Xiaoxiao stretched her neck to take a look at the window, and found that in addition to Liu Cuilan and Xu Zhaodi, there were also Su Wenbing and Su Fusheng standing at the window helping everyone get food.
Today is the weekend and the two of them are off, so they can serve as free labor.
She was originally worried that business would be bad on the first day, but unexpectedly, almost all the employees of the department store came and lined up in long queues in front of the windows, making it very lively.
Su Xiaoxiao looked around and saw a relatively small group of people standing in line.
Although her family contracted the canteen, she couldn't get any special treatment and still had to follow the rules.
At this time, Zhang Yulan and Qin Shuang also came over with lunch boxes, and followed her in line with a smile.
Liu Cuilan was in charge of their team.
Liu Cuilan has always been efficient at work, and it was Su Xiaoxiao's turn soon.
Seeing Su Xiaoxiao coming over, Liu Cuilan still had a polite and gentle smile on her face and asked her: "Hello, comrade, what dishes would you like?"
Don't tell me, my mother's expression really looks like that. Su Xiaoxiao suppressed the urge to laugh, pointed, and said, "Comrade, please give me some of these two dishes."
Su Xiaoxiao raised her hand and pointed to the bowl of vegetables in front of her. Liu Cuilan immediately picked up a spoon and gave her a big spoonful of each dish, filling her lunch box.
Su Xiaoxiao was shocked. With her mother's way of serving food, how could her family still make money?
This is too generous. Just as she was thinking about it, her eyes unconsciously looked at the window next to her, and then she realized that they didn’t fill the bottles that full when they gave them to others.
It turned out that this was a special treatment for one's own daughter. Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxiao grinned happily at Liu Cuilan and left with the lunch box.
She ordered two dishes in total, one was scrambled eggs with tomatoes and the other was spicy and sour shredded potatoes.
Two very simple dishes, each one was cooked to her taste.
The shredded potatoes are sour and spicy, and the scrambled eggs with tomatoes are rich in flavor.
Several salespeople who were eating nearby also praised the food highly.
"The food the cafeteria chef cooked this time was really delicious, unlike last time. I had diarrhea for several days after eating it."
"That's right. The food in the cafeteria before was not only terrible but also terrible. I would rather eat cold steamed bread with pickles than eat it."
"I really hope this chef can stay in our cafeteria forever. I would be so happy if I could eat such delicious food every day. It's no less delicious than what the chefs at state-owned restaurants make."
The sales assistants around were all busy eating, praising the food as they went along, which shows how popular the cooking skills of my mother and Sister Zhaodi are.
The two of them seemed to have heard the discussions around them, and became more enthusiastic when serving the food.
Suddenly, from a distance, Su Xiaoxiao saw General Manager Yan and Xu Cuilan walking over with lunch boxes.
I didn’t expect that these two leaders would come to the cafeteria to eat in person.
Just as they were thinking about it, the two of them took their lunch boxes and sat down next to Su Xiaoxiao.
Yan Guohua saw her and smiled at her: "Comrade Xiao Su, your mother and your sister are really good at cooking. Let them do their best. As long as nothing unexpected happens, our department store cafeteria will rely on them in the future."
Xu Cuilan also praised it highly: "Indeed, this cooking skill is even better than the chefs in state-owned restaurants. I didn't expect you, Xiao Su, to be so lucky."
The two of them were talking back and forth, full of compliments, which made Su Xiaoxiao straighten her back and feel even more proud.
At this moment, a sour and sarcastic voice suddenly interrupted from the side.
