Chapter Seventy: The Troubles of Happiness



Xu Kang and Xu Le were responsible for handing out takeout boxes; Xu An and Zhou Qi were responsible for filling the boxes with food; Xu Heping and Liang Dani were responsible for covering the takeout boxes and labeling them; Xu Lili was responsible for packing the takeout boxes into plastic bags and neatly stacking them in a foam box.

All the procedures were carried out in an orderly manner, just like a small assembly line.

Looking at the several large iron basins filled to the brim on the large steel table in the middle of the group, they made a rough estimate in their minds.

These dishes in just a few large iron basins could feed at least one or two hundred people.

Looking down, there were five or six styrofoam boxes that had already been packed up and placed at the bottom of the side wall of the kitchen.

A styrofoam box can hold thirty portions, so six would be 180 yuan. There are four empty boxes next to it. Lili has another styrofoam box in her hand and is filling it with the packed meals.

Wow, there are three or four hundred boxed meals alone!

Seeing this, Aunt Hong's anxiety, which had been building all day, finally subsided. It seemed that Anzi wasn't just making things up; the shop was really doing well, and people were indeed consuming over a hundred pounds of fruits and vegetables a day.

Seeing everyone busy at work, Aunt Hong asked directly, "Anzi, do you need any help?"

Hearing the voice, Xu An looked up and saw that the person who asked the question was Aunt Hong. He looked surprised and asked, "Aunt Hong, what brings you to the shop?"

"I came to check on your business." Aunt Hong stated her purpose directly, pointing to the pile of boxed meals on the table that had already been served but not yet bagged, and asked, "Do you need my help?"

With less than half an hour left until 11 o'clock, and more than a hundred boxed meals still not packed, Xu An naturally wouldn't refuse Aunt Hong's kindness and nodded in thanks.

Aunt Hong walked over to Xu Lili, found an empty spot, picked up an empty styrofoam box, and started packing lunchboxes and placing them inside.

With Aunt Hong's help, the packing speed visibly increased.

The packing work here is not yet finished, but the workers over there have already finished work and are going to the store to eat one after another.

Zhou Qi, who was in charge of serving the food, stopped his work in the kitchen, went outside to the hot food station, picked up a spoon, and served the food to the workers.

However, when Zhou Qi was serving the food, he seemed a bit out of his depth, the spoon wobbling from side to side, unlike his usual steady movements.

Aunt Hong was busy in the kitchen while keeping an eye on the customers dining outside.

In no time, the first and second floors were full. Some workers got their food and squatted down to eat in the shade of a tree outside the store.

Even so, many people were still holding plates and queuing up to get their food.

After packing up the last boxed meal, Aunt Hong's heart was completely tipped towards Xu's Fast Food Restaurant.

“Anzi, let’s discuss the cooperation in detail after you get back to the village tonight.”
