Luo Jiaojiao's eyes lit up instantly when she saw the dazzling array of dishes on the blackboard. Although this remote place seemed plain and simple compared to the bustling city where she used to live, the dishes displayed in the state-owned restaurant were far beyond her expectations.
Even Leng Mohan, a frequent visitor to this restaurant who would come here to enjoy a meal every time after a mission, couldn't help but feel a little surprised at this moment. He remembered that although the dishes here were always good, this was the first time he had seen double the variety.
The clerk smiled familiarly when he saw Leng Mohan. This customer was no stranger to their store, as they saw him once or twice every month.
The waiter noticed that he was staring intently at the dishes listed on the blackboard, so he introduced enthusiastically: "You may have noticed that our store recently got a new manager. The new manager is very far-sighted and plans to expand the variety and quantity of our ingredients. This means that our menu will be more rich and varied."
"He even specially hired a chef with superb cooking skills from the county town to teach our chefs how to improve their cooking skills. So, you can expect that in the future our dishes will not only increase in quantity, but also improve in quality, and the taste will surely satisfy you even more."
"It's no longer the monotonous three or four dishes. It's a good thing you came early. Once it's time for dinner, it will be crowded here, and you may have to wait patiently for a while." The clerk said to them with a smile on his face.
Their wages are closely linked to the business situation here. The more customers there are, the more income there is, and their share of the profits will also rise. They enjoy it and are not afraid of hard work. Instead, they look forward to more customers coming.
"Really? Then it seems that everyone is blessed today." Leng Mohan responded with a smile and a nod.
Leng Mohan's cooking skills are actually better than the chefs here, but he seldom cooks, mainly because he doesn't want to move. It would be better for him to rest and train more with that time.
But looking at the dishes on the blackboard with shining eyes, he knew that the kitchen would be the place he had to stay when he was not on a mission in the army.
"Give me one portion of each of these meat dishes." Leng Mohan turned to the waiter and said firmly. Then he added, "As for the green vegetables, just cabbage, tofu and braised eggplant will do."
"Okay, this time it's finally a girl who comes with you. You always came with your comrades before. This must be your girlfriend, she's so beautiful." There was a hint of teasing in the clerk's eyes, recalling that Leng Mohan always came with his comrades before. The clerk was surprised to hear that he actually ordered all the meat dishes, and there were five meat dishes in total.
Leng Mohan glanced at Luo Jiaojiao calmly, and a barely perceptible arc appeared at the corner of his mouth, "She is not my match."
Luo Jiaojiao's heart trembled, and she looked at Leng Mohan in confusion. Didn't he say that as long as she was obedient, he would treat her well? This sudden denial made her feel confused.
When the clerk heard this, he scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Oh, it turned out to be a misunderstanding. Sorry, sorry. So, she is your sister?"
"She's not my sister, she's my wife, an officially married wife." Leng Mohan corrected the clerk calmly with a firm look in his eyes.
