Zhou Hui was not happy but still couldn't help but said, "It's okay. You are the big boss now. It's normal for you to be busy. It's okay for me to wait a little longer."
Shen Mingzhu didn't respond, but turned around and told Pei Qiuxia to go to the warehouse to pick out some snacks for Zhou Hui to take home.
"Sister Hui, this is your first time at the factory, so I should take you around, but the production schedule is tight these days. I'll take you on a tour when I have some free time."
Zhou Hui took a sip of tea and decided not to continue beating around the bush with Shen Mingzhu.
"Mingzhu, I heard that your restaurant is hiring. I have a fourth sister named Zhou Xue, who worked in a state-owned restaurant for many years. She is experienced and capable."
No one comes to visit without a request. She had long guessed that Zhou Hui must have something to ask for by coming to her house, so she deliberately left him alone for a while.
Shen Mingzhu held the tea with a warm smile on her face, "The restaurant will open a branch next month, and we do need new waiters. Ask her to go directly to the store for an interview, and I will tell Manager Zhu."
Shen Mingzhu agreed readily, but Zhou Hui's face looked unhappy.
"Mingzhu, my fourth sister was a foreman when she worked in a state-owned restaurant. If she works in your restaurant, she should be a foreman at least, if not a manager, right?"
Without waiting for Shen Mingzhu to speak, he continued, "When your Pei Yang opened that pager shop, my Dafa helped him a lot. There must be at least eight customers introduced by Dafa, if not ten, right?"
"Besides, my fourth sister is a capable person. If you don't believe me, you can go ask around. She was selected as an outstanding individual in her previous unit. She is fully qualified to be a foreman in your store."
"That's excellent. Our restaurant needs people like that."
Shen Mingzhu agreed and praised him for a few words, then changed the subject, "But our restaurant is different from other units. We have our own internal promotion mechanism. Whether it is a foreman or a manager, they must be promoted from within."
"I believe that Sister Hui's fourth sister is a capable person. If she is willing to do so, she can start as a waitress. As long as she can demonstrate sufficient ability, it will not be difficult for her to be promoted."
After all, I still have to be a waiter.
Zhou Hui put the teacup on the tea table unhappily, "Forget it, I won't embarrass you or disturb you from working."
After saying this, he pretended to leave.
"Sister Hui, I'll take you there." Shen Mingzhu responded with a smile.
Zhou Hui just wanted to take advantage of the situation, but she didn't expect Shen Mingzhu to be so stubborn and actually wanted to send her away, which made her very angry.
When she went out and met Pei Qiuxia who brought her two gift boxes of snacks, she refused to accept them and walked away angrily, tapping her heels on the ground.
Pei Qiuxia approached Shen Mingzhu with a gossipy look on her face, "What is she doing here?"
"Through the back door."
Shen Mingzhu's words were concise and to the point, and Pei Qiuxia understood them immediately.
Since the food factory was opened, countless neighbors, relatives and friends have tried to get in through the back door, all of them wanting Shen Mingzhu to arrange jobs for them.
It would be fine if they just arranged the work, but people are also very picky, wanting easy work and high pay.
In the words of Shen Mingzhu, if you raise your pillow higher when you sleep at night, you will dream about anything.
…
In the evening, when Zhao Dafa returned home, Zhou Hui told him what had happened.
"...You know my fourth sister. She's tall, pretty, and talented. Originally, my fourth sister looked down on her small restaurant. I thought that our two families were close, so I wanted her to take care of my fourth sister. But she asked me to be a waitress. Who is she looking down on?"
Before Zhao Dafa could speak, Zhao Yun spoke first.
"Didn't you take the initiative to come to Aunt Mingzhu and ask her to find a job for Fourth Aunt? Why does Aunt Mingzhu look down on you?"
"Your fourth aunt was a foreman in a state-owned restaurant, but she asked you to be a waitress. Isn't that looking down on your fourth aunt?"
"Then let Fourth Aunt continue to work as a supervisor in the state-owned restaurant." Zhao Yun said casually.
Zhou Hui choked.
These days, it’s not easy to find a job that suits you.
Although Shen Mingzhu's restaurant is not big, its business is surprisingly good and the wages are high.
More importantly, there were many prominent and wealthy customers who went to the restaurant to eat. She thought that it would be great if her fourth sister could marry one of them and become a rich man.
Otherwise, she wouldn't want to look for Shen Mingzhu.
She had always looked down on Shen Mingzhu because she came from a rural background, and she also felt that Shen Mingzhu's man was not as capable as hers. She was very reluctant to bow to Shen Mingzhu.
In the end, Shen Mingzhu didn't give her any face at all. It would be strange if she wasn't angry.
Zhao Dafa also spoke up at this time, "Don't make things difficult for the Shen family's sister. They have their own rules. If you insist on breaking their rules, then you are not making friends, but making enemies."
Zhao Yun clapped his hands, "Well said, Mr. Zhao!"
"Keep a low profile."

Zhao Dafa was very pleased with his son's flattery and his face was full of smiles.
Taking advantage of Zhao Dafa's good mood, Zhou Hui said, "Dafa, why don't you help Zhou Xue find a job."
Zhao Dafa did not refuse, but did not agree either. He just said he would help keep an eye out.
Zhou Hui was unhappy with Zhao Dafa's perfunctory attitude, but she didn't dare to say anything. She could only pick up dishes and scoop soup to show her courtesy.
She knew very well that if she wanted to keep a man's heart, she had to keep his stomach first.
…
After dinner, Zhou Hui used the excuse of taking her daughter out for a walk and found a public phone to call her fourth sister to inform her.
"Big sister, I'm telling you, you've been with my brother-in-law for so many years, but you still haven't won his heart. We can't count on you for anything at home."
Zhou Hui was already in a bad mood, and after hearing this, she couldn't help but get angry.
"If you have the ability, don't come to me again if you have any problems in the future."
Hearing Zhou Hui's temper, Zhou Xue immediately softened her tone, "I said the wrong thing, big sister, don't be angry, I'm also worried about you, you have to find a way to get rid of the certificate with your brother-in-law and secure your position as Mrs. Zhao."
Zhou Hui was annoyed, "Do you think I don't want to get the certificate? If he refuses, can I still tie him up and go?"
"What about the child? You and your brother-in-law must have a child. With a child, the couple will be one, and your brother-in-law will be willing to contribute money and effort to your family."
"If your brother-in-law doesn't want to have a baby, then you can think of a way. Do it first and ask for permission later. When the baby is born, will your brother-in-law not recognize it?"
"Okay, stay out of my business and just take care of yourself."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
I turned around and saw a young couple passing by with a baby stroller, and my mood became even worse.
She wanted to have a child from the Zhao family, but since she got pregnant unexpectedly two years ago, Zhao Dafa had a sterilization. How could she have a child alone? ...
Shen Mingzhu didn't care about Zhou Hui's thoughts, but she couldn't help but care about Zhao Dafa.
Over the years, Zhao Dafa has helped her a lot in both life and business, and has been very kind to her two children.
For rejecting Zhou Hui, she needs to give an explanation to Zhao Dafa both morally and logically.
After much deliberation, Shen Mingzhu picked a weekend and invited Zhao Zaifa's family of four to a restaurant for a meal in the name of food tasting. (End of this chapter)
