"Okay, this is a good opportunity to let your mother have a good rest for a few months." The old woman has worked hard with him for most of her life and she deserves a good rest.
"Dad, you know we're not short of money right now, so you don't need to work so hard. You should take this time to rest. Now Mom is sick, and you're taking care of her at home? It's reasonable and no one will gossip about it. It also shows from the side that Mom is seriously ill, and that Li Chunyan can't move in even if she wants to."
Jiang He was a bit embarrassed. Instead of lying at home doing nothing, Jiang He preferred to go out and work. "Shushu, Dad knows you are filial, but Dad is used to doing farm work. If I don't work for a day, I feel uncomfortable all over."
Jiang Shushu: “…” I was born to be a hard worker. When I am 60 years old, I will never stand if I can sit, and I will never sit if I can lie down.
"Then you don't have to do so much. Just work for a morning. You are getting older now, so the workload should be reduced appropriately. Just do two or three centimeters and consider it as exercise. We are not short of money, so there is no need to overdraw your health to work. By then, Mom will be a healthy old lady, but you will be too tired and in poor health, and you will have to use a wheelchair. What if you have to think about it?" Jiang Shushu repeated the same old words.
Jiang He thought about himself sitting in a wheelchair, being pushed wherever he went. The picture was so beautiful that he was too scared to think about it further.
As for a wheelchair, anyone can sit in it if they want, but I, Jiang He, don’t want to sit in it at all.
In the past, Jiang Shushu asked Jiang He to do less work, but Jiang He didn't take it to heart. Even though Jiang Shushu clearly stipulated that he could only do so many work points a day, Jiang He still secretly did an extra one or two centimeters of work from time to time.
"Dad, I understand. You only need to work half a day during this period." In the future, you should work less and just produce enough food for the two of us old people.
"Then you should pay more attention to Li Chunyan at home and don't let her rely on you. I went to see her yesterday, and she said she would come to see mom when she felt better. If there is anything, call me in the city."
Time passed quickly and it was the end of May. The educated youth from various brigades were like birds in a cage, rushing to the city just to improve their food.
The educated youth thought the same as Jiang Shushu. After learning that the State-owned Restaurant North was closing, many people felt it was a pity, especially the educated youth who did not have their last meal at the State-owned Restaurant North last month.
Educated youths: Although the food at State-owned Restaurant East is delicious, the food at State-owned Restaurant North is also delicious. We can still eat at State-owned Restaurant East, but we can never eat at State-owned Restaurant North again. It’s such a pity. If we had known that State-owned Restaurant North was closing, we would have gone there to have one last meal.
Zhang Meihua was horrified and panicked. In her previous life, it was the State-Owned Restaurant East that closed, so why had it become the State-Owned Restaurant North in this life? Why had everything about Jiang Shushu changed? Had she been wrong? Had Jiang Shushu been reborn, just like her? Jiang Shushu was terrifying. She had actually been tricked by her.
Originally, Zhang Meihua was very confident that Jiang Shushu was not reincarnated, but now Zhang Meihua had to doubt it.
Zhang Meihua followed many educated youth to the state-owned restaurant. After ordering the meal, Zhang Meihua ate silently while secretly observing you, Jiang Shushu.
But after watching for a long time, he found nothing. Was Zhang Meihua deliberately eating very slowly? She waited until all the educated youth had left before putting down her bowl and chopsticks.
Zhang Meihua put down her bowl and chopsticks but did not leave. Instead, she sat quietly.
Jiang Shushu knew that Zhang Meihua had been secretly observing him while eating, and that she looked at all the employees of the State-owned Restaurant East with strange eyes. He immediately guessed that Zhang Meihua's previous life must have been the one that closed down the State-owned Restaurant East. Guessing that Zhang Meihua must have been upset because of the State-owned Restaurant East, she began to wonder if she had been reborn.
Jiang Shushu sighed inwardly. He had finally managed to dispel Zhang Meihua's belief that she was reborn, only to have her belief overturned again because of the incident with the state-owned restaurant owner. With so many jobs to do, how could he just happen to end up with something so different from Zhang Meihua's previous life? He had to find a way to prevent Zhang Meihua from thinking she was also reborn.
Jiang Shushu walked forward with a smile, "Meihua, are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I'm just too full. I want to sit for a while before leaving. Is that okay?"
"Of course! There's no one here right now, you can sit as long as you want."
"Shushu, we haven't seen each other for a long time. There's no one around now. Can we sit down and chat for a while?" It's just a good opportunity to test whether Jiang Shushu is really reborn?
Jiang Shushu pretended to glance at the lobby and said, "There's no one here now, we can chat for a while." Jiang Shushu sat next to Zhang Meihua.
"Shushu, why is the State-owned Restaurant North closed?" Zhang Meihua's eyes never left Jiang Shushu's face when she spoke.
Jiang Shushu said calmly, "It's due to policy. There are too many state-owned restaurants in Q City, so we closed two of them."
"Why is it State-Owned Hotel North?"
"This was decided by the leadership." Jiang Shushu deliberately leaned closer to Zhang Meihua and said in a low voice, "I heard from our manager that they originally planned to close down the least busy state-owned restaurant, Dong, but because we've performed so well over the past few months, the leadership changed their minds and kept us."
Zhang Meihua was puzzled. "Why are you guys behaving so well?"
"We were asked to close by our management because of the lack of customers. But everyone has feelings for the owner of the Guoguo Hotel and is reluctant to let it go. So we thought, why not work hard to improve the business so that we can persuade the management to stay?"
But after trying for a while, there was no effect. Later, I went home and saw that my parents had gone to a wedding, so I talked to my colleagues about it. Everyone thought we could develop the idea into blind dates. It just so happened that my colleagues, their friends, and their families all knew matchmakers, so we set up a blind date, and business suddenly improved. After the blind date, marriage was definitely the inevitable outcome. Many people held their wedding banquets at the state-owned restaurant Dongman, and business was even better... Just like that, the leader saw our strengths, and we stayed. At that time, I almost thought my newly found job was going to be ruined. Fortunately, all of our employees worked hard enough, otherwise it would have been in danger. "Even if we can't completely dispel Zhang Meihua's thoughts, we can't let her be sure that she is reborn, so that we can make it possible to operate later.
Zhang Meihua looked at Jiang Shushu's frank attitude, and her mind became even more confused. Was it a coincidence? Was I overthinking it just now? But this was too much of a coincidence? Ah, was Jiang Shushu really reborn?
When Zhang Meihua saw Zhang Xinyi walking in, her eyes suddenly lit up and she immediately thought of a plan. Zhang Meihua pointed at Zhang Xinyi who walked in and said, "Shushu, look at her." After Zhang Meihua said that, she stared at Jiang Shushu, not missing a single detail of her expression or eyes.
