"Okay, thank you, boss." The clerk looked at the money handed over by the boss with surprise, took it with both hands, and thanked him happily.
People who work here usually come from poor families and have no connections, so they live a hard life. They see the customers in the store enjoying delicious food all day long, and they are very greedy. Now that the boss is paying for the food, it is something worth being happy about. They don't care whether the boss is normal or not, and seeing that there are no customers in the store, they go to the back with 50 yuan to find their friends.
The boss looked at the clerk who ran away and smiled without saying anything. The people in the store were all poor children. Although the store was profitable, he owed a lot of foreign debts when he bought the store earlier. In addition, Hao Ge and his friends were very demanding for money in the past few years, so he never paid it back.
Because it was a hot pot restaurant, there was no need for a chef, so he hired some poor kids in their 20s who had no connections and couldn't find a decent job, but had to work to make a living. He could guarantee to pay these employees on time every month. The meals at noon and dinner were not good, but they were definitely filling. He couldn't help much with other things.
The extra income today can help improve the lives of these children.
....
"Qiaoqiao, Xue'er, Yanchuan, I'm sorry, I got into trouble today." Chen Nian apologized to everyone as soon as she got in the car. In the past, her family members said that she was unruly and easy to get into trouble, and she never took it to heart. She was really scared by what happened today. If she was more stable, such a thing would not happen.
"What are you talking about? How can you be blamed for this? They are not good people. It's not because of this, it may be other reasons. Hitting him is just one of the reasons." Nanqiao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around and said to Shen Nian in the back seat. Shen Nian and Ying Xue were really scared today. As the daughter of a rich family, they grew up spoiled all the way. When have they ever met such a person?
Besides, those guys were obviously attracted by his beauty. Even if Shen Nian didn't bump into him, he would have other reasons to cause trouble. A drunkard can't be understood by ordinary people.
"I know you are comforting me. No matter what, today's incident is my fault." Shen Nian still felt a little guilty. If Ying Xue and Nan Qiao got into trouble because of her, how would she face the Nan family?
"Well, since you said so, then I'll punish you to give each of us a gift. I've recently fallen in love with a piece of jewelry and am planning to buy it. I'll leave this matter to you." Ying Xuejian was deep in self-blame. Nanqiao didn't seem to blame her, so he tried to mediate. As for the gift... it was just a casual remark, and it wasn't expensive. Just give her a way to vent.
"Okay, no problem, I'll buy whatever you want!" When Shen Nian heard Ying Xue say this, he hurriedly took the hands of the two and said
"Okay, don't tell your family about what happened today, so they don't worry." Nanqiao looked at Sheng Yanchuan and said to the two people behind the car.
"Yes, I know," Ying Xue and Shen Nian responded at the same time
From the moment he got in the car till now, Sheng Yanchuan just drove without saying a word. The bulging veins of his hands holding the steering wheel could be seen. One could imagine how hard Sheng Yanchuan's hands were exerting.
The atmosphere in the car was very depressing. Based on what Ying Xue and Shen Nian had known about Sheng Yanchuan over the years, they knew that he was not blaming them. He was probably blaming himself for not taking good care of Nanqiao.
In fact, Sheng Yanchuan was shocked and scared. On the other hand, he regretted that he had let Huataihe handle things too easily.
Things at home had not been sorted out recently, and something like this happened again today. Mr. Sheng, who always thought highly of himself, was also at a loss. At the same time, he also realized that now was not as good as the small piece of land in the town before.
At that time, the people of Chaoyang were everywhere in the village and town, and he could always guard the South Bridge, so he didn't worry about anything happening to her.
But now is different. Since Chaoyang wants to get on the right track, many of the previous methods cannot be followed. In addition, he and Nanqiao each have their own things to do, so he cannot stay with Nanqiao all the time.
If something like this happened once, it would be his miscalculation. If it happened a second time, it would be his dereliction of duty. As for whether Nanqiao would be so lucky again, he didn't even dare to think about it.
As for space...it is not a product of this time.
Whether Nanqiao got into trouble, or Nanqiao was treated as an alien for escaping through space, this was not what they wanted to see, so... Sheng Yanchuan was thinking about countermeasures while driving home, in addition to blaming himself...
Arriving at the Nan family's gate, Nanqiao watched Ying Xue and Shen Nian enter before driving home.
After returning home, Nanqiao looked at Xiaoran and Xiaoche's homework, then went to take a shower and clean up.
At night, Nanqiao and Sheng Yanchuan were lying on the bed. "Qiaoqiao, what do you think of Huataihe?"
"Hua Taihe? Very good. By the way, speaking of this, I see that you speak to him quite well, why is he so respectful to you?" Nanqiao thought about how he looked when he saw Sheng Yanchuan at night, and asked the question in his mind. In fact, what Nanqiao wanted to say was that Hua Taihe seemed to have more than just respect for him, and it seemed more like a belief, an unattainable existence.
"He is just that kind of person, he is always very strict. I have talked to him before, but he can't change... He gets angry if I talk too much."
"Then how did you two know each other? He seems a little different from the others," Nanqiao asked curiously. Huataihe's way of doing things seemed a little different from the others in Chaoyang.
Sheng Yanchuan was interrupted by Nanqiao and instantly forgot what he was going to say when he mentioned Hua Taihe. He just followed Nanqiao's lead and started talking.
"He's from the village next to ours, and is about the same age as you. His father was a soldier who died on the battlefield a few years ago. Although he is a relative of a martyr, he is an orphan and a widow with no one to rely on. Those hooligans in the village don't dare to do that during the day, but sometimes they will sneak into his house in the middle of the night after drinking too much. Hua Taihe learned some martial arts from his father when he was a child, and he is also strong, so even if he is not very old, it is not a problem for him to use a stick to deal with those drunkards. But people make mistakes and horses stumble, and Hua Taihe can't always watch over his mother. Once, when he was leaving school, the road was blocked by heavy rain, and those hooligans took advantage of the opportunity. When Hua Taihe was going home, he ran into those hooligans. He saved his mother, but accidentally beat two of them to death."
Sheng Yanchuan paused for a moment before continuing, "His mother's health was not very good and she couldn't go to work, but with the allowance sent back by his father, they lived a pretty good life. But this time, the burden fell on him. I met him on that rainy night. At that time, I had just arrived in Chaoyang. He bought a lot of food and meat from me. Thinking that the two villages were not far away, we chatted and got along very well, so I helped him send them back. Who knew that he would encounter such a thing? Later, because Hua Taihe was a minor and the action was taken on the premise of protecting his mother, and because of his father's meritorious service, he was not severely punished. He was only sent to the farm for reform for a year. But when the year was up, when Hua Taihe returned to the village, everything had changed."
"After he got into trouble, his mother spent almost all of his father's pension on helping him get connections. His mother took on the burden of the family. In addition to her own living expenses, she also wanted to send some to Hua Taihe. As time went by, she became ill from overwork. Add to that the rumors in the village, and Hua Taihe had been there for less than half a year before his mother passed away."
