Chapter 109: Boundless Charm
The new dim sum is still being baked or fried. The front desk is very busy and the kitchen is also very busy.
Xu Qingmeng had no intention of taking action. He just wanted to give orders and dispatch instructions, and help them solve any problems. However, who would have thought that the business was so good that he had no choice but to wash his hands and join the battlefield.
The Gu family restaurant was also very busy, so she had no time to help. Xinting got up early and prepared the meat dishes for lunch, and Sister Tang could prepare the vegetarian dishes.
That morning, until lunchtime, everyone in Jinxiu Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Yunyi had already asked someone to go back to the restaurant and bring the food over, asking them to eat first and then work.
Xu Qingmeng checked and found no problem, so he asked everyone to eat and rest first.
The set meals at Gu's restaurant consisted of one meat dish and two vegetable dishes. Mrs. Tang also prepared some soup. They were all very tired and didn't care about any formalities. They thanked Gu Yunyi and started to wolf down their meal.
Xu Qingmeng just sat down, rubbed his shoulders, and said, "I don't know how mother is doing?"
"Don't worry about the restaurant. Xinting told mother everything before she came this morning. There are also Sister Tang and Aunt Li!"
Since Gu Yunyi said it was okay, then it must be okay. He must have made all the arrangements. She didn't ask any more questions and took a bite of the food in the bowl naturally.
Gu Yunyi was setting the table and serving a bowl of soup. The two of them just did this, one taking it and the other passing it on, very skillfully. It was obvious that they did this often.
Several women lowered their heads and looked at each other, with smiles in their eyes, communicating with their eyes. The relationship between this boss and her scholar husband is really good.
Gu Yunyi stared at Xu Qingmeng as she drank a bowl of soup, then watched her eat a small bowl of rice and a lot of dishes. When her chopsticks moved slower and slower, he knew that she couldn't eat anymore.
“I eat too little.”
Xu Qingmeng leaned back in his chair and breathed a sigh of relief: "Not a small amount. My appetite has increased in the past few days."
The culprit is the person in front of him.
Ever since the doctor told her to eat more, this woman has been eating for twelve hours a day, trying every way to make her eat more every day.
"You are not alone now, you have a baby in your belly, how can you say that this is too much?"
"I know, I know." Xu Qingmeng looked helpless and ate some more food before Gu Yunyi was willing to give up.
"Then you take a rest. There aren't many people in front now."
Xu Qingmeng was indeed a little tired, so she responded.
There are several shops behind this shop. The side rooms are used to store various ingredients, and there is a big table in the main room for everyone to eat.
There was also a small room inside the main hall with a soft couch on it. It was originally prepared for the steward, but Xu Qingmeng intended to train Madam Chen, so Madam Huang did not send anyone over.
So the soft couch in this room was vacant, and occasionally someone would come and lie down to rest for a while when they were tired or uncomfortable.
When Xu Qingmeng was teaching before, she would take a nap here when she felt tired or sleepy because of her physical condition.
This morning was like a battle. I was indeed tired. Also, I was feeling sleepy at this point. I rubbed my shoulders and walked into the cabin, intending to take a nap.
Everyone finished eating, wiped their mouths tactfully, and left.
Gu Yunyi cleaned up the leftover plates and bowls so that when He came and went back, he could take the food boxes with him.
"Mr. Gu, why don't I clean up with you?"
Only Zhong Xin seemed not to see anything and even walked closer to Gu Yunyi.
Gu Yunyi took a look. His memory was always good. He had been keeping an eye on that girl who had ill intentions at first glance last time.
"No need, you should go and rest." He replied without even raising his head and continued to pack his things.
Zhong Xin's heart was moved, and her face turned red with shame. She said shyly: "Gu...Mr. Gu, are you concerned about me?"
Gu Yunyi frowned and thought: This guy might be a psycho!
Seeing that the cleanup was almost complete and only Zhong Xin had her own things to do, she said in a cold voice, "Clean it up yourself."
After saying that, without even looking at Zhong Xin, he went into the inner room carrying a cup of warm water.
Zhong Xin was still sad because of Gu Yunyi's words. Then she heard Gu Yunyi's gentle voice from the inner room: "Why aren't you asleep yet? Did I disturb you? Or are you feeling unwell?"
Suddenly, his face turned pale. How could he have forgotten that the boss was still inside?
Zhong Xin packed up her things and didn't know how she left. How could she forget herself for a moment? The boss must have heard what she said just now.
In the inner room, Xu Qingmeng was not as angry as she had imagined. She just pinched her throat and said, "Mr. Gu cares about me so much. How can I fall asleep?"
Gu Yunyi was helpless: "Meng Niang, stop making trouble."
Xu Qingmeng covered her mouth and laughed: "I knew earlier that a handsome man would easily attract the favor of young girls, but I didn't expect that Mr. Gu's charm is so great that even Zhong Xin, who is so young, is fascinated by you."
Gu Yunyi shook his head, and then said seriously: "The last time I came here, I saw that this little girl had some bad intentions. You'd better take advantage of now. Jinxiuxuan has just opened and she has only learned a few basics. Find a reason to send her away as soon as possible, otherwise there will be trouble in the future."
The smile in Xu Qingmeng's eyes faded. She also noticed something. She was always observing Xinting intentionally or unintentionally, and the hostility and jealousy in her eyes were never concealed.
In fact, appropriate jealousy and resentment are good things, which can be transformed into motivation for progress and hard work. However, if you only envy others but don't work hard yourself, that won't work.
"Well, I've noticed something recently. I'll take this opportunity to tell her about it later, and then discuss it with Madam Huang, asking her to quickly recruit someone to fill Zhong Xin's position and avoid having no one in the shop."
In the afternoon, Jinxiuxuan was still very popular. There were even quite a few people who bought some food in the morning just to give it a try and shared it with their family. After eating, they thought the food tasted very good and came back to buy again in the afternoon. So, business was even better in the afternoon.
Anyone who is wealthy has recharged the most ordinary membership.
He and Gu Yunyi also helped here in the afternoon. Together with the people sent by Mrs. Huang and the people in the kitchen, they were very busy. They didn't get a break until it got dark and the door was closed.
On the first day of opening, everyone was exhausted. After closing time, everyone was so tired that they slumped in their chairs, not wanting to move.
Mrs. Huang was very satisfied with today's results and said with a smile, "If business continues to be so good, there will be another red envelope at the end of the month."
When everyone heard that there was money, they immediately became interested and no one mentioned whether they were tired or not.
