"Mom, why don't we go out to eat?!" Guo Haoxi leaned over and whispered in Deng Qingling's ear.
Deng Qingling smiled, took the menu from him, and said softly, "One braised fish, one stir-fried bamboo shoots with mushrooms, one steamed chicken feet with black bean sauce, one..."
Seeing that Deng Qingling wanted to order more, Guo Haoxi quickly tugged at her clothes and said anxiously, "Mom, that's enough. Three dishes are enough for us. No need to order more."
Deng Qingling: "How can this little bit of food be enough?"
Then, he turned his head and said to the waitress behind him, "Another plate of roast chicken and a loofah and lean pork soup."
"Okay, boss." The waitress quickly wrote down the name of the dish, bowed slightly to Deng Qingling, and left.
Guo Haoxi didn't know that the boss the waiter was referring to was this boss and not that boss.
Not long after, the dishes came up one after another.
When Guo Haoxi saw the delicious food on the table, he felt even hungrier and swallowed involuntarily.
When Deng Qingling saw her youngest son like this, she smiled and shook her head. He was indeed still a child.
"You must be hungry. Eat quickly." Deng Qingling picked up a chicken foot and put it in his bowl.
"Thank you, Mom." Guo Haoxi picked up the roasted chicken feet that were golden in color and exuded an enticing aroma, opened his mouth wide and took a bite.
Hmm.
The deliciousness of the chicken feet made Guo Haoxi squint his eyes in ecstasy.
tasty!
The chicken feet are tender and juicy, melt in your mouth, and the meat is rich and mellow, leaving a long aftertaste that makes you want to eat more.
Soon, Guo Haoxi finished eating the chicken feet in two or three bites.
Then, he picked up the chopsticks and picked up a chicken foot for each of Deng Qingling and his wife.
"Mom and Dad, please try it. These chicken feet are delicious."
"Okay, you can eat it yourself, no need to serve us more food." Deng Qingling said with a smile.
Soon, the food on the table was decreasing little by little, and there was little food left on the plates.
As soon as they put down their chopsticks, Supervisor Lu came in with the order. When he saw that there was very little food left on the table, his expression didn't change.
"Boss, do you need two more dishes?" Foreman Lu asked, standing behind Deng Qingling.
As soon as she finished speaking, Guo Haoxi burped.
"Uh~~~~~"
The hiccups echoed in the quiet private room, and Guo Haoxi lowered his head in embarrassment.
He really wanted to crawl under the table.
"No need." Deng Qingling: "Give me the list."
Upon hearing this, Foreman Lu immediately handed the bill and pen to Deng Qingling with both hands.
Deng Qingling took the bill and pen and signed her name.
This is Deng Qingling's rule. You have to sign the bill after making any purchases and keep a clear record of where every penny goes. This way, it will be easier to calculate when taking inventory at the end of the month.
After Lu the foreman left, Guo Haoxi raised his head and asked, "Mom, how much did this meal cost?"
He was so embarrassed just now that he didn't notice how much money his mother gave him.
"Not a penny was spent." Deng Qingling said.
"No money spent?!" Guo Haoxi thought he had misheard.
"I didn't spend any money because this restaurant is ours," said Deng Qingling.
"What? My own?" Guo Haoxi looked incredulous. "Is it the one I was thinking of?"
Deng Qingling: "It's just what you think."
"Really? That's great." Guo Haoxi was ecstatic and wanted to have one of every dish on the menu right away.
Deng Qingling: "This place is not far from your school. You can come here to study during your holidays. Doing business can't just be theory talk.
You should start as a waiter first, as waiters can interact with all kinds of people. "If the second brother is suitable, it's not impossible to give him the business in the future.
"Okay." Guo Haoxi said, "Mom, can you pay me?"
Deng Qingling: "Sure, you can get whatever the temporary worker salary is."
"Thank you, Mom."
...... ... ... ... ... ... ...
I’ll fast forward to the ending first, and then add the extra stories and love lines about the children after the Chinese New Year.
Because I have to work as a temporary worker in a supermarket, I don’t have much time to write, so please forgive me!
