The cold dishes arrived quickly, and of course wine was also a must.
However, Jianshu doesn't like to be forced to drink, and he stated in advance, "I'm happy today. If you want to drink, you can have a little. It's okay if you can't drink. We are all family, we don't need to be picky. There are drinks and teas next to you, so pour yourself what you want. I only have one request, and that is to eat and drink well. If anyone goes home hungry, I won't agree!"
"Don't worry, store manager, we promise to eat everything!"
"Walk in, hold on to the wall and go out!"
"Hahaha--"
A group of people were chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere soon became lively.
The atmosphere in the clothing store has always been good. At this moment, no one cares too much about the differences between the upper and lower classes. People are talking and laughing.
The dishes arrived quickly, filling up the table in no time. The food was piping hot, instantly warming up the room.
Jianshu took off her coat and picked up some food for her daughter. Her short hands couldn't reach the dishes that were far away, so she just had to give orders for what she wanted to eat. Jianshu looked like a maid serving a young lady.
From time to time, I had to clink glasses with the employees who came to toast me, so the meal was very busy.
They ate, drank, talked and laughed, and everyone's face was flushed, and their words were full of praise.
"This food tastes really good, much better than the ones in state-owned restaurants."
"No wonder it's so expensive, they really have the skills."
"That's right. If the taste is not good, people are not stupid. Who would be willing to spend this money?"
"I heard that the seats are booked up to a week later. Business is really good."
“Ordinary people really can’t learn it.”
In the middle of the meeting, Lu Qing came over to toast with a glass of wine and got to know everyone.
As the banquet drew to a close, the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall that Gu Yiyi had been craving for arrived. The portion was quite large, but it couldn't handle the large crowd. With more than a dozen people sharing, each person only got a small bowl.
Everyone sniffed the overbearing aroma, touched their stomachs, and felt that they could still eat another bowl.
This is Buddha Jumps Over the Wall!
Who can resist its temptation?
After finishing a small bowl of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, everyone collapsed in their seats, holding their stomachs, and savoring the taste.
Oh my god, they have also eaten Buddha Jumps Over the Wall.
Jianshu ate in moderation, only eating until he was 70% full, but he didn't feel overeating.
Looking at everyone's expressions, she smiled and said, "I ordered small cakes for everyone. Can you eat them?"
There must be dessert after the meal, but it looks like no one can eat anymore.
Xi Yan, who loves desserts, brightened up her eyes and struggled to get up, "Help me up, I can still eat!"
"Pfft——" everyone burst into laughter.
After being together for so long, who doesn’t know who?
I remember when I got my first salary, everyone else went to buy rice and meat, but I just sat down and went straight to the dessert area, ordering four or five cakes and snacks.
At that time, others were sighing in their hearts, saying that he was really like a little child.
At this moment, how could this child who loves desserts look as capable as he usually does at work?
Jian Shu laughed, "Okay, if you can't eat anymore, don't force yourself. I'll ask the boss to pack it up for you to take home."
“Thank you, manager!”
All the dishes on the table were swept away, even the soup was eaten up with rice, and today's banquet was almost over.
Standing at the door of the store, Jianshu was about to arrange for a few male comrades to send the girls back first, when a shout came from the darkness not far away.
"Sister!" Mei's second and third brothers came trotting over.
"Is this your brother? Is he here to take you home?" Jian Shu asked.
Mei Han smiled and nodded, "Manager, this is my second brother, and this is my third brother. This is our manager." The latter sentence was obviously said to the two younger brothers.
"Hello, store manager!" The second and third brothers Mei were very respectful and grateful to their sister's boss, and greeted him quickly.
Jian Shu smiled and nodded, "Hello, have you been waiting for a long time?"
"Not long ago, we just arrived not long ago." The two of them shook their heads quickly.
Seeing the chill on the two of them, Jian Shu knew that what they said was untrue. However, she didn't expose it. She turned to look at Mei Han and said, "Then you three siblings should go back early. It's cold outside. Don't freeze."
"Everyone, go home early. I wish you all a happy new year in advance."
"Happy New Year, Manager!"
Everyone said Happy New Year to each other and left together.
Jian Shu watched everyone leave, turned around and walked in, and caught the little girl secretly eating a small cake in the corner of the lobby.
"Gu Yiyi!"
The little girl shuddered with fear and quickly hid the cake behind her. She turned around and smiled at Jian Shu ingratiatingly, "Mom, I didn't eat it. I just smelled it."
"Really? Then which little mouse ate the missing piece at the top?"
"I don't know--" the little girl blinked her big eyes, trying to get away with it.
Jian Shu was both angry and amused. He took the small cake from her hand and wiped her hands with a handkerchief. "If you keep eating, be careful that bugs will eat all your teeth. Then you'll be a toothless old lady and won't be able to eat meat anymore!"
The six-year-old girl wouldn't be scared by her. "No way! If a tooth falls out, it will grow back!"
"Teeth will grow back, but cavities hurt. Who rolled around in pain in bed the other night?"
Thinking about the painful toothache a few days ago, Gu Yiyi pursed his lips and said reluctantly, "Okay, then I won't eat the cake."
"You said the same thing a few days ago." Jian Shu said expressionlessly.
Don't believe a child's promise, just like a man's mouth, it is not trustworthy at all.
Gu Yiyi snapped her fingers, feeling a little embarrassed. "I didn't want to do that either, but the cake smelled so good. It's all my fault for tempting me!"
She hadn't eaten any sweets or snacks for several days and was already craving for them. When she smelled the even more fragrant scent of the little cakes, how could she resist?
Jianshu sighed slightly, but didn't say anything else.
Many adults cannot resist the temptation of desserts. What kind of self-control can you expect from a six-year-old child?
Only adults can control it.
Jianshu decided to eat up all the candies and snacks in the house when he got home, so as not to give her any chance to lose control.
At this time, Gu Yiyi didn't know what a terrible decision her mother had made.
Seeing the figure approaching from a distance, her eyes lit up and she rushed over like a gust of wind, "Dad!"
Gu Mingjing, who had been prepared, squatted down, caught her and picked her up, smiling softly, and replied, "Hey!"
Tsk, that voice is so soft, it seems like honey is dripping out of it.
