Cheng Su called Qi Fenglian and after some pleasantries and small talk about the family, how everyone was doing, and when they were planning to return home for the New Year, Cheng Su broached the main subject.
"The shop is currently being renovated, and the plan is to officially open after the New Year. So, I’m already staffing up, including chefs who need to come to the restaurant for a trial work period, and other service staff," Cheng Su said. "Elder Sister, if you’re sure you want to come, when do you think you could come and learn a bit?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Fenglian said, "But I don’t really know how to do anything. Aside from some handicraft work before, I’ve never formally worked anywhere. Can I really do this?"
Cheng Su laughed, "That’s exactly why you need to learn, it’s not technically difficult and is easy to get the hang of."
"Then, what would I do if I went there?" Qi Fenglian asked tentatively.
Indeed, that question stumped Cheng Su, for she hadn’t really thought it through.
"How about taking care of the cash register? And when it’s quiet, you could help clean up the tables and such," Cheng Su hesitated.
She didn’t know what Qi Fenglian was capable of, but since she was the Elder Sister, handling the cash register shouldn’t be a problem, right? Plus, she was family and could be trusted.
"Handling the cash, huh," Qi Fenglian became even more nervous. "That has to be done carefully, right?"
Cheng Su chuckled lightly, "Whatever the job, it has to be done with care."
"That’s true!"
Qi Fenglian hesitated for a moment on the other end, then said, "About that, your brother-in-law is also coming with me, what do you think?"
"If he’s willing, he can join my friend’s renovation team. I’ve already mentioned it to them!" Cheng Su quickly said.
"He’s willing, definitely willing," Qi Fenglian immediately agreed.
