Zhang Jisheng pricked up his ears, listening to Cheng Su’s instructions about someone who would come to the store tomorrow and needed to wait, and so on.
Could it be that as soon as his wife left, he found someone to replace her?
Zhang Jisheng felt a sense of urgency.
Although he didn’t quite like Qi Fenglian leaving home to work so far away, the salary that Cheng Su offered was indeed substantial—several dozen yuan a month! Where in their county could they find such an amount, when even having a dozen yuan was considered impressive!
Several dozen yuan a month added up to several hundred a year, and he heard there were year-end bonuses and profit-sharing and not particularly hard work. Plus, they provided food; it was rather comfortable.
If someone were to take her place, that would be a loss!
While Cheng Su was in the bathroom, Zhang Jisheng darted over to Xiaoying and asked, "Yingzi, are you hiring someone new here?"
Xiaoying nodded: "Yeah, we hired someone this afternoon, starting work tomorrow!"
Zhang Jisheng’s brows furrowed.
After eating at the store, Zhang Jisheng left, while Cheng Su asked Xiaoying if it was common for Zhang Jisheng to bring people in for meals like this.
She remembered that the renovation crew also got meals, especially when working overtime.
"Not really, but he comes by himself," Xiaoying honestly replied, and after thinking, added, "He also has meal vouchers."
Cheng Su smiled faintly, "It’s nothing, I was just asking."
Elder Sister had to work two shifts and rarely came home for dinner, so it was convenient for her husband to eat here. A meal was no big deal, but what Cheng Su disapproved of was his manner.
Just take the things he said when he first came in; he treated the shop as if it were his own, inviting his coworkers to eat!
