“Alright, I don’t mind. It’s fine as long as he’s capable! How about this, find out if that person is free tomorrow? Ask him to come over tomorrow and cook for us!” Li Xiaoran said, “By the way, he has to have good moral character! I don’t want someone with a bad character!”
“Don’t worry! This person isn’t the irresponsible type! You’ll know when you see him tomorrow!” Yuan Cheng said.
“Then do you need to go back to the village to look for him? Aren’t you afraid of being stopped by your uncle and aunt?” Li Xiaoran thought of something and asked.
“Don’t worry, I won’t go. I’ll get Mao Dao to help me make a trip later. Actually, Mao Dao knows that person too!” Yuan Cheng explained.
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she was relieved.
To Li Xiaoran’s surprise, when their family arrived at the shop early the next morning, a large group of people appeared.
Zhao Xiu looked at the crowd in front of her in shock. Then, she looked at Li
Xiaoran.
“I didn’t call so many people, did I?”
The women who Zhao Xiu summoned had ugly expressions, but they still suppressed their anger.
“We heard that the shop is short of manpower. That’s why we came! It’s fine to have a few more people. The more people there are, the more options there are. Don’t you think so?” A woman with a mole on her face said loudly when she heard Zhao Xiu’s words.
The uninvited guests immediately echoed by saying that they were productive and that the salary they demanded was low.
Zhao Xiu had never seen such a scene before. For a moment, she was a little anxious and didn’t know what to do.
Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and went straight into the house to get a pot. Then, she knocked it a few times with a spatula.
A loud voice sounded. The people who had been chattering just now immediately looked over at Li Xiaoran.
“Stop talking. Since you all are here to give it a try, you have to follow my rules! Stand in front of me in two lines. If you don’t queue properly, please leave!” Li Xiaoran looked at the people around her as she stood on a big rock.
Although some people were unwilling, they could only obediently queue up when they heard Li Xiaoran’s words.
Someone wanted to cut the queue, but realized that Li Xiaoran was watching everyone, so that person gave up and ran to the back to queue.
Seeing that these people had lined up in two rows, Li Xiaoran put down the kettle and spatula.
Li Xiaoran looked at Yuan Cheng and Mao Dao, who were at the door, and instructed, “I’ll call people in one by one. The others will wait outside. When the people inside come out, I’ll call the next one in. Yuan Cheng, Mao Dao, keep an eye on them. If anyone cuts the queue, make them leave!”
Yuan Cheng and Mao Dao nodded. One of them only needed to guard the stall while the other watched the people queuing outside.
Just like that, no one dared to make a sound as they lined up quietly.
After saying the rules, Li Xiaoran looked at her mother and sister and said, “Mother, go ahead and get busy with my sister! Leave the matters here to me and Ziyang!”
Zhao Xiu looked at Li Xiaoran worriedly, then she was pulled to the noodle shop by Li Xiaoqing.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoran went to sit in the room, then she looked at Luo Ziyang.
“Ziyang, call the first person in!”
Luo Ziyang nodded and called someone in.
Zhao Xiu listened to the commotion next door from time to time and felt very anxious.
“Mother, don’t worry! This is no big deal. I can handle it!”
“I know your sister can deal with it, but I feel a little uncomfortable. I repeatedly reminded these people not to spread this matter, but they all brought people over. Although I was in shock just now, I saw it very clearly. Everyone brought their families over. Aren’t they breaking their promise?” Zhao Xiu said angrily.
She was being kind and wanted to help them.
Unexpectedly, her kindness wasn’t reciprocated.
To be honest, Zhao Xiu was very angry.
Li Xiaoqing could actually understand her mother’s feelings. If it were her, she would have lost her temper too.
“Mother, this is a good thing! This incident allowed us to see these people’s true colors! It’s a blessing in disguise for us. Just stay away from these people in the future! They can make us suffer a loss once, but they can’t make us suffer a loss again!”
Zhao Xiu felt better when she heard her youngest daughter’s words.
“That’s right! It’s worth it to suffer a loss in exchange for seeing these people’s true colors!”
With that, Zhao Xiu ignored the discomfort in her heart.
Li Xiaoran called them in one by one and asked some questions.
Li Xiaoran could see all these people’s emotions.
Li Xiaoran knew very well what the other party was thinking.
The morning passed, and the interviews finally ended.
Li Xiaoran said nothing. In the end, she took out a piece of paper with names written on it and walked out.
“Bai Shu, Yun Xiaoying, Zhang Xuan, the three of you can stay! The rest of you can go back!” Li Xiaoran said.
“What’s going on? Didn’t they say they were recruiting five people? Why are there only three?” Someone in the crowd immediately shouted unhappily.
Li Xiaoran immediately looked at the person who spoke and sneered.
“I’m the one hiring. I can hire as many people as I want! Are you still in charge of my family’s affairs?”
“Why didn’t I know that the Luo family is actually controlled by an outsider?” At this moment, Luo Cheng’s voice sounded.
Li Xiaoran looked over and saw Luo Cheng walking over with a few people.
“Husband, why are you here?” Li Xiaoran asked in surprise.
“The shop’s business is getting bigger and bigger. In the future, it will also be easier for people to cause trouble. I’m worried about the safety of my family, so I found a few people who know martial arts to work in the shop!” Luo Cheng walked over with his people and said to Li Xiaoran with a smile.
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately laughed.
“It just so happens that I want a few people who know martial arts. What a coincidence!”
“You can bring this in first. I’ll handle things here!” Luo Cheng said with a smile.
Li Xiaoran shook her head and said firmly, “It’s fine, I’ll do it myself! Husband, just stand behind and support me!”
When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he immediately changed his mind.
“Alright! Then I’ll support you! I want to see who dares to bully you with me around!”
