"It’s not that we’re just focused on making money, but we’re in the food business, how can we eat while cooking? What would our custors think if they saw that? It’s just past nine now, and it’s not too late to have breakfast."
Hearing Jiang Ran’s explanation, Pei Baoshan instinctively nodded, realizing Jiang Ran was right.
Understanding is one thing, but feeling sorry for them is another.
Thinking back to when they first arrived, Jiang Ran and the other two were wearing hats, masks, white aprons, and had white sleeves on their arms.
Whatever they took to eat, they used tongs or chopsticks.
Just looking at them makes you feel at ease.
After all, it’s food that enters the mouth, and cleanliness makes people eat comfortably and with peace of mind.
Pei Baoshan sighed, "From now on, eat a little sothing before opening the doors, or your stomach will suffer from hunger after a long morning."
A day or two isn’t a problem, but over ti, how can the body handle it?
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ran and the other two nodded repeatedly and quickly agreed.
Wang Cuilan hadn’t spoken all this while; she was busy cooking noodles for the three of them.
Making hand-pulled noodles now would be too ti-consuming.
Fortunately, they had so dried noodles, and cooking a few bowls of egg noodles was quick enough.
The steaming, delicious egg noodles ward them inside out, easing much of their fatigue.
Checking the ti, it was almost ten o’clock.
As soon as she saw the ti, Jiang Ran couldn’t sit still any longer.
"I have to hurry to the market to buy at and fish."
If she went too late, she probably wouldn’t be able to get any.
Hearing Jiang Ran’s words, Pei Yang stood up too, "Sister-in-law, I’ll go with you."
Jiang Ran did not refuse, with Pei Yang going along, he could help carry things, making it easier for her.
Once they decided to go, they left quickly, disappearing in no ti.
Wang Cuilan washed the dishes and then ca back to sit down.
Pei Shanshan was only fifteen this year, and her body hadn’t fully grown. She didn’t rest well last night, plus she had been busy for hours this morning, making her look quite weary.
Seeing Pei Shanshan like this, Wang Cuilan couldn’t help but feel distressed.
"Shanshan, why don’t you stay at ho, and I’ll co here to help."
"No way!" Pei Shanshan refused imdiately without even thinking.
Wang Cuilan thought Pei Shanshan wanted to earn money, so she continued, "Don’t worry, even if you’re busy at ho, you’ll still get your money."
But Pei Shanshan still shook her head, "Mom, it’s not just about the money for ."
Doing business is exhausting, and claiming it’s not about money would be a lie.
But for Pei Shanshan, it wasn’t just about the money.
"Following Sister-in-law in business, I can learn a lot of things, but if I stay at ho, I’ll just be washing clothes, cooking, feeding chickens, and pigs. I don’t want to spend my whole life like that."
Hearing Pei Shanshan’s words, Wang Cuilan and Pei Baoshan fell silent.
They felt sorry for the child, but they wouldn’t stop her from striving to improve.
Pei Shanshan was right; she could learn a lot by staying busy here.
When she was at ho, Pei Shanshan didn’t talk much and was a bit shy with people.
But now, facing the constant flow of custors, Pei Shanshan’s voice was clear, her words articulate, and her mind turned quickly. She was fast and accurate at calculating bills.
If not compared, it was hard to see, but once compared, the benefits were clear.
"Alright then, follow your sister-in-law and work hard, your sister-in-law is a capable person."
