While waiting for the food to arrive, the young guy and his companion started eating cold noodles, "The taste is really good, very appetizing."
During the hot sumr, many people don’t have much of an appetite, but this serving of cold noodles greatly improved theirs.
"Yes, it’s sour and a bit sweet, very appetizing." Another young guy chid in.
Zhang Yu and her friend ate with great relish. So might say they were just pretending, but when the guys all said the food was good, everyone felt like giving it a try.
"Boss lady, one order please."
"Xiao Feng, one order as well."
No one waited; they all promptly ordered a serving. Feng Liya looked at the crowd eagerly placing orders and realized a big problem, "Today is the first ti we’re making it, so we don’t have much."
Despite Zhang Tao constantly joking about his excellent culinary skills and that no one would miss out on his food, when the ti ca, he was still conservative and didn’t make much. In the end, he only prepared ten bowls of cold noodles.
It was quite amusing to see those who managed to grab a portion feeling proud.
After tasting, "The flavor is really good, truly appetizing."
Those who didn’t manage to grab any were full of regret, wondering why they had been a step too slow. To their surprise, the ones who did started boasting about how appetizing the noodles were.
The crowd was quite upset, "Xiao Feng, today was just a trial, it’s okay if there’s not much, but you have to make more tomorrow."
Never mind, as long as Zhang Tao makes more, it’s not really a problem, it can be easily done.
"There really is no way, making cold noodles is labor-intensive. We’re running a restaurant." Is it really that hard?
The difficulty isn’t too high, mainly it’s about presentation, the dish must be plated well, otherwise, how can you expect people to pay, it’s all about the effect.
What could the crowd do? Were they supposed to ignore the stir-fry? With cold noodles being so popular now, of course, they’d be quick to capitalize on this business, but they didn’t dare say it, seeing as the factory leaders loved coming here for lunch.
If the leaders heard that they were suggesting Zhao Tao stop cooking and make cold noodles, the factory leaders would be very unhappy.
"By the way, isn’t your daughter on sumr vacation now? Can’t she help out?" Everyone knows that Zhang Yu’s grades aren’t that great, so there’s no point in spending money on tutoring, after all, her grades haven’t improved much from it.
Since tutoring hasn’t been very effective, why waste money? She might as well help out at the restaurant. If she doesn’t do well on the college entrance exams, there’s no need for a prep course, just prepare to take over the family business. Whether she attends university really doesn’t matter.
Feng Liya had been greeting the guests with a smile, but hearing this made her very upset.
"My daughter is going to university." Although Feng Liya didn’t know the person speaking, they looked familiar, so she knew they were from the residential area.
Feng Liya knew how her family was perceived in the area, and had never thought to defend or explain because it wasn’t necessary.
But now they were directly challenging her, how could she endure? "If I have the energy, I’ll do it, if not, I won’t."
If it weren’t for the fact that she was in the restaurant, she wouldn’t have let it slide.
Feng Liya didn’t recognize the person, but Zhang Yu did, "How did your son Li Bin do in the end-of-term exam? Should you hang a big red lantern to celebrate?"
"Uncle Li, I know you always say girls don’t need much education, but Li Bin is your son, he’s just in elentary school yet already failed."
Ha, he should think about his own child’s grades before implying hers aren’t good.
The other person didn’t expect Zhang Yu to be so direct, asking about his son’s grades in front of everyone, which enraged him.
He wanted to retort, but how could he when his son’s grades were widely known to be poor, "A cheeky little girl, such a smooth talker."
"Thank you, that’s why I plan to study law in the future." Wow, Zhang Yu suddenly thought being a lawyer might actually be a good choice.
Wu Minxia didn’t expect Zhang Yu to choose to beco a lawyer, she was quite surprised. But thinking it over, Zhang Yu could be a bit sharp-tongued and quick-witted, making her a good candidate for the profession.
Usually, when soone says a girl has a sharp tongue, it’s not a complint. Girls are often too shy to speak up, worried about damaging their reputation.
Who would’ve thought Zhang Yu would play along and even ntion her desired major, intending to study law, unbelievable.
The crowd honestly couldn’t believe that with Zhang Yu’s sharp tongue, what it would be like if she beca a lawyer. But thinking about her choice, it wasn’t too surprising.
"Uncle Li, right now Li Bin is a primary school student, you should really keep an eye on him." Zhang Yu said half-jokingly. This man’s precious son is already consistently failing in elentary school, and during ho visits, teachers hope parents will watch over their child’s studies.
Yet this guy straightforwardly stated that boys mature later, they’ll co around in middle school.
Then, when in middle school, his academic performance continued to be poor, not passing by the third year, which scared the father into realizing the situation wasn’t good, then sought a tutor.
But once people saw the boy’s grades, who would dare take on such a student that could tarnish their reputation? Thus, after finishing middle school, he couldn’t get into any vocational schools and ended his formal education.
The teenage boy went out to work, but people saw him as too young, so he road around, becoming a loafer, hanging out with delinquents, and frequently visiting the police station beca as normal as eating.
This person realized later and wanted to control his son, but Li Bin was already used to an easy life and how could he adapt to working? After big argunts, the son severely berated his father.
Afterward, the father quieted down, no longer daring to ddle in his son’s affairs, and the son continued his cycle of being detained and re-offending, becoming quite a dangerous elent.
Zhang Yu knew this, even though, by that ti, her family had already moved out of the residential area. Mainly because this boy later worked as a debt collector enforcer and Zhang Tao had seen him a few tis and reminded Zhang Yu never to spoil kids.
The person thought they could suppress Zhang Yu, but who would have thought she’d counterattack so well and advise him to discipline his own son.
"My son’s grades may not be great, but so what, it’s just elentary content, hardly difficult."
"Boys mature late, once they mature, their grades will easily improve, don’t worry, Li Bin’s grades will surely improve, no need for your concern." He said, storming off.
Watching the person’s back, Zhang Yu was puzzled, "He can say my grades aren’t good, but when I ask about his son’s scores, he gets upset, that’s too much."
"Plus, it’s just that my science scores aren’t very high, but I still passed at the end of the term, and my grades are quite decent."
"I really don’t get what he’s thinking." Zhang Yu said with a puzzled expression.
