Chapter 7 The Grumpy Boss
On the way back to the rental house, what Leng Yu said kept echoing in Ye Tong's heart. In front of thousands of people, he said to her, "Ye Tong, I will bet my life to give you a home."
About ten days before the start of high school, Ye Tong was going to find a part-time job. She is now sixteen years old and can do some part-time jobs to earn money.
The next morning, Ye Tong went to the restaurant alone to find a part-time job near the rental house after having breakfast.
"Have you done any part-time jobs before?" A woman with heavy makeup was asking about Ye Tong's part-time job status.
"No." Ye Tong replied helplessly.
"I'm sorry, we need an experienced person for our job here, go find the next one!"
Ye Tong walked out of the room in frustration. This was the fifth boss she asked. They either thought she was young or thought she had no work experience, and they all rejected her in the end.
Although it is difficult to find a part-time job, Ye Tong has no intention of giving up. She will keep looking for it until she finds it.
"Can you guarantee to work eight hours a day?" This is the sixth part-time job that Ye Tong is looking for.
"It doesn't matter how many hours I work in the past ten days. It's just that I have to go to school in ten days. I work eight hours, maybe not that much time." Ye Tong finally felt a little comfort in his heart. This was the first boss who was willing to accept her. .
"Sorry, the jobs we recruited must meet the requirement of working eight hours a day. You can find other jobs."
"Thank you boss." After Ye Tong thanked the boss, she turned around and walked out of the room. This time she was obviously much happier. She believed that as long as she persisted, she would definitely find a part-time job.
Ye Tong passed by a restaurant and saw a recruitment notice posted on it. After Ye Tong cheered himself up, he gathered up the courage and walked into the restaurant.
Before reaching the counter, Ye Tong heard the noisy voice of the customer: "Boss, come and have a look, I ate hair from your dishes, how should I explain this?"
A plainly dressed woman with an apron walked up to the guest and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, it was my negligence, I'll change a dish for you right away."
"I don't need to change the dishes. I'm full. Can you tell me how to solve this problem?" The guest clearly didn't want to pay.
"I'm sorry, it's our shop's negligence, I'll take your meal as yours." The woman kept apologizing, and it seemed that she didn't want to cause trouble.
"It's about the same, pay more attention next time, or I will complain to you." After the guest finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave.
Just when the customer stood up, a boy's voice came from behind the counter: "Wait, this is not a place where you come and leave when you say it."
"What do you mean by that?" The guest stared at the teenager who came out from behind the counter.
The teenager was wearing a sports suit, his hair was disheveled, and slippers were on his feet, and he seemed to have just woken up.
"I said, you brought a piece of hair with you when you came. After eating, you deliberately threw your hair into the dishes we made, and then framed it and wanted to eat the Overlord's meal."
"Boy, I advise you to pay attention to what you say, otherwise today's meal will not be as simple as a free order." The guest watched the young man walk in front of him, and there was no fear on his face.
"We have surveillance records in the background. Do you want me to send you the surveillance video?" The boy said the last few words in a particularly loud voice. All the guests present were startled, even those standing in the distance. Ye Tong was also taken aback.
"If you have the ability, take it out." The guest's voice was much lower, giving people the feeling of being a thief with a guilty conscience.
"The labor and capital will be shown to you right away. If you dare to run, you will be your grandson." The boy almost said this sentence in a roaring way.
"Lin'er, that's enough, there's no need to make such a big fuss, guest, you go first, we've invited this meal." The woman looked at the boy angrily.
"Mom, you have this kind of temperament. You are bullied by others. This kind of scum comes for the first time and will come again for the second time. If you tolerate it again and again, will we still do business?" The teenager did not mean to back down. .
"Boy, who are you calling a scumbag?" The guest grabbed the boy's collar, looking like he was going to do something.
The teenager responded quickly, kicked the guest to the ground with one foot, took out the phone from his trouser pocket, and played a picture of the guest letting his hair down: "The scum is talking about you."
After seeing the video on the teenager's mobile phone, other guests in the room accused the guests who were kicked down by the teenager.
When the guest saw that he was outraged, he ran away in despair, and before leaving, he said to the young man, "Little bastard, wait for the labor and management."
"Who do you say is a bastard, come back to the laborers, and I won't be named Xia if you don't beat yourself up all over the place today." The young man was about to rush out of the room to chase the guest, and his mother hurriedly took him away. stopped.
"Okay, when are you going to make trouble, go back to the room for me." The woman looked at the boy angrily.
The teenager did not continue chasing the escaped guest, nor did he return to the room behind the counter, but sat behind the counter and continued to play with his mobile phone.
"I'm sorry, my guests, I've surprised everyone today. Please leave the restaurant as soon as possible after eating. We're going to close. I'm really sorry for the poor greeting." The woman didn't want to continue her business today.
Ye Tong stood in the distance and didn't know what to do. She wanted to go up and ask if she wanted to recruit staff, but looking at the situation in front of her, she didn't dare to ask.
The teenager behind the counter seemed to notice Ye Tong's presence, and walked towards her lazily: "Hello, what do you want to eat?"
The boy suddenly spoke to himself, Ye Tong couldn't react, and said in a panic, "Do you still need manpower here? I want to take a part-time job here."
"Do you want to find a part-time job? Yes, we are lacking a helper in our store." The boy answered Ye Tong's question without hesitation.
"But..." Ye Tong didn't say the rest, what she wanted to say was that you are not the owner of this store, can you be the master?
The teenager guessed Ye Tong's doubts, and turned to his mother and said, "Mom, a girl wants to come to our store to do a part-time job, I promise you, you can discuss the salary with her."
At this time, the customers in the store were basically finished, and the woman closed the store door and hung up a sign that it was temporarily closed.
"Beauty, come with me." The woman took Ye Tong to the room behind the counter and let her sit on the sofa, while the boy still sat behind the counter and played with his mobile phone.
"Our part-time job here is very hard. We have to wash dishes every day, and we don't close until 12 o'clock in the evening. If you can hold on, you can stay here, with a guaranteed minimum salary of 2,000 yuan, and a commission if you do well."
"Auntie, I'm still a student, and the school will start in ten days. There may be very little work time by then. I wonder if I can still stay here?" Ye Tong didn't want to hide anything. She wasn't sure when the school started. How many hours of work can you do each day.
"It doesn't matter, when you start school, come to the store in the evening to clean up the sanitation, and just wash the dishes and chopsticks."
"Thank you Auntie." Ye Tong was very happy, she finally found her first part-time job.
"Well, you can come to work tomorrow. We open at 8 in the morning, so you can come at 7:30. After school starts, there are no fixed working hours, as long as you can clean up before the next day, put Just wash the dishes."
"Okay, thank you Auntie." Ye Tong's face showed a long-lost smile. At this moment, she didn't know that the teenager behind the counter was watching her silently.
"Beauty, what's your name?"
"Auntie, my name is Ye Tong."
"Okay, my name is Chen Anhui. The boy sitting behind the counter is my son Xia Lin. You can call me Aunt Chen in the future."
"Aunt Chen, then I'll go back first, and I'll come to work tomorrow morning."
"be careful on the road."
Ye Tong went back to her rented house, simply ate something and went to bed. She wanted to keep her spirits up so she could meet her first part-time job tomorrow.
The next day, before 7:30, Ye Tong came to the store, and Aunt Chen had already woken up to clean up the restaurant.
Ye Tong brought a mop to help clean up the restaurant. This was her first part-time job, and she didn't want to screw it up.
Ye Tong's job content is uncertain. She will go there to help where there is a need for manpower. If there are many customers in the store, she will help to order meals. The table is cleaned up after the meal.
After a few days of work, Ye Tong found out that Xia Lin was a very irritable boy. If a guest deliberately found fault, he would definitely roar back loudly, and sometimes fight with the guest.
Logically speaking, there is such a small boss in the store, and the business is not good, but Aunt Chen's dishes are especially delicious. Even with such a irascible little boss, the restaurant is still full of people every day.
There are still five days before the high school starts, and the teachers in the freshmen group are counting the students' living and commuting.
"Ye Tong, do you choose to live on campus or go to school?" Leng Yu asked Ye Tong's choice on the other end of the phone.
"Because I still have a part-time job, I chose to study day. My salary is enough to pay my rent and support my living."
"The day I left, I wanted to leave some money for you as living expenses for the past few days, but you insisted not. I want to help you pay the tuition fees. You can't refuse me this time." Leng Yu recalled the day he left, He wanted to leave some money for Ye Tong as living expenses for the past few days, but Ye Tong refused.
"Leng Yu, have you forgotten? My father left me 30,000 yuan when I left. There is no problem in paying the tuition for three years of high school, let alone one semester, so don't worry about me."
"But……"
Before Leng Yu could finish speaking, Ye Tong interrupted him: "What about you, do you choose to study day or live on campus?"
"Since you choose to study, then I will study too. Then I will find a part-time job outside." Leng Yu thought that if he chose to study like Ye Tong, he would be able to take good care of her.
"No, the reason why I choose day study is because not only did I find a part-time job, but also the rented house has not expired. If you choose to study on a day-to-day basis, you will not only have to find a rented house, but also a part-time job, which is very troublesome and has no time It's too late, so you still choose to live on campus, it's okay, you don't have to worry about me, I will take care of myself."
"Okay, come to me if you need anything, and I will definitely appear."
"Well, let's not talk about it, I have to go to work, let's see you at the beginning of school, bye."
The next day, the freshmen group posted the detailed information of each student. Ye Tong chose day school, Leng Yu chose to live on campus, and day students had to get a pass after school started. You cannot leave the school outside.
