When Ye Qing talked to Lin Wan, there was a charming smile on her face, but the smile was so fake that it ruined the beauty of her lovely little face.
Ye Qing didnât have Lin Wanâs pure and clean beauty; instead, she had a bright and alluring charm. If she wore makeup, she would have a seductive grace. However, she still had some immaturity now.
"You too. Your skin has become a lot fairer. Much prettier than before."
Lin Wanâs words made Ye Qing feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Since brother asked you to come, just work well here. Itâs one dollar a day, which is enough for more than half a monthâs living expenses."
Ye Qingâs dad wasnât diligent either; he muddled through each day without achieving much. If it werenât for the help from Ye Qingâs Grandpaâs family, they might not be living much better than her family.
However, her Grandpa was no longer the village party secretary, and his prestige was gradually declining. At home, with a daughter-in-law and grandchildren, he couldnât help much either.
Ye Qingâs dad liked drinking, spent his days in a daze, unable to do anything. The farm work was done by her brother and mother, and her mother often got beaten by her dad, spending many days unable to get out of bed. The only person in the family who could be relied upon was her brother, but he was numb to the family, focusing only on his own work, and didnât care much about the familyâs affairs. Letting her go to college was because Ye Qingâs dad wanted to show off in the village and save face, borrowing a lot of money for it. Besides, even the poorer Liang family could afford college, so they believed they could too. It had to be said that apart from being lazy, Ye Qingâs dad loved to show off.
Lin Wan didnât wait for Ye Qing to speak and called Xiao Yu over. "Xiao Yu, you show Ye Qing around."
Then she said to Ye Qing, "If you donât know anything, just ask Xiao Yu. Sheâs an old hand in the store, so you can follow her from now on."
When Lin Yinghui brought Ye Qing in, he coincidentally met Huang Dashan delivering seafood. At this time, Lin Yinghui wasnât beside them, so Lin Wan spoke with less restraint.
She couldnât forget Ye Qingâs nasty face before she died in her past life. Originally, she wanted to stay away from her, but now Ye Qing was approaching herself. She wasnât the fool from her past, letting people take advantage of her while remembering their kindness.
"Xiao Wan, I will work hard and not let you lose face," Ye Qing said with a smile, holding back her unhappiness inside.
"Itâs not about losing face or not, just do a good job. We have rules in our store; if you donât do well, your salary will be deducted."
Lin Wan didnât want to argue much with Ye Qing, so she said something to Xiao Yu and took Ye Qing to get busy.
She originally wanted the waiters in the store to wear a uniform, but later was too busy to think about it. So she bought a few chefâs hats for them to wear.
In restaurants, the most taboo thing was finding a hair in the food. Lin Wan was very attentive in this regard.
Lin Yinghui and Huang Dashan went to their village. Besides mountain goods, their specialty was sweet potato vermicelli, with almost every household growing sweet potatoes. During the sweet potato harvest season, the vermicelli workshops were filled with people.
A pound of vermicelli cost one dollar. This price was quite high. Since it was their first time doing this kind of business, Lin Yinghui didnât dare take too much, only taking five hundred pounds.
Country folks were honest, and since it was their own stuff, they didnât mind giving a tiny bit more.
In the end, Lin Yinghui calculated and found that they got at least ten pounds more.
Lin Yinghui stayed at Huang Dashanâs place for a night, and the next day Brother Huang helped him send the goods back to the city.
