Chapter 14: The Alluring Liu Ran
to helping the Jia family, everyone in this courtyard, including myself, has done more than you. I've given them food boxes before, and don't forget that they still owe me money!"Lou Xiaogua frowned:...Hearing that Lou Xiaogua wouldn't go home with him today, Xu Damao became unhappy. He frowned and grumbled, "What kind of trouble are you causing again! My mother is having a rare birthday this year, and as the daughter-in-law, you're not even showing your face How can I explain this to my parents when I go back!"
Lou Xiaoe let out a cold snort and said, "Haven't you always wanted to be a shareholder Today my father and several shareholders are inviting Zheng Secretary to dinner at Fengze Garden. If you want me to go home with you, that's fine, but just stop whispering these nonsensical things in my ear from now on!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Damao's eyes lit up. This kid has always dreamed of being someone's godfather.
I always feel that I have enough experience, and there is also a big shareholder's father-in-law behind the scenes. As long as I perform well, this matter will definitely be hopeful.
Unexpectedly, after several trips to his in-laws' home, the old man-in-law didn't treat him as a meal ticket at all. Even the bicycle he was riding now was only obtained after Lou Xiaoxiao went back to her parents' home several times and did enough ideological work on her mother-in-law.
Right now, hearing that his wife was willing to go through the trouble of being his godmother again, the kid lost all his temper and hurriedly flattered him: “Don't bother with this, important matters are more important. Go do your own thing! I’ll explain to my mom when I get back!”
Lori glared at him. "Are you sure you don't need me to walk you home"
Xu Damao patted his chest with a loud boom: "No need! Anyway, I didn't invite any guests. Hey, why don't I go with you"
Looking at his vulgar appearance, Lou Xia'e felt a surge of disgust in her heart.
Just now he was pretending to be such a filial son, but as soon as he heard about this good fortune, he dropped the act
The young mistress coldly said, "What identity do you think you should use to go What would Secretary Zheng think when he sees you Public is public, private is private, what if the other shareholders see this"
"Oh, I got so excited I forgot! You're always the more thoughtful one. Alright, I won't go. Good wife, this is all in your hands! In the future, I'll definitely improve myself. We have to stand tall and show everyone what a good life looks like!"

Hongxing Rolling Mill,
Yī Canteen,
Kitchen.
He Yuzhu held a porcelain teacup in his hand and called several people from the kitchen to him: "From now on, Ma Hua will be in charge of cooking for everyone. Fatty, you are responsible for keeping things clean. Also, there is an official reception at the factory today at noon. The guests are coming from Yuecheng, so be careful and don't mess anything up!"
Ma Hua was so excited that he couldn't sit still. Even on his way home last night, he kept going over what his master had taught him in his mind several times.
This morning, although I was a bit nervous while stir-frying, the master tasted it and still encouraged me with a few words. He urged me to master the heat control and the timing of adding salt, and then temporarily entrusted me with the large pot dish.
Of course, this is only temporary. The master said that I'm not skilled enough yet and can't be careless when cooking.
From now on, whoever is the best chef at the canteen gets to be in charge. If someone doesn't do well, then other people will have to take responsibility for cooking. Otherwise, wouldn't that Fatty kid have been so diligent when he was mopping the floor just a while ago
Everyone else had left, and He Yuzhu beckoned Liu Lan over to him: "Liu Lan, go to the logistics department for a run. See if you can figure out how to get the ingredients for today's noon meal delivered to me in advance."
Liu Ran quickly took off the apron around her waist and tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear, mumbling, "I'll just go for a quick run. But I'm nobody important, and everyone in the logistics department is a big shot. Whether I can get this done, I can't guarantee!"
He Yuzhu nodded: "Alright, you're free this morning, just get this done properly! Best if you can deliver the stuff by 9:30."
To become the head chef, one has to seize these opportunities for entertaining. It also takes time to purify the ingredients systematically, and he can't be sure how long it will take in total, so he needs to get his hands on the ingredients first.
Hearing this, Liu Ran gave a charming smile: "Alright, that's more like it! I'll try my best!"
Where did Liu Ru come from with such a big face
But she couldn't help but be close to Li, the deputy factory director in charge of logistics! This matter is only suitable for her to handle!
........
10 o'clock.
The head chef, Liu Limin, with a big belly, came to the canteen for an "inspection" .
On a scorching hot day, as soon as he opened the back kitchen door, it was stiflingly hot inside. In the past, Liu Limin, hadn't been this diligent. He could just sit in his office, sipping tea and reading the newspaper!
To put it simply, it's because this old geezer received ten yuan in hush money from Xu Damai this morning.
Since Xu Damai had this kind of "filial piety," Liu Liniang naturally had to get things done properly.
In fact, it's just a way to make things difficult for He Yuzhu. To Liu Limin, this is really not a big deal.
What waves can a mere eighth-grade cook possibly make
This huge factory with tens of thousands of employees has five canteens under its own management. Even if someone wanted to punish this person by finding a reason and sending him to clean the toilets, they could easily find someone from another canteen to replace him in minutes!
Seeing He Yuzhu with his legs crossed, sipping from a enamel cup and "laughing and joking" with the young Mrs. Liu Lan, Liu Limin, who was already plump and sweating profusely from the heat, was furious.
Well, well, well. A level 8 cook acting like he's the big shot now, huh
There's no need to make up excuses, this is something you, Sha Zhu, brought upon yourself!
"Sha Zhu, why are you messing around there instead of cooking properly You beat Xu Damai yesterday without being honest, and today you're putting on airs again Do you really think this dining hall is your own house"
Seeing this old boy's frustrated look, He Yuzhu couldn't help but squint his eyes.
As expected, Xu Damao really spared no expense to hone himself!
He Yuzhu said solemnly: "Liu Director, we must speak with conscience. I'm just discussing the sanitation of the canteen with Liu Ran, not procrastinating!"
Liu Limin pressed on, "Who are you trying to fool! That flirting back and forth you two just had was about work"
Today, I have to make this kid clean the toilet!
He Yuzhu glanced at Liu Lan's gloomy face, feeling extremely pleased inside. But he still insisted with his mouth: "I can be blamed, but don't involve Liu Lan in this. This morning I asked her to go to the logistics department to handle some business. She just came back to rest when you scolded her. What kind of thing is this"
Liu Yan glanced gratefully at He Yuzhu. She found that she had been looking at Silly Zhu extra pleasingly these two days. This person kept his word, and when things happened, he wouldn't beat around the bush and would take responsibility without implicating others!ide.Today, Lou Xia'e is coming back. Knowing that his wife went back to her parents' home for his career, Xu Damai has indeed invested a lot.After pacifying Lou Xiaog, he became the sole boss in this...
