Chapter 565: Encountering a Strange Person in the Elevator
Chapter 565: Encountering a Strange Person in the Elevator
After the seven-day National Day holiday, the number of customers in breakfast shops has dropped slightly.
Although they no longer have to work around the clock, several employees are almost always busy during meal times.
Chen Shufang only had three days off at the factory, and she used them all to help Chen Shuyue. Chen Shuyue felt very guilty about it.
But Chen Shuyue knew her elder sister's character, and she would be unhappy if you didn't let her come.
Therefore, after the holiday, Chen Shuyue specially transferred two thousand yuan to her elder sister.
It was said to be a red envelope for the opening of the breakfast shop, and everyone would get one, so Chen Shufang was told that she must accept it, otherwise it would be unlucky.
Indeed, when the Xiyan Breakfast Shop branch opened, Chen Shuyue gave opening red envelopes to every employee, even the old employees who worked on Qinfen Road.
The only difference was that the employees’ red envelopes were 200 yuan each, but she gave Chen Shufang 2000 yuan.
Chen Shufang wondered if Chen Shuyue's opening bonus was a bit too generous. How could she possibly accept so much money?
But Chen Shuyue said it would be unlucky not to accept it, and Chen Shufang felt that she could not bring bad luck to her second sister's business. After hesitating for a long time, Chen Shufang still accepted the big red envelope.
Jiang Zhaodi and Jiang Pandi were also busy in Chen Shuyue's breakfast shop for seven days, and they returned to their hometown only when the children were about to go to school.
Chen Shuyue followed suit and gave each of her two daughters a transfer red envelope of 2000 yuan on the pretext of a grand opening red envelope.
However, after the second and third sons received the red envelopes, they gave the 2000 yuan red envelopes back to Chen Shuyue intact on the pretext of celebrating their mother's opening of a branch.
Not to mention Jiang Duoduo. Not only did she not ask for a red envelope from her mother, she even refused to ask for the rent and renovation fees for opening two branches.
He even called it an investment in Chen Shuyue, saying that his mother would be the big boss of Xiyan Breakfast Shop and he would be the second in command.
"You kid... you've been so eloquent since you were little. If you want to give money to your mother, just tell her directly. And you're acting like a second-in-command."
"Being the second-in-command at a breakfast shop requires not only the ability to collect money but also the ability to serve food. Can you make dumplings or fry potstickers? If you can't do anything, then I don't want you as my second-in-command."
"Alas... your mother is such a good cook, how come I can't pass on my cooking skills to you? Luckily Xiao Luo can cook, otherwise what would you two do after you get married?"
Chen Shuyue was just talking about the breakfast shop, but suddenly changed the subject and started talking about Jiang Duoduo's marriage.
She said Jiang Duoduo will be 25 after the Chinese New Year, and that when she was 25, her eldest son was already 6 years old.
"Mom, what era is this now? There are so many people in their thirties and forties who don't get married. Let's just live happily. We can talk about marriage later!"
What the hell is this about being pressured into marriage for no apparent reason? Is 25 really old?
"Mom, I just remembered that I have a meeting at the company this afternoon, so I'll be leaving first!"
Jiang Duoduo picked up the small bag on the cash register, found an excuse to go to a meeting, and slipped away.
"No... didn't you say you had nothing to do today when we were having dinner? Why are you suddenly having a meeting?"
"Ah...you kid, why don't you know how to be nervous!"
"If you don't get a man like Xiao Luo, who has a good family background and good character, legally and quickly, you'll be hard to find in the future."
Chen Shuyue stood in front of the cashier counter and sighed deeply as she watched Jiang Duoduo disappear into the distance.
……
In order to avoid Chen Shuyue's continued urging for marriage when she returned home at night, Jiang Duoduo moved directly to Jingsheng Jiayuan.
Since the breakfast shop opened two branches, Chen Shuyue basically stops going to the main store on Qinfen Road.
The entire task was handed over to Jiang Lai Di and Chen Wang Lai.
The South Suburbs store hired a store manager with good skills. In addition, the customer flow there was not as large as that of the North Suburbs store, so Chen Shuyue basically spent her working hours at the North Suburbs store every day.
For this reason, she and Jiang Duoduo moved to Sunset Villa.
The main reason is that this place is close to Chen Shuyue’s breakfast shop in the northern suburbs, and Jiang Duoduo originally reserved an annex building at Sunset Villa that is not open to the public.
In order to accompany her mother, Jiang Duoduo has been living in the Sunset Villa for some time.
If Chen Shuyue hadn't suddenly acted out of the ordinary today and urged her to get married, Jiang Duoduo wouldn't have come to live in Jingsheng Jiayuan alone.
After all, living with Ms. Chen Shuyue, I can have a delicious and hearty dinner at home every night.
Although the food here is plentiful, the takeout is never as delicious as the food my mother cooks.
Jiang Duoduo was thinking about what takeout to order in the evening when the elevator door on the first floor opened.
Then two men and three women rushed in, all looking fierce.
Especially the middle-aged woman wearing gold and silver, her face was as green as a green light. Jiang Duoduo just looked up at her, and the woman glared at Jiang Duoduo with resentful eyes.
Seeing them press the elevator button for the 4th floor, Jiang Duoduo wondered what the relationship was between these people and Yuqing?
"Damn, Zhang Weimin is really good at finding a place! I want to see what his expression will be when he sees us."
"Who cares what expression he has! I'll definitely beat him up so hard that he can't make any facial expressions!"
The two men are one tall and one short, and their arm muscles are well-developed. It is obvious that they exercise regularly.
At this moment, he was rubbing his hands in the elevator, as if he was looking for someone to fight.
"Alright! Stop talking! There's someone else in the elevator! The security in this complex is pretty tight, and the people living there are all well-off. Let's not call the security guards before we even do anything."
Jiang Duoduo just glanced at the two men, and one of the women looked at her very vigilantly.
With a crisp ding sound, the elevator door on the fourth floor opened and five people hurried out of the elevator.
The more Jiang Duoduo looked, the more she felt something was wrong. These people looked like they were going to cause trouble for Yuqing and Zhang Weimin.
Should I call Yuqing first and ask her to call the police if anything happens?
There was another crisp ding sound, and Jiang Duoduo arrived at the fifth floor.
After she walked out of the elevator, she took out her cell phone and called Yuqing.
Jiang Duoduo has been busy recently and hasn't lived in Jingsheng Jiayuan for several months, so naturally she has less contact with Yuqing.
beep...beep...beep...
The call went through but no one answered.
"Is there really anything wrong?"
Jiang Duoduo threw her bag on the sofa and felt a little worried when she heard the busy tone on her phone.
But then she thought, there is a security room at the entrance of Jingshengjiayuan Community, and there is an access control system downstairs in their building. These people will definitely not be able to enter the fourth floor without the consent of the owner.
Thinking about it this way, Jiang Duoduo felt that she was worrying too much. There weren't so many bad people in the world!
Maybe what these people said in the elevator was just a joke!
After Jiang Duoduo laughed at herself, she sat on the sofa with her phone and ordered takeout.
Soon, she ordered herself a crab pot and a bowl of rice.
While waiting for the takeaway, Jiang Duoduo couldn't help but wonder why these people went to the fourth floor in such a ferocious manner.
