Chapter 1446 - 1530: Food As Heaven Branches
Thankfully, the medicine had already been applied, and it covered the bloody smell on her body, but when she was eating noodles earlier, the wound on her tongue still hurt her terribly.
What should I do?
Given the current situation, what should I do?
Sitting in the noodle shop, Dong Huiying pondered carefully. Suddenly, she heard someone say...
"Isn’t this Sister Su? Are you back from picking up goods?"
"Yes, indeed!"
Sister Su was a woman in her thirties, with a sharp look. Dong Huiying instinctively looked outside the noodle shop and saw a line of carts parked outside. It was not quite spring yet, and the carts were covered with cotton quilts to keep out the cold, suggesting that they were loaded with something that couldn’t withstand freezing.
Sister Su, along with a few other women, sat down in the noodle shop. After ordering noodles, they started chatting with acquaintances.
It turned out that Sister Su was with a branch of the chain restaurant Food As Heaven under the Huizi Store, mainly responsible for procurement matters.
Sister Su lamented, "Recently, Cook Lin left, and we’re really short-handed there. I don’t know what to do. The shopkeeper is quite worried about it."
"Oh, I remember Food As Heaven’s benefits are pretty good. Third Master Liang from Huizi Store is a righteous man, and he’s really kind to his people, also offering generous pay."
"Exactly, but Cook Lin is getting old, and her daughter took her to Nanling to enjoy her retirement. She’s thinking the family isn’t short on silver, so she might as well enjoy playing with her grandchildren."
"So, have you found someone to take over for Cook Lin yet?"
"Not yet. You know, our shopkeeper treated her well, and she just left like that, which is a bit ungrateful. Fortunately, there’s more than one cook at the restaurant. Though we’re really short-staffed, we can barely manage."
Dong Huiying’s eyes lit up, then she deliberately lowered her voice, speaking in a heavy accent, "This sister, your surname is Su, right? Your restaurant is short of cooks? What a coincidence, back home, I’m also a cook. It’s not like Old Wang bragging about my own goods, my cooking is really good! But my hometown is a small place and doesn’t make much money, so I’m out here looking for opportunities!"
Sister Su was taken aback for a moment, then looked at this person who came without an invitation. This person seemed honest, with a big grin showing a mouthful of large white teeth, looking a bit simple and clumsy?
"I can’t decide on this. If you want to be a cook at our restaurant, you have to go through an interview with the shopkeeper first. Our restaurant is called Food As Heaven, and it has opened many branches in various places. You can ask around and you’ll know."
"Alright, Sister Su, I’m off, I’ll go ask around now!"
Sister Su couldn’t help but laugh, thinking this person looks over twenty, yet acts so carefree, and that accent is really amusing.
After leaving the noodle shop, Dong Huiying walked with a spring in her step and a sense of determination. She stopped a few passersby with her accent and asked for the address of Food As Heaven. In the city, Food As Heaven was quite famous, so she didn’t take many detours and soon arrived outside Food As Heaven’s door.
Standing at the entrance, she could smell a familiar aroma wafting through the air. This aroma was so familiar. Back then, Food As Heaven started in Taihang Town, and Dong Huiying herself had personally revised Food As Heaven’s recipes.
She looked up at the plaque of the restaurant, seeing the three words Food As Heaven, and in the lower right corner, there was a line of gilded characters, Huizi Store, with a square red seal engraved behind.
Huizi Store...
She couldn’t help but smile.
Shujun,
Whenever I see this Huizi Store, I think of you.
