Zheng Yujie asked in surprise: "Where has she gone?"
The aunt said: "She found a job and went to work."
"She got a job? What job?"
"I said I was helping the restaurant," the aunt replied.
"Help the hotel?" Zheng Yujie frowned: "Where is she helping?"
Auntie said: "I don't know either."
Zheng Yujie understood that in a culture like Liu Xiaoya's, it was difficult to find a better job. She could only work as a waiter in a hotel, which not only earned some wages but also included food and accommodation, so she would leave his home.
But he also knows that the waiters in the hotel are very tired and hard-working. They wake up early and go to bed late, and they still get angry. The boss, chef, customers, and colleagues all get along well with each other.
Zheng Yujie and his cousin Gong Yunche jointly opened a large hotel. Although he did not work in the hotel, he often saw the waiters being scolded from time to time. Thinking of this, he became worried about Liu Xiaoya.
In his impression, Liu Xiaoya was very kind-hearted, but just because she was so kind, she might be more easily offended.
Moreover, she knew nothing and was a bit clumsy. When he thought that she was almost killed in a car explosion because she was throwing bags for others, he couldn't help but worry about her. It was really difficult for such a woman to stop him from worrying about her.
Disaster.
Zheng Yujie planned to find Liu Xiaoya to see how her working environment was. If it didn't work, he would ask her to stop working.
But he didn't know where Liu Xiaoya was working and had no way to find her.
One afternoon a few days later, Zheng Yujie was about to go out after lunch when Liu Xiaoya suddenly came.
Zheng Yujie quickly pulled her in and asked: "Xiaoya, why didn't you tell me that you left?"
Liu Xiaoya said: "I left in a hurry that day and didn't have time to tell you. Today I came here specifically to say thank you for taking care of me these days."
Zheng Yujie said: "Why are you so polite? Where did you do it?"
"East Street."
"What's the name of the hotel?"
"Come back later."
Zheng Yujie secretly noted it down and asked: "How is it? Are you used to it?"
Liu Xiaoya nodded: "It's okay."
Zheng Yujie said uneasily: "If you're not used to it, don't do it. Find someone else."
Liu Xiaoya said: "It's okay, I can do it."
Liu Xiaoya saw Zheng Yujie about to go out and said, "I'm going back to the hotel and preparing things for the afternoon."
Zheng Yujie nodded, Liu Xiaoya waved his hand to him and walked out. Zheng Yujie chased him out and shouted: "Xiaoya, you can come and live here at any time."
Liu Xiaoya turned around, smiled and nodded: "Okay!"
Watching Liu Xiaoya's retreating figure, Zheng Yujie felt a little worried in his heart.
A few days later, Zheng Yujie got up in the morning and went to East Street, looking for a restaurant called "Come Back Again".
After searching for a while, Zheng Yujie saw that this was a snack bar.
Zheng Yujie walked in. The restaurant was not big, with only a dozen tables, but it had a full range of varieties, including xiaolongbao, wontons, dumplings, jelly, cold noodles, spicy hotpot, hot and sour noodles, and various porridges, white rice porridge,
Black rice porridge, preserved egg and lean meat porridge, peanut porridge... there were many customers, and the waiters ran in and out, making it a busy scene.
The waiters were all wearing white work clothes. Zheng Yujie looked at it for a long time and didn't see Liu Xiaoya. He was wondering, didn't she work here?
Zheng Yujie ordered wontons and sat down to wait. Suddenly he heard someone shouting: "Xiao Liu! Come out and collect the bowls! Come on, hurry up! The table is full of bowls!"
