Fan Shengmei has long since given up hope on her eldest brother. He has not bothered her for more than a year. For Fan Shengmei, it is already a dream, and she feels relaxed and comfortable as never before.
Fan Shengmei also wants to maintain the marriage between her eldest brother and her eldest sister-in-law. After all, it is not easy for her eldest brother to get married at such an old age, but she is powerless now. Besides, her eldest brother and sister-in-law have divorced.
Even if she tried to talk, nothing would change.
Despite this, Fan Shengmei took leave and rushed back to Nantong. After all, such a big thing suddenly happened at home, and she needed to go back to comfort her parents. As soon as she walked into the Fan family's house, she saw her mother with a surprised look on her face.
"Mom, I'm back." Fan Shengmei looked at the mother in front of her with a complex expression that she loved and hated at the same time.
"Shengmei, you are finally back." Mother Fan pulled her daughter back in surprise.
"Mom, where is my eldest brother?" Fan Shengmei quickly showed a confused expression.
"I'm on a business trip. Your brother is very busy at work right now."
"Business trip? What is my brother's job now?" Fan Shengmei looked at her mother in surprise.
"I don't know! Your brother never discusses work matters when he comes home." Mother Fan shook her head in confusion.
At this time, Fan Shengmei saw her eldest nephew. Seeing the tiger-like appearance of little Lei Lei, she immediately ran over and hugged him in surprise. Then she teased little Lei Lei in her arms and said, "Little Lei Lei, do you miss your aunt?
"
"aunt......"
"Haha, little Leilei is so good! He is such a good boy for my aunt, but please don't imitate your father!"
"Shengmei, what are you talking about? Is your brother sorry for you?" Mother Fan on the side was a little unhappy when she heard Fan Shengmei arrange her son.
"Mom, your son is a treasure, right?" Fan Shengmei quickly smiled bitterly to comfort her angry mother.
"Shengmei, since you are back, you should quickly go to your sister-in-law's house to see if she can remarry your eldest brother." Seeing that her daughter was back, Fan's mother ordered her daughter.
"Mom, I'm only taking three days off this time. Can you let me have a good rest?" Fan Shengmei said in a dumbfounded voice after hearing her mother's instructions.
"Shengmei, do you have any rest? It's so comfortable to sit in the office every day. Go and ask your sister-in-law!"
Under Fan's mother's cruel urging, Fan Shengmei reluctantly came to Zhao's house. Zhao Qianzi was not surprised at all that her former sister-in-law came to see her, "Shengmei, are you back?"
"Well, sister-in-law, what's going on between you and my elder brother?" Fan Shengmei looked at her former sister-in-law with a complicated expression.
"Shengmei, I can't stand an unresponsive marriage. I've really had enough with your brother." When she mentioned that failed marriage, Zhao Qianzi was trembling with anger.
"Sister-in-law, you should think a little bit about Lei Lei, right? It's really pitiful for him to lose his mother's love at such a young age." Fan Shengmei played the emotional card towards Zhao Qianzi.
"Shengmei, don't worry, your brother is very capable now and will definitely find another mother for Lei Lei." Zhao Qianzi said mockingly, unmoved.
"Sister-in-law, I really didn't expect that you and my brother would have such a big conflict." Looking at the unmoved Zhao Qianzi, Fan Shengmei showed a wry smile.
"Shengmei, you will never understand. The thought of wearing a blindfold and looking like a dead fish makes me tremble with rage."
"Well?"
The last time she heard Zhao Qianzi complaining about her eldest brother's special habits on the phone, Fan Shengmei thought it was just a joke. Today, she listened to Zhao Qianzi's words in person again. Coupled with Zhao Qianzi's painful expression, Fan Shengmei also thought it was a joke.
Brother is going too far. This is simply not something a normal person can endure.
Fan Shengmei returned to Fan's house helplessly, and then shook her head at Fan's mother who looked expectant. She saw that Fan's mother was obviously disappointed, "Hey! It's not easy to marry your brother a daughter-in-law. I didn't expect it to be so fast.
It’s like a chicken flying egg.”
"Mom, my brother is already an adult in his thirties, so stop worrying about him." Fan Shengmei was also angry at her elder brother's misbehavior.
"Shengmei, what you said is very light. When you have a child of your own, you will understand my mentality."
Fan Shengmei only had three days to return to Nantong, so of course she wanted to meet her old classmate Zheng Song, and Zheng Song readily accepted Fan Shengmei's invitation, and then they went to the "Fan Lou" head office together.
"Zheng Song, the environment of this hot pot restaurant is good!" Fan Shengmei looked around with a smile.
"Fan Shengmei, don't you know?" Hearing Fan Shengmei's tone, Zheng Song looked at Fan Shengmei in surprise.
"Ah? What do I know?" Fan Shengmei was at a loss when asked by Zheng Song.
"Fan Shengmei, this "Fan Lou" is opened by your brother Fan Shengtang."
"What? This is impossible!" Fan Shengmei's eyes widened in surprise.
"Really! Although I don't know the specific reason, he did open "Fan Lou"."
"Zheng Song, now that you say this, I remember that my mother said that my brother only contributed his own efforts and did not need to contribute any funds."
"No way! How could such a good thing happen?" After hearing Fan Shengmei's explanation, Zheng Song also became a little envious, and then introduced Fan Shengmei to the situation of "Fan Tower", "Shengmei, you may not know yet.
Now "Fan Lou" is very famous throughout Jiangsu, and many investment companies are begging to cooperate with "Fan Lou"."
"Ah? My brother is so lucky!"
Fan Shengmei has also seen the world in Greater Shanghai. Looking at the hot traffic of "Fan Lou", as well as the excellent service and quality of dishes, she also knows what kind of broad prospects this hot pot restaurant has, and she can't help but feel for her eldest brother.
When she became unfamiliar, this was no longer the "Adou" in her own impression.
...
By the time Suning returned to Nantong from a business trip, Fan Shengmei had already left Nantong and returned to Shanghai. This business trip had achieved great results. Suning also felt proud when looking at the "Fan Lou" hotpot restaurants in other cities.
According to Suning's catering business plan, when "Fan Lou" opens across the country, it can start to open "Fan Lou" catering factories, and then build "Fan Lou" into a well-known brand, and completely sell Fan Lou's catering products.
to the whole country.
Not long after Suning returned to Nantong, she received a call from Fang Jie, the new manager of the "Fan Lou" store, saying that the Health Supervision Office suddenly came to inspect the house, and it was also broadcast live on "Health Supervision and Observation", and she wanted to ask Suning what she should do.
Deal with this matter.
"Fang Jie, please try your best to cooperate with all the requirements of the health supervision. I will rush to the main store immediately." Suning ordered Fang Jie on the phone.
"Yes! Mr. Fan."
Suning was a little surprised about the health supervision issue, but was not too worried, because the main focus of its "Fan Lou" is health quality, and it is also the top priority during the training of "Fan Lou" employees.
Seeing that her son had just come back from a business trip, and then ran out again after answering a phone call, Fan's mother said with some distress, "Shengtang, why are you so busy? You have to leave again as soon as you come back?"
"Dad, Mom, an important customer suddenly came to the store, and I need to go there to greet him in person." Suning said casually.
After dealing with Fan's father and Fan's mother for a few words, Suning went downstairs and drove straight to the "Fan Lou" main store. It was the time to pick up customers at 11 or 12 o'clock, and many customers were watching the excitement regardless of eating. Suning
I also saw a camera filming there, and a beautiful woman in uniform was talking and explaining.
Suning did not rush up immediately, but carefully observed from the side. He found that it was indeed an accidental incident, and it did not seem like someone was deliberately targeting him. Suning then relaxed.
Looking at the female host chatting in front of the camera, who looked to be in her thirties or forties at most, and the brochure on her uniform was at the level of inspector or above, Suning realized that the woman in front of her was definitely not simple.
What Suning is most confident about his "Fan Lou" is not the taste, but the hygiene issue that is most easily ignored in the catering industry. Suning sometimes wonders if he has severe mysophobia, but he did not expect to get an unexpected surprise today.
happiness.
Live programs such as "Health Supervision and Observation" rely on the sense of conflict between the scene and the standard to make the audience and catering practitioners startle and pay attention. But looking at the increasingly surprised expression of this beautiful female host, Suning
But I couldn't help but feel a little happy.
"Hello, leader! I am Fan Shengtang, the general manager of "Fan Lou". I welcome all leaders to come over for inspection and supervision." Suning walked up with a smile on his face.
When the female host saw the smile on Suning's face, she still felt a little surprised. After all, restaurant owners who were inspected by the health live broadcast rarely smiled. Thinking about the textbook-level hygiene situation she just saw, the beautiful female host understood
I can see the pride in this smile.
"Mr. Fan, hello! The sanitary conditions of your "Fan Building" are at the textbook level. Thank you very much for setting an example for the audience and other catering practitioners." The female host also had to admire her.
"The leader's words are serious. When I started running restaurants, I demanded that hygiene should be stronger than taste, so we at "Fan Lou" have always paid great attention to hygiene issues." Suning boasted without being modest at all.
"Well, you "Fan Lou" did a great job."
"Thank you for your hard work, leaders. This is our fan building's ordering phone number. If any leader needs a meal in the future, just call this number and we will definitely arrange the best dining experience for you." At this time, Suning quickly took out the printed
Holding the business card with his personal phone number, he personally handed it to everyone who came for the health inspection.
Seeing other colleagues taking the business card in confusion, the female host also took the business card in surprise, and then looked at Suning meaningfully, "Mr. Fan, thank you."
"You're welcome! You all may become our "Fan Lou" guests. This is what all our employees should do."
...
For Fan Shengmei, her brother's success only made her a little surprised. She then thought that her brother was lucky enough to meet a big boss, so she didn't take his matter to heart.
"Sister Fan, I can't hold on anymore in Shanghai. I'm leaving Shanghai and going back to my hometown." Because Fan Shengmei is the "second landlord" of this house, her roommate needs to say hello before leaving.
"What? Pingping, what can you do when you go back to your hometown now?" Fan Shengmei looked at her roommate in front of her in surprise.
"Sister Fan, my hometown is a small county in Anhui. My parents have asked someone to find me a stable job." The female roommate named Pingping explained with a smile.
"Hey! That's fine! Small counties don't have the pressure here in Shanghai. You still have half a month's rent this month, and I'll refund it to you soon."
"Thank you, Sister Fan. I would like to treat you and Lili to a meal tonight, which can be regarded as a chance for us to get to know each other." It is also Pingping and Lili's luck to meet a "second landlord" like Fan Shengmei.
"Okay! Then I will refund the rent to you first, so that you won't have money to pay for food." Fan Shengmei said jokingly to Pingping.
"Sister Fan, Lili, can I treat you to hot pot? I heard that a very good hot pot restaurant has recently opened in Shanghai." At this time, Pingping suggested to Fan Shengmei and Lili.
"Ah? What's so delicious about the hot pot? How about I come and treat you." Fan Shengmei thought it was because Pingping was reluctant to spend money, so she suggested with a smile.
"Sister Fan, the business of this "Fan Lou" hotpot restaurant is very booming. It just so happened that my colleague gave me a coupon. Can I use it before I leave Shanghai?" Seeing that Fan Shengmei had some misunderstandings, Pingping quickly became nervous.
explained.
"Fan Lou?" Fan Shengmei was so surprised that she almost bit her tongue.
"Fan Lou? I've also heard of this hot pot restaurant. I heard that the taste and hygiene are very good." Lili, who was silent at the side, also said with a smile.
"That's right! When I was watching short videos some time ago, I also saw a live broadcast platform of "Health Supervision and Observation", which had information about the health situation of the "Fan Lou" main store in Nantong. The health supervisors all said "Fan Lou"
Her hygiene is textbook level." Pingping explained to Fan Shengmei with a smile. After all, she couldn't let others think she was doing it to save money.
"Huh? I've also eaten "Fan Lou" in Nantong. Although the taste is pretty good, it's not as exaggerated as you said, right?" Fan Shengmei felt a little unbelievable.
"Sister Fan, "Fan Lou" has a good reputation now. After all, there are fewer and fewer people who are serious about catering."
"Okay! Seeing as what you said is so good, let's go eat "Fan Lou" hot pot, but this time I have to be the one to treat you." Seeing that her two roommates were so insistent, Fan Shengmei just said
He smiled and agreed, but she rushed to pay the bill.
"Ah? Sister Fan, I agreed to treat you." Pingping quickly refused.
"Haha, Pingping, have you forgotten my last name? Just think that "Fan Lou" is owned by my family."
"Haha, thank you, Sister Fan." Pingping and Lili thought Fan Shengmei was just joking, so they didn't take it too seriously.
