Although the wedding of the two children, Xiaolong and Xiaohui, was not grand, it was very touching.
When the newlyweds kowtowed to the woman's parents under the command of the host, Xiaohui was filled with tears, knelt down on her knees, and sincerely kowtowed deeply to Lao Tan and Yanhua who were sitting above ------
In her heart, these two people are her parents, and she is their child.
Kind readers, let us bless this miserable girl and wish her a happy wedding, a life with the one she loves, and a long life.
Getting married is a major event in a person's life, which means saying goodbye to being single and starting a family life for two people.
Before getting married, it was love. Even if two people live together, what they talk about is more about feelings, like me, me, you and me.
After marriage comes marriage, where we face daily necessities such as daily necessities, as well as having children and raising the next generation.
This also includes supporting the elderly.
Although now young people get married and the elders of both parties hardly need to take care of them, or even take care of them in turn, children should fulfill their filial piety and not be led astray by bad phenomena, because everyone has to grow old.
Divorced people are afraid that watching the lively scenes of other people's marriages will remind them of their own misfortune.
Although Zhang Li had a smile on her face at the wedding, anyone could see that behind her smile she looked sentimental, unnatural, and even a little lonely.
As an old friend for many years, Lao Tan understood Zhang Li's mood, so he took the initiative to meet up for a few drinks after the wedding.
After leaving the hotel, Zhang Li said that she would go to her house to cook hot pot. This suggestion was first opposed by Lao Tan, because he unnaturally thought of the last time he couldn't help kissing and felt that it was not appropriate to go to Zhang Li's house.
Zhang Li knew what he was thinking. She curled her lips angrily and said, "I feel a little tired. It's comfortable to eat at home and it's casual. It's not as complicated as you think." Then she added, "Just stay with me.
I'm having a hard time today. Besides driving a car, I don't dare to drink."
Lao Tan agreed.
He felt that he was a little hypocritical, even prudish. He had been friends for many years. If something had happened a long time ago, how could he wait until today?
It seems that I think too much, have an unclean mind, and have dirty thoughts.
Zhang Li's house is as clean and tidy as hers. I don't know when a fish tank was installed in the living room. Two beautiful goldfish swim freely in it, adding some liveliness to the quiet home.
Lao Tan was sitting on the sofa drinking tea. Zhang Li went back to the bedroom to change clothes. When she came out, she was dressed in pink home clothes, with her towering breasts ready to come out, making people dizzy at the sight.
Lao Tan blushed a little and joked: "More tempting than a little girl."
"Are you greedy?" Zhang Li asked provocatively.
"Hurry up and wash the vegetables."
Zhang Li rolled her eyes charmingly, and then entered the kitchen.
In a matter of seconds, Zhang Li quickly prepared the hot pot. The dining table was filled with vegetables, mushrooms, meat rolls, sesame paste, fermented bean curd, chive flowers, chili oil, and a bottle of good white wine.
The two of them sat opposite each other and filled their glasses with wine.
"Old Tan, how come you don't want to come to my house as soon as you say it, and you can eat you?" Zhang Li said.
"It's not that I don't want to come, I'm afraid I can't control myself. I've never been able to resist beautiful women." Lao Tan said while mixing the seasoning for himself.
"Jingchao said it nicely." Zhang Li took the chive flowers, scooped out a small spoonful and put it into a bowl, and then said: "Didn't you have a good time with your first love in Hohhot?"
"No, I'm afraid I'll get angry. I'm going to talk about cleaning up every day, so why bother?"
"Humph, you can still be honest."
"I have a thief's heart but not a thief's courage——"
The hot pot is boiling, the attractive red oil spray is rolling, and the house is filled with fragrance.
"It's been a long time since I've had hot pot." Zhang Li said, adding spinach to the pot.
"When the weather is hot, everyone likes to eat barbecued skewers," Lao Tan said.
"I remember that it snowed heavily that winter, and we were at the Little Sichuan Shabu Shabu on your street. Now that place is gone -------" Zhang Li said with nostalgia.
"No, it's a high-rise building now. It's next to the subway station. I heard it's more than 10,000 yuan per square meter." Lao Tan said.
"Have hot pot and drink white wine. You drink quickly. I didn't wait for you to drink. You drank half the glass------"
"I heard that Xiangdong bought a house there. By the way, when will he and Qin Lili get married?"
"Gregorian year------"
Zhang Li put a piece of meat into Lao Tan's bowl, and then added enoki mushrooms into the pot.
"Xiaolong, Xiaohui, good boy, it would be great if all our employees were like them ------" Lao Tan said.
"I want to do good things. Nowadays, children have their own personalities. Parents can't control them, and neither can we. As long as they work well and don't cause trouble, that's enough."
"Is cultural training still held every month?"
"Going on, Lili is doing a good job, but I think the effect is very little. The teachers at school didn't teach her well, so it's all nonsense for us."
Lao Tan took a sip of wine, put down his glass and said, "After getting good school education and getting admitted to college, why do you still come to us? Let me tell you, sometimes you don't necessarily love learning or even dislike it when you pay tuition fees, but when it comes to earning
When you have money, you can get some training, and you might like to listen to the social university courses, because they are real and practical."
"That's a point." Zhang Li retorted.
"There is no distinction between education and distinction. Since people come to our home, we have the obligation to teach them how to learn well."
"Then there is still a way to do things that are not mutually exclusive."
"That's what I say, you can't talk to the employees. You are your own family when you come here, and you should treat each other as equals. Do you know that a restaurant's success depends on its reputation, and its failure depends on its reputation.
Many people say that the hotel died because of the broken capital chain, or because it couldn't keep up with the format, or because the management was chaotic and lacked management. On the surface, it seemed like this, and I thought so before.
In the past few years, especially this year, I have repeatedly studied that the death of a hotel starts from the inside. When the employees start to scold the hotel and the boss and are unwilling to work, the hotel is not far away from death.
The hotel is recognized by guests through its warm service and delicious food. It has a reputation, and then it spreads from one person to another, and gradually becomes popular. Good reputation is given by the guests, and it can make a restaurant popular.
Bad reputation is born from within. You don’t care at first, but you will notice it too late. To put it bluntly, when your own employees say that your home is not good, it is normal to waste, waste, cut corners, arrive late and leave early, delay work, and hurt your customers with sarcastic remarks.
Phenomenon, it would be strange if he didn't die.
Everyone wants to make the hotel bigger and stronger, or even turn it into a century-old enterprise that will last forever. However, if you don’t pay attention to the education, skills training, wages, living benefits, and growth of basic employees, not only will you not be able to retain good employees, but you will also be unable to retain outstanding ones.
I know how to change jobs, and when I leave, I will say: This restaurant will not last long, and sooner or later it will fail."
After Lao Tan finished speaking, he took a big sip of wine.
"I just kept saying it was pornographic." Zhang Li added with a smile.
"Absolutely." Lao Tan nodded, "Employees are the biggest cost of a company, and they are also the biggest wealth, and they create wealth. Good products are made, not only good raw materials mean good products. This is obvious.
No matter how good the process is, no matter how good the standards are, someone has to do it. As the saying goes, if you marry a chicken, you will follow the chicken, and if you marry a dog, you will follow the dog. The same goes for employees. If you train him and develop him, give him good treatment and development space, he will do it.
Live a long life and become one of your own, or else you will become someone else's wedding dress and die yourself.
If you think about it, it has little to do with the capital chain. If you can afford to open a restaurant, you will not be short of money. The main thing is the layout, mind and willingness. Invest more in employees and save less money for yourself. Don’t think of yourself as your boss, as you are no longer the same as your employees.
It’s not an employment relationship, but a partnership. Everyone makes money, so think of it this way.”
"Old Tan, I admire you more and more. Do you always think about these things all day long?" Zhang Li asked.
"What are you thinking about if you don't want to do this? Do the math. There are now 16 direct-operated stores and cooperative stores, nearly 500 people. 500 mouths waiting to eat and feed their families are all looking at you. Do you dare to relax? Take one step.
If you make all the mistakes, you will lose. It’s a lot of pressure.”
This was indeed the case. As the CEO, Lao Tan did not dare to relax at all. He kept in mind the situation of the entire company and he had to be responsible for the livelihood of 500 employees.
Now that we have formed a group, our future development will definitely be faster and further, the number of employees will continue to increase, and the burden on our shoulders will become heavier.
As a partner for many years, Zhang Li knew the pressure Lao Tan was under, so she took on as much work as possible to lighten his load.
Having said that, as an old friend for many years, she understands Lao Tan and the pain in his heart, and wants to stay with him more and use the tenderness of a woman to care, care and comfort him, because she loves this man deeply.
The two of them kept talking about work for a long time. They talked and discussed a lot. It was not until Zhang Li mentioned that she went to the hospital for a check-up that it turned into real life.
"You should understand me, why should I go to the hospital at this time? Besides, I don't have anything wrong with me, just high blood pressure." Lao Tan said.
"Then check and check. If you are sick, treat it. If you are not sick, don't worry." Zhang Li said.
Lao Tan laughed, picked up his wine glass, touched Zhang Li's glass, and said, "Sickness is also a heart disease. If you are in a good state of mind, you are not sick. Let's not talk anymore, come and drink."
Zhang Li picked up the wine glass, glanced at Lao Tan, and asked, "Do you really plan to sneak away? Don't tell Yanhua?"
"Say, why don't you tell me? Zhang Yu has mailed all the sheep, so I have to go. I won't die yet, I can be treated at any time."
"What are you talking about?" Zhang Li rolled her eyes, raised her glass, and then did it.
