It was May and Lao Tan was practicing quietly in the mountains without any disturbance.
Life outside the mountains continued as always. Zhou Xiaomei moved forward step by step according to Lao Tan's plan. The five major districts acted at the same time to comprehensively improve the quality of dishes and services, pay close attention to management, and improve operations. Results were achieved at the beginning of three months.
The overall efficiency has been comprehensively improved.
After the New Year, Lao Tan never showed up. At first, no one noticed, and no one said anything, so everything was calm.
In early April, someone discovered the anomaly and started talking about it.
The discussion originated in middle management circles.
Everyone in the senior management circle knew that Lao Tan had cancer and was recuperating. They would not discuss it, they were all concerned and thinking about him, hoping that Lao Tan would overcome the disease and recover as soon as possible.
These people were all brought out by Lao Tan himself. Some were his apprentices and some were his brothers. As Lao Tan was recovering from his illness, they naturally actively cooperated with Zhou Xiaomei and took the initiative to work. They did even better than when Lao Tan was there.
What the top management knows, the middle management can also know. The middle management is brought out by the top management and is their right-hand man, not to mention it is difficult for people to keep secrets.
Just because the senior management doesn't discuss it doesn't mean that the middle management doesn't discuss it either. It's not that they don't respect Lao Tan, it's that they don't have the same relationship with Lao Tan as the senior management does. It's inevitable.
There were some discussions, some good and some bad. The good news was that Lao Tan had early-stage gastric cancer and it was nothing serious. He would definitely recover if he took good care of himself. He would still be the executive director and lead everyone forward.
The bad thing is that Lao Tan must be very serious. I heard that he vomited blood during chemotherapy, and now he is undergoing conservative treatment. It is not certain how long he can live. He is being raised at home.
When they talk about employees, they naturally know that it hurts those who are close to them, but it is just news to those who are not close to them.
The so-called strangers are the new employees who have arrived in the past two years. Most of them have never met Lao Tan. They only know that there is such a director. They have heard about him, good and bad, and they don’t have much impression. Now we have to
Having cancer is just news. After two days, you will forget what you should do.
The ones who can feel the pain are the old employees, especially those who have been cared for by Lao Tan. They are very sad, worried and worried.
For example, Xiaohui, Xiaolong and his wife didn't believe it was true at first, and almost started fighting with the person who said this. They didn't believe it until Yanhua told them personally.
Xiaohui has always regarded Lao Tan as her father. It can be said that without Lao Tan, she would not be where she is now.
It was Lao Tan who took out all the money he had without any hesitation when she and her mother were begging on the streets without any friends, and this was the turning point in the lives of mother and daughter.
When Xiao Hui's mother fell ill, Lao Tan took the lead in donating money without hesitation, so that Xiao Hui had money to treat her mother. Although her mother passed away in the end, she was grateful to Lao Tan.
Lao Tan took care of her mother's funeral. After taking care of her mother's funeral, she worried about her own marriage until she had a family and children. Sometimes she thought that even if her biological father was alive, he might not be able to do this.
It's so lucky.
When Lao Tan got sick, she wanted to take care of him like a daughter. She didn't care how many days, otherwise she would feel bad and her conscience would be hard to bear.
Yanhua said no, Lao Tan's condition has been stabilized and she is doing very well, otherwise she would not be so stable and would have passed away long ago. Xiaohui hugged Yanhua and cried, extremely sad.
Also as sad as her was Yingzi.
Yingzi didn't know about Lao Tan's situation through other people's comments. Wang Hong told her directly.
She asked Wang Hong: "Is my brother's illness serious?"
Wang Hong told the truth: "I can't say for sure, but I'm sure it's in the early stages and it's under control."
Yingzi asked again: "Is my brother in the hospital now or at home?"
Wang Hong said: "I'm not even here. I went to the mountains alone, saying I was recuperating there."
Yingzi didn't speak for a long time, and her mask quickly became wet with tears.
Wang Hong advised: "Don't worry, he's fine------"
Yingzi stopped crying and said: "My brother must be fine. He is blessed with good fortune------he is a good person------I will burn incense for him when I go home------"
After Gu Yi and Sister Wang returned to Suzhou, Sister Wang went to the courtyard one night and told Yaru, Li Shuang and Xiao Gao about Lao Tan's situation in Yaru's cabin.
Li Shuang couldn't believe it was true and said, "It's impossible. How could my master get cancer?" Then he asked, "Sister Wang, where is my master? I'm going to see him."
Sister Wang said: "Your brother Gu and I just came back from him------"
She told Lao Tan's current situation in detail, and then the three of them believed her.
No one spoke for a while in the hut, and the atmosphere was a bit depressing.
After a while, Yaru spoke. She first called Sister Wang, then turned her eyes to Li Shuang and Xiao Gao, and said, "You three should go back first. I feel uncomfortable and want to be alone for a while."
Li Shuang and Xiao Gao were equally uncomfortable. Although Sister Wang said nothing was wrong, they had not seen it with their own eyes and could not rest assured.
Sad people don't want to stay with sad people, that would make them even sadder.
Li Shuang and Xiao Gao returned. Sister Wang wanted to comfort Yaru, but couldn't find any comforting words for a while, so she stepped forward to hug Yaru and turned away.
Yaru was alone in the room. She went to bed quietly, put her head on the pillow, pulled the quilt and hugged her in her arms, covered her face and cried silently------
She missed Lao Tan very much, more than ever.
She muttered in her heart: Lao Tan, don't let anything happen to you, don't------I miss you so much--
Xiaofeng's illness was completely cured. After learning about Lao Tan's situation, she talked to Zhou Xiaomei. Zhou Xiaomei transferred her back to Changsha as an operations supervisor. This was her own request. She was familiar with the Changsha market, quick to work, and could also
Take Liu Yang with you.
After all, Liu Yang is young and has little experience. Being a regional manager is a bit difficult, which is something Zhou Xiaomei worries about. The four stores in Changsha are all direct-operated stores, which are as important as the provincial capital, so there must be an experienced old man in charge.
Of course, there are also reasons for Hao Nansheng.
Hao Nansheng originally did not want Xiaofeng to continue working. When Xiaofeng told Lao Tan's condition, he expressed his support and wanted to find experts to treat Lao Tan.
Xiaofeng stopped him and told him that Lao Tan was in a good situation now, so don't bother him for now, and it wouldn't be too late to find him if something bad happens.
In this way, Xiaofeng is in charge of Changsha, cooperating with Liu Yang and Qin Tsunami, and the situation is very stable.
We still remember Baolitu. After learning about Lao Tan's situation, he approached his sister Su Yaqi Qige and said that he would take care of Lao Tan.
Su Ya said: "You can take care of everything, go to work honestly and do your job well."
Bao Litu said: "I want to go, otherwise I'll be upset and I won't be able to go to work."
"You won't cause enough trouble if you go."
"I won't cause trouble."
"You're not allowed to go then, just work hard in the store."
"------"
Su Ya thought her brother was just talking, but she didn't know that his brother didn't go to work the next day and packed his bags to go to Daqingshan.
Although Baolitu is a reckless and stubborn man, his heart is pure and he knows who has been kind to him and he will repay them with actions.
He didn't hire a car to take him into the mountains for the simple reason that no taxi driver was willing to take him.
The rude man lost his temper, picked up his bag and walked on foot, striding away like a meteor.
Fortunately, after entering the mountain, he met a kind-hearted pilgrim who came to offer incense and took him to the place of Qingxiu.
Lao Tan was very surprised when he saw Baolitu. He never expected him to come. When Baolitu explained his intention, Lao Tan was very moved and did not ask him to go back immediately, but stayed.
