Chapter 415 - She, too, gave him a peck on his cheek.
It was a nice and sunny day and also the day of East Wind Restaurant’s grand opening.
Firecrackers were not allowed back then so they could only borrow a gong and rang it a few times as a celebratory act.
Luckily, Tong Xuelu had her workers informed the customers that they would be moving a week ago and the two restaurants were not that far away. As such, many of their returning customers came over at noon.
In addition to their returning customers, the Wei and the Su families also came over with their family members to show their support.
Su Yueshen, “As our president would always say, heroes are right in front of us. Manager Tong certainly is the living testimonial of a female hero and also a role model for the youth!”
Tong Xuelu smiled and said, “Oh, you are too nice, Vice Director Su. You are the true modern time role model!”
Being able to become the vice director of the Revolutionary Committee, for certain Su Yueshen had a lot of future ahead of him.
Many of the patrons recognized Su Yueshen and their eyes widened.
No wonder Tong Xuelu was able to become the manager of a top tier restaurant at her young age. Just look at the kind of network that she had!
Xiao Jiu held Tong Mianmian’s hand and said in his milky voice, “Big Sister Mianmian, how come you never come visit? I waited and waited for you. I missed you so much!”
Tong Mianmian signed like an adult. “My Second Brother caught chicken pox. Big Sister wouldn’t let us go anywhere.”
Looking at how pitiful she seemed, Xiao Jiu leaned in and gave her a kiss on her cheek.
When Tong Xuelu saw that, she quickly walked over and separated the two. “Xiao Jiu, you two are both young but boys and girls are different. You can’t kiss Mianmian like that in public.”
It was not good to have such hooligan acts at his young age.
Xiao Jiu blinked and looked baffled. “But Daddy kisses Mommy like that at home. Why can’t I do the same?”
FOOM!
Su Yueshen’s face turned shrimp red after he overheard that as he walked over.
Gu Yilan’s face turned red as well. She was too embarrassed to look at anyone.
Tong Xuelu didn’t know what to make of that. “That’s not the same. Your Mommy and Daddy are a married couple. You are Mianmian are good friends. That’s why you can’t do that in the future. Do you understand?”
“Okay, I got it.” Xiao Jiu nodded docilely. He then added, “Does that mean I can do that after Mianmian and I are a couple?”
Tong Xuelu, “……”
His body hair had not grown out yet and he was already thinking about getting himself a wife?
Tong Mianmian had no idea that she had been taken advantage of. Now that she heard what her Big Sister had said, she had an inkling that she had been taken advantage of.
As such, she shuffled forward on her short little legs and said, “Xiao Jiu, you are not allowed to kiss me but you did. So I have to retaliate.”
After that, she, too, leaned into Xiao Jiu and gave him a peck on his cheek.
Tong Xuelu, “……”
Nevermind. Why did she even bother?
Both the Su and the Wei families busted out laughing.
Luckily both kids were still young and nobody gave that too mch thought.
The restaurant had been super busy since its grand opening. It was a bummer that Wen Rugui was not able to take time off to visit.
The two lovebirds could only stay in touch through the phone.
Tong Xuelu’s workload had gone up by a lot since their move to the new restaurant.
She needed to go shop for ingredients and manage the workers every day. The translator would be returning to visit his family next month and she need to prepare for that.
Luckily her hard work was also well compensated. Her salary had gone from 50 yuan a month to 70 yuan a month.
On top of that, she was also the third chef of the restaurant. Her total monthly salary was 100 yuan.
At this day and age, 100 yuan a month was a lot of month. She could comfortable support the Tong siblings on her salary alone.
