Chapter 110 - Chapter 110: Buying a Refrigerator
However, Wang Hong, who was at the front desk, was not so lucky.
It was only her first day at work, but she had already seen what it meant to have a sea of people. Some came to buy snacks, and some came to eat. She had to be the cashier for all kinds of things. Sun Hao and Liang Jie in the shop were so busy that they did not even have time to breathe.
Although she was not in charge of everything in the shop except settling scores, Wang Hong still received Song Yao’s 25 yuan salary. Moreover, she lived in the same town as Gu Li. It would be unreasonable for her not to help.
After an entire afternoon, Wang Hong was already panting from exhaustion.
Gu Li poured a glass of water for her. “Song Yao’s aunt, it’s been too hard on you today. You can’t even handle it yourself, but you still have to help me work.”
Wang Hong was on the brink of tears. She felt that she might as well collect money obediently. Why did she get involved in this matter?
She drank the water in her cup. “Song Yao’s mother, your shop is so busy. Why didn’t you tell Yao to get a few more people to help? How can the few of you be able to cope?”
Gu Li smiled. “We’re already looking, but we’ve only recruited a total of three workers this month. It’s not easy to find them if there are too many people.”
“It shouldn’t be impossible to recruit people if you pay so much money a month, right?” Wang Hong muttered softly. Right on the heels of that, she seemed to have thought of something. “By the way, I have a distant cousin who can’t find a job. If you don’t mind, I’ll call her over to help.”
“Why would I despise her?” Gu Li smiled. “As long as she can work, I’ll give her any salary!”
Coincidentally, Song Yao had finished cooking and wanted to rest for a while. When she heard Gu Li and Wang Hong’s conversation, she smiled and said, “Then let her come over early. I’ll give her eight yuan a month. If she does a good job, I’ll increase it by four yuan. I’ll cover all the food and accommodation.”
She knew that Song Yao was generous. Wang Hong smiled and said, “Huh? By the way, Yao, there are so many ingredients in your shop.
Will it be bad if you can’t finish them all in a day?”
Song Yao frowned. Speaking of ingredients, she had planned to go to the furniture store to buy a refrigerator a few days ago. After all, she couldn’t keep asking Song Xiao to go back to the village to borrow ice cubes, right?
She smiled and said, “Mom, Aunt, I’m going out for a while. I won’t accompany you.”
Gu Li replied, “Then come back early!”
Song Yao returned to the kitchen and packed her things before midnight. She handed them to Song Xiao and went back to her room to change into a plain dress.
When Zuo Huo arrived, he was stunned by Song Yao!
Song Yao’s long hair reached her shoulders, and her light green slim-fit dress accentuated her exquisite figure. Her fair skin was fragile, and she didn’t look like a village girl, but like a delicate girl who had grown up in the city.
Even Song Xiao said, “Sister, are you going out on a date with Brother Zuo Huo today?”
Song Yao stuffed a rice flower pot into his hands. “Can’t you shut up even if you eat it?”
She smiled and said to Zuo Huo, “Come into the city with me later. I want to buy a refrigerator.”
Zuo Huo agreed without thinking.
Song Xiao interrupted, “Then are you going on a date after that? Can you bring me along?”
Zuo Huo frowned, feeling a little displeased.
His future brother-in-law was still young after all. He even had to follow his sister on a date. Was he worried that he would bully Song Yao, or did he just want to join in the fun?
Zuo Huo thought for a long time. It should be the latter.
Song Yao smiled and said, “Let’s go watch a movie after buying the fridge. Do you want to watch Last Night’s Lamp?”
Song Xiao had yet to go to the cinema to watch a movie, so he naturally agreed. “Okay! Then I’ll look for you at the department store after I deliver the goods!”
After Song Xiao left, Song Yao took the money to the department store.
A few days ago, she had earned another 6,000 yuan from collecting chestnuts. Including the 750 yuan she had given Aunt Su, Song Yao still had 5,250 yuan left. Coupled with the money she earned from selling lunch boxes today, it was enough to buy a refrigerator.
The two of them arrived at the furniture store. As soon as they entered, they were dazzled.
There were two types of refrigerators in the furniture store: domestic ones and imported ones.
Domestic refrigerators only cost a few hundred yuan, but the quality was not necessarily good. Imported refrigerators cost thousands of yuan, and they seemed no different from domestic refrigerators. The advantage was that they were durable.
Indeed, you get what you pay for.
However, since Song Yao had decided to buy a refrigerator, she definitely had to choose a good-quality refrigerator. The price didn’t matter. The most important thing was that it was durable and had a lot of space.
Seeing that Song Yao was still hesitating, the saleswoman took the initiative to step forward and say, “Do you want to buy a refrigerator?
Do you want me to introduce you to a few?”
Song Yao casually pointed at the green refrigerator beside her..
