The Northern Stories of Chef Lao Tan

Chapter 297 Tong Xin
When Zhou Xiaomei returned to Hohhot, the first thing she did was to transfer Mulan to the Beijing executive class to study, and then appointed a new reserve store manager.

Wang Shulan returned to Hohhot with her. After arriving in Hohhot, she didn't rush to Baotou or Ordos, but went to Jining.

She wants to talk to Huang Lijuan, the owner of the Jining store, about cooperation.

Since she wants to focus on the development of Beijing, the store in Inner Mongolia needs someone to manage it. She needs to find a like-minded partner to run it together, so that she can fully let go.

The first thing she thought of was Huang Lijuan.Working with Huang Lijuan for two years, we know each other well and know that she is a person who does things, so I can trust her to take care of the restaurant.

In addition, Huang Lijuan is from Inner Mongolia, and people from this area are very good at running stores in this area.

Of course, this is cooperation, and cooperation requires giving up profits.To some extent, if the cooperation is successful, Wang Shulan is Aqiao's agent in Northwest District, and Huang Lijuan is her agent in Inner Mongolia.

The two talked very smoothly, and we will not elaborate on the details and profit sharing. In short, this is a win-win cooperation, and both parties benefit.

After the matter was settled, Huang Lijuan talked about a person, and we all know this person, the first store manager of the Jining store——Tong Xin.

Two years ago, Tong Xin left Ah Qiao to go to her cousin Zhou Yujun's. A few months later, she divorced her husband and became a single woman.

Her husband did not return to his hometown after the divorce, but returned to the Jining store, where he has been working, guarding the loneliness of a man after divorce.This is a very honest man. He is not good looking and has little ability. If he wants to talk about his advantages, he is good to his wife and responsible for the family. He is a qualified housewife.

There are many men like this around us. They don't earn money like successful men, and they can't be officials.

Such men have one thing in common, that is, they listen to their wives contentedly.All the money I earn is handed over without complaint or regret, and I live a simple and upright life with all my thoughts on my wife and children, and there is nothing wrong with it.

To be honest, a woman should be content with finding such a man, what do you want to live?Don't just ask for a smooth and safe weather.This kind of man can't earn money, but he can take care of his family and live a prosperous life.

Of course, putting him and Zhou Yujun together is more likely to be judged against each other.To be fair, this is just a different perspective of the competition. From the husband's perspective, he should be the winner, but Zhou Yujun can't.

Having said that, it still depends on what the woman thinks, and she can't keep her vanity, so she naturally rushes to high branches.

Tong Xin is vain, it can be said that she abandoned her husband and son and left with her cousin.Two years passed in a blink of an eye, the son returned from the army, instead of looking for his mother, he returned to his father in Jining, which was the greatest comfort for his father.

The plot of the story is surprisingly similar. Tong Xin followed in the footsteps of Wang Shulan, and sadly withdrew from Zhou Yujun's life, becoming a loner.

Only then did she remember that she still had a son, and a husband who loved her and his family like life. Although the family of three was not rich at that time, they were happy.

It's just that the feeling of happiness came too late. At that time, what I felt was my husband's uselessness and unsatisfactory life, and I thought that I should live a better life and pursue more things.

But the pursuit comes and goes, except that the people I meet are different from the occasions I go to, there is nothing advanced.To put it bluntly, people who wear a suit and tie do not necessarily have a clean heart. The magnificent lights are also full of filth.

The saddest thing is to feel what is abandoned, or the kind that no one sympathizes with.

In fact, there are many such women around us. If we look at them from a secular perspective, we will only criticize and accuse them, and they are not worthy of sympathy.But having said that, in real life, there is a chance to get acquainted with such people and become colleagues or friends.Or such people are our relatives, sisters, cousins, cousins——
What else to say but blame?Do you also ignore it like the world on both sides?
People's hearts are full of meat, and there is still sympathy, so we can only accept it without words when there is enough hatred, and hope that he will be a good person in the future.

The reason why Huang Lijuan mentioned Tong Xin was because Tong Xin left a very good impression on her when she was the store manager, and the three of them all worked in the store and got along well with each other.

Although Tong Xin's behavior made Huang Lijuan feel sorry and contemptuous, but it has not reached the point where she will no longer know each other in this life.

When Tong Xin came to see the child last month and knew that she had left Zhou Yujun to live alone, although there was a kind of self-inflicted suffering that deserved the quick relief of hatred, but when she saw the sadness and misery on her face, she couldn't help feeling pity again. with sympathy.

"Where does she live now?" Wang Shulan asked.

"Hohhot, a rented house." Huang Lijuan said.

"Oh--"

To be honest, Wang Shulan doesn't hate Tong Xin, but she doesn't like her either.It's just that Tong Xin reminded her of Zhou Yujun, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

"Lao Zhang (Tong Xin's ex-husband) has not been looking for him, and it seems that he can't let Tong Xin go. They have been married for many years—" Huang Lijuan said.

"If I had given up early, what kind of person would I be? I can't find a girl anywhere." Wang Shulan said.

"Don't you have a son? Seeing that she's not doing well, she has a little money in the past two years. I bought a car, so I guess it's okay."

"Isn't she a wine agent?" Wang Shulan asked.

"It's too late." Huang Lijuan said: "The agent mainly relies on Zhou Yujun, and she can't do it once the two of them are done."

"Zhou Yujun has never done anything good."

Huang Lijuan pursed her lips and smiled. She knew about Wang Shulan and Zhou Yujun's affairs, so she couldn't say anything.

After a while, "You mean to ask her to come back?" Wang Shulan asked, and immediately said: "You have to discuss this matter with Lao Tan, we can't interfere with the management—it's best to ask her to find Lao Tan herself."

"It's embarrassing to see what she meant—we didn't chat too much, and we didn't ask her what she planned. She came mainly to watch the children. The family of three had a meal and went back after dinner."

Wang Shulan said "Oh", frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said, "I guess she can still come to see the child—she can't find a job in Hohhot, and everyone she knows knows what's going on, and she can't be ashamed—— —It is also impossible to work in a restaurant like before—
Come chat with her again, tell her to find Lao Tan if you want to come back, don't make the decision.How to say, if it is possible, the family of three is still together, and it will be a family at any time—"

Huang Lijuan nodded seriously.

Wang Shulan had been thinking about Tong Xin on the way back from Jining, and planned to talk to Zhou Xiaomei after arriving in Hohhot, and listen to her opinion.
