Chapter 70 Recruiting Helpers; Xu Xi
Before I had time to wash the dishes, I ran out of dishes and chopsticks. In desperation, I had to pick up the basket to collect the dishes and go to the kitchen to wash them out.

The customer who had packed his meal and went to pay the bill did not see Gu Yu and said: "Master, why is no one collecting the money?"

When Yang saw that Gu Yu was not sitting in front of the counter to collect money, her heart skipped a beat: Could it be that she felt unwell and ran to the backyard by herself?
When she hurried to the backyard, she saw Gu Yu putting the washed bowls in the basket and preparing to lift them up. Yang was startled and ran over quickly, saying, "I'll come, I'll come, don't carry it blindly."

Gu Yu: "..."

Are you so anxious to carry a basket filled with dishes and chopsticks?

Yang walked up to Gu Yu and stretched out her hand to carry the basket. Gu Yu could not let her carry it alone, but she was told to help again.

Gu Yu said helplessly: "Mom, don't worry so much now. We are busy outside. Let's quickly carry the bowl and go out to help my aunt."

Yang turned sideways and looked at the long queue in front of the stall, and the two of them worked together to lift the bowl out and continue working.

Gu Yu started collecting money again. After the guests finished leaving, she inspected the piles of dishes and chopsticks on the table and the dirty ground, and frowned.

Gu Pan's family is now learning the craft from her family. For half a year, one or two people have been helping in the shop. After half a year, there are only three of them left.

What's more, there will be three more baby babies in the family at the beginning of the new year, and there are only one or two people left to work. It seems that recruiting people is imminent!

Speaking of recruiting people, when Gu Yu and the others were clearing away the dishes, a girl in coarse linen clothes wandered at the door looking a little timid and uneasy.

Mrs. Yang thought she was here for dinner, and said, "Daughter! The food this morning is sold out. Come back in the afternoon."

When Xu Xi saw Yang talking to her, she clenched her fists, took a deep breath and said, "My boss, I'm not here to eat. I want to ask, are you looking for helpers?"

Afraid of Mr. Yang's rejection, he hurriedly said, "I can do anything, such as collecting dishes, washing dishes, sweeping the floor, and doing laundry."

Yang: "..."

We had discussed hiring helpers before, but because we didn’t know what the situation was like in the fast food shop these past two days, the hiring of helpers has been put on hold until now.

This girl looks thin and small, and she doesn't know if she can endure the hardship of working.

After thinking about it, I decided to ask someone to go to the shop to ask about the situation and then decide whether to use it or not!

When Gu Yu saw Yang coming in with Xu Xi, Yang gave her a look, pointed to the dishes and chopsticks on the table and said, "Go help first, and I will decide whether to use you or not later. Of course, don't worry, we'll figure it out later." I don’t want you to be a helper, I will pay you today’s wages.”

Xu Xi was young, only thirteen or fourteen years old. She said "Okay" with a shy smile, and quickly followed up to clear the dishes.

Gu Yu secretly observed that the clothes the little girl was wearing obviously didn't fit her. She must have made them larger on purpose so that she could wear them for a few more years.

When it comes to work, he is nimble with his hands and feet. Whether he is wiping the table or sweeping the floor and washing dishes, he does his job in a decent manner.

After half an hour, the help was over. He called the person to the empty table and said, "Have you ever done any help work before?"

Xu Xi sat across from Gu Yu with an uneasy look on her face and said, "No, this is my first time looking for work."

Gu Yu saw her uneasiness and said, "You haven't done this before, so how old are you?"

"Sixteen years old."

Gu Yu: "?"

Sixteen years old, Xu Xi was thin and small. She thought she was only thirteen or fourteen years old, but she didn't expect that she was sixteen years old.

Seeing that Gu Yu was silent, Xu Xi seemed a little nervous, fearing that she would be rejected and repeated again: "I am at home, and I often work in the fields with my parents. Boss, I can really do anything. I beg you to keep me!" Gu Yu only paused for a few seconds, and the girl expressed her position again and again, saying: "Here I am, as you can see, my daily work is to clean the laundry, wipe the table, and sweep the floor. The first month's salary is 900 yuan, and the second month's salary is 900 yuan. Months, depending on your performance, if you do well, the salary will be increased to 1,800 yuan. In addition, three meals a day will be provided by the shop."

Xu Xi didn't expect that Gu Yu hired her, and the salary was half higher than that of the other restaurant she went to ask about, and food was included? He repeatedly promised that he would do a good job.

Next, Gu Yu asked her if she had a place to live in the county. Xu Xi said, "My home is in Hongshi Village. It only takes an hour to get to the county. I can go back and forth."

Red Rock Village? Why does this name sound so familiar?

Yang and Gu Pan, who were listening silently, looked at each other and said, "Is your village chief's name Xu Dazhu?"

Xu Xi wondered how Yang knew her great-grandfather, and said, "Xu Dazhu is my great-grandfather."

Gu Yu: "..."

Yang, Gu Pan: "..."

Good guy, my relationship is still with the niece of Village Chief Xu. Gu Yu took a serious look at the little girl and found that Xu Xi was somewhat similar to Xu Fan and said: "You shouldn't be, she is Xu Fan's sister!"

This time it was Xu Xi's turn to be surprised. How did the boss know her brother?
Seeing her surprised look, Gu Yu knew that he had guessed correctly, "Hongshi Village is a bit far away from the county seat. You are a girl and it is not safe to go back and forth. I have an extra house here. You go back today and tell your family that it will be official tomorrow." Come to work.”

Xu Xi was hit by a huge surprise before she asked Gu Yu why he knew her brother. She didn't know the relationship between the two of them until she finally walked out of the shop.

After jogging all the way home, I saw my mother limping and drying clothes in the yard. She said with joy on her face: "Mom, I'm back."

When Xu Xiuxiu saw her eldest daughter missing all day, she said angrily: "Go and get it. No one has been seen all day long."

Xu Xi told Xu Xiuxiu that she was looking for a job.

Xu Xiuxiu wiped her tears and said, "It means you have found a job."

Xu Xi said vividly: "I went to ask a restaurant before, and they said they didn't hire helpers. I walked forward and came across another restaurant. I went in and asked, and they asked me to work first. After that, the owner told me that first The monthly salary is 900 cash, and the second month is 1,800 cash."

"My boss also said that accommodation and three meals a day would be included, and I would go to work tomorrow morning."

When Xu Xiuxiu heard this, she felt relieved and sad.

I am happy that my daughter has found a good job, but sad that there are two injured people in the family who cannot do heavy work. They need a sum of money every month to take medicine.

Nowadays, little of the comfort money provided by the government is spent on treating the couple. The days are getting harder and harder every day, and it would be nice for the eldest daughter to find a job.

Xu Xi later said that the Yang family seemed to know Xu Fan and Xu Dazhu.

Xu Xiuxiu was confused and asked if she knew why Gu Yu and others knew their family. Xu Xi scratched her head and said, "My daughter was too excited to find a job and forgot to ask."

Xu Xiuxiu said thoughtfully: "It's okay if you don't ask. You will work under someone else's hands in the future. It's too presumptuous to ask. Your father and I will send you over tomorrow to have a look."

The next day, the couple followed Xu Xi to the door of Gu Yu's shop. When she saw Gu Yu coming out to open the door, Xu Xiuxiu felt that the person in front of her was familiar yet unfamiliar.

He stumbled and said, "Benefactor, are you Miss Gu, the benefactor?"

Yesterday I learned about the relationship between Xu Xi and Xu Xiuxiu. Today, when I saw Xu Xiuxiu, Gu Yu said without a trace of surprise: "Sister Xu, long time no see. How are you recovering?"
