Chapter 303: Prepare to cause trouble for Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu

Sha Zhu usually doesn't ask for help from others, so Sha Zhu hesitated at home for a long time and still didn't go to find Li Shengli. He really couldn't afford to lose face in front of that person.

Qin Jingru and Xu Damao went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce certificate the next day.

"Qin Jingru, just wait for me. I'm rich now. See if I can find someone younger and more beautiful than you." Xu Damao pretended to be indifferent and his tone seemed very relaxed. However, this is also a common thing. Nowadays, there are many people who are more vain than Qin Jingru who are only interested in that little bit of money.

Xu Damao has already given up a bit. He has been taking medicine for such a long time but his health has not improved, so Xu Damao has actually accepted his fate.

Xu Damao was also a man who cared about his reputation, so at this time he had to force himself to pretend that he didn't care.

"Come on, Xu Damao, I've followed you for so long in vain." Qin Jingru rolled her eyes and didn't care what Xu Damao said. Xu Damao was such a smart man. He spent all the money he earned on food, drink and entertainment. No one knew where the rest of the money was kept. The money he gave to Qin Jingru was not much.

Xu Damao bought a lot of clothes and other things for Qin Jingru, but not much money actually went to Qin Jingru.

Qin Jingru had a very good plan. Instead of living with Xu Damao, it would be better for her to find someone to give birth to a son while she is still able to have children so that she can take care of her in her old age.

However, it is not easy to find this candidate. Qin Jingru is not young anymore, and he looks down on those who are still receiving a fixed salary. After experiencing Xu Damao's lavish spending, Qin Jingru is unwilling to live the hard life he had before.

Li Shengli received a parcel list that day. He looked at the shipping address on the list and found that the package was sent from Hong Kong. Li Shengli immediately nodded in understanding. These must be the books that Lou Xiaoe promised to send.

Li Shengli took some free time to go to the post office to pick up the package. The package was quite large and was packed in a fine wooden box.

Li Shengli opened the wooden box and looked through the things inside. It was filled with some books on finance left for his eldest brother Li Chengzhi, as well as some fairy tales and toys that were not available on the mainland market, and of course, children's clothes for Li Chengqin.

"Lou Xiao'e is really thoughtful." Han Qiuyun felt embarrassed when she saw the things Lou Xiao'e sent. She and her husband just said it casually, but they didn't expect Lou Xiao'e to take it so seriously.

"Xiaoqin, Xiaokang, come here quickly and see the things your Aunt Lou sent you." Li Shengli shouted towards his house while taking things out of the box.

My daughter and son were playing and fighting in the room.

Hearing Li Shengli's shout, Li Chengqin and Li Chengkang ran out of the house.

"Wow, so many things?" Seeing the books and toys that Li Shengli had opened and placed on the ground, Li Chengqin and Li Chengkang's eyes sparkled, but they were both obedient children, so these things needed Li Shengli and Han Qiuyun to distribute them to them. Li Shengli was also very satisfied with the two children being so well-behaved, so he began to divide the things on the ground into three categories, one for the eldest child's books, another for girls' toys, and the last for boys' toys.

Lou Xiao'e was very careful when choosing things, and she picked things for the children that were suitable for their ages.

"Shengli, there is another letter here." Han Qiuyun was also sorting things next to her. She found the letter to Li Shengli that was sent with the package from the pile of packages.

Li Shengli was now curious, and reached out to take the envelope from Han Qiuyun's hand. There was no stamp on the envelope, and it was not stained. It just had the words "Li Shengli and Han Qiuyun personally addressed" written on it.

Li Shengli and Han Qiuyun looked at each other, both feeling a little strange. Li Shengli reached out, opened the envelope, took out the letter inside and began to read.

The content of the letter was not very long. Lou Xiao'e only explained the ownership of the toys she bought. Finally, at the end of the letter, she said that she planned to return to the mainland to invest. This was what her father and mother said. They had always wanted to return to the mainland, and she was also optimistic about the development of the mainland. The first investment she wanted to make was to open a restaurant. The letter also made a request, asking Li Shengli to help her find a chef with good cooking skills.

After reading the letter, Li Shengli and Han Qiuyun looked at each other, not knowing what to say. Li Shengli was a little surprised that the matter had returned to the starting point.

"Shengli, where do you plan to find a cook for her?" Han Qiuyun was a little curious. Could it be that she should ask Li Shengli to find his master and then see if he has other fellow disciples?
"No need to go through so much trouble. Isn't He Yuzhu here?" Li Shengli didn't take this matter to heart at all. It just happened that he could add fuel to the fire of the matter between Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu. Now Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu were divorced, and Qin Jingru was also divorced from Xu Damao. Qin Huairu couldn't have children, but Qin Jingru could. Li Shengli was thinking about what expressions would be on Xu Damao and Qin Huairu's faces if Qin Jingru married Sha Zhu.

"That's right. If you hadn't mentioned it, I almost forgot that Master He's cooking skills are not bad either." Han Qiuyun said at this time with sudden realization. Han Qiuyun really didn't think of Sha Zhu for a while.

"Master He's cooking skills are good, but isn't he a bit..." Han Qiuyun didn't say it out loud, but Li Shengli knew what she meant. Sha Zhu was indeed a bit unreliable in his conduct and behavior, and he had developed bad habits. He was used to taking food from the canteen of the steel factory.

"Oh, what's the big deal?" Li Shengli didn't think it was a big deal. Sha Zhu was used to taking things. He just needed to be stricter in the future. He would deduct his salary every time Sha Zhu took things. "It doesn't matter. Just ask Lou Xiao'e to find a stricter manager."

The matter of taking things is not a big deal or a small matter. As long as the regulations are strict, there will be no problem. Even if Sha Zhu wants to take the blame, his apprentice Ma Hua is still there.

"Wait for me to go and tell He Yuzhu. Things are different now than they were in the past. Now anyone with a little bit of ability goes into business." With the advancement of reform, more and more small shops have opened on the streets, and there are many more people setting up stalls on the streets. People with a little bit of ability and ambition are unwilling to spend time in factories.

If Sha Zhu wants to work well in a restaurant, he must correct his bad habit of taking things from the kitchen at will. In this era, all chefs, whether they come from factories or other state-owned restaurants, have this bad habit.

If the food is not good, they will not be used. If the food is good, they will be put in their pockets and taken home. Therefore, Li Shengli's restaurant would rather recruit people who do not know cooking skills from the society than hire kitchen helpers from factories, who have more work to do and are not efficient at it.
