Chapter 106 Goodbye County Magistrate He
Chapter 106 Goodbye County Magistrate He
Because they were going to calculate the wages today, Shen Wanning had brought Lin He with her to test him. Later that evening, after the shop closed, she and Lin He would calculate the wages together to see if he could calculate accurately.
Lin He was so excited along the way that he kept moving his butt. "Auntie, if I can get the accounts right today, then I don't have to go to school anymore and can work as a cashier in a milk tea shop?"
Shen Wanning reached out and tapped his forehead. "You wish! Even if you want to be an accountant in the future, you still need to learn book knowledge well. You can only be my accountant when you grow up."
Lin He was deflated. "I thought Auntie meant that today was a test for me. As long as I passed, she would let me stay at Mingyue Tower to work. I also want to help Auntie with her business like my father did."
"If you are interested in these, your aunt will definitely help you in the future. But you are still too young now, and it is not a bad thing to read more. Your aunt's milk tea shop will be opened in other places in the future, so you must at least learn to read maps! Otherwise, you will get lost on the road? In the future, when other milk tea names appear on your aunt's menu, will you be able to recognize them? If you do other businesses in the future, can you remember the names of other things?" Shen Wanning taught her earnestly.
Lin He lowered his head and pursed his lips. "Okay, aunt, I will study hard. But I don't want to take the imperial examination like my third uncle. I'm not interested in becoming an official."
Shen Wanning knocked on his head. "Auntie said she would help you do business in the future, so she naturally won't force you to take the imperial examination. But you can't ignore studying because of this, understand?"
Lin He nodded and said, "Remember, Auntie, I will study hard and help you expand your business in the future."
Shen Wanning patted his head and said, "You're so good."
Arriving at Mingyuelou, everything was in perfect order. The milk tea shop was still full of customers. There were even a few customers sitting on small stools outside waiting in line.
"Boss, Mr. He is here." Shopkeeper Yang, who was counting the bill at the counter, leaned over and whispered in Shen Wanning's ear.
"Uh." Shen Wanning didn't react and responded. When she looked up again, County Magistrate He had already walked in with Madam He and He Zhenzhen.
Shen Wanning went to greet them, "Mr. He, Mrs. He, Miss He, are you still going to the Yazhu private room today?"
County Magistrate He was particularly fond of bamboo and often wore a long, pale green gown with a subtle bamboo leaf pattern. Sometimes, even the hairpins he wore were shaped like bamboo, with sections and sections. Therefore, the Yazhu private room was often left empty, just in case County Magistrate He and his family were to visit. Of course, guests could be accommodated in the Yazhu private room if they requested.
County Magistrate He shook his head and said, "No need. Let's just find a place to sit in the lobby today!" He turned around and looked around, and found that the lobby was already full of people.
Just as he was about to speak, Madam He came to the rescue and said, "Let's go to a private room. There are too many people here, and we'll be recognized."
He Zhenzhen looked around and didn't hear what Magistrate He and the others said. When she saw Lin He, her eyes lit up.
"Dad, Mom, you guys go first. I'll go see what new items are on the menu. I'll be there in a moment." He Zhenzhen looked up and said to County Magistrate He and the others.
"This child is so grown up, but why doesn't she look like a girl at all?" Mrs. He shook her head lovingly, but still let go of He Zhenzhen's hand.
"Ms. He is lively and lovely, just the kind of personality she should have at her age," Shen Wanning praised.
With that, the three of them went upstairs and entered the Yazhu private room. Shen Wanning took out two menus and handed them to County Magistrate He and Madam He.
"It's only been a month, and there are so many new products?" County Magistrate He looked at the menu, which was very different from the first time he came.
In addition to the original milk tea, there are also new offerings, including osmanthus oolong tea, osmanthus oolong milk tea, jasmine tea, jasmine milk tea, rice wine, and fermented glutinous rice ice milk. There's also a snack section, currently featuring iced yogurt, double-skin milk, and caramel stewed milk.
Shen Wanning nodded and introduced the new varieties to them one by one. Finally, she pointed to the rice wine and said to Madam He, "This wine is good for women. It has a very light flavor and won't make you drunk. Madam He, would you like to try it?"
Mrs. He smiled slightly, "Then this one will do. I want something hot. I'm older now, unlike these kids who always like to drink something cold."
Shen Wanning's mouth twitched. Madam He is less than 30 years old now, only about 28 or 29 years old. In ancient times, people would actually say that they are old.
"Mrs. He is still in her prime, so it's okay for her to drink something cold. It's been very hot these past few days, and cold drinks can help relieve the heat."
Mrs. He hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Okay, then I want it cold. A bowl of rice wine and a bowl of rice wine ice cream. Zhenzhen likes to drink milk, so she will definitely like this."
County Magistrate He pointed at the osmanthus oolong tea and said, "I'll take this! I've never seen anyone combine flowers and tea together. I want to try it and see what it tastes like."
Shen Wanning responded and walked out.
When he got downstairs, He Zhenzhen was standing opposite Lin He, looking at him with sparkling eyes.
"Are you really out of that candy from last time? That candy was really delicious, with a milky flavor. You must have made it yourself. When will it be available for sale?"
Lin He looked hopeless, "Ms. He, we really don't sell that kind of candy. My aunt happened to meet a businessman from Daliang and bought a bag of that candy."
"I don't believe it. That candy is made from cow's milk. Your family is the only one in the entire Qinghe County that has cow's milk. You must have made it yourself." He Zhenzhen said with her hands on her hips, looking unconvinced.
Lin He was about to open his mouth to explain himself when he saw Shen Wanning coming over. He was secretly delighted. "Aunt, Miss He asked for some candy, but she didn't believe me when I said we didn't have any."
Shen Wanning walked over with a smile, "Miss He, we're really out of candy. I only bought one pack, and those brats ate it all."
"Well, okay then. If I meet that Daliang businessman again in the future, could you please ask Sister Shen to buy me a few more bags? I can give the money to Sister Shen." He Zhenzhen said with some regret.
Shen Wanning nodded. "Of course, but the merchant said that this toffee is made with a secret recipe unique to his family. If you want to meet him, it depends on fate."
"Okay, thank you Sister Shen. I hope we can meet again next time." After saying that, He Zhenzhen raised her head and said, "Sister Shen, I'll go upstairs first. By the way, I want a bowl of double skin milk with red beans. Lin He just said that red bean double skin milk is delicious. I want to try it too."
"Okay, I'll send it to you in a while." Shen Wanning nodded in response.
