Chapter 37: Chapter 37 Stress Reduction



They were also incredibly efficient with their hands and feet.

Before Chen Yu had finished tidying up the kitchen, they had already cleaned up both floors of the dining hall spotlessly.

They even wiped down the windowsills.

The last table of customers on the first floor felt somewhat embarrassed as they realized the surroundings had been cleaned so thoroughly.

"Boss, your new waitresses are really good. The place is cleaned up as if no business had been conducted today."

Realizing that their metaphor might not be quite appropriate, the table of customers decided to take the remaining fried cakes and corner pastries home with them.

Tuan Tuan was sitting obediently in the main hall, doing her homework.

After the six girls finished cleaning, they looked over at Tuan Tuan from a distance.

"The boss is handsome, and his daughter is beautiful too."

"That must be the boss\'s wife working with him in the kitchen, right?"

"Don\'t talk nonsense; the boss is divorced. That one, they say she\'s the boss\'s college classmate."

"So, they\'re not together then?"

As they whispered among themselves, Chen Yu came out with a list in hand.

"Chu Hong, Li Yu, Zhang Qian, Su Qing, Zhao Meng, Han Cai! Did I get anyone\'s name wrong?"

"No!" the six girls answered in unison.

"Good. These first few days since the store opened, I will be arranging your specific duties step by step. For now, just familiarize yourselves with the environment."

"All right, boss."

Chen Yu looked at the girls before him with satisfaction. "As for the employee meal..."

"Boss!" Chu Hong raised her hand. "We can just have the leftover fried cakes and corner pastries."

"That\'s right, we used to eat here a lot when we were working elsewhere, and we couldn\'t fit anything else in," Su Qing chimed in.

Chen Yu shook his head. "That won\'t do, the employee meal needs to be more formal."

"All right, let\'s just be casual since it\'s the first day!"

Tong Ya walked over with a bag and distributed ten fried cakes and two corner pastries to each of the six girls.

"Take this as your dinner for today. When you leave, each of you can also take a drink of your choice."

The six girls immediately lit up with joy, but they didn\'t know how to address Tong Ya.

Calling her "boss" wasn\'t quite right, and calling her "boss\'s wife" wasn\'t appropriate either.

After exchanging glances, they all exclaimed, "Long live sister!"

Tong Ya smiled with satisfaction at their cleverness.

"Okay, go to sleep early. We start work at four in the morning tomorrow, but there will be a lunch break at noon."

The six girls had no objections; they were used to working twelve hours a day at the factory, sometimes even more.

And the work they did there was far more exhausting than here.

After giving their instructions, the six girls happily left work.

Tang Xiaowei, who had been waiting, quickly stood up and grabbed Tong Ya\'s arm.

"We should head back too."

Tong Ya was reluctant to leave but could not withstand Tang Xiaowei\'s tugging. After greeting Chen Yu and Tuan Tuan, she left with Tang Xiaowei.

Chen Yu also closed the folding door and carried Tuan Tuan upstairs to the third floor.

Perhaps due to having slept for an extended period earlier, Chen Yu had already woken up at two thirty.

After he had washed up and came downstairs to open the folding door, he found Tong Ya already standing at the entrance.

Last night, Tong Ya had left after ten, and now, not even three o\'clock, she was already there.

"You\'re not fully recovered yet; why didn\'t you rest more?"

Chen Yu was a bit annoyed.

Tong Ya giggled, "I\'ve been having a bit of insomnia, my neighbor was renovating in the middle of the night and it was super noisy, so I came over to sleep at your place for a while."

Without waiting for Chen Yu\'s consent, Tong Ya dashed up to the third floor and lay down on Chen Yu\'s bed.

Chen Yu let out a soft sigh and went into the kitchen to start working.

Tong Ya wasn\'t really there to sleep. She spread Chen Yu\'s quilt over herself and took a deep breath.

After lying there for about half an hour, Tong Ya got up and tidied the bed.

By this time, Chen Yu had already mixed two large buckets of dough and was letting them ferment.

He was using a large meat grinder to prepare the filling.

Previously, when he was at the food cart, he had used a small domestic meat grinder.

Each time, he could only grind a small clump of raw material.

Now it was different; a large piece of pork thrown into it was turned into minced pork in no time.

"I\'m here to help!"

Tong Ya was already dressed in an apron and had put on gloves, ready to enter the kitchen.

Chen Yu jumped in surprise, "Weren\'t you going to take a nap? You came down so soon."

"I don\'t know why, but I felt like the sleep quality on your bed was just so good, half an hour was enough to fill me up."

Chen Yu, having no choice, moved a chair over for Tong Ya.

At three-thirty in the morning, six girls were laughing and chatting as they entered the store.

"Wow, the boss is up earlier than us and already hard at work."

Chu Hong exclaimed in surprise and then leaned on the kitchen window.

Chen Yu was also taken aback, "Aren\'t you supposed to start work at four? Why are you here so early?"

Zhang Qian pouted, "We\'re used to coming in early for work at the factory."

Chen Yu smiled, "There are no such rules here, and besides, the dormitory I provided for you is not far from the shop. It\'s only a five-to-six-minute walk."

"We can\'t do that!" Han Cai quickly stepped forward, "You\'ve been kind enough to take us in, we can\'t let you down."

"Alright then, Chu Hong, Li Yu, Zhang Qian, Su Qing, you four come to the kitchen. Zhao Meng, Han Cai, you two arrange the tables and chairs."

"Okay," the six girls uniformly responded and started to get busy with their tasks.

Chu Hong and Li Yu were responsible for preparing the filling with two large meat grinders.

Zhang Qian and Su Qing were following Tong Ya, learning how to make vegetable turnovers and fried cakes.

The essence of fried cakes and vegetable turnovers actually lies in the dough mixing, the proportion of filling, and the amount of seasoning.

The remaining steps are not only tedious but also not that important.

Now that Chen Yu had manpower at his disposal, it would be foolish not to use it.

During the renovation, Chen Yu had expanded the kitchen and added a smaller kitchen on the second floor.

Now the kitchen on the first floor was very spacious, and with six people bustling about, there was more than enough room.

Indeed, many hands make light work. By four-thirty in the morning, all the raw materials in the cold storage had been turned into fillings.

Chen Yu had also mixed up a total of five large iron buckets of dough.

There were also quite a few semi-finished products accumulating.

When the flow of customers picked up, Chen Yu no longer felt as much pressure as before.

At six forty-five, Tong Ya took Tuan Tuan to school.

"Tong Ya, you really treasure this child, personally doing school drop-offs and pick-ups every day."

Li Juan, like Tong Ya, was running a dance class.

She was one of the few friends Tong Ya had at the kindergarten.

"Of course I treasure her!" Tong Ya said dotingly, ruffling Tuan Tuan\'s head, "Our kindergarten\'s dance class blossomed because of this kid."

As Tong Ya spoke, her face was full of pride, as if Tuan Tuan was her own daughter.
