Chapter 1496 We Can Be Poor, but We Can't Lose Our Principles and Bottom Line

"Dinner is ready." Mag took the last dish of spicy grilled fish out of the oven, and said to everyone busy in the kitchen with a smile.

"Tonight will still be very busy, everyone eat more." Mag said to everyone with a smile, and gave Amy a piece of fish.

"Thank you, Father." Amy said happily, poked the fish with her chopsticks, moved her mouth to the edge of the bowl and blew carefully, and then directly pulled it into her mouth.

"Ah, it's delicious." Amy said happily, her little face was full of happy smiles after eating delicious food.

Everyone picked up their chopsticks one after another. A large table of delicious food not only filled their stomachs, but also brought an unparalleled delicious experience, and provided enough energy for the next work. This was probably the happiest day of the day it's time.

Ruina sipped her meal, watched the crowd enjoy the food, occasionally teased a few words, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help showing a smile in the happy scene.

Although the work intensity is not low, the happiness and satisfaction of working at Mamy's restaurant is completely incomparable to previous jobs, and I have received enough respect here.

After dinner, the busy and long evening opening hours began.

The hot pot area of ​​Mai Mi Restaurant has become an existence that can be as hot as the restaurant area. On a cold winter day, there is probably nothing happier than calling a few friends to sit around the warm hot pot and cook spicy hot pot together. .

Ruina is in charge of the hot pot area, and she is busy in front of the pot almost all night. A pot of hot pot bottoms are prepared and cooked from her hands, and then served on each table, becoming a delicious source of hot pot.

In the spare time, Rena stood against the wall, picked up a towel and wiped the sweat from her forehead, and then unscrewed the thermos cup to drink a few sips of water.

His eyes fell on Mag, who was still busy in front of the stove. Three iron pots, two saucepans, and various kitchen utensils surrounded him, and food was being cooked in each pot.

He is like a god, walking between the pots with ease, his movements are smooth and smooth, making people not feel hectic at all, but like enjoying a wonderful cooking show.

"The new table guests want one serving of abnormally spicy, and another table has already assembled, two servings of clear soup, three servings of medium spicy, three servings of super spicy, and one serving of abnormally spicy." Yabei Mia walked into the kitchen , Rina said looking a little distracted.

"Okay...Okay." Rena immediately put down the water glass and went back to work.

Nine p.m,

Business hours are over, and customers leave.

"I've worked hard tonight. I prepared a fat meal for everyone: Durian Pizza + Beggar Chicken. Let's go home and sleep after having some supper." Mag came out of the kitchen with a tray, and said with a smile as she looked at the people who were cleaning up the restaurant. .

"Boss, if I eat supper every night, I think I will gain weight soon." Yabei Mia touched her stomach, feeling a little distressed.

"Yeah, I think I've started to gain weight, do you see that my face has become round?" Connie stretched out her finger and poked her face, a small dimple.

Everyone saw that she had indeed become a little rounder, and couldn't help but smile a little bit.

"It looks pretty cute." Mag said with a smile.

The sinful supper was resolved amid the disgusted laughter of everyone, and everyone said goodbye and left.

"good night, see you tomorrow."

Rui Na and Mia said goodbye, took out the key and opened the door in a low voice.

The light was still on in the room, and Karinth was sitting at the table seriously mending a piece of clothing, and there was a basket of clothes at her feet.

"Mother, didn't I tell you to go to bed earlier, why are you still sewing?" Rena closed the door, looking at Karins with some helplessness and distress.

"I can't sleep, I'll just do something to pass the time, and wait for you to come back." Karinsi tied a knot in the thread, bit it off with her teeth, turned around and pointed at a square on the table with a smile. The small wooden box said: "Someone just sent this wooden box, saying it was from your friend."

"Shanshan?" Ruina walked to the table, reached out and picked up the exquisite brown wooden box, which was slightly bigger than the palm of her hand. It was a bit heavy. She was too busy during this time, and she only saw Shanshan once in the restaurant. Shanshan was the only friend besides her, so she opened the box without thinking too much.

"It's not Shanshan, it's a middle-aged man, he put down his things and left." Karins' gaze fell on the box in Reina's hand.

"Middle-aged man?" Rena's hand froze, but the box had already been opened.

Dazzling golden light bloomed from the box, and in that box, a gold bracelet inlaid with jasper sparkled under the light.

"This... what is this? Who sent such a precious thing?" Carlos stepped forward, looking at the gleaming golden bracelet in the box, the golden streamer flowing on the piece of jasper inlaid, like flowing The waves are average.

And under the bracelet, there was a silver ticket with one hundred thousand copper coins written on it.

"This..." Ruina already knew who sent the box, she closed the lid at once, put the box back on the table, and said a little unnaturally: "It was given by someone I don't know. I will give it to you tomorrow." I will send it back, mother, you don't have to worry about it."

Karinsi looked at Rena who was a little dodgy, then glanced at the wooden box on the table, sat down by the table, and said with a serious expression: "Rina, do you have something to hide from me? Who is that man? Why did he give you such an expensive gift?"

"Mother..." Rena looked at Karins, met the stern gaze, hesitated for a moment, and said: "He is the owner of a hot pot restaurant. I met him on the way back this evening. He asked me to go to his hot pot shop. As the manager of the restaurant, he said that as long as I agreed to go, he would give us a house in a wealthy area and give me 30% of the ownership of the hotpot restaurant.”

"How did you reply to him?" Karinth's expression didn't change at all because of this generous promise, and she still asked sternly.

"I rejected him." Reina replied quickly.

Karinsi's expression softened a little, and she pointed to the wooden box beside her and said, "What about this one?"

"I don't know why he sent such a valuable gift after I refused, but I will return it tomorrow morning." Rina shook her head, it was the first time she saw such a precious gift, and ten Wan's banknote is a huge banknote that she has never owned before.

"You're right, kid, we can't take this money and gifts." Karinth nodded, somewhat relieved.

"But, if you promise him, you won't have to work hard to sew clothes anymore." Reina looked at Karins with some distress.

"If you went to his shop, what would you do? Help him make money by relying on the hot pot that Mr. McGonagall taught you? Then what is the difference between this and theft?" Karinsi looked at Rena, her voice He said in a low voice, "We can be poor, but we can't lose our principles and bottom line, let alone do things against our conscience. No matter how much money we get in this way, I will never use a copper coin."

"Mother, I understand." Reina's gaze gradually became clear and firm, she reached out to pick up the wooden box from the table, and said, "I'll send the box back now and explain to him clearly."

After speaking, he turned around and walked towards the door.
