Chapter 217: I Beg You for a Favor

Gu Fei said without hesitation: "No."

"I'm here to recruit friends, not trouble. With your mother's temperament, I wish I wouldn't have to deal with her for the rest of my life."

Xing'er looked a little embarrassed, and Gu Fei added: "You don't want to get married and want to follow your own path, then you have to fight for it yourself. You can't wait for others to arrange everything for you."

“He who helps himself, God helps him.”

Xing'er's expression changed slightly, "Okay, I'll go tell my mother."

Gu Fei looked at her and said calmly: "Since you are going to work at my place, then in the store, you will do whatever I say. Don't just rely on you being my cousin. If you just plan to go to my store Take refuge here, I advise you to stop worrying about it as soon as possible."

"Also, remember to make it clear to your mother that if she goes to the store to cause trouble once, you don't have to go there again."

Xing'er looked at Gu Fei blankly. She was indeed a man who could kill wolves. She was a little frightened by his aura. After a while, she nodded, "Okay."

She turned around and walked out, walking faster and faster, her back getting straighter and straighter.

Ms. Chen sighed and was about to say something when her aunt came in again dragging Tieniu and said she wanted Tieniu to work as a waiter in the store. Tieniu was sixteen years old, tall and very strong. He could also drive a car. Gu Fei thought it would be useful and agreed.

The next day, Gu Fei hired a cook.

The cook is a woman, in her thirties.

Gu Fei tried her skills at noon, and they were very good. Moreover, this woman had a lot of strength in her hands. When she turned such a heavy iron pot, she seemed to have no effort at all. It looked like she had been practicing since she was a child.

Gu Fei called her Sister Hua and said that the salary was two taels of silver a month.

Sister Hua also introduced Mrs. Chen who was doing laundry next door to her house. When Gu Fei met someone, Mrs. Chen cleaned up neatly and was very nice.

Then he hired two young workers, both of whom looked strong.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and Qian and Gu Zhong came to the door with Xing'er.

Qian seemed to have received Gu Zhong's advice at home, as she smiled apologetically as soon as she entered the door.

"Hey, I haven't seen you in the past few days. Little Fei is beautiful again."

Gu Fei forced a smile and said, "Auntie, it's really a rare time for me to come here."

She saluted Gu Zhong and said, "Uncle, please take a seat."

Gu Zhong sat down. At first he was still a bit reluctant to let go of his elders' airs. Seeing that Gu Fei was just sitting there without speaking, he had to take the initiative and said, "Well, little Fei, uncle is here to ask you for something today."

Gu Fei nodded, "You tell me, I'll listen."

"Xing'er, this girl, is a left-minded girl now and doesn't want to get married. I thought, if that's the case, why not let her help in your shop. She can earn some money and make a dowry for her in the future. ”

Gu Fei smiled and nodded, "That's okay, Xing'er is my cousin after all, so of course I have to reach out if I can give her a hand."

"I'm not worried about anything else. It's just the auntie. If you have nothing to do and go to the store to find Xing'er or something, then -"

Gu Zhong said quickly: "No, no, don't worry, Xiao Fei, if she dares to go, I will break her legs."

Mr. Qian's face was twitching next to him.

Gu Fei smiled and said, "Okay, then Myolie, let's go to my store and give it a try. As for what to do, I'll make arrangements later. Maybe I'll work as a helper in the kitchen or as a waiter."

"The salary is four hundred coppers a month, including food and accommodation."

When Qian heard this, she shouted, "Why are there only four hundred coins? Aren't Aunt Liu and Tieniu both five hundred coins!"
