Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 2) Chapter 51.6: The Bitter Heroine (44)

When the study for the day was over, Liu Cuifen was still actively memorizing words while lying on the bed. Shao Yu stopped her and asked, “Please pay more attention to our daughter recently.”

Liu Cuifen immediately said, “What’s wrong with her? Isn’t she fine? I heard that the manager wants to promote her to foreman.”

“Foreman? She’s only been working for three months and she’s going to be a foreman?” Although Shao Yu was happy about his daughter’s promotion, he also understood that such a quick promotion would inevitably lead to dissatisfaction in some people.

“Last month, our daughter gave the manager a good idea. Our restaurant has been crowded for several days in a row. She is so outstanding, can’t she be a foreman?” said Liu Cuifen.

After hearing this, although Shao Yu was proud of his daughter’s intelligence, he also felt that Shao Yingniang seemed a little too aggressive.

“After a while, I want to open a literacy class at home and teach the children nearby to read for free.” Shao Yu suddenly said.

Liu Cuifen was stunned and was about to say that Shao Yu was wasting his time, but when she thought about it how she had her current job because of literacy, she swallowed her objection.

In a blink of an eye, it was the beginning of the month. On this day, Shao Yu picked up the mother and daughter from getting off work. The expressions of the mother and daughter were very different.

Liu Cuifen was in a very high and mighty manner, like a victorious general, whereas Shao Yingniang seemed to be troubled by something.

Shao Yu asked Liu Cuifen in a low voice: “Did our daughter become the foreman?”

Liu Cuifen nodded, and then asked dissatisfiedly: “Why don’t you me if I got the team leader.”

There was no need for Shao Yu to ask. Looking at her expression, he knew that she must have been promoted to team leader.

Liu Cuifen entered the alley and did not rush home. Instead, she knocked on Zhang Ma’s door.

“What is mother doing?” Shao Yingniang couldn’t help but ask.

Shao Yu pulled the corner of his mouth and said, ” She intends to bully people.”

Shao Yingniang: …

“Who is it, so late at night?” Aunt Zhang asked unhappily.

When she saw it was Liu Cuifen, Aunt Zhang was stunned. She didn’t know what expression to use to face this neighbor who used to be similar to her.

“Auntie Zhang, why don’t you go to our restaurant to grab some food tonight?” Liu Cuifen asked.

Aunt Zhang made up a random excuse.

The people in the alley did participate in the “corner” retail activity of the Western restaurant for a while, but they soon found that there were too many people participating and they couldn’t get any good things at all, so the people in the alley gradually lost their enthusiasm.

“What a pity! You don’t know that I’m the one distributing food today.” Liu Cuifen said with regret on her face, as if Aunt Zhang had missed a huge bargain.

Aunt Zhang looked at her in surprise and asked, “If I go there, will you open the little door for me?”

Liu Cuifen replied very straightforwardly: “No.”

Aunt Zhang: …

“Then why are you saying this?”

Liu Cuifen patted her chest and said, “Only the team leader is qualified to distribute food.”

Aunt Zhang couldn’t help but ask: “Then you…”

“Yes, I am now the team leader of the restaurant!”

Aunt Zhang felt a pang of bitterness in her heart. She also understood that Liu Cuifen came here to show off and also wanted her to use her big mouth to spread the news to the neighbors.

“A team leader is just a team leader. How can he earn more money?” Aunt Zhang muttered casually.

“The team leader doesn’t make much more money every month, just three dollars.” Liu Cuifen said casually.

Aunt Zhang wanted to bite Liu Cuifen.

But Liu Cuifen continued, “My salary is nothing. If I can become a foreman, I can earn another five dollars.”

If they lived frugally, one dollar would be enough for a family of three to live on for a month. When Aunt Zhang heard this, she wished she could be the foreman herself.

“You talk as if you can be a foreman.” Zhang Ma muttered.

“Of course I didn’t get promoted to foreman,” said Liu Cuifen.

“Then why are you so proud?” asked Aunt Zhang.

“I didn’t get promoted, but my daughter was promoted to foreman.” Liu Cuifen suddenly spoke very loudly, as if she wanted everyone in the alley to hear her.

“Your daughter? Can she be promoted to foreman?” Aunt Zhang asked in surprise.

Liu Cuifen said: “My daughter is smart and has come up with several good ideas. The restaurant’s business has increased several times. Shouldn’t she be promoted to foreman?”

After hearing this, Aunt Zhang still didn’t believe it.

Liu Cuifen then said, “Isn’t your eldest granddaughter quite smart? Send her to work in the restaurant, too. Maybe she can be promoted to foreman in a few months.”

When Zhang Ma thought about the foreman’s salary, she was immediately very excited.

But Liu Cuifen continued, “Oh, look at me, I am so old and confused that I forgot that your eldest granddaughter can’t read.”

Aunt Zhang said, “Why would a little girl need to learn to read?”

“If you can read, you can become a foreman and earn a lot of money.” Liu Cuifen said with a smile.

She didn’t deliberately target Zhang Ma. It was just that Shao Yu’s literacy class was going smoothly, but Zhang Ma took the lead in making trouble, and in the end Shao Yu’s literacy class could not continue.

Shao Yu didn’t care about it, but Liu Cuifen took it to heart.
