It's not too late to love again

Chapter 313
About these deeds of Master Wu, Xiaoying only knew about it from the gossip of the staff in the restaurant.But now, Master Wu said that he wanted to take her as an apprentice, how could she not be excited or surprised?

But Xiaoying immediately thought of her own face after being greatly surprised...

"Master Wu, I...my face is so scary. Being your apprentice, I'm afraid it will damage your reputation." Xiaoying subconsciously stroked the mask on her cheek, and there was a mouth-like slit underneath. open scars.

Master Wu originally looked at Xiaoying lovingly, but when he heard her words, Master Wu's expression immediately became very serious, and he said solemnly: "You think I accept you as an apprentice because you can cook? I have seen There are too many people who have potential in cooking, but why don’t I accept you? I want to accept you as an apprentice, because I think you are a person who can endure hardships, and you are more determined than ordinary people, with a stronger will. Others are just a piece of jade , needs to be carved, and you are a steel plate, which can be tempered into steel. What I value is your character, do you understand? Don't let me hear your low self-esteem. People who are really capable will use their abilities and The shining point becomes a weapon to conquer others, and the bastard who has no ability will feel sorry for himself because of his appearance!"

Master Wu's words were like a slap in the face, shattering the deep-rooted inferiority complex in Xiaoying's heart, as if giving her a shot in the arm, allowing the fog in front of her to dissipate, revealing a broad road ahead...

Master Wu didn't disturb Xiaoying's thinking, but secretly nodded in relief, and retreated quietly. He believed that when the girl figured it out, she would automatically find him.

This night, Xiaoying tossed and turned, all the words of Master Wu echoed in her mind, like the morning bell and evening drum, which shocked her greatly.

It was Xiaoying's luck to meet Master Wu among many misfortunes, and she was Xiaoying's noble person.Some people can beat themselves through experience, while some people need someone to teach and beat them to realize the true meaning of life even though they have gone through hardships.Xiaoying's experience is miserable enough. Although she is strong, she still lacks the ability to jump out of the situation and forge herself.But now that she met Master Wu, Xiaoying understood that all the misery she experienced was for the sake of four words...

It is not enough to be strong, forge ahead in being strong, and live out your true self, that is the phoenix nirvana.

The next day, Xiaoying got up early as usual.In just one night, she seemed to have become a little different.The mask covered her face, but it couldn't cover the light in her eyes. It can be seen how precious it is for someone to issue a warning, which can cheer people up overnight.

Xiaoying has already made a decision in her heart, and she just waits to report to Master Wu.Today is another weekend, and the store is extremely busy again, and it is not appropriate to spread the matter of apprenticeship, at least until it is confirmed that it is really accepted by Master Wu before letting the store know.

The whole day was so busy that Xiaoying couldn't find a chance to talk to Master Wu alone. It seemed that she had to wait until she got off work.

At nine o'clock in the evening, it was time for dinner, and everyone sat around the table, but Xiaoying was called to do things.The new wound on her hand was still hurting, Xiaoying sprayed some white wine on the wound today to disinfect it to prevent infection.She is penniless now, and if the wound gets infected, she will be in trouble, and she doesn't even have the money to go to the hospital.

Except for Master Wu, no one else would care about Xiaoying's life, including the woman who brought Xiaoying here to work, Yanhong.She didn't care if she brought her here, and used Xiaoying as a servant just like everyone else.

Xiaoying came out of the kitchen sweating profusely. She sat down and looked at the table...

There were only leftovers, not even a piece of meat, and they were all snatched up by others.

Eating with the people in the store is such a virtue, if you are slow, you can only eat leftovers.Xiaoying has encountered this kind of thing more than once, so she is still so thin after coming here for a while, because her nutrition can't keep up, and she has to put in a lot of labor every day, so it's no wonder her body grows well!
Ah Xiang, one of the second chefs, was picking his teeth with a toothpick, and said eccentrically: "What are you looking at, eat it quickly and put it in, I'll wait for you!"

Another waitress in red also echoed: "That's right, hurry up, the boss will come to pay wages in a while!"

Salary?Xiaoying lowered her head, with a hint of joy in her eyes... Is today the day of salary?She will get the money soon?Although it was not much, only 1000 yuan, it was simply too important to her.

Xiaoying buried her head in eating, but since there was no food, she could only eat pickles for dinner.I just took two bites, and suddenly, a bowl of meat appeared in my sight...

"Ah..." Xiaoying looked up in surprise, only to see Master Wu smiling kindly at her: "Eat it, I saved it for you just now."

I see.Master Wu had already prepared, and left a bowl of twice-cooked pork for Xiaoying.

"Master Wu..." Xiaoying's eyes became hot, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.

A bowl of twice-cooked pork seems simple, but the heart contained in it is as heavy as a mountain.Only those who really cared about her would think of saving food for her.Everyone can do the icing on the cake, but very few people can give timely help.Master Wu's care is a little warmth for Xiaoying in this cold world, just like Grandma Sun.

There are people who despise her and hate her, but when God closes the door for you, he also opens a window for you.

"Thank you, Master Wu...Thank you..." Xiaoying said while stuffing vegetables into her mouth, resisting the wetness in her eyes.

Master Wu smiled without saying a word, sitting beside him and smoking leisurely.But the employees next to them were jealous... because none of them had enjoyed this kind of "special treatment". They always put food on the same plate when they ate, and they couldn't move slowly, otherwise they wouldn't be able to get food.But Master Wu left a separate portion for Xiaoying, and it was still twice-cooked pork!

The boss is stingy, and the employees eat very little meat. Of course, Xiaoying's bowl of meat aroused the envy of others.

"Master Wu, you're too biased!" Ah Xiang pouted, looking at Xiaoying with disgust.

"Tsk tsk... so much meat, be careful eating it alone!"

"..."

Here, even a bowl of meat is a rarity at employee meals.

Xiaoying frowned, but she didn't stop eating, and continued to eat with big mouthfuls.She doesn't care about other people's eyes, her character has been tempered long ago.Other people's gossip, sarcasm and exclusion, she just took it as a wind in her ears, and it was over.If it weren't for this kind of mentality, Xiaoying might not be able to hold on long ago.

Master Wu's face darkened, the cigarette butt in his hand was still stamped out on the ground, he glanced up at these young people, and said sternly: "Do you feel a sense of accomplishment when you bully others? I leave the meat to you." Her, do you have any opinions? Come to me if you have any opinions!"

Master Wu's position in the store is very important, even the boss dare not yell at Master Wu, as soon as he speaks, these employees are like popped balloons.Who dares to have an opinion on Master Wu?I dare not say anything.

Xiaoying hadn't eaten meat like this for a long time, and she fed a whole bowl of twice-cooked pork, which felt like Chinese New Year.

Just swallowed the last bite of rice, only to hear the sound of the boss breaking the gong at the door...

"Come here, get paid!"

The yelling of the boss is the sound of nature to the employees!The happiest day is when I get paid.

Master Wu sat still, and the rest of the people surrounded the boss.

Xiaoying also leaned over and stood behind Ah Xiang.

There were only a few employees, and the salary was paid quickly, and the people in front had all received it. When it was Xiaoying's turn, the boss looked disgusted.

"Your salary is 1000 yuan, but you broke a few plates, 200 yuan was deducted from you, and you have 800 yuan left." The boss said lightly, as if talking about a small matter of sesame and mung beans.

The salary of 1000 yuan is already very low, and 200 yuan is deducted from others, which is too treacherous!
Xiaoying was in a hurry, and stepped forward and asked: "Boss... I broke six plates, so I should deduct some money, but... do six plates really cost 200 yuan?"

Hiss... There was a sound of gasping around, and the others all showed expressions of watching the show, looking at Xiaoying as if they were looking at an idiot.

Sure enough, the boss's expression became fierce in an instant, and he shouted loudly: "Is it up to you whether the six plates are worth 200 yuan? I said two hundred is two hundred!"

Roaring is not enough, the boss has a lot of swear words coming out of his mouth, and saliva is flying.

Xiaoying was bombarded by the deafening sound, and immediately understood that the boss was obviously cheating, but there was nothing she could do if she knew it was cheating, as the money was in other people's hands.

The full of grievances could only be turned into blood and tears to be swallowed in her stomach. Xiaoying gritted her teeth and held back her anger and said, "Then deduct two hundred, please give me 800 yuan."

"What? For you?" The boss sneered: "You haven't gone out to work, have you? Now everywhere you hire people, you have to pay a month's salary first, and the salary will not start until the second month. Besides, you work every day. Living in my shop, how dare you ask me to pay you now? Pay 800 yuan? Don’t you spend money to rent a house outside? The 800 yuan is deducted from the 400 yuan rent, and you still have 400 yuan salary, which will be deposited with me Here, you can only get your salary next month!"

After the boss finished speaking, he pushed Xiaoying away impatiently, and her fat body had already reached the door.

Xiaoying was so angry that she was trembling all over, clenched her fists tightly and felt the urge to swing her boss in the face!
What is a profiteer?This is definitely typical!Too black-hearted, to put it bluntly, I just want to cheat Xiaoying's salary.

Xiaoying is penniless, and when she went to the toilet, she found that her aunt was coming soon. To put it bluntly, she didn't even have money for wheat sanitary pads, and the boss didn't even give her the remaining 400 yuan?
Xiaoying's brain became hot, and she rushed forward, but just as she took a step, her arm was caught by Master Wu.

Master Wu shook his head at Xiaoying, consciously telling her not to be impulsive, and then...

"Boss!" Master Wu roared loudly: "I have something to announce. From now on, Xiaoying is the only apprentice I accept. Anyone who dares to bully her in the future will be tantamount to disrespecting Wu Guoli. !"

The sonorous forceful resounding sound, Master Wu's words stunned everyone, including the boss who had just walked to the door, stopped and walked back, his face full of shock and anger.

"Wu Guoli, what do you mean? Didn't you say that you don't accept apprentices? My nephew wants to ask you to be his master and you don't even want to, but you actually want to accept an ugly monster as an apprentice? Did you mean it?" The boss glared. Focusing, suppressing his anger, he didn't dare to offend Master Wu, otherwise there would be no one in charge of the restaurant.

Of course Wu Guoli knows his own weight, and he has enough qualifications to speak loudly here.

"I made it very clear just now. It's just an announcement. You just need to hear it." Master Wu glanced at the boss with sharp eyes, and then turned to face Xiaoying. I was impounded, I will use the little money from the master first, you are my apprentice now, as a master, you can't just watch your apprentice can't even afford a popsicle..."
