Chapter 775: Chapter 769: Discussing to Invite Rascals for Help
After hearing this, Nangong Shulan could only tell them that her home was too far from here, and it wouldnât be good for the elderly in her family if she returned too late. Fortunately, after so many days of advertising, the customers knew what time they closed, so there was no interference with their closing time.
While the customersâ understanding warmed Nangong Shulanâs heart, there wasnât much she could do. There were only two of them, and they couldnât run the business for such long hours. Knowing that they were missing out on making money, both Nangong Shulan and Qin Lei felt regretful. Still, for the sake of their health, Qin Lei insisted that Nangong Shulan not overwork herself, which led them to consider hiring the ruffians for help.
As ruffians of their kind were usually loyal when treated with fairness, Qin Lei wasnât worried about them causing trouble.
âShulan, here.â Qin Lei brought a bowl of water and placed it in front of Nangong Shulan.
âThanks. Do you want some?â Nangong Shulan said with a smile to her husband.
âNo need, I just had some.â After giving water to his wife, Qin Lei made two pancakes and served two bowls of porridge. He placed one in front of his wife and the other in front of himself.
âYou must be hungry. Come, letâs eat.â Qin Lei handed the chopsticks to his wife before picking up his own bowl. He was glad that he was there to help his wife, or else he couldnât imagine how exhausted she would be.
âOkay.â Nangong Shulan started to eat. She was genuinely starvingâmaking and frying pancakes while moving around constantly had taken its toll on her, and the breakfast she had earlier had long since been digested.
âMy dear, I think we can use those ruffians. Their family situation isnât good, and itâs not getting better. If we hire them, we can give them work and a salary. Firstly, itâll provide them with jobs, and second, they might find wives sooner. Theyâre getting older, and their families must be anxious. We should help them out, donât you think?â Nangong Shulan suggested to her husband after finishing her meal.

âHmm, Iâve been considering it for a long time and have observed their character. They are indeed some good kids. We can discuss it when they come tomorrow and see if they agree,â Qin Lei replied. He had also observed the group for some time, and since his wife had brought up the idea, he had no objections. After all, they needed more help, and the ruffians knew how things worked around here.
As for why Qin Lei wasnât afraid that they would scare away the customers, it was because they had never harmed anyone despite their intimidating appearance. Qin Lei believed they were kind-hearted and was willing to take a chance on them. This act of trust from Qin Lei and Nangong Shulan nurtured loyal managers who couldnât be poached by others despite better offers.
âSure. By the way, Lele didnât come back yesterday. Iâm not sure if she has enough living expenses or not. Can you find some time to visit her and give her some money?â Nangong Shulan thought about her younger daughter, who had been at school for two weeks. The school had a mandatory half-day off on Sundays, and since Qin Jiale lived far away, she usually came back only once a month.
Now that their family had started a business, they didnât want their daughter to struggle too much. If she didnât come back, they would make time to visit her instead.
âIf I go see our daughter, can you manage here by yourself?â Qin Lei knew how much work was involved in running the business each day, and it would be too much for one person.
âYou can help me in the morning, and then you can take the bus to visit our daughter when itâs bright outside. Iâll be fine after the morning rush. Donât worry,â Nangong Shulan reassured him with a smile.
