Spoiled By the Young Master After Reborn In the 80s-Chapter 830: Eight hundred twenty-eight, Attitude
Chapter 830: Eight hundred twenty-eight, Attitude
"Director Wang, I’m really not tired, let me pour the water." Lin Helian said as she reached out and took the basin of water from Director Wang’s hands and headed towards the washroom.
Watching Lin Helian’s departing figure, Wang Haiyang nodded with satisfaction. "This person isn’t bad!" Not presuming upon her background, not taking him lightly. They would get along just fine in the future.
The waiters who were pretending to be busy looked at this scene with surprise on their faces. Why was Director Wang being so polite to a new waiter? Could it be that she had a powerful background? If that was the case, then hadn’t they just offended her?
After cleaning the basin and rag, Lin Helian put them back in their place, came out of the washroom, squatted next to the counter, and reached out to organize the goods inside. This was what the waiter she first met had instructed her to do.
"This can be left to me, don’t busy yourself. Oh and, my name is Li Cuimei." The first waiter Lin Helian met approached her with a smile. Her attitude had turned a full one hundred and eighty degrees from before.
"Big Sister Li, let me tidy up. It’s my first day here, I should get familiar with everything." Lin Helian naturally understood the reason behind the sudden change in her attitude.
"Then I’ll tidy up with you. There’s a certain order to putting these things away." Li Cuimei said with a smile. Actually, tidying up these things was very simple, but she wanted to do it together mainly because she wanted to probe into Lin Helian’s background to see what connections she had.
"Alright." Lin Helian agreed.
Squatting beside Lin Helian, Li Cuimei sorted and explained, "You see, these things are arranged in a certain order, so that customers can easily see everything, and it also attracts their gaze more."
"I understand!" Lin Helian nodded and started arranging the items neatly according to Li Cuimei’s instructions.
"Xiao Lin, do you know our Director Wang?" Li Cuimei asked.
"No, I met him for the first time today." Lin Helian honestly replied. She knew that Li Cuimei was probing her background now.
Li Cuimei nodded, "Your accent doesn’t sound local, how did you get to work at the sales point?" There was a rule at the sales point that only locals could be hired.
"A friend introduced me, she’s friends with Director Zhang from the city sales point." Lin Helian said. Since the other party wanted to know, she might as well tell her clearly and put an end to the probing.
"So that’s how it is!" Li Cuimei nodded with understanding. Although it wasn’t any influential background, it was still a connection with upper-level leadership. She would have to maintain a good relationship with Lin Helian in the future.
After tidying up the counter, Li Cuimei introduced the other waiters at the sales point to Lin Helian and then led Lin Helian to her own counter, "Xiao Lin, you’ll be in charge of this counter from now on." This counter, which sold stationery, was comparatively relaxing at the sales point.
"Alright, thank you Sister Li!" Lin Helian expressed her gratitude.
"Don’t mention it, if you have any questions in the future, just come to me." Li Cuimei said cheerfully.
"Okay." Lin Helian nodded in response.
When Li Cuimei left, Lin Helian squatted down and began memorizing the prices of the various goods.
Because of the New Year, there weren’t many customers at the sales point, and school hadn’t started yet, so Lin Helian had a quiet afternoon. However, from chatting with several waiters, she learned a lot of information, such as how to eat meals, how much the monthly salary was here, and what kind of benefits were available, etc.
The day passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was time to get off work. Lin Helian said goodbye to everyone and returned home to Guard District.
Just as Lin Helian had gotten back to Guard’s Members Courtyard, several Guard’s Wives surrounded her.
"Sister Helian, I heard you started working, where are you working?"
"Do they still hire there?" Lin Helian’s job was talk of the whole Guard District, and everyone was envious of her good fortune.
"Ladies, I still need to rush back to cook dinner, let’s chat another time when I’m free." Lin Helian said and then hurried back home. She didn’t want everyone to know that she was working at the sales point as they would surely dig deep if they did. If they found out it was Luo Shu who arranged the job for her, they would definitely ask Luo Shu for help. She didn’t want to cause any trouble for Luo Shu.
Seeing Lin Helian hurry away, the faces of the Guard’s Wives were filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment.
"What’s so great about that, it’s just a job. I’ll also get one someday, I don’t believe I won’t find any."
"Lin Helian probably doesn’t have the capability to find a job by herself, it must have been Sister-in-law Lu’s help."
"I think so too."
"Why don’t we follow her tomorrow to see where she’s working?"
"Let’s do that!" The Guard’s Wives unanimously agreed.
After getting home and putting her things away, Lin Helian went to Luo Shu’s home. Besides picking up Yhan Cheng, she also wanted to tell Luo Shu about her day at the sales point.
Luo Shu was watching television in the living room when she heard someone knock on the door, got up, and opened it.
Seeing Lin Helian at the door, Luo Shu smiled slightly, "Got off work? How does it feel to be working?"
Lin Helian smiled and nodded, shut the courtyard door, and followed Luo Shu into the house, "I think it’s quite fun to work, having chats with everyone, I feel like my horizons have been broadened a lot." After spending a day with the people at the sales point, she had grown familiar with them, and naturally, the conversation flowed more freely.
"That’s good to hear, would you like something to drink?" Luo Shu asked Lin Helian.
"No trouble needed, Yhan Cheng should be back soon, I still need to cook dinner." Lin Helian said. She had decided with Yhan Zhan that morning that Yhan Cheng would commute alone in the future. She had come to pick up Yhan Cheng today mainly to tell Luo Shu about her work.
"Hmm!" After checking the time, Luo Shu nodded and sat down with Lin Helian on the sofa, "Tell me about your day at work."
Smiling, Lin Helian nodded and began, "When I went to work at the sales point this morning, everyone wasn’t very welcoming. Later, they became much nicer to me and began talking to me on their own after learning from Director Wang that I was introduced by Director Zhang. Now, I’ve been assigned to the stationery counter, the work is really easy. And after spending a day together, I now have a pretty good relationship with everyone." She was truly happy today! Not only did she have work, but she also met many people, and most importantly, she learned many things she hadn’t known before from others, which broadened her horizons.
