Early the next morning, Shen Lu received a large cart of peripherals from Qin Shuangshu. She happily kept half of it in the system warehouse and put the other half in the small utility room behind the front desk.

Today was a busy day as usual, and Shen Lu seemed to be used to this kind of busyness.

The kitchen is like a high-speed precision machine. Everyone completes their part of the job accurately and is ready to put the first wave of dishes on the window for sale at 11:30.

Xin Yu's hand was still swollen, but he didn't feel much anymore.

"You'll get used to it when it's swollen." This is what he told Deng Ying, "You have to walk on the path you choose, even if you kneel down."

Deng Ying was in awe, "I thought you were too simple before."

She thought Xin Yu was the kind of heartless person who would lie down wherever he fell.

I didn't expect it to be so resilient.

Xin Yu smiled again and again on his face, and grinned in his heart.

If he had known that the pizza was selling so well, he would not have made hand-made pizza. It would be much easier to make iron plate pizza!

"You also have to work hard. The boss will conduct a business assessment after a while, and those who fail to meet the standards will be punished."

Shen Lu said this on the first day he returned to work. Everyone was very supportive of the business assessment and they were particularly active in doing things these days.

Shen Lu's original intention was not to trouble the employees. She just felt that if she learned something, she should check it regularly to know which parts she had done well and which parts needed more work.

After a busy lunch, Shen Lu, who had casually dealt with him, was sitting at the front desk taking a rest. Liu Qiang came over with a deep kick and a shallow kick.

"Cough!" He opened the door a crack and coughed heavily.

Shen Lu recognized his voice, but did not turn his head and continued to rest with half-closed eyes.

Liu Qiang coughed louder again, but Shen Lu still ignored him. He had no choice but to walk to the front desk and call Shen Lu's name.

"Shen Lu, why don't you answer when I call you?"

In front of his daughter, Liu Qiang would always assume a condescending attitude, as if it was engraved in his bones.

"Dad, when did you call me?" Shen Lu pretended to have just woken up, "I didn't hear anyone calling me."

"Are you deaf? Can't you hear me coughing so loudly?"

"Cough? I don't call you cough. It's better if you call me by my name next time something happens." Shen Lu crossed his legs and asked, "What do you want from me?"

Liu Qiang felt unusually embarrassed, "Didn't you say you would find me a new wife earlier? How did you handle it?"

Shen Lu was stunned for a moment, "Dad, wasn't that just nonsense that Liu Yaozu just said? Do you still take it seriously?"

"It's not nonsense." Liu Qiang frowned, "That's what Yaozu and I planned, and we do it for your own good!"

Liu Qiang still understands the principle that only by pulling people into the same boat can they do things with care.

But Shen Lu wanted to laugh when he heard his reason for pulling people on board.

"For my own good? What's so good about it?"

"Your mother is illiterate and can't get on the stage. I don't think you're a catch-all. You should be able to marry into a good family in the future. When the other party knows that they have a biological mother like your mother, it will be a shame."

Shen Lu almost laughed out loud. Liu Qiang must have thought about this reason.

What nonsense? Let’s not even talk about whether she will get married or not. According to his theory, she not only needs to change her mother, but also preferably her father and brother.

Yang Jing couldn't get on the stage, so he and Liu Yaozu did?

"Did you give mom the medicine?" Shen Lu didn't want to answer his question, so he simply switched to another one.

"Hey."

Liu Yaozu didn't want to feed him, so Liu Qiang fed him.

"Is she awake?"

"Not yet." "Then let's wait until mom wakes up and then we can talk."

Shen Lu waved his hand, wanting to send Liu Qiang away.

Why was Liu Qiang so easy to send away? He just couldn't sit still and wanted to come over to urge Shen Lu. It would be best if he could get a positive answer from Shen Lu.

"Shen Lu, it's related to the development of our family. Don't be careless, but be attentive!"

"Also, why hasn't anyone brought us food in the past two days?"

Shen Lu asked him back: "Have you and Liu Yaozu been working recently?"

"Yaozu and I have limited legs and feet, how can we work?"

"If you don't work, of course you have nothing to eat. My boss doesn't open this store for charity. You don't work and you still want to get food?"

"Then why did someone bring cakes for three meals a day before?"

He and Liu Yaozu had been eating pizza these past few days, which were the filling-free pizza that Xin Yu had practiced making previously.

When she got tired of eating it in those days, she put it away without eating it. Liu Jing couldn't afford it for the past two days because she was sick, so she lived purely on it.

"It was originally planned to be thrown away and fed to the dogs. I felt it was a pity, so I sent someone over to ask if you would eat it."

"Shen Lu, you!"

"You can get out of bed now, right? I hear you sound very energetic, so you should be able to work in the greenhouse. You will work in the fields starting tomorrow."

Just to give him free time, he would think about what is available and what is not available day by day.

Most of the ground in the greenhouse has not been plowed yet, so I will arrange some work if I am so free.

Liu Qiang said angrily: "Shen Lu, don't forget, the injury on my thigh was because of you, and it's not all healed now. You actually let me work! Do you have any conscience anymore?"

"Dad is out of touch when he says this. Aren't I following his example? If I have no conscience if I ask you to work, then what do you and my brother do?" Shen Lu sneered.

"What do you mean by this? I'm not here for you brothers and sisters?!" Liu Qiang roared angrily, "You are a wolf-hearted thing!"

After roaring, he limped away.

Shen Lu smiled silently, then lay down on the chair and looked at the brain again.

Bai Wanwan seems to be very busy recently. Unlike before, she was always bombarded with news.

Shen Lu was also enjoying his leisure time, brushing his hair from time to time to see what was happening in the imperial capital recently.

Suddenly, Shen Lu came across the news of the attack on the Bai family.

It was said that an unknown organization took advantage of the wind and sand to ambush the streets at night and attacked the Bai family couple who were returning from a dinner party, causing one death and two injuries.

It was the driver who died. Bai's father was seriously injured and fell into a coma. Bai's mother had a broken arm and is now receiving treatment in the hospital.

It's been a few days since the incident happened, but Shen Lu didn't have much time to check TikTok or read the news these days, so he missed this article and didn't check it until today.

Shen Lu frowned and considered the words to send a message to Bai Wanwan.

Bai Wanwan was a little slow in replying to the message, and she was in a very low mood.

Bai Wanwan: My brother and I didn't go that night. We originally planned to go to your store to eat the next day. Alas...

Shen Lu: Is it convenient for me to visit now?

Bai Wanwan: Forget it. We haven't even investigated the background of the person who attacked us. You'd better not come, so as not to get into unnecessary trouble.

Because they don't know who the other person is, Bai Wanwan and Bai Lei have not gone to class recently, either at home or in the hospital.

Shen Lu didn't insist. Considering the current situation, it was better to listen to Bai Wanwan honestly.
