Bringing my kids to set up stalls, I made thousands of people cry with envy

Chapter 318: Oh no! Dad is missing!

While the man was still savoring the aftertaste of the powder, there was a sudden sound of dense footsteps in the corridor.

All the aunts and uncles rushed in, surrounded the man, looked left and right, and all had question mark faces.

"What happened?"

Naturally, the younger sister would not miss this good opportunity to insult her brother, and immediately began to describe it vividly.

what?
You're trying to steal food from other people's bowls? ! How shameful!
Everyone was stunned.

"That's right!" my sister added fuel to the fire, "The staff even picked up a stool and wanted to hit him!"

man:……

What a scam!
His ears turned red with shame and he glared at his sister.

"Ahem, I was just too hungry... I couldn't control myself for a moment!"

"It's just a bowl of noodles. We sell them downstairs. Let's go home and eat."

A grandmother with a cane squeezed to the front, pulling her grandson.

"It's different, completely different."

"When the food comes out from the cafeteria, you'll know after you try it. If it doesn't taste good, you can kill me!"

The man swore solemnly, his eyes shining with excitement.

"Pah, pah, pah, stop saying those stupid words. Poor grandpa of yours... wuwu..."

The keyword was suddenly triggered, and grandma couldn't help but wipe her tears with a handkerchief.

Then he tapped the floor solemnly with his cane.

"Let's go! Your grandpa is getting cold in the jar. Let's settle him down first."

The words awakened the man from his dream, and he finally remembered the important matter.

I looked at my watch and saw that there were still more than three hours before the cafeteria opened for lunch.

He swallowed and counted down silently in his mind.

Okay, then let’s take care of grandpa first.

As soon as the family members left, the two staff members popped their heads out of the window, smacking their lips and complaining:
"I am really impressed. How can there be such a person?"

I ate two rice noodles, which made me feel bad! They absorbed the essence of the broth!
"That's right, you said that our working environment has to be protected from fire and theft, and also from family members stealing food. Fuck me."

The two were complaining enthusiastically when He Jie came over with a wrinkled nose and a curious look on his face.

"What the hell are you two doing? Why is there such a strong smell?"

"Um... nothing, just minced meat noodles, Uncle He!"

The tall and thin man quickly handed over the bowl as if he was presenting a treasure, with a smile on his face.

After all, if you slack off and eat noodles at work, you will be fined if you are really investigated.

It’s better to strike first and try to please them first.

He Jie's eyes lit up and he was very surprised.

“Wow, it looks pretty good!”

The young people looked at him expectantly and urged him to try it quickly.

He Jie didn't mind, he picked up the big bowl and took a sip.

"Ha~"

"Slurp~ Um...you two shouldn't stand here anymore, there are people waiting in line outside to get into the furnace."

As he slurped the noodles, he gave vague instructions, determined to keep the two portions of private noodles for himself.

Young people: ...

Good, old fox! Just give it a try, is this really the right thing for you to do? !
……

Eleven o'clock noon.

After strolling around the area, Su Chen and Butler Ding arrived at the cafeteria on time, changed their clothes, and went straight to the rice noodle stall.

Master Kong came earlier than usual, and when he saw Su Chen, his attitude became more attentive.

"Um, Brother Su, I've cleaned up the countertops at the rice noodle stall."

"Call me anytime if you need me."

Master Kong knew that Su Chen was a real talent, although he didn't understand why the other party would condescend to come to such a stall.

But that didn't stop him from holding on to that thigh tightly.

Of course, the most important thing is to maintain good relationships so that you can get more bowls of rice noodles.

"Excuse me, if you want to eat rice noodles, just tell me."

Su Chen expressed his gratitude, which was also very tactful. If you can handle the relationship with your colleagues well, you can save a lot of trouble, so why not do it?

After chatting for a while, Su Chen and Butler Ding began to grind the rice flour.

As for Master Kong's fried rice stall, only a few portions were sold out in the morning, so naturally the ingredients were fully prepared.

He was playing games out of boredom when the phone suddenly rang.

As soon as the call was connected, I heard my wife howling in tears.

"Lao Kong, it's bad! Dad is missing!"

"I forgot to lock the door when I went to the toilet, and he slipped out! Where could he, an old man with dementia, go? It's all my fault, all my fault..."

When Master Kong heard this, his heart skipped a beat and his palms began to sweat.

However, now is not the time to complain.

The old man is confused and sometimes doesn't even recognize his family members.

If something goes wrong, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Don't worry, look around your home first and ask your neighbors if they've seen him. I'll take a day off and be back soon!"

Master Kong suppressed his panic, briefly explained the situation to the canteen manager, and hurried home.

……

After half an hour.

At the entrance of the funeral home, a group of family members were queuing up to enter.

Some people in the team were sobbing quietly, while others were wiping their tears silently.

No one noticed.

An old man in a gray cloth shirt and with gray hair was following the team tremblingly.

"Hey, old man, are you also a family member?"

The staff at the door glanced at him and asked casually.

The old man raised his head, a trace of confusion flashed in his turbid eyes, then he nodded and spoke vaguely.

"Yes, yes, let me see..."

The staff didn't think much about it and, adhering to the principle of less trouble is better, waved his hand and let him in.

The old man followed the team slowly, looking around.

Although he suffers from dementia, his legs and feet are still quite nimble.

After entering the funeral home, he turned left and right and finally found his way to the crematorium.

The old man walked closer and closer, staring blankly at the busy staff inside, muttering to himself.

"Here...where is this?"

He Jie was busy operating the crematorium. When he looked up, he saw the old man acting suspiciously at the door. He was stunned for a moment and quickly walked over.

"Old man, why are you here? You can't just come in here!"

The old man seemed not to hear.

He was still staring at the crematorium with empty eyes and muttering to himself over and over again.

"Burned... all burned..."

He Jie frowned, feeling a little uneasy.

Could it be that he is here to see his old friend off for the last time?

Just as I was thinking about how to deal with it, another 'person' came forward.

He Jie had to turn around and go back to work. The old man took the opportunity to escape and dived into the crowd.

He walked unsteadily along the corridor with his back hunched.

Suddenly, the old man's wrinkled nostrils flared wildly twice, as if he smelled something extraordinary.

The smell gently lingered around his nose, making him feel refreshed.

Sniff…

The aroma became stronger and stronger, like the salty and fresh taste of fried sauce and the mellow taste of minced meat. It pierced his skull like a hook and hooked his soul.

The old man's throat rolled, and saliva dripped down his three white beards, stretching out long, shiny silk threads.

"Eat! Eat...I must eat..."
