Wang Jian paused for a moment and continued, “First of all, I think my cooking is average. If I really follow you to a restaurant, what if the tourists are dissatisfied with my cooking and don’t come in the future? Wouldn’t you spend money to hire me for nothing? Secondly, 70 yuan is too much. I work myself to death every day for a month and only earn 60 yuan.”

After Wang Jian finished speaking, even Xu Hui chimed in, “That’s right. Furthermore, my lover and I aren’t professional chefs. I’m really afraid of ruining your shop.”

So that was what they were worried about!

Song Yao couldn’t help but smile. “You don’t have to worry about that at all. I’ve already said that I’ll write down the recipe for your cooking and give it to you. You can find an opportunity to practice. In addition, we have a very professional chef in our shop. Learn from her. In less than a month, the chefs in the big restaurant will definitely fight for you guys!”

“That won’t do!” Hearing Song Yao’s words, Wang Jian was shocked. “Since I learned it from you, how can I be a chef elsewhere? That’s too unethical!”

Song Yao was amused by Wang Jian’s words. “I’m just giving an example.”

Xu Hui also smiled. “However, Yao, is what you said true? You’re still providing food and accommodation for 70 yuan a month?”

In her heart, Xu Hui thought that this job was too easy. She could actually earn more than 70 yuan a month just by cooking a meal. Didn’t that mean that she could earn more than 800 yuan a year?

If he saved up for another two years, he could buy another decent big house!

Song Yao said, “It’S definitely true! Besides, I’m Captain Zu0’S wife. I can run but I can’t hide. Don’t worry!”

After hearing Song Yao’s words, the two of them were relieved. However, Wang Jian had always been brooding about the salary. “70 yuan is too high. Can you give me 50 yuan first? Give me 70 yuan when we’ve become more confident.”

Wang Jian even felt that 50 yuan was too much. After all, he had never been a chef. What if he messed

Song Yao also understood Wang Jian’s thoughts. She said, “It’s fine if you think that way. After all, there has to be a beginning for everything. When someone likes your food, it won’t be too late for me to consider giving you a raise.”

Hearing Song Yao’s words, Wang Jian’s worried heart was finally relieved!

“That’s for the best! But don’t worry, I won’t let you down. I’ll work hard to raise my salary as soon as possible and let my wife and the child in her stomach live a good life!”

Even Xu Hui was very happy. After her husband went to Song Yao’s place, he no longer had to work hard to earn money like now!

She smiled and held Song Yao’s hand. “Yao! I don’t know how to thank you! You encouraged me to go back to school and arranged a job for my Wang Jian! You’re simply my lucky star!”

Song Yao was a little embarrassed. “It’s not that exaggerated. It’s just that my shop is short of people. I think your husband’s culinary skills are not bad. I can take a look.”

“Oh, don’t be so humble.”

Xu Hui held Song Yao’s hand. “It’S one thing for your lover to be my Wang Jian’S savior, but you even helped my Wang Jian solve his work problem. How should I thank you in the future?”

Song Yao: “Actually, there’s no need to be so polite. You treat me as a sister, so of course I treat you as a friend. Shouldn’t friends help each other?”

After she finished speaking, she seemed to have suddenly thought of something. “By the way, you keep saying that Zuo Huo is your husband’s savior. What’s going on?”

“You mean this?” Wang Jian sighed when he heard this. “That’s a long story.”

“Back then, I was trapped in the cave on a dangerous mission with Captain Zuo. That was when the bad guys cut my left cheek. At that time, we survived in the cave for eight days.”

“In the past eight days, not only did we have to find food in such a difficult situation, but we also had to guard against those evil people with ill intentions. In the end, the organization finally found us, but because of the lack of resources, only eight people could be saved. In other words, one of the nine of us had to sacrifice himself.”

“But Captain Zuo gave up the chance to be rescued for the sake of all of us. We cried and begged him, but he refused no matter what..”
