Chapter 410 Jiang Niandi's Grocery Store
Chapter 410 Jiang Niandi's Grocery Store
"Boss, you're already such an adult, why are you still so greedy?"
"Oh, by the way, call Lao Si and tell her that Duoduo's classmates have arrived. Ask her to close the shop and come over with Hu Bao for dinner."
Jiang Niandi's grocery store has been open for more than two months and is doing good business.
The niche accessories in her store are very popular among the little girls in the school.
When the grocery store opened, Jiang Duoduo was still on a business trip.
The second and third sons came over from their hometown to help for a week.
Jiang Duoduo also asked the company to send eight flower baskets for the opening ceremony and a lucky cat to be placed at the cash register.
While the eldest brother was calling the fourth brother, Chen Shuyue had already prepared the chicken soup in the pot.
Jiang Nian Di knew that some customers were coming to eat, so she immediately closed the shop door after receiving the call from her elder sister, and then hung a small sign on the door that read, "The owner is having dinner, and the business will be suspended for one hour."
Every time Jiang Nian Di went back to Chen Shuyue's place for dinner, she would hang a sign at the door of the store, so that customers who wanted to buy things in the store would basically come back an hour later.
Gradually, the customers who frequently came to the grocery store learned that the owner would close the store for an hour during meal times, so everyone would consciously avoid meal times to shop.
After Jiang Niandi came over with Hu Bao, everyone sat down to eat together.
As the store was busy at lunchtime, Chen Shuyue and Zeng Mingming ate a few bites quickly before going out to do other work.
"Mingming, let's continue eating. My mom and the others will come over to eat after they're done with their work. That's how it is in the restaurant industry; it's always busy around mealtime."
The eldest sister Jiang Lai Di served Zeng Mingming a bowl of old hen soup that Chen Shuyue had just cooked, and she took a big chicken leg of the old hen and started to eat it.
"Thank you, sister! I feel bad for coming over to eat when you're so busy."
Zeng Mingming heard Jiang Duoduo say that her mother's store was doing pretty well, but she didn't expect it to be so good.
It's been almost an hour since she arrived at the store, and there has been a constant stream of customers, whether dining in or taking out.
The waitress at the door fried the pot stickers very quickly.
"Mingming, please don't be polite with us. Duoduo said you were her best roommate in college, like a real sister. How can you be so polite when real sisters come to your house for dinner?"
The boss's mouth! Not only can he eat, he can also talk nonsense.
But Jiang Duoduo was quite satisfied with what she said. She was afraid that her elder sister would say something offensive.
Although she has a good relationship with Zeng Mingming, she is also afraid that her family will inexplicably sabotage them.
The fourth child was not as talkative as the eldest. She just smiled and asked Zeng Mingming to eat the food, and let Hu Bao babble and call her auntie.
Little Tiger, who is less than one year old, naturally can’t call Auntie yet, but he can say to Zeng Mingming in a baby voice, “Agu…Agu…”
"Hahaha... Little Tiger is so cute! Auntie will buy you a toy later."
Zeng Mingming gently pinched Hu Bao's pink little face with her hand, and her eyes were suddenly filled with maternal light.
"No, no, I have all the toys for children in my store. It's just that Tiger Bao is still young and can't play with many of the toys yet."
Jiang Niandi quickly waved her hands and smiled, telling Zeng Mingming not to spend money.
"How can it be considered a big expense to buy a small toy? What kind of store do you run, Fourth Sister? Duoduo and I will go over and take a look later!"
Zeng Mingming also followed Jiang Duoduo in calling Jiang Niandi "Fourth Sister". She seemed particularly easy to get along with when talking to people who had the right magnetic field for her.
However, when she meets someone with a different temperament or values, the temper of the eldest daughter who has lived a privileged life since childhood will come out.
"It's a small grocery store that sells niche clothes, accessories, bags, and also some student stationery and children's toys. If you're interested, I'll take you there after dinner."
Jiang Niandi looked at Zeng Mingming and said with a smile.
"Then I'll go too! I'll show some scrunchies to my Dongdong and Lele."
The boss chatted while chewing on a chicken leg.
"Don't go, big sister. The store is busy right now. You still have to take over their meal later. Let me help you look after Dongdong and Lele's hair bands!"
Jiang Duoduo directly blocked her eldest sister's idea of going to her fourth sister's store to get things for free.
Although a few hairbands are not worth much, once the eldest sister goes there, it is no longer just a matter of a few hairbands.
She had just been to Fourth Sister's store a few days ago.
He picked out a set of clothes for himself, the most expensive toy for Lele, and said that Dongdong's schoolbag was old.
The fourth sister asked her to pick out a new schoolbag for Dongdong by herself. The eldest sister also picked out a pencil case while picking out the new schoolbag.
Jiang Duoduo saw through the boss's little tricks clearly.
In the past, it was okay for her to take advantage of her husband's family because they were poor, but now the couple earns over 10,000 yuan a month at her mother's store, and she still likes to take advantage.
Fourth sister is embarrassed to say that Jiang Duoduo will not tolerate it.
"Okay then! Duoduo, pick out a few nice ones for them. Especially Lele, as children running around can easily fall off."
When Jiang Lai Di saw Duo Duo say that the store was busy and couldn't let her go, she didn't insist. She felt that it didn't matter if Duo Duo chose, as long as it didn't cost her money.
……
After having lunch at the breakfast shop, Jiang Duoduo and Zeng Mingming followed the fourth child Jiang Niandi to her shop for a stroll.
Zeng Mingming picked out two very delicate hairpins for herself in the store, and a battery-powered toy digging machine the size of a palm for Hu Bao.
She had heard from her colleagues that children all liked to play with excavators.
So she picked out an excavator for her sister Duoduo's tiger baby. However, when she checked out, Jiang Niandi said she wouldn't take any money from her.
"Duoduo, look at your sister. How can you open a shop and do business without charging money?"
Zeng Mingming couldn't persuade Jiang Niandi, so he had to find Jiang Duoduo.
"Haha, Mingming, just take it! This isn't your first time in my sister's shop. I'll definitely charge you next time!"
Jiang Duoduo looked down at a row of children's hair bands and replied to Zeng Mingming with a smile.
"No way! If your sister doesn't want the money, I won't take the hairpin! As for the toy for Tiger Bao, I'll go buy it at another store now!"
Zeng Mingming took out the hairpins that were already in the bag and put them back in their original place, then pretended to go to other stores to have a look.
"Zeng Mingming! You...can you still be a good friend?"
Jiang Duoduo grabbed Zeng Mingming and said, "How about this! You and my sister should each take a step back."
"Let my sister give you these two hairpins! You're giving that toy to Tiger Bao. Let my sister give you a discount and you can pay for it. That should be fine, right?"
Zeng Mingming still felt that this was not acceptable. She only paid for a toy, but Jiang Duoduo actually wanted to give her a discount.
Did Zeng Mingming lack money? She had never lacked money since she was a child!
In the end, Jiang Duoduo took a step back and let the fourth sister take the money with peace of mind. The eldest lady was rich and powerful and didn't need a discount!
