Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 263: 097: Mysterious Boss Tricks Zheng Xianjing, Rescuing Boss Ni_7

Continuing, Shangguan Xu said: “You did a favor for me, little girl, for which I haven’t properly thanked you. There’s a restaurant up ahead, how about we talk over a meal?”

“No need,” Ni Yang declined gracefully. “It was a mere trifle, Mr. Shangguan, don’t give it another thought.”

Ni Yang didn’t save people for rewards or for someone’s gratitude. She just couldn’t stand by and watch a vibrant life disappear before her eyes.

In her second life, she not only cherished her own life, but the lives of others as well.

“But…”

As Shangguan Xu tried to say something more, Ni Yang cut him off: “If you truly feel bad about it, Mr. Shangguan, why don’t you take this little friend home. It’s quite unsafe for her to be here alone with cars coming and going.”

“Beautiful sister, I have a name, I’m called Xiaoxue,” said the little girl, looking up at Ni Yang.

“Xiaoxue, would you like big brother to take you home?” Shangguan Xu stretched his hand out to Xiaoxue.

Xiaoxue slowly walked over, cautiously saying: “There are many human traffickers nowadays. Big brother, you’re not a bad person, right?”

Ni Yang replied: “Rest assured, Xiaoxue, this big brother is not a bad person.”

With her extensive experience, Ni Yang could easily discern good from bad. If not, she wouldn’t have so readily handed Xiaoxue over to him.

As for Shangguan Xu, he gave Ni Yang a thoughtful look.

Xiaoxue nodded, “Since beautiful sister said so, then I will go home with you.”

Shangguan Xu let out a soft laugh.

As they were leaving, Xiaoxue politely said goodbye to Ni Yang.

After walking a few steps, Shangguan Xu turned back to look at Ni Yang, “Little Miss, may I ask your name?”

“Ni Yang,” she replied with a light tone, “Ni of the character ‘£,’ the Yang of ‘i^FFIFIBg^W”

Ni Yang.

As expected, both the woman and her name were beautiful.

It definitely surpassed the common names like Chunhua and Qiuyue.

Shangguan Xu nodded before leading Xiaoxue towards his car.

Ni Yang approached Ni Cuihua, asking, “Mom, have you finished your shopping?”

Ni Cuihua was currently buying cured goods and hadn’t noticed the previous events. “I bought some cured chicken and fish. Do you see anything else we should get?”

Ni Yang looked at the cured goods stand, “Why don’t we get more smoked meat?”

Ni Cuihua nodded, “Alright, vendor, please cut us five pounds of smoked meat.”

By the time they finished purchasing the cured goods and returned to the Noodle Restaurant, it was already past four in the afternoon. The restaurant had already started doing business, and it was packed inside, with a long line outside to boot.

While Little Ni Yun was sleeping, Ni Cuihua also helped to cook the noodles and prepare the milk tea.

Ni Yang, on the other hand, was busy out front.

Even though Ni Cuihua had always known that the Noodle Restaurant and Milk Tea Shop were doing well, she hadn’t realized it was to this extent.

She had been there for almost an hour, and the line of people hadn’t decreased at all.

Despite being busy and tired, she felt happiness in her heart.

At seven-thirty in the evening, Ni Yang closed up shop promptly.

Today was payday. Ni Yang had the envelopes ready and handed them out to everyone. “Aunt Zhou, Aunt Jinfang, Aunt Cuiping, Aunt Xiaoqin, this is your monthly salary.”

Wang Jinfang looked at the money in the envelope. “Wait, Ni Yang, why is there an extra 60 yuan?”

The monthly salary was 60 yuan, but Ni Yang had given 120.

Hearing this, the others also checked their envelopes and found an extra 60 yuan.

Ni Yang explained with a smile: “The New Year is coming soon, this is your red envelope.”

Ni Yang was a good boss, she never mistreated her employees.

Hearing this, the four of them all declined.

The wages Ni Yang paid were already high, how could they accept her red envelope?

Ni Yang continued, “Aunties, please accept it. It’s a tradition to give red envelopes for good luck during the New Year. If you don’t accept it, it means you’re looking down on the amount.”

“No! No! We’re not looking down on the amount…”

Ni Yang interjected, “If that’s the case, just accept it. I’ll need you to put more effort into managing these two shops in the future.”

After the New Year, Ni Yang planned to further expand her business, so she wouldn’t have as much time to devote to these two shops.

Zhou Qingshang said with a smile, “Ni Yang, what are you talking about? It’s perfectly natural for us to work since you’re paying us.”

Han Xiaoqin and Wang Cuiping added, “Yes, yes, that’s right. We’re supposed to do this, Ni Yang, you don’t need to be so formal with us.”

Ni Yang continued, “Anyway, thank you for your hard work, aunties. Also, with the New Year approaching, I’ve decided that we’ll work till the 29th of the last lunar month and resume work on the 8th of the lunar New Year. During these seven days of rest, wages will still be paid normally.”

She wasn’t a stingy boss. She was aware that her employees needed properly arranged resting periods. Moreover, the New Year held great significance for Chinese people.

If they had to work even during the New Year, she would be an awful boss.

She wasn’t chasing after endless money and didn’t care about a few days.

Hearing this, the four of them were stunned. They didn’t expect Ni Yang not only to give them red packets but also to give them a New Year break!

“Ni Yang,” Wang Jinfang said, “actually, you don’t have to give us so many days off. Your business is so good, it would be a pity to close for so many days!”

The other three nodded. With the high salary Ni Yang gave, even if they didn’t get a single day off, none of them would have any complaints.

The two shops could earn two to three thousand yuan a day. After seven or eight days of rest, that could amount to tens of thousands of yuan!

Ni Yang explained with a smile, “That’s alright. Actually, during the New Year period, most people will be busy with their own affairs, and there won’t be many who will be dining out. Besides, you’ve been working hard for so long, it’s time you took a break. Also, after the New Year, I plan to hire a few more people from our village to help out and implement a rotation system for rest days, where everyone can have a day off every week.”
