After being widowed, I pampered the rough man general by farming

I wish Jiang Jiang to sleep until the afternoon.

After getting up and having a meal, he drove the carriage out alone.

She walked around the factory, the restaurant, the tea mountain, and the shrimp pond. Because of what happened last night, not many people went home from the holiday today, and everyone still insisted on their posts.

The factory had to rush to produce cotton for customers who needed to buy new quilts, so they didn't go back, Zhu Jiangjiang can understand.

It's just that why didn't the people in the restaurant leave alone?

"Shen Xiao, why is the front hall of the restaurant still receiving guests? Didn't you ask you to go back and prepare for the New Year?"

Zhu Jiangjiang came to the back kitchen and asked Shen Xiao.

According to what I said before, one or two people are left in the back kitchen to cook for the guests who live in the homestay, and the restaurant is no longer open.

But when she came over today, she found that there were not only people in the lobby of the restaurant, but also many people!

what 's wrong?

Shen Xiao was frying the vegetables in his hand, but just looked back at Zhu Jiangjiang.

"Shopkeeper, we just asked about this matter. It is said that because of the cold wave, the road to the north is difficult. The merchants passing by did not dare to take risks, so they transferred to us to stay for a few days. They said that they would check the situation before making a decision. don't go."

"Can't even go with the carriage?"

Zhu Jiangjiang's face was startled, for some reason, she suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart.

In the previous life, there were a lot of news about traffic being paralyzed due to cold waves and snowstorms. Could it be that they are also encountering this kind of problem now?

In order to determine the severity of the cold wave, she turned around and went to the lobby of the restaurant.

The people sitting in the lobby all looked very familiar, and their accents were also different. It could be seen that none of them were natives of Jiangnan Town.

Some of them were sitting around booths, warming up with hot tea prepared for them in the shop, waiting for the food to be served.

Some are crowded in front of the counter, grabbing the vacant rooms of the B & B, and the whole lobby is extremely noisy.

The reason for such a chaotic and noisy situation is mostly because of being trapped by the cold wave, which caused everyone to be so anxious.

Zhu Jiangjiang found a random guest, sat down and chatted with them.

"Auntie, are you passing by here, are you going home for the New Year?"

A pair of seven or eight-year-old children were sitting on the left and right of the woman, and a thirteen or fourteen-year-old son was sitting on the opposite side. The four of them were dressed in thin clothes and held hot teacups in their hands to keep warm.

Seeing Zhu Jiangjiang sit down, the woman didn't reject her, but complained to her instead.

"Oh, it's unlucky. My husband-in-law and I took the children back to my mother's house, thinking that I would be able to return home for the New Year a few years ago. Who knew that the cold wave came and we couldn't go."

Zhu Jiangjiang: "Did you come back because of a cold wave on the way back, or did you hear someone say it?"

The woman: "For the Chinese New Year, if we can go back, we will try our best to go. If we really can't go, how can we go back?"

This family tried to go north and back, but encountered a cold wave that hit the south on the way.

The wind and snow covered the way home, and with the drizzle of the past two days, the road was so slippery that they couldn't walk at all, so they had to retreat.

The people in the booth next to them heard the conversation between the two, and joined in, complaining together.

"I'm not like you."

A man said: "I didn't pass by here at all on my way home. I just heard people say that I couldn't go ahead on the way home, so I followed everyone to Jiangnan Town. They said that there are rich food products here, at least I won't be hungry. death, so I came."

This... is this a compliment to Jiangnan Town?Detour to come here too.

However, from their complaints, Zhu Jiangjiang got a lot of useful information.

Now we can know that this year's cold wave is extremely severe.

Roads are blocked by ice, travelers are trapped, and there are many people who cannot return home.

I don't know if Pei Ji can come back on time?

"Girl, I know that your guest rooms are limited, but can you accommodate us? Our family can squeeze together, otherwise, we will freeze to death outside."

There seemed to be a dispute over the counter.

Du Guijuan, who was in charge of the accountant of the restaurant, looked embarrassed and tried to explain to everyone, but couldn't bear it.

She didn't want to see them freeze to death outside, but the beds in the homestay were fixed, so she didn't care how to arrange them.

"Guijuan, open a room for them."

Zhu Jiangjiang squeezed into the crowd in front of the counter, "Don't worry, everyone, as long as you have discussed it yourself and are willing to squeeze, we will arrange it for you."

Du Guijuan's original intention was the same. Now that Zhu Jiangjiang agreed, she immediately arranged for everyone.

There are more guests, and the quilts in the guest rooms are definitely not enough.

Zhu Jiangjiang then left again and went to the guest room department of the hotel, asking the people in the store to take out the old quilts that were used before, and use the old and new quilts together.

Just because of the sudden arrival of the guests, the staff of restaurants and B&Bs had to work overtime.

Regarding overtime work, after arranging the guests, Zhu Jiangjiang called everyone and held a special meeting.

At the meeting, she had a guilty expression on her face, "I'm really sorry everyone, judging from the current situation, this year's Chinese New Year, everyone may not be able to go back."

Du Guijuan, who had been busy at the counter all day and listened to the difficulties of the guests, spoke first.

"Shopkeeper, I heard that this cold wave is very serious. Today's guests have come to take refuge with us. If we don't take them in, maybe people will die."

"Ah? Is it so serious?" Others were in an uproar.

"It's true. I heard from some guests that their carriage was stuck in the snowstorm the day before yesterday, and it was frozen for half a day. If the passing team hadn't used a rope to pull their carriage out of the snowstorm, they might have died. died."

Du Guijuan shared what she heard with everyone in a serious manner.

It is not known whether it is true or not, but after the shrimp pond incident last night, everyone has their own ideas.

Jiangnan Town, a town in the south, has not seen snow for several years, but this year it is freezing cold.

Such an abnormal sign indicated that other places must have had a worse time.

"Anyway, if the guests are here, we have to be here." Zhu Jiangjiang said again, "But during the Chinese New Year, everyone can arrange a shift, each of them has a day off, and go back to have a meal with the family."

When the restaurant first recruited employees, most of the applicants were from the city.

There are no villages far away, one day is enough for them to go back and have a meal.

Zhu Jiangjiang also knows that this is very inhumane, but she really has no choice but to give them a make-up leave after a year.

"Shopkeeper, we have nothing to do with each other. At worst, I can ask my parents to come and see me during the Chinese New Year." Du Guijuan comforted Zhu Jiangjiang.

Everyone can see and remember how Zhu Jiangjiang treats them.

Now is the time when the restaurant needs them, and it is not a big deal for them to miss a year. Besides, during the Chinese New Year last year, Zhu Jiangjiang was also busy, and he did not feel at ease during the New Year.

The shopkeepers are all so hardworking, how can they have the nerve to ask for so much?

"Thank you everyone, I will treat you to this year's New Year's Eve dinner. You can order whatever you want, and I will double the red envelopes." Zhu Jiangjiang stopped being hypocritical, and it's better to have something practical.

"Great……"

Hearing that the red envelopes are doubled, everyone was overjoyed.

In addition to working overtime on holidays from now on, the salary will be doubled. Under the temptation of money, nothing is considered a problem.
