Chapter: 2154

The food and dishes are not special, not only not tasty but also lacking in oil and water.

But Xiao Lao Tai Tai had been hungry for too long.

At this moment, giving her a bowl of plain rice would be considered a heavenly treat.

If there were some vegetable dishes to go with it, that would truly be exhilarating, making one's soul soar.

After eating and drinking their fill, Elderly Lady also got a burst of energy and started pulling plastic bags without a hitch.

On the contrary, Elderly Lady began to feel some joy in what she was doing.

Until 5 pm in the afternoon, as scheduled, it was time to leave.

The manager came over and gave her one hundred yuan, saying, "Elderly Lady, today's work is really good. Will you come tomorrow? Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and at noon, it will be the busiest time. If you come then, I'll give you two hundred yuan!"

"Really?" Xiao Lao Tai Tai was thrilled, carefully putting that one hundred yuan into her pocket while excitedly saying, "Then I'll come again tomorrow!"

The manager nodded satisfactorily: "Alright, go back and rest first, and then come back early at 9 am tomorrow."

Xiao Lao Tai Tai was thrilled to agree, and then suddenly thought of something, saying: "Manager, what time will we have lunch at the canteen this afternoon?"

The manager said: "We'll have lunch at 6 pm."

Xiao Lao Tai Tai asked hastily: "Can I go back to the canteen for another meal then?"

The manager hesitated slightly and said: "However, an employee can only issue one meal ticket per day, and you already received a meal ticket at noon, didn't you?"

Xiao Lao Tai Tai heard this and nodded slightly in disappointment: "Oh well, I'll come again tomorrow!"

The manager saw her looking downcast and couldn't bear it, saying: "Alright, Xiao Tai Tai, you can add another shift and work until 7 pm. I'll apply to the manager for an extra meal ticket, and then you can go back to the canteen for lunch and head home afterwards, okay?"

Xiao Lao Tai Tai listened to this and was thrilled in her heart, thinking: "If I can squeeze in two more hours of work, I can get another meal! Of course, I'll agree!"

So she said enthusiastically: "Okay, Manager! Thank you, Manager!"

Xiao Lao Tai Tai had never been as excited as today, all for a meal and trembling with joy from head to toe.

She followed the manager's instructions and worked in the supermarket until 7 pm, finally receiving the meal ticket she had been longing for.

Although she had eaten her fill at noon, Xiao Lao Tai Tai was still like a dog that hadn't eaten for three days, devouring the food in the canteen to the point where she couldn't even stand up.

She rested for half an hour on her seat before managing to get up with the help of the table.

After eating and drinking, she felt revitalized too.

Xiao Lao Tai Tai wiped her mouth with her hand and patted her stomach contentedly, exclaiming: "Who would have thought that after working so hard, eating would be this delicious! Today is truly a meal fit for a king!"

Then, Old Lady looked at the time and found it was already past 8 pm, so she decided to hurry home. JrNovels.com
