The Green Tea’s Crushing Victories in the ’70s

Chapter 447 - Tong Zhenzhen smiled triumphantly. (1)

Tong Xuelu said, “It is a good thing to skip a grade. I assume you have already completed 5th grade’s textbooks before you broached me with this idea?”

Tong Jiaming nodded. “I borrowed a classmate’s brother’s 5thgrade textbooks and had already gone through them over the winter vacation.”Tong Jiaxin’s eyes widened. “When did you do that, Second Brother? How come I didn’t know about that?”Tong Jiaming said nonchalantly. “I can study in between classes in the daytime or at night after I have completed my homework.”Tong Jiaxin looked at him as though he had seen a ghost. “I don’t get this at all. How is it possible to have people who enjoys studying as much as you do?”In addition to completing his own homework, his Second Brother also tutored himself and Mianmian at night. He hadn’t expected that his brother would use every spared moment to study textbooks from the next grade up. How could he do that to himself!Tong Xuelu was very impressed by Tong Jiaming’s self discipline. “If you are ready, I will go with you and talk to your teacher when school starts.”One cannot just skip a grade because one wanted to. He must take and pass an examination first.Tong Jiaming smiled. “Thank you, Big Sister.”Tong Xuelu, “When you have successfully skipped a grade, you can have any reward that you want.”Tong Jiaming’s eyes lit up some more. “Anything?”Tong Xuelu nodded, “Mmhmm.”She treated the three children fairly. Anyone who performed well would be awarded. Anyone who misbehaved would be punished.Tong Jiaxin, seeing that his Second Brother would be awarded, was filled with envy.Tong Mianmian blinked and also looked envious. “Big Sister, when can Mianmian start school? Mianmian wants to skip grade and get rewarded too!”Tong Xuelu rubbed her on her head. “You are still young. Still a couple of years away.”The little bun sighed like an adult when she heard that. Cupping her own cheek, she said, “I’ve around been around the blocks for 4 whole years, yet I still can’t attend school yet?”“Puuf……”Tong Xuelu finally busted out laughing when she heard that.Tong Jiaxin, seeing that even his little sister was so ambitious, started to feel threatened.***After the New Year, factories, CSMCs, restaurants and other businesses started reopening.Words of Tong Xuelu accompanying the translators to Yangzhou had already spread.Not only did she get to host foreign guests. She even get to accompany them to a different province. That was not an opportunity that everyone could have.Guo Chunyu, “You are so amazing Manager Tong. Compared to you, I’ve mounted up to nothing with my life!”The others all nodded in agreement.Tong Xuelu was just 19 and she was already the manager of a Tier 1 restaurant. Not to mention her Class A chef license. Now she had added hosting foreign guests to her resume and was highly regarded by the upper management of the Commerce Department. Manager Tong was simply amazing!Having such accomplishments at such a young age, certain she would go much further in her future!Tong Xuelu smiled and said, “C’mon now. Don’t underestimate yourself. You just have to seize the opportunity. Who is to say that you won’t become the manager of a restaurant in the future if you work hard?”Everybody were emotional and their faces flushed when they heard that. Tong Xuelu’s speech was definitely very motivational.Come to think about it, she, too, was just a server at the beginning. Who would have thought that she would become the manager of a restaurant one day?They may not be as competent as she was but, if they were to work hard and with a few years of experience under their belt, who was to say that the opportunity wouldn’t present itself to them one day?After the soup was done, Tong Xuelu started griping. “Truth be told, hosting foreign guests really wasn’t as glamourous as you think. I’ve got to think about what to make every day and worry that they would not feel that my service wasn’t top notched or that the upper management would not think that my performance was good enough.“It was a 14~15-hour train ride from Capital City to Yangzhou. It was already midnight by the time we arrived. It was raining and snowing outside and we were all freezing. And I couldn’t even rest after we got to the hotel. I had to cook for everyone! Look, I was short of getting frostbites!”
