This time when he went south to Shenzhen City, Zhao Qinglan didn't stay long and left quickly.
But before she left, she also asked the girl who was left behind by Song Yi to see if Wang Fei had contacted her again.
The girl gave a negative answer, which also confirmed that the other person was a scumbag.
Zhao Qinglan was not surprised, but she felt that the other party might be Wang Xiaofei. It was a pity that the girl didn't keep a photo of this scumbag ex, otherwise Zhao Qinglan would really be able to identify him.
A few days after she returned home, her mother also came back from the capital.
As soon as she came back this time, Mrs. Sun completely lived in Da Wa, waiting for Da Wa to finish her high school entrance examination.
Zhao Qinglan felt very happy when her mother talked about her sister's colorful life in the capital.
My sister is now a strong woman who can open a store on her own.
Zhao Qinglan can understand her mother's concession when facing her sister's in-laws.
This is just a kind of wisdom in life, and it will virtually reduce a lot of misunderstandings and troubles.
Of course, these are all based on the premise that the Wei family is good to their sister.
If the Wei family dared to bully her sister like this, their natal family members would immediately stand up and help their sister make the decision.
Now that Zhao Qinglan travels far away, the children will get used to it.
When her mother is not at home, Xiaoduo often takes on the cooking duties at home.
The second child felt that he had to rely on his sister to make a living, so he took over the job of washing vegetables and dishes, euphemistically saying that he would use his talents.
Xiaoduo has long been accustomed to her brother's "humor" from time to time.
Sanwa is the one responsible for eating ready-made meals.
Li Huai originally couldn't stand the sight of his younger son enjoying the benefits, but both Xiaoduo and Erwa agreed that the youngest brother should be protected, and they were also familiar with Sanwa's character, so they didn't let Li Huai, the father, exert his power.
Li Huai became worried about his younger son's future.
It was fine when they were at home. Their parents and brothers and sisters were there, so the third baby was fine. But what if the third baby went out later?
As soon as Zhao Qinglan came back from Shenzhen City, Li Huai expressed his worries.
Zhao Qinglan glanced at her husband helplessly.
"You underestimate Sanwa too much. He is just lazy at home, but he is actually smart. If he really goes out, you really don't have to worry."
Among the children, she is least worried about the eldest child, who is calm and steady, followed by the third child, who is dark and clever.
What really worried her was Erwa and Xiaoduo.
The second baby has a rougher temper and sometimes follows his temper, while Xiaoduo is more worried about her daughter suffering a loss outside because she is a girl.
The couple had a good discussion with their children from eldest to youngest.
Only then did Li Huai realize that the most worrying child in the family was actually the second baby.
Although he, a father, cares about his children on weekdays, he is not as careful as women after all, and he really doesn't know as much as his wife about some details.
However, the children are generally very good. At least when outsiders mention his children, they mostly praise and envy them.
After coming back and resting for a few days, Zhao Qinglan started working on other new stores again, and occasionally found time to visit other stores.
She still stays in the company's office most of her working hours.
Because of the things at hand, Wu Mei was not in the office much. Most of the time, Zhao Qinglan, the old accountant, and the girl doing chores were there.
After seeing the renovation progress of the new store, she returned to the office and sat down, when Wu Mei came.
"Sister-in-law, you are a rare visitor." She teased, but as soon as she finished speaking, she saw that Wu Mei's face was not very good.
"Qinglan, let me tell you something."
"Okay, let's talk. Zhao Qinglan stood up and closed the door.
“The kitchen in this store keeps losing things lately.”
"Throwing something?" Zhao Qinglan was a little surprised. "What have you lost?"
"It's just some meat, eggs, and oil noodles. It's not much each time, but over time, it adds up to a lot." Wu Mei was very angry when she mentioned this.
Zhao Qinglan suddenly became serious.
The stolen items may not be of high value, but may be of a bad nature.
What happened twice this time may have been stolen by outsiders, but it was definitely an insider who stole it this time.
"How long has this been going on?"
"It's been two months, and I only found it twice last month. I thought it was a statistical error. This month, it was found once every two or three days. The chef realized something was wrong, so he came to tell me."
"Anyone suspicious?"
"Everyone in the store has the opportunity to enter the kitchen, so they are all suspected at the moment."
Zhao Qinglan didn't understand anything after hearing this. It was probably because of this that the person who stole things felt confident.
As long as he is not caught on the spot, everyone in the store will probably be fired, and the store will never open.
Although Zhao Qinglan had interviewed everyone who had been able to enter the store, nothing could be 100% accurate. She only regretted that she did not have the conditions to install surveillance cameras in the store, otherwise they would not have had such a headache.
"In this case, don't alert the enemy first. Let's investigate secretly." After much thought, this was the safest option.
"Okay, Qinglan, I am also responsible for this matter. It took me so long to find out. Don't worry, I will definitely catch the thief who stole the things."
Zhao Qinglan smiled. "Okay, then I'll wait for you, sister-in-law, to show off your power."
He said that he would let Wu Mei handle it, but Zhao Qinglan still went to the store to see it twice.
She didn't pay much attention to the employees in the store before, but these two times she came here, she didn't miss any of them.
Needless to say, her observation really narrowed down the scope of suspects.
This person who stole things couldn't just take things out of the store openly. She just looked at who always came in and out with a bag.
After all, the weather is warm now and everyone is not wearing too much clothing. It is not practical to hide things under clothes and take them out.
After narrowing down the hot area, she also quietly ventilated Wu Mei, saving Wu Mei from doing useless work.
Knowing how Zhao Qinglan reasoned, Wu Mei admired her very much.
With the joint efforts of Zhao Qinglan and Wu Mei, they finally narrowed the suspects down to two.
Both of these military families like to bring a bag with a large capacity to work, and they go into the kitchen more frequently than other employees. They also like to spend more time in the kitchen, sometimes talking to the people in the kitchen, sometimes just simply
of doing nothing.
Zhao Qinglan does not require employees to work diligently every minute and every second during working hours. After all, it is okay for everyone to relax and rest a little when there are no customers.
But if you have bad intentions, that's a different matter.
She also found out the information that the two military family members filled in when they joined the company and studied it carefully.
Wu Mei is still keeping a close eye on her here, and Zhao Qinglan is not idle either.
After buying a yard outside, she rarely went home to her family's apartment.
However, in order to investigate the theft in the store, she went back to live in the family building.
Of course, she and her husband only live in the building, and the children still live in their own yard.
Li Huai didn't care, he just thought that the couple left the children and lived in a world of two.
Zhao Qinglan also used the pretense of coming back to stay for two days, and by the way, she went to the family area to learn about the specific conditions of the two military families' homes.
The things filled in on the form are not as detailed and accurate as her own understanding.
