I, reborn, really don't want to be a matchmaker!

The entrance to the breakfast shop.

It was almost 10 a.m.

But long lines of diners still formed to eat the rice noodles.

Upon seeing this, Qin Chaoyang immediately began assisting Zhou Jian without saying a word.

Seeing this, Tang Shuang couldn't help but whisper a reminder: "Chaoyang, you really need to hire more people for your breakfast shop, otherwise Zhou Jian and I will be too busy."

"Do you have any good candidates in mind?" Qin Chaoyang asked with a wry smile.

He knew that the breakfast shop needed to hire people to keep up with its current business, but hiring people wasn't something that could be done with just a few words. He needed to know them thoroughly and trust them.

Otherwise, it will not only fail to alleviate the pressure on Zhou Jian and Tang Shuang, but may also cause trouble for the breakfast shop.

"Where do I find a good candidate..." Tang Shuang's words were interrupted by a pair of sisters dressed in coarse linen clothes on the right side of the road: "Oh! Matchmaker Qin, I've finally found you!"

"So this is where your breakfast shop is! We've been looking for it for ages!"

"Huh?" Qin Chaoyang turned his head to look over.

Upon seeing that it was the Pan sisters, Xiaoju and Xiaoyu, speaking, he rubbed his forehead, looking quite troubled: "How did you two find your way here?"

"Of course I came to ask how things are going with the matchmaking you arranged for us," Pan Xiaoju replied with a resentful look. "It's been so long, why haven't we heard a single word?"

"It's making us wait at home every day, it's so frustrating," Pan Xiaoyu added.

"What's the use of your anxiety? The problem is there aren't any good, suitable candidates!" Qin Chaoyang said helplessly. "You didn't like the ones I introduced to you before. What can I do?"

"I don't care." Pan Xiaoju rolled up her sleeves and said while helping to clear the dishes, "Matchmaker Qin, you have to find a way to introduce me to a good match like Zhao Hu."

"Me too." Pan Xiaoyu helped clean up the entrance of the breakfast shop. "Matchmaker Qin, if you don't agree today, my sisters and I won't leave."

"Can you please stop calling me Matchmaker Qin?" Qin Chaoyang was on the verge of tears. He was truly doomed! How did he end up with these two sisters from the Pan family?

Hehe~~! Tang Shuang couldn't help but laugh out loud when she saw Qin Chaoyang's expression.

The diners queuing around for rice noodles all had a mocking look on their faces.

"I really didn't know! So Boss Qin's side business is matchmaking!"

"The name 'Matchmaker Qin' is quite unique, and it suits Boss Qin perfectly!"

"Boss Qin, I have an uncle who's almost forty. Can you help him find a match? Don't worry, a red envelope is no problem."

"Hahaha……"

……

"Go away! Go away! Go away! Stop making fun of me." Qin Chaoyang chuckled, but his smile was tinged with helplessness.

Seeing that Tang Shuang and Zhou Jian's pressure had eased considerably with Pan Xiaoju and Pan Xiaoyu's help, and that he no longer needed to assist, he immediately asked, "Have you two sisters been idle lately?"

"Yes," Pan Xiaoyu nodded.

"It's the off-season for farming now, what can we do?" Pan Xiaoju chimed in.

"How about you come and help out at my breakfast shop?" Qin Chaoyang asked.

"Okay! Okay!" Pan Xiaoyu agreed without even thinking.

"Is there a salary?" Pan Xiaoju asked excitedly.

"Of course, let's set the salary at eighty-one yuan per month for now! Room and board included, and we'll increase it later depending on the situation," Qin Chaoyang replied.

"Then I can go to work now." Pan Xiaoju took the empty bowls and chopsticks and went to the backyard to wash them.

Pan Xiaoyu wiped the table with increasing vigor.

After all, in the countryside, you might not even earn 80 yuan in net income in half a year of farming!

Qin Chaoyang smiled at the two sisters, and seeing that no one was collecting money, he quickly walked towards the old cash register.

……

Around noon.

The breakfast shop finally quieted down.

Just as Qin Chaoyang was about to calculate how much money he had made that day, the burly and strong Zhao Hu appeared at the entrance of the breakfast shop, leading the broad-shouldered and muscular Pan Daju.

This occurred.

To Qin Chaoyang's surprise, he said, "Why did you two come today?"

"I have some good news for you. Zhao Hu and I have decided to hold our wedding banquet on the 8th of next month. You, the matchmaker, absolutely must come and attend!" Pan Daju replied earnestly.

"Of course." Qin Chaoyang smiled and looked at Zhao Hu: "Why aren't you saying anything? Don't you welcome me to your wedding?"

"No, no," Zhao Hu waved his hand. "Now Daju is in charge of my family, and she makes all the decisions."

"I see!" Qin Chaoyang nodded. "Sister Daju, since you've invited me, are you going to invite your cousin Wang Xiaoli too?"

Zhao Hu understood the hidden meaning in her words, but Pan Daju didn't: "Of course I'll invite her, but I don't know where my cousin works at the Xiao Wu Hunan restaurant!"

"It's okay if you don't know, I can take you there." Qin Chaoyang gave Tang Shuang a few instructions and then led Zhao Hu and Pan Daju toward Xiao Wu Hunan Restaurant.

This is the busiest time for Xiao Wu Hunan Cuisine Restaurant. The main hall is packed, and even the open space at the entrance has three tables set up, attracting the attention of passersby.

Qin Chaoyang frowned when he saw this scene. Just as he was about to ask Li Mei, who was serving customers at the door, what was going on, he heard Wang Xiaoli arguing with someone in the hall.

"Huo Longquan, what do you mean? I already told you that if you need money, go to Boss Huo. You're coming to the cashier to ask Xiao Wen for it. How are we supposed to keep track of the accounts now?"

"Just do what you're supposed to do! Wang Xiaoli, don't act like you have a big deal out of nothing. Let me tell you, you're just a lowly accountant. I don't need your permission to take money."

"Who said I don't need to agree? Boss Huo and Boss Qin said that I would be fully responsible for the finances. Don't you understand what 'fully responsible' means?"

"Hey! You old hag, can't you understand a good argument? You dare to use your authority like a tiger? If you don't pay up, believe me, one phone call and my brother will kick you out!"

Huo Longquan's brother is Huo Zhenzhong, but they are not blood brothers, but cousins.

As cousins, Huo Longquan's blatant act of coming to the cashier to withdraw money clearly shows he's not a good person.

But Huo Zhenzhong, who rushed over from the second floor, acted as a peacemaker: "Alright, alright! Xiaoli! Stop arguing with my cousin, give him two hundred and tell him to leave quickly."

"He still hasn't paid back the 500 he took last time!" Wang Xiaoli reminded him.

"He doesn't need to pay it back," Huo Zhenzhong replied, his head aching.

Five hundred yuan was a small amount of money to him, and compared to the bond between him and his cousins, it was nothing.

"Then I'm quitting as accountant." Wang Xiaoli slammed the ledger on the cashier's counter, picked up her personal belongings, and walked towards the front door.

This wasn't her throwing a tantrum; it was because if Huo Zhenzhong continued to try to smooth things over like this, the accounts of Xiao Wu Hunan Restaurant would become unmanageable, and in the end, she would likely become the scapegoat.
