“I remember the exact time the mother and son bought their tickets. If I just pull out the payment receipts from before and after that period, everything will be clear.”

"Ms. Ma, do you still insist that they paid by scanning a QR code?"

Jiang Duoduo's gaze instantly turned cold, making Ma Hongjuan shudder.

"Why aren't you telling the truth right now!"

Zhang Shui was so angry that he raised his hand, almost slapping Ma Hongjuan.

"Well... your friend Tian Chao's wife came over yesterday to chat, and she mentioned that her son Xiao Wen wanted to go to the orchard. I... I blurted out that Xin Xin Orchard is all your business, and that she should take Xiao Wen there tomorrow, and you should take care of the tickets for them!"

"I'm just an employee, how am I supposed to get tickets for them? You stupid woman, you really know how to set me up!"

Zhang Shui was so angry that he clenched his teeth. How was he going to handle this situation now?

"I know you definitely won't agree to the free admission, and then I'll have to pay for it out of my own pocket for them. I... I just didn't want to spend the family's money, so I... I secretly gave them the free admission..."

Ma Hongjuan spoke haltingly, making Jiang Duoduo want to laugh.

I thought to myself, Zhang Shuisheng really does have a terrible teammate who's impossible to carry!

“Boss Jiang, this is all my fault for not managing properly. I will fine you three times the ticket price, and I will not let Ma Hongjuan come to the orchard again.”

"Because this work error has caused economic losses to the orchard, I request that Mr. Jiang deduct my year-end bonus for this year!"

Zhang Shuisheng didn't know how Jiang Duoduo would handle the matter, but as an orchard manager, he was keenly aware of the losses his mistakes had caused to the orchard.

Therefore, before Jiang Duoduo could even speak, he took a drastic step against himself.

You should know that his annual year-end bonus is 10,000 yuan.

In their rural area, some people work hard and still can't save 10,000 yuan by the end of the year, but Zhang Shuisheng can save that much with just one year-end bonus. This is something that Ma Hongjuan would brag about every year during the Spring Festival.

Therefore, when Zhang Shuisheng declined the 10,000 yuan year-end bonus, Ma Hongjuan was even more excited than he was.

"No... Zhang Shuisheng, why don't you want your year-end bonus! It's just two tickets, we can just pay the difference, besides, you just said you'd pay three times the amount!"

"What do you know, you stupid woman? I'm talking to Boss Jiang, what right do you have to interrupt!"

"If you have nothing else to do, pack up and go home. Don't come to the orchard again!"

Zhang Shuisheng, displaying the authority of the head of the family, reprimanded Ma Hongjuan in front of Jiang Duoduo.

This was also the first time he had ever given Ma Hongjuan a hard time.

"You, Zhang Shuisheng, you've really grown some guts today! Fine, I'll leave! I didn't want to come to this lousy orchard anyway! Waaah..."

Zhang Shuisheng, who had never spoken a harsh word to her before, actually called her stupid in front of a stranger. Ma Hongjuan broke down immediately and ran out of the orchard while wiping away her tears.

"Mr. Jiang, I'm so sorry you had to see this!"

Seeing that Ma Hongjuan had run far away, Zhang Shuisheng rubbed his hands together, looking like an honest man, waiting for Jiang Duoduo's final punishment.

"I wouldn't call it a laughing stock! But Sister Ma's ever-changing personality is indeed not suitable for working in an orchard. Director Zhang made the right decision!"

"As for deducting the year-end bonus, let's talk about it during the Chinese New Year! But I hope Director Zhang will pay more attention to employee management; character is very important!"

Jiang Duoduo still recognized Zhang Shuisheng's work ability. He genuinely didn't know about Ma Hongjuan's matter, and there was no question of him covering it up. Therefore, Jiang Duoduo still planned to give him a chance.

However, while she was given the opportunity, Jiang Duoduo would still have some considerations regarding the orchard later on.

For example, let my cousin Chen Xiaohu come work at the orchard.

"Yes, yes, yes... I will definitely focus on this in the future!"

Zhang Shuisheng nodded repeatedly in agreement, finally able to put his mind at ease.

Zhang Shuisheng felt that Boss Jiang had not dismissed him because of Ma Hongjuan's matter. Even the matter of deducting his year-end bonus, which he himself had mentioned, was said to be discussed later. This was clearly giving him a chance to make amends.

"That's settled then! Director Zhang, you can go back to what you were doing! I really just brought my family here for fun today!"

After Jiang Duoduo finished speaking, she planned to continue her day trip to the orchard.

"Okay, Mr. Jiang, I'll get back to work now. The tangerines in the other orchard are going to be picked today, and I'll have someone pick some fresh ones for you to try later. If you like them, you can take some back with you this afternoon."

Zhang Shuisheng was indeed busy today. Since Jiang Duoduo was free, he planned to continue transporting tangerines.

"Great! I didn't expect the tangerines to be on the market so soon. Thank you, Director Zhang!"

In Jiang Duoduo's stereotype, tangerines are only available during the Chinese New Year.

When they were little, their family didn't have much money, and they could only buy a pound or two of tangerines. Chen Shuyue would only take them out for her sisters to eat on New Year's Eve.

"No trouble at all! I'll head over now!"

"Oh, right! The orchard only serves fast food for visitors at noon. If you don't like fast food, Mr. Jiang, I'll have my wife cook some farm-style dishes and bring them to the orchard for you!"

Zhang Shuisheng had only taken a few steps when he turned back to talk to Jiang Duoduo about lunch.

"No need, no need, we'll just have fast food. Director Zhang, please go ahead with your work. Just treat us like ordinary tourists!"

Jiang Duoduo smiled and waved to Zhang Shuisheng.

Thinking to herself, Jiang Duoduo really didn't dare to eat the food her wife cooked. She had just gone home with tears in her eyes and a wronged look on her face. She was afraid that eating her cooking at noon would give her a stomachache.

When Jiang Duoduo said she didn't need it, Zhang Shuisheng didn't say anything more.

After all, he knew Ma Hongjuan's temper; she was probably still at home throwing tantrums to vent her anger!

However, there were no restaurants or hotels in their Niujia Village, so Zhang Shuisheng couldn't find anyone to cook for Jiang Duoduo.

He only mentioned his wife in a moment of impulse, and he was really glad that Jiang Duoduo didn't agree, otherwise he would have had to go back and apologize to Ma Hongjuan and coax her to cook.

He's got a ton of work to do in the orchard today! He doesn't have the time or inclination to comfort her.

The lunch for the orchard activities was prepared by a restaurant that Zhang Shuisheng had arranged in town long ago. The restaurant would deliver the boxed lunches to the orchard promptly at 11:00 a.m.

The main reason was that Jiang Duoduo and the others arrived suddenly; otherwise, Zhang Shuisheng would have asked the restaurant owner to prepare several more dishes and send them over in advance.

Fortunately, his boss, Mr. Jiang, was not pretentious. He agreed to eat fast food and did not put on airs. This made Zhang Shuisheng feel very comfortable.

He hadn't expected Jiang Duoduo, such a young girl, to be so composed in her dealings with others.

She can be authoritative when necessary and approachable when appropriate, earning people's genuine respect for her management style.
