After transmigrating, I became a stepmother.

The restaurant is doing so well that we definitely can't close on time today!

However, Lin Hao and Manager Sun had anticipated this situation, so they specifically told all the employees that they would receive bonuses based on the extra hours worked during the first three days of opening, and no one objected.

Seeing this situation, Lin Hao knew he couldn't wait until the business closed down, so he went home first.

Sure enough, when Manager Sun came to report the accounts that evening, the turnover had exceeded three hundred taels!

This amount was unexpected for Lin Hao, and she was pleasantly surprised: "I didn't expect people from Ningyuan County to be so willing to go out to eat!"

"Boss, I've also inquired around. The customers aren't just locals from Ningyuan County, but also some from nearby villages and towns. They've heard about the reputation of our Yuelai Restaurant's signature hot pot for a long time and came specifically to try it!"

When Manager Sun said this, his eyes were almost squinted into slits. The restaurant's good business was a testament to his success in fulfilling the Gu family's expectations. Besides, he had built the restaurant up from scratch, treating it like his own child!

"Alright, thank you for your hard work, Manager Sun! I'll need you to keep up the good work for the next two days!" With that, Lin Hao gestured for Fu Cui to hand over a red envelope.

"Master, what is this?"

"Take it! I already said I'd give you a red envelope when the restaurant opens. It's not much, just a token of my appreciation! And it's for good luck!" Lin Hao said with a smile.

"In that case, I'll accept it!" Manager Sun was very pleased to hear this; anyone would be happy to have their work acknowledged.

The old lady was delighted to hear this and jokingly teased Lin Hao with a big smile, "It seems you're going to become a wealthy family in the future!"

"Look at what Mother is saying. No matter how rich I am, can I be richer than you? Oh, I see. She's trying to shut me up by saying that I can't ask you for anything good anymore. That's impossible!"

Lin Hao deliberately acted like a greedy and rude person, which made the old lady and Manager Sun laugh.

"Look at this, they're eyeing my things, aren't they afraid of being laughed at?" The old lady pointed at Lin Hao and said to Manager Sun.

"My uncle isn't an outsider, so no one would laugh at me!" Lin Hao said coquettishly.

"Yes, I wouldn't dare laugh at the boss, but I'm still counting on the boss to give me a bonus!" Manager Sun chimed in.

"So you two are ganging up on me!" the old lady pretended to be angry.

"Absolutely not! My daughter-in-law is counting on you to back me up, so I can't afford to offend you!"

"You still need me to back you up? I'm afraid my old back can't handle it!"

"Mother, haven't you heard the saying, 'Having an elder in the family is like having a treasure'? You are the greatest treasure in our family!"

"Alright, alright, I'll back you up, but don't try to fool me with the same words you used to coax Yu-ge'er!" The old lady couldn't stop laughing at what she said.

"Uncle, you've come in such a hurry, you must not have had dinner yet! Please have some here!" Lin Hao said, but her eyes already signaled Liu Dan to serve the meal.

"Miss Liudan, please don't rush. The master has already prepared a meal at home, so there's no need to trouble yourself!" Manager Sun called out to Liudan and explained to Lin Hao.

"Since that's the case, you've had a long day, so go back and rest early! If you don't have anything to do tomorrow, you don't need to come over. Just rest over there!" Lin Hao didn't insist that he stay, but she felt that he had worked hard and it would be better for him to have less to do.

"Yes, thank you for your consideration, boss!" Manager Sun was also touched by Lin Hao's words; he had indeed been holding on all day.
