"And it shouldn't be too noisy; it should create an elegant and tranquil atmosphere."

"Come on, Mengran, try walking a couple of steps to show everyone."

After hearing this, Chu Mengran first took a deep breath, as if to cheer herself up.

Then, she slowly lifted her foot, trying to make her movements gentle and slow, taking each step carefully.

Chen Xiumei narrowed her eyes slightly, carefully observing every detail of Chu Mengran's movements.

After observing for a while, an approving smile appeared on her face, and she nodded in praise, "Yes, not bad, that's it. Yu Qin, Shen Yue, you two should try it too."

In reality, if we were to be very strict with the requirements, this would definitely be unacceptable.

But Chen Dong's requirement was just that she look like a maid, not that he actually trained her to be a Western-style British maid; he just wanted something passable.

Yu Qin and Shen Yue exchanged a glance, and then started walking like Chu Mengran.

Chen Xiumei continued to watch attentively from the side, occasionally coming out to correct their posture.

"Yu Qin, take smaller steps, like lightly brushing the ground, yes, that's it."

"Also, the arm movements should be more natural, not too stiff."

Chen Xiumei patiently provided guidance.

As Shen Yue was leaving, Chen Xiumei said again, "Shen Yue, remember to lean forward slightly, but don't overdo it."

"Maintain that elegant posture, just like an elegant lady going out for a walk."

While Chen Xiumei was instructing the three, Chen Dong and Guo Miao sat at a table and chairs in the corner.

Chen Dong leisurely cracked sunflower seeds, and Guo Miao followed suit, picking up sunflower seeds and cracking them open as they chatted in hushed tones.

"Brother Dong, do you think this maid training program is really effective?"

While cracking sunflower seeds, Guo Miao frowned and asked in confusion.

Chen Dong smiled slightly and replied confidently, "Of course it will work. The eldest sister teaches so diligently and responsibly. Look how clearly she explains every detail."

"Besides, Mengran and the others are studying very hard, so I think there will definitely be no problem."

Time flows by quietly, like a gently flowing stream.

July 25th arrived quickly.

As the first faint light of dawn appeared on the horizon, Chen Dong, Chen Xiumei, Chu Mengran, Guo Miao, Yu Qin, and Shen Yue arrived at Donglai Restaurant early.

Some of them were tidying up tables and chairs, while others were cleaning the floor. They were busy making final preparations for the upcoming training.

Not long after, 28 female students who came to work part-time also arrived at the restaurant entrance.

Some of them carried schoolbags, their faces brimming with youthful energy; others whispered to each other, their eyes filled with curiosity.

Chen Dong stepped forward and said loudly, "Hello everyone! Welcome to Donglai Hotel."

"Today we will begin our on-the-job training. We aim to make everyone look like a maid within two days, so that we can provide high-quality service to our customers."

"Now, please let the eldest sister lead Mengran, Yuqin, and Shen Yue to demonstrate for everyone."

Chen Xiumei led the three people to the front and began to demonstrate the standardized movements.

"Look, everyone, when you greet customers, you should bend over slightly, about this extent."

As Chen Xiumei spoke, she bent down slightly, demonstrating just the right amount of bending over.

"Wear a smile, a smile that is genuine and warm, like seeing an old friend you haven't seen in a long time."

Then, in a very gentle tone, she said, "Welcome! How may I help you, Master?"

Chu Mengran and the others followed Chen Xiumei's movements and rhythm closely, repeating the actions while speaking clearly, setting the best example for the other female classmates.

After the demonstration, Chen Xiumei said with a smile, "Now we'll start practicing in groups. You can work in pairs to correct each other. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me or Mengran or the others."

During the practice, some of the female students performed exceptionally well.

For example, a female student named Xiaoxuan walks with a very elegant posture, lifting her heels lightly and landing on her toes first, with just the right stride.

Each step seemed to carry a gentle rhythm.

The tone of voice was also very appropriate, gentle yet warm, and the smile on her face made people feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze.

After watching for a while, Chen Dong immediately stepped forward with satisfaction.

He patted Xiaoxuan on the shoulder forcefully and praised her loudly, "Xiaoxuan, you did a great job! You'll get a chicken leg and a drink for lunch. Keep it up!"

Upon hearing the praise, Xiaoxuan's face instantly lit up with a proud smile, her eyes sparkling with joy: "Thank you, Brother Chen, I will continue to work hard!"

However, among the many students who performed well, there were also some female students who did not perform well.

For example, my classmate Xiaolin walks with large strides, each step seems a bit slow, and she also makes a rather loud sound.

Chen Xiumei noticed this, so she slowly walked to her side, still with a gentle smile on her face, and patiently said, "Xiaolin, you should take smaller steps."

"Just like walking on a soft garden path, take light steps and slow down."

"Imagine yourself strolling in a quiet garden, enjoying the beautiful atmosphere; that's how you walk out gracefully."

Xiaolin blushed slightly upon hearing this, nodded somewhat shyly, and then went to practice as Chen Xiumei had instructed.

After several corrections, her steps gradually became much lighter and smaller, and a look of joy at her progress appeared on her face.

Some female students performed really poorly, like Jiayi, whose movements were not only incorrect.

He walks with a casual posture and his attitude is somewhat perfunctory.

Chen Dong frowned, a serious look in his eyes, and slowly walked up to her.

He said calmly and seriously, "Jiayi, you can't do this."

"We're working hard to prepare for the restaurant's opening. Everyone is putting in a lot of effort, and you can't fall behind."

"If we can't improve by the afternoon, we'll wash the dishes at noon. After all, every position is important and needs to be taken seriously."

Upon hearing this, Jia Yi looked embarrassed. She lowered her head, nervously clutching the hem of her clothes, realizing her mistake.

Under the careful guidance of Chen Xiumei, Chu Mengran, Yu Qin, and Shen Yue, and after a day of hard work, most of the female students made significant progress.

Some students went from walking with stiff posture to walking with lightness and elegance, while others went from speaking in a flat tone to speaking in a warm and friendly manner.

Everyone eagerly anticipated the training the next day, hoping to better meet the standards of a maid and make full and perfect preparations for the opening of Donglai Hotel.

It has to be worth the high salary of 70 yuan for this summer job.
