Chapter 170 (2/2)

“It seems that I ought to celebrate my good luck. Only by spending some money would the windfall be secure,” while muttering that, Boss Tong was thinking of what to buy.

Shortly afterward, the boss came out with an envelope.

“Thank you,” Boss Tong then made small talk again with the boss before leaving.

Having returned to her store, she cleared some things away for a while and packed the clothes that were to be returned today. When she finished, it was about 11:00. Outside of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, there were already been some people lining up sparsely.

“I promised him to go to savor the tasty dishes,” suddenly, Boss Tong recalled of the matter of going to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant to congratulate him. Now that she had obtained so much money, Boss Tong prepared to go there for a taste.

“Hua La”, she shut the door and went up to line up.

“Boss Tong, you also come here for a meal?” seeing Boss Tong approach, Wu Hai asked politely.

“Yes. By the way, your clothes have been washed. Just come to get them back when you are free,” when Boss Tong found it was Wu Hai who often brought his clothes to her store to wash, she answered with a smile.

“Sorry to bother you.” Wu Hai was quite courteous to aged people.

Boss Tong appeared to be 50 years old or so, however, there was already some white hair on her head.

Shortly afterward, Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was opened. Then the two of them stopped talking. Coincidently, Boss Tong got the last vacant seat.

“Aunt Tong, what do you like to eat?” Other customers were all greeted by the obedient girl, Mu Xiaoyun. Only for Boss Tong, Yuan Zhou went up to greet her personally.

“Yuan Zhou, the dishes here are really not cheap,” looking at the price list on the wall, Boss Tong felt a little astounded by the high prices of hundreds of RMB for each dish.

“Trust me, they are very delicious,” Yuan Zhou was fairly confident when he spoke of his skills.

“Is the Steamed Tofu with Minced Pork made from genuine tofu?” Boss Tong looked at the price on the wall and said suspiciously.

“Yes, it’s indeed tofu. Do you wanna try it?” Yuan Zhou said with an affirmative tone.

“Well, tofu of this price…” if it were at normal times, Boss Tong would never order a dish costing 388 RMB per serving. However, it was a little special today. Since she came to spend the money from the windfall, she had no more concerns.

“Serve a plate of that dish for me to have a taste. Let’s make a deal beforehand. If it’s not tasty, this Boss Tong won’t pay,” Boss Tong said seriously.

“Don’t worry,” Yuan Zhou nodded.

“Ok, good. Do you have white rice here?” If there was a dish, there must be rice.

“Yes, I do. You can order a bowl of white rice from 100 Styles of Rice Cuisine,” while pointing at the menu, Yuan Zhou said.

“A bowl of white rice worth 98 RMB? I’d rather go back to my store and get a bowl of the rice myself,” Boss Tong drew a deep breath and then said promptly.

It was acceptable for her to spend hundreds on a dish anyway, first to spend some money from the windfall and secondly to eat some genuinely delicious tofu. She wouldn’t say much about that. But for a bowl of white rice worth almost 100 RMB, Boss Tong suddenly recalled that there was still some leftover white rice in the cooking pot at home.

“No problem. When you come back, the Steamed Tofu with Minced Pork will be prepared,” Yuan Zhou didn’t really get annoyed.

Usually, no one actually did so, as the difference was too sharp and one would probably get their heart broken.

“Great. Just keep the seat for me. This is the money of the dish,” Boss Tong knew the rule of paying first before eating here. Although neighbors had nothing to worry about, she still paid for the dish first, after which Boss Tong immediately left the restaurant and went back to her home to get her leftover white rice.

“I feel that Boss Tong will surely scold you after she eats the dish cooked by you and then those cooked by herself,” Wu Hai said with a manner of glee.

“No, she won’t,” Yuan Zhou nodded affirmatively.
