Chapter 203 (2/2)
“It’s good that you understand. So now drive the car carefully,” upon finishing speaking that, Lee Yanyi continued to close his eyes and rest his mind.
…
On the next morning, Yuan Zhou changed into sportswear and went out jogging.
“Hoo”, it was fairly tiring. While jogging, Yuan Zhou tried to breathe according to the method written in the books, but nevertheless felt even more tired.
After jogging for a lap, he especially made a detour to the entrance of his restaurant.
“It truly is different,” Yuan Zhou stopped to observe the areas in front of his restaurant and the neighboring Boss Tong’s store and then said with puzzlement.
The place in front of Yuan Zhou’s restaurant and his pub was clean and neat. It could be clearly seen that this place had been carefully cleaned once. Comparatively, the leftover candy paper, some messy paper scraps and the dirt were scattered in front of Boss Tong’s store.
Compared with Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, the difference was quite obvious.
“What’s going on?” Yuan Zhou wiped the perspiration with one hand and put the other on the waist.
“Hey, Broth. Do you know about the problem?” When he suddenly saw the dog Broth that was lying at the door, he asked naturally.
Broth nevertheless responded to him with an indescribable wink.
“Oh, I forget that you are only a dog and can’t speak human language. Sorry,” Yuan Zhou then reacted after asking.
He stood there for five minutes and then said, “Someone should have cleaned the area especially.” He then decided to get up earlier the next morning to see who cleaned it.
To this kind of matter of helping others secretly, Yuan Zhou wanted to know very much. After all, everyone had curiosity.
The most favorite dishes provided by Yuan Zhou for breakfast were the Duck Oil Sesame Seed Cakes matched with the Lotus Root Starch.
“Only with the Duck Oil Sesame Seed Cake and Lotus Root Starch as the meal could life be considered perfect.” The customers sighed with emotion while eating.
However, the breakfast time in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was really too short. Therefore, the remaining time all belonged to the hawkers who were selling foods around Yuan Zhou’s restaurant.
“Granny, give me a steamed seasoned pork bun and a cup of soybean milk.”
“Granny, get a steamed vegetable bun and soybean milk for me. Apart from Boss Yuan’s dishes, your food is the most delicious,” a young girl said sweetly to her.
A granny who carried two insulated barrels had the best business outside Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. Everyone would basically come to buy some food for their breakfast.
“Thank you, girl. Take the steamed bun. The soybean milk is still hot, so drink it later,” dressed in cotton print clothes, the grey-haired granny said graciously.
“I feel that the taste is only average. Why did you praise her like that?” The girl who had just complimented the granny was asked by her close friend beside her.
“But it’s very clean. Didn’t you notice her hands? They were very clean. Look at other hawkers. They even had black substances in their fingernails,” the girl said while biting the steamed bun.
“You are saying such disgusting things,” instantly, her friend didn’t want to eat the fried bread stick that was held in her hand.
However, these little interludes didn’t really affect the business of the granny. Soon her insulation barrels were empty.
Having returned to the place where she lived, the granny counted the money happily.
“The extra ten steamed buns that I cook are also sold out. The culinary skills of the young boss are undoubtedly good.” The granny held a handful of small change in her skinny hand and was quite happy.
The steamed buns and soybean milk had to be fresh; therefore, getting up early was a must. The granny got up at 3:00 in the morning and following the prescribed order, she kneaded the dough and waited for it to rise. During the time of waiting, she took a broom and went out of the door instead of having a rest quietly.
The street at 3:40 in the morning was so silent that even the sanitation workers hadn’t started to work. It was still dark.
After walking for fifteen minutes, the granny arrived at Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. Under the dim streetlights, she picked up the broom and started to clean the street.
The dog Broth that always stayed alert just lifted itself up and took a look before it continued to lie down and sleep. Apparently, it was not the first time that the granny had come so early.
While waving the broom vigorously with a sound of “Hu Hu”, she swept the ground once first and picked up the trash once again to make sure the ground was quite clean. Only after that did the granny take the broom and prepare to go home.
