Chapter 248 (2/2)

However, they instantly thought of the occasion when he got injured on the face and then rested for days. Immediately, they asked.

“Boss, you are not going to rest again since you have just been back, are you?” Thinking that Boss Yuan would close the restaurant again, Zhuang Xinmu didn’t feel good for an instant.

“No, I won’t.” Yuan Zhou’s answer was always so simple and clear.

“That’s great.” This time, Wu Zhou and Zhuang Xinmu let out a sigh of relief together.

If Yuan Zhou’s restaurant was open, only a look at it would be satisfactory, even if they couldn’t afford it. Every time they passed by, they would reminisce about the taste while eating there. It was also a kind of happiness.

“Hold on. The key point is what we shall do with our Prawn Eaten with Vinegar dish today?” Wu Zhou reacted first.

“Never mind. I think the Clear Broth Noodle Soup is also not bad,” Zhuang Xinmu said considerately.

“Honey, I’m so sorry for not fulfilling your wish for eating prawns.” Wu Zhou began to explain and coax his girlfriend while looking at her with deep love.

In Yuan Zhou’s eyes, however, he wasn’t actually explaining but was showing off their intimate relationships.

Life is that even you are in your own store, you can’t evade from being flaunted with others’ intimacy. Luckily, Yuan Zhou’s endurance had been greatly toughened by the former imperial royal chef, Mr. Ma.

Only after a long words of love did they begin to order dishes.

“Two bowls of Clear Broth Noodle Soup.” Wu Zhou made a gesture of “two”, indicating he wanted two bowls.

“Ok.” Yuan Zhou nodded the head seriously and then went to cook noodles.

“Hi, what do you want to eat today?” Zhou Jia uttered and inquired.

The moment they ordered their dishes, the customers outside began to walk into the restaurant one after another. And Zhou Jia started to greet them earnestly. Of course, she also had to explain to them about the dishes being unavailable for these two days.

Time passed quickly. It was soon 12:30. A cleanly and neatly dressed middle-aged woman who was carrying a 2-year-old baby cut the line and entered the restaurant from outside the restaurant.

“Sorry, you can’t cut the line,” Zhou Jia went up and said to her with courtesy.

“I’m not here to eat. I came to clear out the drain. Your boss called me this morning.” The middle-aged woman might have felt that she had affected their business, hence got a little embarrassed. Nevertheless, she still said directly.

“I told her to come here,” Only after finishing cooking the dishes did Yuan Zhou say.

“Hello. The drain is upstairs. Can you clean it now?” Yuan Zhou turned the head and asked the woman.

“If it’s not convenient for you now, I have to come over again tomorrow.” Standing in the main hall full of customers, the middle-aged woman was a little embarrassed.

“Never mind. No problem. You can go up.” Yuan Zhou indicated there wasn’t any inconvenience.

After that, Yuan Zhou opened access to the long table and let the woman in. While leaning to one side, she tried her best to stand with her back against the wall and carried her baby in her arms with one hand holding a big box. The woman looked very clean.

“Zhou Jia, you go and continue taking orders.” Yuan Zhou instructed Zhou Jia and then led the woman upstairs.

When they got to the second floor, however, the middle-aged woman looked around the confined space of the second floor and found there was nowhere to place her baby.

Having thought for a while, the woman had to carry the baby with one hand and open the box with the other. Then, she started to bring out a rope out and seemingly intended to tie the baby somewhere. The baby, nevertheless, might have been used to that, thus he just looked around curiously with his widely open eyes, neither crying nor screaming.

“Give him to me. Let me help you.” Just before the woman tied his baby, Yuan Zhou proposed.

“No, I can’t. I can’t bother you.” The woman refused at first.

Nevertheless, Yuan Zhou just picked up the baby directly. It was, of course, more comfortable to be held in arms than being tied. Therefore, the baby didn’t struggle and remained quite obedient. Seeing that, the woman had to say thanks to Yuan Zhou.

While taking the tools, she began to work carefully.

As he was carrying the baby, he was naturally unable to cook after he walked downstairs.

“One moment, please. For the time delayed, I will extend the business hours,” Yuan Zhou said courteously.
