Gourmet Food Supplier Novel - Chapter 1020
Chapter 1020: Liu Jianan arrives
Of course, Tang Xi didn’t know anything about Yuan Zhou’s restaurant, because she was following the old man who picked up the scraps.
In fact, it wasn’t quite appropriate to say that she was following them, because Tang Xi was just following the grandpa.
He saw the old man picking up garbage in some unnoticeable places, clearing out bottles, cardboard, and the like that could be sold for money.
Moreover, the grandpa would always clean up the trash can and even sort it out.
The people who saw the old man would also greet him. Some of them were sanitation workers who cleaned the streets, and some were shop owners.
He would ask the old man to give him empty bottles, waste cardboard, and so on. It was not much, but Tang Xi was very touched when she saw it.
“The old man should be real.” Tang Xi thought.
But now, Tang Xi was in a dilemma. She wanted to rush up to help, but she didn’t know how to say hello.
She couldn’t tell others that she was here to follow someone, could she? Tang Xi stood at the door of a shop and looked at the old man, not knowing what to do.
“Aiya.” The old man suddenly cried out and held his waist.
Tang Xi immediately raised her head and walked over quickly, not bothering to think of any excuses.
“Old man, are you alright?” Tang Xi first held the big snakeskin bag on the old man’s back, her pretty face full of worry.
“Thank you, young lady. Thank you, young lady.” The grandpa kept thanking him. Then, he slowly bent his legs and put down the snakeskin bag on his back.
The snake skin bag on the old man’s back was far bigger than his body. In other words, the old man could barely be seen with the bag on his back.
“Little girl, this thing is dirty. Don’t touch it. Be careful not to dirty your hands.” The grandpa said gratefully as he pulled the belt closer to him.
“I’m fine, I’m fine. ” Tang Xi hurriedly waved her hands to show that she didn’t mind.
“Thank you for holding it up for me just now. If it wasn’t for you, I’m afraid this thing would have rolled all over the floor. Thank you.” The grandpa took a breath and then said.
“It’s nothing. I just wanted to help. ” Tang Xi blushed and said with embarrassment.
“Your waist doesn’t seem to be comfortable. I’ll help you move it back.” Tang Xi said sincerely.
“No, that won’t do. Young lady, you’re clean and pretty. You can’t move this, you can’t move this.” The grandpa refused again and again.
“But this is not heavy, don’t worry.” After saying that, Tang Xi picked up the big snakeskin bag and walked two steps forward.
The snakeskin bag wasn’t heavy. After all, it was filled with empty plastic bottles and a small amount of cardboard.
For Tang Xi, who often went to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant for meals and was in good health, it was really not a problem to pick it up.
“Little girl, no, no. It’s so dirty. Don’t worry about your clothes.” The grandpa’s face was full of apprehension. He followed Tang Xi carefully, but he didn’t dare to snatch her clothes for fear of dirtying them.
“Don’t worry, I won ‘T. I’m stronger than you, so I’ll send you to wherever you live. ” Tang Xi slowed down her pace and waited for the grandpa.
“This is too troublesome, too troublesome.” The grandpa kept talking.
“Where do you live?” With a warm smile on her face, Tang Xi continued to ask.
“Then I’ll carry it myself later, don’t tire yourself out.” The grandpa compromised and could only say that.
“I know, go ahead.” Tang Xi nodded on the surface, but in her heart, she had made up her mind to send it back directly.
After all, Tang Xi was Yuan Zhou’s fangirl. Naturally, she had to learn from Yuan Zhou.
Tang Xi carried the snakeskin bag and followed the old man back to his residence. Of course, she called Queen Jiang on the way and reported her whereabouts.
It was also lunchtime at Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. When the door was opened, there were many people waiting in line outside.
Not only was there the old man who had promised his grandson, Xiao Hu, in the morning, there was an even older man at the end of the line. He was sitting in a wheelchair, and a young man stood behind him.
The two of them were also in line, but it seemed like they would only be able to eat it during the last batch.
“Grandpa, are you alright?” It was Liu Jianan, the man who had invited Mr. MA to have a birthday party.
But in the end, Mr. MA recommended Yuan Zhou and Yuan Zhou agreed to cook the birthday banquet for Liu Jianan’s grandfather. However, the birthday banquet was really for his grandfather and it only had the capacity for one person.
“I’m fine. I didn’t expect this chef’s skills to be so good. So many people have come.” Old man Liu sighed with emotion.
“Yeah, there’s always been a lot of people here,” Liu Jianan nodded.
“I’m late. It’ll probably take a long time. ” Said Grandpa Liu.
“How about I go in and ask boss Yuan if he can let you in to have a rest first?” Liu Jianan asked tentatively.
“I would like to, but does master Yuan listen to you?” Old man Liu said resentfully.
“Grandpa, I’m still your grandson. Aren’t you trying to ruin my reputation?” Liu Jianan said impressively.
“It’s all because of you, kid. You brought this person here to prepare a birthday banquet for me. This is the first time I’ve had such a delicious meal in my life. Now, it’s all gone after eating just a little bit. ” Old man Liu said with dissatisfaction.
That’s right. Grandpa Liu specially came to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant for a meal this time because of the birthday banquet last time.
Old man Liu was going to be 92 this year. His health wasn’t very good, and he could only come when he was in good health.
Before he came, he had called his grandson back and asked him to lead the way.
Although old man Liu had never met Yuan Zhou before, he knew that a master chef like Yuan Zhou would never listen to his grandson. That was why he was being ridiculed.
“But Grandpa, it was Mr. MA who recommended it, and you were also very satisfied with the birthday party, weren’t you?” Liu Jianan retorted in a low voice.
“Hmph,” he snorted. Old man Liu snorted and didn’t say anything.
“Why don’t I go talk to the boss? the environment here is too noisy.” A man who was dressed in ordinary clothes but had a straight back stepped forward and said.
“Don’t cause trouble. Just wait. A good meal is never too late.” “You have to follow the rules if you’re here to eat,” said boss Liu nonchalantly.
“Yes.” “Yes,” the man replied and returned to his previous position.
“Grandpa, are you okay? can you hold on?” Liu Jianan asked with concern.
“This is only possible now. In the past, a 50 – kilometer mountain road would not be a problem.” Boss Liu said with a confident look.
“Grandpa.” Liu Jianan called again.
“I know, there’s no problem. Didn’t the doctor say that she’s fine before we left?” Old man Liu said in dissatisfaction.
“Grandpa, I’m saying that if you’re not feeling well, don’t hold it in. You must tell me.” Liu Jianan said with a serious look.
“You Rascal, you’re even more naggy than your dad.” Old man Liu said in an unpleasant tone.
“My dad said that if you lose a single hair, he’ll have to help me loosen my bones.” Liu Jianan said.
“Do you think I’m a monkey? I’m even shedding fur.” Grandpa Liu laughed and patted Liu Jianan.
