"Alright. It's a dying delicacy again. I'll come back tomorrow to treat you well." Yuan Zhou knocked on the bluestone pool with his finger and then said.
It was unknown whether those crabs were scared by Yuan Zhou's finger or his words. Anyway, after Yuan Zhou finished his words, all the crabs in the pool ran away and hid.
"It's getting late. It's time to sleep." Yuan Zhou stretched himself and then stood up and went back to the restaurant.
Speaking of going to bed, although it was a little later than usual, he still finished tidying up very quickly and went to bed.
Although he slept one and a half hours later, Yuan Zhou still woke up at 5: 30 am and went to the bathroom to wash up with his eyes closed.
"Hiss." With a shudder, Yuan Zhou opened his eyes completely. Then, he took a quick shower and changed into his sportswear, preparing to go out.
Before he went out, however, Yuan Zhou went back to his room, pulled open the curtains and looked down.
As expected, the old lady was walking back with a broom and a winnowing basket.
"Thank you." Yuan Zhou said softly.
Only when he saw the old lady walk away did Yuan Zhou go downstairs and go out.
When he opened the back door, Broth and Rice were still lying at the back door of the pub. One grey and one yellow, they snuggled up to each other. It was a very heartwarming scene.
Yuan Zhou took two steps forward and squatted down. Then, he started to look at the two. It was so long that Broth couldn't help but raise its head and look at Yuan Zhou. Only then did he say, "Broth, you and Rice have been together for a long time. Isn't it time for you to have a puppy?"
When he said that, Yuan Zhou revealed a serious expression while Broth looked at him in disdain. Then, it lowered its head and started to lick the back hair of Rice.
"Could it be that it hasn't recovered from its injury? Do you want to see a veterinarian? "Yuan Zhou suggested seriously.
Indeed, when Yuan Zhou just met Broth, Broth was lying in the garbage pile, dying. There was not a single part of its fur that was unharmed, and some parts even revealed its tender red flesh. Now that Yuan Zhou thought about it, it should have some kind of skin disease.
However, ever since Yuan Zhou began to feed it broth, Broth got better day by day. The hair on its body had also faded, and the hair that was dyed chocolate became longer and gray.
Yuan Zhou said this because he saw that the two of them had been together for a long time. They looked very healthy on the outside, but they hadn't given birth to any offspring after a few months. That was why he made this suggestion.
"Woof! Woof! Woof!" Broth barked impolitely. Then, it lay down and ignored them.
"Well, it seems like you don't want to go." Yuan Zhou shrugged and stood up.
"Woof!" Broth's barks were full of urging. Obviously, it wanted Yuan Zhou to leave quickly.
"If you feel uncomfortable, tell me. I will take you to see a black beast … No, a veterinarian. It's not good to hide your illness for fear of treatment." Yuan Zhou looked at Broth retreating meaningfully and then trotted away refreshingly.
Although he slept a little later than usual, it didn't affect Yuan Zhou's enthusiasm for running. On the way, he greeted the neighbors that he met as usual and then ran for a while with Xia Yu who was waiting for him on the road.
Xia Yu respected Yuan Zhou very much. After she knew that Yuan Zhou didn't like to talk, she started to run by herself silently. She didn't make any sound until she couldn't bear it anymore and then stopped.
Now, Xia Yu felt that her body was getting better and better. Her record was increasing almost every day in the past few days.
Yuan Zhou's timetable was the same as yesterday, the day before yesterday and the day before yesterday. However, after breakfast, Yuan Zhou practiced his cutting skills with the Shengfang Crabs that had disappeared.
After finishing his practice, Yuan Zhou cooked the crabs again and prepared to make a midnight snack.
After all, he still had to tidy up the bowl rack in the evening. However, because he wanted to observe the contamination of the taste this time, Yuan Zhou went to the place where the bowl rack was placed after he saw Shin Min off when the pub time was over.
Because the pub was open for business today, the street of Taoxi Road had long been occupied by barbecue stalls. Even though the pub time was over, there were still several stalls open for business in the early hours of the morning.
There was even a table placed at the door of the storage room of the bowl rack. Because there was a roof here and the door had always been closed before, the stall owners had gotten used to it.
Half an hour later, the pub was still open at that time and Yuan Zhou was kneading dough. Master Bai, the taxi driver that Jiang Changxi often used, was also the driver who had sent Yuan Zhou back to his hometown, Meishan.
He stopped at the intersection of Taoxi Road and waited for Jiang Changxi while making a phone call.
"Master Qian, do you want to come to Taoxi Road tonight? There are still many people here. Now that Boss Yuan hasn't closed the door, people come here in an endless stream. There's a lot of business here. "Master Bai took the phone and said gently to the other end of the phone.
It was indeed a taxi driver at the other end of the phone. He was driving a green car with a giant panda printed on it and was reversing the gear slowly to get out of the garage.
"Old Bai, don't worry. I just drive at night and still sleep during the day." After reversing the gear and getting out of the garage, the taxi driver didn't start the car immediately but said to the phone.
"That's good. You should also have a good rest. Don't neglect your health. Otherwise, everyone will be worried about you." Master Bai sighed and said.
"Hey, I know." Master Qian said with a light tone.
"You make me feel worse. You old man, don't pretend in front of me. We've been driving a sports car together for so long." Master Bai said angrily.
"I'm not pretending. I feel much better now. I'm not talking to you anymore. I'm going to get a job now." Master Qian said with a relaxed tone as usual.
"Okay. You can come to Taoxi Road and have a look. There are quite a lot of people here. It won't take long for you to come here. You can catch up with those people going out of the city or returning to the city to get a big job." Master Bai said.
"Yes, yes, yes. I got it. I will come to you. Don't worry." Master Qian nodded the head continuously.
"Okay. Come quickly. I'm waiting for a customer." Master Bai hung up the phone with relief and then continued to wait for Jiang Changxi.
"She will probably see you driving here and even say hello to you." Master Bai thought inwardly.
"What's there to worry about? I'm very good." Master Qian smiled at the rearview mirror and revealed a gentle smile on his simple and honest fat face.
It was just that the hair on his head was quite conspicuous, which didn't conform to his appearance of being only in his early 50s.
The taxi drivers of Chengdu City, especially those in Chenghua District, all had a common understanding that if they ran out of business, they would go to Taoxi Road to take a look.
If it weren't for the fact that Yuan Zhou was still alive and well, he would probably be worshipped by the taxi drivers …
"Wu". Looking at his status, Master Qian drove out of the garage of the residential area contentedly and headed for Taoxi Road.
Chengdu City wasn't desolate at night. The lights on both sides of the street were bright and there were sporadic barbecue stalls on the empty roadside. Some people were drinking and eating kebabs there, looking quite comfortable.
Just at that time, a fair arm stretched out from under a street lamp and stopped Master Qian who was showing an empty taxi sign.
Master Qian saw that the car was steady and immediately stopped in front of the person who stopped the taxi.
"Where are you going, girl?" Master Qian stretched out his head and looked out from the open window of the front passenger seat.
"To Xihe Bridge." The clear and melodious voice of the girl passed and then she walked out of the shadow.
Nevertheless, when Master Qian heard the name of the place, his heart skipped a beat. He nodded his head quickly and said, "Go. Get in the car quickly."
