As the news that Yuan Zhou had become the chairman of the Green Chef Association spread, there were more and more reports about Yuan Zhou in the newspaper.
Yin Ya picked up the newspaper and began to search for reports about Yuan Zhou as soon as she arrived at the company these days.
"It's reported that Yuan Zhou, a famous Asian chef, holds more than 20 posts, including the honorary vice-chairman of the Guchuan Cuisine Culture Research Association, the director of the Chef Collection Association, the honorary vice-chairman of the Chefs Welfare Protection Association, the presidium member of the China Culinary Culture Dissemination Institute, the director of the Chefs Branch of the Ancient Book Restoration Association, and the honorary chairman of the Youth Mutual Aid Association..."
After reading these reports, Yin Ya felt very proud and happy. This was her boyfriend.
On the other side, since the end of Yuan Zhou's cooking exhibition, the regular customers also returned slowly, including Wu Zhou and his wife, Ma Zhida, a master of new dishes, and Tang Xi's fangirls.
Even the daughter of Zhang Yan, a fangirl of Jiang Changxi, came here several times in a row, not to mention others.
Not to mention the others. Even the old couple who never cooked for themselves came twice a day just like before. They would order a portion each time and share it with each other.
After breakfast time, Yuan Zhou didn't go out to practice sculpting at the door today. Instead, he sat on the chef's chair in the restaurant and bent over the table to write something.
"Dadada." Just then, there came a light footstep at the door.
Yuan Zhou raised his head in response and found the man was wearing a grey suit and a pair of spotless black leather shoes. His grey hair was combed back neatly.
"Grandpa Jiang? Why are you here? "Yuan Zhou closed the folder in his hand, stood up and asked.
The two people called Grandpa Jiang by Yuan Zhou were the old couple who often came to the restaurant to eat. They were the DINK and his wife who shared half of the food every time.
The two people were very kind and gentle. Besides, they didn't know that they were feeding dog food to others in the restaurant every day. If Yuan Zhou hadn't had Yin Ya, he probably wouldn't have eaten here.
Because of this, the old couple were very popular in the restaurant and they were all familiar friends. Therefore, they introduced their names to each other.
The old lady's name was Li Yueshu. Everyone called her Grandma Li. The old man's name was Jiang Shang. Everyone called him Grandpa Jiang. Naturally, Yuan Zhou followed suit.
"It's fine, it's fine. Boss Yuan, you don't have to get up. I have something to ask of you. Don't get up." Grandpa Jiang Shang immediately waved his hand at Yuan Zhou.
"What's the matter? Please say it." Yuan Zhou sat down naturally and didn't get up. Instead, he asked straightforwardly.
Grandpa Jiang Shang was happy to see that Yuan Zhou did not get up. However, he quickly said with some worry, "I am embarrassed to say this, but I have to say it."
"You want to borrow money?" Yuan Zhou suddenly asked.
These words stunned Jiang Shang. After he reacted, he did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Hey, you youngsters think too much. Of course, I'm not borrowing money."
"Okay, please continue." Yuan Zhou nodded and stretched out his hand. Actually, if he wanted to borrow money, Yuan Zhou would really lend it. It wasn't easy for his parents.
"Okay, then I'll say it." Having been interrupted by Yuan Zhou, Jiang Shang felt less embarrassed and embarrassed. Therefore, he said straightforwardly.
"Here's the thing. My old lady is coming for dinner tonight, right? I hope Boss Yuan can sell half a serving to her. Of course, I will definitely pay for one serving," Jiang Shang said cautiously.
After saying that, Jiang Shang raised his head and looked at Yuan Zhou's expression carefully. He was full of expectation.
Yuan Zhou, on the other hand, was expressionless. He looked as if he was thinking.
Fearing that Yuan Zhou would not agree, Jiang Shang spoke again.
Jiang Shang said, "Actually, I quarreled with my old lady. She won't let me eat with her. She said she wants to share the food with me, but she can't eat one serving."
Speaking of this, Jiang Shang looked at Yuan Zhou's expression embarrassedly. Seeing that Yuan Zhou's expression was the same as before, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued.
"I know my old lady's temper. She never wastes food. Even if she can't finish it, she will definitely eat it. If she is full, it will be terrible," Jiang Shang said.
"Indeed, Grandma Li will do this." Yuan Zhou nodded and agreed with his words.
This time, Jiang Shang seemed to have found an ally. He immediately shouted, "That's right. She has a stubborn temper."
"How good it is to raise a dog. This dog is obedient and affectionate. Walking it twice a day can also exercise its body. But she has to raise a cat."
"Boss Yuan, what's so good about this cat? It's always not at home. You can't even see its shadow every day. How can it accompany and relieve boredom?"
Jiang Shang didn't wait for Yuan Zhou to answer or echo. He continued, "We are old. It's not like she doesn't know that she can only raise one. Of course, she will raise a dog. How can she take care of two?"
"Raising a cat or a dog is like adding another person to the family. One has to be responsible. Naturally, she will raise a dog," Jiang Shang said and nodded his head in agreement.
"So, you are angry with Grandma Li because of this?" Yuan Zhou asked.
"What do you mean I am angry with her? She is the one who is angry with me," Jiang Shang said angrily.
"So, the two of you don't eat together anymore?" Yuan Zhou continued.
"We haven't reconciled yet, have we?" Jiang Shang touched his gray hair and said with some embarrassment.
"Um." Yuan Zhou said lightly and didn't say anything else.
"How about it? Boss Yuan, do you agree? " Jiang Shang looked at Yuan Zhou expectantly. However, before Yuan Zhou could answer him, he said again pitifully, "Look at how pitiful that old woman is. She has no children. Only an old man like me cares about her, right?"
After that, Jiang Shang's turbid eyes were filled with crazy hints. He was just waiting for Yuan Zhou to agree.
Looking at Jiang Shang like that, Yuan Zhou couldn't help thinking of the two old men, Jiang Shang and Li Yueshu, talking about their situation in the restaurant at that time. They said that they were always straightforward and straightforward.
That's right. These two old men always followed the trend closely and could come up with some internet slang from time to time.
Adjusting his expression, Yuan Zhou said solemnly as usual, "No. The price of one serving is naturally one serving. It's impossible to sell half a serving."
"Sigh." Jiang Shang immediately lowered his head in disappointment. But soon, he raised his head and said, "Thank you, Boss Yuan. My request is too much."
"I won't sell half a serving. Since you paid for one serving, the remaining half is naturally for you to eat, Grandpa Jiang." Yuan Zhou said as if it was a matter of course.
"This … this is great. Thank you, Boss Yuan. Thank you." Jiang Shang immediately understood the implied meaning of Yuan Zhou's words and thanked him happily.
"You are welcome. This is the rule of the restaurant." Yuan Zhou said indifferently.
"Wait. No. I can't let Boss Yuan break the rule of business hours. This won't do." Jiang Shang suddenly frowned and said while shaking his head.
Jiang Shang had just said that he couldn't come to eat at night because his old woman wouldn't allow him to. If he ate the remaining half a serving as Yuan Zhou's request, it would definitely affect Yuan Zhou's business hours. Jiang Shang's old man couldn't accept that.
After all, it was their own business to ask for half a serving. However, business hours weren't like that.
"I'm open for business at noon, Grandpa Jiang." Yuan Zhou reminded him.
"Hey hey. Right. I'll come at noon." Jiang Shang nodded his head and said smilingly.
"Ok." Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
"I can even guess what my old woman will order for dinner." Jiang Shang said complacently.
"Boss Yuan, you can't tell my old woman about this." Jiang Shang reminded him again and then started to say goodbye.
"Thank you, Boss Yuan. Thank you." Jiang Shang waved his hand to Yuan Zhou smilingly and then left happily.
Looking at his back, Yuan Zhou got lost in thought.
"Grandma Li isn't stupid. Isn't it obvious who cooked the dish if it's only half a serving?" Yuan Zhou stroked his forehead and thought seriously.
