What the granny said next made Yuan Zhou realize that things weren't as simple as he had thought.
Probably because she noticed that Yuan Zhou was lost in thought, the granny added hurriedly, "My daughter is hospitalized at Pearflower Street, which is not far from here."
Hospitalized? Yuan Zhou was a little sensitive to this word. Although he had seen many joys and sorrows, he didn't want to hear that someone was seriously ill, even if it was a stranger.
"Due to special reasons, I really can't do it myself. I just want her to have a comfortable and delicious meal. They all say the Egg Fried Rice here is the best. Please, Boss Yuan."
While saying that, she burst into tears silently. Her tearful appearance made her look like a loving mother. Anyone who saw her would want to do their best to help her.
There were indeed many rules in Yuanzhou Shop. Now that the ingredients could be taken out of the restaurant, it was just that he couldn't guarantee the taste of each dish. Therefore, he temporarily put the take-out service out of his plan for the time being.
Hearing the granny's request, Yuan Zhou wanted to refuse her at first. But when he heard the latter part of her words, Yuan Zhou thought for a while and decided to satisfy a mother's love for her daughter.
"Granny, please follow me. Let's wait in the restaurant. The Egg Fried Rice needs time," Yuan Zhou said.
While saying that, he led the way to the front door of the restaurant. Except for Yin Ya, even Wuhai didn't go through the back door. It was also a rule. After all, this was a restaurant and not everyone could enter from the back door. Otherwise, the customers wouldn't feel safe.
"Granny, if you still need me, you can come in from the front door. You don't have to wait for so long." While leading the way, Yuan Zhou carefully explained the direction of the way and nagged.
Probably because Yuan Zhou had just agreed to her request, the granny didn't look as sad as before. Instead, she looked a little relaxed. It was the relaxed state after her wish was achieved. When she heard Yuan Zhou's words, she quickly nodded her head, indicating that she understood.
"The Boss Yuan of this restaurant is such a nice guy. The food he cooks must be delicious. My daughter will most likely be able to eat more." The granny felt a little happy from the bottom of her heart.
After returning to the shop, Yuan Zhou informed Mao Ye that he had arrived and went into the kitchen. He planned to cook the old lady's Egg-Fried Rice first before preparing the food for the tavern.
While Yuan Zhou was busy, the granny took out a phone with a huge screen from the cloth bag with trembling hands. It looked a little old, but its owner must have cherished it very much. Judging from its appearance, it could be seen that the owner cherished it very much.
He gently pressed the screen with his finger, and the screensaver showed a middle-aged woman in her thirties or forties. She had willowy eyebrows and a pair of phoenix eyes, and it was clear that she was quite charming. She must have been a rare beauty when she was young.
The old lady looked at the woman on the screen with warmth in her eyes. She touched her phone gently with her finger before turning it on.
It was probably because she had been using it for a long time. Although the speed was very slow, it still turned on very quickly. She even opened the WeChat payment interface and scanned the payment code on the table. Then, she transferred the money for the Egg-Fried Rice.
She knew that she had to pay for the meal. Ever since her daughter was hospitalized because of "that incident", her phone had been taken care of by the old lady. Paying for the meal, taking the medicine, and taking care of her daughter were all done by the old lady. Now, she was very familiar with using the phone to pay for the meal.
Not long after the old lady paid for the meal, Yuan Zhou came out with a small and exquisite lunchbox. In order to ensure the taste of the Egg-Fried Rice, he had asked the system to provide a special lunchbox to store the Egg-Fried Rice.
"Granny, it's done."
Yuan Zhou saw the action of the old lady and knew that she was paying for the meal. He didn't say much. He didn't say that it was enough, nor did he say that it was not enough. No matter how much it was, he would be responsible for it.
Looking at the exquisite and beautiful lunchbox, the old lady was a little hesitant. After looking at it for a while, she made up her mind to take it and said, "Boss Yuan, is this Egg-Fried Rice 188 RMB? Including the lunchbox, I only transferred 188 RMB just now. Is it enough? How much more do I need to pay?"
The old lady only knew the price of the Egg-Fried Rice. She had inquired about it before, but it didn't mean that she didn't know that the lunchbox was very expensive. She didn't want to take advantage of others, so she naturally had to ask clearly.
"Every take-away customer will have such a food container. Only in this way can the best taste be guaranteed. It's not just for you. Everybody knows that," Yuan Zhou said earnestly. "That's right.
He didn't lie. The take-out service hadn't been opened yet. However, whether it was for Little Qing or Wuhai, they had all used such lunchboxes. There was no problem.
"Ah! Good, good, good. It's good that the taste is good. That's great. "When the old lady heard that everyone had a lunchbox, she instantly felt relieved.
"Thank you very much, Boss Yuan. Thank you so much." The old lady thanked Yuan Zhou again and again before leaving.
"It seems that this old lady must be a great mother who loves her daughter very much." Yuan Zhou sighed with emotion.
Then, he went into the kitchen to prepare the sobering meal. After all, the customers had already arrived, so he couldn't be any slower. He had to hurry.
While Yuan Zhou was busy with the matters of the pub, the old lady carefully carried the lunchbox to the hospital. It wasn't far, so it didn't take long for her to arrive.
Probably because it was a little late, there weren't many people in the corridor. When the old lady came back, she met two nurses who were patrolling the ward. The two nurses greeted the old lady with a smile on their faces.
After the old lady greeted them warmly, she came to the door of a ward.
Although it was a six-person ward, there was only one patient in it. The old lady pushed the door open and entered the ward. Then, she saw a woman lying on the bed.
Her face was haggard, and her eyes were lifeless. Her wrists, which were hanging outside the blanket, were so thin that they looked like they could break at any moment. Her eyes were slightly closed, and the most eye-catching part of her was her pair of willow-shaped eyebrows, which were still very thick and black, which made her look even worse.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, she slightly raised her eyelids. When she saw it was the old lady, she lazily closed her eyes again and didn't have much reaction.
The old lady didn't care about that. She walked briskly into the ward. While walking, she carried the lunchbox carefully, afraid that it would taste bad if she bumped along the way.
"Don't you like a singer called Luo Xingyu the most? I went to ask for his autograph today. He even wrote a congratulatory message for you. Do you want to have a look?" The old lady's tone was obviously showing off.
However, the woman on the bed didn't have much reaction. Of course, compared with the reaction just now, it was still a big reaction. She got up from the bed and leaned against the headboard.
Seeing her daughter's reaction, the old lady's eyes flashed with joy. She felt that the fatigue of the whole day was gone instantly. She immediately took out the album from the cloth bag and handed it to the woman. Then, she took a pillow from the side and put it on the woman's back, so that she could sit more easily.
The woman didn't have any reaction. She just touched the flamboyant handwriting with her hand. Tears flashed in her eyes.
