Although Jiang Changxi was going to visit Yuan Zhou, she didn't go there immediately the next day. Instead, it was several days later. Unexpectedly, Li Wentong came to Yuanzhou Shop on the next evening.
However, Yuan Zhou didn't know that yet. He was still puzzled now.
After lunchtime, Yuan Zhou had just carried out the chair and prepared to sculpt today under the sunlight when he was stopped by Boss Tong.
"Yuan, are you sculpting again?" Boss Tong walked out of the counter directly this time and stood outside the door, looking at Yuan Zhou.
"Yes. Aunt Tong, please wear more clothes. It's cold outside." Yuan Zhou looked at Boss Tong's thin clothes and reminded her.
"Never mind. The weather is not bad. It's sunny." Boss Tong shook her head and didn't take it seriously.
"Aunt Tong, if you are not busy with your business, please come in and have a seat. It's windy and cold outside." Yuan Zhou rubbed his hands and straightforwardly signaled her to open the door.
When Yuan Zhou said that, he was quite natural, as if he said that just because he was a little cold. He didn't care about the matter of sculpting outside just now.
Nevertheless, Boss Tong just smiled peacefully and answered straightforwardly.
"Ok. There's no one at this time. Let's have a seat inside." The wrinkles on Boss Tong's face smoothed out and she appeared quite happy.
"Zhi Ya". Yuan Zhou pushed open the glass door and let Boss Tong enter first before he entered the door.
As soon as she entered the door, Boss Tong looked around and then sat down at the table for two people at the side.
"Yuan, your shop is so clean and well decorated." Boss Tong sighed with emotion.
"Not at all. Boss Tong, your shop is so clean. It's all clean clothes." Yuan Zhou joked with her mildly.
Although Yuan Zhou didn't like to deal with others, that was just because he didn't want to get into trouble. However, Boss Tong was an elder who had helped him a lot. Judging from her manner just now, Yuan Zhou knew she had something to say. Naturally, he went along with her to ease the atmosphere and let Aunt Tong relax.
"Haw-haw. That's true. You still don't know how to wash clothes." Boss Tong smiled teasingly.
"I have Aunt Tong here." Yuan Zhou didn't care about Boss Tong's joke. Instead, he answered her.
"I can wash clothes now, but I'm getting old. Yuan, you should find yourself a wife. That way, the two of you can have a plan." Aunt Tong looked at Yuan Zhou gently as if she were looking at her own junior.
"Aunt Tong, don't you want to run the laundry shop anymore?" Yuan Zhou didn't answer her, but slightly knitted his brows and asked.
"Yeah. I'm getting old and I don't want to work here anymore. I'm preparing to travel around. When the time comes, I'll go wherever I want to go." Boss Tong revealed a smile and said straightforwardly.
"It's quite good to have fun everywhere. Just pay attention to your health," Yuan Zhou kept silent for a while and then said.
"Your Aunt Tong has worked hard all her life. She wants to rest, but she can't put down the store. I won't say anything else. The businesses on this street are all brought up by you, Little Yuan. You can have this store." Boss Tong said that simply and straightforwardly, as if she were not giving away something important.
"If you sell it to me, of course I'll be happy. I can transfer 1.5 million RMB to you directly." Yuan Zhou agreed without much consideration.
Even though he didn't need it now and didn't know what it could be used for, he still gave her an affirmative answer.
"You are wrong to say that. Who is talking about money with you?" Boss Tong said severely.
"Aunt Tong, I know you take me as a junior, but I can't take it for free. If you want to go out and have a look, you should go to more places. That way, I can rest assured. Just take it as peace of mind. What do you think?" Yuan Zhou wasn't very eloquent, but he always got to the point.
"Peace of mind. You're making me feel uneasy." Boss Tong knitted her brows and revealed a discontented look on her skinny face.
"Look at the price in my shop and you'll know." Yuan Zhou pointed at the shop sign and said smilingly.
"I know. But you are an honest man and use good materials. Therefore, the cost is high. Therefore, the price is reasonable." Boss Tong revealed a manner of support.
Having eaten the dishes cooked by Yuan Zhou once, Boss Tong had already known that the materials used by Yuan Zhou were excellent.
"So you don't need to worry. Coincidentally, my shop is small and can be expanded." Yuan Zhou said sincerely.
However, Yuan Zhou added inwardly, "It depends on when I can upgrade it."
"Let's not talk about that now. I can't accept the money." Boss Tong said resolutely. After saying that, she stood up and prepared to leave.
"Ok. Aunt Tong, please tell me before you leave. I'll see you off." Yuan Zhou stood up and opened the door hurriedly.
"Got it." Boss Tong waved her hand and then returned to her own shop.
"What's the matter with Boss Tong? Is she preparing to travel alone?" Although Yuan Zhou didn't express an astonished expression just now, he was actually quite shocked in the heart.
In Yuan Zhou's impression, Boss Tong wasn't a native of Chengdu, but she had opened the dry cleaning shop here for a long time. She had always been alone, even on Chinese New Year's Eve. He had also heard from his parents that Boss Tong didn't have any other relatives.
Now, Boss Tong surprisingly wanted to gift the shop to him, which made him quite surprised.
It was known that the business on the side street was very good now. The overall price of each shop had more than doubled. There were also people who wanted to buy Boss Tong's dry cleaning shop at a high price, but they were all refused.
Yuan Zhou had met this person for several times.
After all, the dry cleaning shop was just next to Yuan Zhou's shop. The other neighboring shop had been sealed by Yuan Zhou and turned into the yard of the pub. In front of the shop was the high-end western restaurant where Li Li worked. Therefore, Boss Tong's current position was the most popular.
Not to mention other things, even if she opened an empty shop for drinking tea and waiting for seats, the business would be very good. After all, it was just next to Yuanzhou Shop. One could see the door of Yuanzhou Shop if he craned his neck.
Yuan Zhou didn't sculpt for the whole afternoon. He was just thinking about why Boss Tong suddenly didn't want to do it and even wanted to give the shop to him for free. Therefore, he just sat there for the whole afternoon.
When he came to his senses, it was already dark and the business time for dinner should start.
"It's rare for me to be lazy today. Alas. It turns out that I'm too diligent in normal times." Yuan Zhou said proudly.
"Boss, good evening." Zhou Jia let out a breath of hot air and said obediently as soon as she entered the door.
"Um. By the way, there's a little girl who will work the day shift with you during the winter vacation." Yuan Zhou said primly.
He behaved quite normally and didn't seem to be a person who had almost forgotten about this matter. He behaved as if it was quite normal to inform her now, even though it had been almost a week since Mu Xiaoyun told him that.
"Of course. It's just that the work in the shop is originally quite easy. Boss, do you think I'm not good at it?" Zhou Jia asked carefully.
After all, in Zhou Jia's opinion, the work was really quite easy. She only needed to greet the customers and sometimes didn't even need to carry the dishes, let alone clear away the plates.
"Mu Xiaoyun is working during the winter vacation." Yuan Zhou didn't think much about that, but just told her about Mu Xiaoyun's situation.
"Um, got it." Zhou Jia nodded her head earnestly.
As for whether they understood the same thing, only God knew.
