"A serving of Jinling Grass, Steamed Tofu with Minced Pork and a meatball, Swedish Meatball." Liu Jianan looked at the menu and selected the dishes carefully.
"Okay, it's a total of 1204 yuan. Cash or bank transfer?" Zhou Jia asked politely.
"Transfer." Liu Jianan said generously.
"Okay. I've received it. The dishes will be served shortly. Please wait a moment." Zhou Jia nodded her head and said after confirming the receipt of the money.
"Thank you." Liu Jianan thanked him and then sat on the chair, waiting to eat.
"Although it's expensive, I'm doing the experiment for my grandpa." Liu Jianan comforted himself inwardly.
After all, he was still a college student and had no source of income. However, when he thought of the delicious food in a while, Liu Jianan felt at ease.
He was doing this for his grandfather, not to satisfy his own desire for good food.
Liu Jianan's family was very strict. For example, at his age, he should have graduated from college long ago. However, because his birthday was in the second half of the year, his primary school was delayed until he was eight years old.
Could he imagine that he, a six- or seven-year-old child, was still in kindergarten? Liu Jianan's heart was also on the verge of collapse.
The only good thing was that he was basically the eldest brother in class all the way up. Although it was purely because he was older, he was still the eldest brother.
"Grandpa eats meat. The meatball should meet his expectation. The doctor said it should be bland. The Jinling Cuisine is definitely bland and the tofu is more nutritious. My choice is really perfect." Looking at the dishes carried to them one after another, Liu Jianan muttered expectantly.
The aroma of several dishes drifted in front of Liu Jianan slowly, which made him want to eat. He picked up the chopsticks and started to eat, completely forgetting to order the main course.
Immersed in the delicacy, Liu Jianan soon finished the delicacy in front of him.
"Hoo. It's so delicious. But it's a little too little." Liu Jianan stroked his belly contentedly and said regretfully.
"Order, order, I'm so hungry."
"Jia Jia, a bowl of noodle soup."
"Same rules, one serving of Egg Fried Rice."
"Beef, one serving of Translucent Beef Slices. I brought my own wine today."
After breaking free from the delicious food, the noise in the shop rang in his ears.
This reminded Liu Jianan of his purpose. He was here to invite someone, not to taste the delicacies.
He stood up from his chair and immediately threw himself into the passion of his work.
"Hey, young man, what's wrong with you? You're blocking me."
"Wait, I haven't paid yet."
"Wait, give me the change."
All of a sudden, the restaurant became more boisterous, but it was almost all because of Liu Jianan's "enthusiastic help".
As for Zhou Jia, she hurriedly followed them and was mostly cleaning up the mess. Fortunately, she was still of some help.
Moreover, Liu Jianan was brave enough to apologize, and he looked sincere. So, Zhou Jia didn't lose her temper.
After two busy hours, the shop became quiet again.
Only Yuan Zhou and Liu Jianan were left.
Liu Jianan looked at Yuan Zhou eagerly, but Yuan Zhou turned a blind eye to it and didn't speak at all.
"Boss Yuan, what do you think?" Liu Jianan asked.
"I'm not going," Yuan Zhou refused.
Then, he wanted to see how the Wu Rice was doing.
"Oh. Then I'll continue to wait. Please take your time to consider." Liu Jianan became listless.
"Business time for lunch has ended. Please come earlier for dinner." Yuan Zhou turned his head and said to Liu Jianan.
"Then I'll wait outside the door. Boss Yuan, if you need anything, just call me." Liu Jianan said enthusiastically.
"No need." Yuan Zhou refused him flatly.
Liu Jianan learned this trick from Mr. Ma. However, Mr. Ma was instructed to do that, while here, Liu Jianan took the initiative to ask for instructions. Yuan Zhou didn't instruct him.
However, Liu Jianan believed that he could succeed. After all, Mr. Ma's successful case was before.
In the afternoon, apart from watching the Wu Rice that was being soaked, Yuan Zhou sculpted for the rest of the time.
Sitting at the door, the warmth of the restaurant still spread to this place. It wasn't cold, therefore, Liu Jianan stood obediently in front of Yuan Zhou for the whole afternoon.
When the kindergarten class was over at 3: 30 pm, Liu Jianan finally did one thing right perfectly.
He was quite popular with the children and even guided them to call Yuan Zhou elder brother.
"If you want the rabbit, you have to tell the elder brother over there yourself." Liu Jianan supported a round-faced girl with a pigtail and said earnestly.
"Oh, but he's an uncle." The girl rolled her big eyes and said mischievously.
"No. Boss Yuan is very young. You can get the rabbit as long as you call him elder brother." Liu Jianan shook his head solemnly and then said.
Yuan Zhou just stood at the side and said nothing, but he was quite satisfied in the heart.
"That's right. I'm so young and should be called elder brother." Yuan Zhou thought secretly.
"Alright. Elder brother, I want the rabbit. Can I?" The girl opened her big eyes and looked at Yuan Zhou cutely.
"Humm." With a taut face, Yuan Zhou picked up the rabbit and handed it to the girl gently.
"Thank you, elder brother." After the girl got the rabbit and thanked him, she immediately ran to her family members.
Nevertheless, Yuan Zhou was finally satisfied in the heart and even had a better opinion of Liu Jianan.
He changed from being stupid to having an ordinary insight.
In the evening, Liu Jianan acted as a waiter in the restaurant as usual before the meal and continued to work after the meal. However, it was better than at noon.
"Dadada Ta". With the sound of high-heeled shoes hitting the ground, Jiang Changxi came into the restaurant.
"Hey. Boss Yuan, have you prepared the Wu Rice?" Jiang Changxi blinked her eyes and asked mischievously.
"Sit down, please." Yuan Zhou didn't answer her but gestured her to sit down.
"Since you asked me to sit down, I'll definitely sit down." Jiang Changxi nodded her head and then sat down on the empty seat.
"One moment, please." Yuan Zhou's words were simple and straightforward.
"Boss Yuan, if you can't take it out, you can compensate me with your body." Jiang Changxi stroked her face with one hand and knocked on the table lightly with the other.
"You ordered rice, not meat." Yuan Zhou knitted his brows and answered subconsciously.
"Haw-haw. Boss Yuan is really so lovable." Jiang Changxi said smilingly.
"Here's your Wu Rice." Yuan Zhou directly carried the Wu Rice to her this time.
"It looks like that. But I have checked whether it's cooked with the Wu Rice Leaf." Jiang Changxi looked at the rice in front of her suspiciously.
"Um." Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
"It can really be cooked?" Jiang Changxi picked up the chopsticks and tasted it with doubt.
The Wu Rice itself was very simple. The sugar cooked by Yuan Zhou was added separately and wasn't sprinkled on the rice. Therefore, Jiang Changxi only ate the rice.
However, once the warm rice grains entered her mouth, the unique fragrance of the Wu Rice Leaf spread out in her mouth.
The rice grains were soft and elastic. When being chewed, there was still a strong fragrance of rice. However, when the thoroughly soaked rice was bitten open, the unique fragrance of herbs also swept over.
"It's so fragrant." Jiang Changxi couldn't help saying that.
Not until she swallowed a mouthful of the rice did Jiang Changxi put down the chopsticks and looked at Yuan Zhou, saying incredulously, "It's not scientific!"
