Chapter 957 As Kind as Me
Yuan Zhou's face was solemn, his expression unchanged, he just didn't speak, he looked very indifferent, but he was having a lot of inner drama.
"Holy shit, is this a confession? Do I know this girl? It seems like I have met her a few times. No, she seems to be joking. Her tone and expression are very serious. Like Jiang Changxi, is she teasing?" Yuan Zhou's heart was in turmoil, but his face was calm, and he stood calmly without speaking.
Or I don't know how to put it more appropriately. After all, Yuan Zhou didn't seem to have much impression of the girl. He only knew that she was a frequent diner in the store.
Yuan Zhou stood seriously, then watched the girl finish speaking, smiled mischievously at him, then turned and walked out of the store.
"Uh..." Yuan Zhou straightened the hem of his Hanfu, not knowing what to say.
"It's most practical to wipe the table." Yuanzhou silently picked up the rag and continued wiping.
But on the other side, the girl who walked out of the store stood still slightly, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared, her eyes were filled with moisture, and her brows were slightly wrinkled.
"Hey, it's you, little girl. What's wrong?" The old woman selling steamed buns at the door of Yuanzhou's tavern looked at the girl at the door and asked.
"Mother-in-law, are you coming tonight too?" The girl said hello with a smile on her face.
"I will make one more trip now and come in the evening." The old woman smiled and nodded.
"Don't be too hard, mother-in-law. Give me a glass of soy milk by the way. Your soy milk is delicious." The girl pursed her lips and said.
"Here, drink something hot." The old woman quickly took out the soy milk from her backpack and handed it over with a straw.
The girl took the soy milk from the old woman and drank it directly. The old woman asked the girl what happened to her.
After all, the girl's face looked a little bad, so the old lady asked with concern.
When Yuan Zhou in the store heard the girl's voice, he subconsciously listened. No matter how good his hearing was, he didn't need to eavesdrop. He could just listen openly.
"There are no obstacles that you can't overcome. Don't be too sad, girl." The old lady's words were gentle and gentle, with deep concern.
"Mother-in-law..." The girl put down the soy milk. Under such concern, she finally couldn't hold herself any longer, and the moisture in her eyes suddenly slid down her face.
"Oh, what's going on? Come on, mother-in-law, there is some paper here. If you have anything to say, please tell me." When the old woman saw the girl crying, she immediately took out a tissue in a hurry and handed it over, and couldn't help but comfort her. .
"Uh? Are you crying?" Yuan Zhou said to himself in surprise and put down the rag in his hand.
Outside, the girl picked up a tissue and wiped her eyes haphazardly, lowering her head in embarrassment.
"It's nothing. If you want to, girl, just tell me. It might be better if you tell me." The old woman said in a gentle voice.
"My boyfriend and I broke up." The girl said with a choked voice, probably because she was drinking soy milk.
"Yes." The old woman nodded without saying much, looking at the girl encouragingly.
"I'm leaving this city. It feels like he is everywhere here. The path home from get off work is him, the fast food restaurant passing by is him, and the sycamore trees on the roadside are him. Especially this small shop, we used to come here often. "The girl looked at the door of Yuanzhou's shop with longing eyes.
Thinking about the reasons why Yuan Zhou didn't hang up a signboard that the two of them had discussed together, and the place where the flower stand was placed at the entrance of Yuan Zhou's shop.
The girl's boyfriend once asked Yuan Zhou for the flowers he carved. This place is filled with sweet memories of the two of them, even when they were quarreling, it was sweet.
"He also said that he would come here to order Boss Yuan's whole fish banquet when he got married. He said that we would have a luxurious meal together at that time." The girl paused and said in a gentle voice.
"So I don't dare to come again in the future. I want to leave here and never come back." The girl said no several times, as if saying goodbye to her love.
"It's okay, girl. If your mother-in-law treats you to some steamed buns, you'll be fine." The old woman said comfortingly.
"I will forget this place and him. I will never come again. Thank you." The girl drank the soy milk in one breath.
After finishing the steamed buns in two or three bites, there was still water in my eyes.
"Goodbye, girl." The old woman looked at the girl leaving with a gentle expression.
This time the girl walked faster, not as slow and hesitant as when she came.
Yuan Zhou, who was in the store and listened to the whole story, suddenly smiled.
"What a kind girl." Yuan Zhou said with a gentle expression.
Yes, the girl was indeed very kind. She was obviously very sad to say goodbye, but she didn't want her sadness to be transmitted to Yuan Zhou so she chose to say goodbye in a joke.
And Yuanzhou completely felt such kindness.
"Well, you're just as kind as me." Yuan Zhou took out his phone and looked at the bank's deduction information, his lips raised.
But no, this deduction information comes from the boxer donation website. The deduction information starts with one followed by many zeros. It seems that a lot of money has been donated.
Yuan Zhou, who donated in Song An's name and was not praised by anyone, naturally praised himself whenever he got the chance.
"Praise makes people kind." Yuan Zhou put down his mobile phone and muttered to himself seriously.
"Now that you can claim the rewards, it's time to create a new dish." Yuan Zhou suddenly remembered the rewards that he had not yet received.
"The system collects rewards." Yuan Zhou thought to himself.
The system now reads: "The mission is completed and can be collected."
[Main mission] Become the next Sichuan cuisine base camp and a demonstration Sichuan cuisine store in Sichuan Province. (completed)
(Task description: The annual Sichuan cuisine demonstration restaurant is about to be held. As the future god of cooking, this is the honor that you must win, little comrade. As the successor of the party, the honor belongs to you.)
[Task Reward] One of the eight major cuisines, Sichuan cuisine (can be collected)
(Reward description: How can an intermediate chef who has been evaluated by this system not have a complete cuisine at his side? Now that the task has been completed, please collect the rewards and reach the pinnacle of Sichuan cuisine. Come on, little comrade.)
"Ahem, let's discuss with the system and change the name. Little Comrade is really annoying." Yuan Zhou looked at the reward and said speechlessly.
The system now reads: "Comrade, as a chef, you cannot be bothered by these unnecessary names. Please accept the award."
"Receive it." Seeing that the system was unrepentant, Yuan Zhou hurriedly received it. He was too lazy to talk to the system anymore.
The system now reads: "The reward has been distributed and the host can view it."
After saying this, the system fell silent, leaving only a glowing, star-like light spot in his mind.
"Let me see how rich the rewards of this mission are." Yuan Zhou couldn't wait to look at the light spot.
When Yuan Zhou was concentrating, the light point was introduced into the depths of Yuan Zhou's mind. Now Yuan Zhou had no time to think about anything else. His mind was instantly filled with all the knowledge and skills about Sichuan cuisine.
It was as if top masters were demonstrating their specialty dishes over and over again in Yuan Zhou's mind. Yuan Zhou watched carefully and couldn't help but make gestures with his hands. It was Yuan Zhou digesting and absorbing these skills.
