Chapter 1294 I Also Have a Gift

Wu Hai, who was about to leave, did not leave. Instead, he looked at Yuan Zhou with burning eyes. After a while, he said, "Why don't you go wash up and change clothes?"

"Yes." Yuan Zhou nodded.

"The carpenter and his apprentice didn't even leave your shop this morning." Wu Hai said suddenly and irrelevantly.

"Yeah." Yuan Zhou said.

"It's past dinner time and they haven't come out yet. You have to treat them to dinner." Wu Hai continued.

Yuan Zhou couldn't help but want to hold his forehead, but Ling Hong on the side was already stunned: "Shameless, you don't want to take advantage of me, do you?"

"It's not about eating, it's about sitting with you. I can sit with you." Wu Hai said seriously, stroking his mustache.

"You just ate." Yuan Zhou said.

"I didn't eat enough for dinner and I'm already hungry." Wu Hai said seriously.

"Wu Shameless, you are indeed a glutton. How long has it been since you digested it?" Ling Hong wanted to open Wu Hai's stomach to see if there was a bottomless pit inside.

"Would you like to sit with us?" Wu Hai turned to look at Ling Hong.

"Yes." Ling Hong nodded decisively.

"..." Yuan Zhou was speechless for a moment, these two were working together.

Then the two of them looked at Yuan Zhou with burning eyes, waiting for Yuan Zhou to agree.

"You go to the backyard first, I'll bring it over after I've prepared it." Yuan Zhou said with a cold expression.

"Okay, don't do too much, I'm not very hungry yet." Ling Hong touched his spiky hair and said with a smile.

"I'm hungry." Wu Hai said bluntly.

"Go." Yuan Zhou motioned to the two of them to quickly enter the Yingxia Wall Scenery Gate. If they didn't go in, Yuan Zhou was afraid that he would beat them to death if he couldn't bear it.

After the two people entered, Yuan Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face: "I wonder if she will be very happy to receive it."

As for Wu Hai and Ling Hong on the other side, as soon as they entered the door, Shen Min, who had gone to the second floor of the tavern early to clean up, was taken directly to Lian Carpenter and Ma Xiao in the backyard.

Lian Carpenter and Ma Xiao were sitting at the stone table where Yuan Zhou usually poured himself tea. After they arrived, they started chatting around Yuan Zhou.

Although the four of them were not very familiar with each other, they were all acquaintances. Among them, Wu Hai had gone abroad with Lian Carpenter, so he was naturally more familiar with them.

Because even Carpenter and Ma Xiao had already tidied up the backyard, not to mention Ling Hong and Wu Hai, and even Shen Min didn't know that carpentry work worth hundreds of millions of dollars had just been carried out here.

Because when Lian Carpenter saw it was getting dark, he asked Ma Xiao to clean up the backyard, repackage the wood and put it on the first floor of the tavern for safekeeping.

It was not because it was difficult to work in the dark, but because they were afraid that the water vapor in the dark would seriously damage the wood. Therefore, Ling Hong and Wu Hai naturally did not know that what Yuan Zhou was going to give was a huanghuali wood box equivalent to a house.

Because there were two more people, Yuanzhou cooked two more dishes, which together made it five dishes and one soup.

The front of the tavern was handed over to Shen Min, and Yuan Zhou ate with the four of them in the backyard.

The atmosphere was very harmonious. After the belated dinner was finished, Yuan Zhou personally walked them to the door and said goodbye.

Once the people left, only the tavern on the second floor was still alive, and everything else became quiet.

Yuanzhou then went upstairs to wash up, changed his clothes, and went to the first floor of the tavern to take out the prototype wooden box and some long pieces of wood that he had made in the afternoon and returned to his room.

After setting the alarm clock, Yuan Zhou started carving non-stop. When the alarm clock went off and watched Shen Min leave, Yuan Zhou continued to carve.

He didn't stop what he was doing until one hour later than his usual bedtime. Because he was too tired to concentrate on it, Yuan Zhou even simply washed up before lying down on the bed and fell asleep.

The next three days were like this. Yuanzhou opened a shop during the day, made dish racks with Lian Carpenter, practiced carving and cooking, and stayed up late for an hour at night. It was very busy.

Yuan Zhou was so busy that his eyes had green shadows. However, because exercise had strengthened his physique, Yuan Zhou was still in good spirits, which did not affect his cooking skills.

Even because of the anticipation, Yuan Zhou was always in a happy mood.

By the way, I forgot to mention that it was not Yin Ya who told Yuan Zhou about Yin Ya’s birthday, but Ling Hong told Yuan Zhou.

Yes, Yin Ya didn't plan to celebrate her birthday. After all, women don't like to celebrate their birthdays after twenty-five.

Yin Ya guessed that Yuan Zhou wanted to give her a birthday gift but was not sure, so she felt anxious and uneasy. However, Yuan Zhou wanted to take the initiative for once.

The two of them arrived at Yin Ya's birthday with tentative and expectant moods.

It's Friday, and Yin Ya doesn't have any rest, she still needs to go to work.

With a night of anxiety, Yin Ya didn't get a good rest. When she got up in the morning, she applied a temporary facial mask and put on light makeup. She looked radiant before going out.

It was only half past six when Yin Ya went out, and the sky was about to get dark. Yin Ya was wearing a dark blue long-sleeved windbreaker-style dress that reached her calf.

Yin Ya's skin with dark blue lining is getting fairer, and her long black hair looks beautiful and gentle. The black shoes and handbag on her feet look perfect.

Yuanzhou, on the other hand, put the gift on the bedside table. Since there was no appointment time that day, Yuanzhou just washed up, changed into Hanfu, and went to the back door to wait without going for a run or exercise. Of course, he still had the wooden box with him.

"Boss Yuan didn't come for a run?" Xia Yu, who had gotten up early to exercise, looked in the direction of Yuan Zhou's store and was a little confused.

But at this time, Yuanzhou had already waited for Yin Ya, who was arriving at a steady pace.

Yuan Zhou's expression became more serious and he didn't move his feet until Yin Ya walked in front of him before taking a few steps forward.

In the quiet back alley, only the heartbeats of Yuan Zhou and Yin Ya could be heard. Noodle soup and rice were lying on the back door, leaning against each other. The sky was slowly getting brighter.

Finally, it was Yin Ya who broke the silence: "I'm here."

"Well, I wish you a happy birthday." Yuan Zhou never knew how to be tactful, so he directly handed over the box in his hand and said seriously.

A big smile appeared on Yin Ya's face, she took the warm wooden box with both hands and nodded.

She didn't ask Yuan Zhou how he knew today was her birthday. She just lowered her head and looked at the wooden box. The box was rectangular, about twenty centimeters long and ten centimeters high. The entire box was lavender. There were black lines on the surface that looked like a The lying little fox is very playful and cute. It feels very comfortable to touch, as smooth as a baby's skin.

"Open it and take a look." Yuan Zhou's voice was a little tight, but his expression was still very natural.

"Pah." Yin Ya nodded, and then opened the box directly.

The box was covered with a layer of lavender chips. On the loose wood chips lay four exquisite wooden hairpins of different styles. Each one was shiny, exquisite and beautiful, and they matched Yin Ya very well. They were obviously Very attentive.

Yin Ya raised her hand and touched the wooden hairpin in the box, feeling soft and moved in her heart.

"You did this yourself." Yin Ya raised her head and affirmed.

"Yes." Yuan Zhou nodded.

Yin Ya confirmed the answer, then looked down at Muchai in the box and stopped talking. There was a silence between the two of them.

After a while, Yin Ya looked up at Yuan Zhou, her eyes bright and her pretty face serious as she said, "Yuan Zhou, I also have a gift for you."
