The old lady was about to touch the album when she received it, but she seemed to have thought of something and retracted her hand. She carefully put the album away, thanked Luo Xingyu, and left.

“It seems like the old lady really likes my songs. I have to work harder in the future and not let my fans down.” Luo Xingyu silently calculated in his heart.

Of course, although Luo Xingyu’s imagination was running wild, he still knew what his main task was now, so his hands did not slow down as he continued to sign autographs for his fans. He had a dinner date with his Senior Sister and cousin sister today, so he had to finish signing as soon as possible.

It’s said that you need to line up in advance for the Osmanthus cakes!

After the old lady left the stadium after Luo Xingyu signed his name, she came to the bus stop. She wasn’t familiar with the roads here and her eyes weren’t very good, but she still tried to get closer to see the name of the route on the bus stop.

“Taoxi road, Taoxi road, which bus should I take?” The old lady mumbled as she tried to get as close as possible to see the words on the paper.

Unfortunately, his eyes were not enough to see clearly. He could only wait for the bus to arrive and ask the driver. If he didn’t want to go there, he would get off.

Although the old lady opened her mouth a few times, she didn’t ask the people around her. Occasionally, some kind people would ask, but she would just wave her hand, indicating that they didn’t need help. She just held the cloth bag with the album tightly in her arms again, as if she was afraid that it would be broken.

Asking for directions took a lot of time. When the granny arrived at Taoxi road, Yuan Zhou was already preparing the ingredients for dinner.

Touching the only bun left in the bag, the old lady thought for a while and muttered,””I’d better go back and eat. I’ve only eaten two before and I’m not very hungry now. ”

As he said that, he touched his belly and felt that it was indeed not flat. Then, he carefully held the bag and walked around the intersection of Taoxi road to the side street at the back. Compared to the bustling road in front, this place was indeed much quieter. At least, no one would pass by for most of the day. Most of the people who passed by here took shortcuts because they were the natives of Taoxi road.

The old lady was obviously more familiar with this place than when she was looking for the bus. Perhaps she had explored the terrain in advance, because she was not a resident of Taoxi road.

“Ta ta ta”

Slightly heavy footsteps sounded on the quiet street, which attracted the attention of rice and the others. When the old grandma approached the back door of master chef Restaurant, lady three had already stood up and was looking at the old grandma.

Apparently, the old lady had also seen it. She stood directly at broth’s former site. There used to be several garbage cans there, but since Taoxi road had been built with a centralized garbage disposal place, this place had been cleaned up and removed.

In chief Wang’s words,”if the garbage is left there, it will definitely affect boss Yuan’s mood to cook. It must be disposed of.”

As a result, the place was now very clean. The eave lamp behind the store could light up the corner of the wall, so it did not seem dark.

The old lady just stood there without moving or saying anything, as if she was waiting for something.

Meanwhile, rice and the rest observed the old lady for more than ten minutes and found that she did not change her position at all. After confirming that there was no danger, they lazily lay back in their nests.

As time passed, the bright sky gradually darkened and night gradually fell. Although it was almost time for dinner to end, the store was still very lively.

The old lady had been standing there for the whole afternoon. Except for changing her feet and moving her body, she didn’t move at all. Even her posture didn’t change much. If it weren’t for the occasional movement of her eyes, one would almost think that she was a wax figure.

After the opening hours ended and before he prepared the food for the pub, Yuan Zhou took out the dinner that he had prepared for them. He came to feed them at this time every day.

“Rice, noodles, and rice soup. It’s time to eat,”

The voice arrived before the person.

The door opened with a sound of “Zhi ka”. Yuan Zhou’s figure appeared and soon walked out.

Yuan Zhou’s five senses were very sharp. Therefore, the moment he walked out, he felt the presence of someone. He raised his head and saw the figure of the granny.

The hunched figure was half hidden and half revealed in the light. To be honest, if Yuan Zhou wasn’t so bold, he would probably be startled.

With just a glance, Yuan Zhou judged that the granny had been standing there for a long time, as her mouth was so dry that the skin had started to peel. Therefore, with a frown, Yuan Zhou directly turned around and returned to the restaurant with the rice in his hands.

The door of the restaurant was an automatic sensor. Therefore, as soon as Yuan Zhou went back, the door was closed with a sound of ‘pa’.

When the granny saw Yuan Zhou come out and heard his voice, her eyes brightened. Just when she was about to walk over, she saw Yuan Zhou turn around and go back. Her eyes that had brightened up immediately dimmed.

The granny moved her feet a few times and wanted to leave, but she couldn’t bear to give up this opportunity. Just when she was hesitating, Yuan Zhou came back.

He walked to the old lady with a glass cup in his hand and offered it to her.””Old man, let’s have a drink first.”

It turned out that Yuan Zhou could tell at a glance that the granny must be busy and hadn’t drunk water for a long time. He was afraid that her body couldn’t take it. Therefore, he went back to the restaurant very quickly and poured a cup of warm water for her.

The granny took a look at Yuan Zhou and took the water. Then, she said gratefully,””Thank you,” she said.

“Gudong, gudong.”

Perhaps she was extremely thirsty, the old woman took the cup and drank it directly. It didn’t take long for her to finish the cup of water.

“Do you want more?” Yuan Zhou took the empty cup and asked.

“No need. Thank you, boss Yuan.” The old lady said in a hoarse voice.

“It’s nothing. You’re welcome. May I ask if you’re looking for me? next time, you can come in from the main entrance. I don’t come here often.” Yuan Zhou said.

The old lady waved her hands.”It’s okay, it’s okay. I just waited for a while. It didn’t take long.”

Then, after hesitating for a few times, he said to Yuan Zhou,””Boss Yuan, can you please cook a serving of egg fried rice for me? I want to bring it back for my daughter to eat. I heard that the egg fried rice served here by boss Yuan is the best fried rice in the world. My daughter’s appetite has been particularly bad recently and she hasn’t eaten anything for a long time.”

When the granny said that, she looked at Yuan Zhou with a slightly pleading look. Obviously, she was very eager for him to agree to her request.

In order to find delicious food, this wasn’t the first time that the granny had wandered around the boundaries of Chengdu. However, most of the people here said that the dishes cooked by boss Yuan of master chef Restaurant were the best. She came here twice to observe secretly and found that there were always people waiting in line. Moreover, many of them were familiar faces. With just one look, she could tell that they were returning customers. The proportion was quite high. Therefore, she made up her mind to come to Yuan Zhou.

Of course, in order not to disturb Yuan Zhou’s business, the granny waited in the back alley that she had found when she checked the terrain earlier.

When Yuan Zhou heard the Granny’s request, his first reaction was,”why didn’t the daughter come by herself? she even asked her mother to come. That’s a little outrageous.”
