"Why are you here again?!"
When Bai Ying saw that it was Bai Jingyang, she immediately said discontentedly. Hadn't she told him that Sweet's Food Store didn't serve breakfast? Why did he come so early?! He clearly just wanted to mooch breakfast!
"Hehe..."
Bai Jingyang let out a laugh. His little thought had indeed been seen through by Bai Ying. Yes, he did come to Sweet's Food Store to mooch breakfast. Although Aunt Qianhua's place served breakfast, he didn't want to eat it. Since he was here, he naturally wanted to taste the food in Sweet's Food Store. Everyone wanted delicious food. There was nothing wrong with that.
"Little boss, just let me have breakfast here. I'll leave 1,000 yuan here. The cost of what I eat every day will be deducted from it. Okay?"
Did she have a way to refuse? After Bai Jingyang finished speaking, he scanned the QR code and transferred 1,000 yuan to her Alipay account. Yuan Tiantian was also helpless. Since the money was already given, she could only accept it.
"That's all. There's no more noodles in the store. You can eat as you like!"
Yuan Tiantian made another batch of scallion oil noodles, then carried the pot out directly and announced to Bai Ying and Bai Jingyang that there was only this pot of scallion oil noodles. After hearing this, the two of them glanced at each other, then quite tacitly picked up their bowls and chopsticks and started to scoop the noodles into their own bowls.
Yuan Tiantian couldn't help but laugh and cry at their way of eating as if they were in a competition. However, seeing that the time was not early and the ingredients for today's dishes were not yet settled, Yuan Tiantian called Sheng Jing and was about to set off. But before leaving, she was entangled by Xiaojiu again.
"I want to go..."
Xiaojiu raised her head, blinking her eyes with a bit of moisture. Yuan Tiantian naturally took this cute little crybaby with her directly.
"Wow!"
Along the way, Xiaojiu let out a "wow" of admiration at all kinds of things, as if she had never seen them before. To be honest, Yuan Tiantian was a bit curious about what world Xiaojiu came from. She had asked the other party before, but Xiaojiu's answer was vague. She clearly didn't know the specific name, only saying that she lived in the water.
This answer was equivalent to not answering at all. Yuan Tiantian did consult Si Mo, but the other party didn't answer this question.
When buying vegetables, whenever Xiaojiu saw aquatic products, she would go up and say hello to them. Some small vendors saw this and smiled, saying that the child was really cute and full of innocence. But only Yuan Tiantian knew in her heart that Xiaojiu might really be greeting and communicating with these products. Bai Ying also had the ability to communicate with the animals flying in the sky. It was not strange for Xiaojiu to have the ability to communicate with these aquatic creatures.
Of course, Yuan Tiantian wouldn't say this out. Hearing what the other person said, she also nodded with a smile.
After buying the vegetables, when the three of them were about to go back, Xiaojiu pointed at a big fish tank when passing by a store selling ornamental fish and coquettishly said to Yuan Tiantian.
"I want it..."
Of course, buy it! Xiaojiu had provided so many pearls as "currency". Why not satisfy the other party's desire for a big fish tank? Of course, Yuan Tiantian also thought it was necessary to buy one for the other party. She couldn't always go to the bathtub to absorb water, could she? However, this fish tank was a bit big, with a length, width and height of 2m x 1.5m x 1.5m. It was a huge thing. Yuan Tiantian and the others couldn't carry it, so they directly asked the store to deliver it to their home.
Then they directly put it on the balcony, next to the flower pot that Xiuxiu had used before.
After the delivery man left, Yuan Tiantian filled the fish tank with water. Xiaojiu immediately jumped in, and her mermaid tail wagged cheerfully in it, splashing water everywhere.
Seeing Xiaojiu's happy look, Yuan Tiantian showed a smile. After that, Yuan Tiantian went downstairs to prepare the food for today. Xiaojiu was still playing happily upstairs, but Yuan Tiantian also told her that if she came down, she must not be in her original form. Xiaojiu nodded very obediently after hearing this.
Today's menu in Sweet's Food Store included sausage steamed rice, white rice, shredded pork with green peppers, three delicacies from the earth, sweet and sour spare ribs, and tomato meatball soup. They were very homely dishes. Among them, the new dish, shredded pork with green peppers, was 20 yuan per serving, three delicacies from the earth was 15 yuan per serving, sweet and sour spare ribs was 40 yuan per serving, and tomato meatball soup was 35 yuan per serving.
After the menu was put out, Bai Jingyang saw it and sent a message in his WeChat group for his friends.
Bai Bai: The little boss has changed the menu again today. The taste must be amazing again. I can't wait for the sweet and sour spare ribs!
Flower Shorts: Bai, haven't you ever eaten good food? Are you so attracted by just one dish of sweet and sour spare ribs?!
Yesterday, when everyone saw Bai Jingyang's message saying that he would not return to City S for the time being, the other three people in the group sprayed him. The other three asked Bai Jingyang to come back quickly, but he firmly refused. These three people joked privately that Bai Jingyang wouldn't have been brainwashed by this store, would he? When they saw today's ordinary menu, they couldn't help it. Just this?
Handsome Guy with a Heart: I said Bai, this really doesn't look that good. Come back. Dude will treat you to better food. I heard that there's a newly opened bar. Their seafood feast is amazing. Come on, guys, let's go!
Never Sleep Enough: That's right. Come back, bros will take you to eat good food. What good can there be in that shabby place and shabby store?
Seeing what the three of them said, Bai Jingyang sneered in his heart, then directly sent a big red envelope in the group.
Bai Bai: [Red Envelope]
Bai Bai: Stop talking nonsense. Come and taste it, and you'll know what real food is! The money in the red envelope is the air ticket money I'm providing for you guys. If you're a man, don't talk nonsense. Fly here today quickly! [Location]
Bai Bai: I've also sent you the address. I want to see you guys today!
Apart from the diners from the passing motorcade and Bai Jingyang, there was no one else in the store at noon today. The business wasn't very good, so the store closed early for a rest. In the afternoon, Yuan Tiantian went with Aunt Qianhua to handle the transfer procedures for that fast - food restaurant. When Aunt Qianhua came to the store and saw Xiaojiu, she couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
"Little Yuan, why are all the children of your relatives so good - looking? It's really enviable!"
Hearing Aunt Qianhua's words, Yuan Tiantian smiled. She always said that these children from other planes were the children of her relatives or friends and that she was just helping to take care of them for a while. When Xiuxiu left at that time, Aunt Qianhua even talked about it for a while.
After going through the transfer formalities, she would wait for all the certificates to be complete and then start renovating the two stores. Yuan Tiantian's current idea remained unchanged. She wanted to turn both stores into private rooms to create a more high - class dining environment. At that time, the menus of the two places could also be slightly different. For example, for one dish, it could be a high - end dish in the private rooms, while in the main hall of the food store, it could take the civilian route.
These were just Yuan Tiantian's temporary ideas. She still had to plan it carefully later. The renovation of the private rooms couldn't be completed all at once.
When Yuan Tiantian returned to the store again in the afternoon, she saw that there were three big boys in the store, playing around with Bai Jingyang. They seemed to be old acquaintances. Sure enough, as soon as she entered the door, Bai Jingyang grinned at her.
"Little boss, these are my friends! Let them taste your delicious food!"
