Chapter 1515: An antique

Uncle Luo tuo did not answer Peach’s doubts, but seeing that most of the customers had left, peach also left.

After all, she still had to go back to the company. As soon as she returned to the company, peach went to the office to report to Jiang Changxi about the situation at noon.

After the report, peach asked,”director Jiang, do I still have to go tonight?”

“No need, you don’t need to go tonight. Go out.” Jiang Changxi waved her hand and said.

“Alright,” he said. Taozi nodded, then left the office and gently closed the door.

As for Jiang Changxi, she lowered her head and continued to work earnestly.

On the other side, Yuan Zhou went upstairs to wash up and change his clothes after he finished cleaning up. Then, he waited for Yin ya to come and drink.

Even after they got together, Yin ya still came here to drink every day. This could also be considered as a fixed date for them.

When they were drinking, it was the same as usual. One of them was responsible for pouring the wine while the other was responsible for drinking. Later on, it was Yuan Zhou’s turn to read while Yin ya translated the books at the side.

The atmosphere was harmonious as usual, but there was an indescribable sweetness in it. Perhaps it was because the two of them would suddenly look up at each other as they read, or they would say a few words from time to time.

It was this kind of behavior that made this one hour of alone time sweet and tacit.

Sweet times were always short-lived. An hour passed very quickly. Yin ya stood up and left. As usual, Yuan Zhou sent her to the door and then watched her leave Taoxi road for her own company.

Of course, it was Yin ya’s own request to send him to the door, because she knew that Yuan Zhou had sacrificed a lot of other time to practice cooking skills in order to make time to accompany her. Therefore, she had such a request.

......

As soon as Yin ya left, Yuan Zhou went straight to the front and prepared to practice sculpting.

However, there were already people waiting at the front door today.

And this person was uncle Luo tuo, who had just brought a Husky named Romeo at noon. He was holding two wooden boxes and standing in front of the door waiting.

As soon as he saw Yuan Zhou appear, he immediately greeted him,””Good afternoon, boss Yuan,”

Yuan Zhou nodded his head in response. Then, he walked to the chair in the corridor and sat down.

“Nice to meet you. Boss Yuan, I don’t have much to give you. I just want to give you two ornaments to display.” Uncle Luo tuo smiled and handed over the box in his hand.

“A present?” Yuan Zhou looked at the box in front of him with puzzlement, but he didn’t reach out to take it.

“Humm. I think boss Yuan’s restaurant is very classy. You should put some antiques there.” Uncle Luo tuo nodded.

“That’s right, I’m called Zong mo. I own an antique shop over there. ” Uncle Luo tuo, also known as Zong mo, just remembered that he had not introduced himself yet, and quickly added.

“No need,” Yuan Zhou nodded his head, indicating that he had heard his self-introduction, but he still refused his gift verbally.

“Boss Yuan, don’t misunderstand me. I don’t want to borrow your restaurant to do business. After all, I sell antiques. I don’t have any business for half a year. Once I do, I can eat for half a year. I don’t need any advertisement.” Zong mo explained.

“And it’s just two purified bottles. In ancient times, these things were used to hold hand-washing water. They’re not anything good.” Zong mo continued.

“I don’t accept gifts, and this is too expensive.” Yuan Zhou said frankly.

“Oh? Boss Yuan, you know about antiques?” Zong Mo’s eyes suddenly lit up as he looked at Yuan Zhou and asked seriously.

“I don’t understand.” Yuan Zhou shook his head decisively and then continued,””But this is from the dingyao kiln in Quyang County, Hebei, where white porcelain is produced. This pair is a small white glaze bottle with a dragon head and Lotus patterns, and the bigger one is in the museum.”

“Yes, yes, yes. He’s the one who sets the kiln. I didn’t expect boss Yuan to be so knowledgeable.” Zong mo said in pleasant surprise.

“I don’t know much about antiques, but I’ve seen this when I was reading books.” Yuan Zhou continued to shake his head and said.

“Boss Yuan, since you understand me, I’ll tell you the truth. This is one of the 18 items that Buddhist monks carry with them when they go out. It’s used to drink water or clean their hands. Later, it was also enshrined in front of Buddha. Therefore, it’s quite good to put it in your restaurant.” Zong mo said.

“This pair of bottles should have a history of a thousand years. It’s too expensive, so I can’t accept it.” Yuan Zhou said affirmatively.

“No, no, no. Please don’t misunderstand. I’ve been to many restaurants with good food, including the private kitchen of the descendant of the royal chef in the capital. But none of them are as good as your craftsmanship, boss Yuan.” Zong mo said.

“Thank you for the compliment.” Yuan Zhou thanked him earnestly with a straight face.

“But they have antique paintings and antiques in their shop. They look pretty cool, so I’m going to send two over to your shop to show them off.” Zong mo continued.

“.........Thank you.” This reason made Yuan Zhou fall silent for a while and then refused again.

For some reason, when Yuan Zhou looked at Zong mo in front of him, he felt as if he was looking at Wu Hai, who shamelessly wanted to hang the painting in his restaurant.

“You really can ‘t?” Zong mo continued to ask, unwilling to give up.

“No,” Yuan Zhou nodded his head affirmatively.

“All right. Boss Yuan, why don’t you go to my restaurant and pick out what you like and put it on your own?” Zong mo was originally listless, but when he said that, he looked at Yuan Zhou excitedly.

“No need,” Yuan Zhou continued to shake his head.

“It’s a pity. Boss Yuan, I think it would look better if you had some antiques in your restaurant. ” Zong mo said.

“I think if there’s a seat, the customers would be more willing to have more chairs.” Yuan Zhou suddenly said.

“You’re right. ” Zong mo nodded his head in agreement and left.

Looking at Zong Mo’s departing figure, Yuan Zhou couldn’t help sighing with emotion,””The customers these days are getting weirder and weirder. They all want to give me gifts. As expected, one can’t be too charming.”

After saying that, Yuan Zhou heaved a deep sigh and then lowered his head to sculpt.

To Yuan Zhou, this was just an interlude. Because it wasn’t only Zong mo, Wu Yungui and the others who wanted to give Yuan Zhou gifts, there were also others. Therefore, Yuan Zhou was used to it.

After the incident with Zong Mo’s gift, Yuan Zhou didn’t spend too much time sculpting outside before he turned around and returned to the restaurant. After all, it was time to prepare the ingredients for dinner.

Yuan Zhou didn’t close the door of his restaurant. He could clearly see more and more people outside. Of course, the first one was still Wu Hai, the second one was Zong mo who had just failed to deliver the gift, and the third one was Jiang Changxi.

That’s right. Jiang Changxi came for dinner. She was wearing a pure Black Face Mask and a black wool hat, only revealing a pair of big red eyes at the end of her eyes. She looked a bit sick and weak. She was standing there and queuing up seriously.

Of course, Yuan Zhou didn’t see Jiang Changxi before the dinner started. When the dinner started and she entered the restaurant, Zhou Jia called her sister Jiang. Only then did Yuan Zhou raise his head and look at her. Then, he directly walked past her.

“I have a new dish, it’s Xiangchun. It’s rich in nutrients and has a certain diet effect. It’s very good for treating external cold. I suggest you try it.” Yuan Zhou said to Jiang Changxi who had just taken off her face mask with a straight face.

“Okay, then we’ll have fragrant Cedar mixed with tofu and fragrant Cedar fried eggs.” It was rare that Jiang Changxi didn’t tease Yuan Zhou but nodded her head obediently and said.

“Please wait a moment, it will be ready in a moment.” After a nod, Yuan Zhou turned around and went to the kitchen.

Looking at Yuan Zhou who had turned around, Jiang Changxi smiled slightly and sighed with emotion in her heart,””It’s still the same Yuan Zhou’s way of caring. ”
