Chapter 365: Breakfast "Ta Ta Ta", Yuan Zhou followed Broth quietly with his light feet while Broth walked forward step by step with the bowl dangling from its mouth .
"Hua La hua La", its tail was shaking very happily . "What exactly is the little thing going to do?" Yuan Zhou stood still for an instant and looked at Broth going forward . When Broth walked farther again, Yuan Zhou followed up . The side street was originally not long and just in a little while, Broth arrived at where he had lived . It was the place beside the trash can . "Woof, woof" . Broth first set down the bowl and barked . The action of setting down the bowl was quite gentle . With Yuan Zhou's eyesight, he could clearly see the broth inside the bowl not spill out . "Tsk-tsk . It's really a damn smart dog," Yuan Zhou couldn't help but mutter . As was expected, another dog crept out of a plastic knitting bag in a little while right after that . With the yellowish brown colour, it looked to be a mongrel . The irregular furs were unevenly distributed over its body . There were also some long furs on its mouth . When it saw Broth, however, it ran to him happily and started to rub against him . "Woof Woof . " The bark of the little Chinese rural dog sounded like a lot of delight . "Woof . " Broth first took a step back and then barked loudly . "Is this little brat merely a dog?" Yuan Zhou was quite suspicious about his eyes, because he caught sight of some pride in Broth .
While Yuan Zhou was still bewildered, Broth had driven the little wandering dog to drink the broth . Then, Yuan Zhou noticed this little wandering dog had actually two buckteeth exposed outside . It looked quite ferocious, but it was nevertheless very cute when it made mournful sounds in front of Broth . Finally, Yuan Zhou got to know why it was a stray dog . Even in the world of dogs, a good appearance was also very important . Such a ferocious look could hardly make people have sympathy on it . Even if it played cute, it looked like it would bite others . "This little brat surprisingly offers the wandering dog his own food . It turns out to be very much like his owner . Because I'm always of high morality, I can raise such a good dog as to sacrifice himself and help others . " Yuan Zhou turned around the said complacently . Having known what the matter was, Yuan Zhou then went back to his own restaurant . This time, however, Yuan Zhou took out another bowl that he had used before again and put it where Broth lived . Inside of the bowl was some clear broth that was used to cook noodles . After he finished that, Yuan Zhou went back to the restaurant and prepared to wash up and sleep . Before he went to bed, Yuan Zhou took out a book and started to read . It was a book listed in the table of contents of the book Cooked Wheaten Foods . Due to the huge amount, Yuan Zhou had formed a habit of reading for one hour before going to sleep . Along with the page turning sound of "Hua Hua", Yuan Zhou was reading the book earnestly . The atmosphere was quiet and tranquil . At the other side, however, an ear-piercing cough broke the tranquility of the night . The granny coughed ceaselessly . "Cough Cough Cough . " The granny coughed badly while swiping the phone . "It's this one . " The granny looked at it for quite a while before she finally confirmed .
She dialed the number and just in a little while a male voice passed from the other end . "Granny Feng, what's the matter?" The man asked with a caring tone . "Cough, cough, cough . I'm just asking if you are free tomorrow, Little Jiang . " That Granny Feng was the one that had helped Yuan Zhou to do the cleaning at the door of his restaurant .
"Granny, you are sick, aren't you? Did you go to the doctor?" The man called Little Jiang was immediately worried when he heard Granny Feng cough badly once she uttered . "Never mind . I just caught a cold . Do you have time?" Granny Feng asked again . "Of course, I do . I'm on the way to you . Now that you are coughing so badly, you must go to the hospital . " Little Jiang said that firmly . "No need to waste money . I'm alright . " Granny Feng said in a hearty manner . But she coughed immediately after she said that . "Wait . I'm coming to send you to the hospital . " There passed a sound of tidying things up from the other end of the phone . "I say no need to do that . " When people got older, people got naughtier . Granny Feng was even annoyed by Little Jiang . "Then you tell me what I can do for you?" Little Jiang didn't insist, but changed the subject obediently . "I'm just asking if you could do me a favor and attend to my stall tomorrow . " Granny Feng was still angry . She said irritably . "Yes, sure . But you have to promise me to go to the hospital . As long as I know you are well, I will go to attend to your stall tomorrow morning . " While Little was saying that, he had arrived at the door of Granny Feng's home . With his hair standing straight, Little Jiang was dressed in the shirt and suit pants and appeared to be in a hurry . "How could you negotiate with me? If you can't help, I'll do it myself . " Granny Feng said discontentedly . "Of course I will help . You are my grandma . " Little Jiang said proudly . "Good . " Granny Feng nodded her head with satisfaction . "But if you go to the hospital, you save money for me . That way, I don't need to take care of you . " Little Jiang said in an euphemistic way . "Are you sure you will attend to my stall dutifully?" Granny Feng asked suspiciously . "Don't worry about that . I will . " Little Jiang patted on his chest and guaranteed . Only then did he take Granny Feng to the hospital overnight . She was indeed seriously sick . It was a disease that affected mainly old people . When people got older, the resistance of their body became worse and sickness would come . However, the doctor still suggested she rest more . Therefore, Little Jiang directly went through the admission procedures . "Just a small illness . You are making a fuss . " Granny Feng lay on the hospital bed and said discontentedly . "I have told you, you are working too hard . Don't go to the stall for the small business, ok?" Little Jiang didn't feel well when he thought of the stall . "You don't understand . If I don't go tomorrow, many people will look for me . They are just waiting to eat my steamed buns . " Granny Feng answered proudly . "But you are too tired . " Little Jiang said with a low voice . "Anyway, you have promised me you will go to attend to my stall . Tell me then . " Granny Feng instructed him again and again . "Ok, sure . I will follow your instructions . " Little Jiang said helplessly . . . . Since he got a task, Little Jiang got up very early . After he prepared the Mantous and steamed buns, he got out of the home of Granny Feng . When he arrived at the place, He was startled, "So many people here . " When Yuan Zhou's restaurant was about to be opened, more people arrived . As this was the first time he was doing business, Little Jiang was embarrassed to hawk his wares . He only stood there silently and answered whenever people asked him . In a little while, two girls walked over to him smilingly, "We both want a serving of steamed buns and soybean milk . " "One moment, please . Here are you . " The two girls nodded their head with a smile . When they received the food, he felt that they seemed familiar as if they had ever met before . However, Little Jiang didn't remember whom they were even after they left . Shortly afterwards, a man that was holding a document envelop under his arm came over hurriedly and bought some soybean milk . After that, he walked away . Just like that, he sold many Mantous and steamed buns one after another . During the process, he felt that some people seemed familiar to him while some were not . Not until he took a break did he remember Granny Feng's words . However, these so-called acquaintances surprisingly didn't ask about Granny Feng's matters . About these acquaintances, Granny Feng knew all of them well . But these people didn't even ask about her since she didn't appear today . "That is way too strange . " Little Jiang took a look at the insulation barrel that carried the Mantous and steamed buns and then at the conspicuous big characters on it, "Specially Used By Granny Feng . " . . .
