“It’s delicious. This chicken soup is delicious. ” Old man Liu took another spoonful and drank it before saying.

“How is it, Grandpa? it’s good, right?” Liu Jianan couldn’t help but look at his Grandpa and ask.

“Not bad. Get yourself half a bowl too.” Old man Liu said generously.

“Only half a bowl.” Liu Jianan muttered.

“Half a bowl is good enough. It’s not much in total.” Old master Liu glared at him.

“I’m just afraid that you won’t be able to finish it and won’t be able to come again. ” Liu Jianan said quickly.

“Hmph,” he snorted. “Hmph!” Old man Liu snorted coldly and continued drinking his soup.

Actually, there was a reason why Grandpa Liu didn’t want to share too much. After all, Yuan Zhou’s dishes were all prepared for one person.

For example, the Qingcheng Mountain whitefruit stewed chicken in front of him was also the same. The soup was served in a brown rough ceramic pot. The milky white soup and the pieces of fresh and tender chicken floating in it looked very fragrant and attractive.

For a normal teenager, one can wasn’t enough. For example, Liu Jianan could drink three cans while Wu Hai could only drink five cans for fun. After all, there were only two small bowls of soup in one can.

However, old man Liu was old and frail. If he finished this, he wouldn’t be able to eat anything else. Old man Liu was very clear about this.

“This soup is neither too thick nor too light, just right for my taste. It’s really not bad.” Old man Liu drank the last bit of chicken soup in his bowl with a satisfied look on his face, because the next dish was served.

“Your eggplant with garlic sauce is here. Please enjoy.” Zhou Jia carried the second dish to the table and placed it between them.

“Alright, thank you.” Liu Jianan thanked him politely.

“Yes.” Old man Liu put down the small, clean bowl and nodded.

“You’re welcome. Please enjoy your meal. ” After saying that, Zhou Jia left.

“Grandpa, can I eat this with you?” Liu Jianan’s eyes lit up. He looked at the dark purple eggplant on the plate and swallowed his saliva.

This was how eating was. If you didn’t eat a bite, you could still bear with it, but if you ate a bite and weren’t full, then you couldn’t control your desire to eat.

Liu Jianan was like that now. At first, he could help his Grandpa to get the soup, but after drinking it, he felt so hungry that his stomach was growling. He had no strength at all and was drooling at the sight of the eggplant on the plate in front of him.

“Eat slowly.” Old master Liu instructed.

“I know. Don’t worry, Grandpa. I’ll eat slowly.” Liu Jianan immediately promised.

Old man Liu ignored him and picked up the chopsticks beside him.

The chopsticks were dark brown in color, and old man Liu’s hands were thin and yellow with many old age spots on them. At first glance, they seemed to be in harmony with the chopsticks.

He raised his chopsticks and picked up a piece of eggplant.

Yuan Zhou cut the eggplant into long strips, each of which was 5cm long. The White eggplant flesh had a dark purple skin, and the top of the strips was drizzled with a bright soup and decorated with some seasonings. The eggplant with garlic sauce didn’t look greasy at all. On the contrary, it gave off a refreshing feeling.

“It’s not the soft kind, it’s more interesting to eat like this. ” Old man Liu was satisfied with the eggplant on the chopsticks.

That’s right. Although Yuan Zhou’s eggplant was in the shape of a neat long strip, it was not soft at all when it was clamped by the chopsticks. It was still a complete long strip. The chopsticks were placed vertically while the eggplant was placed horizontally.

“It’s good that it’s not soft. I don’t have an appetite if I keep eating those soft and rotten things.” Old man Liu mumbled to himself before stuffing the eggplant into his mouth.

As soon as the eggplant entered his mouth, old man Liu couldn’t care about anything else. The White meat of the eggplant melted in his mouth, and the soup inside exploded on his tongue. The sour, sweet, and slightly salty taste swept through his entire mouth.

“Oh.” Old man Liu grunted in agreement and started chewing.

However, as the most oil – absorbing dish, the eggplant wasn’t greasy at all. It even had the original fresh feeling of an eggplant and was extremely delicious. Even the dark purple skin of the eggplant was soft and sticky and a little chewy, but it was so tough that even old man Liu could chew through it.

Therefore, the skin of the eggplant only added some flavor to his mouth.

“I didn’t know that vegetables are so delicious.” Liu Jianan told him to eat slowly, but he didn’t seem to stop even after eating three times.

In the end, Grandpa Liu only ate one – third of the plate of eggplant with garlic sauce, and the rest of the food went into Liu Jianan’s stomach.

If it weren’t for the third orange worm duck, old man Liu might have killed his grandson in the name of justice.

This dish wasn’t soup. When it was served, it was placed in silver tableware. It looked very exquisite and Grand like a mansion’s dish.

As soon as the dishes were served, the aroma of oranges and the aroma of the sauce rose up, whetting one’s appetite.

“It’s an authentic worm duck. ” Said Grandpa Liu.

Liu Jianan didn’t say anything but just stared at the duck on the table, waiting for his Grandpa to start eating so that he could pick up the chopsticks.

Fortunately, they didn’t have to wait for long. This time, old man Liu only ate a third of the food, but it was already a rare good appetite for him.

Therefore, even if he wanted to beat this unfilial grandson to death, he was really full.

“Hehe.” Liu Jianan touched his round belly and touched his head in embarrassment.

“Get lost,” he said. Old man Liu glanced at his grandson in annoyance and ignored him.

The old man ate slowly. When they finished eating, Yuan Zhou also announced that the lunch time for today was over.

Therefore, only master Cheng, Zhou Jia, Yuan Zhou and old man Liu were left in the restaurant.

Oh, that’s right, the man with the straight back had been standing behind old man Liu all this time without sitting down, so he naturally hadn’t eaten anything. However, he could smell the fragrance.

He felt that this was another extreme challenge in his mission life, hunger training.

“Master Yuan, are you master Yuan?” Old man Liu said to Yuan Zhou without getting up from his seat.

“Yes, I am.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head.

“Are you interested in cooking at my house? I don’t have many years left to live, so I want to eat something good.” Old man Liu didn’t beat around the bush and asked directly.

As soon as Yuan Zhou said that, both master Cheng and Zhou Jia were stunned for a while. Then, they looked at Yuan Zhou and waited for his answer.

It wasn’t that no one had tried to poach Yuan Zhou before, but it was obvious that this old man Liu wasn’t a simple person. He even had bodyguards standing around while eating. His status must be extraordinary.

“I’m sorry, I don’t have any intention of closing the restaurant. ” Yuan Zhou refused flatly.

“Don’t be in a hurry to reject me. You’ve prepared a birthday banquet for me last time and you still remember my taste even now. Doesn’t this mean that you value this old man?” Old man Liu said calmly.

“You know my taste so well. That explains a lot.” Grandpa Liu didn’t wait for Yuan Zhou’s answer and continued.

“No, I remember and know the taste of every customer, even if it’s the first time they come to my restaurant.” Yuan Zhou took off the face mask and said unhurriedly.

Hearing this, Liu Jianan, who hadn’t said anything just now, shrank even smaller. He wished there was a hole in the ground that could fit him.

Ye, you’re overthinking.
