Chapter 606: Wrong Person
Ling Sheng had not expected the boss of the most famous Chinese restaurant the Third Master had mentioned to be Brazilian. However, his Chinese was very fluent. The boss said that he had stayed in China for ten years to learn how to cook before coming to this restaurant.
The menu was very authentic, but in order to cater to the tastes of tourists from various countries, the dishes had been modified.
Ling Sheng ordered Mapo Tofu, sour and spicy potato strips, dry fried long beans, fried cauliflower, sweet and sour pork, and pickled fish. She also ordered clay pot tofu, which was recommended by the menu.
Of course, most of the dishes were what she wanted to eat. The Third Master could not eat much when he was out. The clay pot tofu was his.
As soon as the dishes were served, an old lady walked in. She was over 80 years old, but her body was very strong. When she saw the duo, her turbid eyes lit up. She exclaimed in surprise, “You’re really here?”
Ling Sheng looked at the overjoyed old woman in confusion. She did not know the old woman in front of her.
Jun Shiyan looked at the old woman. “Madam, do we know each other?”
“You don’t remember?” The old woman frowned, but she was still very agitated and happy. “How could you forget? Three years ago, you came with your wife here for vacation and even invited us to have dinner with you. You even said that if there was a chance in the future, you would definitely bring the baby over. Where’s your baby? Didn’t he come with you?”
Ling Sheng felt even stranger. She did not know how to feel, but she suddenly thought of her neighbor, the old granny. She had said that she had seen her and the Third Master four years ago. She had said it as though it was true. “Grandma, you’ve got the wrong person!”
“How could that be? I have a good memory. You were seven months pregnant back then, so you weren’t used to the food at our restaurant. Your husband borrowed our kitchen and cooked a table of food for you. In order to express his gratitude, he even invited us to eat with you.” The old woman was very sure and nostalgic. “That was the most delicious meal I’ve eaten in my life. I’ll never forget it.”
Jun Shiyan was confused. Three years ago, she had been seven months pregnant? She had not been used to this food and he had borrowed the kitchen to cook? The old woman did not look like she was lying. Perhaps she had mistaken her for someone else. However, he actually was expectant, as though he was hoping that she would continue speaking. He passed her a cup of tea. “Madam, have a seat.”
Ling Sheng looked at Jun Shiyan, her heart feeling chaotic. That was definitely impossible. The original host had been pregnant. Had the Third Master accompanied her here to have fun? What was going on?
She could guarantee that there was no such memory in her head. There was not a single trace of it. The old woman was very old. Perhaps she remembered it wrong and had mistaken her for someone else.
“Madam, you found the purple shell?” The old woman smiled as she pointed at the shell around Jun Shiyan’s neck. “When you came over, Madam was wearing a shell around her neck. Do you remember, Madam? You told me happily that your husband picked it up by the sea and gave it to you.”
Ling Sheng was dumbfounded. I really don’t remember anything. Are you sure you’re talking about the two of us? “Grandma, you must be remembering it wrong. I only met him this year.”
“No, I don’t remember it wrong. The waiter at our shop and my son and daughter-in-law were having dinner with you. If you don’t believe me, ask them.” The old woman was unhappy when she was told that she had recognized the wrong person. She hurriedly called out for her son. “Oh, come over here!”
The lady boss ran over first and looked at them apologetically. She helped the old woman up. “Mom, why are you out here? Come home with me to rest!”
