Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
It wasnt until closing ti that Jiang Feng rembered he had completed a side quest and the system had given him a prop. When he opened the ga panel to check, he found there was an extra [Promotional Board] in his inventory.
[Promotional Board]: An ordinary promotional board that can attract the attention of passersby.
Jiang Feng took out the board from the inventory and pretended to have just found it in the storage room, placing it at the entrance, he said to Ji Yue, who was tidying up the trash, Senior, I just found a board. If theres any special dish tomorrow, write it on and put it outside.
Okay, Ji Yue said, grabbing three plastic bags in one hand, You go back first. I rember you have classes on Saturday, too.
Jiang Feng looked at the ti, it was almost ten oclock, indeed late, so after helping to put the chairs back in place, he headed back to the dormitory.
Weekends, for most happy fatties, are joyful.
Except for a few majors that also schedule classes on weekends, most UAL University students prefer to stay in the dorms and be happy fatties. When Jiang Feng went to help at the store, Ji Yue had ridden her electric scooter to deliver takeout. With a commission of 40 cents for each delivery and the UAL dorm buildings densely packed, if the Healthy Stir-fry Restaurant does well, Ji Yue could quickly beco a little rich woman.
Though the average of 20 takeout orders a day didnt seem to be enough for her to get rich quick.
When Jiang Feng entered the store, he took a special look the board was placed in a conspicuous position at the entrance, with fluorescent pen writing on it: Tomato and Egg Special for 17 Yuan.
There werent many custors in the store, and no one else was there except for Liu Zixuan, who was sitting inside playing King of Glory. When he saw Jiang Feng, he looked up and said, Feng, wheres Mr. Hao?
Hes gone to stock up on supplies, Jiang Feng replied, glancing at his watch. It was almost one oclock. Have you eaten?
I have, theyve all gone back, Liu Zixuan said, his hands constantly moving, Im too lazy to go back. Ill head to the library later.
Just as Jiang Feng was about to go to the kitchen to whip up sothing for himself, two custors entered the store. Jiang Feng glanced at them and thought, Hey, arent those the two roommates who moved out at the start of the sester?
The pair were also stunned to see Jiang Feng, looking sowhat bewildered. How did we end up at Jiang Fengs familys restaurant without realizing it? What did I want to eat today?
No, wasnt I planning to go to the Sichuan restaurant up front to have Mapo Tofu? Why did I suddenly feel like coming in for Tomato and Egg after seeing the sign at the entrance?
At this mont, the thoughts of the two shed together.
Tomato and Egg, they said in unison.
The old man had arrived in a hurry and left in a hurry.
Without cooking, he had recognized kinship with the Jiang family.
The father of Professor Li turned out to be Sirs uncle!
Not only were the Jiang Family mbers astonished; even Professor Li had been unaware of this fact before. Li Mingyi had been really confused in recent years, lucid at tis and muddled at others. During his muddled monts, he would talk about his eldest son, his deceased wife, Beiping City, and Taifeng Building. However, when he was lucid, he would not ntion any of it.
It was Professor Lis wife who told him that Li Mingyi had been recently muttering about Taifeng Building and clear soup liuye swallow vegetable; thats why he went around asking people to make this dish for Li Mingyi. Before he found Jiang Feng, he had asked many people, but every ti Li Mingyi just shook his head, refusing to even taste it.
If Sir had not chanced upon Li Mingyis lucid mont during his visit to Alan City, the two would not have recognized each other.
When Jiang Weiguo was young, he fled south with his father and so elder brothers after the fall of Beiping, experiencing man-made disasters, war, floods, and plague along the way. His father and brothers succumbed to illness one after another, and his mories of relatives beca very vague. He only vaguely rembered having an aunt who married a wealthy young master in Beiping City.
And Li Mingyi, in his youth, was precisely that kind of elegant rich young master. He did not suffer much even during the war years, and with his wife, he had two sons and a daughter, living a happy and complete family life. However, in a tumultuous era, he experienced the pain of losing his sons, daughter, and wife, one after another, until in his fifties, he was left with only his youngest son.
The two elders, after more than half a century, t again.
All Jiang Feng knew was that he had gone to class for a day, Sir had co and gone, and his family had gained a new relative.
But there was sothing Jiang Feng didnt understand.
Why didnt Grandpa finish cooking before he left?
Sir said it wasnt necessary, Jiang Jiankang explained, Both old n were so happy, whether the dish was made beca no longer important..
