Chapter 393: After I became a regular customer at a restaurant

[There was a salted duck shop downstairs from where I lived in elementary school. My family went there every day to buy duck. The owner had already figured out how much my family could eat.

One time I wanted to eat more and ordered more pressed duck than usual, but the boss said that you couldn't finish it and didn't weigh it for me, hahaha. Later, I moved, but I still think the one downstairs in my house is the best, and I have to buy it every time I go back to China.

Last time I met my boss, I asked him if he still recognized me because he was about to graduate from college. He said, of course he recognized me. Now I can see that my boss has aged even through the glass. 】

[There are two breakfast shops downstairs from my house, one is closed until the sixth day of the Lunar New Year and the other is closed after the fifteenth day. The lazy one is criticized by customers from both shops because it sells fried dough sticks and the diligent one sells fried cakes. Their main products are different. When I go to eat, I never pay the bill because they know whose child I am.]

[I used to work in Zhejiang. There was a clay pot chicken restaurant below my rented house. It was really delicious! At first, I took my brother to eat together. Later, my brother went to school, so I had to go alone. I packed up the leftovers and came back for lunch the next day. I went there almost every day for a month and recommended it to my colleagues. I took one and returned one. It was really delicious!

Three years, a full three years! That boss witnessed me falling in love, living together, and breaking up. He learned about my breakup from my circle of friends, and he and his wife treated me to a clay pot chicken meal. Later, I left there.

The boss sent me a message asking why he hadn't seen me for a long time. I said I was no longer there and had returned to my hometown. The boss transferred me a red envelope of 666 yuan, and the boss's wife also sent me a voice message: "Little sister, after breaking up, leaving this place can really help you get over it faster. I hope you will get better and better in the future. Let us know when you return to Pan'an, and we will treat you to clay pot chicken."

"I have been eating rice noodle rolls downstairs in my apartment building. The boss lady makes them everyday. One day I suddenly wanted to try fried rice noodles, so I asked casually if they were delicious. The boss immediately put on an apron and said, "You eat our rice noodle rolls every day, don't you know if they are delicious?"

Later, the boss fried a big bowl, but I really couldn't finish it. The boss became emo and kept sighing, asking why I didn't finish it. I said you gave me too much, it was delicious, there was so much and it was so cheap, you were really kind. The boss then happily lay back down. "

"Personal experience: After I got to know the owner of a delicatessen, he made a set meal based on what I usually eat. He divided it into one, two, and three. One day, when I finished eating and left, a customer pointed at me and said loudly, Boss, someone ran away without paying. The boss calmly took out his phone, opened WeChat, pointed at me and said, "This is my VIP. I don't like scanning codes. I only like to transfer money. Do you have any questions? [Laughing and crying]"

"I often shopped at a convenience store in primary school. One time, I went to a closer convenience store to buy ice cream. I was seen by the store I often went to. I was embarrassed and never went to those two stores to buy things since primary school. I would rather go a longer way [crying]

What's even more embarrassing is that I live in the school dormitory during the epidemic, and my parents can't come out. It was the convenience store that gave me the phone [crying][crying]

Even though I was wearing a mask from a long distance away, he recognized me right away and said, "Girl, I'm here to bring you something [crying][crying]" I haven't bought anything there in at least ten years, but he could recognize me right away [crying][crying][crying]"

"Damn, when I was in college, I ate fast food at a small shop in front of the school every day. Their fried duck slices were especially delicious. Then one day I got tired of it, so I went to the next door and ordered a vinegar and pepper tofu casserole. The next day, when I ate the fried duck slices again, the boss looked at me with a half-smile and asked, "Is their casserole delicious?" [smile]"

"I was the same when I was in college. I especially loved the cold noodles in the new cafeteria. The boss remembered my taste and knew how to add seasoning without me telling him. Later, I fell in love with the fried rice in the old cafeteria, so I never went to the new cafeteria. One time when I went back to the new cafeteria to eat their cold noodles, the boss asked me aggrievedly where I had been eating during this period [laughing and crying]"

"I always go to the same masseur for massages. One time, he went out, so I found another one. When he came back and saw me getting massaged by someone else, he looked as if I had cheated on him."

"It's like someone is shouting "You're awesome, ma'am" every day under my post, and then I find out she's also shouting the same thing under someone else's post [laughing and crying]"

The regular customers under the canopy who often like to shop at the same shop owner can relate to this.

If you eat at a restaurant frequently over time, not only will the owner know you, but even the waiters in the restaurant will often call out to you when they see you.

Sometimes, even when we forget to pick up our children after school, they will run to the store we often go to to have a meal. Some enthusiastic shop assistants in the store will help our family take care of the children, and later they even know whose children they are!

Yes, there are people who will come over to you and chat about daily life and gossip when the food is served or when there are few people around. If you meet a few talkative people, you don’t have to go to a teahouse to listen to stories. You can listen to the waiters’ interesting stories in the store and hear some gossip about the streets.

For example, Old Xiao, who was cleaning tables in Li's Teahouse some time ago, has been talking about the newly moved next door young couple. They quarrel every day and smash pots and bowls all the time. The noise is like a war.

Old Xiao couldn't sleep the whole night because of their noise. Yesterday, when the couple was throwing things, Old Xiao, who was just about to go to bed, couldn't stand it anymore and was thinking of knocking on their door to argue with them, when he heard the man say...

When someone stops talking about gossip halfway through, how can someone who is interested in it resist?

I nudged him with my elbow and yelled impatiently: What's the matter, old man, why don't you say anything in the middle of a conversation! I was so anxious that I sweated. Tell me quickly, what did the man say?

The old man who was poked by the person next to him frowned. He was not a good talker on weekdays. When his temper flared up, he scolded the person who poked him: "Hey, you little bastard, you are really impatient. You poked me before I even finished speaking!"

"I'll leave a hook here. Storytellers in teahouses always do this. They leave suspense. But you have a bad temper and you like to stab people when you speak. If you have the guts, stab me. If you have the guts, go stab the storyteller in the teahouse!"

After venting their anger, they still had to gossip: Lao Xiao heard the man say angrily: "If you go out and find a gigolo, don't spend the family's money!"

I accidentally heard such a big melon, oh, it's so exciting!

Old Xiaotou told me today that he couldn't understand it, and said: Hey, you know, how cowardly this man must be. The woman is looking for a man outside, but instead of divorcing her, he just says he doesn't want to spend his money. It's really strange.

If you ask me, if the man can tolerate this woman looking for someone else outside, this woman is probably capable and can make money, which makes her man unable to leave her.

So he turned a blind eye to her finding a gigolo, but he was reluctant to see the family's money being spent by outsiders. He felt bad about giving the money to outsiders while not spending it himself, so he was always arguing with the girl.

No way? You old man, don't think so badly of people. You say everything for the sake of profit. Maybe they have a good relationship and don't want to separate!

Why would she be reluctant? If the couple had a good relationship, would they go out and look for someone else? Besides, the woman can't understand what the man is thinking, so how can I not know? I am an old man who has lived like this for most of my life, and the man looks so frail, and it's obvious that he needs to be supported by the woman.

To put it bluntly, if he really divorces the woman, how will the man support himself in the future?

He is neither good at literature nor martial arts, and he looks weak. He divorced his wife not long after getting married. Which girl from a good family would be willing to marry him?
