The noisy sound had already attracted everyone's attention. At this time, Shopkeeper Liu just came out of the kitchen and asked, "What's all the commotion?"

The waiter was like he had found his savior. "Boss, you're here. There are two little beggars here who won't leave no matter how hard we try."

Shopkeeper Liu didn't notice Jiang Yutong in the corner. When he heard this, he scolded loudly, "What a waste! If you chase him away, what if he scares the customers?"

Jiang Yutong was originally having a meal and didn't want to disturb Shopkeeper Liu, but now when he heard his voice, he said, "Shopkeeper Liu, this is not a good way to do business."

Shopkeeper Liu heard the familiar voice and hurried out to greet it. "Oh, Yutong, it's you. I'm so sorry that the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple."

Seeing that Shopkeeper Liu was quite polite, Jiang Yutong also said politely, "I just happened to bring my two children here to eat. I wonder if they can come in?"

Shopkeeper Liu saw the two children who looked like beggars following behind Jiang Yutong, and he didn't even frown. "You can come in, of course. Others can't come in, but the people you brought with you, Yutong, will definitely be fine. Please come in, I'll prepare the best box for you."

Originally, Jiang Yutong wanted to eat in the lobby, but knowing Manager Liu's taboos, she was afraid that the brother and sister would scare away the guests.

She thought it was better to make more trouble than less. After all, Manager Liu had given her face, so she didn't want to be petty.

Jiang Yutong led the obviously timid brother and sister into the box upstairs.

Shopkeeper Liu brought his waiter to serve Jiang Yutong personally. "What would you like to eat?"

Jiang Yutong thought for a moment and said, "I'll have pickled fish, spicy and sour potato shreds, braised pork, and a vegetable dish."

Every time Jiang Yutong named a dish, Yu Xueyi would pull Jiang Yutong's clothes and say, "That's enough, sister."

Jiang Yutong patted his hand soothingly, "It's okay, you can finish eating."

Manager Liu quickly left the box to make arrangements.

The waiter following Shopkeeper Liu asked in confusion, "Shopkeeper, why did you let two little beggars into our restaurant? Who is this girl? Why is she so important?"

Shopkeeper Liu said nothing. "Go do your thing."

Seeing that Manager Liu was so welcoming, the waiter naturally did not dare to be negligent.

When the kitchen staff heard that it was Jiang Yutong who ordered the pickled fish and spicy and sour potato shreds, they put all their effort into cooking, determined to present their best cooking skills to Jiang Yutong.

The chef even whispered to the waiter, "You must tell us the customer's reaction."

The waiter was no longer willing to neglect Jiang Yutong, and soon all the dishes were served. "Take your time, and call me if you need anything."

Jiang Yutong nodded and called Yu Xueyi and his sister to eat, "Xueyi, Huanhuan, eat quickly."

The brother and sister were so nervous that they didn't know what to do. Jiang Yutong picked up a piece of braised pork with chopsticks for each of them.

"Eat."

The brother and sister finally gave in to the delicious food and picked up their chopsticks to eat. This was their first time in such a high-end restaurant. They savored every bite.

Jiang Yutong also started to eat. She picked up a piece of pickled fish with chopsticks and found that it tasted good. It was worthy of being a restaurant with professional chefs. Although they only demonstrated it once on the spot, the taste of the food they made was very good. The knife skills were also very good, and the fish was sliced thinly, which was really good.

When everyone had almost finished eating, Jiang Yutong asked Yu Xueyi, "Xueyi, what do you think of this restaurant?"

Yu Xueyi nodded. "Very good. I never thought I could eat here before."

"How about you come here and be an apprentice, working in the kitchen? The salary might not be high, and the work would be tiring. Are you willing?"

Yu Xueyi's eyes lit up, "Sister, is this really possible? I am willing, no matter how hard or tiring it is."

Jiang Yutong looked at Yu Xueyi, who was only about ten years old, and felt a pang of sadness. "Okay, if you want, I'll help you arrange it."

After receiving a positive response from Yu Xueyi, Jiang Yutong asked the waiter to find Manager Liu.

Shopkeeper Liu came in quickly. "Yutong, how was the meal? Are there any improvements you can make to these two dishes? The people in the kitchen are waiting for your comments."

Jiang Yutong smiled and said, "Manager Liu, Jingshuilou is indeed the best restaurant in Yinbai County. The chef's skills are very good. Even I can't make these two dishes as delicious as they are. There is nothing to complain about."

Shopkeeper Liu was delighted to hear this. "Those guys in the kitchen must be so happy to have your approval."

Jiang Yutong pondered for a moment before speaking, "Manager Liu, I wonder if what I just said to you in the kitchen about the apprentice still counts?"

Shopkeeper Liu glanced at the two children sitting next to him, who were very serious. He probably understood. "It counts, of course it doesn't count."

"Well, I'd like to introduce the little boy next to me. His name is Yu Xueyi. Xueyi means human."

Although Yu Xueyi was a little nervous, he still stood up properly and bowed, "Hello, Manager Liu."

Shopkeeper Liu also knew countless people. He saw that although Yu Xueyi was dressed in rags, he was still a good person at heart.

"Okay, from today on, you will be our apprentice at Jingshui Tower. You will be provided with food and lodging, and the monthly salary will be 200 wen."

Jiang Yutong calculated that the wages were indeed low, but it was still good as it provided food and shelter.

He looked at Yu Xuehuan again and felt worried again. What should a little girl do?

Shopkeeper Liu seemed to know what Jiang Yutong was thinking. "For your sake, this little girl can come to the restaurant to help out. She will be provided with food and lodging, but she won't be paid."

Yu Xueyi and Yu Xuehuan both breathed a sigh of relief. Yu Xueyi was worried about how his sister would survive without his care. Now that Jingshui Tower could accept his sister as well, that was really great.

Jiang Yutong also knew that this was the face that Shopkeeper Liu gave her, so she solemnly thanked Shopkeeper Liu and said, "Shopkeeper Liu's great kindness will be remembered by Yutong in my heart."

"It's easy to talk about."

After resolving Yu Xueyi's issue, I finally felt relieved.

"Then I'll take the children to buy some clothes and bring them back later."

Jiang Yutong took out copper coins to pay the bill, but Shopkeeper Liu refused to accept them. "Miss Yutong, you are looking down on me, Shopkeeper Liu. How can I ask for your copper coins when you come to eat in my restaurant?"

Jiang Yutong originally wanted Yu Xueyi to feel that he was shopping in the store with dignity, so how could he not pay a penny?

"Shopkeeper Liu, I understand your intentions, but I'm treating my children to this meal, so please accept it."

Shopkeeper Liu also understood Jiang Yutong's intention and readily accepted the copper coins.

Jiang Yutong said goodbye to Shopkeeper Liu and walked back onto the street with Yu Xueyi. "Sister, I have some important things to do. When I'm done, I'll buy you some clean clothes."

Yu Xueyi and Yu Xuehuan wanted to refuse, but Jiang Yutong interrupted them, "We're away from home, and we can't let people look down on us. Listen to your sister."

The two people nodded solemnly.

Jiang Yutong came to the seasoning shop and explained her purpose, but she didn't expect things to go smoothly.
