20 years of living in a nursing home, 40 years of detours are avoided
#31 - Old He: Why does your broth smell like Chinese medicine?
"As for the ‘broth,’ I just checked. The boss controls the amount of ‘broth’ given to each table."
"On average, each elderly person gets about this much."
Jiang Yuan said, pouring a small cup of the ‘broth’ into his empty cup, which he had just finished, and cheerfully shook it in front of the camera.
The small cups that come with the barbecue restaurant's utensils package only hold about half a cup.
Having said that, Jiang Yuan didn't say anything more.
He just turned his gaze back to the wine glass in front of him, smiling, "We allow the elderly to drink this much on special holidays."
"If their internal distribution is balanced, and they only come to the barbecue once a month, these things will only satisfy their cravings and won't hurt them."
He Miao patted herself, overly frightened, "I thought the old man was causing trouble again. Thank goodness, thank goodness…"
Jiang Yuan indifferently poured himself a cup of ‘broth,’ "Even if they don't come to this place, according to the nature of those old guys in the nursing home, they'll probably sneak out to eat anyway. It's better to eat here; it's relatively safer."
"Boss, can we have a menu?"
He Miao ate a few more lamb skewers, and seeing that they were almost gone, she decided to order more.
She chose a few vegetarian dishes.
Suddenly, He Miao's gaze fell on something on the menu.
She couldn't help but glance at Jiang Yuan a few times, then quietly showed it to the caregiver.
After seeing the content, the caregiver covered her mouth and laughed, then showed it to the head nurse.
The head nurse's gaze towards Jiang Yuan was particularly meaningful.
Jiang Yuan: "? ? ?"
Live broadcast comments:
【Help! I really want to snatch the menu and see what these women saw!】
【If only one person showed that expression, it might not be anything, but three people, I'm really curious!】
【Hilarious! Grandpa Jiang, who used to be a big shot in the nursing home, is now being teased by these three women!】
【Jiang Yuan: You can say it directly. You're all looking at me like this; I'm panicking…】
【…】
He Miao wrote something on the order notepad, but the audience in the live broadcast clearly saw that after the barbecue stall owner received the menu, he was clearly stunned for a moment.
Afterward,
his gaze couldn't help but sneak towards Jiang Yuan.
"No…"
"What exactly did you order?"
Who could withstand such continuous gazes?
Seeing the barbecue stall owner give him an ambiguous look, Jiang Yuan felt a chill run down his back.
What the heck!
These three women were making him feel uneasy with their laughter!
What on earth was going on?
"You'll know in a moment. You're treating, so of course, we'll order something good for you!"
He Miao covered her mouth, laughing wildly.
"Ding-dong—"
"Ding-dong—"
"Ding-dong—"
Jiang Yuan's phone notification suddenly went crazy.
He was eating with three beautiful women outside!
How dare someone with no sense of propriety disturb him!
Jiang Yuan frowned and opened WeChat.
He saw a message from Grandpa He.
【Grandpa He: Little Jiang, are you still at the barbecue stall?】
【Grandpa He: Let me tell you, I encountered something strange. I just opened a bottle of your ‘broth.’】
【Grandpa He: Did you buy a fake? Why does it taste different from the normal ‘broth’? It has a medicinal taste?】
"Pfft—"
Even from this far away, Jiang Yuan could imagine the old man holding the ‘broth’ bottle, unwilling to let go, but with a puzzled expression.
Live broadcast comments:
【Brothers! Chinese medicine! The old man tasted it; it's Chinese medicine!】
【Next, we'll see how Jiang Yuan lies his way out of this!】
【…】
Jiang Yuan waved at He Miao, "Your grandpa!"
He Miao's eyes lit up.
She instantly understood, grabbed a skewer, ran to Jiang Yuan's side, and stared intently at Jiang Yuan's phone screen.
Perhaps because she was too focused,
He Miao didn't realize how close she was to Jiang Yuan.
Feeling the softness on his arm,
Jiang Yuan's eyes lit up.
Then he pretended nothing had happened.
He took the phone and replied to the old man.
【Jiang Yuan: Tsk! You country bumpkin! Didn't you see the foreign words on the ‘broth’? Those are all high-end goods I bought from abroad!】
Indeed!
As soon as the message was sent,
【Grandpa He: Little Jiang, I've never drunk this brand before. How much does this bottle of yours cost?】
"Head Nurse, my grandpa is secretly drinking ‘broth’!"
He Miao stared at the message on Jiang Yuan's phone and excitedly waved to the head nurse.
Hearing this,
the head nurse ran to the other side of Jiang Yuan without saying a word.
A fragrant breeze came from beside him, and Jiang Yuan felt a surge of excitement.
"Is that Grandpa He? What did Grandpa He send? Is it fun?"
Seeing that the head nurse and He Miao had both crowded around,
the caregiver felt that the skewers in her hand were no longer appealing.
There was no space left on either side, so she had to stand behind Jiang Yuan.
Three beauties surrounded Jiang Yuan.
But Jiang Yuan didn't even glance at them, focusing wholeheartedly on replying to Grandpa He's message.
Live broadcast comments:
【Hey, Brother Yuan, three beautiful girls are so close to you; don't you have any reaction?】
【What reaction? For Jiang Yuan, the attraction of three beautiful girls might not be as strong as an old man…】
【Tsk, what a waste! Why wasn't I the one who won a million dollars?】
【If you got a million from the program, would you lie down and do nothing in a nursing home? If you wouldn't, then you're not as good as Jiang Yuan. At least I see that Jiang Yuan is happy!】
-
Jiang Yuan typed quickly.
【Jiang Yuan: You probably wouldn't know the brand even if I told you. As for the price…】
【Jiang Yuan: A little over two hundred yuan a bottle!】
After Jiang Yuan sent this message,
Grandpa He's side changed to "Typing…"
Several minutes passed, and Grandpa He, lying in the nursing home, still hadn't sent a complete message.
He Miao looked at Jiang Yuan with some reproach, saying, "You really dare to say ‘broth’ is over two hundred yuan a bottle. Aren't you afraid of scaring my grandpa…"
Before He Miao could finish speaking,
the next second,
her grandpa's message arrived…
(Grandpa He: Little Jiang, why does this expensive ‘broth’ taste so strange?)
(Jiang Yuan: You wouldn't understand. This ‘broth’ is sold to rich people. Rich people usually have unique tastes.)
(Grandpa He: That's true, Little Jiang. Let's discuss something!)
(Grandpa He: You see, I've already opened this ‘broth.’ How about you treat me to this bottle and let me try this high-end stuff?)
Jiang Yuan could barely suppress the smile on his lips.
(Jiang Yuan: Okay, I'll treat you, but only this one bottle. If there's more, I'll report you to the head nurse!)
