2626 Same age, different lives

Although it was possible to form a habit in seven days, it was still not easy to change a deep-rooted habit. Otherwise, how could it be said that a leopard can’t change its spots? one could imagine how influential Yuan Zhou’s influence would be in Taoxi road, where even the greetings were changed.

In fact, not only Taoxi road, but the whole Chengdu was also well-known, not to mention that with the growing popularity, the country, and even the whole of Asia, was gradually expanding its popularity and influence.

Master Xiang greeted them all the way here, and he managed to get his timing right. It was almost time to line up just as he arrived at the entrance.

Xiang Tao was five years old this year. He was different from the mature Lele. Xiang Tao was a little shy, probably because of his physical defects. But they were all children, and the most urgent thing was to grow up.

When they arrived at the destination, Xiang Tao insisted on waiting by himself. He didn’t come down earlier because he didn’t want to waste time. Although Xiang Tao didn’t know a lot of things, he knew that one had to line up in advance if they wanted to eat at Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. He didn’t want to waste any time. He was very sensible.

Master Xiang complied with Xiang Tao’s wishes and put him down. He raised his fan-like palm and patted his head, saying in a soft voice,”Xiao Tao, is there anything you want to eat today? let’s eat what Xiao Tao likes, okay?”

It wasn’t that master Xiang wanted to make things difficult for Xiang Tao, but they had already agreed to take turns eating each other’s favorite food. Last year, they had eaten master Xiang’s favorite food on this day, so it was naturally Xiang Tao’s turn this year.

Perhaps it was because master Xiang was an orphan, and he was not married and had no children, so he did not know how to raise a child. Therefore, his way of doing things was simple and rough. He treated Xiang Tao as a friend and brother. Even though Xiang Tao was young, he did not brush him off.

She didn’t know if it was fate that had brought Xiang Tao up like this, or if he had grown up well and was very sensible.

After getting used to the way they got along, Xiang Tao lowered his eyes and thought for a moment before raising his two small hands and making a gesture.

“Hey, do you want to eat dumplings today? I heard that boss Yuan just served new Fujian cuisine not long ago. We can see if there are any dumplings in the Fujian cuisine, but we can only be sure of that at noon.” Master Xiang said.

When Xiang Tao heard this, he nodded vigorously, indicating that he could decide after entering.

“Actually, master Xiang, you can try the Taro dumplings or Taro dumplings from min province. These are famous dumplings in min province. You should know Shaxian snacks, right? Taro dumplings are more famous there.” Dong Yiyi, who had long hair that reached her shoulders, suggested in a low voice when she heard the conversation between the two.

She spoke in a soft voice and knew Xiang Tao’s situation. Like master Xiang, she tried to speak slowly to ensure that Xiang Tao could hear her clearly.

Xiang Tao’s hearing had recovered after training and medical treatment. However, he did not know if it was because he could not speak or something else, but his ears could not process the sounds he heard in time. If the sounds were concentrated quickly, it would be like a bee buzzing in his ear, and he could not tell what was being said.

Therefore, when master Xiang, a burly man, talked to Xiang Tao, he always spoke in a soft and slow voice. In fact, not only master Xiang, but also the neighbors on Taoxi road and some regular customers, talked to Xiang Tao in this way.

Although he couldn’t speak, master Xiang had taken good care of him. He was white and chubby, like a New Year doll, which looked very festive, especially in summer, when his white and tender arms and legs were exposed, he would look like a lotus root. Looking at him, one would want to pinch him. Not to mention that Xiang Tao was polite, sometimes he would even help master Xiang entertain guests and do what he could.

Towards such a child, any normal person would naturally not speak ill of him. They would even subconsciously accommodate him. This was all human nature.

Dong Yiyi was a regular customer of master chef Restaurant, so naturally, she was also master Xiang’s regular customer. Therefore, when she heard the conversation between the two of them, she interrupted and gave her opinion.

“Oh, it’s teacher Dong. Since you’re the one who introduced us, why don’t we try it today?”

The first half of master Xiang’s sentence was directed at Dong Yiyi, while the second half was directed at Xiang Tao.

Dong Yiyi was a kindergarten teacher who worked in a nearby kindergarten. She was a very kind person and usually liked Xiang Tao the most. Therefore, as soon as Xiang Tao saw her, he threw himself at her, hugged her arm affectionately and started shaking it, as if he was acting coquettishly.

Children were the most sensitive to the kindness of adults. For Xiang Tao to like Dong Yiyi so much, he naturally felt that she was also very good to him.

Speaking of which, Dong Yiyi was also very popular with children. It was unknown if she was popular with children first or if she was popular with her job as a kindergarten teacher. In any case, they complemented each other. At the very least, Dong Yiyi’s current job was like a fish in water.

“Little Tao looks even more handsome today. You have to eat hard to grow taller.” The curve at the corner of Dong Yiyi’s mouth widened. She gently stroked Xiang Tao’s head and began to talk to him in a low voice.

Meanwhile, master Xiang stood in front, rubbing his hands together. He wanted Dong Yiyi to stand in front, but both of them were from the first echelon. It didn’t matter if they changed positions or not.

Looking at Dong Yiyi and Xiang Tao’s warm interaction, master Xiang also felt very warm. He had heard that teacher Dong was divorced and had a child. He wondered if teacher Dong had a chance.

“Boss Yuan, you’re no longer single. I should also speed up.” Master Xiang secretly thought.

They were all from the same street. Master Xiang was about the same age as Yuan Zhou and was even a little younger than him. In addition, many of the young men on the street had gone out to work, leaving only a few young people on this side of the street. Yuan Zhou was one of them, and so was master Xiang. Naturally, the gazes of all the young people in the street were focused on him. The two of them could be said to have some appreciation for each other. Therefore, Yuan Zhou might have mentioned master Xiang with the intention of sharing the burden with him.

Ever since Yuan Zhou became famous, many uncles and aunties in Taoxi road started to worry about Yuan Zhou’s marriage. Of course, they just asked him about his requirements enthusiastically and then began to introduce the girls of the right age in their hands.

Yuan Zhou was still unwilling to go on blind dates. It wasn’t that he didn’t like the girls that were introduced to him, but that he felt that he was so handsome and talented that he didn’t even need to go on blind dates to find a girlfriend. On the contrary, blind dates would lower his status. Only people like sun Ming would need blind dates.

Master Xiang, who didn’t know what Yuan Zhou was thinking, was secretly peeking at Dong Yiyi. He didn’t do it very obviously, but it wasn’t like no one noticed it. However, everyone just looked at her for a while and smiled knowingly, and no one exposed anything.

While Dong Yiyi was conversing with master Xiang’s father and son, a few young men in front of them were gambling. Because the line was right in front of them, it was not abrupt for them to be gathered together. However, they were not all in a circle, but their heads were close together, so they did not disturb the people in front and behind.

The most eye-catching thing about them was their colorful hair. One of them really had red, yellow, blue, and green hair. No one else had such hair, especially the young man with green hair. No one knew what he was thinking.
