#Three Thousand Food House Reopens!#

#Three Thousand Food House with New Decoration!!#

#Three Thousand Food House has Wine Flasks!!!#

As soon as it got dark, news about the Three Thousand Food House became a hot topic on social media. Compared to the unchanged delicious food at the Three Thousand Food House, what caught the attention of netizens was the latest renovation. The new decor was unlike anything they had seen before, with a unique charm evident in every detail, from the doors and windows to the walls and tables. They couldn’t quite put their finger on the exact feeling, but they all agreed it looked exceptionally beautiful and unique.

Many people shared photos online, especially of the small bronze wooden wine flasks on the tables, which seemed to be the majority. Netizens were amazed by the design of these flasks with wide mouths, round bodies, and three feet. They found them strange yet full of character and style.

Upon closer inspection, they realized that these flasks were used by “non-mainstream” (crossed out), “Orcs/Elves/Dragons…” and other fantasy races! However, some people were disappointed to learn that these special flasks were not for drinking; their purpose was merely for ordering and paying!

While some expressed a slight disappointment, others from certain races praised the Three Thousand Food House’s owner for being thoughtful. For their shy and herbivorous kind, drawing attention in public was their biggest fear. With these wine flasks, they could silently place their orders without attracting the notice of carnivorous races, making it a perfect fit for them!

As various netizens were happily discussing and exchanging friendly banter, a few lucky ones proudly shared their gifts:

【[Images] “The Three Thousand Food House is so considerate! Even when I brought my child along, we received gifts! Happy and surprised!”】

【[Image] “The wine flask is so beautiful! Although it’s for the kids, I can’t help but want one too!”】

【[Image] “Looks like there will be a father-son battle tonight!”】

Suddenly, the mood among the netizens turned a bit sour:

【”Ahh, why are there still gifts! I should have brought my little troublemaker too!”】

【”So stylish! The wine flask! I want one too! Is it still available tomorrow?”】

【”Ugh, I feel like I missed out on something amazing. Why couldn’t I still be a child!”】

【”I cried when I saw this. I was just proudly boasting that I successfully went to the Three Thousand Food House today, and now this! Sob!”】

【”Sitting in the Three Thousand Food House, suddenly the spicy chicken in my hand doesn’t taste as good. Sob, I need to ask the owner for one!”】

【”I’m at the Three Thousand Food House with my son! Does that mean my son will get a wine flask after we finish eating? Hahaha, his gain is my gain as a mom!”】

【”Such a good thing is happening! I got a table, but I’m thinking of bringing my runny-nosed little nephew!”】

【”Oh my, oh my, it’s so beautiful! I want one. Is there anyone willing to sell it?”】

【”Not selling! [Indifferent.jpg]”】

【”It was so hard to get, how could I possibly sell it?!”】

….

While all these discussions were happening online, the protagonist, Bai Xianzhi, was completely unaware. Nevertheless, he was well aware of the popularity of the wine flasks. At this moment, a young tiger race was standing before him, acting cute and asking for a wine flask.

“Boss, I’m still a kid, so can you give me a wine flask~”

Looking at the young tiger who was half a head taller than him, Bai Xianzhi hesitated for a moment.

“Sir, the small gifts are for children under ten years old, and you—”

The tiger youth moved his ears and wagged his tail, crouching down and cutely calling out, “Roar—”

“Boss, look, I’m still under ten years old!”

Honestly, seeing a tall and imposing tiger race acting cute was a bit overwhelming for Bai Xianzhi. He really wanted to give him one, but considering the eager gazes of the various races behind him and the limited number of wine flasks available, he had to reluctantly refuse the tiger youth’s request.

Watching the young tiger leave in disappointment, Bai Xianzhi hurriedly returned to the kitchen to avoid any further cute pleadings. Inside the kitchen, Tu Linlin was busy frying eggs and rice. After half a month of intense training, he had become proficient in cooking some simple dishes. The more complex dishes, like braised pork, were already simmering in the pot, ready to be served when needed. Next to him, Zhuo Long assisted him, and together they worked at a decent pace.

In the kitchen, two new dishwasher employees were finishing their work, and in a small room separated by wooden boards, a newly hired financial and human resources staff member, a snake girl named Wen Nuan, was warm and welcoming. She had recently graduated from the Orcs’ higher education institution and immediately applied for a job at the Three Thousand Food House.

Seeing Bai Xianzhi, Wen Nuan stood up and said, “Boss, based on today’s situation, we need to hire more waiters and apprentices, especially apprentices. If we don’t have enough skilled apprentices, it might affect the restaurant’s reputation as the business expands, and more customers come in.”

Bai Xianzhi nodded, “Okay, you can post the recruitment information, and once we hire people and train the apprentices, we can further expand the business.”

After a brief discussion, when no one was paying attention, Bai Xianzhi passed through a door on the wall to the other side. There were not many customers from the Huaxia side during lunchtime, except for Liu Qingshan’s family and a few people from the alley. They had yet to hire any staff for this side. Seeing that it was almost ten o’clock and there probably wouldn’t be any more customers, Bai Xianzhi returned to the other side. He planned to go upstairs and check on the two little ones. However, his communication device beeped, and he received a message from Feng Ye.

“Thank you for the books you sent, but I can’t understand them.” Bai Xianzhi could sense Feng Ye’s helplessness even through the screen. He had indeed overlooked something; Feng Ye didn’t know how to read Chinese characters!

Feeling speechless about his oversight, Bai Xianzhi replied, “Haha, my bad. I forgot about that. Just give me the books, and I’ll translate them for you.”

Feng Ye quickly replied, “That’s too troublesome. How about you teach me how to read the characters from your world directly? It will be a one-time effort.”

It was indeed a good idea, but teaching him how to read Chinese characters would fall under the realm of language arts, and Bai Xianzhi wasn’t sure if he could do it well. His language skills were barely passable, and he barely passed the language test in the college entrance examination. He doubted his ability to teach someone. However, he couldn’t think of a better solution, so he replied, “Okay, I have time every day from 9 to 10 in the morning. How about that?”

Feng Ye agreed, “No problem. I’ll come find you tomorrow at 9:30.”

Putting the communication device back in his pocket, Bai Xianzhi went to check on the situation in the front. After sending off the last customer, he gave each employee a bag of supper and closed the restaurant. He quickly went upstairs to look for the books, with Xiao Long and Xiao Lu curiously following his actions.

“Dad, what are you looking for?”

Since Xiao Long returned to him more than half a month ago, both Xiao Long and Xiao Lu started calling him “Dad.” At first, Bai Xianzhi felt a bit awkward, as becoming a father without getting married felt surreal. But after half a month, he had gotten used to it.

While searching through the books, Bai Xianzhi replied, “Dad is looking for a book. Have you both taken a bath?”

Both little ones nodded, “Yes, Dad, we’re clean. We’re waiting for you.”

Bai Xianzhi took all his textbooks from over the past twenty years and searched through them one by one. However, he couldn’t find his elementary school Chinese language textbook. He pushed the box of books back under the bed, turned to look at the two little ones, and said, “Let’s go, Dad will take you to bed.”

….

Early the next morning, Bai Xianzhi got up, and the two little ones were still asleep. He hurriedly went out to a bookstore outside Wutong Lane and bought two books on Pinyin and beginner Chinese characters. Upon returning to the Three Thousand Food House, he washed the faces and brushed the teeth of the two little ones who were just waking up, cooked breakfast, and after they finished eating, he had them practice writing some Chinese characters. At half-past nine, Feng Ye arrived at the gate of the Three Thousand Food House on time.

After wiping the table, Bai Xianzhi sat up straight, feeling a bit nervous as it was his first time being a teacher. He cleared his throat, “Mr. Feng, you’re here.”

Seeing Bai Xianzhi looking tense, Feng Ye couldn’t help but smile, “Bai… Teacher, I’m here.”

Bai Xianzhi’s face turned red instantly, “Hahaha, let’s forget about the ‘teacher,’ hahaha.”

Feng Ye’s eyes curved, “Teacher Bai, let’s begin.”

Bai Xianzhi nodded, “Oh, sure!”

The Chinese lesson with Teacher Bai officially began.

Luckily, Feng Ye was a good student, the kind that, with just a little guidance, could quickly grasp and master the subject. This type of student was a dream come true for many teachers. Whenever one appeared, they would be cherished and cared for like a precious gem.

However, Bai Xianzhi didn’t have experience as a teacher. After over an hour, he breathed a sigh of relief. At least, he didn’t feel like his level was so terrible that he couldn’t teach at all. In fact, he taught quite well, considering Feng Ye had already grasped the basics of Pinyin!

Feeling accomplished, Teacher Bai waved his little hand and announced that he was going to get something to eat. At this time, the Three Thousand Food House had not yet opened for business, but the employees were already there preparing the ingredients for the day. Bai Xianzhi went to the kitchen and took out a few sandwiches from a large box in a small room. He distributed one to each employee. Then he took four of them and went to the dining area. He gave one to Feng Ye, one to each of the two little ones, and kept one for himself.

The four of them sat outside and enjoyed the sandwiches. After finishing the last bite, Feng Ye said, “The taste is excellent.”

Bai Xianzhi chuckled, “There are more in the kitchen. Do you want another one?”

Feng Ye shook his head, just about to say it was too much trouble. At that moment, Tu Linlin and Wen Nuan walked out, each holding a sandwich while looking for Bai Xianzhi to discuss something. Feng Ye’s gaze fell on the sandwiches in their hands, and then he looked at Bai Xianzhi.

Bai Xianzhi: “…” Huh, why does it suddenly feel a bit chilly?

….

“Son, quickly go to Xiao Bai’s place and buy a bowl of braised pork.”

Liu Qingshan rolled on the bed, picked up his phone, and squinted to check the time. It was already eleven in the morning, but he had only slept at five in the morning. The sketching class had finally ended, and he stayed up all night playing games. Unexpectedly, he was now being asked by his mother to run errands. He grumbled, “I just had it yesterday, and we have to eat it again today?”

His voice was too soft, and Liu’s mother didn’t hear him. She shouted from outside the door, “Hurry up! It’s time for lunch!”

Liu Qingshan scratched his messy hair and reluctantly got up. After brushing his teeth and washing his face with his eyes closed, he went to the Three Thousand Food House and bought a portion of braised pork.

Placing the braised pork on the table, he sat down, calling out, “Mom, I bought the braised pork. Call Dad for lunch!”

The three of them sat down to eat. The braised pork in the center was quickly consumed, and within ten minutes, it was all gone. Liu’s mother put down her chopsticks, took a deep breath, and touched her face. “I haven’t eaten anything made by Xiao Bai for half a month. My face feels rough. After eating it for two days, my skin is smooth again!”

Liu Qingshan and his boss exchanged glances, feeling it was absurd. “Mom, don’t be ridiculous. Xiao Bai’s cooking is indeed delicious, but claiming that it makes your skin better is a bit exaggerated. Even he wouldn’t boast about his dishes like that.”

Liu’s mother ignored their thoughts and said, “You guys don’t understand anything. You are both rough men. Let me call Aunt Liang so wash the dishes after we finish eating.”

Ignoring the terrible news of dishwashing, Liu Qingshan and his father were speechless. Liu’s mother walked to the balcony, sat on a rattan chair, and made a phone call to her good friend.

“Hello, Lifen!”

“Chunhua? Why did you suddenly call me? What’s the matter?”

Liu’s mother smiled, “It’s been a few months since we met. Isn’t it appropriate for me to call you?”

On the other end of the phone, Liang Lifen quickly replied, “How could it be! What’s our relationship?”

Liu’s mother laughed heartily and directly said, “Lifen, are you still in S City? Let’s meet up. It’s been so long, and I miss you.”

“Sure! I’ve been in S City for the past few months. Let’s get together!”

The next day, Liu’s mother packed her bag, put on sunglasses, and with Liu’s father as her designated driver, they arrived at the commercial area in S City. Liu’s mother left her husband in the car and went to see her good friend alone.

The two of them arranged to meet at a café. As Liu’s mother entered, she saw her good friend Liang Lifen and hurriedly walked over, calling out, “Lifen.”

Liang Lifen looked at the woman in front of her, almost unable to recognize her, and exclaimed, “Chun… Chunhua?”

Liu’s mother nodded, took off her sunglasses, and sat opposite her friend. She noticed that Liang Lifen’s face looked haggard and much older than a few months ago. There were also many blemishes on her cheeks. “Lifen, what happened to you in just a few months?”

Liang Lifen didn’t want to burden her good friend with her troubles, but when someone close showed concern, she couldn’t hold back her grievances. After wiping her moist eyes, she shared everything that had happened to her in the past few months.

It was a very common and cliché story. She accompanied her husband through all the hardships and the challenges of starting a business, but a few months ago, her husband cheated with a young female employee from their company. When the female employee became pregnant, her husband wanted to divorce her.

When she saw such scenes on TV, she used to consider them mere entertainment and quickly forgot about them. But now, when it happened to her, she realized the pain and suffering involved.

For the past few months, Liang Lifen couldn’t sleep peacefully. She lost clumps of hair, and wrinkles and spots appeared on her face. She looked at least ten years older. She begged her husband, but her desperate appearance only made him more disgusted and resolute in getting a divorce.

After months of pleading, Liang Lifen also saw her husband’s true nature. This time she came to S City to find a capable divorce lawyer through her brother. She wanted to get rid of the cheating husband completely.

Zhang Chunhua, Liu’s mother, became furious after hearing this and slammed the table. “What a scumbag!”

She looked at Lifen and said, “Have you found a lawyer?”

Liang Lifen nodded, “Yes, I’ve found one. We’re preparing the documents. I’m just worried that he might come here, and my brother left for another country a few days ago.”

Zhang Chunhua nodded and said, “That’s good. During this time, you can stay at my place. If that jerk dares to come, I’ll let Qingshan beat him to a pulp!”

The matter was settled, and the two women settled the bill and walked to the parking lot. Liang Lifen looked at her good friend and resisted for a moment before asking, “Chunhua, what skincare products are you using? Your skin looks amazing!”

No matter what they went through, a woman’s desire to look beautiful never disappears. Liu’s mother laughed, “I haven’t used anything special. I just eat something, and when you come to my place, we’ll have it together! It’ll definitely bring your skin back to life!”

….

Liu Qingshan looked helplessly at his mother and Aunt Liang, who were busy eating braised pork. He sighed, “Mom, please don’t use these pseudoscientific skincare claims to fool Aunt Liang. Eating braised pork for better skin? I think it’s just making you gain weight.”

His mother glared at him, “Go away! It’s none of your business! You’ll see when both Aunt Liang and I have improved skin!”

Liu Qingshan shook his head and went back to his bedroom to call his girlfriend and vent. However, he was surprised by her reaction when she heard about the skincare claims of eating braised pork.

“Really? Why don’t you buy me a portion to try it too!” she said.

Liu Qingshan replied, “Hey, you’re a college-educated person. How can you believe in this?”

Zhou Ling responded, “What does going to college have to do with this? Besides, I’m just trying it for a few days. It’s not dangerous. Remember, bring me a portion tomorrow!”

Liu Qingshan: “…”
