A pair of boots was neatly placed in the box. The shoes were dark blue, and the soles were spotless white.
This pair of navy blue boots reached the calf and was very suitable for this season to match the Han Chinese clothing.
Upon closer inspection, one could see that the boots were embroidered with a lotus flower pattern of a pond using su embroidery techniques. The stitches of these patterns were fine and dense, and it was not prickly to the touch at all. Instead, it was very smooth.
The material of the boot was softer to the touch than the cloth bag from before, but the place where the feet were to be worn was firm and stylish, and the design of the soles was the anti-slip type.
At first glance, Yuan Zhou knew that the shoes were of his size and could be worn.
“Thank you, I like it very much.” Yuan Zhou felt happy inwardly and said with a mild expression.
“That’s good. ” Yin ya nodded her head and heaved a sigh of relief inwardly.
Actually, it wasn’t a good idea to give Yuan Zhou shoes as a gift. But considering the nature of Yuan Zhou’s work, Yin ya decisively chose this gift that was good for Yuan Zhou.
Of course, if Jiang Changxi was the one who gave her the present today, she would definitely give her a belt.
A belt was really ambiguous and obvious. After all, whether one wanted you to put it on or take it off, there was too much room for manipulation.
Of course, with Jiang Changxi’s personality, she would tell Yuan Zhou smilingly that she liked to personally remove her belt on time.
However, it was too stimulating and unsuitable for both Yin ya and Yuan Zhou. Therefore, Yin ya gave them a pair of handmade boots that could match Yuan Zhou’s Han Chinese traditional clothing.
“These boots were custom-made for the size of your feet, so they should be very comfortable for you.” “That way, you won’t be too tired after standing for so long,” Yin ya introduced.
Yes, a pair of shoes could reduce the burden on the feet. It sounded magical, but it was true. Thinking about its price and the fact that it was made by a master, one should never underestimate the skills of the craftsmen. Moreover, the purpose of these custom-made shoes was to make your feet feel especially comfortable and without any burden.
This was exactly what Yin ya thought. After all, Yuan Zhou’s job was to cook while standing every day. Therefore, a pair of fitting shoes was very important.
“Yes.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then touched his shoes again.
“Remember to try it tonight. Let me know if you have any problems.” Yin ya warned.
“I will,” Yuan Zhou nodded his head earnestly.
“That’s good. You can make your shoes like this in the future. It’ll be very comfortable.” Yin ya turned the words in her mouth and then changed the way she put it.
“Alright, I’ll listen to you.” Yuan Zhou nodded the head with a clear and bright voice.
“What do you mean by ‘listen to me’? this is for the sake of your own foot.” Yin ya’s face turned red and she immediately retorted.
“Yes.” Yuan Zhou raised his head and looked at Yin ya, then nodded his head.
“Alright, I’ll be leaving then.” Being stared at by Yuan Zhou, Yin ya became a little embarrassed and said with a flustered tone.
“Be careful on your way back.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then prepared to open the partition carefully to see her off.
“No need to send me off. It’s still early. I’ll go back by myself. There are still people in your shop.” Seeing that, Yin ya waved her hands continuously.
“Alright,” he said. With a nod, Yuan Zhou stopped what he was doing and stood back. At the same time, he carefully moved the shoe to the previous position.
An inexplicable sense of loss and frustration flashed across Yin ya’s heart. But soon, Yuan Zhou said again,””I really like this gift, so I have a gift for you as well.”
“Ah?” Yin ya was stunned.
“Yes, a return gift. The ancients say that courtesy should be reciprocated, so I also have a return gift.” Yuan Zhou said with an indifferent expression.
Yin ya’s mood immediately got better. She asked curiously with the corners of her mouth curved up,”What return gift?”
“Red wine, a bottle of red wine.” Yuan Zhou didn’t beat around the bush this time and directly said.
“Red wine?” Yin ya looked at the kitchen behind Yuan Zhou with puzzlement and tried to find the red wine.
After all, as far as Yin ya knew, there were only bamboo liquor and beer in Yuan Zhou’s restaurant. But now, he was talking about red wine.
“Could it be that you’re selling red wine?” Yin ya asked in surprise.
“It’s not on sale yet. You’re the first one. ” Yuan Zhou said as a matter of fact.
“The first one?” Yin ya repeated it in a low voice and felt even sweeter in her heart.
“Yes, the first one.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head affirmatively.
“Thank you, then.” This time, Yin ya’s face turned red when she expressed her thanks. Apparently, she was very happy.
“But you can’t take it away.” Yuan Zhou said primly.
“Ah?” Yin ya looked at Yuan Zhou with puzzlement. What did he mean by giving it to her but not taking it away?
“I’ll keep the wine for you. You can come here to drink a cup every day.” Yuan Zhou said slowly and then continued after a pause,””You can come at any time.”
“Boom.” This sentence directly made Yin ya’s face turn red. Instantly, she became a little overwhelmed.
Yin ya could only stand up straight immediately and then put her hands together in front of her abdomen and pinched it uncomfortably.
“Will I disturb your business?” Yin ya pulled herself together and then asked.
“I won ‘t,” Yuan Zhou shook his head decisively.
“Alright, I’ll leave the wine with you. I don’t know how to preserve red wine anyway.” Yin ya lowered her head and answered in a low voice.
“Yes.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then continued asking,””Do you want to drink today?”
“No, no, it’s getting late, I have to go back.” Yin ya said almost immediately.
“Okay, let’s start tomorrow.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head readily.
“Yes.” Yin ya answered him with a light “hmm” and then walked out of the restaurant quickly.
“Ta ta ta.” Even when she walked to the door quickly, Yin ya could still feel Yuan Zhou’s gaze on her back.
That gaze wasn’t blazing, but it had a kind of faint burning temperature that made Yin ya couldn’t help but build up her heart again and again before she walked to the door steadily.
When they arrived at the door, somehow, Yin ya mustered up her courage and turned her head sideways, saying,”Thank you,” she said.
“You’re welcome, this is returning the favor. ” Yuan Zhou said.
“Yes, courtesy demands reciprocity.” This was the first time that Yin ya agreed with Yuan Zhou’s courteousness and replied softly.
Not until Yin ya walked out of the restaurant did Yuan Zhou quickly open the partition and walk to the door to see her off slowly.
Yin ya, who was being watched, could naturally feel it. Therefore, she didn’t walk very fast, just a little slower than when she came.
Taoxi road wasn’t long to begin with. In just a short while, they arrived at the intersection. Yin ya turned her head inadvertently and could still vaguely see Yuan Zhou standing at the door.
“When did this guy become so good at running away?” Yin ya couldn’t help stroking the hair near her ear. She seemed to be complaining, but her tone was sweet.
“She even knows to ask me to drink every day. I’m not Sister Jiang, I don’t like to drink.” Yin ya was curious about the taste of the red wine in her heart, but she kept saying sarcastic words as if she was comforting herself not to be nervous.
“But I’m really lucky to be the first one to drink his wine. Fortunately, Chen Wei didn’t know about it.” Yin ya revealed an expression of a little fox and then took a taxi back happily.
