Chapter 173 No one refuses to come, all are guests, regardless of the thickness(2/2)

Do you think this is okay? I won’t delay your business.”

So the old man's face turned redder and redder as he spoke, and he was obviously very ashamed.

The shopkeeper immediately said: "What does it mean? That's great."

You are here to give me a good appearance, and I thank you."

As he said this, the shopkeeper helped the uncle sit down at the table. Xiao Liu was very discerning and immediately went to get two ounces of wine.

I served the wine respectfully without losing any etiquette.

After that, the old man came to the old tavern to drink every day.

When there are a lot of people, I stand in the corner in front of the window and have a drink.

When there are few people around, sit down at the corner table, serve your own side dishes, and drink by yourself.

Later, everyone became more and more familiar with him. From shopkeeper Chen to the cooks in the kitchen, everyone knew this old man.

But this old man also has a stubborn temper.

When business was booming, even if a customer left and a seat became available, he would not sit down.

Xiaoliu tried to pull him away several times, but the old man insisted on standing in the corner, drinking by himself.

His answer was the same every time.

"Don't sit down anymore. I'll be leaving in a moment."

As time went by, everyone became more and more familiar with each other.

Xiaoliu once asked the old man: "Uncle, where is your home?"

The old man only said three words.

"On the horizon."

Xiaoliu thought the uncle was joking, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "You are always teasing me."

The old man turned around and said with a smile: "I told you that you can't find it or go there, but isn't it just the end of the world?"

Moreover, the old man also realized that he would leave on his own every time when the blood month came.

Even though the waiter persuaded him, there were no customers at this time, so there was no rush for a while.

But the old man still insisted on leaving.

"Since you have agreed on the time, you have to leave, otherwise you will cause trouble. This is the rule."

In this way, the old man and the old tavern seemed to have a tacit understanding.

The sun sets and the moon rises.

People in the old tavern, the more they look at the old man, the more familiar and friendly he becomes, just like family members.

One time, when the old man seemed unhappy when he was drinking, shopkeeper Chen secretly gave him an extra two cents of wine.

The old man didn't react when he drank.

But when it was time to pay the bill, the uncle said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, please pay me two more yuan for wine."

The shopkeeper smiled: "I accidentally shot too much. You can drink it. It doesn't count as money."

The old man shook his head: "What kind of hand do you have? It's a steelyard."

After saying that, the old man put back the two taels of wine flask, put a few copper coins on the table, and then left.

The shopkeeper shook his head, but when he picked up the jug, he found a copper coin underneath.

Such a stubborn little old man.

No matter how you look at it, it's a bit cute.

In the days to come, this old man became an unshakable regular patron of the old tavern. Seeing him, shopkeeper Chen felt at ease.

Once, because there were too many guests, the old man stood in the corner and was accidentally stepped on.

The man apologized quickly. They were both regular patrons of the old tavern and had good tempers. Even though the old man was wearing linen and patches, he was still polite.

"Sorry, I accidentally stepped on your foot."

But the old man in linen patch shook his hand and apologized himself.

"I'm sorry for delaying your arrival."

"It didn't hurt you, did it?"

At this time, the guest still felt a little sorry for him.

The old man smiled heartily.

"It's okay, I'm a rough guy and it doesn't hurt."

Shopkeeper Chen saw everything and felt more and more that this man was like an old friend from the old tavern.

Time passes slowly.

The old man is getting older and older, but he still comes every day regardless of rain or shine.

Shopkeeper Chen and he are getting closer and closer to each other.

With a look, two ounces of wine were served, and after finishing the drink, he left.

Speaking of this, shopkeeper Chen drank a glass of wine and was full of emotion. When Fang Xiu heard this, he was already in a trance.

He was young and had no such experience, so he became more emotional and moved when he heard it.

The shopkeeper's kindness makes everyone welcome, no matter how good or bad he is.

"What happened next?"

"Later..."
