章 576: Two Unwelcomed Customers

Gui Hua was enjoying her hot and spicy soup, remarking, "I have plenty of free time these days. My brother and sister-in-law returned from the city last night. They'll manage the shop while I'm away. I won't be the third wheel. I'll even pack some soup for them later."

As Li Hua passed by Gui Hua's seat, she responded, "Alright, come by in the afternoon. I'll tell you the story then, but don't complain if it's boring."

Gui Hua gave a thumbs-up, continuing to dip her fried dough sticks into the soup. The crispy dough, coated in the rich, spicy soup, was irresistible. Each bite was a burst of flavor, making her forget any sorrow. She couldn't help but continue eating, unable to stop herself.

By three in the afternoon, Sister Hua's Gourmet Shop was less busy. Gui Hua grabbed a few bottles of drinks and some snacks from her shop and went to find Li Hua. She distributed the drinks among the adults in the shop, keeping one for herself.
