As the two men walked out, they were still greeted by a great number of customers.
And with the information that the young man along with Mr Fu was his son-in-law, this had been spread in little to no time at all.
But as the people greeted him, Ye Qian noticed that most of the people who greeted Uncle Fu were the ones who seemed older than 40 years.
As for the younger ones in their mid-20s or 30s, the people didn't really seem to know what was happening but still didn't look as curious.
Of course, in a few moments, the answer came to him on its own.
"Since I belong to an ancient medical family, there are many people who trust old medicines to want to get close to me."
Uncle Fu said while Ye Qian shook his hand with one of the elders.
"Ohh."
Ye Qian nodded understanding it clearly.
By the time the people went back to their tables, Aunt Qian also arrived with what appeared like a big bamboo box with about 5 layers stacked.
Ye Qian didn't know what to say about this.
The vessel didn't look any different from a dumpling steamer, for an average family.
And Ye Qian was sure that every single layer of the box was jam-packed with each snack.
"Here, this was the only box I could get, there was no bigger than this, there is enough for the girls and everyone."
Aunt Qin placed the big cylindrical bamboo tiffin on the table and it released a muffled bang.
"And if the little ones like it, and want more, tell them to meet me, or I am not planning to give more of these."
Aunt Qin grinned seeing Ye Qian stare at the box.
"Liang, are you trying to hook the girls into meeting you, that's not a good idea."
Uncle Fu shook his head, sighing.
"Hey hey, I know that they won't come here, so this is the only thing that I can think of."
Aunt Qin pouted at him in dissatisfaction before turning to Ye Qian.
"En, I will tell them."
Ye Qian could only agree with her words.
Meanwhile, Uncle Fu whispered to his wife.
"Liang, don't you think it would look weird if he were to carry this thing on his way back to the kindergarten and then back home?"
If Ye Qian were to carry such a big bamboo basket along with him then he was sure that he would be embarrassed a lot and with him not going directly to their house but instead to do some work and then to the kindergarten, before so many other people, it was not wrong to feel embarrassed.
These days, if someone were to get a call while being in a crowd and they didn't have a smartphone they would really feel embarrassed and here Ye Qian was going to carry such a big bamboo basket along with him, he could not think how much embarrassed he would feel.
"Then should I send someone to parcel it directly to their house?"
Aunt Qin gave it a thought and asked.
"Hmm."
Uncle Fu had just nodded when they heard Ye Qian.
"Ahh, should I leave now?"
Ye Qian asked, staring at the bamboo basket.
"Umm wait, should I send this directly home?"
Aunt Qin asked, seeing Ye Qian stare at the box, thinking that he would embarrass himself if he were to carry this along.
"No, it's fine, I can carry it back."
But to their amazement, Ye Qian shook his head and continued.
"Why let someone carry it if I am still going there."
Saying that he gave a bow to the couple before waving his hand and picking up the box.
"Take care you two, and don't remove the bands from your hands."
"But..."
Before Aunt Qin could say anything, Ye Qian had already walked a few steps and due to the chatter in the food court she knew that her voice would not reach him.
"Why did he say not to remove the bands given to us by Little Meng?"
She wondered while staring at the silver band that was on her left wrist.
A similar bang was also on the wrist of Uncle Fu.
These were the bands that they had found in the small cloth bag that Yuan Meng gave them while they were leaving Ye Qian's house.
They didn't quite understand why Yuan Meng had given it to them.
But since it was a gift from her and her husband, they didn't intend to dishonour them and wore them on their wrists.
Though they didn't quite recognize what material the bands were made of, they looked quite elegant and good, after wearing them, they didn't know that there were many things that were changing very minutely in their bodies.
With each day, their appetite was growing a bit more and even though right now because of the peculiar conditions of the food court they were not able to notice it, they were still feeling much much more energetic at the end of the day than usual.
But of course, these strange changes were not noticed by them since they were very slow and miniature to be noticed all of a sudden.
Seeing the shimmer on the golden band that still didn't seem to be made of gold yet gave a lustre, Aunt Qin's expression changed.
Meeting along with a few friends from a few days before, this band had become a main event for that day and everyone wanted to know where she had gotten it from.
But all she could say was that this was given by her foster daughter and her husband as a gift to both her and her husband.
But even then those ladies were not able to tell what it was really made of.
One had to know that there were quite a few high-class ladies in their group of friends and she knew it very well that they were just to let out some airs before her with the food court's affairs.
