Do you also want to adopt Doro?

In Doro's eyes, the waitress was a young adult, just turned eighteen. Although she wasn't particularly pretty, with freckles all over her face, she actually looked kinder.

Doro had a very good first impression of the young lady.

But in Huang Musong's view,

The other party is a pitiful girl with a disability but a strong will!

His unsteady gait confirmed his suspicions; a limp was definitely not the behavior of a normal person.

He is clearly sick.

I can't even walk steadily.

Is she really going to work at a restaurant?

Besides "Disabled but Determined," Huang Musong couldn't think of a more fitting word to describe the other person.

She moved to the dining table with a sweet smile...

Under the watchful eyes of the man and the beast, the young waitress respectfully presented the menu, her 45-degree bow both precise and incredibly difficult.

"gentlemen?"

"Excuse me, you people...?"

Because they are not yet proficient in customer service techniques

The freckled girl lowered her head in embarrassment.

She was unsure whether she should treat Doraemon as a customer, which is why she was unsure how to phrase her next words.

Doro had no concept of "disability".

It just felt that the human girl's smile was very friendly!

A friendly gaze, just like...

It was the same when I first met people.

The other person's kindness and shyness greatly pleased Doraemon.

It immediately sat up straight, like a disciplined primary school student, and raised its little paw to point to the set meal on the menu.

Chicken leg rice.

"One serving, it's free! I want to eat it."

While speaking, he held up a snack gift bag. Although he didn't say it aloud, his actions meant that he was giving the snacks to the other person as a gift.

Ah!

It can't really be considered a gift.

After all, the kind proprietress had promised to treat me to chicken leg rice again.

Equivalent snacks are just my kind offer~

Doro thought to himself.

Upon hearing that the adorable little guy wanted a free meal, the freckled girl panicked, her eyes darting around nervously. Her trembling arms convulsed, and she bit her lip, stealing glances at Huang Musong with a mixture of restraint and embarrassment.

What should I do...?

Are he and his pet starving?

However, I am also very poor, and it was not easy for me to find a job.

If you treat them to food and anger the landlady, you'll be in big trouble if you get fired.

In just a few seconds, the freckled girl pondered to herself, appearing rather dim-witted due to her somewhat chaotic thought process.

Upon seeing this, Huang Musong quickly scanned the code and quietly made the payment.

Then,

Show the other party the mobile phone information page showing successful payment.

He deliberately positioned himself above Doro's head, blocking its blind spot.

At the same time, give a shushing signal...

"Shhh"!

Huang Musong hopes the girl with freckles can understand.

Fortunately, she wasn't stupid; her lack of logic stemmed from not having gone to school.

I vaguely understood what the young man meant.

The freckled girl quickly smiled and agreed to Doraemon, saying, "Okay! A free chicken leg rice. Is there anything else you'd like to order?"

If we could order anything else...

Doro first touched the person's stomach.

Then, very seriously, he added, "Let's also buy a chicken leg rice."

"Hey! You need to eat on time too, it's good for your health." Dorothy turned to look at the person and took out the twenty dollars that Dorothy had earned.

It's inconvenient to carry around individual bills.

Dorothy took a whole hundred-dollar bill with her when she went on her trip.

Leave the change with Doraemon so he can keep it for you.

Although it might be impolite to use money deposited by a good friend to buy someone a meal,

Dorothy doesn't think Dorothy will mind!

not to mention,

Before Dorothy returns from her travels,

Doro is confident that he can earn back the money he has spent and pay it back.

Huang Musong understood Duoluo's little thoughts and the little guy's good intentions, so he accepted it without hesitation.

"Another chicken leg rice, please."

He didn't spoil Doraemon's fun and ordered food from the freckled girl.

call out……

The freckled girl finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She turned around and walked slowly and shakily toward the kitchen.

This time, even the slow-witted Doraemon noticed that the waitress seemed to be disabled.

How pitiful!

Doro couldn't help but feel sorry for the other person.

They felt sympathy but were unsure what to do next.

It sat on the chair, fidgeting slightly, looking a little anxious.

Meanwhile, in the kitchen...

The kind-hearted but short-tempered proprietress couldn't help but scold the freckled girl a couple of times.

With a voice as loud as a megaphone,

The proprietress shouted in a voice louder than the range hood, "How can you give customers free rice bowls? You've only been working here for three days, and you already think you're the boss? Go collect your money."

Having not witnessed what just happened, the proprietress had clearly misunderstood.

If she knew that Huang Musong had brought Duoluo to patronize the store again,

There's no need to think about it at all.

The proprietress will always offer to treat us!

As for the freckled girl who was misunderstood at this moment, she pursed her lips and timidly lowered her head to admit her mistake.

I didn't dare to explain anything.

She simply hummed in agreement and swallowed her grievances before leaving the kitchen.

The other party's strange reaction made the proprietress suddenly realize something...

Ouch?

Could it be that handsome young man has brought his pet to visit again?

That's definitely not the right thing to do!

Remembering Huang Musong and Duoluo, the proprietress hurried to the front hall and indeed spotted them from a corner.

I'm just too busy.

The proprietress exchanged a few polite words and then went back to the kitchen to get busy.

...

One hour later.

Once you get past mealtimes, it's a quieter period.

After finishing his meal, Huang Musong deliberately didn't take Duoluo back to the basement immediately.

Be patient and wait until the store is less busy.

He planned to chat with the proprietress for a while and personally give her some snacks before leaving.

At this moment, at the dining table where it doesn't get in the way, Doro and the freckled girl are playing a high-five game called "You Clap Once, I Clap Once" in a very harmonious way.

Meanwhile, Huang Musong was chatting with the proprietress at the counter...

After some communication

Huang Musong learned that the freckled girl was a particularly unfortunate person.

The girl from the south lost her father to a job abroad who never returned. Her mother reported him missing and remarried shortly after the divorce proceedings ended. Suffering from severe somatization symptoms, she couldn't find work in the relatively unfavorable environment of the south.

I've heard that the treatment is better in the north, especially in the capital. At least people won't starve to death there.

The freckled girl came here alone to make a living.

Unfortunately, few people are willing to hire employees who have illnesses.

Until a few days ago, a job posting at the small restaurant drew her in.

The kind-hearted proprietress hired him without hesitation!

Just started,

Huang Musong found it hard to believe that the freckled girl's situation could be so dire.

But when I saw a picture of a diary app on the landlady's phone...

He was stunned.

{On [date], I haven't been able to find work lately, so I'm packing socks in the neighborhood for five cents a pair. I only earn thirty yuan a day, and sometimes there's no work at all.}

{On [date], my back started hurting yesterday. The doctor at the small clinic suspected gallstones, saying it was caused by not eating breakfast. But I really wanted to say, I don't have money for breakfast.}

{On [date], three months ago, I turned 17. I feel my somatization is getting worse. I'm working washing dishes; it's exhausting, and I might have a herniated disc.}

{On [date], I finally turned 18. I've heard the environment in the North is better; you can at least make a living doing any job. I want to go to the capital, but train tickets are expensive, and saving money will take time. I don't know if I'll live to see that day.}

The blurry image quality clearly indicates it was taken secretly.

Considering the freckled girl's physical condition, it does seem like she has an illness.

This left Huang Musong with no choice but to believe it...

But believe it or not, it doesn't matter.

What can I do to help the other person?

The best he could do was to show some compassion from the bottom of his heart.

With a soft sigh, Huang Musong watched the harmonious scene of Duoluo and the freckled girl clapping hands, and just as he put his hand in his pocket, he happened to touch a wad of cash.

This money was taken from Dorothy by Doraemon and used to buy food.

He found it troublesome to spend cash, so he secretly pocketed the change and paid with WeChat.

Now, upon touching them again, Huang Musong immediately handed them to the proprietress.

"Could you please ask that girl to have some fruit for me?"

"Um...no, I'm asking on behalf of my pet. Could you please buy her some oranges?"

Huang Musong lowered his voice and said.

Twenty-odd yuan,

There's not much good food to eat.

But for Doraemon, this was the first pot of gold that he and Dorothy truly earned through their own abilities.

Huang Musong believes that

Whether it was Doraemon or Dorothy who learned the truth about the freckled girl,

Kind-hearted creatures would surely be willing to help each other!

It wasn't much money, but it was the thought that counted, and the proprietress quietly accepted it on her behalf.

After finishing the last thing for today,

Huang Musong forced a gentle smile, took Doro's little hand, and said goodbye to the freckled girl. The two, human and beast, strolled slowly under the streetlights toward the basement.
