Tang Wanxing pointed at the colorful fruit cakes in the window and looked at her with sparkling eyes.
"Sister, this cake looks like the little cake Mom and Dad bought us. It has strawberries, mangoes, grapes, and blueberries on it..."
As she spoke, she couldn't help licking her lips and swallowing her saliva.
Tang Wanyun took a quick look and quickly looked away, saying stiffly, "All cakes look like this. There's nothing special about them."
Tang Wanxing lowered her head and counted on her fingers for two full minutes before finally figuring out the account.
"Sister, this cake costs 300 points. If I don't buy the iced Coke, I can save 150 points. And if I eat less over the next few days, I can save another 150 points. That adds up to exactly 300 points!"
Tang Wanyun looked at her with amusement. It was really difficult for her to do addition and subtraction of three-digit numbers. Unexpectedly, she got it right.
After waiting for a long time for her sister to nod, Tang Wanxing walked over, put her arms around her waist, and acted coquettishly:
"Sister, today is your birthday, and you want a small cake. Just agree to buy it for you, okay?
I'll only eat two Bear Biscuits a day this week and won't waste any points."
In fact, Tang Wanyun had already softened her heart, and was worried that speaking would expose her vulnerable side, so she pretended to be indifferent.
"Are you sure you only want the fruitcake? Don't you want to eat the grilled cold noodles and rice rolls?"
Tang Wanxing raised her head and blurted out: "I want to!"
After she finished speaking, she frowned slightly, "But, we need to save points, so we can't buy unnecessary things."
My sister often says this sentence, and it has been deeply engraved in her mind.
After Tang Wanyun brought her sister and joined Cao Tianshun's team, they often went out to look for gold, silver and jewelry to earn points.
The two of them had a certain amount of savings in their cards, but in recent times, there have been fewer and fewer gold, silver and jewelry around the base. For the sake of their future, Tang Wanyun still maintained the principle of spending as little as possible and was determined not to squander.
She raised her hand, rubbed her sister's head, and said confidently: "Today is my birthday, I have the final say."
Tang Wanxing stood up straight, her eyes constantly glancing outside, "Sister, can we have hot pot?"
Tang Wanyun pinched her face and refused decisively: "No."
A hotpot meal costs thousands of points. In comparison, rice rolls and grilled cold noodles are just a drop in the bucket.
She was generous for once today, but she was still reluctant to spend her big points. Just to have lunch, spending a few small points was enough to make her feel painful.
Tang Wanxing has a childish temper, but most of the time she is very sensible and will not throw a tantrum on the ground just to buy something.
She carefully took out the fruit cake and paid 300 points with her own card.
Then I went to the rice noodle roll shop next door and bought a rice noodle roll with egg and lean meat.
The smart self-service machine not only allows you to choose from a variety of packages, but also allows you to add notes based on your personal taste.
For example, if Tang Wanxing can't eat spicy food, she can add the "no spicy" option at the end of the order.
When buying grilled cold noodles, Tang Wanyun didn't like coriander, so she simply clicked the note "No coriander".
Rice noodle roll shops and cold noodle shops only have one window for picking up food, which is blocked by a partition so customers cannot see what is inside.
After placing the order, the food will be served in about two minutes.
The baffle slowly rose, and a pink robotic arm extended from the window. Its palm held a tray with the customer's purchased food on it. A gentle female voice followed:
"Please enjoy your meal, sir."
Tang Wanxing took the double-sided and double-egg grilled cold noodles, bent down slightly, and said thank you sweetly.
The dining area on the second floor is just opposite the hot pot restaurant. In addition to serving food to the guests, Xiao Hotpot also pays special attention to the situation in the dining area.
I saw two girls buying fruit cakes. There was nothing else to do in the store, so the hot pot moved over very smoothly.
When he got closer, he caught the word "birthday" in the guest's conversation. Xiao Hotpot's eyes became round, as if a specific program had been activated.
It raised its robotic arm, opened a black box at the bottom of its body, and took out a colorful banner from it.
After unfolding it, there were several large characters written on it:
Happy Birthday to you from Shuguang Supermarket!
There is also a cute cake pattern next to it, which is beautiful and exquisite.
Tang Wanxing clapped her hands lightly, smiling broadly, "Happy birthday, sister!"
She started a tune and was about to sing Happy Birthday when she saw a little robot circling around their table, waving a banner in its hands and singing cheerfully:
"Happy birthday to you~Happy birthday to you~Happy birthday to you~~Happy birthday to you~"
A perfect atmosphere group.
Xiaobao, who was in the storage area, looked up at the bustling dining area and had only one feeling in his heart: this new colleague seemed a little bit...
When a guest has a birthday, it seems like they are well prepared and even bring props with them.
Tang Wanxing stared at the hot pot, her mouth almost reaching the back of her head.
"Sister, make a wish, make a wish!"
Tang Wanyun was not socially anxious, but when she was stared at by more than a dozen pairs of eyes, her cheeks turned red.
It's just a birthday, there's no need to make such a big fuss.
At her sister's urging, she had no choice but to comply, clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and silently made three wishes:
First, I hope my sister is healthy, safe and happy forever.
Second, I hope to earn more points in the future so I never have to go hungry again.
Third, she hopes that the end of the world will pass quickly so that she and her sister can return to normal life.
Tang Wanyun opened her eyes and a beautiful rose appeared before her.
Little Hotpot blinked his big blue eyes, looking sincere: "Dear, this rose is for you. I wish you peace and success, and eternal youth~"
Tang Wanyun was just blushing just now, but now she felt her face and neck were burning.
In her lifetime, she was actually seduced by a robot!
Tang Wanyun took the little rose with both hands, her eyes full of joy. It had been a long time since she laughed so heartily as today.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome."
The small hot pot is small in size, but that doesn’t stop it from carrying some funny little gadgets.
It is a "passionate" service robot. It was designed this way in the factory. For example, when it delivers a rose, the backend will automatically restock it.
…
It was only later that Jiang He heard from Xiaobao that the guest had celebrated his birthday on the second floor.
The new robot employees are a little too cute and have a strong sense of service.
Jiang He wanted to take it home to rest on the first day, but Xiao Hotpot insisted that the hot pot restaurant was its home and it would quietly replenish its energy in the kitchen at night without consuming supermarket points.
This type of robot is integrated into the store and has its own energy charging equipment in the back kitchen. Unlike the little bears, they don’t need to buy energy stones to eat.
