Although Uncle Chen's restaurant was remote, he had quite a number of customers. They were his old acquaintances and foodies of Xing Yin County.
People had to make appointments before coming, or they could be turned away. After all, this was a hobby for Uncle Chen, and he didn't really need customers. He had a rule, which was only to receive two tables of guests per meal, so only four tables per day.
On this day, another group of regulars came to Uncle Chen's place.
Uncle Chen grumbled, "You old farts, I already told you I would only serve four tables per day. If you want to come, you have to make an appointment. But you come daily without making an appointment and then refuse to leave until I cook for you. Do I owe you people or something?"
Yuan Hongjun said, "Chen Dafu, since you only serve four tables a day, we know you're very free. We came to give you a chance to exercise your arms. You should thank us!"
