The visitor's hands clutched several thick iron chains.

On the other end of the chain, there was a dog tied to it.

These dogs, one by one, are powerfully built and have glossy fur. At a glance, you can tell that their owners take good care of them.

There, the shopkeeper scurried to the man's vicinity, wary of those dogs and too afraid to approach.

From a distance, with a smile, he greets: "Sir, what can I get you?"

At this moment, the dishes on Yang Ruqing's table began to arrive one after another, with a rich aroma wafting over.

Those few dogs couldn't resist the temptation and started to fidget, jumping and prancing in the man's hands.

The chains rattled loudly, forcing the man to pull hard on them to keep the dogs from running out.

"Shopkeeper, bring me your best dish!" he bellowed.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate! ?

"Yes, yes, yes!" The shopkeeper readily agreed.

Then the fat man added, "By the way, get another bowl of longevity noodles. Today is my pet cat Wan Cai's second birthday, I have to celebrate it well!"

He patted the head of one of the large dogs, and said proudly.

The shopkeeper also glanced at the big dog and nodded again: "Good, good, please sit down, sir, I'll go prepare!"

Yang Ruqing's side of the table, Xiao Ya Xue couldn't help but laugh.

"It's common to see people with their dogs, but it's the first time I've seen someone bring a dog to a tavern for a birthday celebration this publicly!" she said.

Yang Ruqing curled her lips: “That fat man looks like a wastrel, good for nothing.”

Xiao Yaxue nodded, "I guess there's some money at home, so he's making a big fuss about it."

Yang Ruqing smiled and shook her head.

“Let's stick to our own affairs and not bother with others’.”

He is wealthy, spoils his dog, and has nothing to do with them.

Here at the table, everyone picked up their chopsticks and got ready to eat.

Today I was on the road almost all day, eating just some dry rations along the way. I couldn't find a town where I could restock.

By nightfall, everyone was famished.

>

Everyone picked up their chopsticks and started eating. Yang Ruqing ate while still thinking about Zhuoyun in the carriage. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated! ?

They went into the inn to eat, while Zuiyun stayed in the carriage to watch their luggage.

I'll wait until it's finished eating, then I'll bring it a roasted chicken separately. I can't let it starve.

Here, at this table, we're having a feast. Over there, at the next table, Fatso and his pack of dogs are also making quite a scene.

The chains rattled, and the dogs stood on the ground or sat on stools.

>

Waving their tails, some went to the table and others to the fat man's face.

All in all, the reunion dinner was a blast! The atmosphere was super lively and fun.

Woof!

Suddenly, a dog barked twice.

Yang Ruqing didn't take it to heart, continuing to nibble on the chicken wings in her hand.

"Woof woof, de'er woof!"

The dog barked louder, its voice reaching right up to Yang Ruohong.

Yang Ruqing only then realized that it was eyeing the chicken wings in her hand.

I glanced at the chicken wings in my hand, then at the dog's expectant eyes and its tongue constantly licking its chops.

Yang Ruqing was hesitating whether or not to give the chicken wings to it.

Just then, the fat man spoke.

"Wangcai, this is where you went wrong, huh!"

“Although you like to nibble on chicken wings and look at them with such sincerity, those chicken wings weren't bought with our money, so they don't belong to us.”

"They were bought with someone else's money, so they belong to someone else. It's not our place to covet other people's things!"

Woof!

>

　　In response to Fatty, Wangcai barked twice and wagged its body, looking at Yang Ruohua's chicken wings with a pitiful expression.

The fat man's face fell.

"Good fortune to you! I've already prepared a grand feast for you, the chef in the backyard is cooking it up right now."

"If you keep eyeing other people's chicken wings like that, disrespecting me, I'll have to punish you!"

The dog, called Wangcai, obviously doesn't have a very high IQ.

The fat man had talked to it for so long, but it still wouldn't look away.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Staring longingly at Yang Ruqing's chicken wings in her hand, he was so eager that he seemed ready to pounce.

"Fine, have it. Don't stare at me like that, you're making me nervous."

Yang Ruoqing smiled and threw the chicken wings over.

"No, no," the fat man waved his hands busily. "Young Master doesn't lack money..."

Before the words could even settle, Wong Choi leaped into the air and caught the chicken wing that was thrown to him.

Then it lay back on the ground, tilting its head and gnawing with relish. Satisfied hums occasionally escaped its mouth.

The fat man's face immediately flushed red. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Fortune, why can't you give me some support!"

He lowered his voice, looking at Wong Chai with utter disbelief.

Here, Yang Ruqing said: "People take food as their heaven, let alone a dog? You have such high demands on it, that's being too harsh."

The fat man looked up at Yang Ruqing and smiled.

"Hehehe, makes sense!"

At this point, the dishes for Fatty and his group were also served.

Wow, a whole duck from the market, a whole chicken, and a goose with its skin peeled... Please note: I only translated the content within the <<< >>>tags and left the HTML tags untouched.

“Come, come, everyone, sit down and let’s celebrate Wangcai’s birthday together!”

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate! ?

The fat man carried all of his dogs onto the stools and stood up himself, acting as if he were serving them their meals.

Give this dog chicken legs, and give that dog duck necks.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ?

“Eat slowly, don’t choke, everyone has a share…”

He patiently watched from the sidelines, occasionally giving some instructions.

The scene stunned everyone in the hall, including Yang Ruqing.

This kid is really good to these dogs.

I wonder if he can serve his own parents with the same care and devotion.

Yang Ruqing thought to herself.

At this point, a customer at the other table couldn't help but raise a question.

“This is a restaurant where people come to eat. The bowls, chopsticks and plates are all prepared for people.”

"To have you eating with these pack of dogs, it's disgusting. Next time, we won't dare come to this restaurant again. These chopsticks and bowls have all been licked by dogs!"

Then the customer shouted.

>

The fat man heard this and became agitated.

"Young master, I spent money to reserve this table of food and naturally the bowls and chopsticks are included."

“I can afford the money, the shopkeeper didn't even hesitate. What are you, a poor beggar, sticking your nose in?” The fat man retorted without hesitation.

That customer, emboldened by his large group and having had several rounds of drinks, became increasingly belligerent.

“A dog is a dog, an animal is an animal. Even if a dog sits on a chair and pretends to be human, it's still just a dog!”

This statement is loaded with veiled implications...

The fat man was enraged. His eyes, squeezed shut by his fatty flesh, blazed with fury.

“You poor bastard, you're just jealous that I'm richer than you. Even my dog lives a better life than you!”

“Come on, you want to overturn this young master's table? Come on, hit me! I can kill you with money!”
