Zhou Xuan sat in his own shop, pondering over the matters of Old Painting Pavilion and wondering where exactly the opportunity for tattoo lay hidden within this pavilion.
He was so engrossed in thought that he forgot about going out to eat at the restaurant.
Little Fuzi had already returned to the shop. After handling the shop's affairs all day, enduring a brutal beating for nothing and carrying Mu Hua back, he also gave Mu Hua a quick bath and changed his clothes.
His physical strength was greatly depleted, naturally he was starving and thinking of grabbing some food to fill his stomach.
But seeing Zhou Xuan deep in thought, he couldn't bear to disturb him. Since he happened to have a bit of a smell himself, he took two thermoses and went to fetch hot water from the boiler shop in the slanting alley,
One thermos of hot water to take a bath, the other to make hot tea for Five Brother and Young Master.
Just stepping out the door, he encountered a Waterman pushing a wheelbarrow.
