Chapter 455: Fresh Shrimp and Crab Roe Xiaolongbao
Yun Qimu finally crawled out of the warm bed under the disappointed look of his younger brother.
After the Spring Festival event, the weather in Earth Town began to gradually warm up, and the thick snow outside began to melt. Only small snowflakes fell from the sky. The heavy snowfall, similar to the one that turned the man standing outside into a snowman in less than ten minutes, finally stopped.
Yun Qimu put on a thin mint green cotton jacket that was not too bulky, a neat pair of white overalls, and a pair of warm boots as he walked out of the house.
She smiled at Yun Xiaoyu, who glared at her but still worked hard to serve her dumplings, and asked cheerfully, "What's the filling in today's dumplings?"
"It's stuffed with fresh shrimp and crab roe." Yun Xiaoyu answered while looking at the steaming dumplings in the small steamer, which made her mouth water.
This soup dumpling is very popular today. He bought three baskets from Mrs. Song Wu in the name of his sister. Otherwise, he with his small arms and legs would not be able to compete with those clamoring adults.
When Yun Xiaoyu thought of the grand scene she saw inside and outside the building in the morning, from looting to fighting in the Roman Colosseum, she couldn't help but tremble. Those adults were too crazy.
It was horrible to see them fighting ferociously for a basket of dumplings.
But today's dumplings stuffed with shrimp and crab roe are really delicious, so it doesn't seem surprising that the adults are fighting.
Yun Qimu's eyes lit up after he picked one up and put it in his mouth.
The fresh aroma of crab roe and the deliciousness of shrimp are perfectly blended. When you take a bite, the delicious juice flows out and the fragrance instantly fills your mouth.
This taste is amazing!
As she ate with an intoxicated look on her face, she said to Yun Xiaoyu, "Let's go to the beach today and catch some more crabs and shrimps and ask Mrs. Song Wu to make us a few more steamed dumplings."
Yun Xiaoyu's dark eyes lit up, and then she nodded solemnly like a chick pecking at rice, "Okay."
Yun Qimu finished a basket of steamed dumplings in no time. After finishing them, she took out the mullet dumplings she had stockpiled and ate another bowl with a look of relish on her face.
However, after eating the shrimp and crab roe dumplings, the mullet dumplings that she particularly liked no longer tasted as good.
Thinking of this, Yun Qimu's laziness disappeared, and he walked out with Yun Xiaoyu full of energy.
As they walked, they asked, "By the way, what did Mr. Tao say about Dad? How long will the treatment take today?"
After more than ten days, Mr. Yun's condition has not improved. The two siblings of the Yun family have returned to their normal state of mind after their initial expectations.
Every morning, Yun Xiaoyu would send Yun Dad to the pharmacy workshop on time, just like sending her child to school. Then Tao Hongjing would arrange the day's treatment, and Yun Xiaoyu would pick Yun Dad up on time.
They set off for the beach today. They had to check the treatment arrangements at Yun's father's side to avoid staying too long and missing the time.
Speaking of this, Yun Xiaoyu puffed out her chest, her sense of responsibility immediately rising. She answered seriously, "Mr. Tao said that Dad needs to recuperate in the sanatorium and undergo acupuncture treatment today, and it will probably be finished by three in the afternoon. I can ask Gou Wa to bring Dad a lunch at noon, and we just need to be back before three in the afternoon."
Yun Qimu listened to his logical words and felt satisfied. "Well, let's do it."
After the brother and sister arranged everything for Yun's father, they walked out of their yard excitedly.
The townspeople outside who had already heard the news about the ocean were also busy making preparations.
The drugstore workshop and weapons and equipment store were packed with townspeople rushing to buy things. Even Cen Lei, who had just opened yesterday, was doing brisk business, especially the magic talismans he drew, which were selling very well.
Cen Lei was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He even hired a kid to help him sell the goods, and he started drawing talismans on the spot.
Some people who saw this wanted to learn from him, but after leaning over to watch for a long time, they couldn't figure out anything and almost became dazzled.
In the end, they could only retract their necks in embarrassment.
No wonder they dare to draw talismans in public, it turns out they are not afraid that others will learn it.
In addition to him, Tang Wenwei also asked Tang Liangjun to set up a stall nearby to take advantage of the popularity and do fortune-telling. Business was better than usual.
Yu Lixiu was also busy, holding a few large leaves of the Danmu fruit tree in his hand and carving formations on them.
Her formations were no worse than Cen Lei's talismans, especially the concealment formations, which were particularly popular with large teams. Unfortunately, her formation construction wasn't as fast as Cen Lei's talismans, so she could only make a little money.
Seeing that Cen Lei's talismans were sold out and he was packing up his stall to follow the townspeople to the beach to join in the fun, Tang Wenwei rolled his eyes and followed suit, packing up his stall and planning to go and take a look.
After all, the fortune-telling business is not very good, and his nephew in the same industry is trying to steal his business, so he can earn even less. So he has to find another way to earn spirit coins, otherwise he won't be able to support his young wife, and instead his young wife will have to support him. That would be so embarrassing and would damage his image as a man.
"It is said that the sea is on the other side of the snow-capped mountains. Can the four of us go there?" Before setting off, Cen Lei couldn't help but look worriedly at the thin bodies of the uncle and nephew of the Wen family, and then at Yu Lixiu's slender figure. It seemed that he was the only one who could fight.
Cen Lei, who was timid to begin with, was afraid and began to feel like retreating.
Tang Wenwei looked at him speechlessly, "You were planning to go alone just now, but now there are four of us, what are you afraid of?"
Cen Lei scratched his head and said shyly, "I didn't think about it just now. I was just busy joining in the fun."
Tang Wenwei was speechless again, then snorted, "So many people are going today, can't we just join any team and go together?"
As he said this, he smacked his lips again and felt a little sorry. His nephew's good brother had taken his men back to fight his father, leaving only his nephew who couldn't fight here. Otherwise, they could have joined his nephew's brother's team. At least there were acquaintances around, and it would have been easier to get along with them.
"Okay, that's fine. I'll listen to you." Hua Mingfei was gone, and Cen Lei didn't have any ideas, so he subconsciously followed Tang Wenwei's instructions.
Tang Wenwei raised his lips in satisfaction, then walked to the village entrance with his young wife, nephew and the tall and timid Cen Lei, sticking his head out to look around, trying to find a reliable team with whom they could get some help.
"Nephew, please don't be idle. Please help us take a look. You have been in the village longer than us. You must know which team is reliable better than me."
Tang Liangjun, who was named, felt like crying. His uncle was really too bold. Just four of them, who were weak in combat, wanted to go to the sea. Not to mention the sea, he even felt that the snow-capped mountains blocking the way were difficult enough.
