Chapter 194 Xiao Long Bao
As evening fell, the sky grew darker and darker, and snowflakes began to fall again.
In the north, snow falls for half the year, and the people are used to it.
Lin Yuesha leaned against the door of the cabin, watching the snow. The snow scene in the mountains was naturally different from that in the town.
In the mountains and fields, only the withered trees were covered with a layer of white, monotonous and gloomy.
Smoke curled from the chimney above the cabin, and a moment later, the aroma of meat wafted from the kitchen.
"The big meat buns are ready, let's eat!"
Lin Yuesha opened the lid of the iron pot, picked out the steaming buns, and the steam in the kitchen made her expression blurry.
Xiao Qi stood at the doorway, quietly watching this scene, and even realized that the days the two of them spent together were not bad. It was peaceful, with delicious food at every meal, and no other troubles.
"Brother Yun, please put the table down first, and we'll eat in the kitchen."
Lin Yuesha turned slightly, took two eggs from a jar, and quickly made egg drop soup. Before serving, she garnished it with bright green scallions and a few drops of sesame oil.
To her surprise, the pockmarked man was a practical person. His kitchen was fully stocked with seasonings like oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar. However, because it was too cold when no one lived there, the seasonings had frozen into hard ice blocks the day the two of them arrived.
"good."
Xiao Qi put down the table, washed his hands with warm water, and sat down on one side of the table with Lin Yuesha.
Although she tried her best to shake off the images in her mind, they would always reappear at crucial moments. Lin Yuesha's expression was strange as she tried to figure out how to hide her feelings.
The best way is to keep your head down and eat in peace, without looking at his pockmarked face.
The atmosphere at the dinner table fell into an awkward silence again, and Xiao Qi was at a loss. What kind of impression had he left on the little girl? Was he a wolf in sheep's clothing, pretending to fatten up a little white rabbit first, and then eating it when the rabbit was at its fattest and most tender?
No, he's not that kind of person.
However, he couldn't bring himself to reveal the truth; Xiao Qi couldn't explain the erotic scenes upstairs.
"This steamed bun smells delicious!"
Xiao Qi took a bite, and inside the soft bun skin was a meatball, still with some meat juice. The meat juice soaked into the bun skin, and the aroma of meat filled the air. He wished he could swallow it whole.
"Yeah?"
Lin Yuesha was very happy to receive praise for her cooking skills. She smiled and said, "There's still one pot I haven't steamed yet. I'll eat it when I get hungry tonight."
Southern women are mostly petite and delicate, while those in the North are different.
Lin Yuesha pondered that it was still due to the climate. In the kind of weather in the border town, not long after eating, her stomach would be empty, and she would be eager to eat the next meal.
However, ordinary people only have two meals a day. If they are really hungry, they will heat up a steamed bun or a bean bun to fill their stomachs.
Lin Yuesha was at the age where she was growing, and although she ate a lot, she didn't gain weight; instead, she became a little thinner.
"You can steam a pot of small buns, the kind you can eat in one bite. People in the south like to eat xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), they're small and cute."
Xiao Qi swore that he had no other intentions; he simply had once traveled south and was thinking about the unique features of the south.
"Brother Yun, do you prefer xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) to baozi (big steamed buns)?"
Lin Yuesha trembled. The words "The big meat buns are so satisfying to eat, and the small ones are perfect for one bite" kept replaying in her mind.
"I can't say I prefer one thing more, but xiaolongbao has its own unique characteristics."
Xiao Qi continued to eat his buns and drink his soup, completely unaware of Lin Yuesha's sudden change in expression.
It's over, it's over!
Lin Yuesha looked down at her chest, feeling like crying. What exactly was that lecherous man with the pockmarked face trying to imply?
If she hadn't seen that erotic book, she wouldn't have imagined people like that. But now, once a thought enters her mind, it's like a wild horse that she can't control.
Not all erotic figures are the same. People like Xuanzhi Hexing are at the very bottom, looking like they have kidney deficiency. But the highest level of erotic figures is definitely the repressed eroticism!
Lin Yuesha was too tired to speak, and even the steamed bun in her hand didn't taste good anymore.
Why aren't you eating?
Xiao Qi sensed something was wrong, looked up, and found his little sister sitting there in a daze.
"I'm full."
Lin Yuesha leaned back in her chair, listless and not wanting to say a word.
Xiao Qi nodded, assuming it was just the woman's menstrual discomfort, and didn't think much of it. He told her to lie down inside, "I'll make the chicken soup."
Lin Yuesha had already prepared all the seasonings; all she had to do was put them into the pot in order.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Yun."
Lin Yuesha limped back to her room, and while washing up, she became extremely nervous, constantly worried that there were holes around her and that the pockmarked man had seen everything.
Hearing noises coming from the kitchen, she guessed that the pockmarked man was making chicken soup and moved very quickly.
Because she was in such a hurry, she twisted her ankle while washing her feet, and it hurt terribly.
Although I escaped from the barbarians and saved my life, I'm afraid I'll lose my innocence!
Lin Yuesha climbed onto the kang (a heated brick bed) and dozed off for a while.
She ate little for dinner, and by late at night she was hungry again.
As expected of a wild pheasant that roams the mountains, the deliciousness of its chicken soup is far superior to that of domesticated hens.
"Little girl, you're awake?"
Xiao Qi served Lin Yuesha a bowl of chicken soup and a cornbread.
He ate all the meat buns in one go, and since he didn't know how long to steam the remaining raw buns, he could only imitate Lin Yuesha's method and stick them into a cornbread.
"You can't stand it being too greasy, so I've removed the outer layer of oil."
Xiao Qi set up a small kang table and sat to one side, watching Lin Yuesha drink chicken soup.
"It's delicious!"
Lin Yuesha scooped up a spoonful, blew on it, and after putting it in her mouth, she squinted her eyes, looking as languid as a cat.
Realizing that her actions had been observed by the pockmarked man, Lin Yuesha felt uneasy again.
"Brother Yun, is there something on my face?"
Lin Yuesha touched her face. Sigh, these days it's safer to be a little ugly, like having a pockmarked face. It takes a lot of scheming to fool a young girl.
If he were as good-looking as his elder brother, even if he were a bit dull, he would easily attract a few unwanted romantic advances.
Ultimately, it all comes down to looks.
"No."
Xiao Qi had no idea what his little sister was thinking. Lin Yuesha always made the food taste delicious and fragrant when she ate and drank soup, and he couldn't help but eat more than he should.
"so?"
Lin Yuesha was horrified. Could she interpret this as the pockmarked man lusting after her body?
Oh my god!
This must be a demon's lair. She's just escaped this time because of her period; if her period had ended...
No, she had to find a way to escape before that.
Lin Yuesha gave a smile that looked more like a grimace, deciding to talk less with the pockmarked face and focus on eating first.
Being hungry, even if you want to escape, you are powerless to do so.
So, how can you run?
Lin Yuesha moved her spoon, a preliminary idea forming in her mind. To get down the mountain, she had to trick the pockmarked man into taking her down; only then could she find an opportunity.
