Steamed buns actually taste best when eaten dry, with a light sweet aftertaste.
Li Jinfeng ate the steamed buns and swallowed them with warm water.
When the waiter brought the pickled radish, she started eating it.
She almost finished the whole plate of pickled radish by herself.
Several men took a bite of the food with chopsticks, but their teeth ached from the sourness and they refused to touch it again.
"Comrade Li, you like sour food so much, you might be pregnant with a son. When my wife was pregnant, she ate sauerkraut and pickled bamboo shoots as if they were her lifeblood, just like you." Chen Jianshe, a worker who was helping Li Jinfeng, spoke to her.
Li Jinfeng chuckled after hearing this, "That's not true. I used to be able to eat sour food. This radish is far from being as sour as that!"
Pickled fish and stir-fried pork with pickled beans are Li Jinfeng’s favorites.
When no one is around, she drinks several boxes of yogurt at a time.
When cooking, if you are alone, you will also add some vinegar.
She was from the south in her previous life, and she loved vinegar and spicy food.
She was just afraid that eating spicy food during pregnancy would be bad for the fetus, so she forced herself to eat less spicy food.
"Okay, I thought too much!" Chen Jianshe looked embarrassed and his face was red.
Everyone laughed and forgot about the matter.
Just at this moment, the waiter brought the dishes.
A plate of fried pork belly with a nice color, a plate of pickled fish with soup that is cooked till it turns white, and a few side dishes.
As soon as the dishes were served, the air was filled with rich aroma.
"Everyone, hurry up and eat, and try to get home before dark to be with your wives, children, and the elderly at home!" Lu Jianguo said.
Everyone was not polite and ate whatever they wanted.
As expected, Li Jinfeng fell in love with the pickled cabbage in the pickled fish. She didn't eat much of the fish until Lu Jianguo picked some for her.
After dinner, everyone packed up their things and prepared to leave.
Li Jinfeng followed Lu Jianguo and walked all the way to Lu's house.
By the time we arrived at the Lu family, it was almost dark.
When Sister E came out to lock the gate, she saw Li Jinfeng and Lu Jianguo, and almost thought she was dazzled and kept rubbing her eyes.
It was only when Lu Jianguo and Li Jinfeng called her that she realized that the two of them had really returned.
"Jianguo, Jinfeng, why are you back?" Sister E looked surprised.
Li Jinfeng won’t talk about it, but didn’t Lu Jianguo say that he didn’t even know when he would come back?
"It's a long story. Sister E, is grandpa asleep?" Lu Jianguo asked.
"Not yet, the old man is still reading a book now!" Sister E said.
"It's so late, are you still watching?"
Although the Lu family installed electric lights, the incandescent lamps of that era were really dim and not much brighter than kerosene lamps.
Mr. Lu originally had a desk lamp, but unfortunately, it was broken by someone a few years ago.
"Grandpa said he couldn't sleep if he didn't have anything to do and didn't read." Sister E said.
In fact, Sister E really hopes that Li Jinfeng will come back to live with her. When she was there, the old man was busy every day.
I consume a lot of energy during the day, so I go to bed early at night.
"Let's go see grandpa first." Li Jinfeng sighed.
In fact, she felt quite guilty. Although they lived in the same city, she didn't come to visit Mr. Lu often.
If the weather hadn't been so hot, she would have stayed here.
The main reason is that she has to turn on the electric fan at night. The fan is not as good as the plug-in one and the noise is a bit loud, so it is not as convenient for living alone.
