Chapter 2575: Braised Pork Buns
When he returned to the dining room with a basket of steamed buns, he said to Lu Xiaoxiao, "Eat quickly. You have to eat the steamed buns with marinated meat while they're hot, otherwise they'll lose their flavor."
After hearing what Ke Baiwei said, Lu Xiaoxiao nodded, then she picked up a bun with chopsticks, brought it to her mouth and took a bite.
“It’s so hot… so hot… whoosh….”
"Are you okay? Spit out the bun quickly." Seeing that Lu Xiaoxiao was scalded, Ke Baiwei hurried to Lu Xiaoxiao.
After hearing what Ke Baiwei said, Lu Xiaoxiao did not do as Ke Baiwei said. Instead, she opened her mouth and exhaled until the bun in her mouth was no longer hot. Then she ate the bun in her mouth.
"Drink some cold water quickly, or your mouth might get blisters from being burned."
"No, my mouth is fine."
"You said you could get burned by eating a bun. I don't know what to say."
"Uncle Ke, you can't blame me for burning my mouth. You should blame me."
"Why are you blaming me? Didn't I tell you that the buns were hot when you were eating them?"
"You did tell me that the buns were hot, but you didn't tell me that there was soup inside. I was scalded by the soup inside the buns just now."
"Don't all buns have soup in them? Do I need to tell you this?"
"Haha...Uncle Ke, it seems that you have some misunderstanding about steamed buns. I will go to the state-owned restaurant and buy two steamed buns for you. Then you can see what the steamed buns we usually eat are like."
"Forget it, I don't like the food made by state-owned restaurants, and I can't eat it, so don't waste your money.
I was wrong this time. Tomorrow I will cook you one of my best dishes as an apology. Is that okay with you?"
"Sure, that's great. I will definitely be there on time tomorrow."
"Eat the buns quickly. You have to be careful now. Don't get burned by the soup again."
"Got it, Uncle Ke, you eat too."
"good."
More than ten minutes later, Lu Xiaoxiao and Ke Baiwei finished eating a basket of buns. She took out a handkerchief to wipe her mouth, then asked Ke Baiwei, "Uncle Ke, are there any more buns in the kitchen?"
"Why, you haven't eaten yet?"
"I'm full. I just want to bring some back to Zhang Xu."
"Yes, I'll get it for you." After saying this, Ke Baiwei walked towards the kitchen.
After a while, he returned to the dining room with a basket of buns, and then he said to Lu Xiaoxiao: "Go to the cabinet over there and get a piece of oil paper."
"Uncle Ke, there's no need to wrap the buns in oil paper. I'll just carry them back like this. I'll bring the steamer back for you tomorrow when I come to eat."
"That's fine, but you have to take good care of the steamer. I hired a master to make it, and now that master is gone, if you break it, I won't be able to find someone to make a new one."
"Uncle Ke, don't worry. I'm here as long as the steamer is here, and I'm here if the steamer dies. So I will definitely protect the steamer well."
"What nonsense are you talking about, girl? No matter how important this steamer is, it is not as important as your life. Don't say such things again in the future."
"I understand. I will never say what I just said again. I just said those words to show my determination. I will not really do what I said."
"Okay, take the buns back quickly, otherwise Zhang Xu will eat cold buns."
"Then I'm leaving. See you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow."
