Zhu Qinghao was skeptical, so she turned her head and asked a question.
"They really booked it?"
It wasn't that she thought they would be stingy, but she vaguely remembered that there didn't seem to be any particularly suitable ingredients for making dumplings at the cowshed, since she had been delivering the vegetables there recently.
“It’s really wrapped up, wrapped with dried bean sprouts, and there’s even a lot more meat inside. It looks quite delicious, so you really don’t need to wrap any more here.”
This time, Zhu Qinghao believed it, but then she became suspicious of something else, frowning and muttering to herself:
"Using dried bean sprouts to make dumplings? How can that taste good?"
Zhu Qi'an smiled too.
"I don't know, this is the first time I've seen dumplings like this. But the filling smells really good when it's being stir-fried. I'll try them and see, maybe there will be some unexpected surprises."
Zhu Qinghao thought about it for a while but was still worried, so she took out some of the dumplings that she had wrapped and frozen and gave them to Zhu Qi'an to take with her.
"Take this with you too. If the filling isn't good, you can cook this for breakfast tomorrow morning, or you can cook this to eat on the way. Just don't go hungry."
Zhu Qi'an looked at the three or four cloth bags hanging on her hands and the basket on her back, both amused and exasperated.
"Okay, I think it's about time, right?"
I just went home, but it looks like I've come all this way to freeload! I'm covered in clothes from head to toe, I can't possibly put any more down.
Zhu Qinghao looked him up and down, then examined the items, and nodded after confirming that everything was almost complete.
"Okay, that's settled then."
Zhu Qi'an breathed a sigh of relief upon receiving permission, not for any other reason than that he had to take almost everything he had taken from Zhu Qinghao with him.
In addition, the cowshed will definitely prepare a lot for him, which can't help but worry him. How will he carry so many things?
Moreover, Zhu Qingyun has never been a very considerate person. She only cares about making preparations and doesn't care whether others are easy to take care of. Once she has prepared something, she has to bring it along.
Thinking of Zhu Qingjun's past habits of preparing things, and then looking at Zhu Qinghao's things, the scales in his heart suddenly tipped to the sky.
Never mind, I'll prepare it with my younger sister instead.
At least these things don't come with any soup or water, and they're all packed in cloth bags, so you can just sling them over wherever you want and go.
And what happened later proved him right; the steamed buns he brought proved to be a great help on the journey.
Fortunately, most of the steamed buns he brought were made by Zhu Qinghao. He didn't know who made them at the cowshed, but as soon as he got on the bus, he found that they were so hard that they could make an enamel basin bang loudly when you hit them.
However, Zhu Qinghao's steamed buns have something added to them, making them taste better and softer to the touch. Even when they get cold and hard, they don't become so hard that they can make a loud clanging sound when you tap them on an enamel mug.
So without the slightest hesitation, he stuffed the rock-like steamed bun into his bundle, took out the one Zhu Qinghao had made, and sat down to eat it slowly and deliberately.
——
After Zhu Qi'an left, Zhu Qinghao started going to the cowshed more often, mainly to keep Wen Chuyi company.
When people are bored, they tend to overthink, especially since she was pregnant. So Zhu Qinghao would often go and talk to her, do some crafts with her, and so on, to keep her from overthinking.
Perhaps because they have a child, the two of them learn together to make small clothes and shoes for the child, which makes it less boring and the time flies by.
In the blink of an eye, the first month of the lunar calendar is over, and the New Year is over too.
