Chapter 27: Steamed Buns
Grandma Bai felt sorry for Tang Wan and wanted her to go back to her hometown to rest.
"You should go back to Tang. The weather is too hot. You can make some mung bean soup to cool down." Tang Wan also stopped and wiped the sweat off her face.
Other people around had also returned, and it was indeed time for dinner.
Tang Wan should have been eating at the educated youth center at this time, but she didn't stay at the educated youth center yesterday and didn't tell them, so she still had lunch with Grandma Bai.
In fact, the spiritual spring water in that space has the effect of relieving summer heat. Tang Wan said this so that Grandma Bai could go back and have a rest.
"Okay, then I'll go back and make a pot. I didn't think about this this morning." Grandma Bai knew that Tang Wan wanted her to go back to her home to rest, but since she said she wanted to drink mung bean soup, she would definitely satisfy her.
After Grandma Bai returned to Tang, Tang Wan took care of the land on both sides by herself.
It is already the hottest time of the day at noon, but everyone is working much faster.
I will hurry up and clear a path for the water so that I can sit down and eat peacefully.
Tang Wan naturally did not fall behind.
After drinking the spiritual spring water, apart from being able to feel the heat of the weather, I didn't feel much physical fatigue.
I saw that some people were already eating under the shade of the trees at the edge of the field. Most of them had their children cook and bring them to them.
There was no good food at that time. Many people just steamed sweet potatoes or cornmeal mixed with a little white flour.
You need to eat something good during the days of working. At noon, most people at home drink porridge that is half thick and half thin.
Not long after, Grandma Bai also came over.
When Grandma Bai arrived, she quickly invited Tang Wan over.
"Why so fast?" Tang Wan wiped the sweat off her face and walked to Grandma Bai, taking the vegetable basket from her.
"The mung beans need to be cooked for a while longer to be effective. I'll put them in the pot and let them simmer. You can come back and get them after dinner. This meal has been prepared a long time ago. After a tiring morning, of course I'll eat first." Grandma Bai took the meal out of the basket.
In fact, I seldom ate sweet potatoes when I was at Grandma Bai's house.
I guess I prepared this because we will be having dinner together today.
In addition, there are seven or eight big buns.
As soon as this was taken out, Tang Wan could clearly hear the person next to her swallowing his saliva.
When eating white flour was a luxury, let alone white bread, no matter what the filling was, it had to taste good.
Just as Grandma Bai took the things out of the basket, Qin Zheng had finished his trip and came over to them.
As soon as he came over, the voices around him became a little quieter. At least the children who were originally clamoring for buns didn't dare to speak anymore.
Qin Zheng took off the towel from his neck and sat down casually.
Tang Wan was given a bun by Grandma Bai. After Grandma Bai picked up the bun and started eating it, Qin Zheng picked up the sweet potato next to it and started eating it.
The buns are filled with lard residue.
The fried food with a burnt aroma mixed with the vegetables creates a unique fragrance. The fat is scraped away without any oil or water, so it doesn't feel greasy at all, and multiple flavors burst in your mouth.
Tang Wan finished one without realizing it.
Immediately afterwards, Grandma Bai stuffed another one into his mouth.
"I can't finish it." Tang Wan wanted to put it down.
Each of the buns made by Grandma Bai was very big, and Tang Wan could only eat one at most.
