Chapter 16: Sour Beans and Pork Belly Stuffed

Jiang Dabao pursed his lips and smiled, took out a brick he had been holding from his arms and threw it to the side of the road, saying: "I have hidden weapons, so I can help a little bit."

Seeing this, Jiang Xue froze for a moment, he actually ran all the way holding Brick, no wonder he was panting so badly.

For a moment Jiang Xue didn't know what to say, she seemed to have a warm feeling in her heart.

"Let's go, let's go back and talk."

When the two returned to the dilapidated house, Aunt Jiang who was waiting in the house heard footsteps and immediately raised her voice and asked, "Is it Dabao?"

"Yes."

Jiang Dabao replied: "Grandma, it's me. Sister Xue and I are back."

When Jiang Xue and Jiang Dabao entered the door, they saw Mrs. Jiang obviously relieved.

"You child, you have said that you don't need to worry about finding people. It's dangerous for a girl's family to go out and stay outside at night."

"You have to come back early tomorrow. The outskirts of the city are no better than the city. There are no street lights at night. Besides, it's winter now, and there are no people on the road. Even in the city at night, it may not be safe..."

Aunt Jiang chattered a few words, and then seemed to realize that she had talked too much, and said embarrassedly: "Then what, Comrade Jiang, I am old and I like to chatter, don't worry about it."

"It's okay, ma'am, I know you care about me."

Jiang Xue: "Thank you, Ma'am."

The two people who came back didn't talk about what happened on the road just now. Jiang Dabao didn't want grandma to worry and thought it was unnecessary, while Jiang Xue didn't know how to speak, but she was grateful in her heart.

At this moment, Jiang Dabao's stomach growled again.

He rubbed his stomach in embarrassment, and walked quickly towards the fire with burning water: "Grandma, I'll cook right away."

Seeing that he was going to boil water for cooking, Jiang Xue hurriedly said to Aunt Jiang who was leaning on the bed, "Madam, I haven't eaten dinner yet."

Originally, I planned to eat on the way out of the city, but it didn't mean that I met someone following me, and then came back with Jiang Dabao, so I didn't have a chance to eat.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Jiang immediately said to Jiang Dabao: "Sanba, cook more."

"En." Jiang Dabao obediently responded.

But Jiang Xue refused, while taking out something from her shoulder bag: "Dabao, don't bother, it's late, so don't bother."

"Come on, I just bought buns, let's eat buns."

Naturally, what Jiang Xue took was not the big meat buns that weighed four pounds per catty at this time, but the meat buns that would weigh eight or nine per catty in later generations, about the size of a fist.

They're not big, but they're full of meat inside, not those jerry-built meat buns that don't sink in one bite, don't sink in two bites, and sink too much in the third bite.

The reason why she took meat buns was firstly because it was convenient, and secondly, well, it was because of convenience, since she couldn't take out three lunch boxes from her shoulder bag.

State-run restaurants also sell buns, so buns are the most suitable. Jiang Xue took out a kraft paper bag and stuffed buns inside.

There are twenty in total, although it is quite a lot, but the buns are not big, and her shoulder bag is big, so it is not suspicious.

Seeing the white buns, Aunt Jiang and Jiang Dabao were obviously stunned for a moment, and swallowed unconsciously.

"Then you eat buns, I'm not hungry, just drink some millet porridge with Dabao." Aunt Jiang quickly looked away from the buns and said hastily.

It is good to have millet to eat, how can I be greedy for the girl's meat buns.

Jiang Dabao also nodded in agreement: "Yes, Sister Xue, I'm not hungry, and I don't want to eat buns."

Not hungry?

Jiang Xue is not stupid, just now Jiang Dabao's stomach was still rumbling.

"What kind of millet porridge are you eating? Steamed buns? Steamed buns can't last forever." Sitting on a low stool, Jiang Xue grabbed two steamed buns and stuffed them into Aunt Jiang's and Dabao's hands.

"Ma'am, let's eat steamed stuffed buns today." Among other things, Jiang Xue was willing to go to Jiang Dabao to save her regardless of the danger.

"It's cold, but it's also full." After finishing speaking, Jiang Xue grabbed a steamed bun and took a bite. Immediately, the smell of steamed buns stuffed with sour beans and pork belly spread in the room.

Jiang Xue narrowed her almond eyes slightly. It would be great if she could have a bowl of hot mutton soup at this time.

Although there is in the space, Jiang Xue is not easy to take it out, so he can only secretly greedy in his heart.

"Gululu..." Stimulated by the smell of the big meat bun, another sound came from Jiang Dabao's stomach at this moment.

After taking two bites, seeing that the grandparents and grandchildren hadn't moved, Jiang Xue urged: "Ma'am, you should eat too! It's stuffed with sour beans and pork belly, it's not bad."

At the end of the sentence, seeing the grandfather and grandson looking at each other and still not moving, Jiang Xue rolled her eyes, looking unhappy and said: "Mother, do you dislike me for disturbing you?"

"Forget it, since this is the case, or I'd better leave now." Said, Jiang Xue made a gesture to get up.

"No, no, you child, don't bother me." Aunt Jiang waved her hand quickly.

There is no such thing as disturbing or not disturbing, not to mention it is dark outside, a girl's house is going out, and if something happens on the way, it is really heartless.

Jiang Xue sat down again, but looked at Aunt Jiang, and said, "Then why don't you and Dabao eat steamed buns? If you and Dabao don't eat, I won't dare to disturb you starting tomorrow."

Aunt Jiang and Jiang Dabao were staring blankly at the meat buns in their hands. Hearing Jiang Xue's words, Jiang Dabao subconsciously looked at grandma, while Aunt Jiang looked at Jiang Xue, her eyes flushed, and she choked up and said: "Eat, eat, thanks to you today, let's eat meat buns."

She can eat a mouthful of meat buns, even if she dies now, she will have no regrets, but she still can't let go of her third child.

"That's right, ma'am, let's eat buns together."

Jiang Dabao looked at the bun again, looked up and saw that grandma had already taken a bite of the meat bun, thanked Jiang Xue softly, and then began to eat.

Jiang Xue quickly finished eating a meat bun, which was already cold, after all, Jiang Xue transferred from the space to the shoulder bag when he was about to arrive.

The grandparents and grandchildren took small bites of the buns, each bite had to be slowly squeezed and held in their mouths for a long time, and they didn't eat half of it for a long time. The appearance of carefully cherishing it made Jiang Xue think that he was eating. What delicacies.

Jiang Xue felt a little uncomfortable, she grabbed the second bun, but instead of chewing it directly, she broke it into two halves, regardless of whether Aunt Jiang and Jiang Dabao were still holding the bun, she stuffed it into each of their hands half.

She seemed embarrassed and laughed and said: "Mother, you have to eat, so I am ashamed to eat the second one."

"Hey, this..." Mrs. Jiang couldn't tell that Jiang Xue did it on purpose, and it was too late to stop her, so she had to grab half of the bun with red eyes.

"Comrade Jiang, let you spend money, such a precious thing, it's too wasteful for us to eat..."
