"This was pickled by Second and Third sister! They didn't mean to hide it from you. Big sister, don't be angry." Little sister Su was dizzy from fear when she saw what her big sister was doing.
Big sister didn't know how to pickle vegetables, so she didn't let them do it as well. However, there was nothing to eat at home. It was too unbearable to bite on dry cornbread all day long, so Second and Third sisters had secretly done some pickling.
Little sister Su's words shattered Su Wen's illusion about the original character.
"Second sister, Third sister have never played with little swallows before, so the pickled vegetables are very delicious and don't smell."
Looking at little sister Su's nervous gaze, a superstition held in the countryside came to Su Wen's mind. In the countryside of the past, girls had to learn how to make pickled vegetables, noodles, dumplings, and so on before they got married.
