Qiao Xiaomai was unaware of the commotion in the old courtyard. She came back home with Qiao Dami and then started to have lunch.
Boiled fish, chicken feet, and white steamed buns; the taste was excellent!
However, ever since she came here, she had been eating noodle-based dishes. As she chewed on her fish, she started to crave steamed white rice.
She was accustomed to eating noodles, but she also liked white rice. If she went too long without it, she found herself longing for it.
Deciding to act on her craving, after lunch, she scrubbed the iron pot, washed a pound of rice, put it in the pot, added water, and started to steam it.
Taking advantage of the break while the fire was lit, she packed two pounds of bean sprouts into a basket and gave them to Qiao Dami to deliver to the Tong Family.
She was expecting Tong Tiehu to promote her bean sprouts business in the village. Besides, considering Tong Tiehu's past help, she was obliged to send these bean sprouts.
