"She must have gone to someone's house to visit," Lady Zhang whispered.
Back in the West Wing Room, Lian Shouxin and Wu Lang were already stoking the fire and cooking.
"What are we eating for lunch?" Xiao Qi asked.
"Still the Sanhe flour buns, pickled vegetable frozen tofu, and we'll stir-fry some hot and sour bean sprouts, how about that?" Lian Shouxin discussed with Lady Zhang.
"Alright, let's have a good lunch and then just eat buns for dinner, who knows when that will be," Lady Zhang said.
"I was thinking the same," Lian Shouxin said with a smile.
The so-called Sanhe flour buns were steamed from a mixture of millet flour, legume flour, and a small amount of white flour. The addition of white flour greatly improved the texture, making them more satisfying to eat. The family loved the bean sprouts, which were stir-fried with dry chili peppers and specially seasoned with vinegar before serving, giving it a refreshing, sour, and spicy taste.
