In the blink of an eye, Start of Autumn arrived.
On that day, Granny Han rose early.
The old woman always followed the traditional solar terms closely.
"Eat the 'zha' of Start of Autumn, adults won't vomit, children won't have diarrhea."
'Zha' is a kind of dregs made from green vegetables and mashed beans. It's crudely made in ordinary households and tasteless, but now that there was grain at home, Feng Yun had given special instructions. This year they were to have "sweet zha," so Granny Han added some sugar.
Sugar was a precious commodity. It was still the two jars they had scavenged from Wang Dian's house. She had intended to let only the young ladies have something sweet, but Feng Yun insisted that everyone in the residence should have some, which made Granny Han grumble about the waste.
"This kind of prodigality won't last, and before long we'll be starving again."
Feng Yun just laughed it off.
