Chapter 35: Meat Bun Part 2 

Originally, a bun made of white flour is enough to make Zhao Xiuzhu happy, but when she heard that it is also a meat bun, her joy was even more inexpressible.

For country people who can’t eat meat a few times a year, meat is definitely a very precious existence. Zhao Xiuzhu almost forgot what meat is like, she just remembered that the meat is very fragrant and delicious!

Now that she heard that she could eat a meat bun, she almost cried with excitement.

Regarding Zhao Xiulan’s words, Zhao Xiuzhu was still young and simple. She did not doubt the authenticity of Zhao Xiulan’s words, so she said happily, “Sister, this kind-hearted person is so nice, as he gave you meat buns to eat!”

Zhao Xiulan fondly touched Zhao Xiuzhu’s head and said, “Hurry up and eat, it would be bad if Auntie Mei finds out about it.”

“Sister, then we should divide it in half.” When Zhao Xiuzhu saw such a big bun, she didn’t want to swallow it alone, and wanted to share it with Zhao Xiulan.

Zhao Xiulan knew that this younger sister felt sorry for her and cared about her. She still wanted to eat with her when she got something delicious. A warm current flowed through her heart, and she could understand Zhao Xiuzhu’s intentions.

Zhao Xiulan shook her head and said, “No need, I’ve already eaten one earlier. Not only did I eat a bun, but that kind-hearted person also gave me a bowl of noodles to eat. I couldn’t finish the noodles and I had leftovers, but I couldn’t bring them back, so my stomach is full now!”

When Zhao Xiuzhu heard Zhao Xiulan say this, she didn’t doubt the authenticity of Zhao Xiulan’s words again, she just felt that her sister would definitely not lie to her.

After all, she was still a small child, and when faced with the temptation of a meat bun, she couldn’t wait to devour it.

The meat bun is made of white flour and the fragrant filling flowed into her mouth after a bite, Zhao Xiuzhu only felt that she had never eaten such a delicious thing before.

It didn’t take long for a meat bun to be eaten into her stomach. After eating it, Zhao Xiuzhu licked the sauce on her finger with some aftertaste, and the aftertaste is endless.

The meat bun is very big. Zhao Xiuzhu’s stomach was originally very small, and she also ate a wowotou at lunch, so she is full now.

Zhao Xiuzhu touched her stomach, chuckled, and said to Zhao Xiulan with a satisfied expression, “Sister, the meat bun is really delicious. I have eaten it all. It’s been a long time since I felt so full like I am today.”

After hearing this, Zhao Xiulan felt sad for a while, pulled the corner of her mouth and said to Zhao Xiuzhu, “In the future, I will go to beg for food and see if I can get good things for Xiuzhu to eat, just like today.”

Zhao Xiuzhu responded heavily, “Okay, Sister, if it’s like this every day, our family won’t have to be hungry, and that would be great.

Sister, why don’t I go and beg with you as well? There should be many people and great strength, so if we beg together, then the two of us we’ll get more foodstuffs!”

Zhao Xiulan immediately refused, “No, you’d better stay at home!”

If Zhao Xiuzhu followed, her purpose of going to the county seat would not be achieved, and many things would be exposed.

Zhao Xiuzhu inexplicably asked, “Sister, why?”

Afraid of Zhao Xiuzhu’s suspicion, Zhao Xiulan explained with a reason, “The county seat is too far away. You are still young and can’t walk that long way. I can walk faster by myself. Moreover, it’s okay to beg for food alone, instead of having two people. I don’t want to worry about letting you beg alone. If we can’t split up, then it’s better to be just me all alone. Besides, you can still earn work points at home, so when it’s time for distribution of provisions, we can get more foodstuffs.”

Hearing Zhao Xiulan say this, Zhao Xiuzhu thought that it made sense.

She doesn’t want to be a drag on her sister. If she can’t walk, then her sister will have to carry her, right?
