Chapter 402: Zhajiang Noodles (Four more updates) - 1
"He’s the old man," Xiaofeng hurriedly spoke up to introduce, "The old man is hungry and thirsty..."
Sini and Zhou Ying tacitly ran back into the house, and before long, Sini came out holding some pastries, while Zhou Ying carried out a slowly a bowl of water, which, because she was so small, spilled quite a bit as she walked.
"I’ll do it." The old man didn’t wait for anyone’s politeness and took the bowl himself, tilting his head to drink a couple mouthfuls, "Hmm, tastes good."
"Old man, have some pastries," Sini said as she lifted the pastries up.
The old man quickly took the pastries but shook his head after eating only one piece, "Not tasty." Then he turned to Yang Ruxin, "I want to eat a meal."
Yang Ruxin frowned but nodded helplessly, "Alright, I’ll go cook."
"My big sister cooks really delicious meals," Sini declared proudly to the old man.
A glint of light flashed through the old man’s eyes.
Because there was a festival that night, many foods had been prepared in advance, and there were no plans to make lunch complicated. Since the dough had been mixed in advance for gifting, Ruxin had been wanting to eat noodles with soybean paste and decided to prepare it. There was plenty of dough, a mixture of white flour, whole wheat, and cornmeal because pure white flour was too precious to use for making noodles alone at that time.
Yang Ruxin glanced at the dough in the basin and decided that there would be enough even with the addition of the old man.
