Chapter 109 Willow Leaf Steamed Dumplings
The next morning, Cheng Yao and his party woke up from their hazy sleep.

A few streets apart, they didn't know that such an incident had happened in Qiubu Village last night.

Unexpectedly, Xiaoling, who said goodbye to them with a smile last night, would become an orphan overnight.

People in this world each have their own happiness and misfortune.

"Bang bang bang-"

"Ayao—get up!"

"We are going back today."

"By the way, if you get up late for the willow leaf steamed dumplings we had in the morning, Tingyu and I will eat them all and won't leave any for you!"

Qiu Wanying seemed to be able to see Cheng Yao jumping up from the bed in a hurry, holding back her laughter and ran away.

As expected, the original Cheng Yao was still struggling repeatedly between waking and sleeping.

When I heard that there were steamed dumplings for breakfast, my eyes immediately opened wide.

"Steamed dumplings?!"

"I'm coming too!"

With a burst of strength, he rolled out of the bed.

I dressed and washed quickly, but spent some time on my hair.

Although Cheng Yao can now do a relatively simple bun, it is still a grueling and delicate job.

Cheng Yao sat in front of the bronze mirror and couldn't help but envy Qiu Wanying.

With Tingyu's skillful hands at her side, all kinds of hairstyles are easy to come by.

Humph, no wonder she is so fast.

There is plug-in support!
After finally tossing herself up, Cheng Yao hurried downstairs holding up her skirt.

With sharp eyes, she immediately found the figures of Qiu Wanying and Ting Yu, as well as several steamed dumplings on the table.

"I'm coming!"

Cheng Yao sat down, happily picked up the chopsticks and picked up the steamed dumplings.

I looked around but didn't see the vinegar plate, so I said hello to the waiter.

"Waiter, give us some vinegar on this table!"

"okay--"

After receiving the customer's request, the waiter put the white cloth on his shoulders, turned and walked to the kitchen.

Then he diligently brought the vinegar dish up.

"Girl, you want the vinegar."

"Girl, you seem to be particularly good at eating sour foods. I've been impressed by you recently."

The waiter is a young man with a kind face. It can be seen that he is very enthusiastic and loves to chat with the guests.

Cheng Yao smiled sheepishly, dipped the dumplings in vinegar, put them in her mouth and said.

"This one is better."

"Don't tell me, your vinegar is pretty good!"

After receiving compliments from the guests, the waiter puffed up his chest proudly.

“The customer really knows the goods!”

"Our vinegar is rice vinegar, and its color is brown-red. It is bright in color and has a strong luster."

"The sourness on the palate is softer, not pungent, sour and sweet, without astringency, and has a long aftertaste."

“It’s perfect for removing fishy smell, reducing spiciness, and adding fragrance. It can also be used as a dipping sauce.”

The more Cheng Yao listened to it, the more she liked it and wanted to pack some and take them away.

Just do what you say, it would be a pity to miss something good.

"Okay, okay, can you sell some to me?"

"With this vinegar, my food tastes better."

The waiter had never met a customer who came specifically to buy vinegar, so he was a little undecided.

"Well, I'm just running errands. I don't know if I can sell it directly."

"Guest, please wait a moment, I'll ask the shopkeeper."

"I'll give you an answer later."

Cheng Yao nodded and motioned to the waiter to ask quickly.

Naturally, the other party didn't dare to be careless and quickly turned around and left.

Cheng Yao's eyes followed the other party for a while, and when she turned around, she saw two pairs of big, dazzling eyes.

"what happened?"

Cheng Yao was a little confused and asked curiously while chewing.

Then, she lowered her gaze and understood.

Qiu Wanying ate dumplings dipped in soy sauce, Ting Yu ate dumplings dipped in chili sauce, and Cheng Yao dipped them in vinegar.A smokeless dipping sauce war is about to break out.

Fortunately, Cheng Yao's taste is all-encompassing, whether soy sauce or chili sauce, each has its own taste.

"It's all delicious. Thousands of people, thousands of flavors. By the way, don't you want to try my vinegar dish?"

Looking at Cheng Yao's expectant eyes, Qiu Wanying and Ting Yu both shook their heads in unison.

"Oh, what a pity."

Cheng Yao sighed and ate a few more.

"Although I know you will keep it for me, I have to say that this method really works for me."

"As soon as I heard that there was no breakfast, I became very energetic."

Qiu Wanying had finished eating and wiped the corners of her mouth.

"Humph, that's right."

"This method is best for you. Otherwise, if you continue to stay in bed, it will be too late when we return to Yushui Town."

"According to the originally estimated time, Cheng Yaozu will be back around tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"I'm afraid he doesn't know that the good things he has done have been wiped out by those shopkeepers."

"Let's go back early, plan well, and give him a surprise blow."

Cheng Yao dipped it in chili sauce and gave it a try. It was quite spicy and made her tongue numb.

He hurriedly took a sip of tea, stuck out his tongue and breathed out, even his words were a bit slurred.

"That's right! Just to make him look confused."

"When we bring him to court and face witnesses and material evidence, is there any way he can quibble?"

"However, let me tell you, Ting Yu, you are too good at spicy food."

"I saw that your expression didn't change at all. I thought the chili sauce just smells good and doesn't taste very spicy."

"I didn't expect it to be so powerful, it made my tongue lose consciousness."

Cheng Yao looked at Tingyu in disbelief, with a calm face, not a trace of red on his fair and tender face.

Seeing Cheng Yao's appearance, Qiu Wanying and Ting Yu couldn't help laughing.

Then, Qiu Wanying explained.

“Tingyu’s hometown is always cold and humid all year round, so the locals eat chili peppers to keep away the cold.”

“Tingyu has been eating chili peppers since he was a snack, and now he doesn’t even feel the same when eating ordinary chili peppers.”

"You are also a tiger. You don't know how to eat spicy food, but you dipped it in so much at once. It's salty to death."

Cheng Yao smiled sheepishly. She knew from now on that she must not be too reckless and had to ask first.

"Hey, by the way, why has my jealousy been silent for a long time?"

"Didn't the waiter ask for help?"

Cheng Yao suddenly realized that they had almost finished eating.

If the waiter doesn't come back, she will miss out on being jealous.

"Little Second!"

Cheng Yao couldn't help but feel anxious and greeted loudly.

"Hey - it's coming, it's coming."

The waiter just now ran over in a hurry, with an embarrassed look on his face.

"what's up?"

"Is it okay to give me a reply?"

Facing the customer's question, the waiter hurriedly explained.

"I'm really sorry. I just learned that something happened outside, so I went to find out more about the situation."

"That's the delay. By the way, our shopkeeper said it can be sold."

"If the guests like it, I will pack some for you later."

Cheng Yao nodded with satisfaction and asked casually.

"What happened outside?"

"It's so noisy that even your business people came to see it."

The waiter sighed and said sadly.

"There was an accident a few streets ago. There was a fire last night and everything was burned down."

"That child Xiaoling is also pitiful. Her mother is gone and her house is gone..."

Cheng Yao's eyes suddenly opened wide and she confirmed in disbelief.

"what?!"
