The girl, originally intending to take her food home, suddenly thought that she could probably try a taste first.
“Isn’t it a new product?” she reasoned.
There’s no harm in helping her son taste it.
“Give me a pair of chopsticks too, I’ll have a taste myself,” she said.
The woman promptly sat down at another table, eagerly waiting for Bai Zhi.
Bai Zhi smiled, handed her chopsticks, and the woman tried the pan-fried dumplings first.
You have to eat pan-fried dumplings while they’re hot; the bottom of the dumplings is crispy, even with a bit of crusty rice.
Biting into one, the crunch was satisfying, and the meat filling was juicy.
She burned her mouth slightly, but it was so delicious, with the flavor of green onions complementing the meat filling well, she couldn’t bear to spit it out.
The dumplings disappeared one after another; she wanted more, but there were still crispy potatoes to consider.
The potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, fried with some bean sprouts, and had a slightly sweet spiciness with just the right amount of sourness. She was in love.
Before she realized it, the entire large bag was gone. She found it a bit unbelievable. Could she really eat that much?
Indeed, she could.
“Miss, I want three yuan’s worth of meat-filled pan-fried dumplings, and two more servings of crispy potatoes—one spicy and one sweet and sour spicy,” she said.
Though full, she recalled the child at home awaiting food, so she opted to have it packed.
“Alright, I’ll start preparing it right away.”
Bai Zhi immediately began working. The girl at the table nearby, having just had her food packed, was unhappy. She stood up, walked over to Bai Zhi, pouted, and looked up at her.
“Why won’t you sell to me? Are you afraid I don’t have money? I do have money,” she said.
Fearing Bai Zhi wouldn’t believe her, the girl quickly pulled out a lot of money from her embroidery-decorated pouch, all in fifty and hundred denominations.
There were also plenty of fives and tens. Bai Zhi quickly covered the girl’s pouch and pulled her over to the washbasin.
“Don’t take your money out like that. You shouldn’t show your money off, young lady, understand? I’m not refusing to sell to you, nor am I worried you don’t have money. I’m just afraid you’ll overeat,” Bai Zhi explained.
She looked at the girl—a bit chubby, but not appearing to be someone who could eat a lot. Overeating wouldn’t be good.
“It’s okay, I can eat a lot. I won’t overdo it. I want to try every single dish you have, and I’m not worried about someone stealing my money; they can’t beat me,” the girl confidently declared, patting her chest.
With her round face and big eyes full of confidence, she was so earnest, so adorable, that Bai Zhi couldn’t resist pinching her cheek.
Wow, so pinchable.
“Really? Alright then, I’ll make it for you. If you can’t finish, just take it home with you. Wait here, and don’t take your money out again, do you hear?” Bai Zhi instructed.
After taking the woman’s money for her packed order, Bai Zhi started making the dumplings for the young girl, with the potatoes last. Once finished, she brought them over and realized the dumplings were already gone?
What kind of immortal speed was this, this little girl had a surprisingly huge appetite.
“Here are your potatoes. Can you still eat? Or do you want them packed?”
Bai Zhi was genuinely concerned, afraid the girl’s tiny frame would burst from overeating.
“No worries, I’m not full yet. I’m only half full now,” the girl replied, wiping her mouth and continuing to eat. In no time at all, the potatoes were gone too.
“Sister, what you’ve made is really delicious. My name is Wu Wa, and I live on the other side of that mountain. I sell silver jewelry, so I’m very rich. Don’t worry, hurry up and pack me ten or eight servings to take home for my Mommy to eat.”
Wu Wa felt that it really was too delicious, and she wanted to bring some home for her Mommy.
“Did you come by yourself?”
Bai Zhi frowned. Such a small child, and her Mommy let her come all this way? Isn’t that other side of that mountain where the Gujiang Clan lives?
As one of the ethnic minorities in Nanning Province, the Gujiang Clan lived just across two mountains from Nanning County City. It was dangerous and there were wild animals roaming around. How did this little girl come here?
However, the Gujiang Clan excelled in silver jewelry and embroidery. Their clothes, with blue and black backgrounds, were embroidered with beautiful flowers, birds, and animals. They were quite beautiful.
“No, I came with people from my village. We come here once a month, and this time I followed my friends. Sister, hurry up and pack for me. Oh, and this is for you.”
The girl took out a beautiful silver bracelet from her bag, but the pattern on it was somewhat ugly.
“This, I…”
Bai Zhi hadn’t finished speaking when the girl interrupted.
“This is my first crafted item. I like you, so I’m giving it to you. It’s very important to us. To give it to someone means a lifetime of friendship. If you don’t accept it, it means I’m not welcome, and I’ll have to throw it away.”
The girl’s eyes fell, seemingly very sad.
Actually, she had intended to give it to a little friend, but for some reason, she now wanted to give it to this sister. Maybe because the sister’s fried dumplings were so tasty?
“Why throw it away?”
Even with a slight flaw, there was no need to toss it, right? It must be made of pure silver.
“Because you don’t want it. For the first piece of silver jewelry we make, we give it to the most important person. If they don’t want it, it means I’m not qualified to make silver jewelry anymore.”
The little girl thought to herself, feeling a little upset. Although she knew it, she still wanted to give it to this sister.
“Um… but I’m not from your clan, so how about I give you money for it? How much is it? I’ll pay you, and that’s also accepting it. Okay?”
It had to be pure silver, worth at least several hundred yuan. How could she just accept it? Unless she paid, but truthfully, she was quite poor and maybe couldn’t afford it. That would be awkward.
“No, you can’t take money for it. This is my first silver jewelry, it’s a token of affection. Once you accept it, you’ll be my sister, and I’ll treat you well, help you fight off the bad guys.”
The little girl raised her chubby little fists, looking incredibly cute.
“You can fight off bad guys? That’s great, okay, I’ll accept it.”
She’d buy her something else in the future. The little girl looked like she was about to cry.
“Really?”
The little girl brightened up at the word, hurrying to put the bracelet on Bai Zhi, fearing she might regret it.
“Now that you’re wearing my bracelet, you’re my person.”
And she’d have a sister too. If anyone dared to bully her, hmm, she’d show them her little tiger teeth and fight them off.
“Um” little sister, you shouldn’t say it like that.
“Sister, what’s your name? I have to go back and tell my Mommy. Or why don’t you come home with me?”
Wu Wa blinked at Bai Zhi, her round little face and big watery eyes almost speaking for themselves, adorable beyond words, making you want to take her home, what to do?
“No, that won’t do, my grandpa would worry too. I’m always here at the market, you can come and find me. Also, I’ll pack for you, and I won’t take your money. You’re my little sister, aren’t you?
Next time, discuss it with your Mommy, and you can come over to my place to play, but you can’t run off by yourself. Do you hear?”
