Chapter 5: Steam Bun (Part 3)

4 children, 8 hands. Even though the clothes are still tattered, but at least the hands are clean.

Right now, other than grandpa, there are 5 children, including Shiyu. There used to be 7 of them, but 2 of them passed away after falling ill.

Perhaps it is because they had filled their bellies for a few days, the children are not all skins and bones anymore. Each of them has some colour in their cheeks. Shiyu was thinking of earning some monies to buy some clothes for them.

She is the eldest, and almost 15. For the other children, the youngest one, Xiao Qi is almost 10 years old. As long as they have food to eat, they should grow up quickly. They should not wear the tattered clothes.

While Shiyu was thinking, the water had boiled.

Grandpa said that he will help out to knead the dough. Shiyu did not reject his offer. She directed the other children to wash the vegetables, while she cut the pork.

This world is similar to the past – everyone love to eat the fatty part of the pork, and does not like the lean meat. As a result, lean meat is much cheaper. Shiyu purchased a lot of lean meat, with a bit of fat in them. When she had minced the pork, she added some salt and onions.

Then she also minced the mushroom and vegetables and placed them on another plate.

After ingredients are prepared, the dough is also ready. The old and young begins to wrap the buns. Buns are easy to wrap. The worse that could happen is that the buns do not look good. Shiyu is an old hand, and the grandpa is not too bad. The buns that they wrapped look much better. As for the rest, it looked very poor.

In this group of children, Shiyu discovered that Xiao Wu has a talent for cooking. After guiding Xiao Wu, the buns that Xiao Wu wrapped also begin to look good.

After they have wrapped some buns, Shiyu immediately begins to steam them. At the same time, she assigned Xiao Er to watch the fire.

In a short, the kitchen was filled with the scent of a mouth-watering aroma of pork. Shiyu felt that her saliva was drooling. It had a been a long time since she had meat. Once she thought about the steamed buns, she immediately salivated.

She is not the only one. All the other children and grandpa were also drooling. Luckily, there are enough for everyone.

Shiyu opened the lid of the steamer. The steam buns looked very tasty. She used a chopstick and poke the top of the bun, it is springy. Looks like these buns are ready for consumption.

She took out the steaming tray, and take out all the buns, then she added more buns into the steaming tray and steamed the second bunch of buns.

All the children surrounded her and looked at her with pleading eyes, "Elder Sister, can we eat now?"

"Eat, eat, eat! But be careful, it is hot!" She immediately grabbed a bun.

The skin of the bun is very soft, and when you bite into it, you can see the gravy. Just one gentle bite and the juicy gravy within leaked out.

"Oh, it is hot!" Shiyu cried out. But she did not stop eating, and with a big bite, half the bun is gone.

The pork is very tender and there are some traces of fat within it. After steaming, the fat melted and become tasty soup contained within the meat. Once you bite it, your mouth will be filled with the tasty meat juice. The best thing is that you will not feel it is greasy.

After eating 5 buns, Shiyu finally stopped. She was really hungry, and love the taste of the bun.

At this moment, Xiao Qi suddenly exclaimed, "Oh, so filling! I used to crave meat buns in the past. To think that I have a chance to taste it today!"

After hearing these words, Shiyu suddenly felt as if there is something in her body that was released. She could not tell what it is. But Xiao Qi words made her recalled the novel that their two friends had written. At this time, it was a bit hazy, and she could not recall anything.

Forget it. Let's set it aside for now.

The children and grandpa ate half of the buns.

After some rest, Shiyu took out another bun and slowly ate it. At the same time, she informed Grandpa, "Let's sell the steam buns from tomorrow onwards. We earn some money and take care of ourselves. Without money, we cannot improve our lives."

"Your steam buns are very tasty, and I am sure that people will buy it." Grandpa agreed with this idea. "The problem is where do we sell it? We cannot set up a stall anywhere."

Grandpa had a valid concern. Each of the restaurants and food establishment had their own area. If they were to enter the area and start selling their food, it would create conflicts.

"I had already thought of this. We will sell it near the city gates! There are a lot of people coming and leaving the city, but there are fewer stalls there. It is easier to get a place for selling our wares. But now I am more worried about how to carry all these stuff over." This world does not have cars. If they have a vehicle, it would be a lot more convenient.

"Not a problem. We have a lot of people and can help out. The difficulty lies with the stove."

In the end, the stove was transported there with a cart. This world does not have coal, but Shiyu sent the children to pick up some loose wood from the temple. When these woods are placed in the furnace, they also emit the pleasant smell of sandalwood.

The next day, they put the plan into action.

That morning, everyone woke up earlier, and use a cart to push everything out of the city gates. Shiyu had already heated up the buns that she had made in advance. At the same time, she continued to make more buns.

Everyone was clean, although their clothes are a bit tattered.

After a short while, when the buns are heated, they emitted a mouth-watering scent.

The children immediately cried out to attract customers, "Selling steam buns, soft and tender buns! Only 1 copper coin for 1 bun!"

Hearing their cries, someone approached.

Most of the people who come in the morning are those who were rushing into the city. Many of them are hungry. After smelling the buns, a man walked over, and asked, "What type of buns are these? How much for one?"

The children are very bright and have learned everything yesterday. They immediately replied, "Fresh meat buns 2 copper coins for 1, mushroom meat bun 1 copper coins for 1, vegetable buns is 1 coppers for 2. Which one do you prefer?"

The customer sniffed, and replied, "2 mushroom meat buns!"

"Great!" Lao Er had used a leaf to wrap the buns in it and handed it over.

The man immediately took a bite, and he loves the taste. He had tried a bun before, but it was not as tasty as this. He easily wolfed down the two buns, and licked his lips, "Your buns are really delicious! Give me to 10 more mushroom meat buns, I want to bring them home for my family to try."

"You are a filial son." Lao Er said, and immediately handed over a leaf wrapped bun filled with buns.

In just a short while, they have earned 12 copper coins. Everyone was elated.

The wonderful smell continued to attract customers. After the first customer had left, more and customers appeared....
