To cook dumplings, you had to add tap water three times. Each time the water in the pot boils, just add some tap water, then add some two more times. When the dumplings in the pot float, they can be eaten.
There were so many dumplings that could not be cooked in one pot, so they were cooked in three batches, and Aunt Chen cooked nearly 40 dumplings at a time.
Although the dumplings didn’t taste much, they still gave off a steaming hot aroma after they were cooked, and the few people sitting with greed in the room swallowed their saliva.
Xiulan hadn’t eaten much delicious food during that period. Most of the time, she ate coarse grains that were difficult to swallow in the Zhaos’ house. Now that she smelled the dumplings, the gluttonous insects in her stomach stirred up.
After the first pot of dumplings came out, the couple asked Xiulan and Cheng to eat first.
Zhao Xiulan refused, “Uncle Chen, you and Cheng should eat first, I’m not hungry yet!”
“How can this work? Xiulan, you are a guest, so you should eat first. This old man will eat later.” Uncle Chen didn’t follow suit and insisted for Zhao Xiulan to eat first.
“Uncle Chen, you are an elder, so you should eat first!”
Aunt Chen, who was on the side, also persuaded her with a smile, “It’s okay, Xiulan, don’t be polite to your Uncle Chen. You and Cheng are our guests, so you guys should eat first. I’ll cook another pot, it will just take a moment, it won’t take long.”
It probably didn’t take 10 minutes for a pot of dumplings to cook. Xiulan didn’t say anything more and agreed to just eat first. There was no need to be so hypocritical.
Aunt Chen served the dumplings on a large plate and gave two small bowls to Xiulan and Cheng.
Not only they had a broken pot, but also the bowls were not so good, as there were holes in them.

Uncle Chen sighed and said, “There are only dumplings and no vinegar in the house. Otherwise, the dumplings will taste much better with vinegar, so you can just make do with it.”
When they hadn’t had a downfall, they lived a good life. The food was not only good, but they were also very particular about many aspects.
But now, there were not even enough foodstuffs to eat and they couldn’t do anything about it. With regards to oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar, those things were very rare. They only had a little salt at home and didn’t have any other seasonings.
Now that they were going to eat dumplings without vinegar, Uncle Chen had a little regret, but he was still very satisfied to be able to eat dumplings. He had not eaten such good things for several years.
After listening to his words, Xiulan also felt that the dumplings had to be eaten with vinegar and spicy sauce to make them more delicious.
In her previous life, every time she ate dumplings, she would dip them in vinegar and chili sauce, probably because she had a strong taste. So, she liked to eat dumplings with those and felt that they tasted a little more flavorful.
Zhao Xiulan said, “Uncle Chen, it’s a coincidence. I brought vinegar and chili sauce today. I originally wanted to take them to the black market to exchange for something. Since it will not work out as I stayed here for lunch, we can just have them here.”
What Zhao Xiulan said was pure nonsense. She didn’t bring those today. She pretended to say that and she would just take them out of the space later. Everything was in her space and she had everything she wanted.
Uncle Chen was overjoyed and asked, “Xiulan, do you really have vinegar and chili sauce?”
How many good things could this girl have in her hands? She had foodstuffs and she even had those things.
“Haha! Yes, I do! I can’t even lie to you!” Xiulan said that while pretending to go to the basket to get them. But she actually took out a bottle of vinegar and chili sauce from the space.
Vinegar and chili sauce were both in glass bottles. In the beginning, Zhao Xiulan went to the place of origin to buy them directly. She didn’t ask the manufacturers to put trademarks, so it was much cheaper.
Whether it was foodstuffs or condiments such as oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar, Zhao Xiulan hoarded them all before the apocalypse started and put them all in the space.
