Tian Sisi still didn't know that just one encounter had made Xu Feifei jealous of her. At the moment, she was strolling around the town, which only boasted a Supply and Marketing Cooperative, a restaurant, and a vegetable market — utterly simple.
Tian Sisi had only eaten a potato at noon and was quite hungry. Tian Xinhua and the others hadn't eaten their fill either, so upon arriving in town, they went straight to the restaurant and each ordered a bowl of dumplings. Hu Weiwen, having eaten five large steamed buns, couldn't eat anymore and just watched as his younger siblings ate.
The dumplings here were genuinely substantial, large and full of filling, made with mutton and onion flower, a local wild vegetable which is delicious whether it's the stems or the blossoms, wonderfully aromatic. Local onion flower mutton buns were particularly famous, and they tasted pretty good in dumplings too. Tian Sisi ate about ten but couldn't eat any more; she let Tian Xinhua eat the rest.
