Grandma was making Jiameng's traditional cuisine, commonly known as the eight big bowls.
The meatballs were made by chopping meat and tofu with various seasonings. The meatballs were then scraped into a small triangular shape with a thick head and a thin tail. The thin end was placed at the bottom of the bowl and placed in a circle along the edge. In the middle, some dried yellow flowers, fungus, radishes, and the like were placed in the pot and steamed.
Longan meat and streaky pork were cut into thick slices. In the middle, cooked red bean paste was placed to form a meatloaf. Some chopped brown sugar was placed at the bottom of the bowl. The rolled meatloaf was placed in three rows and cooked glutinous rice was placed on top of the meatloaf.
The eight big bowls contained eight different flavors of steamed vegetables.
There was salty and sweet.
There was spicy and sour.
Eight big bowls were placed on the table. Under the light, they looked delicious and tempting.
"Auntie, you and Tianxin made so much delicious food? You must have worked hard! "
Du Juan's gaze fell on a plate of crispy peanuts. She thought to herself that her grandmother was really a considerate person. Only such a kind grandmother could have raised such an adorable girl like Ye Tianxin.
"Not at all. Have a taste."
Jin Xin sat beside Du Juan. He poured a glass of beer and handed it to Grandma.
Grandma waved her hand. "You drink. I don't drink."
"Yes, you drink. Grandma never drinks."
Jin Xin picked up a piece of longan meat and placed it in the bowl in front of him. The meat had been steamed well, and it melted instantly. When it entered his mouth, there was a faint fragrance of glutinous rice and red beans. The layers of flavor were very rich.
"Auntie, your cooking is very good. You can stay in the capital and open a restaurant."
Hearing Jin Xin praise her grandma, Ye Tianxin was happier than hearing him praise her. She said, "Uncle, Grandma can't open a restaurant. It's very tiring."
Du Juan glanced at Jin Xin proudly. What she meant was, "Look, the person I chose is such a good person."
Grandma had always been grateful that Du Juan took Grandma in. For a simple grandmother like her, being able to repay her kindness gave her peace of mind.
Therefore, Grandma kept persuading Jin Xin and Du Juan to eat the eight big bowls she had made. She did not use her chopsticks to help the two of them. She knew that some people in the city did not like to be too enthusiastic.
Jin Xin glanced at the first floor. The originally dilapidated first floor had become clean and tidy under Ye Tianxin's tidying.
Ye Tianxin moved a few pots of flowers and placed them in various corners of the room. Under the illumination of the lights, the flowers seemed even more vibrant.
"Tianxin, what are your plans for the future?" Jin Xin asked.
"Capital University," Ye Tianxin replied sweetly.
Capital University?
Jin Xin was stunned for a moment. He looked at Du Juan and suddenly had some doubts about Du Juan's suggestion. If Ye Tianxin was really someone who wanted to get into Capital University, would they still want her to star in the movie?
"Do you have a major that you like?"
At first, Ye Tianxin only wanted to get into Capital University. She did not think about a major, mainly because her grades did not allow her to pick and choose a major. However, when Jin Xin asked, Ye Tianxin suddenly thought of a person she had seen on television. She felt that if she had the chance, it would be an excellent choice for her to take up this job.
"I want to be a diplomat."
Ye Tianxin imagined that one day, she would stand in front of a press conference and represent the Hua Nation. She would answer questions about the Hua Nation. She would quote from the classics calmly and generously.
