138 Laughing
Third Brother had stolen three meat dumplings, wrapped them in leaves randomly and gone to find his wife-to-be, Yang Xiaoni.
It was a festival but Yang Xiaoni still needed to work. She was out in the mountains, chopping wood.
Normally, the bride-to-be should be resting at home, sorting her dowry and everything. She should be very busy with all that.
Unfortunately, Yang Xiaoni was not treated in this way.
But she was glad that soon, she would not need to do anything like this any more.
When Shao Sanlang found her, she was eating wild fruits in the mountains.
“Brother Sanlang!” Yang Xiaoni cheered as she saw Shao Sanlang.
Shao Sanlang looked up and saw her, laughing along the side. He rushed to her.
The two of them sneaked into the forests by default. This way they could not be discovered so easily.
The same mistake could not be made twice!
Yang Xiaoni sniffed and her eyes sparkled. “It smells so good. Third Brother, what have you brought for me?”
Shao Sanlang gazed at her proudly. “Just guess!”
Yang Xiaoni sniffed again. “Ah, it is glutinous dumplings!”
“Yes! It is made by Fifth Sister-in-law. There is pork belly and ribs filling inside. It is delicious, I have brought you three!”
“Really? I am going to have a good taste of it!” Yang Xiaoni rubbed her hands, and could not wait and took a bite when Shao Sanlang opened it for her.
The dumplings were bursting with fillings. Every bite would reach the meat.
The fragrant glutinous rice dumplings and the fragrant and soft meat of the dumplings were blended together very well. The aroma was tangy, and it was so delicious after the first bite, that one could not wait to swallow a piece of the tongue also alongside.
“It is really yummy!” Yang Xiaoni’s eyes sparkled. She was obsessed and just could not stop eating them.
Shao Sanlang felt very pleased. “What did I tell you? When you move in, you will know how well my fifth sister-in-law cooks! She is like no one else!”
Yang Xiaoni agreed and looked expectant. “I have never eaten a dumpling as good as this. Our fifth sister-in-law is so good at cooking! I wish I could move in with you directly. I will treat Fifth Sister-in-law well in the future!”
Shao Sanlang smiled. “It is happening soon! I am counting the days, only 15 days left!”
“Yes!”
They laughed at each other happily.
Satisfied by the meat dumplings, Yang Xiaoni held one in her arms and they continued to talk for some more time, before they separated at the entrance of the Yang Family.
They unwillingly waved each other goodbye.
Ms. Tian came and glared at Yang Xiaoni the moment she arrived home.
Yang Xiaoni saw that this woman was throwing temper again. She put down the chopped wood and dashed off before Ms. Tian could say a word.
She had already eaten two glutinous rice dumplings and held one in her arms for dinner, so she did not have to eat with them.
“You bitch, being lazy all the time, stupid and lazy, no food for you!”
Ms. Tian was still cursing her when she left.
Ms. Tian cursed at Yang Liang when returned.
Then she started to curse the whole Shao Family.
