Steamed Buns

  Tian Mu Chun is a very simple farmer, whatever good food there is, she will always remember her granddaughter first.

  In this era, prices are not high, things are also very real, a steamed bun is as big as an adult's palm, just looking at it makes people happy.

  "How to divide?" Tian Ma Chun asked with a smile.

  "Divide it into four portions, one for Grandpa, one for Jiabao, one for me, and one for LuLu. How about that?" Tianyuan replied with a serious face but also with a hint of childishness, "This way, we can all eat!"

  "Grandpa has eaten and won't eat anymore. You all eat, I'll go call Jia Bao for you. But we have to tell Jia Bao not to tell anyone else. Mei Mei and Jia Duan don't know about it. If Grandpa finds out, he will scold us." Tian Mao Chun closed the door and went to find Tian Jia Bao. At this time, the boy couldn't stay in the house anymore and must have gone to play with others again.

  "Sister, Grandpa is so good to us! You see Grandma being biased, but Grandpa treats us well. We get to eat mantou, and Mei Mei doesn't have any! I like Grandpa, not Grandma. When I grow up and earn money, I want to buy lots of mantou for Grandpa to eat, so he can eat mantou every day!" Tian Lu was very happy, staring at the mantou left by Tian Mao Chun with watering mouth, but still waiting quietly for Tian Jia Bao to come over, not making a fuss about eating immediately.

  Listening to Tian Lu's words, Tian Wan couldn't help but laugh lightly. As time passed, China's economic development took off rapidly. Later on, not only mantou (steamed buns), but even meat-filled baozi became a common breakfast food for villagers. By the time Tian Lu grew up, mantou was no longer a rare treat.

  However, at this moment, Mantou is the most precious thing in Tiantian's heart. Because she likes Grandpa, so she wants to give her most precious thing to Grandpa. Tianyuan understands and knows this feeling.

  Because she also thinks so, she also hopes that one day she can give her grandfather the best of everything, food and clothing, housing and transportation, and let her grandfather enjoy his later years.

  Tian Jia Bao followed Tian Mao Chun to the two sisters' room. Although he didn't know why Grandpa wanted to bring him to his sister's room, he was usually obedient and didn't ask much or make a fuss.

  "Sister!" As soon as they entered the house, Tian Jia Bao slid down from Tian Mao Chun's arms and rushed towards Tian Yuan. The little meatball was most fond of this big sister.

  Tian Jia Bao's nose was keen and he smelled the sweet aroma of red sugar buns. He immediately let go of Tian Yuan and looked in the direction of the buns, very excited. "Sister, it's buns!"

  "Yes, Grandpa bought it, it's a family treasure. If you want to eat it, you have to promise your sister not to tell anyone! Nobody can know, this is our secret with Grandpa! Will you do that?" Tian Yuan smiled and nodded, hugging Tian Jia Bao in her arms, but unfortunately she was only ten years old and didn't have the strength to hold him tight.

  "Grandpa!" Tian Jia Bao nodded and walked towards Tian Mao Chun, stretching out his small thumb to hook onto Tian Mao Chun's finger, reciting "Pulling hooks and hanging, for a hundred years one cannot deceive people, deceiving people will turn you into a little dog woof woof woof!"

  Although Tian Jia Bao's actions were childish, they amused a whole room of people.

  Tian Wan divided the red sugar buns into four equal parts and first handed them to Tian Jia Bao. Tian Jia Bao happily accepted them without complaining about the quantity, and obediently sat on the ground eating one by one. Then he leaned against Tian Lu's body, and the two siblings laughed and played together.
