A Fairy Restaurant opened next to University Town!
The boss and boss lady looked like they were fairies!
The food at their restaurant tasted heavenly!
The news quickly spread to the ears of the middle schoolers. They loved coming here in the mornings to eat a few buns and drink a bowl of porridge, listening to the boss lady's gentle greetings.
Sometimes the boss would frown, but when he saw the pregnant boss lady, the storm clouds on his face would part.
Wang Dong came to eat breakfast as usual today, and suddenly noticed the decor of the little shop had changed.
On the floor was an iron bucket as tall as a grown man's waist. Next to the table were two large pots.
Curious, he asked Ding Sha, "Sister Sha Sha, what's this? A new item?"
Ding Sha lifted the lid to show him the white, hot, tender douhua that would break with the slightest poke.
The bursting aroma of beans made people revert to their most primal desires.
And that was to eat.
This was actually a clever idea Ding Sha had come up with.
Seeing the two pots, Wang Dong suddenly had a strange premonition. "Sister Sha Sha, you wouldn't..."
"Ding ding!" Ding Sha lifted the lids off the two big pots.
Sure enough, one pot contained sticky, sweet red sugar water, while the other had a salty broth made from yellow flowering cabbage, wood ear mushroom, and egg.
The alternating sweet and salty scents were irresistible.
Wang Dong stared open-mouthed at the two pots. After a long pause, he wailed, "Sister Sha Sha! How could you!!"
Ding Sha laughed heartily. "Which flavor do you want?"
Wang Dong agonized over it for a long time. "Give me a bowl of the salty one!"
In fact, ever since he was little, he had only eaten sweet douhua, always looking down on the salty kind with disdain.
But this time was different. He had a strange trust in this little shop's cooking skills.
After staring at the douhua for a bit, Wang Dong had a solemn and desolate expression as he resolutely picked up a spoon and scooped a small bite into his mouth.
He chewed with a grave look on his face.
Huh?
It was delicious!
Wang Dong couldn't help scooping up a few more spoonfuls. The broth was salty and smooth, the douhua tender and aromatic.
Wang Dong confirmed that salty douhua was not bad at all!
In fact, it was extremely tasty!
He contentedly ate a steamed bun with the salty douhua, and many passersby who were curious about Ding Sha's eccentric idea also stopped to take a look.
After all, you had to try it yourself before you could righteously argue about it!
Two young girls chose the two different flavors. After eating their fill satisfyingly, they started to bicker.
"Sweet douhua is the best! It's too delicious!"
"Pah! Salty douhua is the most fragrant! Don't you have any taste?"
"You're the one without taste! You don't even know how to appreciate the beauty of sweet douhua!"
Ding Sha smiled as she carried over two bowls of douhua.
"Why not try the flavor you each like first?" She set down the bowls. "Only after tasting what the other person likes can you understand how they feel, right?"
The girls froze for a moment, blinking their eyes, but quieted down.
They took small sips from each other's bowls of douhua, eyes lighting up in surprise. "It's...not as bad as I imagined..."
The other girl clearly felt the same. After drinking two more mouthfuls, she bashfully apologized, "Sorry Xiaoxiao, I shouldn't have said you don't have any taste..."
"I was wrong too..."
The two girls held hands as they happily went off to school after paying.
Wang Dong beside them couldn't help but stare wide-eyed.
A thought struck him. If only his parents could understand each other like this too...
Xiao Jun walked over from the back yard, pouring a large basin of freshly cooked salty broth into the pot. "Hungry?"
Ding Sha shook her head. "Not hungry at all."
Lately Ding Sha had entered a period of crazy morning sickness. She threw up anything she ate, and even if she didn't eat she still threw up.
In just a few days, all the weight she had previously gained was lost.
Seeing this, Xiao Jun felt heartache. He was always trying new ways to make delicious food to nourish her.
The breakfast crowd slowly dispersed. Ding Sha sat on a recliner playing on her phone.
Suddenly she saw a video that made her start drooling from craving.
"What's up?" Xiao Jun walked over carrying a large bunch of flower seedlings.
"Can you make this?" Ding Sha hurriedly showed him her phone.
Xiao Jun put down the seedlings and wiped his hands with a towel before bending over to look. "You want to eat it? Spicy pickled tomatoes?"
"I want it!"
