Yu Xiaolian ultimately couldn't win over Zhao Erya and ended up sleeping on the bed, but she called Sanyan to join her.
When Yu Xiaolian got up the next day, she sneaked a peek at her watch; it was already six in the morning.
They had finished all the steamed buns and dumplings yesterday, so the family had wontons at a stall in the town for breakfast today.
Yu Xiaolian found that ancient people really had big appetites; they finished so many buns and dumplings in just two meals.
Knowing one bowl of wontons wouldn't be enough, Ms. Sun asked Yu Xiaolian to buy twenty more buns from the neighboring stall—two vegetable buns for three coins and two meat buns for five coins.
The prices have gone up! She remembered vegetable buns used to be one coin each, and meat buns two coins each.
Yu Xiaolian bought ten vegetable buns and ten meat buns, handed one silver coin to the bun seller, and got twenty coins in change.
"Here come the hot buns!"
