After finishing the bath, it was already noon.
Bai Qi found a nearby inn and had a boxed meal with Xiaotou, feeling utterly relaxed.
The name sounds refined; but it's actually braised elbows, pig stomach, and pig liver from the cooked meat shop, wrapped in large flatbreads. The more exquisite ones have smoked duck and chicken sliced thinly, paired with shredded scallions to cut the grease.
Because it's packed in boxes and delivered to one's door, it's called a "boxed meal."
"The wealthy live comfortably, snuggling indoors by the stove eating takeout in the cold weather."
Bai Qi wiped his mouth; the food box design of this shop was quite clever, named "warm plate."
It was two-layered, made of porcelain, with a hollow middle. Hot water is poured into the space during use, keeping the food warm, still hot when eaten.
