The family noticed how many eggs Su Binglan had put into the pot. She had made a hefty serving of tomato scrambled eggs, and it smelled good. Their gazes involuntarily fell on the food. They noticed the color differed from anything they had eaten.
The fragrance whetted their appetites, too. Although it was spring, it was still chilly at night. A high flame burned at the stove and caused smoke to rise from the chimney.
The smell of food escaped the house, and it felt warm even at night. The family felt the warmth not only in their bodies but also in their hearts.
The plates in the house were big, but even so, Su Binglan could fill three large plates of tomato scrambled eggs. She had made so much that it could not fit on one plate.
Everyone looked at the bright red eggs and thought they looked stunning. Even though the family had yet to try the dish, it made them reminisce as if they had eaten it before.
Su Binglan said, “You all must be hungry. The steam buns and rice cakes are ready, too, so we can eat them with the tomato scrambled eggs. I added a little more salt so it would go better with the rice.
“You can have this dish as a staple food or a dish. If it’s a dish, add more salt, but if it’s not, you can eat it as is.”
Grandaunt Yang asked, “Is the dish sour as well?”
She had tasted the tomatoes when she first picked them. She knew they were sour, but she wondered if it would affect the taste of the scrambled eggs.
Su Binglan smiled, saying, “1 put sugar in it so it’s not too sour. Try some, madam.’
Grandaunt Yang waved and said, “No, let’s eat together. I’m sure your food will be delicious, Miss Su.’
The old woman did not want to eat without Su Binglan. Grandaunt Su knew the young lady was kind and generous. Su Binglan had helped her and taught her how to cook this dish.
The old woman did not know how to express her gratitude.
Su Binglan said, “Okay, let’s eat together. I’ll make tomato egg soup for you all tomorrow. ”
Lady Liu added, “It just so happens we can use the vegetable soup I made earlier.’
The family’s daily meals were straightforward. Even if they made vegetable soup, they would not be willing to add eggs to it.
Su Binglan smiled and said, “That’s good. We can eat steamed buns and vegetables. When we’re full, we can drink some soup.”
Su Wenxiu nodded. “That sounds perfect. The soup will warm our bodies up.”
The family usually made porridge or soup. Their stomachs would feel comfortable afterward. Lady Liu was too embarrassed to speak initially, but she sighed in relief when Su Binglan and Su Wenxiu responded.
Grandaunt Yang also felt relieved. “We still have cornbread. I wonder if we can use those.’
She was worried people like Su Binglan would not use such things and would be unable to digest them. Cornbread was not like steamed buns, after all.
Su Binglan said with a smile, “Cornbread is better with vegetables. Not everyone can make cornbread, either.”
She knew she had to use good-quality flour to make cornbread. Then, she would place them in a pot and cook them. It differed from steamed buns and required skills.
Grandaunt Yangs smile widened when she heard Su Binglan’s words. The old woman was grateful to Su Binglan and wanted to be a gracious host to her. However, Grandaunt Yang felt her things were not presentable.
Fortunately, Su Binglan did not mind.
Meanwhile, Doctor Yang felt even more emotional as she looked at Su Binglan’s reaction. She did not expect Su Binglan to be so approachable and understanding.
Su Binglan was just as Su Wenxiu had often described. Even Doctor Yang liked Su Binglan. The former felt Su Binglan had a charm that made others want to be close to her.
Since it was time to eat, everybody helped to set the table. Lady Liu brought over a few stools, and the group sat around the dining table. Su Binglan said, “Try the food before it gets cold, Madam Yang.”
Because she was in the old woman’s house, she respected her elders and offered Grandaunt Su to taste the food first. The old woman picked up her chopsticks and said, “Let’s eat, everyone,”
Everyone was stunned when they tried the tomato scrambled eggs. Lady Liu’s grandson said, “It’s not sour, Grandma. It’s so tasty.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
“I didn’t expect the slight sweetness to cover the sourness,” Su Wenxiu said, “This egg dish is so much different from what we usually eat at home.”
The eggs were not like the typical scrambled eggs he had. This one was more flavorful and had the freshness of tomato soup. When the food entered his mouth, he could smell the tomatoes.
Su Binglan looked at her brother and said, “Wenxiu, try the tomato again.”
She had made a little soup out of the tomatoes when making the dish. Therefore, everyone could even use a spoon to eat it. After tasting the soup, Su
Wenxiu instinctively exclaimed, “Wow, it’s delicious!”
He sighed in relief after eating. “Sister, this dish will be popular if we sell it in Su Teng Village. It might even become a signature dish.”
Su Binglan smiled, saying, “The cooking method is straightforward, but what matters most is the ingredients. It’s the uniqueness of tomatoes that makes it stand out. You can’t get the same flavor with other ingredients.”
Su Wenxiu nodded in agreement. “You’re right. We use plenty of vegetables when we fry eggs at home, but nothing tastes quite like this. Besides, the soup is delicious.’
Su Binglan responded, “Tomato soup, tofu soup, and noodle soup are delicious, aren’t they?”
Su Wenxiu rubbed his stomach and said, “l thought I was full, but I feel like eating again after hearing you talk about food.”
He seemed like a different person whenever he was with his sister. Su Wenxiu appeared more carefree and childish. His students back home would be shocked if they saw his reactions..
