Before long, Liu Sisi braved the cold wind and returned with piping hot dumplings.
A big bowl of rich dumplings.
"Aunt Xiao, here are your dumplings," Liu Sisi hurriedly said.
"Hmm!" Mother Xiao nodded and asked, "Girl, how much do these dumplings cost? I'll pay you."
"Auntie, this is my treat," Liu Sisi said sweetly, "How much could a serving of dumplings possibly cost?"
"That won't do, earning money isn't easy," Aunt Xiao seriously said.
"If you give me money, I'll just leave," Liu Sisi protested hastily.
Seeing her determined attitude, Aunt Xiao could no longer insist and had to retract her hand that was reaching for money. The dumplings were delicious, and Mother Xiao hadn't eaten dinner the night before and had expended a lot of energy, so her stomach was already empty. Thus, she devoured the dumplings, clearing a large bowl in one go.
Liu Sisi was stunned, "Aunt Xiao, are you full? If not, I... I'll go buy another serving for you!"
