The next morning, dawn hadn't yet broken, and Tang Xiaowan was sleeping soundly when the clanging and banging from the kitchen woke her up.
"Hey, Meijuan, what are you up to now?"
She got up with bed hair and went downstairs to the kitchen, only to be astonished by what she saw.
"Granny Yu!"
"Oh, miss, you're up early!"
"Not really, you woke me up. When did you get here? I had no idea. I thought it was Meijuan."
"Last night, Old Li dragged me over, worried you wouldn't eat well."
"You're quite well-informed!"
Tang Xiaowan stuck out her tongue and made a funny face at Granny Yu, then casually grabbed a freshly fried meat pastry and put it in her mouth.
"Be careful, it's hot. What's the rush?"
"It tastes better when it's hot, hehe."
"The lean meat porridge should be ready soon. Go wash your face. Since you're up, let's eat early."
"Oh, is there anything else?"
"You little glutton, there is. Hurry up."
