"Mom, Mom, what's for breakfast today? Wow, so many pastries!" Su Li's eyes lit up as he looked at the table full of pastries, neatly packed in banana leaves. He looked at his mom with curiosity.
There were only two types of pastries, one with a caramel color and the other pure white, resembling fermented cakes, each cut into thick triangular pieces. On top of them were golden osmanthus flowers, making them look both tempting in appearance and aroma.
Gu Zi tore a piece of banana leaf and turned it into a small box, placing the fermented cakes one by one inside. Two pieces of fermented cakes went into each box, and the boxes were placed in a steamer.
Gu Zi worked swiftly, and she could see that one big steamer was about to be filled up.
She explained, "Today, Lele and I are going to the market to set up a stall. These are for the stall. Your breakfast and lunch boxes are in the kitchen."
