Qin Mei didn't try it. The moment Jing Qi brought the dish in, she smelled the vinegar. Jing Qi loved sour food, but Qin Mei didn't. She preferred spicy.
"I'm full." Qin Mei put down her bowl and chopsticks and said to Mrs. Xie and Jing Qi, "Mom, Jing Qi, you two take your time."
Jing Qi didn't insist. On a hot day like this, no one had much of an appetite anyway. She had intentionally added a lot of vinegar to make it sour and whet the appetite.
A bite of congee with a bite of sour cucumber tasted wonderful.
Listening to the crisp CRUNCH as Jing Qi chewed on the cucumber, Qin Mei couldn't help but swallow. It smelled so sour that her mouth watered. Jing Qi truly wasn't afraid of sour flavors.
