The place where Jian Hedong lived was not very near to Jian Si, yet not too far either; there was a direct bus service, and it was also reachable by electric bike.
Jian Hedong's house was one of those single-story houses with a cement roof. In this area, many people lived in such houses, forming a dense, dark mass at a glance.
The government had planned to demolish and renovate this area many years ago, but due to funding issues, the plan had not been formally implemented. Most of the inhabitants here were renters, with cheap rent being cost-effective.
In Jian Hedong's backyard were several fruit trees, and it was now the season for apricots to ripen. Not long ago, he had brought a big bag of apricots for the brother and sister.
Upon entering, Jian Si immediately smelled the delicious scent of frying oil, thinly sliced fish fillets rolling in hot oil, melting in the mouth. Jian Hedong, who came from a chef's background, was best at cooking fish.
