When Qin Huai and Ouyang returned home, it was not yet 6 o'clock.
Qin Huai planned to first try the Four Happiness glutinous rice balls, which sounded simpler by name.
Qin Huai knew how to make glutinous rice balls.
He could not only make glutinous rice balls but also Lantern Festival dumplings. Glutinous rice balls are a must-eat snack for the Qin Family on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Regardless of how much or how little is eaten, a bowl of glutinous rice balls must be eaten before dinner, usually with sesame filling.
There was a period when fruit glutinous rice balls became very popular in Qiu County. Qin Huai tried making them a few times. Perhaps due to incorrect formulas, the taste wasn't ideal; the Qin Family moved back to sesame-filled glutinous rice balls after trying the fruit ones a few times.
