Su Yan stood at the door and smiled: "Master called you."
Chu Yan stroked Su Yan's hair, took her hand and entered the room.
Mrs. Zhong asked the four of them to stay in the room, and she went out for a while. After a while, she brought back a bunch of dumpling stuff and put the dough on the table. Mrs. Zhong said to Chu Yan and Xia Mochu: "Sit down, both of you, we haven't got lunch yet, so you two are here, so make some dumplings for us." After speaking, Mrs. Zhong looked at Zhong Ning and Su Yan who were standing aside again, and said: "Just do what you two should do, don't make trouble here."
Seeing Mrs. Zhong's posture, Su Yan knew what her master was going to do. Her three senior brothers were all taught by her master to go from the hall to the kitchen, and they were all more virtuous than women.
Su Yan glanced at Chu Yan with a smile, gave him a self-seeking look, took Zhong Ning's hand and went to Zhong Ning's room.
After sending those two maids away, Mrs. Zhong said to her two sons-in-law: "Sit down."
Chu Yan and Xia Mochu sat down, glanced at the things in front of them, and looked at each other in blank dismay.
Mrs. Zhong knocked on the noodle table with her rolling pin: "What are you doing in a daze? Making dumplings."
Chu Yan cleaned his hands, his expression was cold, but he picked up a dumpling wrapper in a dignified manner, and put a spoonful of meat filling on the dumpling wrapper. As soon as he pinched one side, the dumpling filling ran away from the other side Going out, Chu Yan frowned, and stuffed the stuffing back with chopsticks.
"Mother, this..." Xia Mochu poked a hole in the dumpling wrapper as soon as he picked it up. Somewhat at a loss, he put the holed dumpling wrapper on the noodle table and smiled at Mrs. Zhong: "Why don't you teach us?" Bar."
Seeing the actions of Chu Yan and Xia Mochu, Mrs. Zhong frowned: "Have you ever cooked before?"
Both Chu Yan and Xia Mochu shook their heads.
The ancients taught that a gentleman is far away from the kitchen. Where have these children of aristocratic families ever been in the kitchen
Mrs. Zhong picked up a dumpling wrapper casually, scooped up the stuffing and said, "There are two people in the house. Although you have maids to serve you, you still need to learn to share for the other half, whether it's big or trivial."
While talking, Mrs. Zhong briefly demonstrated how to make dumplings for Chu Yan and Xia Mochu, and then threw the two people in the room to let them fend for themselves. Before leaving, Mrs. Zhong left a sentence: " When are you packing and when are you going to have lunch?"
Looking at the dumpling wrappers stacked high and a large pot of minced meat, Xia Mochu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looked at Chu Yan and asked, "My mother, is it true?"
Chu Yan nodded, knowing in his heart that Mrs. Zhong was teaching the two of them to be nice to their wives by making dumplings.
"Go to work, or you won't even have lunch in a while."
Chu Yan put the dumpling wrapper in the palm of his hand, scooped a spoonful of stuffing and put it on the dough wrapper, recalling Mrs. Zhong's movements to pinch the dough wrapper. It looked very simple, but Chu Yan realized that the dumpling was easy to make when he started. However, it is not easy to want a good-looking bag.
Seeing how seriously Chu Yan wrapped it, Xia Mochu made up his mind not to lose to Chu Yan in front of his future mother-in-law, so he picked up a dumpling wrapper and began to fight it.
At noon, Mrs. Zhong stepped on the spot to check the acceptance. Looking at it, Chu Yan and Xia Mochu were both covered with noodles, and each of them was holding a dumpling in his hand and closing their mouths carefully. Then they looked at the dumplings on the noodle table. A strange shape, but fortunately it can be seen that it is a dumpling.
Originally, Mrs. Zhong didn't really want them to pack well. Seeing that the two of them performed well, she nodded in satisfaction: "You two pack up and go to the dining room to prepare for dinner."
Mrs. Zhong took away the dumplings made by the two of them, and Xia Mochu heaved a sigh of relief. His wife hasn't married yet, so it is very important to please the mother-in-law now.
Chu Yan got up and patted the flour on his body, and looked at Xia Mochu, who seemed to be amnesty, and felt a little funny in his heart. If he told others that Chu Yan and Xia Mochu had made dumplings in the house all morning, no one would be there. will believe.
In the dining room, Mrs. Zhong had already prepared a table of meals.
Chu Yan and Xia Mochu made a lot of dumplings, but most of them leaked out of the pot. Mrs. Zhong didn't care whether they looked good or not, she picked them up and put them on a plate before bringing them in: "The dishes are all ready."
Su Yan looked at the "dumplings" on the plate and couldn't help laughing, and asked Chu Yan who was sitting beside her: "Which one did you make?"
Chu Yan looked at the plate, picked one up and put it in Su Yan's bowl: "This."
Su Yan adjusted the dipping material and took a bite. The skin and stuffing were made by Mrs. Zhong, so it wouldn't taste bad. Su Yan swallowed the dumpling: "It's delicious." Bite the remaining half and feed it to Chu Yan's mouth: "Try it."
Xia Mochu took the initiative to pick a self-made one on the plate, Zhong Ning thought it was ugly and refused to eat it, Xia Mochu coaxed Zhong Ning to take a bite.
Looking at the four children, Mrs. Zhong had a happy smile on her face. She has been in the rivers and lakes for more than 20 years, and she has a very good eye for people. She knows that these two uncles are worth entrusting for life.
After eating a few mouthfuls, Mrs. Zhong said that she was full, and gave up the space to the four young people, lest she get in the way here and the children would not be able to let go.
Listening to Zhong Ning's shout inside, Mrs. Zhong walked on the snow without her shoe uppers, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
When she was as old as Zhong Ning and Su Yan, she met the man who made her heart flutter. At that time, all she wanted was to be a couple forever, but with his identity, it couldn't be realized at all. At that time, she naively thought that he would give up everything for her like in idol dramas and romance novels. She thought Wander the world with him.
But all imaginations are beautiful, when the reality hit, he bowed his head.
Relying on his so-called feelings for her self-righteously, she refused to let go, and finally even threatened with the child in her womb. She thought he would come after him, she thought she was unique to him, she thought he What she missed was just a moment.
But in the end, what he and she missed was a lifetime.
She is a lesson from the past, so she doesn't want to meddle in the children's affairs. In this feudal and ignorant society, women are already at a disadvantage. It is Su Yan and Zhong Ning's luck to meet their own happiness.
In the room, while listening to Xia Mochu's nonsense, Chu Yan quietly wrapped his arms around Su Yan's slender waist, and Su Yan leaned into Chu Yan's arms.
Xia Mochu felt envious, and quietly touched Zhong Ning's little hand under the table. Then, there was a howl like a pig being killed in the room, which scared Taosu in the next room to explode.
