Chapter 625 Go to Su’s house to make dumplings together
When Xie Shuting arrived at Su's house, Hua Wenli was helping Bai Lu make dumplings.
"Aunt Bai, the dumplings you made are so beautiful," she said, "the dumplings I made were so ugly..."
"In the end, it's all eaten in the stomach. It doesn't matter whether it's good or not, as long as it's wrapped tightly and the fillings won't be exposed."
Jinbao knelt on the chair and joined the process of making dumplings. The dumplings he made looked like a small ingot.
"Look at the dumplings Jin Bao made," Su Xiaosi pointed at the dumplings Jin Bao had just made and praised, "They are so cute!"
Bai Luxiao asked: "Jinbao, who taught you this?"
"I packed it randomly."
Su Wennian's method of making dumplings is exactly the same as his mother's, very delicate crescent shape. Su Nanbing on the side is obviously not good at making dumplings. The fillings are either too much or too little, and several of them are almost bursting with fillings.
They looked at the dumplings made by Jinbao, with smiles on their faces, thinking that their sister was really awesome.
"Jin Bao, the dumplings you make can be sold in restaurants," Su Nanbing said. "They look like gold ingots, and they have a good meaning."
Su Xiaowu, who was watching his father chop pig bones in the kitchen, heard what they were talking about and curiously went aside to look at it, "Wow! This is the first time I have seen such dumplings. They are round...Jinbao, how are they made?"
Yeah? You can teach me."
"It's very simple," Jinbao demonstrated, "Don't put too much filling, just pinch it like this...and then like this..."
She quickly finished wrapping one, reached for the dumpling wrapper, and handed it to her fifth brother, "Try it."
"Wait, I'm going to wash my hands first." Su Xiaowu said and turned around to go to the kitchen.
Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he saw Xie Shuting standing outside the door.
"Why are you here again?" Su Xiaowu frowned, "Didn't my third brother make it clear to you?"
For a moment, everyone's eyes turned to Xie Shuting who was standing by the door. Hua Wenli almost subconsciously approached her, "Shuting..."
"I want to have New Year's Eve dinner with you," Xie Shuting pursed her lips and asked, "Is that okay?"
After saying that, fearing that the Su family would disagree, she immediately added: "Although Captain Luo treats me well, Aqiang's mother doesn't like me, and his grandparents also have strong opinions on me and feel that I occupy one of them."
room, and always eat their food.
I don’t want to annoy them on New Year’s Eve, so I want to come and spend New Year’s Eve with you..."
If it hadn't happened in the afternoon, Bai Lu would have agreed directly, but something so embarrassing had happened before, and she felt that Wennian might feel uncomfortable if Shuting spent New Year's Eve with them.
"Shu Ting, it's not that I want to reject you, but you and Wennian..." Bai Lu said as tactfully as possible, "How about you go spend New Year's Eve with other educated youths? Okay? This is also good for you."
"Aunt Bai, don't worry, I'm not here to make Wennian unhappy.
I admit that I like Wennian, and I confessed my love to him today. Because he rejected me, I squatted at the entrance of the village and cried all afternoon. But I came to you for New Year's Eve dinner. It has nothing to do with Wennian. I just think I like you very much.
,real!
My family used to have a lively New Year's Eve. My parents would prepare my favorite soup, and uncles and aunts from other neighbors would usually bring a small plate of their own food to my house. I would also deliver food to them everywhere in the evening.
You can eat a variety of dishes...
After the New Year's Eve dinner, the adults and children in our family home set off firecrackers together, which was very lively and interesting.
I don’t have any family around me this year, but the feeling of your family getting along often reminds me of my parents and grandfather.
When Wen Nian is not here, I always like to go to your house. In fact, I really like you. Anyway, I want to say, if you don’t mind, can you let me spend New Year’s Eve with you? Otherwise, I will definitely
I miss home so much...
Today I was rejected by Wen Nian and my eyes were swollen from crying. I don’t want to cry again because I miss my parents at night.”
Xie Shuting said a lot of words in one breath, which made everyone in the room a little confused.
Jin Bao thinks this Xie Shuting is quite admirable in some aspects.
If it were an ordinary girl who was rejected, she would definitely hide away for a long time and never dare to see the boy again. But it was better for her. She even told the story of how she went to the village entrance to cry in the afternoon. She didn't hide it or not, and she didn't worry about embarrassment or loss.
"This..." Bai Lu turned to look at Wennian and asked hesitantly, "Wennian, what do you think?"
"I don't care, mom, you decide." Su Wennian said.
Seeing him showing such indifference, Xie Shuting's nose felt a little sore again. She endured the discomfort in her heart and looked at Bai Lu again, expecting her answer.
"Since Wennian doesn't object, then you can stay." Bai Lu agreed.
Most of the sadness in Xie Shuting's heart dissipated, and she said happily: "Aunt Bai, thank you!"
"Why are you thanking me? New Year's Eve dinner is only fun when there are more people eating it together. You all used to spend it with your parents. If you don't have family around this year, you will definitely miss home," Bai Lu said with a smile, "Tonight is New Year's Eve.
You can sleep with Wen Li."
Hua Wenli immediately answered: "Yes, Shuting, if you don't mind, why don't we sleep together tonight?"
"That's great," Xie Shuting hugged Hua Wenli happily, "I won't be alone tonight."
After saying that, she happily washed her hands and then helped make dumplings together.
Jinbao saw that she had such an arrogant personality and looked like the type who was usually spoiled by her parents. He guessed that she didn't know how to do housework. He didn't expect that the dumplings she made were quite pretty and were shaped like willow leaves.
Su Xiaosi noticed that the dumplings she made were the most complex in shape, and said in a puzzled tone: "Hey, didn't you say that you southerners don't usually eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year? I think the dumplings you made are quite decent."
"My family usually doesn't eat dumplings, but my grandma would make this kind of steamed dumplings when she was still alive." When mentioning her grandma, Xie Shuting couldn't stop praising her grandma for how good she was at running a household. All the clothes she had when she was a child were made by her grandma.
While making dumplings, Xie Shuting said: "My grandma is a very traditional woman. She believes that capable women marry well, so during the years I stayed with her, she taught me many things, including cooking and sewing.
, button up..."
"Shu Ting, you are much more capable than me," Hua Wenli said. "I have never done any housework before. Can you teach me how to do it in the future?"
"Okay, as long as you don't mind the trouble and give up halfway, I hate doing things halfway!"
Hua Wenli hurriedly said: "I promise, if I learn from you, I will stick to it to the end."
Everyone was chatting and making dumplings. Within half an hour, all the dumpling wrappers were used up.
"Okay, that's enough," Bai Lu said, seeing the bamboo steaming grate filled with dumplings, "enough for all of us."
Su Jianmin had already boiled the water, put the steaming grate in place, then closed the lid and continued to steam over high heat.
When the dumplings were just coming out of the oven, Luo Zhongqiang's voice sounded outside the door, "Uncle Su, Jinbao... I fried some small yellow croaker for this year's New Year's Eve dinner. My dad asked me to bring it over for you to try."
