Mu Shaoling prepared the fillings, while Nian Mu kneaded the dough and prepared the dumpling wrappers.
The division of labor and cooperation between the two were quick.
With a mobile phone in his hand, Zhan Zhan stood at the door of the kitchen under the urging of his younger siblings, and recorded this warm scene.
After filming, he tiptoed away and sat back on the sofa in the living room.
Taotao excitedly asked: "Brother, did you get the picture?"
Ruan Ruan took Zhan Zhan's mobile phone, "Brother is doing business, I must have captured it, let me see."
As she said that, she opened the phone's photo album, and the latest video was the situation in the kitchen.
Taotao sighed: "Dad actually cooks, how amazing..."
"That's not the point, the point is, father and mother... my sister is too good for each other!" Ruan Ruan looked at the phone with envy.
Will she meet such a suitable person when she grows up?
Ruan Ruan looked at Zhan Zhan, and handed the phone in front of him, "Brother, do you think so?"
"They were originally a couple." Zhan Zhan said without their fuss.
"Brother, are you the legendary straight man?" He held his chin softly, looking at the cool Zhan Zhan.
Zhan Zhan heard the words and put away the phone.
Ruan Ruan said again: "Brother, I want this video, you send it to me."
"No." Zhan Zhan said, remembering what she said just now that she was a straight man.
"Brother, don't be so stingy, let me just say, my brother has such a high IQ, how could he be a straight man?" Ruan Ruan boasted.
Taotao said contemptuously at the side: "Sister, what you said is true or false."
"Do you want a video?" Ruan Ruan glared at him.
Taotao nodded, he wanted it.
"Then praise brother!" Ruan Ruan smiled and looked at Zhan Zhan.
Taotao understood, and quickly boasted: "Brother, you are really amazing!"
Zhan Zhan was left speechless by the siblings, his little face flushed slightly, and he asked, "Have you said enough?"
"Brother~" Seeing Ruan Ruan, she acted coquettishly.
Zhan Zhan picked up his phone and sent her the video.
Ruan Ruan held the phone, watched the video twice, and smiled contentedly.
"Don't let father and sister know." Zhan Zhan said, if they knew that he was forced to secretly take pictures, he would lose face.
"Promise not to tell!" Ruan Ruan assured him.
Taotao also promised: "I won't say anything, brother, don't worry."
"Don't say anything?" As soon as Taotao finished speaking, Nianmu came out of the kitchen and listened to the child's words.
Taotao was taken aback, turned around, and shook her head with a smile, "Sister, I didn't say anything."
"The kid has grown up and has his own secret." Nian Mu said with a sigh.
"Hee hee." Tao Tao still didn't say anything, but turned around and blinked at Zhan Zhan and Ruan Ruan.
After the dumplings were ready, Mu Shaoling helped to carry them on the dining table.
Taotao smelled the aroma of the dumplings, and happily ran to the dining table, her eyes were very greedy, "It's so delicious."
"Sit down and get ready to eat dumplings." Mu Shaoling said. He also helped with the dumplings this time. It was a rare time to cook, and he wanted the children to comment on it. Although he only did some trivial work, the important work was all Nianmu did it.
"Okay, Dad." The three children sat obediently on the chairs, waiting for Mu Shaoling to fill them with dumplings.
Nianmu brought out a bowl of hot seaweed soup from the kitchen, and said, "I saw that only the dumplings were a little simpler, so I made a seaweed soup."
"That's great, sister, how did you know I wanted to drink wakame soup?" Taotao said with a smile.
"Sister and you have a heart-to-heart connection." Ruan Ruan took a bite of the dumpling and said with satisfaction, "It's delicious, sister, teach me how to make dumplings in the future."
"No problem, as long as you want to learn." Although Nianmu felt that the child was too young to learn these things, she wanted to learn, so naturally it would not dampen her interest.
"Okay!" smiled softly, took a sip of the wakame soup, "I want to learn all my sister's crafts!"
"Sure, Ruan Ruan is so smart, he must learn it quickly." Nian Mu affirmed.
Her children will naturally inherit her talent for cooking.
He nodded softly, confident in himself.
Seeing this, Mu Shaoling asked again: "Have you packed up all the things you need to spend the night with?"
"Dad, don't you have clothes in the old house? Why clean it up?" Taotao was puzzled.
"Stupid brother, we must wear the new clothes that my sister bought us for the New Year, and there are none in the old house." Zhan Zhan reminded.
Taotao patted the table and said, "That's right, I haven't packed it yet!"
With that said, he stood up to clean up.
Nian Mu said, "It's not too late to clean up after eating."
"Yeah, brother, don't worry, Dad won't leave you alone." Ruan Ruan also said.
Taotao looked at Mu Shaoling, smiled and said: "If Dad leaves me and lets me stay in the old house, then I will accompany my sister to celebrate the new year."
"Your great-grandfather personally called the roll and wants you to go back." Mu Shaoling took a bite of the dumplings. The dumplings he made by himself are much more delicious than the ones outside. The skin is thinner and the meat is thicker, with more juice.
"Ah, alright, then I'll pack up and go to accompany Grandpa." Taotao said.
As the youngest child of the Mu family, Taotao has always been deeply in love with Mr. Mu.
After eating the dumplings, Nianmu went to Taotao's bedroom and helped him pack a new set of clothes and new pajamas. He could put on new pajamas when he was watching the new year at the old house tonight, and waited for the next day You can change into new clothes.
She put the new clothes and new shoes into Taotao's small schoolbag, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
She also wants to watch the New Year's Eve with the children, but the current situation is special...
Nianmu zipped up the small schoolbag, a little sad.
For so many years, she only had one time, and it was a happy reunion year with Mu Shaoling and her children.
In the following New Year, either he has a situation, or she has a situation.
"It's packed?" Mu Shaoling's voice came from the door.
Nianmu came back to his senses, walked to the door with his small schoolbag, and said with a smile, "It's packed, here you are."
Mu Shaoling took the small schoolbag, looked at her and asked again: "Are you really not going there?"
"What did I do in the past, and Ms. Cai didn't welcome me, so I'll stay here. Anyway, you will come back after the New Year's dinner." Nian Mu said.
"I have already made an agreement with the children that I will come back on the first day of the Chinese New Year instead of eating the New Year's Eve dinner." Mu Shaoling said, they don't want Nian Mu to be alone here, so they plan to have a meal on the first day of the New Year. Come back after breakfast.
"Come back so soon, the old man will not be happy..." Nian Mu was worried, what the old man longed for most was reunion.
"I will take him over at that time. If he doesn't want to go back, I may ask you to tidy up a guest room." Mu Shaoling said, Zhang Yali is back, and she will definitely go to the old house during the Chinese New Year.
