"You can't hold it steady." Jiang Xia listened to Lu Yuanting's words and looked at him in confusion. She actually wanted to watch the fun, but she thought that Lu Yuanting's shoulders might be a little sore, and he probably hadn't eaten when he went to pick her up, so he had no strength left.

Watching a play is not important, but you can't let your partner go hungry.

"..." Lu Yuanting's face turned wooden as he listened to Jiang Xia's words. After a few seconds of silence, he added another sentence.

"It was just an illusion just now. Now I feel like I can hold it steady again."

Jiang Xia did not hear the second half of Lu Yuanting's words. When she entered the house, she did not see Su Yuelan. Su Yuelan should have gone to rest. Instead, Zhao Hexiang was still in the living room, knitting embroidery slippers with beautiful stitches.

"Grandma, is there any food at home?" Jiang Xia asked Zhao Hexiang.

"Xiao Lu hasn't eaten either, so that might not be enough. How about I make some dumplings for you? The skins are ready, I just need to stir the meat filling. Wait for me to wrap them and cook a few for you to eat." When Zhao Hexiang saw Jiang Xia and Lu Yuanting coming in, she quickly stood up.

"I'll do it, you sit down." Jiang Xia saw that Zhao Hexiang was about to get up, so he asked Zhao Hexiang to sit down.

"Or..." Zhao Hexiang looked at Jiang Xia who was eager to try, thinking that her granddaughter had rarely been in the kitchen since she was a child. Oh, there was one time when she suddenly wanted to learn how to cook when she was a child. After fiddling with it for half an hour, she made a dish of food that looked unrecognizable and burned her hands.

After that, they were reluctant to let Jiang Xia go to the kitchen again, for fear that she might get bumped.

"Grandma, Xia Xia and I will come together." Lu Yuanting looked at Jiang Xia who seemed eager to try, and walked up to Zhao Hexiang and spoke.

Looking at Lu Yuanting, Zhao Hexiang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Little Lu was a down-to-earth and steady man.

"The meat is in the kitchen. It's fresh. Add some fat to it and it will taste delicious when chopped." Zhao Hexiang reminded her and then went back to the room, leaving the space to Jiang Xia and Lu Yuanting.

Jiang Xia listened and nodded, then turned to look at Lu Yuanting.

"Then I'll be looking forward to the cooking skills of our comrade Jiang Xia. Tell me, how does Comrade Xia Xia want me to help?" Lu Yuanting stood behind Jiang Xia, put his coat on the sofa neatly, folded up the sleeves of his shirt, and walked into the kitchen.

He tied the apron around himself without permission. Lu Yuanting had a slim figure and he always maintained a good figure. The apron seemed a little small on him, which made his broad shoulders and narrow waist look more prominent. Compared with his usual cold command and training image in the army, he looked a little gentler.

It doesn't look out of place in the kitchen at all.

"Comrade Xia Xia?" Lu Yuanting folded his cuffs and pulled his shirt into his waistband, revealing his mermaid line in front of Jiang Xia.

"Well, the task of removing the fat is left to you." Jiang Xia moved his eyes and pretended that he had not seen anything just now. In his heart, he felt a little emotional. How come Lu Yuanting maintained such a slim figure without any extra fat?

"Yes, sir." Lu Yuanting retracted his gaze and smiled, then started to wash the pork in the kitchen. He then chopped it into minced meat according to the proportions on the chopping board. This job was delicate and laborious, but it was easy for him.

Jiang Xia looked around and finally chose to pick a few pieces of radish, wash them, and make radish and pork dumplings later.
