Oh, dumplings, colorful dumplings.

Xu Yuehuai slapped his forehead and suddenly had an idea.

Then let's make colorful dumplings. She didn't believe that Ah Qi could resist eating them this time.

Since they are called five-color dumplings, as the name suggests, they are made with five different colored dumpling wrappers. Not only are the colors different, but each different colored dumpling also has a different flavor.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuehuai couldn't help but feel smug.

She refused to believe that Ah Qi could find any problems this time.

"Let's get started. First, let's extract the colors," she said, glancing at the fruits and vegetables on the table.

Tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, pumpkins, and beets.

Xu Yuehuai smiled, then took each of the vegetables, washed them clean, and then thoroughly pounded them into juice using a pestle.

She then took a piece of gauze and filtered the colorful juices again, obtaining pink, green, orange, yellow, and red juices.

She then brought out five large bowls, scooped out half a bowl of flour from each, added the vegetable juice, and kneaded it into dough.

She quickly kneaded five large dough balls of different colors, and then took out five plates and covered them on the large bowl to let them rise.

Next came making the fillings, and she chose five different fillings.

First, make the broth. Take Sichuan peppercorns, bay leaves, star anise, scallions, ginger, and garlic, add hot water and bring to a boil. Let it cool before using.

For the pork and scallion filling, take pork belly with a good balance of fat and lean meat, add fresh and juicy scallions, and mince both into a paste. Add seasoning water continuously during the process until the meat filling becomes sticky.

Beef and radish: Take beef tenderloin, white radish, and carrot, and mince them into a paste according to the ratio. Add water continuously during the process until the meat filling becomes sticky.

For the chive and egg filling, beat fresh eggs and set aside. Heat oil in a pan, add the eggs and stir until fragrant. Remove from the pan. Wash and finely chop the chives. Add the chives and eggs together and mix well. Add water continuously during the process until the filling becomes sticky.

For the mutton and scallion filling, take mutton with a good balance of fat and lean meat, add fresh and juicy scallions, and mince them together. Add seasoning water continuously during the process until the filling becomes sticky.

For shrimp and chives, take fresh river shrimp, peel and rinse them clean, then cut the chives into small sections. Add seasoning water continuously during the process to let them marinate.

With all the preparations complete, it was time to start wrapping. Xu Yuehuai couldn't resist taking a bite of the colorful meat filling, but the filling was still raw.

She first lit a fire on the stove so that she could cook the dumplings directly after wrapping them.

Then she took out the five kinds of dough that had just been proofed, kneaded each into long strips, divided them into small portions, rolled them into sheets, and then they were ready to be used to make dumplings.

She initially wanted all the dumplings of different colors to taste the same, but then she thought that would be too boring.

She simply packed whatever she wanted and mixed and matched it however she pleased.

Finally, the dumplings were all wrapped. Xu Yuehuai turned around and saw that the water had boiled. She lifted the lid and started cooking the dumplings.

After adding the dumplings, continue heating the water. Once the water boils, add more water and repeat this process three times until the dumplings are cooked.

Xu Yuehuai was happy to smell the steam from the cooked dumplings, so she picked up a strainer and scooped them all out.

She then put chili oil and vinegar in a small dish and quickly served it to Ah Qi while it was still hot: "Here, eat up."

As soon as he entered the door, Aqi couldn't help but look up and stare at Xu Yuehuai. When Xu Yuehuai placed the steaming hot, colorful dumplings in front of him, he couldn't take his eyes off them anymore.

The air was filled with the aroma of steaming dumplings. He took a deep sniff and even noticed the refreshing scent of cucumber and the sweet fragrance of pumpkin.

Thinking of this, he couldn't resist any longer. He picked up his chopsticks, grabbed a red dumpling, and put it in his mouth.

He had just taken a bite when the dumpling burst with juice in his mouth, followed by the aroma of mutton filling his chest.

These were so delicious that he couldn't resist trying other flavors, and he ate four more dumplings of different colors in a row.

Sure enough, every bite was amazing, with unexpected flavors, yet they were also predictably delicious.

Ah Qi ate half a plate of dumplings, one red one and one yellow one, before realizing he shouldn't have eaten them.

He originally intended to embarrass Xu Yuehuai, but now he had accidentally eaten so well, what should he do?

"Your Highness, how was the meal this time?" Xu Yuehuai could tell from the way he ate, and asked teasingly, even her eyes showing a hint of smugness.

She asked the question knowing the answer already, just to get revenge for his earlier provocation.

Ah Qi wanted to play dumb, but now that Xu Yuehuai had asked, he could only force himself to praise, "Delicious, delicious, you've made the taste I've been looking forward to."

"Well done, well done." Ah Qi forced a smile, "Grandma, you're amazing."

In the following days, Aqi originally intended to continue to be harsh on Xu Yuehuai, but he did not expect that the other party would make him different kinds of food, making him unable to even lash out.

However, while Ah Qi was finally free, Zhao Min was not about to give up.

She originally planned to find the Crown Prince to get rid of this troublesome woman, but she didn't expect that she wouldn't even get to see the Crown Prince.

She came for nothing this time.

Therefore, when she encountered Xu Yuehuai in the garden, she refused to give way.

Xu Yuehuai walked to the left, and she followed him to the left.

Xu Yuehuai walked to the right, and she followed him to the right.

Anyway, they were determined to make things difficult for others.

"Miss Zhao, please go first." Xu Yuehuai didn't want to make her life miserable like this.

But since Zhao Min was determined to cause trouble for others, she naturally wouldn't give up so easily.

She snorted coldly: "What do you mean by this? It's one thing for you to bewitch His Highness the Crown Prince every day, but you also dare to disrespect me? I am the Prime Minister's daughter."

This is the identity she is most proud of.

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuehuai raised an eyebrow. What, could this person not understand?

"Please, Miss Zhao, go ahead," she said again.

Zhao Min hadn't expected the other party to be so stubborn. If things continued like this, she would definitely run out of excuses to lash out.

Thinking this, she had no choice but to pretend she hadn't heard and launched another attack: "I'm talking to you! Didn't you hear me?"

As she spoke, she raised her arm as if to strike.

Xu Yuehuai reacted quickly and stopped the person. Not only that, she also pushed the person to the ground with a little force.

"Are you deaf? I've told you so many times, didn't you hear me?" She glared at him coldly. "Let me tell you, don't flaunt your status as the daughter of the Prime Minister. I am a princess personally appointed by His Majesty. Who do you think you are?"
