Chapter 1223 Can't you use your brain?
Hearing his wife whisper that she had made dumplings with three different fillings, he rubbed his hands together and said, "I'll have to try them all later and see which filling is the best."
Unexpectedly, his wife slapped him on the back: "This is the first time in my life I've eaten dumplings with three different fillings at once, and you're still showing off like this."
Shen Kaiyuan was not angry at all; instead, he smiled and said, "Yes, yes, it's all thanks to my wife. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had this good fortune."
The couple had been joking around for a while, but Fu Yancheng, who was carrying the dumplings out, was naturally annoyed. His dear wife was still working hard in the kitchen: "You said it's all thanks to your wife, so hurry up and come and take the dumplings."
Without saying a word, Shen Kaiyuan stood up and jogged over to take the dumplings from Fu Yancheng's hands, not forgetting to ask, "Are these two plates of dumplings filled with the same filling?"
Fu Yancheng retorted directly, "Can't you use your brain?"
Shen Kaiyuan didn't react for a moment. He put the dumplings on the table and looked at his wife: "What does he mean? Do you want me to guess?"
Mo Ruhua rolled her eyes at him, thinking that this man was really unacceptable. Seeing that he was still staring at her for an answer, she said, "Who doesn't cook dumplings the same way? Besides, this is the first batch. How many kinds of dumplings are there?"
Shen Kaiyuan slapped his forehead: "Oh dear, I was so excited I forgot about that."
He glanced towards the kitchen, grabbed a dumpling, and popped it into his mouth. It was so hot that he stomped his feet in frustration. After swallowing the dumpling, he gave it a thumbs up: "Who made these pork and radish dumplings? The flavor is absolutely amazing!"
Deputy Battalion Commander Tao arrived at the kitchen door at this moment: "You've all worked so hard today. Is there anything else I can do?"
Fu Yancheng didn't stand on ceremony with him and pointed to the other two ends of dumplings on the stove: "Your sister-in-law has been helping out all afternoon. She provided all the side dishes for these dumplings, so you can just eat in peace."
The two of them were not in the same battalion and did not usually interact much. If it weren't for the fact that Sister Tao and Chu Xue had met and gotten along quite well, she probably wouldn't have invited them to her home for dinner.
Hearing this, Deputy Battalion Commander Tao felt much more at ease. After exchanging a few simple pleasantries, he carried the two plates of dumplings from the stove into the yard.
Fu Yancheng walked up behind Chu Xue and said, "Wife, don't bother with this anymore, go out and rest."
While he was stewing the fish, he was worried that his wife would have morning sickness again, so he kept a close eye on her. He also felt a little regretful, afraid that this pot of fish would affect his wife's appetite.
At first, Chu Xue was also a little confused. Then she remembered that when they were fishing at the reservoir before, she took the opportunity to release a batch of freshwater fish from the space. Those fish were naturally very clever. They probably smelled the bait made from the space pool water immediately. So most of the fish they caught were probably fish released from the space.
Chu Xue smiled at him and said, "I've only been here a short while, I want to stay with you."
Fu Yancheng glanced into the courtyard, then turned and kissed her forehead: "It's too hot in the kitchen. Your situation is special right now. Be good and go outside to chat with your sister-in-law and brother's wife for a while. The dumplings will be ready soon."
After saying that, without waiting for a reply, she half-pushed and half-helped the person to the table: "You sit down and relax. Let Sister Tao give you a brief introduction to the situation in the family compound."
Deputy Battalion Commander Shen and Deputy Battalion Commander Tao, being very perceptive, followed him to the kitchen.
Chu Xue grabbed a handful of peanuts from the table and handed them to Tao's son, her eyes crinkling with a smile. "What's your name? How old are you?"
