"Pork is ready." Cheng Jiawen put the chopped pork in a large basin and brought it to Xu's mother. Xu's mother took the sauerkraut, put it in the pork, added salt, soy sauce and other seasonings, stirred evenly, and the dumpling filling was ready.
"Second Brother Xu, is the dough ready?" Mother Xu asked Father Xu who was still kneading the dough beside them.
Father Xu stretched and said, "Okay, okay."
"Okay, you grind the dough and we'll wrap it."
After hearing the instructions, Mr. Xu started rolling out the dumpling wrappers, while Mother Xu, Cheng Jiawen and Xu Qianjiao were responsible for making the dumplings.

When she returned to the room, several people had already served the dumplings. She sat on the kang and said, "Eat quickly."
After Xu's mother finished speaking, the group eagerly began to eat. The plump white dumplings, with a gentle bite, the delicious broth instantly spread in the mouth, the mellow taste intoxicating. Every bite was filled with the taste of home, warming people's hearts.
