The Yu family had no idea what the Gu family was like.
By this time, Lan Yao and her family of three had almost finished their meal.
Grandma Yu was still quite surprised to see the clean plates and bowls.
"The three of us actually finished all the food on that table."
Lan Yao smiled and said, "That's because Grandma Yu and Gu Zixiao, you two cook so well. I couldn't help but eat a little more."
She is a superhuman, and her body naturally consumes a lot of energy, so she can eat a lot.
Gu Zixiao goes without saying; he's a man with special abilities, so his energy expenditure is probably similar to hers.
It's only natural that you can eat it.
Gu Zixiao followed suit: "It's because Lan Yao and Grandma Yu cook so well that I ate more."
Grandma Yu chuckled and chimed in, "It's because you two cook so well. I ate a little more than I should have."
Given her age, even if she could eat a lot, Lan Yao wouldn't let her eat much more.
Grandma Yu will have dumplings for dinner tonight, and if she eats too many, she might feel unwell.
"We've finished all the food from New Year's Eve dinner. Won't we have to cook more tomorrow? I've heard from the older generation that it's not a good time to cook during the New Year period," Grandma Yu said worriedly.
Lan Yao and Gu Zixiao looked at each other, both feeling somewhat helpless.
Lan Yao spoke up: "Grandma Yu, we can't believe in those feudal superstitions. Besides, even if we're very good at cooking, we can only make enough for three days at most. After that, can we still eat the food? Even in winter, a whole table of food will spoil after a few days. In the end, we'll just have to make new food anyway, won't we?"
After Lan Yao said that, Grandma Yu thought about it and it seemed to make sense.
Gu Zixiao: "If we have the means, it's better to consider both eating and working as meals."
Gu Zixiao said this because he discovered that Lan Yao didn't like to eat leftovers, or rather, no matter how much was cooked the day before, she would eat it all, so there was no possibility of leftovers.
Even if there are leftovers, they are easily eaten by the next morning.
Therefore, there are never any leftovers left in their house for two or three days.
Most of the time, it's about calculating what you eat and what you do.
"Yes, that's true. Besides, with two of you big eaters in our family, there's no way there will be leftovers."
"That's not true. It's because Gu Zixiao and I are still young and growing."
Grandma Yu: "It's true that you're young and still growing."
Grandma Yu glanced at Gu Zixiao and said indifferently, "Gu Zixiao is already an old man. He's no longer in the stage of growing up."
Lan Yao couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Gu Zixiao: ...
Oh my god!
Why is Grandma Yu like this?
He couldn't very well lay a hand on Grandma Yu.
This is really quite frustrating.
Grandma Yu glanced at Gu Zixiao indifferently: "What, are you unhappy? Am I not telling the truth?"
Gu Zixiao looked at Lan Yao, who was laughing uncontrollably, and said in a muffled voice, "What she said is true."
After Lan Yao finished laughing, she quickly grabbed Gu Zixiao's arm and said, "I don't mind."
"Grandma Yu, let's hurry up and pack our things to make dumplings. I'm really craving dumplings."
Lan Yao naturally changed the subject.
Grandma Yu understood and naturally changed the subject.
"Alright, it is getting late. Let's hurry up and go."
So, Grandma Yu and Lan Yao started tidying up while chatting and laughing, and Gu Zixiao watched them work from the side.
He did want to help, but Lan Yao told him to chop the filling.
Gu Zixiao had no choice but to leave and go to the kitchen to chop the filling.
Before he went to chop the filling, Lan Yao called out from behind him, "Put in more meat!"
Gu Zixiao replied, "I understand."
Both Lan Yao and he are carnivores, so he naturally wouldn't be stingy with the amount of meat.
After Lan Yao and Grandma Yu finished tidying up quickly, they went to the kitchen to start chopping the other three kinds of fillings.
Simply chop the chives and add them to the scrambled eggs, shrimp, and other prepared seafood. Just add a little salt.
The pickled cabbage needs to be chopped carefully, and some chopped green onions need to be added to the lamb filling.
Lan Yao doesn't really like lamb filling.
So, they spent about an hour just chopping the filling, not to mention making the buns.
Fortunately, there is strength in numbers, and since they had nothing else to do, they chatted and made dumplings at the same time.
During that time, I also chopped some cabbage and made a cabbage and pork filling.
They planned to make a lot of dumplings, then cover them with a cloth to seal them tightly, and throw them into the freezing cold. That's how they used a ready-made refrigerator.
They packed this bag until after 9 p.m., which is when the firecrackers are at their loudest.
Lan Yao stretched her arms and legs, and seeing that she had almost finished wrapping, she said, "Let's wrap the rest tomorrow."
Grandma Yu breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Okay. Let's pack up and put our things outside."
Gu Zixiao: "Are you hungry? Shall we get something to eat?"
"Okay. I want to eat seafood and sauerkraut fillings." Lan Yao had been wanting to eat seafood and sauerkraut fillings for a long time.
She was too embarrassed to mention it since she saw everyone making dumplings with great enthusiasm.
Gu Zixiao: "Then you and Grandma Yu clean up the rest. I'll go make dumplings."
Grandma Yu rolled her eyes: "You didn't ask me what kind of filling I wanted."
Gu Zixiao said "Oh," and asked casually, "Grandma Yu, what kind of filling do you want?"
Grandma Yu: "I want to eat pure meat filling."
Gu Zixiao nodded and said, "Then I'll log off."
Lan Yao: "Didn't they not have pure meat filling before?"
Gu Zixiao: "I was afraid you'd want to eat it. So I chopped up some more meat and added some chopped green onions."
However, the two of them were so focused on watching that they didn't notice anything amiss.
Lan Yao exclaimed, "I was wondering why there were two extra bowls of mutton filling!"
"Silly boy. Didn't you notice that I didn't put in much lamb?"
Gu Zixiao noticed that Lan Yao didn't really like eating mutton, so he prepared less of it.
Lan Yao glared at him, a half-smile on her face: "You think I'm stupid?"
Gu Zixiao: "I was wrong."
"Alright, go make the dumplings. I'll peel the garlic after I'm done here."
Eating dumplings without garlic is simply not fun.
Watching Gu Zixiao and Lan Yao sing in unison, Grandma Yu suddenly felt that the two of them would definitely be able to live a good life.
If the two of them are having a bad time, it must be Gu Zixiao's fault.
While tidying up, Grandma Yu said to Lan Yao, "When we eat dumplings, let's set off another string of firecrackers."
Lan Yao: "Okay. I'll go release it."
Grandma Yu: "I doubt Gu Zixiao will allow it."
