After all the stuffing was wrapped, there were more than 300 dumplings in total. Lin Manman would eat 160-170 dumplings, and the rest would be given to Lin Yintian.
Lin Yintian himself certainly couldn’t eat so much, but Lin Manman had also seen the two old people who lived with Lin Yintian in the cowshed!
The two old people are a couple, a few years older than Lin Yintian. The man is called Min Yoongiun, and he used to be an economics expert at Kyoto University!
The woman’s name is Zhou Zhilan, and she is a professor of pharmacy at the Peking University Medical School!
The two met and fell in love when Min Yoongi was studying in the United States.
Min Yoongiun and Zhou Zhilan have a son and a daughter. Before the accident, the eldest son had gone abroad to study and the daughter was married!
The two people would not have fallen so quickly. After all, although their identities were sensitive, Zhou Zhilan was a very good doctor and had treated burns for a senior leader before, so she was somewhat protected!
However, the sons-in-law of the two men had no talent and were eager to get promoted, so they regarded the two old people as stepping stones to move up and reported them!
The two of them studied abroad for quite some time, so naturally they had some foreign friends, especially academic friends, and they often wrote to them to discuss issues!
Therefore, there were quite a lot of letters exchanged with foreign countries, so the charges against the two were confirmed and they were directly demoted!
However, the two of them have many students all over the world, so naturally there are many students who have taught them who secretly help them. So while the Gu family was helping Lin Yintian to move from the Northwest, they also moved the two old people from Yunnan Province to Heilongjiang Province!
At this point, although we cannot visit the two old people openly, there are always some former students who secretly send things to them!
Captain Li was not a person who withheld things from others. All the things he sent to the two old people ended up in their hands!
The two old men are not stingy with their things. They will give some of the good things to Lin Yintian, so the relationship between the three of them is very good!
After Lin Manman and Lin Shangjing met Lin Yintian, they often sent gifts to Lin Yintian. Later, when they heard Lin Yintian mention the two old people, and knew how much the two old people took care of Lin Yintian, when they sent gifts again, Lin Manman always prepared three copies!
However, the three of them are old after all, and they can't eat as much as young people. Except for Lin Yintian who has a better appetite and can eat more than 40, 60 are enough for Min Yoongen and Zhou Zhilan!
When Lin Shangjing came back, Lin Manman had prepared the dipping sauce for the dumplings, and Lin Shouwang had also boiled the water. They were just waiting for Lin Shangjing to come back and cook the dumplings so that the three of them could eat!
As soon as Lin Shangjing entered the room, he saw Lin Manman putting the round dumplings into the pot. Lin Shangjing swallowed his saliva and asked:
"Oh, my little sister was kneading dough to make dumplings this morning? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Otherwise, I would have come home early!"
"Why do these dumplings smell so good? What's the filling?"
Lin Manman teased him:
"I can't tell you what the filling is. Try one first. If you can tell, you can eat dumplings with me and my second brother!"
"If you can't taste it, there's still some noodles left. You can just make some noodles yourself!"
Lin Manman was just joking. The remaining noodles were going to be used for making noodle soup tomorrow morning!
When Lin Shangjing heard this, he boasted with a smile:
"Then I will definitely be able to eat these dumplings. You have the best mouth, and you can tell what the fillings and seasonings are. Once you taste them, you can pinch them with your hands!"
As soon as the dumplings were served, Lin Shangjing ate one first. Afraid that he couldn't taste it, he took a small bite and slowly savored the flavor!
After eating the dumplings, Lin Shangjing smacked his lips. The dumplings were fragrant and filled with meat and eggs. There must have been a lot of meat, green onions, and something else in them, but he couldn't tell what was going on!
It’s a bit like the dried shrimps my sister puts in the soup and stir-fried cabbage, but a little different!
Lin Shangjing grabbed a plate of dumplings, held it in his arms and said:
"I lose. I can't tell what the filling is. But how can I not eat such delicious dumplings? This plate is mine!"
Lin Shouwang and Lin Manman also sat down to eat. Lin Manman tasted a dumpling and thought it tasted really good. She said proudly:
"I knew you wouldn't guess it. This is stuffed with tung flowers and squid. Come eat it quickly. After you finish eating, my second brother will stay at home. Let's go to the Dongmen Production Team and send some to Dad!"
Lin Shangjing nodded and said:
"Okay, Dad has definitely never eaten this stuffing before. Don't say anything when the time comes. I'll test Dad too!"
When Lin Shouwang heard what Lin Shangjing said, he looked at him like a fool and thought: This kid has been tricked by Manman again. Manman teased him like this, knowing that this kid has to tease his dad!
Dad is not a good-tempered person. If you tease me like this, I will definitely give this kid some slack!
However, this kid has been quite cocky lately, it’s time to give him some slack!
After dinner, Lin Manman put all 120 frozen dumplings outside into the backpack, and also put the three pairs of big cotton shoes she asked Grandma Bai to make into the backpack!
Of course, the soles were sewed by Lin Manman and Lin Shouwang. Grandma Bai is old, so making shoes is no problem for her, but she can’t sew the soles which requires a lot of effort!
Jin Manman is a girl with super strength. She sews shoe soles, which is very easy to do, but her skills are not very good and it uses too many needles!
Since Lin Shouwang was rarely allowed to go out to the fields, he could only do work on the kang. Let alone sewing clothes, the needle was big and the eye was small. He was not as good as Lin Manman!
But as long as the soles are dense, you can't tell the big and small stitches at all. At most, you can sew a row a few more times, so his soles are made very well!
During the time he was on the kang, he not only took in the money from the three of them, Lin Yintian, Min Yoon-eun and Zhou Zhilan, but he also helped Aunt Wang and Grandma Bai take in a lot!
When Lin Manman and Lin Shangjing arrived at Lin Yintian's cowshed, they saw an oil lamp lit in Lin Yintian's room, which was rare. Min Yoongen and Zhou Zhilan were also in Lin Yintian's room, and the three of them had sad looks on their faces!
Seeing Lin Shangjing and Lin Manman coming over, Min Yoon-eun and Zhou Zhilan stood up and said:
"Brother Lin, you talk to the kids first. We'll go and guard them. We'll call you if there's anything else!"
Hearing what Min Yoongen and Zhou Zhilan said, it was obvious that there was something that couldn't be solved. Lin Manman quickly stopped them and asked:
"Uncle Min, Aunt Zhou, you both look unhappy today, and your words are full of ulterior motives. Is there nothing you can't solve?"
Min Yoongi sighed:
"I don't know what happened. The cow was foaming at the mouth and was about to die. She was pregnant with a calf. This matter, ah..."
"After you finish talking to your dad, leave quickly. If something happens, it will be bad if you two are implicated!"
