Chapter 489 Winter Solstice A peaceful and warm week passed in a blink of an eye, and it was the Winter Solstice. On the Winter Solstice, dumplings are eaten.
Caizhou, 2055, 12.22, Winter Solstice.
The warm blue chandelier in the apartment's living room hung in the air, making the flour on the table shimmer.
The coffee table was moved aside and replaced by a long table covered with brown oil paper. On the table were two large bowls of stuffing - one bowl was finely chopped Chinese cabbage and pork, with oil stars wrapped in minced meat and sprinkled with green onions for flavor; the other bowl was emerald green leeks and eggs, still steaming from being fried.
There was a pile of kneaded dough next to it, like a small snow mountain. Gu Luo rolled up his sleeves and turned the rolling pin in his hand skillfully. The dough flew in his palm and in a blink of an eye, it turned into a round piece with thin edges and thick middle.
Luo Liang sat at one end of the long table, pinching a piece of dough with his fingertips and scooping a spoonful of radish filling with his other hand, just enough to fill the table.
She was not wearing gloves, and the black jade bracelet on her wrist slid gently down to her forearm as she moved, and then slowly fell back to her wrist as she pinched the folds.
As the director of the Luoshen Tuan, his fingertips usually hold pens and documents, but now he is pinching the dumpling wrappers with skillful movements - the folds are pinched finely and evenly, and the dumplings stand on the tray like a row of small gold ingots.
"You make it really well." Gu Feng leaned over to Luo Liang, holding a crooked dumpling in his hand, and smiled: "My cooking skills are far inferior to yours."
That’s why they can chase the big boss.
Luo Liang didn't say anything, but his hand that was making dumplings slowed down a bit and handed Gu Feng a piece of freshly rolled dough.
Gu Luo was rolling the dough when he caught a glimpse of the interaction between Aunt Luo and his father. He couldn't help but sigh that this was what college students should learn from.
Avoid taking two or three detours.
The rolling pin in his hand paused, and a shallow mark appeared on the edge of the dough. He quickly adjusted the strength and made the dough rounder.
Across the table, Luo Shu twisted his chopsticks and stirred the chive stuffing, tasting it from time to time: "The salt is just right. A little sesame oil will make it more delicious."
Luo Shuhe and Luo Shuling sat next to her. The dumplings they made were exactly the same neat as Luo Liang's. They were particularly careful when pinching the folds with their fingertips, and not even a bit of flour got on their fingertips.
Gu Ximan was the most lively one, holding a strange-looking dumpling in her hand. The filling was leaking out from the edge, but she was not panicked. She grabbed a piece of dough and put it on the hole, then held it in front of Gu Luo:
"Stinky brother! Look at the 'little ingots' I made!"
Gu Luo took the "dumpling" from her hand with a smile and helped her stuff the leaked filling back in.
The whole family is happy.
It’s a bit of a pity that Lu Xuexue and Tang Xiaoxiao went home to spend the holiday with their family.
Amidst the hustle and bustle, Gu Luo still felt inexplicably embarrassed.
Looking at the family making dumplings in harmony in front of him - Luo Liang rarely put down her work, Gu Feng kept talking sweetly, and the sisters were all beautiful in their own ways. This warmth made him feel at ease, but when he thought about how he had "made it all" for all the sisters, his back felt a little tight.
Especially when Gu Feng came up to him, patted his shoulder and whispered, "Be nice to Shu He. If you dare to bully her or mess around with other girls outside, I will break your legs." He could only respond vaguely, feeling a little uneasy.
Gu Luo and Gu Feng tacitly agreed not to mention Tang Qi's boyfriend again, and remained ignorant. Throughout the whole meeting, the most talked about topic was his relationship with Shu He.
I don’t know if it was his sixth sense, but Gu Feng was wrapping dumplings when he suddenly said something inexplicably: “I don’t know why… I always feel that the atmosphere at home is a little off…”
With just one sentence, the five people were silenced.
Even someone as calm as Luo Shuhe couldn't help but feel his heart start pounding.
Then, Gu Feng smiled faintly: "Compared to before, you are really a family now. I can feel that there is no longer any barrier between you two. This is great."
Gu Luo and his sisters: “…”
Cheap dad, can we finish what we are saying at once?
As for estrangement, there is definitely none. We are interacting with each other without any distance, so how can there be any estrangement?
At this moment, Luo Liang, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said calmly: "After graduation, let Xiao Luo and Shu He get engaged."
Gu Feng immediately agreed: "I think so too."
