Two pot lids of wontons were used up, and there was no more dough or filling left. Su Xueli said, "Okay, it's done. I'll cook the wontons in a bit."
Xiao Jiu looked at the two pot lids of wontons and asked, "You won't be able to finish them, will you?"
Su Xueli said, "If he can finish cooking, your brother Wei can eat three big bowls of wontons. He hasn't had them in a long time, so we have to make sure he has enough."
Xiao Jiu looked at her: "Sister Xue Li, I can tell that you care about him a lot."
Su Xueli blushed slightly and asked, "Really?"
Xiao Jiu said, "Yes."
Su Xueli said, "You must have misheard me. I just know he likes to eat wontons and is a glutton. He works for me, so I have to make sure he's well-fed."
Xiao Jiu rubbed her head. "Could I have misheard? I hope I did. Then I'll go after him, Sister Xue Li, don't be jealous."
Su Xueli said with a smile, "I would be willing to call him brother-in-law even if you asked me to do so tomorrow."
Xiao Jiu was happy, "Then I'm relieved, hehehe."
Su Xueli could only remind her, "Xiao Jiu, I think you should focus on your current boyfriend. He's not right for you."
Xiao Jiu displayed an indomitable spirit, as if saying, "No one can help me reach the summit, but I will brave the snow to climb it myself": "Sister Xue Li, I know I'm not good enough for him, but heaven rewards those who persevere, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. Dripping water can wear away stone; with enough effort, even an iron rod can be ground into a needle. I will definitely be able to win his heart..."
Su Xueli was completely bewildered, her tongue practically tied in knots: "I...I'll go...press the water!"
A big pot of wontons was ready, and Su Xueli said to Xiao Jiu, "Let's invite your Brother Wei to eat wontons."
Xiao Jiu scurried into the workroom, "Brother Wei, I've wrapped and cooked the wontons. Wash your hands and eat!"
Wei Mingshen smelled the delicious aroma coming from the kitchen and immediately put down his paintbrush, saying, "Great!"
But when he sat at the dinner table, looking at the beautiful wontons in the bowl, and then at Xiao Jiu whose hands were still covered in flour, disbelief appeared in his eyes.
But thinking about it, I haven't heard Su Xueli say she can make wontons in the past two months. Maybe it really was Xiao Jiu who made them?
He hesitated for a moment, then scooped up a wonton with a spoon, took a small bite, and swallowed it whole. "Delicious!"
Su Xueli's eyelashes fluttered, and she gave a sly smile.
"Hehehe, I knew Brother Wei liked to eat it, so I'll make it for Brother Wei every day from now on."
Su Xueli stomped on her foot suddenly.
She managed to hold back without uttering a sound.
He continued to flatter him: "Brother Wei, is it too salty or too bland for you? Tell me if you're not satisfied, and I'll fix it next time."
Wei Mingshen wanted to eat two in one bite, and mumbled, "No, no... It's delicious, it's delicious..."
Su Xueli felt a pang of sadness again. In her past life, she had made countless wontons for him, and although he always ate them with great relish, he never gave her a single word of praise.
Yes, she was so lowly, she didn't deserve it.
"Snow Pear, you eat it!"
Wei Mingshen suddenly looked up from his bowl and saw Su Xueli staring blankly at a wonton.
Su Xueli calmed herself down and said, "Eat."
Then I put a wonton in my mouth, and it was indeed very delicious.
It's a pity she never noticed it in her past life.
One can't help but think: it's better to please yourself than to please others!
Unfortunately, it took me two lifetimes to understand this principle.
"Xiao Jiu, where did you learn to make these wontons?" Wei Mingshen asked after finishing a large bowl.
