"I forgot to keep track of the time."
Xu Ningjun muttered and took two steps before she realized there was no one around. She turned her head and beckoned to him, "Come on."
If he doesn't follow, how will she know whether it is cooked or not? What if it is not cooked yet?
Cheng Chuan put down the hoe in his hand and followed.
Tian Aiping clenched her hands in the field. The vixen asked Brother Chuan to go, but Brother Chuan actually followed her.
He had never treated her like this before!
"Brother Chuan! She's not doing her job during working hours, you can't go."
That bitch is worthy of ordering Brother Chuan around. Sister Qingqing said that this woman has never been a bitch since she was a child.
Sister Qingqing is such a young person, yet she is always bullied by her.
Xu Ningjun lowered his head and glanced at Tian Aiping coldly without stopping, as if it would be cheap to talk to her.
Tian Aiping gritted her teeth. Xu Ningjun ignored her and didn't call Cheng Chuan again, but Brother Chuan followed her.
Neither of them paid any attention to her.
Brother Chuan must have been confused, she has to help Brother Chuan see clearly and not be deceived!
In the fire room, the dumplings were rolled again in the pot.
"Is it cooked?"
She leaned over and put her head in front of the cauldron, as if she could observe it.
Cheng Chuan knew it was cooked, but he suddenly wanted to tease her and shook his head, "Not sure."
Xu Ningjun hummed, "How about you try it again?"
"No."
"Tuo."
"No... too much."
"T!"
Xu Ningjun took a dumpling out of the pot, put it in a bowl, and handed it to him without saying a word.
The cooked dumplings smelled delicious. She was drooling a little, hoping that Cheng Chuan would taste them quickly.
He didn't eat it, and seemed to be in trouble, picking at the dumplings with his chopsticks.
"Don't worry, eat it. I think it's cooked. You... um!"
When the dumpling was put into his mouth, Xu Ningjun widened his eyes, knowing what he was waiting for.
He waited for it to cool down a bit before giving it to her.
"It's cooked, it's cooked."
She nodded incoherently and called him a bad guy.
Cheng Chuan took out all the dumplings from the pot, turned his back and couldn't help but curl his lips.
Xu Ningjun is no longer the child who would be satisfied just by eating dumplings during the Chinese New Year.
She has lived through an era where everyone could eat anything, and she could buy whatever she wanted just by going out.
But the chive dumplings made her shake her head and say, "Eat them. What kind of dumplings do you eat during Chinese New Year?"
"Pork and vegetables."
Every Chinese New Year, the village would slaughter pigs and distribute the pork to each household.
"Do you want to eat?"
Xu Ningjun asked curiously, she had never eaten Yicai dumplings.
"have no idea."
He didn't eat dumplings, but he and his grandmother could drink noodle soup during the Chinese New Year.
Some of the dumplings were boiled to pieces, and you could still taste the meat oil. He was also looking forward to the New Year.
"If you eat it, you eat it. If you don't eat it, you don't eat it. I don't know what it is."
Xu Ningjun was surprised. Cheng Chuan didn't say anything else. He only ate two or three pieces before putting down his chopsticks.
"These are all yours, eat them all. If you want to bring some to grandma, use this lunch box."
He made the dumplings himself and he wanted to eat them himself.
"It's time to go to work. How come you're even more slow-paced than a girl like me?"
Cheng Chuan frowned slightly, and could only pick up the chopsticks again and eat seven or eight.
Put the remaining ten into a lunch box and bring it to grandma.
After eating, the two went to see the meat in the well.
The idea of taking out the barrel, preserving the meat, and hanging it in the well was a workable one.
Xu Ningjun nodded. Her jam business had been delayed these days because of work.
The weather is hot, so the jam cannot be kept for a long time. It must be made that night and sold in the morning.
She was just worrying about this. "Next time I buy pork, there will be room for it."
The bucket in Cheng Chuan's hand fell into the well with a splash.
He turned his head to look at her and said after a long time, "I will accompany you."
