Zhao Mingcheng was very tactful and gave Lu Jianguo and Li Jinfeng the opportunity to be alone.
He thought that the two of them must have a lot to talk about.
However, things did not develop as he expected.
Li Jinfeng said nothing, filled a basin with water and washed the mud off her face.
That relatively fair face was revealed.
Lu Jianguo stared at her without blinking, not knowing what to say.
It was Li Jinfeng who took the initiative to ask, "Would you like to have dinner here tonight?"
Lu Jianguo nodded embarrassedly, "Yeah!"
"Then let's eat dumplings tonight!"
The ten kilograms of cornmeal that Li Jinfeng brought back came in handy, but she was still short of flour, otherwise she couldn't make dumplings with the cornmeal. Li Jinfeng was thinking about whether she should get some more flour from the space, but she had to do it without Lu Jianguo's knowledge.
"I'll help you!" said Lu Jianguo.
Li Jinfeng looked at him in surprise. No matter how she looked at him, she didn't think Lu Jianguo could cook.
But since the other party had asked, she felt embarrassed to refuse.
"Then wait for a while. I'll go pick some eggplants and bring back some vegetables!"
Zhang Xiu Lan takes care of the Li family's vegetable garden, and the vegetables are growing well.
However, that was Old Lady Li's favorite. Zhang Xiu Lan had to get Old Lady Li's consent before picking the vegetables.
Li Jinfeng was different. She was not afraid of being scolded by Old Lady Li when she went to pick vegetables, because Lu Jianguo was the grandson of her grandfather's old friend.
Given Li Fuman's personality, he must have a good relationship with her to be able to leave her alone at home.
Even if she picked some vegetables because Lu Jianguo and Zhao Mingcheng came over, because of her relationship with Li Fuman, Mrs. Li would have to think carefully before getting angry.
Li Jinfeng picked some eggplants, cucumbers and beans. Thinking of making eggplants, she also cut some leeks.
Taking advantage of the time to go to her room, she took a pound of flour from the space. According to the ratio of one pound of flour to half a pound of cornmeal, she could make more than ninety large dumplings.
Lu Jianguo and Zhao Mingcheng are men, and each can eat about seven or eight. Women have smaller appetites, so three or four will be enough. If there are any left, they can be used to make fried dumplings.
Lu Jianguo was strong, so Li Jinfeng asked him to help knead the dough while she picked and washed the vegetables.
Li Jinfeng worked very quickly and efficiently. While kneading the dough, Lu Jianguo watched Li Jinfeng working skillfully out of the corner of his eye, and the smile on his lips was almost overflowing.
Realizing that his smile was a little silly, Lu Jianguo coughed softly and tried hard to maintain his silent image.
"Comrade Lu, what's wrong with you?" Li Jinfeng turned her head and asked Lu Jianguo.
"No...it's okay!" Lu Jianguo shook his head in panic.
Li Jinfeng didn't take it to heart.
She started making dumpling fillings. There was some sauerkraut at home, so she could make sauerkraut and meat fillings.
Then wash the freshly picked eggplants, wring out the moisture, chop them and add them to the meat to make eggplant and meat stuffing. Then add the leeks to make leek and meat stuffing.
Nowadays, eating meat is a luxury. Even when making dumplings, you have to weigh the amount of meat carefully.
Li Jinfeng used up a pound of meat at one time, put the three kinds of fillings separately, and there was no seasoning to add, so she added some salt and waited for the fillings to be flavored. After the dough kneaded by Lu Jianguo had risen, she could make dumplings.
For Li Jinfeng, cooking is as easy as it can be.
She mixed the stuffing and looked up to find Lu Jianguo looking at her.
Li Jinfeng subconsciously thought there was something on her face, and blushed as she asked, "Did I not wash the mud off my face?"
