Chapter 2374 Making Dumplings (Part 2)
Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was getting more and more weird, Lu Xiaoxiao said to Chen Zhenzhen, "Aunt Chen, let's make dumplings quickly, otherwise I'm afraid we won't be able to finish making dumplings in an afternoon."
"Yes, yes, let's make the dumplings quickly. Ah Hua, go to the kitchen and get a few more pairs of chopsticks."
"good."
More than an hour later, Lu Xiaoxiao had finished wrapping the dumplings. Looking at the more than 200 dumplings neatly placed on the winnowing basket, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that it really is good to have more people.
"Xiaoxiao, let's carry the dumplings to the yard. They will be frozen in less than ten minutes."
"good."
After Lu Xiaoxiao and Zhang Aihua carried the winnowing basket to the yard, they did not go back to the house immediately because Zhang Aihua's house only had one big winnowing basket.
So they had to wait until the dumplings were frozen and put them in baskets before returning to the house with a winnowing basket.
Seven minutes later, Lu Xiaoxiao saw that the dumplings were frozen, so she and Zhang Aihua put the dumplings into the basket, covered it, and then took the dustpan back to the house.
"You must be cold. Come and sit on the kang." Chen Zhenzhen said to Lu Xiaoxiao after taking the dustpan from her hand.
After hearing what Chen Zhenzhen said, Zhang Aihua pretended to be jealous and said to Chen Zhenzhen, "Mom, you are too partial to Xiaoxiao. You asked Xiaoxiao to sit on the kang, but why didn't you ask your own daughter to sit on the kang?"
"Why do you need me to call you? You are already sitting on the kang."
"I...I'm not too cold."
"So don't blame me for not calling you. It's really you who didn't give me a chance."
Zhang Aihua was so stunned by Chen Zhenzhen's words that she couldn't say a word, so she picked up a rolling pin and started rolling out the dumpling wrappers so that she wouldn't get angry.
Lu Xiaoxiao wanted to laugh when she saw Zhang Aihua's expression, but she knew she couldn't laugh at the moment, because if she laughed, Zhang Aihua would definitely get angry.
So Lu Xiaoxiao immediately thought about the tragedies she had seen in her past and shifted her attention to those tragedies, which allowed her to successfully stop laughing.
At around five in the afternoon, all the dumplings were included. She reached out and rubbed her slightly sore shoulders, then said to Chen Zhenzhen, "Aunt Chen, it's getting late, I'm going home first."
"Wait, you are going to eat dumplings at my house tonight. I have spent the whole afternoon making them, so you must try some of them."
After hearing what Chen Zhenzhen said, Lu Xiaoxiao did not refuse, but asked Chen Zhenzhen for a bowl, and then she took the bowl to the yard to fill her dumplings.
"Xiaoxiao, why do you have such a big bowl of dumplings?" Zhang Aihua asked Lu Xiaoxiao when she saw her carrying a big bowl of dumplings into the room.
"Of course we cook them. Your family didn't make dumplings stuffed with pork lard and cabbage today, but I did, so naturally I have to cook some together. This way we can have dumplings with more flavors."
"But you took too much."
"Not much. I made a lot of dumplings today." After saying that, Lu Xiaoxiao walked towards the kitchen with the dumplings.
When Chen Zhenzhen saw Lu Xiaoxiao carrying a large bowl of dumplings into the room, she asked Zhang Aihua again the same question she had asked, and Lu Xiaoxiao repeated her answer.
After eating the dumplings, Lu Xiaoxiao carried two baskets of dumplings home.
After she returned home, she put the dumplings into the space, and then she went into the space to make dumpling skins with a machine.
If she were to use a rolling pin to roll out the dumpling wrappers like she did in the afternoon, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to roll out enough dumpling wrappers for five large pots of stuffing in a month.
