One of them rolled out the dough, and the other made the dumplings. It took them nearly two hours to finish making all the dumplings. When they finished making the last dumpling, Ah Chou took a copper coin from the windowsill and shook it in front of Zhong Mingwei. Then he stuffed it into the dumpling and said proudly while making it: "This is the only dumpling I put the copper coin in. Let's see who can eat it! Hehe!"
Zhong Mingwei watched her wrapping dumplings skillfully. He smiled and said, "It's fine for me, but if you ate it, I'm afraid it would get stuck again. It's much bigger than a fish bone."
"No way! I'm very careful," Ah Chou glared at him and put the dumplings down. At the same time, he said to Zhong Mingwei happily, "Whoever eats it will have good luck for the whole year and make a fortune! Hehehehe!"
Zhong Mingwei looked at her smiling eyes and couldn't help but curl his lips. This girl even believed this.
"You light the fire, I'll put the dumplings in the side room." Ah Chou said as he got off the kang quickly and carried trays of dumplings to the side room.
Zhong Mingwei leaned down the kang to light a fire. He added half a pot of water to the pot and looked at the last tray of dumplings left on the kang. He swallowed his saliva. He was really hungry.
…
"Is it delicious?" Ah Chou looked at Zhong Mingwei with some concern. This was their first time eating dumplings stuffed with sauerkraut, which Ah Chou had pickled himself. Ah Chou was still worried about his pickling skills. "Does the sauerkraut-flavored stuffing taste weird?"
"No wonder, it's delicious. I've never eaten dumplings so delicious before!" After eating one dumpling, Zhong Mingwei's appetite was completely opened. He didn't even bother to dip it in vinegar and mashed garlic, and ate half a bowl in one go.
"Slow down," Ah Chou saw him wolfing down his food, feeling both happy and worried. He poured him a bowl of dumpling tea and pushed the vinegar dish towards him, "Why don't you dip your dumplings in the vinegar dish? Just eat them plain."
"No dipping." Zhong Mingwei hurriedly shook his head to refuse, drank half a bowl of dumpling tea, and continued to eat dumplings.
"You don't eat vinegar? Or garlic?" Ah Chou was a little surprised. While eating dumplings, he said puzzledly, "No, that's not right. You eat it all the time. I haven't seen you being picky about food."
"Then I won't dip it," Zhong Mingwei shook his head as usual, his cheeks swollen, he hadn't swallowed the dumplings yet, so he spoke incoherently, "If I dip it, there will be... a taste in my mouth, and you won't let me kiss you later..."
"Who won't let you kiss me?" Ah Chou blushed immediately, and while pushing the vinegar dish in front of the man, he whispered, "It's okay, I'll let you kiss me."
"You don't even want to taste the peanuts, let alone garlic," Zhong Mingwei still remembered what happened last night and snorted in dissatisfaction, "I won't be fooled."
"You kissed me a lot!" Ah Chou's face turned even redder, but he still couldn't help but stick out his neck to defend himself, "In the end, I let you kiss me, and you kissed me so hard that my face was covered with saliva!"
"That's because I'm strong! Otherwise, how could I kiss you?" Zhong Mingwei snorted, pushing the vinegar dish aside and said unhappily, "Anyway, I won't dip it!"
"You're not strong at all. You're just thick-skinned..." Achou muttered in a low voice.
"What did you say?" Zhong Mingwei asked with a dark face, "Speak louder!"
"I say... I wish a happy new year to the pillar of our family!" Ah Chou was busy with a smile on his face as he bowed to Zhong Mingwei, and at the same time he spread out his hands and said with a smile, "Congratulations on your prosperity! Give me the lucky money!"
"I knew this would happen," Zhong Mingwei put down the chopsticks in his hand, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and slowly took out a small red cloth bag from his arms. He put it in Ah Chou's hand a little uncomfortably, "Here, this is your lucky money."
"It really exists?!" Ah Chou was so surprised and delighted that he wiped his hands quickly and happily opened the small red cloth bag. As soon as he saw what was inside, he was stunned, "This, this is..."
"It's the first time I grind it, and it's not a good grinding." Zhong Mingwei also looked at the small black stone in Ah Chou's hand, and felt even more uneasy for a moment. He scratched his hair and looked at Ah Chou nervously, "Don't despise me..."
