"I happened to see these fruits for sale at the gate of the military district yesterday. They looked fresh, and they tasted very sweet, so I bought some more. I thought of bringing them to you all to try!" Shangguan Wan'er explained with a bright smile on her face.
"Okay, now that we've brought it all, we have to enjoy it. Otherwise, I'd feel embarrassed to stay here for dinner!" Shangguan Wan'er looked at Zhang Rong and smiled mischievously.
"My man is going to join in the fun today and see how the competition goes. I'll give you the food money for the next few days! I'd better come over and eat with you guys, otherwise I'll be home alone and I'm too lazy to cook."
As Shangguan Wan'er spoke, she placed the fruit on the table and turned her gaze to Zhang Rong.
Zhang Rong looked at his friend and responded with a smile, "Sure, it'll be more lively with more people! Come and make some dumplings together. There's hot meat porridge in the pot. Would you like to drink some first to fill your stomach?"
Shangguan Wan'er quickly waved her hand: "No need, I think I can eat a few more buns when I'm hungry. I already had some fruit and biscuits before coming here, and I don't feel hungry now." After hearing what she said, Zhang Rong stopped forcing her.
"Then let's start making dumplings! Jiaojiao, come and sit next to me, I will teach you how to make them." Zhang Rong turned and said to Luo Jiaojiao.
"Okay!" Luo Jiaojiao walked happily to Zhang Rong and sat down.
Although it was her first time trying, Luo Jiaojiao was very focused and followed Zhang Rong's instructions meticulously. After making just a few buns, she had mastered the essentials and knew how to make beautiful buns.
After some hard work, the final product is even more exquisite than the ones made by Zhang Rong and Shangguan Wan'er!
Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but admire: "Jiaojiao, you have such a skillful hand! Look how beautifully these buns are wrapped, the fillings don't show through and the buns are evenly sized, they are simply perfect!"
Zhang Rong on the side also praised Luo Jiaojiao highly, saying that even he, as a teacher, felt inferior to her.
Everyone was amazed at the plump, white and cute meat buns in front of them.
Luo Jiaojiao responded modestly: "No, no, it's all thanks to the two of you who taught me well."
Shangguan Wan'er and Zhang Rong smiled at each other and said with admiration: "In my opinion, your skills are good enough to be a master! I'm afraid they are not inferior to those professional steamed buns sellers."
Faced with such enthusiastic praise from her friends, Luo Jiaojiao just smiled and didn't take it to heart.
Because she knew in her heart that the reason why she studied cooking so hard was simply because she hoped that one day in the future she would be able to cook delicious food for Leng Mohan herself.
So in the days to come, she plans to work harder to study cooking techniques and strive to improve her cooking skills to a higher level.
"Aunt Rong, please teach me how to steam buns later, so that when Brother Leng comes back, I can make buns for him myself!" Luo Jiaojiao thought to herself that buns did not have a strong smell of oil smoke and would not irritate the skin. Leng Mohan would definitely not object to her making buns.
"Oh my, little girl, you only think about your Mo Han all day long. You've been eating at my place for the past two days, and you haven't forgotten to learn from me! But when it comes to cooking, Mo Han is really an expert! Why don't you learn from him directly?" Zhang Rong looked at her curiously and asked, "Could it be... that you want to give him a surprise?"
Luo Jiaojiao shook her head first, then nodded a few times and said softly, "Actually, I've always wanted to cook a meal for Brother Leng, but he never let me cook, nor would he let me learn."
