Chapter 465 Feeling Like a Wasteful Person
"Did you sleep well? They are making dumplings downstairs. Do you want to go downstairs and take a look?" Chen Jingzhou suddenly said to Ji Nanyue.
"I've slept for so long, they couldn't have already made them, could they?" When Ji Nanyue was sleeping, she heard several servants saying that they were preparing to make dumplings after lunch.
"Probably not yet. I just went downstairs and heard them say the dough hasn't risen yet."
"Then I'll go downstairs and take a look." When Ji Nanyue heard that the dough had not yet risen, she hurried downstairs.
The key to whether the buns are delicious or not lies in whether the meat filling is well-seasoned. If the meat filling is not well-seasoned, the buns will definitely not taste good.
When Ji Nanyue arrived at the kitchen on the first floor, Aunt Liu was preparing the stuffing.
"Let me adjust it, Aunt Liu." Ji Nanyue walked up and said.
"Madam, your husband said that you can't work. If you need any seasoning, just tell me and I'll add it." Aunt Liu stopped her and said.
It turned out that in order to prevent Ji Nanyue from working, Shen Jingzhou had already made arrangements with the servants at home in advance, so how could Aunt Liu dare to let her do such a thing.
"Then I'll add the seasoning and you stir it." Ji Nanyue said as she picked up the seasoning on the table and put it into the meat filling according to the proportion.
While stirring the mixture, Aunt Liu said: "Madam, I usually use these seasonings when making dumplings, but why don't they taste as good as yours?" Aunt Liu had just stirred it a few times when the fragrance came out.
"Of course. The same dish tastes different when cooked by different people! The proportions of seasonings are different, so the taste will definitely be different."
Ji Nanyue explained it in detail to Liu Ma.
While listening, Aunt Liu nodded and said, "Madam, I didn't expect you to be such a good cook. Your husband is so lucky to marry you." After listening to her, Aunt Liu guessed that she must be a good cook.
"I learned all these from my grandmother. I failed many times before, but I gradually learned them through repeated attempts."
"It's hard to find a girl who can cook like you these days!"
"No, cooking is such a simple thing, most girls should be able to do it!"
Ji Nanyue felt that cooking was not difficult in fact, and she could definitely learn it as long as she put in some effort.
"My daughter is about the same age as you, but she can't even cook a bowl of noodles. All she does is order takeout all day long. Is takeout better than what you cook yourself?" Seeing that Ji Nanyue knew so much, Aunt Liu couldn't help but think of her daughter.
"There are many girls who can't cook. Actually, it's nothing. She can't do it now because she hasn't learned it. When she gets married and has children, maybe she will be able to cook."
Many girls know nothing before they get married, but after becoming mothers, they learn everything.
“So there are really not many girls who can cook like you. Although I have never seen you cook, I can guess from your words that the food you cook must be delicious.” Aunt Liu praised her.
"You're flattering me. I just know how to cook a few simple dishes."
"Madam, please check if the filling is ready. The dough has risen and you can wrap it now after the filling is mixed."
Ji Nanyan picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of meat filling, put it in front of her nose, smelled it and said: "It's a bit bland, just add some salt."
"Madam, can you tell whether the meat filling is salty or bland just by smelling it?" Aunt Liu said in disbelief.
"That's about right. If you do it more often, you can still smell it."
Whether Ji Nanyue was preparing dumpling fillings or bun fillings, she would know whether it was salty or bland just by smelling it, and she had never made a mistake.
"Madam, you are so amazing. I have been cooking all my life, but I am not as skilled as you." Aunt Liu looked at her enviously and said.
"Maybe my sense of smell is more sensitive than the average person."
The filling is ready, and all that’s left is to make the dumplings.
Ji Nanyue washed her hands, rolled up her sleeves and prepared to take the bun skin that Liu Ma had just rolled out on the table.
"Madam, you'd better not get involved. Ai Ye and I can wrap it ourselves." Aunt Liu stopped her again.
"Okay then, you guys pack it, I'm going to go out."
Ji Nanyue knew that all this must have been arranged by Shen Jingzhou. Since she was not allowed to do it, she would not do it to save the servants from suffering.
Ji Nanyue strolled around the first floor and finally returned to Shen Jingzhou's study upstairs.
"Wife, why did you come up so soon? Have you finished making the buns?" Seeing her coming upstairs, Shen Jingzhou stopped what he was doing and asked.
"Not yet."
"Can't wait any longer?" Chen Jingzhou stretched out his hand and pulled her to sit on his lap.
"Not really, it's just that there's nothing I can do. It's just too boring." Ji Nanyue said gloomily.
"Then tell me, what do you want to do?"
"I know I can't do heavy work now, but I can always do something within my ability. You don't let me do anything every day, and I feel like a useless person now." Ji Nanyue complained.
For someone who can't sit still, not letting her do anything is a punishment for her. Ji Nanyan feels like she is being punished.
What she liked most was freedom and unrestrainedness, but she didn't expect that pregnancy would trap her.
"Others are always thinking about how to be lazy, but you are always thinking about working. Since you feel bored, please help me get a glass of water!" Shen Jingzhou said, picking up the glass of water on the table.
Seeing Ji Nanyan looking unhappy, Chen Jingzhou planned to find something relaxing and fun for her to do every day.
When Ji Nanyue heard Chen Jingzhou asking her to pour him some water, she happily took the cup and went to pour water.
"Hubby, here's the water you requested. Please enjoy it slowly." Ji Nanyue placed the cup of water in front of him, bowed and said.
"Thank you, wife."
Chen Jingzhou took a sip of water, hugged Ji Nanyue and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window to admire the beautiful scenery outside the window.
"Wow, it's so beautiful outside!" Ji Nanyue couldn't help but exclaim.
The sunset at the seaside is so beautiful that it makes people intoxicated. The sunset glow dyes the sky red, and the waves gently lap against the beach, as if telling an endless story.
"No matter how beautiful the scenery outside is, it can't compare to your face." Shen Jingzhou said as he gently kissed her on the top of her head.
"This background should be great for taking photos, honey, let me take a few photos for you."
"What is there for me to take pictures of? If I want to take pictures, I must take pictures for you." Shen Jingzhou said as he took out his mobile phone.
"Honey, go sit over there. I'll take the photo for you."
Ji Nanyan took a look at the clothes on her body and said, "Are you sure you want to take pictures like this? I'm wearing pajamas!"
"What's wrong with wearing pajamas? You'll look good even if you wrap yourself in a sack. Come, come, sit here." Chen Jingzhou pushed Ji Nanyue to the chair next to him and sat down.
The clothes that Ji Nanyue brought with her on this outing were basically picked out by Shen Jingzhou.
What kind of vision does Chen Jingzhou have? Of course he wants to dress his wife up beautifully, so all he brought were the most beautiful clothes, even her pajamas were very nice, there was absolutely no problem wearing them for taking photos.
Ji Nanyue was wearing a white nightgown, which was lazy and casual. With the sunset outside the window, it looked very photogenic.
Chen Jingzhou held the phone, and asked Ji Nanyue to sit for a while, then to stand for a while, and also asked her to pose in different styles.
"Do you really think of yourself as a photographer?" Seeing that he was acting very professionally, Ji Nanyue couldn't help but teasing him.
"Don't underestimate me, I am serious about taking photos for my wife! Although I can't compare with those professional photographers, I am not bad either. My time is very expensive, so the photos I take are not cheap either.
That's you. I won't do it even if you pay me for it, except for the second person." Shen Jingzhou said as he took pictures for her.
He was right. Apart from Ji Nanyue, this was the first time Shen Jingzhou had seen someone taking photos of others.
Before he met Ji Nanyue, he would just take selfies occasionally.
After being with Ji Nanyue, Shen Jingzhou became her personal photographer.
Every time they go out to play, Chen Jingzhou will take a lot of photos of Ji Nanyue. Coincidentally, the sunset and sunset outside are very beautiful today, which is perfect for taking photos.
"Then I am so lucky." Ji Nanyue smiled charmingly at him.
"Don't move, just stay in this position, very good, keep it." Shen Jingzhou said as he took several photos with his mobile phone.
Shen Jingzhou admired the photos on his phone and kept praising them: "Beautiful, these are so beautiful."
"How beautiful it is! Let me see it too!" Ji Nanyue ran over and said.
"Look at this photo. You seem to be glowing. It's so beautiful. I want to set it as my phone screensaver." Shen Jingzhou said as he set the photo as his phone wallpaper.
Ji Nanyan leaned over to take a look and couldn't help but praise him: "Hubby, your photography skills have improved again. The angle you chose is so good."
Ji Nanyue looked at her own photos and felt like she was watching a blockbuster movie. Both the angle of the photo and the lighting were perfect.
“It’s mainly because both the people and the scenery are good-looking, so we can achieve such an effect.” Shen Jingzhou said with a slight smile.
"You are being too modest. If it were someone else, they wouldn't be able to achieve such an effect. It's so beautiful. I'll go change my clothes and come back to continue shooting." Ji Nanyue went to the cloakroom happily.
In fact, Ji Nanyue didn't usually take photos, but when she saw how beautiful the photos Chen Jingzhou took of her were, her passion was aroused all of a sudden.
After a few minutes, Ji Nanyue came out of the cloakroom wearing a red long dress.
"Honey, why did you bring this skirt?"
After buying this skirt, the weather had already turned cold, so Ji Nanyue didn't have time to wear it and could only hang it in the closet.
In fact, Ji Nanyue liked this dress very much, so every time she opened the wardrobe and saw this dress, she felt very regretful.
It’s such a pity that such beautiful clothes can only be hung in the closet when sleeping.
Shen Jingzhou told her that she could wear it next summer, but she felt that even by next summer, she might not be able to wear it.
Because at that time she had just given birth, her body and figure had not yet recovered, so she definitely couldn't wear this size.
She didn't expect that Shen Jingzhou would bring this dress when he went out to play this time.
Just now, when she went to the cloakroom and opened the closet, she saw this skirt for the first time.
When she saw the dress, she was really happy. She took it out without hesitation and put it on.
"You've always felt that you never had the chance to wear it, which is a pity. Since there is such a good opportunity, of course I have to help you realize your wish!" Seeing her so happy, Shen Jingzhou was also very happy.
"Hubby, you are so good to me!" Ji Nanyue put her arm around his waist and said with a beautiful smile.
"I finally married my wife, so of course I have to treat her well. If I don't treat you well, what should I do if you run away one day?" Chen Jingzhou took the opportunity to hug her in his arms.
"I would be a fool if I ran away from a husband who loves me so much, spoils me so much, and takes photos for me."
"Am I really that good?" Shen Jingzhou asked with his head down.
"Of course I have. I'm going to give you an award for best husband."
"Give me another award certificate! You've said this several times, but you never delivered. I want to change to a different reward!"
"Then what reward do you want?" Ji Nanyue looked up at him and asked.
Shen Jingzhou pretended to be thinking hard for a while, then said: "Why don't you kiss me!"
"That's it! Your idea is too simple. Why don't you try another one?" Ji Nanyue thought his request was too simple and advised him to try another one.
"No, I just want you to kiss me." Shen Jingzhou insisted.
"Okay then." Ji Nanyue said, then stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek without hesitation.
"Wife, it's wrong for you to kiss me like this!" Shen Jingzhou said with a dissatisfied look on his face.
"wrong?"
"Then how should we kiss?" Ji Nanyue's eyes were full of questions.
“Like this…” Shen Jingzhou put one hand around her waist, held the back of her head with the other, and lowered his head to kiss her mouth.
Ji Nanyue thought he was trying to play some tricks again, but she didn't expect that he actually wanted to kiss her.
Since they had already kissed, she might as well let him kiss her. However, as the kiss went on, Ji Nanyue felt something was not right.
Shen Jingzhou actually pried open her teeth, he wanted to kiss her with his tongue!
But by the time she reacted, it was too late, he had already succeeded.
In view of his outstanding performance today, let's reward him.
Ji Nanyue slowly put her arms around Shen Jingzhou's neck, and she was almost hanging on him.
The two people in the room kissed each other passionately. The sunset outside the window saw this scene and shyly hid in the clouds.
It was unknown how long it had been, but when Ji Nanyue's legs became weak from his kiss and she could hardly stand, Shen Jingzhou finally let her go.
But before she could catch her breath, she was picked up by Shen Jingzhou.
Ji Nanyan was so scared that she quickly grabbed Shen Jingzhou's clothes and asked, "Husband, where are you going?"
"Of course, we're going back to our room." Shen Jingzhou said as he walked towards the bedroom.
Ji Nanyan instantly understood what he wanted to do. She struggled and said, "It's still daytime, don't do this!"
