The light was dim, and a pair of white jade hands could be vaguely seen moving quickly on the chopping board. In just a few minutes, the dough was kneaded and rolled out. The rolled-out dough drew a graceful arc in the air and landed steadily on the chopping board.
With a slight movement of her fingers, in just a few seconds, a perfect bun was formed in her hands.
One minute later.
Ten buns of the same shape and size are neatly placed in the steamer.
"Boss, how are you feeling today? You actually cooked for me yourself."
Their boss is a descendant of the royal chef, so generally speaking, he wouldn't cook easily.
"I ate some dog food today. I'm full. I need to digest it."
The corners of the man's mouth twitched. The boss's movement of cutting vegetables was like Hannibal Lecter, so scary.
"Boss, what are you going to make today? Still making soup dumplings?"
The soup dumplings made by their boss are a must-try. They have thin skin, large fillings, rich soup and delicious taste. Once you have eaten them, you will never forget them.
"No, I'm making sauerkraut buns today."
The sauerkraut buns made by their boss are also a must-try. The taste makes one drool just thinking about it.
I don’t know how long it took, but the boss opened the lid of the pot and a puff of hot steam rose into the air, along with the aroma of sauerkraut buns.
The fragrance was everywhere, and the whole kitchen was filled with the aroma of sauerkraut buns.
"Boss...isn't this too sour?"
The man took a bite, and the sourness made his saliva ooze out like crazy, and his whole cheek felt sore and weak.
"Yeah, I put more pickled cabbage on purpose."
"But this is too sour, how can the guests eat it?"
"I'm not selling them today. I'm eating them myself."
The boss took the steamer out and sat in the corner, eating the delicious food by himself. The food was so sour that he kept drooling and his stomach started to growl.
"Boss, you are not in love, are you?"
Their boss is a well-known straight man. In his eyes, there is no sour thing. If he says something is sour, it means that the thing is too sour for people to eat.
"No, I'm just too full from eating dog food, and I want something sour to help me feel better."
Ten minutes later, a shadow appeared on his feet. He swallowed the bun in his mouth, looked up, and stared straight at the sauerkraut bun in his hand.
"Can I have a pickled cabbage bun?"
"Eat it, it'll make you sour."
The boss pushed a whole steamer in front of him. The man took a bun and put it in his mouth. His handsome face wrinkled because of the sour taste and his stomach churned.
"Is it sour?"
"Well enough."
The man swallowed the sauerkraut bun in his mouth expressionlessly, then took another one and put it in his mouth. It was so sour that he almost couldn't maintain his expression.
"If you feel full, go see a doctor and take some medicine. Eating sour food alone won't help."
"It's useless. You can only eat something sour and suppress it."
The man stood up and walked to the second floor. Halfway there, he suddenly stopped, took out a card from his pocket and threw it to the boss.
“………………”
It was a birthday party, not only Pei Zhiting was happy, Doudou was happy, but Song Xijiao was also happy.
"Jiaojiao, are you happy today?"
"Happy," Song Xijiao said, "This is the first birthday I've celebrated with you."
"Send Doudou back to the old house. I want to spend some time with you tonight."
"good."
"Mom, can I sleep at Grandpa's tonight?"
"Okay, but don't act naughty or make grandpa angry."
"Okay, Mom," Doudou kissed her on the cheek, "Mom, I love you, Dad, I love you too."
Doudou was picked up by people from Pei's house. The temperature in the car gradually rose and the driver suddenly spoke.
"Sir, Madam, we're here."
A love hotel called "City of Love".
Song Xijiao's cheeks turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“…”
"What's wrong?"
"Are you... Pei Zhiting?"
"Jiaojiao, how do you want to verify it?"
Pei Zhiting placed her hand on his heart and let her feel his heartbeat.
"Jiaojiao, do you feel it? It's jumping so fast because of you."
…
The moonlight shone through the gap in the curtains and onto Song Xijiao. She suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling with empty eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.
After a few seconds, she closed her eyes again and leaned into Pei Zhiting's arms.
Pei's house.
In Pei Zhonghuan's room, Doudou was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. His grandfather snored so loudly that he couldn't sleep.
Doudou got up from the bed and stepped quietly down. She remembered that her grandfather had said that today was her father's birthday and that her father would go back to the old house to sleep, so she wanted to go find her father.
Doudou opened the door, walked out of the room, and walked towards Pei Zhiting's former room.
Doudou stood at the door of the room and knocked on the door. There was no movement from inside. He knocked a few more times, but still no movement.
Dad was sleeping so soundly that he didn't hear it.
Doudou glanced at the corridor and saw that it was empty. She turned the doorknob and the door opened. Doudou slipped in through the crack.
"Dad, you're back..."
The next day, Song Xijiao was still sleeping when a woodpecker kept pecking her face.
"Jiaojiao, it's time to get up."
Song Xijiao opened her eyes slightly and saw Pei Zhiting's enlarged face. She closed her eyes and crawled into the quilt.
"Get up quickly and I'll take you somewhere."
Pei Zhiting picked her up with the quilt. Song Xijiao was so embarrassed by him that she had to stick her head out.
"Pei Zhiting, what on earth are you going to do?"
"Take you somewhere."
Song Xijiao was dragged out of the house by Pei Zhiting without even washing her face. The car drove out of the city and took more than an hour to reach the destination.
"This is……"
"Come down."
Only then did Song Xijiao see the surroundings clearly. It was all white, with Albizia julibrissin trees covered in bloom.
“How could it be…”
"Three thousand six hundred albizzia trees, Jiaojiao, when you are old and can't walk anymore, I will carry you to see the albizzia flowers."
Pei Zhiting held her in his arms and walked in the albizzia forest. The wind blew gently, the albizzia flowers swayed in the air, and the petals fell with the wind, landing on the two of them.
