Chapter 137 Chinese New Year (1)
After waiting for a long time, New Year's Eve finally arrived. The weather was beautiful, and the weather was still very clear on this day. The children were wearing brand new flowery clothes and were running happily on the streets, playing and laughing.
Because the number of older people in Wuyan Lane is relatively large, the New Year atmosphere is still relatively strong. Couplets containing joy and blessings are pasted at the door of every house, and festive red lanterns are hung. People walking on the streets are smiling happily. At this time, most of the shops have been closed. Fortunately, everyone has already purchased the New Year goods, so they are not in a hurry.
Su Muzhe got up early in the morning, and no one at home could help, so everything depends on him. He put on casual clothes and... tied up his long hair to avoid disturbing the cooking in a while. So, His Highness Fox Lord is a cheater!
Because Su Muzhe is usually a very diligent person, he will clean Su Ji when he has nothing to do. So before the New Year, there is no need to do a major cleaning. The room is already bright and clean, which makes people happy to see.
According to the custom here, we don’t eat breakfast on the New Year’s Day, and eat dumplings at noon. In the evening, the family gathered together for a sumptuous New Year’s Eve dinner. So Su Muzhe went straight to the kitchen and went to knead noodles to make dumplings.
The dough was quickly kneaded round and shiny under the just right force of Su Muzhe. Then he used a rolling pin to press the dough into a moderately thick layer, sprinkled with flour, and cut it into many neatly lined small squares.
Originally, Su Muzhe didn't have such trouble. There were dumpling skins in supermarkets or pasta stores outside. But there were Huang Yi and Huang Er Shi, and behind him, His Highness Fox Master. One of them was more picky and said that the dumpling skins they bought tasted unpleasant at all. They were so slim and slim, and they were incomparable to what Su Muzhe made. So Su?? Family cooking husband????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
He went to the cabinet to get a large glass bowl and prepared to mix dumpling fillings. When he saw Huang Yi floating over from somewhere, he looked at Su Muzhe with an extremely complicated look, and then said quietly: "Hu Qing is here, he is looking for you." After that, he looked at Su Muzhe again, and then slowly disappeared.
Su Muzhe: "..." What's wrong with each of them?
After a while, His Highness, wearing a silver fox fur fur fur fur coat and two furry fox ears on his long silver hair, walked over from the aisle leading to the kitchen in the main house, holding two little white foxes in his arms, and a little fox was tilted on his shoulders. When these three little foxes saw Su Muzhe, their eyes suddenly lit up, as if even the tail behind them had shaken. They couldn't wait to jump off Hu Qing's body and rushed towards Su Muzhe.
Su Muzhe was directly washed away by them. His hands were covered with flour, so he naturally could not hug them. He could only say warmly: "Good, be good, come down first, I'll make dumplings for you later."
The three little foxes grabbed Su Muzhe's clothes with their claws and rubbed their little head against his chest - no, we haven't met for a long time, we all miss you so much, Xiao Su, do you miss us?
Because he formed a contract with Hu Qing, Su Muzhe could already understand the little fox's language, so he smiled and nodded, saying, "I miss you, of course I miss you. You can go to your Lord's place first, I will make delicious food for you."
The little foxes reluctantly removed their claws, then jumped to the ground, and ignored them, the Lord standing behind them quietly squatted on the ground, watching Su Muzhe's every move carefully.
Su Muzhe chopped the dumpling filling, added oil and some condiments, and after stirring, he started to make dumplings. His fingers flew, and in an instant, a chubby, round-shaped dumpling was wrapped. The little foxes all stared at him in surprise.
Hu Qing looked at Su Muzhe's slender and white fingers and was also a little jealous. Then he came to him and said, "I'll make dumplings for you too."
Su Muzhe held the dumpling skin in his hand and looked at him in confusion: "Can you do it?"
If you are a man, you cannot be questioned. Hu Qing cleans his hands and picks up a piece of dumpling skin with great enthusiasm. As soon as he picks it up, his sharp claws poke the dumpling skin into a hole.
Hu Qing: "..."
Su Muzha "..."
Hu Qing coughed dryly, put down the broken dumpling skin, carefully took another one, and said, "That was an accident just now. Now you teach me. I am so smart, I will definitely be able to learn it once."
Su Muzhe looked at him speechlessly for a while, and saw that his attitude was very firm, he had to slow down and make another dumpling to demonstrate to Hu Qing.
Hu Qing followed his movements and slowly scooped a spoonful of dumpling fillings, then stuffed them into the dumpling skin, and pinched them again... With a "puff", the filling was suddenly filled with a lot of it, and the whole scene was terrible.
Hu Qing took another piece of dumpling skin, and then, this time the whole skin was cracked. Then, there was no accident this time, because there was too little stuffing, and the whole dumpling was ugly and shriveled... The little foxes covered their faces with their front paws, expressing their feelings that they could not bear to look at them.
After several times, Su Muzhe could no longer bear it. He sent Hu Qing aside to wash vegetables, and he cleaned up the mess on the chopping board so that he could continue to make dumplings with peace of mind. Su Muzhe understood that His Highness Hu Zun's cooking skills were so low that he could not bear the pretense. Letting him do these would only turn everything into a disaster.
Hu Qing shrugged his shoulders and was not angry. He stood obediently in front of the Liulitai table washing dishes, and occasionally glanced at Su Muzhai. Finally, he even took advantage of his inattention and secretly picked up a dumpling, looked carefully at the shape of the gold ingot, and then quietly stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it, and felt that it tasted pretty good.
Several little foxes looked at their Lord with envious eyes. This strange thing looks so delicious, and they want to eat it too!
Hu Qing thought about it, but shook his head and refused, and gestured with his eyes that Xiao Su was still here, and if there were too many dumplings, he would doubt it.
The little fox had to continue squatting obediently and stared at Su Muzhe. He really wanted to eat something called "dumplings"!
After Su Muzhe finished packing the dumplings, he lowered his head and was so cute that his heart was trembling by the three pairs of big eyes. He didn't care that it was noon now. He took a part of the dumplings and threw them into the pot that had been boiled. After about ten minutes, Su Muzhe picked up the lid of the pot, and a scent of the fragrance came towards him, which shocked several little foxes and saliva was about to flow out.
Su Muzhe brought three small bowls and scooped a few dumplings in each. Because he didn't know if it would have an impact on the little fox, he did not pour vinegar sauce into the bowl.
When the little foxes saw this, they were jumping happily on the spot, and then quickly became a child and hurried to Su Muzhe.
