"Then I'll pack with you guys. I'm not tired yet and don't need to rest!"

"Mom, where is our rolling pin? Take it out first so I can wash it."

Lin Wanwan did not choose to go back to the house to rest. She couldn't let her mother-in-law, who was so old, busy in the kitchen while she, as the daughter-in-law, was sleeping in the house.

Doesn’t this tell whether it looks good or not?

I will also feel guilty about it.

"I've already washed the rolling pin and it's drying on the rack over there."

"Daughter-in-law, if you don't want to rest, come and make dumplings with us."

Mrs. Zhou was very skillful and quickly washed the wild vegetables, dried them and chopped them into fine pieces.

Then add the shepherd's purse into the chopped meat.

Add a little salt and stir, and the dumpling filling is ready.

Zhou Yuesheng took out a large chopping board, took out the dough, kneaded it, and then rolled it into a long strip with his bare hands.

Finally, use your hands to pinch and pinch the dough, and small pieces of dough will fall onto the chopping board.

Grab a little bit of flour and put it on the small doughs, then gently rub and roll them with your hands.

Then flatten the dough one by one and start rolling it with a rolling pin.

Zhou Yuesheng's movements were very skillful, smooth and pleasing to the eye, and it was obvious that this was not his first time.

"During Chinese New Year, my mother and I made dumplings at home."

"My father can only help light the fire, he can't do anything else."

Seeing his young wife's curious look, he began to explain seriously.

"My husband, you are really amazing!"

"For others, one piece of dough is the limit. I didn't expect you to be able to do two or three at once."

Looking at Zhou Yuesheng's movements, Lin Wanwan found it hard to believe how one person with just one pair of hands could roll out three pieces of dough at the same time?

While others were rolling out one dough, he had already rolled out three fresh ones.

He could totally keep up with the speed of her and Mrs. Zhou.

"Then you don't even look at who it is. Your husband has practiced this skill for a long time to master it."

"That is, there is no dumpling shop in town. If there was, I would definitely apply for the job of making dumplings."

Zhou Yuesheng is not bragging, but with his speed and quality, who can compare with him?

At least he himself had never heard of anyone else in the village who had this ability.

"You are just like Wang Po, who is boasting about her melons!"

Mrs. Zhou rolled her eyes at her son in annoyance, but her daughter-in-law believed her and looked at her in admiration, which left her speechless.

Isn’t it just about rolling out two dumpling skins? What kind of skill is that?

Still want to go to town to work?

Who would open a shop without using their own family members instead of these peasants?

Mrs. Zhou kept complaining in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face.

Lin Wanwan listened to Zhou Yuesheng bragging and didn't think he was arrogant at all.

If you were the owner of a dumpling shop and knew there was a person who was particularly good at rolling dumpling skins, you would definitely want to recruit him.

Do the work of three laborers with the money of one laborer.

What kind of boss is stupid enough to push such talent out?

However, the restaurants in the town have already occupied most of the market. Even if they go to the town to sell dumplings, probably few people will eat them.

Their small town is too poor. If they could go to the city, maybe they would have some chance.

Forget it.

For the rest of her life, let her stay in the countryside and live a peaceful and pastoral life.

You can't be a strong woman in every world, working hard and desperately, and what will you get in the end?

Lin Wanwan was very open-minded. Since she had rarely traveled to a farmhouse, she would just live a good and quiet life like an ordinary person.

The dumplings were wrapped quickly. Old man Zhou came over in advance to scoop water into the pot, then started to light the fire silently.

Lin Wanwan will no longer be needed for what happens next.

She washed the flour off her hands, then went to the Zhou family's vegetable garden and picked some green onions.

I found the dried chilies hanging in the kitchen and chopped the green onions into fine pieces.

There was no garlic in that era, but this did not pose any difficulty for Lin Wanwan.

She took out two cloves of garlic from the space, peeled one, and then put it in a small clay pot and mashed it with a rolling pin.

Finally, I put all these things together. Since there was no soy sauce at home, I could only scoop some boiling hot dumpling soup into it.

Add a little bit of salt and the aroma will immediately come out.

"Let's eat!"

Mrs. Zhou had already started calling people. Lin Wanwan divided the prepared sauce into four portions and brought them to the table.

"Mom and Dad, this is the sauce I made. Dip the dumplings in it and they will taste better."

Lin Wanwan explained and sat down in her seat.

"Dumplings are best eaten while they're hot. Everyone, stop standing there and start eating."

Old man Zhou's mouth was already drooling.

Now that the dumplings were on the table, I couldn’t wait to pick one up and put it in the bowl of dipping sauce.

As Lin Wanwan said, I dipped the dumplings in it and put them in my mouth.

When you take a bite, the juice spreads in your mouth, mixed with the spicy taste of garlic and chili, it is so appetizing.

Old man Zhou chewed the dumpling twice quickly and swallowed it.

Then he immediately stuffed the remaining half into his mouth.

Eating it this way allows the remaining half of the dumplings to cool quickly.

At least you won't burn your mouth.

The other three were not far behind, each of them picked up a dumpling and ate it with the dipping sauce, which was so delicious.

"Daughter-in-law, what did you put in this? I think the white stuff doesn't look like chili peppers."

Mrs. Zhou ate three before she had time to ask about the doubts in her heart.

"That's garlic, brought from other places. We don't have much at home. I brought a few pieces with me when I got married this time."

"After a while, when the weather is cooler, break the garlic into cloves and bury them in the soil. They will grow again next year."

"Garlic is spicy and good for the body. It can eliminate bad things in the body."

"I heard that foreigners also hang garlic in the kitchen to ward off evil spirits."

Lin Wanwan told her family what she knew.

Mrs. Zhou and Old Man Zhou listened very carefully, and even Zhou Yuesheng stopped eating dumplings.

"So, this garlic is still a good thing!"

"Then we have to plant more this year, and it would be best if we could plant all the garlic cloves that you brought."

"You can't grow anything else in the winter anyway, so the land is just sitting there empty anyway."

Zhou Yuesheng smacked his lips, smelling the aroma of the meat filling and the fresh fragrance of shepherd's purse.

This bite of dumplings is really unforgettable.

"My son is right, daughter-in-law, you can save two pieces for later and let me keep the rest."

"I don't know if this garlic will attract bugs. If I don't clean it properly, it will be wasted if it is eaten by bugs!"

Although garlic is spicy, it is very appetizing when eaten.

It's the feeling that after taking a bite, you want to eat another bite.

This is because Lin Wanwan mashed the garlic into garlic paste and added other things. If the garlic cloves were eaten alone, Mrs. Zhou might not feel the same way.

"I'll bring the garlic to mom later. As long as it's not placed in a damp place, garlic will rarely get worms!"

Lin Wanwan told Mrs. Zhou about the storage environment of the garlic.

Then he began to eat dumplings quietly.

I remember the last time we ate dumplings was last time. This time, because we made more, each of the four of us ate a lot.

Old man Zhou ate without even raising his head, and only put down his chopsticks when he was almost done.

He eats fast, so he has to leave some for the children.
