Just arrived home, Tang Yue was about to get out of the car when Si Yu caught her hand and said, "Xiao Yue, I can’t go home with you."
"Why?" Tang Yue looked at Si Yu with a puzzled expression and instinctively glanced at his still unhealed wound. His injury hasn’t healed; does he need to go back to the company?
"The matters entrusted by Hei Biao are very important, so I need to supervise," Si Yu explained, his eyes showing guilt. He had promised to accompany her for grocery shopping and dumpling making, but he had broken his word again.
"Does it have to be you?" Tang Yue was a bit worried; that person was too terrifying.
"But I’m the most familiar with him." Si Yu held her hand, about to persuade her, when Tang Yue looked up with bright eyes and said, "Alright, you’re going to supervise and command, you don’t have to personally take charge, right?"
"Right." Si Yu nodded.
"Then you go. We can have a dumpling-making contest next time just the same," Tang Yue said with a deliberately relaxed tone, repeatedly reminding him, "You must be careful."
"Okay, I promise not to get hurt," Si Yu said earnestly and confidently.
Tang Yue waved to Si Yu. To avoid making him feel bad, she teased him with a smile, "When you come back, who knows, the shrimp dumplings might be all eaten by us."
Zaozao and Chenchen especially love dumplings, particularly shrimp dumplings, which are their favorites.
"Then I’ll eat yours," Si Yu said with a meaningful tone.
It wasn’t until Tang Yue entered the house that she realized, how was Si Yu going to eat hers?
"Zaozao, Chenchen, we’re having dumplings tonight!" Tang Yue entered with the ingredients, greeted warmly by the enthusiastic children.
Lian He had already been discharged from the hospital; aside from not bumping his wound, he could walk without any issues and was currently staying at Tang Yue’s house.
"Mom, I want you to make them," Chenchen loved to act spoiled in front of Tang Yue and suddenly stretched her neck to ask, "Mom, why hasn’t Dad come back?"
Though he had gone too, wasn’t it said that Dad could stay at home for a long time?
"Your dad has some business; we’re making dumplings ourselves," Tang Yue washed all the ingredients while Ding Ling helped out.
Tang Zhengde and Zhang Hualian were busy at the restaurant, leaving Tang Yue and Lian He at home with the two kids, and Lian Qingyang had gone to the company and hadn’t returned.
Making dumplings isn’t difficult; the challenge is in preparing the filling. When the filling is done well, the dumplings turn out delicious.
Tang Yue finished making the dumplings, cooked them, and then Lian Qingyang returned.
"Sis, did you make shrimp dumplings?" Lian Qingyang immediately recognized the smell as Tang Yue’s dumplings; Mom liked to make chive-filling dumplings and rarely made shrimp ones.
"You really know how to pick the time; come quickly, they’re just finished." Tang Yue was scooping the cooked dumplings out of the pot while instructing Lian Qingyang, "Wash your hands and take a bowl to Dad first."
"Alright."
Eating dumplings always made Lian Qingyang particularly enthusiastic.
"Smells great." Lian Qingyang held the dumplings, hot and steaming, making the aroma instantly make him feel hungry.
"Dad, time for dumplings!"
Lian Qingyang placed the dumplings on the table, shouting towards the living room.
Before Lian He could respond, Zaozao and Chenchen had already run over, especially Chenchen, who clapped her hands excitedly at the sight of the dumplings, saying, "I love the dumplings mom makes."
