Chapter 56 Spring Festival (Part )
  This year’s Spring Festival happens to be on Friday.

This is Tokyo, and Rika Shona will not be given an extra day off because of this holiday.

On Thursday night, after dinner, Chen Ling said those words again: "Can I also ask for leave from studying today?"

This is just being honest and not doing your job properly!
  "doing what?"

Rika Shona had just taken out the fifth volume of Chen Ling's long-lost "100% Love Comedy" from her schoolbag, and had to close it again.

"Making dumplings...how do you say this in Japanese?"

There are also dumplings here in Neon, but usually the fillings are only pork and cabbage.

He, Chen Ling, has to let the young lady see the breadth and depth of dumpling culture today.

"Make dumplings."

In the end, English was used. If possible, he also wanted to communicate in the local language as much as possible.

"Oh."

Chen Ling stood up and took out a lot of things for making dumplings from the refrigerator.

"As for Lixiang, you can continue reading or doing homework. I can do it alone."

Out of revenge, Chen Ling pretended to "accidentally" click on the eldest lady.

Who told her to read comics right after eating? What about her homework?

"The homework is done."

The eldest lady was kind enough to explain.

"in school?"

She had already opened the comic and continued reading.

Okay, it’s really shameful to finish homework in advance at school.

He is the type of student that Chen Ling envies and hates.

But has this happened before?

Maybe I want to go home and read comics in peace.

Chen Ling first kneaded the dough, covered it with a layer of plastic wrap to rest, and then started making dumpling fillings.

Wash the mushrooms and pork dumplings and chop into small pieces.

Before going up to the intensity level, Chen Ling specifically asked Sister Lixiang.

"Do you mind if the sound is too loud? Will it affect other residents?"

The black-haired girl in casual clothes shook her head.

Since it is a high-end apartment, the sound insulation effect must be in place.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be embarrassing if the squeaking sound of someone's bed one night was heard by the whole floor?

Oh, don’t get me wrong, I’m talking about the sound of tossing and turning in bed.

Or... the sound of piling.

Well, this refers to the sound of decoration.

The sound of chopping the dumpling fillings was intermittent, and it took about ten minutes, because there was only one kitchen knife at home, and no matter how sharp it was, it would not be as efficient as two.

It's finally over, otherwise I'd be sorry for the hand speed of "playing games" over the years.

Put the pork filling into a ball into a bowl.

Rolling out the dough and filling are two things that have to be done one at a time.

Chen Ling thought for a moment and poked his head out of the kitchen.

"Lixiang~"

The eldest lady looked at him distractedly, her eyes seemed to be asking for the reason for calling her.

"Are you free now? (Japanese)"

"You said you could handle it yourself."

But Rika Shona still closed the comic book.

"You're so cool, but you can't stand alone after all."

This sentence is in Chen Ling's dialect, but you can still understand it at the beginning.

Why don't you put down your books and come over to help?

I know that the eldest lady is the best to me.

"What do you need me to do?"

She rolled up her sleeves on her forearms little by little, and her slender and beautiful hands couldn't help but attract Chen Ling's attention.

Sorry, the sharp eyesight unique to the veteran driver.

"You do this."

Chen Ling showed Lixiang how to stir the dumpling fillings. The seasonings had been put in just now.

This job is easier than rolling out the dough. The rolling pin has to be moved around, which is not very friendly to the hand, and the dough is not too thick or too thin.

"I'm going to do this."

Rika Shona pointed at the rolling pin on the table.

"This? It might be a bit difficult for Lixiang." "I'm curious."

Then make a curious expression!

Can't you do anything with this expression?

Okay, okay, just pick the hardest thing to do.

A rebellious person, right?
  Anyway, if the dough is not rolled out well enough, it can be remade, which is not a big problem.

It took Chen Ling less than half an hour to get the eldest lady to roll out usable dough relatively steadily.

It's not that Lixiang doesn't have strong learning ability, it's that Chen Ling's language is too bad and he doesn't know how to teach her.

After another ten minutes, Chen Ling had already prepared the dumpling fillings, and the eldest lady had only used less than a third of the dough.

He only had a rolling pin and he couldn't help.

"How about you make dumplings?"

"Make dumplings?"

The feeling of babbling is really not exciting.

Chen Ling nodded.

Spread some flour on your hands to prevent them from sticking. Spread the round dough in the palm of your hand. Use chopsticks to pick up an appropriate amount of meat filling and place it in the middle of the dough. Then close the dough and pinch out the folds little by little. Use the stickiness of the dough to close the gaps. .

This is the whole process of making dumplings.

If you wrap it with the chopsticks and pull it out, it will become a wonton, but the skin will be thicker.

It's just so amazing.

Chen Ling left the place to Rika Shona and rolled out the dough herself, which was much more efficient.

There is no talent, it's just that practice makes perfect.

He can indeed go to the hall and go to the kitchen.

Rika Shimona is imitating Chen Ling's technique in a decent manner, but she is not proficient enough and even after doing it several times, she still can't stick it tightly.

Hey hey hey, did you scratch your face with your hands? Why is there flour on your face?

"There's flour on my face."

Chen Ling pointed at his face.

Lixiang just glanced at his actions, and then continued to lower her head to do things.

So informal?

The pretty face with a little flour on it is unexpectedly more lively.

Such a young lady who is willing to do things and doesn't mind the trouble can't be found even if I look for her with a lantern at night.

Chen Ling rolled out a few more pieces of dough and found that the eldest lady had just wrapped two dumplings, and each one had a unique shape and didn't feel tightly wrapped.

He stopped what he was doing, and Lixiang seemed to be struggling with the thing in her hand, not noticing that Chen Ling had come behind him and looked at him.

I can't stand this method.

Leaning over slightly, Chen Ling stretched out his hands and gently held the back of Rika Rika's hands from below.

Slightly cool and delicate.

"Listen, you have to do this first, then this, and finally this."

He whispered into the black-haired girl's ear, and at the same time he could smell Lixiang's warm and elegant scent.

But Chen Ling was in Cao Ying and his heart was in Han, and he only wanted to teach the eldest lady how to make dumplings.

Sorry, all straight men are like this.

The hand holding the back of Lixiang's hand was also manipulating those beautiful little hands, instructing her on how to wrap a dumpling tightly and beautifully.

The two fingers were touching, and Lixiang could feel the temperature of Chen Ling's palm.

Although this kind of behavior often occurs in kindergarten, when teachers teach children how to hold a pen, but now, we are no longer children, and Chen Ling is no longer a teacher.

He is a man.

The childlike Lixiang said nothing. She watched her big fingers holding her little fingers and pinching beautiful folds on the dumpling skin, and she couldn't help but feel a little lost.

Chen Ling was speaking attentively when his mind suddenly recalled the scene where the eldest lady asked him to hold hands some time ago.

When he came back to his senses, he found that Rika Shona's flour-covered hands were lying in her palms.

…….Sorry, I didn’t pay much attention.

He retracted his hand without leaving a trace.

Being silent means that he has no other ideas.

"Aren't you going to teach?"

"You... try it first."

"We've obviously held hands, but now you care?"

The eldest lady said without any emotion.

This, this is not fun to talk about...

I only hate that you are like a piece of wood, dear sister Lixiang.
