Chapter 656: Chapter 657: Teaching Her How to Make Dumplings Step by Step
Only after Gu Qichen let go of her, did she react: “Gu Qichen, have you gone mad?”
“Since you called me a rogue, not acting one would be a loss.”
Gu Qichen seemed in high spirits, he walked straight into the house holding the basket of shepherd’s purse.
Xia Yangyang, on the other hand, was almost infuriatingly angry.
It was just too cold today.
Just now Xia Yangyang was so dazed by the cold that she forgot to push Gu Qichen away.
Xia Yangyang also followed him into the house.
Her grandma just happened to take out a pair of cotton shoes from the cupboard for Gu Qichen ,”These are the cotton shoes I just made a few days ago, see if they are warm. I used our homegrown cotton for these shoes, you can’t find them in stores.”
Gu Qichen put them on: “They are very warm. Thank you, grandma.”
As Xia Yangyang walked in, she grumbled, “Grandma, you’re never this nice to me.”
The old lady glanced at her, “Ah Chen has been visiting me every month for the past few years. As for you, you only called me twice in these years. I think Ah Chen is more worthy of my love than you. If I don’t favor him, who should I favor?”
At this, Xia Yangyang was left speechless.
These years, she was really grateful for everything that Gu Qichen had done.
In the afternoon, the four of them made dumplings together.
Xia Ye also learned it well.
Gu Qichen was an expert cook, so naturally, he had no problems.
On the other hand, Xia Yangyang, having been in the United States for years, seldom ate hand-wrapped dumplings.
She made a few chubby ones, but the grandma was quite vexed, “Look at the ones you’ve made, they look terrible.”
Xia Yangyang said, “Grandma, you know I’m not good at cooking.”
“Then what are you good at, just eating? Ah Chen really spoils you, Ah Chen, you teach her.”
Then, he made a dumpling in front of Xia Yangyang.
He was skillful and fast.
But Xia’s eyes were focused on his hands.
Gu Qichen’s hands were very good-looking. His fingers were slender and distinct, like a jade stick.
But Xia Yangyang was looking at his ring finger.
His hands were clean, and he was not wearing a ring.
Did he really cancel his engagement with Xi Zijun?
Xia Yangyang was in a daze.
But was quickly snapped out of it by a knock on the head by her grandma’s chopstick, “I asked you to focus on learning, but what are you thinking about?”
Xia Yangyang came back to her senses, “Grandma, I can’t learn this.”
Xia was never good at cooking.
Some people just don’t have talent or interest.
And Xia Yangyang thought that although her dumplings were not as perfect as Gu Qichen’s, they were barely acceptable, at least they were edible.
Her grandma had never been this picky with her before.
Yangyang’s grandma said frustratedly, “I’m doing this for your good. You eat hamburgers and bread every day in the States, there’s no nutrients in those, even if you don’t consider for yourself, you should also think about my precious great-grandchild. You must learn to make these for him in the future.”
She spoke to Gu Qichen in an almost commanding tone, “Ah Chen, you must teach this stupid girl well, teach her hands-on. You are not allowed to have dinner until she learns to make it.”
After finishing her words, grandma took the dumplings that had already been wrapped to the kitchen to boil.
Gu Qichen lifted his eyebrows and went straight to Xia Yangyang, circled his arms around her from behind, and then grabbed her hands, “I’ll only teach you once, you better not make me miss dinner.”
Xia Yangyang wanted to refuse at first.
But Gu Qichen also seemed reluctant and impatient.
So Xia reluctantly started learning.
But their hands-on teaching posture was indeed a little awkward.
