Elf: A bad trainer starts from farming

Chapter 184: The New Year dumplings are smashed (please vote for me)

Early the next morning, Danyu and Wuli came over again. As a thank you for sending apples yesterday, they also brought some homemade sticky cakes as a return gift.

"These are all made by our grandma. I wanted to go to Mozawa store to buy them, but they are not open today. They may be busy with New Year's matters."

"Then I'll accept it without mercy."

As he said that, Mingyu deliberately picked up a piece of purple sticky cake and tasted it. It was purple sweet potato flavored and very delicious. It was completely different from what he had eaten at the Moozawa store that day.

"strangeness……"

With doubts, he picked up another piece, which was stuffed with red bean paste. He could taste it. Only the purple sticky cake he had eaten a few days ago had a different taste.

I thought that after eating the sticky cake made by Xiao Zhao, I was not interested in other sticky cakes, but is that no problem? So whose problem is it?

When he started thinking about this, Dan Yu crossed his arms and looked a little unhappy: "Why are you so stunned? My grandma's cooking is not delicious!"

"No, it's quite delicious, just like what my grandma makes..."

"That's my grandma!"

"..."

After welcoming the siblings into the house, Dan Yu's eyes flashed past the group of Pokémon playing games, and finally landed on the ground not far away filled with red lanterns. A trace of curiosity flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly walked over.

"What is this? It looks good, a lantern for festivals?"

"It is a tradition in my hometown to hang red lanterns during the New Year, but I made a few more last night. If you like, you can take away a few small lanterns I made."

"Then I'll get it when I go back!"

Dan Yu has always been very thick-skinned and would never be polite to others.

Wuli also liked this red lantern. When he heard that his sister would take away a few, he was embarrassed to ask for more. After Mingyou noticed his gaze, he smiled lightly and asked, "Have you eaten yesterday's apple?"

"No, grandpa plans to eat it during the Chinese New Year tomorrow. He was surprised when he saw such a big apple."

"Haha, everyone has the same reaction. Since we are all here, let's make dumplings together and have this for lunch today. How about that?"

Mingyou jumped into the topic directly. This is what the siblings came here to do today. Danyu was looking forward to what it was. It sounded delicious...

First he needed to make dumpling wrappers, which he had been preparing after breakfast this morning.

He used almost all the flour he bought, then added salt, potato starch made from rat potatoes, egg whites and drinking water, stirred it, kneaded it until it was smooth and kneaded it into a ball, which would make the dough rise.

As Mingyou introduced it, he led them towards the dining table. Danyu quickly understood that it felt similar to making some pastries. The flour was kneaded into a ball and then stuffed into it.

"The principles are still very different..."

Mingyou didn't explain any more. At this time, Xiaozhao and Tongchun took out the fillings for making dumplings from the kitchen. There were many flavors in them, all made by Mingyou using fruits and vegetables from the manor.

"Is it almost ready to start?"

Xiaozhao was looking forward to it, but Mingyou didn't wait any longer, so he took out all the dough that had been cooked, and sprinkled the table with cornstarch to use as dough.

Everyone gathered around him and watched as he cut all the dough into strips, rolled it into rounds, rolled it into long pieces, and made out the dough... All the steps were very skillful, and the last pieces of dough were pushed by the rolling pin to form dumpling wrappers.

"It's that simple, have you learned it?"

"I'm done with my studies..."

"It's okay. I'll roll the dumpling wrappers and you guys can wrap them...and over there, if you have nothing to do, you can come over and make dumplings together!"

Mingyu looked at the little Kirbys who were playing games. Riolu soon ran over, and when they heard that this was for food, they all stopped to watch the game and swarmed over.

Wuli was startled by this posture. There must be too many Pokémon here...

"It seems that everyone is very interested. Then I will teach you a few times. The rest is up to you. It doesn't matter if you don't look good. The important thing is to participate."

With everyone watching, Mingyou demonstrated how to make dumplings. It was really easy, even Latias could learn it. Soon everyone was wrapping it together, but it would be difficult to finish it after a while.

Wuli's face was filled with curiosity. He took a spoonful of filling and put it on the dumpling wrapper, then carefully wrapped it up. Although it was easy to see Mingyou doing it, he could actually feel it was a little difficult with his hands.

However, he still completed it smoothly, but Dan Yu was not so smooth. There were too many fillings, which directly burst the dumpling wrapper.

"Sister, you can't put so much..."

"Trust me! I've figured it out!"

"..."

In addition to Latias, the second idiot here has appeared...

At this moment, Mingyou was teaching Qilulian and Lalulas very seriously. If they wanted to help roll out dumpling wrappers, they could control the rolling pin with telekinesis, which would save a lot of time.

Then he looked up and found that the place was unexpectedly lively. Not only the electric shock monsters, but also the employees of the haunted house, Gengar and Ghoststone, also joined in, and everyone made dumplings and smashed them together.

Only Dark Night Demon, who finally caught the chance and successfully monopolized the sofa, was playing video games...

"Haha, this dining table is obviously already very big, but now it looks like it's still small."

Mingyou sighed inexplicably.

"Wuwu~"

Look at me, look at me, idiot Mingyu, look at me!

Latias stood aside, with a look of expectation on her baby-fat face, holding a few dumplings made by herself in her hands. This was something she rarely made well, and it would be very disappointing if she didn't get praise.

Hearing the sound, Mingyou turned his head away, surprise flashed across his face: "The lace is beautifully knitted, I don't think I taught you this, right?"

"Wuwu~"

This is called self-taught. Latias raised her head slightly, with a happy face. Although she used her mental power to make tricks, at least she tried hard.

Then she deliberately stepped on the stool and cast a proud smile towards Dan Yu who was not far away.

Dan Yu: "!!!"

"Okay, don't make the guests angry."

Mingyu raised his hand and touched her head gently, but Latias was still not honest and wanted to continue looking for Riolu to show off the dumplings he made.

Xiaozhao was next to Mingyou at the moment. She noticed the lace dumplings made by Latias, and she had some thoughts of her own. So she turned sideways and asked, "By the way, this..."

"Ok?"

Mingyou also subconsciously turned his head to look, but at this moment, Latias, who was standing on the stool beside him, was so proud that he kept swinging his body. He didn't pay attention for a moment, and his body suddenly lost his balance.

Panic flashed across her face, and she instinctively wanted to find something to grab, but accidentally pushed him with her hand.

Mingyou's body leaned forward uncontrollably, and happened to collide with the body of the girl who turned around, and met the other's eyes looking this way, and was stunned at the same time. At this moment, the distance between their cheeks was less than five centimeters, and they could even clearly feel the heat on each other's faces...

"Uh……"

"Um……"

This was the first time that Mingyou looked at Xiaozhao at such a close distance, and the other party also felt a slight heat in his chest. Under this blurred gaze, both of them fell into silence, which lasted for a long time.

It wasn't until the little Kirby walking aside made a sound that the two finally came back to their senses. Their cheeks turned red, they looked away, and turned around with embarrassment.

"Gambi!"

You didn't buy any potato chips. You've finished eating the potato chips...

The little Cappy beast is holding a box of candies bought for the New Year. It is not responsible for making dumplings and smashing them, but is only responsible for eating them.

"I'll fry potato chips for you tonight!"

Xiaozhao quickly spoke up to relieve the embarrassment, and once again took the lead in saying what the other party wanted to say.

"Gambi~"

OK then……

Watching the little Kirby beast leave, Mingyou came back to his senses, but did not dare to look at Xiao Zhao. He just said softly: "Sorry, just now..."

"Well... let's make dumplings and smash them first."

Xiaozhao felt her heartbeat speeding up. Her mind was very confused. She didn't know how to talk to the other party on this issue, so she could only change the topic.

The two of them pretended that nothing happened. Fortunately, Dan Yu didn't see the scene just now, otherwise they would have been teased again. In order not to lose to Latias, the other party is trying hard to halve the fillings before filling...

With everyone's cooperation, all the dough was soon turned into dumplings. Riolu deserved the title as he was the fastest and best one. Although he used to be a gangster, he has now corrected himself and has become a very good person. A boy who is good at running a house.

Mingyu took some of them to the kitchen and prepared to cook dumplings for everyone's lunch. The dumplings made by each Pokémon had distinct images, making it easy to identify who made them.

After a while, he brought out the cooked and fried dumplings and seasonings. The aroma suddenly hit his nostrils, and the little Cappy beast instantly became energetic.

"Everyone has a share, so try the dumplings you made yourself."

"Gambi~"

The dumplings that had just been brought out were quickly divided. Since the pot was a bit small, they had to be cooked separately, so Mingyou continued back to the kitchen. Xiaozhao followed him and went to the kitchen to help so as not to be overwhelmed.

Wu Li looked at the dumplings he had made in the bowl, scooped them up with a spoon, blew on them, took a bite, and tasted the taste. His face instantly lit up.

"Delicious……"

Every bite is like a feast for the taste buds. The perfect combination of plump fillings, delicate dumpling wrappers and soup makes people intoxicated.

Dan Yu on the side also covered her face with enjoyment and said with a smile: "It smells so good. Is this really made by me? It turns out I still have this talent~"

"Sister, it seems that all the food you made was boiled down. The one you ate was made by sister Mingyou."

"..."

"Hmm~"

She looked at the ginkgo leaf-shaped dumplings in the bowl. They were all made by her. They were very cute.

Everyone is looking for their own dumplings to taste, but no matter who makes them, Ming Youtiao's fillings are destined to be the lowest, so everyone is very happy with their creations.

Xiao Zhao just came out of the kitchen and saw this scene. She couldn't help but smile and looked back at Ming You: "Is this what you planned for everyone to do together?"

"Haha, it's a festival. Naturally, everyone should put aside their worries and have fun together. Don't be too busy. Go eat over there and let me do the rest."

"is it?"

Xiao Zhao smiled, and when she walked to the dining table, she pressed him down on the seat, then looked at Chu Chun, and said with a smile: "Hold him down, don't let him run away, let me do the rest. Get busy."

"Eh!?"

"You are the one who should be here!"

Xiao Zhao patted him lightly on the shoulder, then turned and headed to the kitchen. This scene made both Dan Yu and Wu Li laugh out loud.

"Ugh……"

Mingyou smiled helplessly.

At this time, Tongchun handed the bowl in front of him, which contained the dumplings he had made, and wanted him to try it. Mingyou picked up a spoon, scooped up a piece, and put it in his mouth.

The faint fragrance of ponkan blooms instantly at this moment. This filling uses ponkan in it. After eating it, the whole person seems to feel refreshed.

"It's delicious. Did you make it?"

"Hmm~"

Fengchen nodded happily, Mingyou continued to taste with a look of relief, tears flashed in the corners of his eyes, and he did not hide the feeling in his heart... This was not enough, he had to do more for everyone, so that he could be worthy of it. Everyone likes it.

A lunch of only dumplings ended quickly in the lively and warm atmosphere. Danyu and Wuli stayed for a while longer, and after receiving some donated dumplings, the siblings said goodbye and left.

Tomorrow is the Chinese New Year, so there isn't much time. They plan to come over to play the day after tomorrow.

Just after returning to Green Town, Dan Yu didn't pay attention to some New Year decorations on the nearby streets. Instead, he paid more attention to the plastic bags containing dumplings in his hands and the few red lanterns he brought back.

"Haha, Naruyu is really nice. Every time I go there, I always bring back some good things."

Wuli was not as shameless as her, and complained loudly: "Isn't it good to always have sex for free?"

A hint of resentment flashed across Dan Yu's expression. Wouldn't it be better to wait two days before sending the gift back?

Just when she was about to answer this, her eyes suddenly noticed the direction of Moozawa store, and surprise flashed in her eyes: "Moozawa store is open. It seems that no one is competing with me now. Do you want to eat sticky cakes?"

"My grandma makes it at home."

“The ones sold at Mozawa stores are different!”

"This...that's okay."

The two siblings walked towards the Moozawa store together. At this moment, on a certain shelf inside the store, a gap opened in the middle of the dusty peach-shaped doll, as if it was split into two.

"Card!!!!"
