None of the five people had any awkward tempers, and they were very open-minded when no one else was around. After three drinks, the atmosphere at the table became warm and enjoyable.
At this time, they briefly put down their identities. The people sitting here were not princes, princesses, generals, marquises, and ladies, but just five passionate young people.
They talked from the reconstruction of the disaster area to the settlement of the people all the way to the court.
The Seventh Prince drank several glasses of wine, and now there was a faint blush on his face. He held the wine glass and said, "When we go back this time, we won't have any chance to get together again. I'm really reluctant to let it go."
Shen Lansui paused when he heard this. Yes, they are friends now. After returning to Yangdu, their identities will remain the same. It would be inappropriate to get closer again.
But if we say the most uncomfortable one, it’s Princess Rong Zhao, right?
She glanced at the people around her, and Rong Zhao noticed her gaze and looked over, as if he knew what she was thinking. Rong Zhao filled the cup for her and himself, raised his glass and clinked it with her.
"If you are happy in life, you must have all the joy, and don't let the golden cup stand empty against the moon."
Rong Zhao's eyes were filled with water, and he smiled freely: "It's good to be happy for a while, why do you think so much?"
Shen Lansui was startled for a moment, then smiled with relief and said: "Yes, there will be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Who knows the outcome until the last moment?"
Rong Zhao nodded, "Correct answer."
The porcelain cups collided and made a crisp sound. The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
When Lu Xingyue and Liang Ci saw this, they also drank in silence.
When the food was almost done, several people drank the sobering soup and got up to go to the isolation area.
The people in the quarantine area are also eating. The quarantine area has long been empty. The remaining patients have also been moved to the isolation area for mild cases. The seventh prince sent people to clean and disinfect this area in advance. It is very clean. Tonight There were several big Eight Immortals tables inside, and each table was full of people. Everyone gathered together to chat, and the loud chatter almost broke the roof.
Heat and aroma wafted out from the cracks in the doors and windows, and the big pot outside was still bubbling, stewing something unknown.
The carriage stopped at the door, and the people guarding the cauldron immediately gathered around and shouted: "The Seventh Prince and the miracle doctor are here!"
The people in the house immediately started to move, and everyone excitedly crowded to the door.
Shen Lansui and others got off the car one after another, and their hearts felt warm when they saw this scene.
The Seventh Prince stood at the front, and when he opened his mouth, he exhaled a large cloud of white mist. He waved his hands and said, "Everyone, come in, it's cold outside."
"Have you eaten, Your Highness? We are preparing to make dumplings!"
"Doctor Miracle, come in quickly, it's warm in our house!"
"General Liang..."
"Princess!"
The repeated calls were full of enthusiasm. Looking at the sound, there were smiling faces of excitement and joy.
Shen Lansui smiled and raised his hand, "Everyone is here, we are here to make dumplings and set off fireworks with everyone!"
"Move the stuff down!"
Rong Zhao gave an order, and the soldiers immediately moved down the fireworks and paper lanterns from the carriage behind.
The people were stunned for a moment, then cheered.
How can we call it Chinese New Year without fireworks?
Shen Lansui and Rong Zhao were taken to make dumplings, while Liang Ci, Lu Xingyue and the Seventh Prince were surrounded by others to set off fireworks.
As soon as Shen Lansui washed his hands and sat down at the table, there were sounds one after another outside.
"boom--"
She turned around and saw that the door was opened and the curtain was lifted. From her angle, she could just see a golden firework blooming.
Brilliant and colorful, fiery trees and silver flowers.
Although fireworks are short-lived and only beautiful for a moment, that moment is brilliant enough to be unforgettable.
The people all looked out, and the children gathered together to cheer and clamor to set off cannons.
Shen Lansui smiled and lowered his eyes, picked up a rolled out dough, looked at how other people were wrapping it, scooped out some meat filling and tried it, but couldn't get the pleats right. With a pinch of his hand, the dumplings transformed instantly. Dead bread, so ugly that people have nothing to say.
The person next to me: "..."
Shen Lansui: "..."
Rong Zhao laughed unceremoniously, "Mrs. Lu is so beautiful, but I didn't expect the dumplings to be so ugly."
Shen Lan's ears were slightly red, "Can the princess know how to wrap?"
Rong Zhao shook his head honestly: "No."
She is a princess and her fingers are not wet with spring water. Who can let her make dumplings? She was always waiting for food in the palace.
"But I looked at it, and I think it's not too difficult." Rong Zhao rolled up his sleeves, "Just wait and see."
She confidently picked up the dumpling wrapper, scooped out the meat filling and put it in the center of the dumpling wrapper like others did. Her gestures were very standard. Everyone looked forward to it and started to praise her even before she wrapped it.
"Princess's hand is right!"
"The princess is really smart!"
"It's good to be able to wrap it up like this for the first time."
Shen Lansui also looked at Rong Zhao curiously. Is she really a cooking genius?
The next moment, Rong Zhao exerted force on her hand, and the meat stuffing squeezed out from her fingers.
The surrounding area suddenly became quiet.
Shen Lansui: "..."
Rong Zhao: “…………”
I don't know who couldn't help but laugh, and everyone else laughed too. There was no malice, they just simply thought it was funny.
Shen Lansui patted Rong Zhao on the shoulder with his clean hand and said, "Princess, I can tell."
Rong Zhao: "..."
She let go of her hand and said, "I just packed a little too much. I will definitely pack it well next time!"
"Okay, okay, let's change the bag!" Shen Lansui suppressed a smile while rescuing the dumplings in her hand and handed them to the aunt next to her.
"Come on, come on, I'll teach you. It's very simple. Once you become proficient, you'll be fine."
A kind-hearted woman picked up the dough and demonstrated it carefully to them, telling them how much filling to put each time and how to pinch it with their hands. Finally, a angular and beautifully shaped dumpling was born in her hands.
She smiled and said, "Actually, it doesn't need to be wrapped to look good. In the end, it won't taste the same in the stomach? It just doesn't leak."
"That's right, as long as it tastes good, the shape doesn't matter." Shen Lansui smiled and gave Rong Zhao a piece of dough, "Here, let's try again."
This time, the two of them made the dumplings. They looked at each other and smiled, speeding up their movements.
Soon Lu Xingyue and the others came back and came over to look at the dumplings they were making.
The expressions of the three people were a little subtle.
Shen Lansui patted Lu Xingyue and said, "What's wrong? Doesn't it look good?"
Liang Ci and the Seventh Prince looked over immediately.
Lu Xingyue said without changing his expression: "It looks good."
After a pause, he added: "Like dumplings."
"Pfft--" The seventh prince couldn't hold back his laughter.
Shen Lansui glanced at him secretly, raised her hand and pinched Lu Xingyue's ear, and asked sullenly: "You say it again?"
Lu Xingyue burst out laughing and had to lean down slightly. He let Shen Lansui pinch it and said, "It's dumplings. Give them to me in a moment."
