Chapter 108: Finding a Marriage for Li Yanming
Li Yanming returned home, looked at Qiao Xiaoxi, and asked gently, "Girl, what do you want to eat?"
Qiao Xiaoxi smiled slightly and replied softly: "Don't we eat dumplings on Qingming Festival?" Her smile bloomed like a spring flower, making people feel extremely warm.
Li Yanming nodded, turned and walked towards the kitchen to prepare the ingredients.
He picked up the kitchen knife skillfully and started chopping the stuffing.
Qiao Xiaoxi was not idle either. She walked to the flour barrel, scooped out an appropriate amount of flour and placed it on the chopping board.
Just as she was about to start kneading the dough, Li Yanming hurried over and said, "Miss, you don't have to do it, I can do it."
Qiao Xiaoxi still had a smile on her face and said softly, "Okay, Brother Li, knead the dough." Her voice was clear and pleasant, like the sound of nature.
Li Yanming thought to himself, this girl not only knows how to eat dumplings, but also knows how to knead dough, so she must not be a monster.
Could it be that... she is an immortal?
This thought flashed through Li Yanming's mind, but he did not dwell on it too much.
At this moment, Li Yanming just wanted to take good care of this special girl and make delicious dumplings for her.
Qiao Xiaoxi and Li Tianyou, each holding a sharp kitchen knife, stood in front of the thick wooden board, ready to start chopping the stuffing.
There was a crisp sound as the knife rose and fell, and the stuffing was quickly chopped up.
I have to say that Li Yanming is indeed very skillful and efficient when doing his work.
Li Yanming was kneading the dough skillfully. His powerful hands kneaded and pressed the dough repeatedly. After a while, the originally rough dough became extremely smooth, like a round pearl.
Qiao Xiaoxi took a piece of kneaded dough from Li Yanming and gently pulled it to divide it into two equal parts.
He handed a portion to Li Tianyou with a smile, and then they each took a piece of dough and started rolling it into strips.
Their fingers danced nimbly, rolling the noodles into thin and long pieces.
Then, Qiao Xiaoxi skillfully picked up the dough pieces of uniform size and gently flattened them with her palms.
Qiao Xiaoxi picked up a rolling pin and started rolling the dough skillfully.
Her movements were light and graceful, and the rolling pin flew up and down in her hands. In the blink of an eye, sheets of dough as thin as a cicada's wing appeared before her eyes.
At this moment, the kitchen is filled with rich aroma, making people salivate.
Qiao Xiaoxi and Li Tianyou were immersed in this joyful atmosphere, enjoying the fun of making delicious food together.
Li Yanming mixed the stuffing and then gently placed it on the table.
"Girl, let me roll out the dumpling wrappers. This is a physically demanding job. Let Brother Li do it."
Qiao Xiaoxi smiled and nodded, then she and Li Tianyou sat on both sides of the table.
Qiao Xiaoxi began to patiently teach Li Tianyou how to make dumplings.
Li Tianyou learned very quickly and mastered the basic skills in a short time.
Seeing this, Qiao Xiaoxi continued to teach Li Tianyou how to make dumplings in various shapes.
Li Tianyou followed suit with great interest, making each dumpling very delicately.
Li Yanming was rolling the dumpling skins attentively, occasionally looking up to look at Qiao Xiaoxi and Li Tianyou, his eyes filled with gentle smiles.
Seeing the two of them as happy as children, competing in making dumplings, Li Yanming couldn't help but feel a sweet joy in his heart.
In this warm atmosphere, everything seems to become extraordinarily beautiful.
The dumplings were wrapped in a short while.
Li Yanming got up and went to the kitchen to prepare dumplings.
Qiao Xiaoxi pulled Li Tianyou and enthusiastically played the spinning game with Qiao Xiaohei.
Just as the two were having fun, they inadvertently saw Widow Zhang standing at the gate of the courtyard looking inside.
Qiao Xiaoxi immediately greeted her warmly: "Sister Zhang, come and try the dumplings we cooked today!"
Widow Zhang smiled and nodded, then stepped into the yard.
Seeing this, Qiao Xiaoxi hurriedly brought a stool and asked Widow Zhang to sit down and rest.
This widow Zhang is Li Yanming’s new love!
You’re welcome, sister!
Qiao Xiaoxi feels sorry for Li Tianyou's mother.
But I couldn't bear to see Li Yanming die alone.
Widow Zhang looked at Tianyou with a smile.
"Tianyou is getting more and more beautiful as he grows older."
Li Tianyou raised his rosy little face.
"Hello, Aunt Zhang. Come and have dumplings at our house. Daddy's dumplings are delicious."
Qiao Xiaoxi also quickly praised.
"Our big brother Li makes everything delicious and he works efficiently. If Sister Zhang wants to eat fresh buns, come to my house in the morning."
Li Yanming was cooking dumplings in the house. The steaming vapor filled the air, filling the whole room with warmth and fragrance.
Listening to what Qiao Xiaoxi and Li Tianyou said outside, I felt a little confused. What on earth did these two mothers mean?
Widow Zhang stood aside, staring at Qiao Xiaoxi, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a tacit smile.
Qiao Xiaoxi looked at Widow Zhang with suspicion, her heart full of doubts.
He frowned, studying the other person's smile, trying to decipher its meaning.
"This...what does this mean?" Qiao Xiaoxi finally couldn't help but ask.
Widow Zhang still didn't say anything, but her smile became brighter.
Qiao Xiaoxi suddenly had a feeling that Li Yanming was like a commodity in her hands, which she was eager to sell to Widow Zhang.
This idea made Qiao Xiaoxi very confused.
Li Yanming and Widow Zhang have become good friends since Tianyou's mother came.
This widower and his wife have long been deeply in love.
Why does Widow Zhang look like she's suffered a loss?
Qiao Xiaoxi was a little confused.
Widow Zhang thought that Qiao Xiaoxi was pretending not to understand.
Smile in your heart, pretend, pretend, pretend!
The little girl was a little naive and pretended not to understand.
But it's all written on his face.
I want my mother to accept Li Yanming.
Even a fool can see this little trick.
Widow Zhang smiled and looked at Li Tianyou.
"Tianyou, go play somewhere else. Aunt Zhang and Tianyou's mother should have a few private words."
Li Tianyou hugged Qiao Xiaoxi's arm.
"Aunt Zhang, if you have anything to say, please talk to me tomorrow. I want to play with you. I have to go to school this afternoon!"
Qiao Xiaoxi pinched Li Tianyou's little face.
He smiled at Widow Zhang and said, "Okay, I'll listen to Sister Zhang tomorrow."
Then, he picked up Li Tianyou with both hands.
"Come on, mother will play with the older son."
Li Tianyou chuckled.
"Put me down quickly, mother. I can't hold the child."
Qiao Xiaoxi also giggled.
"I can't hold you anymore. When you're two years older, mom will be able to hold you too."
Widow Zhang watched the mother and son making noises and listened to their clear laughter.
He cried bitterly: "Ms. Li Qiao, when a son grows up, he will avoid his mother."
Qiao Xiaoxi was very happy.
"Why is the child avoiding his mother? He is only eight years old, why is he avoiding his mother?"
Qiao Xiaoxi carried Li Tianyou on her back and chased after Qiao Xiaohei, talking as she ran.
"This child has never had a mother to hold him since he came out of the womb. Now, I am Tianyou's mother. I will provide Tianyou with everything he lacks."
Widow Zhang shook her head.
"What a little girl, confused mother."
Qiao Xiaoxi wanted to say something to Widow Zhang.
If your heart is pure, everything you see will be pure.
Come to think of it, this is Li Yanming’s lover, so forget it!
It’s not the sister-in-law’s turn to discipline her brother’s wife!
