Armor: I can only summon the general

Hua He rode his bicycle and took Meizhen to the door of the dumpling restaurant. At this time, the sun was already setting in the west.

It's not completely dark yet, but the dumpling restaurant has closed its door, as if it's closed.

"Hua He, didn't you say that Aunt Hui asked you to come for dinner? Why do I feel that the dumpling restaurant is closed?" Meizhen asked doubtfully.

Hua He glanced at the dumpling restaurant, then counted the days in his mind, and knew the reason.

"Meizhen, have you paid attention to the schedule of the piano competition held in our city?"

"Piano competition? Are you talking about the competition that Xinnan participated in? I really haven't paid attention to this. I've been really busy recently."

Meizhen shook her head. She was indeed a little busy these days and had a lot to do. For a while, she completely forgot about the Xinnan competition.

Hua He held Meizhen's hand while walking and said, "If I'm not mistaken, tomorrow should be the day of the Xinan competition, and we will have to get busy accordingly."

The two of them walked to the door of the dumpling restaurant. Hua He gently turned the door handle. Sure enough, the door was just closed and not locked. Then the two of them pushed the door open and walked in.

"Aunt Hui, Xinnan, we are here."

Hua He shouted loudly as soon as he entered the door.

After Aunt Hui heard the sound, she quickly put down the dumpling wrappers in her hand and walked out of the kitchen. When she saw Hua He and Meizhen, she asked them to sit down.

"Come on, Hua He, sit here, wait a moment, the dumplings will be ready soon."

"Hello Aunt Hui, my name is Meizhen."

Meizhen greeted Aunt Hui with a smile.

"Oh hello, come and sit. Just treat it as your own home. There is tea on the table. You drink it first while I go and get busy."

After saying that, Aunt Hui hurried back to the kitchen. After a while, Xinnan and Xiaolan walked out without putting down their sleeves.

"Hua He, Meizhen, you are here."

"Wow! Brother Hua He, your girlfriend is so beautiful." Xiaolan said exaggeratedly.

"Hello, little sister, you are also very beautiful. You will definitely be more beautiful than me in the future."

Meizhen walked to Xiaolan and gently touched her head. Xiaolan immediately took Meizhen's hand, and the two sat together and started chatting.

Xinnan smiled helplessly and pulled Hua He, who was left alone, to sit down next to him.

After Hua He sat down, he first asked about the competition.

"Xinnan, you have a competition tomorrow. How are you preparing?"

"I've prepared everything that needs to be prepared. It's already at this point. There's no point in cramming any more. Let's just see what happens tomorrow."

Xin Nan still smiled softly, with a relaxed expression on his face, and no longer had the worry as before.

Seeing him like this, Hua He felt a little more at ease. In fact, Xinnan's level was not low. It was just his experience, personality and other factors that made him lack a sense of calmness and confidence. But this was nothing. As he experienced There are more and more things happening, and he will gradually get better in the future.

"As long as you can think about it, I've actually said this before. You should have confidence in your own strength. As long as you perform smoothly during the competition, the first place will definitely be yours."

"I'll lend you some good words."

While the two were chatting, they saw Aunt Hui and Minci walking out of the kitchen carrying plates.

"Here comes the dumplings!"

The two put the dumplings on the table, along with some side dishes and dipping sauces.

"Come on, try the dumplings that Minci and I specially made."

Aunt Hui gave the chopsticks in her hand to others, and pinched Xiaolan's ears by the way.

"Xiaolan, eat quickly, the dumplings will get cold if you don't eat them." He turned to Meizhen and said, "Meizhen, come and try it too, let's chat while we eat."

"Okay Aunt Hui."

Meizhen replied obediently, as if she was also Aunt Hui's daughter.

"Minci, please go and sit down and chat with Xinnan and the others. I will do the rest."

Minci hummed, walked to the seat next to Xinnan and sat down. Aunt Hui also turned around and walked back to the kitchen to continue her work.

As soon as Minci sat down, she took over from Aunt Hui to greet everyone for dinner.

"Xinnan, Hua He, and Meizhen, please try the dumplings I specially prepared. This one is Enoki Mushroom, Bamboo Shoots and Shredded Chicken Dumplings. It was improved based on what Aunt Hui taught me. Come and try how it tastes. .”

Xinnan stretched out his chopsticks and took one into his mouth, chewing it carefully. Although he also participated in making the dumplings, this was his first time eating them.

"Well, the chopped enoki mushrooms are smooth and refreshing, and the crispy and tender texture of the bamboo shoots is also retained. The aroma of the chicken complements it. It tastes really good. Huahe, Meizhen, you should try it too."

"Okay, okay, let me try it."

Hua He stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a dumpling, turned his wrist and put it into Meizhen's bowl, then picked up the dumpling and fed it to his mouth.

Meizhen picked up the dumpling with chopsticks and took a bite, a happy smile immediately appeared.

"It tastes really good. This is my first time eating dumplings with this kind of filling."

Hua He swallowed the whole dumpling in one bite, puffed out his cheeks and chewed it, all kinds of aromas blooming on his taste buds.

Indeed, when it comes to dumplings, there are not many people in D City who can surpass the craftsmanship of Xingfu Dumpling House. It’s really hard to say.

People say that the highest praise for dumplings is "it's almost as good as my mother's", but Hua He has never eaten dumplings made by his mother since he was a child, so he can only make them by himself or eat them in restaurants outside.

Even so, he had only eaten it a few times. For him at that time, the price of dumplings was indeed a bit high compared to other foods. Even when Hua He was in the most difficult time, the price of a meal of dumplings was enough for him. Eat two full meals.

Therefore, ever since Hua He had eaten Aunt Hui's dumplings, he felt that no one could make better dumplings than Aunt Hui.

After swallowing a mouthful of dumplings, Hua He's hunger was infinitely amplified, and his body urged him to continue eating. He didn't say any more comments, but continued to pick up another dumpling.

Hua He kept putting the dumplings into his mouth, eating them one after another, his cheeks bulging but he kept chewing.

Seeing Hua He like this, Minci also smiled. Hua He's actions could express his thoughts better than words. Minci knew what he meant without speaking.

She reached for the teapot and refilled a glass of water for Hua He, then gently pushed it in front of Hua He.

"Eat Huahe slowly, there will be more later, be careful not to choke."

Hua He gave her an OK sign without raising his head, and continued to wave chopsticks with his other hand, making everyone laugh together.

After Minci poured water for Hua He, she took a pot and poured a glass of water for Meizhen.

"Meizhen, please eat more. Dumplings are very nutritious, so don't be afraid of gaining weight."

Meizhen smiled at her, and then started eating dumplings. She happened to have no dinner either. The dumplings were so delicious, she wanted to eat a few more bites. As for gaining weight, she had never been fat since she was a child. She was born eating. She is not fat, so she doesn't worry about getting fat at all.
