Lin Ruan looked at the mountain of gifts, helpless and moved.

Chongguan County is so poor, and these people still remember her. Naturally, these gifts are not valuable things, they are all food grown by the people themselves and wild things that they have hunted. But these worthless things are so heavy.

Lin Ruan asked people to put these gifts into the warehouse, and they couldn't stand it, so they hurriedly ate them.

It's all a piece of the people's hearts, and if she doesn't accept it, it will hurt their hearts.

Fortunately, the green calyx did things very properly, and the gifts received were recorded. Lin Ruan asked people to prepare some thank-you gifts, and gave a copy back to the people who gave gifts.

It's not a lot of money, it's more cloth and meat. These things are all used for the New Year, and they are the most tangible gifts for the people.

When the people received the return gift, they were so excited that they knelt down and thanked them.

They never expected that the princess would give them a gift in return. The things they gave to the princess were not worth anything at all, they were all grown in their own fields, and such things, to be honest, when they gave them out, they were worried that the princess would not like them.

After all, she is a princess, and she is no different from a fairy in the sky. How can the fairies in the sky look down on all things on this earth?

Unexpectedly, the princess's maids solemnly accepted the things they sent, and now the princess has returned the gift to them. Being valued by the princess like this, how can they not be excited. How can a princess who loves the people like a son so much not respect and like them!

Lin Ruan didn't expect that his behavior would raise his reputation among the people to a higher level again, and after arranging trivial matters, he accompanied Xiao Jingchen and Xiuxiu for the New Year with peace of mind.

Naturally, the Chinese New Year in Northern Xinjiang is not lively in Kyoto, and Northern Xinjiang is too cold, and there is snow everywhere, and there are not many people on the streets of the county during the day.

And there is not much to eat here, but fortunately, Lin Ruan brought some things back when he went back to Kyoto, so that this year was not so simple.

On the evening of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Lin Ruan asked the mother-in-law in the kitchen to prepare more dumpling filling, and made some noodles, and Zhang Luo took the girls to vacate the flower hall, and a group of people gathered together to make dumplings.

Xiao Jingchen was drinking tea and reading a book in the study, when a little guy suddenly came to knock on the door: "Lord, princess, please come over." ”

"But what's the matter?"

The little servant lowered his head and said, "The princess said that you will know when you go over." ”

Xiao Jingchen thought that there was something over there, so he got up and went over, but as soon as he appeared, he was pulled over by Lin Ruan and pressed on the table, and then a dumpling skin was stuffed into his hand.

"Everyone is making dumplings, don't be lazy. Pack more, and let people send them to the barracks tomorrow and distribute them to the soldiers. ”

Xiao Jingchen looked at the dumpling wrapper in his hand in disbelief, and his mind was suddenly a little confused.

Making dumplings?!

He has lived to be almost thirty years old now, and he never thought that he would make dumplings one day!

Lin Ruan saw that he didn't move, and urged twice: "Don't be stunned, hurry up." ”

Poor dignified Xiao Wangye, I don't know how many lives have been harvested with one hand, and it is as easy as chopping people's heads as cutting vegetables and melons, but now it is rare to let a thin dumpling skin and I don't know what to do.

The girls looked at Xiao Wangye's face, his expression was so serious that he seemed to go into battle to kill the enemy, and he couldn't scare the dumplings into closing them, he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and he tried his best to endure it, for fear of laughing out loud.

Lin Ruan looked at his bitter and hateful appearance, and couldn't help but laugh: "Don't defend it so tightly, the skin will be broken in a while." Lighten it a little, so put the stuffing in the middle, put the skin together, hold the ends, and squeeze it in the middle. Or pinch the middle first, then the sides. ”

As he spoke, he personally gave him a demonstration.

Xiao Jingchen watched her fingers flip flexibly, and the plump white and fat dumplings were wrapped in less than two days.

It looks very simple, not difficult, but when he wrapped it himself, he either didn't pinch the skin together because of the strength, or he used persuasion to pinch the dumplings.

Lin Ruan glanced at the "dumplings" he had wrapped, and said with disgust: "You can eat these yourself!" ”

Xiao Jingchen: ......

The girls watched Xiao Wangye eat deflated, and they couldn't help laughing and laughing so much that their shoulders twitched.

Xiao Jingchen had a dark face, as if he was about to get angry and flip the table at any time, but he sat patiently and picked up another dumpling wrapper.

He still doesn't believe it, what kind of difficulties in his life can't be solved, a small dumpling, is it possible that he really can't wrap it?

After staring at Lin Ruan's movements for a while, and summing up the experience very seriously, Xiao Jingchen carefully wrapped one again.

The little girls all stopped and watched Xiao Jingchen's movements intently.

This time, it finally worked. Although it is still ugly, at least it is not broken and tight.

Lin Ruan did not hesitate to praise: "Not bad, not bad, there is progress." Pack a few more and find the feeling. ”

Xiao Jingchen didn't say a word, put the ugly dumplings in the pile of crooked melons and cracked dates before, and picked up another dumpling skin.

Sure enough, practice makes perfect. After wrapping three or four dumplings in a row, Xiao Jingchen mastered the method, and the more he wrapped, the better it looked.

The good-looking dumplings were naturally treated differently, and they were very solemnly placed on the tray in front of Lin Ruan.

He admired himself for a moment, and then looked up at Lin Ruan.

Lin Ruan felt that he really looked like a big dog waiting for the master's praise, if it weren't for the fact that the flower hall was full of maids at this time, she would have to hold his head and rub his long black and smooth hair.

But when the man wanted to ask for a compliment, she couldn't ignore it, so she reached out and tapped him on the nose.

She couldn't help but laugh when she clicked it.

She had a lot of flour on her hands, and the fabric was on the tip of his nose.

It's over, it's more like a big dog now.

Lin Ruan felt that he couldn't hold back the urge to stroke the dog's head, so in order to save his face, he quickly wiped off the flour with his sleeve when the maids didn't see it.

Such a cute look, she can only enjoy it alone!

Xiao Jingchen looked at her expression with a little arrogance, and her eyes were tender.

The girls are actually not blind, but they are very clever, they know what to see and what not to see, and when they see the love between the two masters, no one turns their heads to bother.

The master is affectionate, and the happiest people are the green calyx, Jinluan and Angelica dalian.

These three little girls were worried about Xiang Ruyue's incident some time ago, for fear that the two masters would have a disagreement.

Now that they can finally put their hearts back in their stomachs, the relationship between the two masters is good, and Xiang Ruyue's lowly and shameless thing is not worth worrying about at all.
