It was really not Li Mumu who made the dumplings stuffed with chestnuts, but Mother Gu.

Therefore, Gu's mother said at this time: "The combination of chestnut stuffing and red date stuffing means early establishment of children."

In the Gu family, it is obvious that no one here has yet given birth to a child.

Gu Shangqing smiled helplessly and said: "Mom, you blame me for this. I am in the military camp all the time and have few opportunities to go home."

"I'm not rushing you." Mother Gu explained, "Since it has a good meaning, I added it together."

"I also know that you get together less and stay apart more, so I can't force you to come." Mother Gu said, "You don't need to feel any pressure."

"Come and eat dumplings. Let's see who is lucky enough to eat the one with the copper inside first." Gu's mother said.

Including Gu Xiuxiu, the three children were all eager to eat.

Gu Xiuxiu got one first.

"I think Xiuxiu, this child, must be able to make money just like her third aunt." Zhang Caiping said, "On weekdays, she likes to learn to calculate accounts from me, and now she is the first to get copper coins."

Gu Xiuxiu was very happy when she heard this, "Third aunt is my role model."

When Gu Boyuan and Gu Baijin saw that Gu Xiuxiu had eaten, they were immediately anxious.

Unfortunately, the two of them were young and had small appetites, so they couldn't even eat anything with copper coins.

On the contrary, Gu Boyuan ate a rice cake filling.

Gu Baijin ate something filled with brown sugar.

Even after telling Gu Boyuan that the rice cake fillings had a very good meaning, Gu Boyuan still refused to give in.

Seeing the two of them in such a hurry.

Li Mumu was also observing secretly, and finally found two dumplings whose skins were pierced by copper plates, revealing the edges of the copper plates inside.

Then he took them out quietly and put them in two bowls.

He also placed two dumplings on top, covering it a little, and then handed it to Gu Boyuan and Gu Baijin, "Would you try these two bowls again? I think these two bowls will definitely be available."

Gu Baijin couldn't hold on anymore, but he didn't want to give up yet. He took the bowl and asked uncertainly: "Really?"

"If you haven't eaten it yet, you can't eat it." Li Mumu said, "Otherwise it will make you feel uncomfortable. But I think there will definitely be two bowls."

Gu Boyuan took a deep breath and took another bowl, "I'll try it again. If I can't eat it, I won't eat it."

"Okay." Gu Baijin nodded immediately after Gu Boyuan.

The two of them ate the top dumpling first.

After eating, the torn dumplings hidden underneath were revealed.

A little edge of the copper plate was exposed from the leather.

"I have it!" Gu Baijin said excitedly.

"I have this bowl too!" Gu Boyuan picked up the dumplings. The copper plate was clearly exposed, but he deliberately bit the copper plate and took it out.

Li Mumu picked up a small plate. There were already six coins in it, which were all eaten earlier.He asked the two little ones to put the copper plates they had just eaten into the plates, and then asked the cook to boil hot water, pour it into the plates, and soak the oil stains on the copper plates.

"Okay, now that all the coins have been eaten, you two can feel relieved." Gu's mother said, "Go and have a rest."

Everyone yawned and went back to their rooms.

The next day, the Gu family went to their neighbors' homes early in the morning to pay New Year's greetings.

Gu Shangqing took Li Mumu to General Shang's mansion.

Li Mumu took two jars of fruit wine from home.

There was a jar each of plum wine and hawthorn wine, and they set off with Gu Shangqing.

In the carriage, Li Mumu discussed with Gu Shangqing, "Husband, do you think it would be appropriate for me to go to the General's Mansion to find Miss Li?"

"Before, at the General's Mansion, Miss Li was sincere, just to express her gratitude to us, but she was so considerate, and she was always thinking about us." Li Mumu said, "And she also said that she would talk to me more in the future. Contact. I see that Ms. Li’s attitude is not a polite one.”

"It's just that even though Miss Li said so, I'm embarrassed to do it." Li Mumu said, "But I'm worried that since Miss Li has said so, it's not good for us to not express our position for a long time. So. I thought I would take the opportunity of New Year greetings to give Miss Li a greeting card. If she replies, I will go to see her with two jars of fruit wine."

Two jars of fruit wine were not that expensive, but they were brewed by her own hands, and they could convey her feelings well.

"Madam has been extremely thoughtful in this regard." Gu Shangqing said, "Just do as Madam said."

"But Miss Li mainly wants to interact with Madam, and it's not convenient for me to go. Madam doesn't need to worry about it being the General's Mansion. She's just interacting with Miss Li in her own name, so she doesn't need to worry about that much."

"Okay." Li Mumu nodded.

The carriage stopped in front of General Shang's mansion, and the two entered the mansion.

When Mrs. Shang saw the two bottles of fruit wine brought by Li Mumu, she immediately narrowed her eyes with a smile, "Shang Qing gave me two jars of fruit wine for my general to bring back for me to drink. After I drank it, I felt it was very delicious. I don't like drinking at all. People can’t help but have a drink every night.”

"No, it didn't take long to drink it." Mrs. Shang said with a smile, "My husband also said that I would ask Shang Qing for it after drinking it, but I am not as shameless as him. You must not have time to brew the fruit wine. Too much. I heard that you sell fruit wine in your store, but it’s just a small bottle, not such a big jar. But it’s good to buy it for people to satisfy their cravings.”

"You are too polite." Li Mumu said with a smile, "If you want a drink, feel free to ask General Shang to ask Shang Qing to get it."

"In this way, from now on I don't care whether you have finished drinking here. I guess it's about time, so I will send two jars." Li Mumu said with a smile, "It's just that by then, if the frequency of coming here becomes more frequent, Please don’t bother me.”

"How could it be annoying?" Mrs. Shang took Li Mumu's hand and said, "If this continues, I'm afraid I will become an alcoholic."

Here, General Shang also said to Gu Shangqing: "Look, your wife remembers to bring two jars of wine for my wife when she comes. Why don't you know to bring two jars for me?"

"My wife gave Mrs. Shang fruit wine, which is sweet and sour, but you don't like to drink it." Gu Shangqing said, "As for what you like to drink, you have a lot here, what should I bring it for?"

"You kid, you are so attentive to your wife, why are you so indifferent to me?" General Shang said, blowing his beard.

"Look what you said." Gu Shangqing said, "That's my wife."

General Shang: "..."

His wife cannot hear this, otherwise she will say it to him again.

Here, Mrs. Shang asked about Li Mumu's restaurant, "I heard that the Gu family's snack business is very good, and they even sent someone to the store to buy me some food that I could bring back."

"It's a pity that I can't bring much food back, especially pots. I can't buy them back and eat them. I have to go to the store." Mrs. Shang said, "I heard that the pots in your store are delicious."
