The mall's basement level is equipped with a large supermarket. Jinxi took Zanzan for a walk around, and in the end they only bought some snacks and a bag of acacia flowers.

Spring has arrived, and it's time to cook the locust flowers.

Jinxi was actually stunned for a few seconds when she saw the locust flowers. When her parents were still alive, they would buy locust flowers every spring to make dumplings or steamed buns for her.

Later they left, and Jinxi was too lazy to bother with it, but things are different now.

She has plenty of time and a "temporary" new family, so when spring arrives, the locust blossoms can also enter her belly.

Zhou Yanqian was very curious about this thing called locust flower the whole way. He thought that only things like osmanthus and chrysanthemum were edible, and he had never eaten locust flower before.

Moreover, he had just overheard Jinxi making a phone call to Butler Zhao, asking the kitchen to prepare dough, saying that she would take him to make dumplings in the afternoon.

To be honest, he had only ever eaten dumplings and had never made them himself, so he instantly felt excited about the afternoon's activities.

With his intelligence and talent, the dumplings he makes will definitely be delicious.

Jinxi said that he has the potential to be a chef, and Zhou Yanqian actually thinks so too.

When they got home, the nanny had already prepared the dough. Jinxi originally wanted to rest for a while before starting, but she found that Zanzan was very enthusiastic about making dumplings, so she decided not to rest and finish making them as soon as possible so she could pick up Dahuang and Xiaohuang from school.

She led Zan Zan into the kitchen, told the nanny and housekeeper Zhao to go and rest, and then put an apron on Zan Zan. Zan Zan stood on the chair in a very professional manner, listening to Jin Xi's instructions, and added seasonings to the minced meat.

"You're amazing! You're practically a little chef!" Jinxi praised. "Come and stir things up, stir things up in one spot."

She demonstrated, and Zhou Yanqian nodded, holding the bowl in one hand and chopsticks in the other, slowly stirring in one spot.

Jinxi recorded a short video of him on her phone and sent it to Zhou Linxu: [Zan brand dumplings, how many are you eating tonight?]

[Zhou Lin's Preface: Complete.]

all?

Jinxi gently rubbed Zanzan's face.

Zhou Yanqian was focused on something at the moment, and was completely bewildered by the playful slapping on his face. He looked up and saw Jin Xi holding her phone and laughing. He said, "What are you doing!"

Jinxi said, "Your dad said he's going to eat all the dumplings you made. I was so shocked! So why don't you make a hundred dumplings for your dad?"

One hundred?

Was he Zhou Linxu's son or Zhou Linxu's dumpling maker?

Zhou Yanqian sped up the situation even more: "Order him takeout!"

Who wants to make dumplings for him?

Jinxi forwarded Zanzan's reply to Zhou Linxu verbatim: 【Your son told you to order takeout.】

[Preface to Zhou Lin: Nizi. 】

Jinxi couldn't help but laugh again; Zhou Linxu was actually quite funny.

She took a few more photos of her unfilial son, Zan Zan, at work, and finally nodded in satisfaction before rolling up her sleeves and getting to work herself.

Although the kitchen was large, it was still not very convenient. After preparing the locust flower and minced meat filling, Jinxi moved to the dining table.

She was rolling out the dough with a rolling pin, while Zan Zan was still stirring his meat filling.

After the locust flowers were added to the minced meat, the whole filling had a delicate fragrance. He sniffed it, wondering what it smelled like. He had never tasted it before.

Jinxi said, "Raise your head a little higher, or your drool will drip in."

Sometimes Zhou Yanqian really felt that Jinxi's words were not pleasant to hear at all; at least his saliva wouldn't drip into the meat filling!

Jin Xi raised an eyebrow: "Still not convinced?"

Instead of the little glutton's grumbling reply, Jinxi rolled out some dumpling wrappers: "Come on, I'll teach you how to make dumplings. If there's any meat filling left later, I'll make you two pancakes."

Zhou Yanqian said, "Alright then, I'll try one and see what it tastes like."

Jin Xi thought to herself, "Now he's starting to act all reserved."

Zhou Yanqian imitated Jin Xi, holding a rolled-out dumpling wrapper in one hand and a spoon in the other, scooping a spoonful of meat filling into the middle of the wrapper, and then pinching it closed.

Jinxi exclaimed, "My goodness! You learned it after just one lesson? You're a genius!"

She looked at it carefully again and again, thinking that Zan Zan was just playing around with it, but she didn't expect that there was actually something there. Although it was ugly, it didn't give anything away.

Zhou Yanqian pouted. "What's so difficult about this?! It's a piece of cake!"

Jinxi specially brought an extra plate and placed Zanzan's dumplings on it: "Okay, your task is to fill this plate, can you do it?"

"Of course!" Zhou Yanqian picked up another dumpling wrapper, his face serious. "Super easy!"

Jinxi gave two thumbs up: "Looks like we can open a dumpling shop for you in the future. Once we introduce you, you'll be the 'King of Barbecue' and the dumpling shop owner, Boss Zan Zan. Sounds pretty cool!"

Zhou Yanqian simply said, "Oh, it's alright."

His tone, however, betrayed his pride and joy.

Jinxi continued, "I almost forgot, you're also a scooter expert and a rising star in the martial arts world. Wow, you're not even four years old and you already have so many titles. I'm going to study this 'Thumbs Up' full-time."

Zhou Yanqian snorted: "Who wants you to study it?"

Jin Xi said, "I'm going to investigate. You can't resist, so surrender, little darling!"

This weird tune sounds scary!

Zhou Yanqian silently turned away, but didn't stop making dumplings. He would talk to Jinxi slowly after he finished making the dumplings!

The two of them, one big and one small, dawdled for almost an hour making dumplings. In the end, "as expected," there was still some meat filling and dough left. Under Zan Zan's "not very obvious" gaze, Jin Xi also fried two locust flower meat patties for him.

I even squeezed some ketchup on the side for him to dip in.

When she came back after putting the dumplings in the refrigerator, Zan Zan had already switched to holding the pancakes with both hands, her face round and chubby, and her eyes were also round. There was even some ketchup on her cheeks from eating.

It looks a little funny.

Moreover, when he saw Jinxi come out, he chewed slower and became more reserved.

Jinxi pretended not to notice his reserve and simply said, "Eat slowly, it's hot. I'm going upstairs to get something."

Actually, it wasn't hot anymore. When Jinxi took it out for him, she deliberately let it sit for a while, and now the temperature was just right.

Zhou Yanqian sighed again, realizing that he hadn't really eaten anything good in his past life, and his tastes were very limited. This locust flower meat pie was so delicious.

He took another bite, the unique fragrance of locust blossoms filling his mouth. Dipping it in a little tomato sauce, which kids love, made it both refreshing and delicious.

Zhou Yanqian enjoyed the delicious meat pie by himself without noticing that Jin Xi, who was supposed to be going upstairs, secretly took a few photos of him while walking up the stairs.

[Jinxi: Your son has eaten so much he's forgotten everything. I stared at him for two or three minutes, but he didn't even acknowledge me.]

Zhou Linxu is currently in his office, having just finished an impromptu meeting, and is now waiting for the next meeting to begin.

The phone on my desk rang a few times; it was a message from Jinxi.

He walked over, picked it up, and looked at it; it was exactly as he had guessed.

Jinxi sent me several photos of Zanzan eating pancakes. In the photos, the little guy is sitting on the carpet, with the latest episode of the cartoon playing on TV, holding a fragrant pancake in both hands and munching on it.

Zhou Linxu could picture him at home, struggling to make dumplings, while gazing longingly at Jinxi pancakes, all the while trying to maintain his image as a delicate little boy.

But after finally tasting the delicious pancake, their eyes narrowed with joy.

This kid is living a very leisurely life.
