"Oh my, Mingyue, you figured that out! You're so clever."

"..."

Chen Tangtang listened for a while outside the kitchen, then blinked her big, dark eyes and walked into the kitchen with her hands behind her back, looking like a leader.

"Cough cough."

"Tangtang?" Ning Moxin turned her head and was surprised to see the 'kitchen killer'.

"Look! A UFO!" Chen Tangtang used a trick that even elementary school students wouldn't believe these days, trying to divert the attention of the two older girls.

Yun Mingyue, who also turned her head, looked at Chen Tangtang speechlessly, "You're not trying to distract us and then secretly tamper with the zongzi, are you?"

"No way." Chen Tangtang shook her head rapidly.

"What are you doing in the kitchen, Tangtang? Do you want to learn how to wrap zongzi with us?"

Ning Moxin picked up two bamboo leaves from the side, stacked them together, folded them into a funnel shape, and then gestured for Chen Tangtang to hold them.

Wrapping zongzi is easy; even a kitchen novice can make edible zongzi with someone guiding them step by step.

"First add half the rice, then add a jujube. Of course, you can also add pork belly, egg yolk, shrimp, char siu, etc., according to your taste. Anything 'edible' will do."

Since Chen Tangtang is from Hong Kong, Ning Moxin didn't know whether she preferred sweet or savory rice dumplings, so she added a few extra words, emphasizing at the end that it should be edible.

Upon hearing Ning Moxin's comment that it was edible, Chen Tangtang's expression subtly changed. She had already added rice to the bamboo leaves and was about to reveal the one-yuan coin she had hidden on her person.

"Okay, I know."

She answered guiltily, her eyes darting left and right as she pondered how to sneak a coin into the zongzi.

Tap~~ Tap~~

"Sister Hua, Sister Mo, are the zongzi wrapped up?" Zhou You, who had set up the barbecue grill and chairs and tables outside, came to the kitchen.

Ning Moxin and Yun Mingyue turned around at the same time when they heard Zhou You's voice. Women in love are always very honest with their bodies. They think about the person they like and wish they could stick to him all the time.

"Do you need my help?" Zhou You asked again.

"That's about it," Ning Moxin replied, glancing at the mountain of rice dumplings. "Tangtang has the last one."

"is it?"

Zhou You came up behind Chen Tangtang and saw that her hands were covered with rice and only the rice dumplings were about to be sealed. He took the initiative to reach out and cover Chen Tangtang's small hands.

"Let me help you wrap the zongzi, Sister Bing."

"Mmm." Chen Tangtang felt her whole body go limp as he held her warm, large hands. How could she possibly refuse such a wonderful thing?

With Zhou You's help, Chen Tangtang wrapped up their family's last zongzi, making it plump, firm, and adorable.

This rice dumpling is for my little boy.

Chen Tangtang thought about it very seriously; she had originally planned to eat the lucky rice dumpling herself.

But it seems the luck was ultimately left to the young heartthrob.

414. A pure mother-son relationship

Once the rice dumplings were wrapped, Ning Moxin folded them into bunches and put them into the pot. They would be ready to eat after cooking for two hours.

"Hey, take your time, I can't even see the rice dumpling I wrapped."

"It's all the same, and I've already let it go, so there's no use in you worrying, Tangtang."

Seeing Chen Tangtang's anxious look, Ning Moxin was amused.

"Two hours. By the time we finish cooking, it will be almost dark, and then we can start the barbecue party. So, what should we do to pass the time during these two hours?" Ning Moxin asked for everyone's opinions.

*Smack! Smack smack!*

A crisp sound came from outside.

A few people put down the large, steaming pot and came out of the kitchen. They saw Xiao Chuchu, dressed in casual clothes, banging on the glass sliding door that connected to the small courtyard.

"Sister Lian, what brings you here?" Zhou You asked as he opened the door.

“I saw you setting up a barbecue grill in the yard from upstairs and wanted to come over and join in the fun.”

Xiao Chuchu plopped down on the floor, took off her strappy sandals and left them outside, then walked into the house with her bare, soft, delicate feet, big enough to fit two in one hand.

"Are you wrapping rice dumplings? I can help."

"No need, we've already taken care of it," Zhou You replied. "We're currently thinking of something to do to pass the time."

"If you want to kill time, why don't you find a game to play?" Xiao Chuchu said while observing the furnishings of Zhou You's house.

"Then... Sister Lian, and the other sisters, is there anything you'd like to play?" Zhou You asked casually.

After looking around the living room, Xiao Chuchu shook her head. "If you want my suggestion, I can only suggest that we sit on the sofa and play Candy Crush."

"Ding~~~ Dong! Bang!" She even imitated the elimination sound effects of the game Candy Crush with great interest.

Zhou You blinked. Sometimes he really couldn't tell that Xiao Chuchu and his mother Xiao Yan were of the same generation, that Xiao Chuchu was his elder.

"Then I'll decide. Hmm... how about we play a game of 'Who's the Spy'?"

The rules for "Who is the Spy" are simple and almost effortless; the only challenge is calm analysis and acting skills.

Zhou You led the older women to sit on the sofa in the living room. "Search for the 'Who's the Spy' mini-program on WeChat. Just click on the first one. I've booked a room. Come in, all of you."

He held up his phone and showed everyone how to get into the room, and the four women entered the room he had booked one by one.

The first round began. Since it was played on a mobile phone, there was no need for a referee. The program randomly selected a word and sent it to everyone: a blank word, a spy word, and three correct words.

Zhou You was number one. He looked around at the other people and said mysteriously, "Girls wear them."

Ning Moxin glanced at her phone, a genuine blush creeping across her face. "I usually don't wear it when I sleep at night."

Yun Mingyue appeared very calm. "There are many colors and many kinds."

When it was Chen Tangtang's turn, she glanced at Ning Moxin, then at Yun Mingyue, and felt that the words in her hand were different from theirs. "They're usually worn on the face?"

Hearing her words, the others didn't react much, but Xiao Chuchu chuckled and pointed at Chen Tangtang, saying, "No need to think about it, the undercover agent is definitely Tangtang! This thing can be worn on the face?"

Chen Tangtang retorted, "You haven't even said anything yet!"

Xiao Chuchu seemed confident. Although she had a blank word in her hand, she believed she had successfully figured out what it was.

So he shouted, "With lace trim!"

"Pfft~~ Hahaha~~" *N

Everyone laughed, except for Chen Tangtang, who was still wondering if there was a 'mask' with lace trim and was a little confused.

In the first round of voting, Xiao Chuchu was unsurprisingly voted out.

She remained completely bewildered until the game ended, when she learned that the correct word was 'mask' and the undercover agent's word was 'mask'. She was extremely frustrated, as she had thought the group was talking about 'bra'.

Today's words are really suggestive, like "sanitary napkin" and "toilet paper." Everyone else says "toilet paper," but Chen Tangtang loudly says it can be used to wipe your mouth, which immediately causes another burst of laughter.

They played like this for two hours, everyone was having a great time, the room was filled with a cheerful atmosphere, and the rice dumplings in the pot were all cooked.

Everyone rushed into the kitchen to get the zongzi (sticky rice dumplings). One by one, the dark green zongzi were taken out of the water, and the air was filled with the faint fragrance of zongzi leaves.

Buzz~~ Buzz~~

Xiao Chuchu was standing outside the kitchen, wondering if she should move a stool and stand on it to help, when her phone suddenly vibrated slightly.

Her god-sister, Xiao Yan, sent her a few messages.

Xiao Yan: [Image]

Xiao Yan: [These are the rice dumplings I just cooked.]

Xiao Yan: [Chu Chu, do you want to come to my house for zongzi today?]

Xiao Chuchu clicked on the picture and looked at it. Xiao Yan was happily leaning against Zhou's father, and there was a basin of zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) on the dining table.

She thought for a moment, then grabbed her phone and ran into the kitchen.

"Everyone, look over here!"

Zhou You lowered his head with curiosity, while Ning Moxin turned halfway to the side as she was scooping up rice dumplings with a net.

Yun Mingyue tidied up the zongzi and put them in a bowl, then stopped walking out, holding the bowl.

Chen Tangtang, who secretly took two zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) and frowned as she analyzed which one was the lucky one, then let her little male god eat them, held the two zongzi in her hands and tilted her head.

Xiao Chuchu stood in front of the four people, turned on the camera function, adjusted the angle, and made sure that she and the people behind her were in the viewfinder.

Click~~ Click~~

An unusually harmonious photo, resembling a family portrait, appeared in Xiao Chuchu's phone album.

Xiao Chuchu: [Image]

Xiao Chuchu: [Sister, I'm at your son's house right now, preparing to eat zongzi.]

Xiao Yan: [These photos are really good! It feels like Chu Chu, you're almost blending in with Ming Yue and the others.]

Xiao Yan: [I almost thought you were my son's girlfriend too.]

When Xiao Chuchu saw the message, her small body trembled violently, and she almost lost her balance.

Xiao Chuchu: [Sister! Don't talk nonsense, I'm Zhou You's godmother!]

Xiao Yan: [You two aren't related by blood, and I only almost thought so, not really. Chu Chu, why are you panicking?]

Xiao Yan: [Chu Chu, are you feeling guilty? Suspicious.jpg]

While preparing to eat zongzi at home, Xiao Yan chatted with Xiao Chuchu. She touched her fair chin and didn't reply to the message immediately.

Zhou's father, who had been watching from the sidelines, asked hesitantly, "Do you really suspect Chuchu and our son..."

"I was just joking with Chu Chu," Xiao Yan said, shaking her head.

How could my god-sister and my son get together?

How could that be? Absolutely impossible!

Buzz~~ Buzz~~

Xiao Chuchu sent another message.

Xiao Chuchu: [Sister, don't talk nonsense, I'm just excited! Not guilty!]
