He started wrapping the dumplings seriously, and to be honest, he did quite a decent job.
The wrapped dumplings didn’t split open, but as for the appearance, they weren’t quite pleasing to the eye, lopsided and quite ugly!
Though Nangong Jin is quite good at cooking, he seldom makes dumplings, so being able to wrap them at all is quite an achievent!
"These dumplings look terrible, will we be able to eat them later?" Nangong Ran couldn’t help but pick up a dumpling and exclaim, "These are god-like dumplings, why do they look more like buns to ?"
Nangong, the chef, was suddenly dissatisfied and glared, "Co on, it’s already good they didn’t fall apart, what more do you want? I call this abstract style!"
Nangong Ran covered his face, "This is way too abstract!"
Nangong Jin: "..."
"Learn or don’t, whatever." Nangong Jin rolled his eyes at Nangong Ran and said disdainfully.
Nangong Ran suddenly looked at Di Mingchen and couldn’t help asking, "Second brother, do you know how to wrap dumplings?"
Di Mingchen was taken aback, then replied sowhat sheepishly, "No, I don’t."
To be honest, although he knows how to cook, he basically doesn’t, except for cooking for Nangong Ran.
And although he likes eating dumplings, he’s never attempted to wrap them himself, because An Xin always did it for him, so he was a bit embarrassed.
Nangong Ran blinked, oh my, he actually doesn’t know!
So that ans he only eats the dumplings that little white lotus An Xin makes?
Damn.
"Shaful." Nangong Ran pouted discontentedly, then picked up a piece of dumpling skin, filled it with stuffing and said, "How hard can it be? Watch !"
Saying this, she started wrapping the dumplings following Nangong Jin’s thod, but the result was a hundred tis uglier than Nangong Jin’s.
Nangong Ran couldn’t help but criticize furiously, "Xiaoran, are you sure these are dumplings? Why do they look more and more like poop to ?"
Nangong Ran blushed with embarrassnt, this was awkward!
"None of you are doing it right." Gu Qibao hurriedly took out her phone and said smugly, "I had the chef in the kitchen make a video today, you’ll see how to wrap them once you watch it!"
She then opened her phone, and sure enough, there was a video where the chef was explaining while wrapping, describing everything in great detail with various skillful techniques, it was like watching a performance.
The dumplings that ca out of the chef’s hands were as beautiful as exquisite works of art.
Each one full and round, like golden ingots from a mold.
"6666." Nangong Ran clapped, "I’m learning from this!"
Gu Qibao cast the video onto Di Mingchen’s TV, and the group sat on the sofa earnestly following along.
There was a plate in front of each person, holding their self-wrapped dumplings.
Despite the detailed tutorial in the video, they were still mostly clueless.
They looked from the dumplings to the video, looking very serious, but unsurprisingly, the dumplings they wrapped were a disaster, looking like badly behaved rebellious teenagers.
After finishing, Nangong Ran glared at the dumplings with a deep sense of frustration, saying gloomily, "Can these things really go into our mouths?"
The appearance was so bad that amongst the eight people watching the video and wrapping, they couldn’t pick out a single good-looking one, it was pure chaos.
Di Mingchen was just about to comfort Nangong Ran when suddenly a guard ran to the door, "Reporting to the commander, Miss Nini is at the entrance, asking to see you?"
"Miss An Xin is also outside the courtyard." The guard added cautiously, then asked, "Shall we let them in?"
Upon hearing this, Di Mingchen’s brow furrowed imdiately.
