Chapter 1524: Chapter 589: Chewing Big Leiba, Thinking of Natasha! Making the Weapon-Grade Leiba!

"Then I’ll just wait!"

Shen Jiayue wasn’t in a hurry to know what Lin Xu’s surprise was. After all, as long as it’s food, it’ll end up in her belly. Knowing too early would spoil the surprise.

Chen Yan, eating a dumpling nearby, curiously asked:

"Yueyue, aren’t you even a bit curious? If someone were to tell me half a story, I’d chase them down to find out the rest, otherwise I’d lose sleep over it."

Shen Jiayue smiled:

"A surprise, the longer you wait, the stronger the feeling of surprise. I don’t have any obsessive-compulsive disorder or a strong sense of curiosity."

She’s always had a child’s mindset; as long as Lin Xu is around, she’s not much concerned with other things.

Chen Yan clicked her tongue:

"Simple joys for a not-so-smart kid."

"Well, at least I’m still a child, unlike some people who’re nearing forty... Not talking about you, Yan Bao. You’ll always be young and beautiful in my heart."

Chen Yan took a deep breath.

Alright, I’ll just focus on eating dumplings.

The fresh chives mixed with Chai Chicken Egg and shrimp were incredibly delicious, and the chives were cooked just right, a perfect green, with a fresh, unique chive flavor.

Such delicious dumplings, truly a different taste.

While eating, Cousin Wenshan arrived, carrying an empty lunchbox. After greeting Old Lady Shen upstairs, he greeted everyone before saying:

"Wenqing heard you all were eating chive and egg dumplings and insisted on driving over. I had to talk her out of it over the phone, promising to bring her some after eating, then she finally relented."

His sister turned into a foodie after having a baby, leaving Shi Wenshan quite helpless.

Han Shuzhen said:

"We have plenty of dumplings, take some home after you finish... Lin Xu, these dumplings can also be fried afterward, right?"

"Yes, they’re even tastier fried."

"Then take more for Jiayao to try."

"Alright, Auntie."

Old Lady Shen said:

"Spring is windy, and the child is too young to go out much. It’ll be better by summer, then Wenqing can bring the little baby to the shop, and Lin Xu can make whatever she wants to eat."

Elders love children, especially rosy-cheeked little girls, and everyone who sees them wants a hold or a hug.

Shi Wenshan sat down to start eating dumplings. Shen Guofu was initially thinking of offering him some liquor, but considering he’d still have to deliver dumplings to Wenqing later, he refrained and scheduled drinks for next time.

"Wow, these dumplings are delicious, no wonder Wenqing is so keen."

Shi Wenshan praised and, despite not being too hungry initially, found himself capable of eating two plates, feeling it might not be enough.

Lin Xu said:

"Wenshan, eat more, we have plenty of dumplings, you can’t finish them all."

Chen Yuejin sipped a bit of liquor from his cup, took a mouthful of wood ear slices, and ate a dumpling, somewhat understanding why his daughter came to the shop three times a day.

With so many tasty dishes, amidst laughter and conversation, it was an enjoyment money couldn’t necessarily buy.

Sadly, Chen Family’s company is too far away, otherwise he’d treat this place as his canteen.

Lin Xu finished a bowl of dumplings, but instead of continuing, steamed a piece of duck breast meat and brought it downstairs for Dundun.

No snake today, only tomorrow will Dundun get to try some.

"Try it, see if you like it, while we’re having dumplings upstairs, you can’t really eat them... Wait, actually you might be able to try."

Generally, Dundun can’t eat dumplings, but if the dumpling skins are made of meat, and the filling is entirely meat, such boiled dumplings should be pretty good.

Remembering a Fujian snack called meat dumplings, made by wrapping meat with meat, Lin Xu thought.

With that in mind, Lin Xu patted Dundun’s head:

"I’ll make you something tasty later, let you enjoy the flavor of meat dumplings."

While the adults were eating dumplings, naturally, the kids should taste them too.

Upon hearing this, Dundun immediately rubbed its big head against Lin Xu.

More delicious food is coming!

Watching the little one gobble down duck breast, Lin Xu was about to head upstairs to continue eating dumplings when Ren Jie arrived.

"Little Yan told me yesterday we’re having dumplings today, advised me not to be late... Have you started?"

"We’ve already had one round."

Ren Jie came up and patted Dundun’s head:

"Hey little darling, had a good day today?"

Dundun rubbed against its big uncle’s hand and continued eating meat.

Only then did Ren Jie head upstairs, eager to try the dumplings everyone was buzzing about.

When Dundun finished eating, Lin Xu took the empty plate upstairs and saw Ren Jie already halfway through a plate of dumplings, with Chen Yuejin chatting away with his son-in-law.

Upon seeing Lin Xu, Ren Jie said:

"Lin Xu, your rye bread is quite good. When you have time, could you teach the cooks at our canteen? Rye bread is durable and preserves well; it could really help on nights when our police force has long tasks."

During such shifts, the police could make noodles or prepare poached eggs.

But during missions, especially stakeouts, with nothing to hold onto, they have to endure it.

If there were a few rye breads in the car, it would at least offer something substantial.

Plus, this thing stores well, lasting three to five days in a car, making it suitable for the police force.

Lin Xu listened and replied with a smile:

"That’s quite easy, I can teach them when I get the chance, probably able to grasp it after a single demo."

While available on the market, and many can make it, personally guiding the canteen’s chef on how to make it would be more direct.
