Rebirth: Mr. Fu will not cancel the engagement this time

On the way back to the house, Gu Jinhe looked at the little white rabbit doll in his hand for a long time, recalling his childhood days in the orphanage.

When she was three years old, Gu Jinhe was accidentally sent to an orphanage. She lived an ordinary life. Having a piece of brick and tile to shelter her from the wind and rain was already a great fortune for her at that time.

The conditions at this orphanage are not very good locally, the director is often worried, there is no one to support the orphanage, and the children there have a hard time.

One day when Gu Jinhe was six years old, the director suddenly gathered the children in the orphanage together happily and told them that a rich young man from the capital had donated money to their orphanage.

The situation in the orphanage was already very bad at that time. The children could only rely on porridge to maintain their food and clothing, and the director had to beg for it from people everywhere.

The director was very happy that day. That morning, a large truck loaded with snacks and toys was delivered to the door of the orphanage.

The dean brought the children out, and when they looked at the car full of things, the children laughed happily.

Gu Jinhe was assigned a rabbit doll, which was the color of snowflakes, had long ears, and eyes made of black crystal. It seemed as if the sky was full of stars and it was looking at her from its eyes.

After that day, life in the orphanage became noticeably better. The director bought winter clothes, books and pencils for everyone.

On the day of the winter solstice, everyone gathered together to make dumplings. Although the dumplings were crooked and torn, that day was the happiest day for Gu Jinhe since she came to the orphanage.

A year later, Gu Jinhe was adopted by a pair of university teachers. They attached great importance to her education and did not allow her to be distracted in the slightest.

The rabbit doll that had accompanied Gu Jinhe for a year was abandoned by her adoptive father, who said that she was obsessed with playing, had no ambition, only knew how to have fun, and was not worthy of being their daughter.

From then on, Gu Jinhe didn't dare to have his own preferences anymore, for fear of being abandoned again.

Day after day, year after year, as time went by, Gu Jinhe had almost forgotten what it felt like to own something he liked.

But Gu Jinhe has never forgotten the rabbit doll he received when he was six years old and the scene of everyone making dumplings together on the Winter Solstice.

Today, when Gu Jinhe received the gift of a rabbit doll again, she seemed to be back at the door of the dilapidated orphanage at that moment. She saw the big truck full of gifts, with children jumping around, and the scene of the soft rabbit doll held in her arms gradually overlapped with the present.

Shuhua saw Gu Jinhe staring at the rabbit, with a look of nostalgia and realization on his face.

Shuhua moved the corner of her mouth and was about to speak, but Shumo, who was sitting on the other side, noticed it and immediately glared at her, telling her not to disturb the eldest lady.

Shuhua closed her mouth silently. She was still a little uncomfortable after walking for a whole day. Her legs felt a little sore, but she didn't dare to act rashly, for fear of disturbing the eldest lady.

Xu Cheng, who was sitting in the passenger seat, glanced in the rearview mirror and looked at the rabbit doll. After thinking for a moment, he retracted his gaze and continued to look at the front of the car.

After a while, Gu Jinhe collected his thoughts, put down the rabbit doll in his hand, and suddenly said, "Let's eat dumplings tonight."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Xu Cheng was the first to react. He asked, "What kind of filling would you like to eat, young lady?"

Gu Jinhe lowered his eyes and said, "Shepherd's purse and eggs, right?"

Shuhua and Shumo looked at each other, and Shumo smiled and said, "It's the winter solstice in two days, so it would be nice to eat dumplings and drink a bowl of chicken soup to warm up the body."

Is the winter solstice coming so soon?

Gu Jinhe turned his eyes to the rapidly reversing traffic outside the car window and the bushes on the roadside, as if he was back to the day when he left the orphanage.

That day was also the Winter Solstice, but after that day she never had the chance to eat dumplings on the Winter Solstice again.

Because my adoptive parents found it troublesome to make dumplings, the meals at home were always simple and conventional.

After entering university, Gu Jinhe ate dumplings in the cafeteria, but the taste was different from what he remembered.

In fact, she has forgotten what it tasted like after so many years, but the dumplings she had on the winter solstice that day were the best dumplings she had ever eaten.

Shu Mo didn't know if she had said something wrong, but it was obvious that after she finished speaking, there was a sudden hint of worry between Gu Jinhe's brows.

After returning to Gu's house, Gu Jinhe took the rabbit doll back to her room. At this time, her expression had calmed down and others could not tell what she was thinking.

Shuhua bumped Shumo's shoulder and asked curiously, "What's wrong with you, Miss?"

Shu Mo frowned: "It's not our business to ask about the eldest lady's affairs."

Shuhua pouted. She knew that she was just a little worried about the eldest lady.

Shumo looked towards the room with the closed door and said to Shuhua, "Let's go."

Shuhua asked, "Where are you going?"

"Make dumplings."

what?

Shuhua was pulled into the kitchen by Shumo and looked at the washed shepherd's purse and a basket of eggs on the table.

Shuhua was confused and asked, "I don't know how to make dumplings?"

She is only good at making tea and doesn't know all the kitchen utensils.

Shu Mo asked, "You know how to beat eggs, right?"

Beat eggs? This is easy. Shuhua took out a glass container from the shelf and started beating eggs.

Shu Mo glanced at her, and seeing that she was doing it well, she stopped paying attention. She grabbed a handful of shepherd's purse and put it on the chopping board, then took out a kitchen knife and started chopping it.

Half an hour later, the stuffing was ready, and someone brought in the rolled dumpling skins. The two of them stared at each other in the kitchen for a while. Shuhua looked at the dumpling skins and then at the stuffing, and finally said to Shumo, "Sister Shumo, can you make dumplings?"

Shu Mo: “...No.”

Shuhua was surprised and asked, "Sister Shumo, you don't know how to make dumplings? I saw you were so calm, I thought you knew how to make dumplings. What should I do now?"

Shu Mo took out his phone and said, "There are instructional videos online. Making dumplings is not difficult. You should be able to do it after watching it a few times."

Ten minutes later, Shuhua looked at the dumplings in her hand, which had two holes in them and the stuffing was exposed. She said with an embarrassed look on her face, "Sister Shumo, I probably wasn't born with the skill of being a kitchen hand. How can I feed the young lady with dumplings like this?"

As she spoke, she looked at the dumplings in Shu Mo's hand. Although they looked like dumplings, the bottom was so thin that the stuffing inside could be seen. The stuffing would probably come out as soon as the dumplings were put into the pot.

Shuhua looked at Shumo carefully and said, "How about we ask the uncle and aunt in the kitchen to help?"

When Shu Mo was looking at the dumplings in his hand and hesitating, a voice suddenly came from the kitchen door.

"What are you doing?"

Shuhua and Shumo were startled, and they turned around and lowered their heads slightly: "Miss."

Gu Jinhe walked in and saw that both of them had stains on their clothes. When she saw what was on the table, she was slightly surprised: "Are you making dumplings?"

Shuhua and Shumo looked at each other, and Shumo nodded and said, "This is the first time that the young lady has made a request to us, so we want to make it ourselves and give it to the young lady."

Looking at the crooked dumplings on the plate, I knew their plan was not going well.

Just when Shuhua and Shumo were feeling nervous, Gu Jinhe showed a genuine smile on his face.

She said, "I'll go with you."
