Chapter 235 Wild Vegetable Dumplings

"These corn dumplings must be delicious; I can already smell the aroma."

Even when the food was almost ready, he would still try to reach for it.

His wife slapped his hand away, saying, "Don't rush, it'll be quick. Let's wait for the kids to come back before we eat. Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Ouch, okay, I'll wait." Xiao Wang cried out, clutching his hand, and walked away helplessly.

Although his wife said that, she herself also felt that the wild vegetable dumplings were quite delicious.

"Hmm, this smells really tempting. No, no, I'll just heat it up and eat it tomorrow."

Once his wife made the decision, she decisively went to cook other dishes, allowing him to get away from her for a while.

"Honey, I'm going to pick up the kids."

Xiao Wang waited and waited, but he felt that waiting any longer was not going to work. Instead, he was getting cravings more and more, so he decided to just go out and pick up the children.

"Alright, you don't have anything to do right now anyway, so go pick up the kids."

His wife had already realized that Xiao Wang couldn't sit still any longer, so she asked him to go and pick up the children.

Xiao Wang drove directly to the entrance of the junior high school, and as soon as the two children came out, he called them to get in the car.

The two children were surprised when they sat down. The older son asked first, "Dad, why did you have time to pick us up today?"

Since they started junior high school, they usually go home by themselves after school. If their families need to pick them up, it's only after evening self-study. Since they get out of school early on Fridays, they don't need to be picked up at all.

Xiao Wang smiled and started the car, "Hehe, I'll take you guys to eat something delicious."

The two children immediately understood that their dad had gone off to prepare something delicious.

The eldest son was speechless. "Dad, you didn't go and bring back wild game again, did you? You should cook less for yourself. I can't appreciate it."

The youngest son also disagreed, saying, "Me too. I don't think wild game tastes good at all. Wild vegetables are bitter and astringent, and wild animals have a fishy smell."

"Oh, you two silly boys, what do you know? Let me tell you, the wild vegetables I bought this time are really delicious. We can make wild vegetable dumplings as soon as we get home."

Xiao Wang was unhappy, as he felt the wild vegetables he had picked were exceptionally good.

The two children exchanged a glance, knowing they couldn't disobey their father now, so they kept quiet. After all, their mother would usually prepare other food for them.

The three drove home quickly, and after they put their things down, Xiao Wang's wife started serving the dishes.

"You're all back! Go wash your hands and eat. Tonight's main dishes are wild vegetable dumplings and steamed buns, plus a few stir-fried side dishes."

After she finished making the wild vegetable dumplings, she thought about it carefully. No matter what, she probably wouldn't be able to eat much if she cooked again. So she decided to ferment the steamed buns and make some steamed buns instead.

With that in mind, she quickly stir-fried two more dishes, thinking that everyone could just eat them with steamed buns later.

The eldest son sat down with a steamed bun in his hand and said, "Great, Mom, I'll eat the steamed bun then."

"I'll have a steamed bun too." The younger son quickly grabbed one, afraid that his father would let him have the wild vegetable dumplings instead.

They had eaten it before, but the taste, well, it was really not as good as other noodles.

Seeing the children's reaction, the wife knew they probably didn't like the food, but since it had already been made, she couldn't let it go to waste, so she and Xiao Wang each took one to try.

She didn't care, but Xiao Wang was really looking forward to it.

Xiao Wang took a bite with anticipation, and then couldn't help but praise it.

"Wow, this is so delicious! It tastes just like I imagined."

His wife exclaimed in surprise, "This time the taste is really good!"

The wild vegetable dumplings have a light and refreshing flavor. The alfalfa inside, mixed with meat filling and seasonings, has a savory aroma, but it retains the original grassy smell of alfalfa, which is not unpleasant. This is complemented by the dough made from cornmeal.

The two are intertwined, and although it doesn't taste as soft as a steamed bun, it has its own unique flavor.

The two children were surprised to see their parents like this. How could eating a wild vegetable dumpling cause such a reaction? They had never been like this before.

The two of them took one out of curiosity, and then they couldn't stop themselves from doing it.

The wild vegetable dumplings on the table quickly dwindled.

In the end, it was gone!
