After the couplets were affixed and the dumplings were boiled, the custom at the Bai Family is to have the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening, and dumplings at noon.
The family gathered around the table noisily, each with a bowl of dumplings.
Zhuo Yuqing took a bite and discovered it was her favorite filling, napa cabbage.
Bai's mother cheerfully asked from the side, "Yuqing, do they taste good?"
"Delicious, mom's cooking is really good." Zhuo Yuqing sincerely complimented, and it seems like Bai Chengxi's culinary skills were probably inherited from his mother.
"Chengxi said you don't like coriander and green onions, so I didn't add any. Usually, we wrap dumplings with celery filling because Chengxi likes it, but this year he insisted on napa cabbage filling. I thought he had changed his preference, but it turns out Yuqing loves napa cabbage." Bai's mother was always beaming with a smile: "Yuqing, look at that, for your sake, Chengxi has even changed his taste."
