Ming Xue Mo's laughing point was severely pierced by them. She laughed so hard that she couldn't even straighten her back, so she just laid her head on her knees. There were actually meat splitting notes too. Please forgive her for being so young and having so little experience in the world, but first let her laugh for a while in a way that was less than strange.

While she was laughing so hard that she couldn't even speak, Ah Ran and Ah Lie were already holding bowls and spoons for each of them. They had already finished scooping up her portion. They had already drooled around the pot of meat for the greater part of the night. They could not afford to delay any longer than a second. They had to eat it immediately!

Seeing that she was smiling so intently with her head lowered, he felt too embarrassed to disturb her interest. Thus, he handed the bowl to Gu Zi.

He waited for her to finish laughing, but she didn't stop. He patted her on the back and said, "Alright, stop laughing. Eat while it's hot."

She lifted her head, but still used the back of her left hand to lightly cover her mouth. Looking at the bowl in his hand that was filled with the fragrance of food, she shook her head and repeated, "I don't eat dog meat."

"If you don't want to eat it, you can give it to someone else. In any case, this portion is yours, so you can decide."

Gu Zi's original intention was to keep Ming Xue Mo's bowl for himself, but in order to stop the others from talking, in addition to him having enough confidence, he said it was for others to eat, not for me.

Who knew that Ming Xue Mo would take the bowl, turning to A'Mo and said, "A'Mo, here you go."

Gu Zi asked, feeling as if he had suddenly been stabbed in the heart, and the pain made him want to spit out a mouthful of blood. He was the one who had called her, and the one who had invited her to have a hot pot was also him, he was the one who had gone to pick her up at night, but she had instead given the meat to A'Mo!

This was too much of a blow, and he couldn't conceal his anger. He had to oppose, "A'Mo is already married. Are you going to feed him properly?"

Looking at the way he blew his beard and glared at her, the laughing factor that he had suppressed with great difficulty rose up once again. Was he expressing his dissatisfaction over the five pieces of dog meat, or the ten pieces of turnips?

But what to do? She just wanted to give it to A'Mo. Didn't you just say that you would do as she sees fit?

Ming Xue Mo also had to adhere to her principles, "It's exactly because A'Mo is married that I want to give it to him." He handed the bowl to A'Mo.

Poor, flattered A'Mo didn't dare to accept. He was even complaining in his heart: Miss Ming, I've never offended you. Look at the young master's expression, "This meat is mine, this radish is mine too! All of it is mine, which one of you dare to move!" From the looks of it, if he dared to receive it, he would definitely chop off his hand.

The others all cast sympathetic gazes at A'Mo. At the same time, they all wore expressions of schadenfreude, waiting to see how he would escape this calamity.

Late at night at the end of December, the temperature had dropped to just a few degrees, but A'Mo was sweating profusely. He felt that this bowl of meat was like a gift from the previous emperor.

Ming Xue looked at his expression as if he was about to die, which couldn't even cover up his sunglasses. She wanted to laugh even more as she added, "Give it to Ah Xin."

Knowing that this was for the benefit of the newlyweds, A'Mo was finally able to peacefully accept the bowl of dog meat. He put the book back into his pocket, took it over with both hands, and said, "I thank Miss Ming on behalf of A'Xin."

"There's no need to go. Hurry up and go."

A'Mo carried the bowl of meat, which almost gave him his life, back to his room with A'Xin. However, A'Xin wasn't in there. He didn't think twice before heading back to the main house.

If Acin had not rested, she must have been with his wife.

Sure enough, A-Xin was in Teacher Tang's room. After A'Mo handed the meat to A'Xin, he used a simple and succinct way to express his complicated feelings. Teacher Tang beckoned A'Mo to come closer and softly said, "A'Mo, when we send Miss Ming back, you'll do this …"

After A'Mo went to find his new wife, Gu Zi's shattered heart started to heal, and his mood also gradually improved. Although Ming Xue Mo giving the meat to A'Xin wasn't the end result he wanted, A'Mo's advantage was natural, so he lost willingly.

After A'Mo left, there was nothing left for the crowd to see, so they turned their attention back to the huge metal pot.

"A'Mo took away the account book. What do we do now?"

Aran: "What can we do? Snatch it!"

Aran's suggestion was unanimously approved. The group of people all turned around to get a bowl, and crowded around the wok again. With spoons in hand, they scooped up the meat. Gu Zi, who had repeatedly announced that they were not allowed to eat too much, asked, "Have you guys seen dog meat before?" "Disgraceful!" His gaze was critical as he looked outside, but he did not say a single word to stop them.

In terms of merit and rewards, it became the responsibility of whoever had the first hand to eat it.

Ming Xue Mo looked at the group of "bandits" in surprise. Although she had experienced a lot of new things with Gu Zi during this period of time, the way she ate the hotpot still made her feel like she was opening her eyes wide.

Gouzi took her by the wrist and motioned with his eyes for her to stand up and walk away with him so that the meat would not be spilled by the barbarians. This girl was still wearing white. If she were to be smeared with oil, it would be hard for her to not be discovered by her aunt Yun.

They sat on the bench they had sat on when they were reading together. Mingxue leaned back in her chair and said, "It doesn't seem too cold this winter."

"Yes." "The weather forecast also said that this year will be the coldest year, which is purely a bluff."

Ming Xue Ma smiled lightly and thought proudly: "Could it be because I met you that the world changed color?"

She had never noticed before that the night sky of C City was actually so clear. In the distant horizon, there were a few sparse stars that flickered with a bright light, just like how he was beside her, illuminating the entire world.

Mama Fu was coming towards them with a tray. On it were a plate of dumplings, several stacks of dip sauce, two small bowls and two pairs of chopsticks. "Young Master, the dumplings are ready."

Gouzi took it and placed it between him and Ming Xue Mo. He picked up a pair of chopsticks and handed them to her.

Ming Xue Mo's expression showed some hesitation, and she didn't answer. Although she did not say, "I don't eat dumplings." However, the intention of rejection could be seen in his eyes.

Gu Zi let out a light sigh. "You don't even eat dog meat or dumplings? Did you come to our house to have a pure swim?"

Ming Xue knew that he was trying to tease her, but she didn't extend her hand. The psychological burden she had been carrying since she was young wasn't something she could let go of. She was willing to change for him, to be happy, to be no longer sad, to be depressed by the absence of family, to make every day a happy day for herself, but she needed more time.

However, Ming Xuemei's response to him could only be described with one word — she would rather die than submit.

Gu Zi asked, letting out a heavy sigh. This girl was still as stubborn as before. Since he wouldn't listen, he could only threaten her. He gave her an ultimatum, "Dog meat and dumplings, you must choose one. Do it."

Ming Xue Mo didn't even want to choose. She acted like a child who didn't want to eat properly as she looked at her parents who forced her to eat. She spoke with a slightly aggrieved tone, "Can I give up?"

"Sure." Gu Zi asked with a face full of anger, "If you don't listen, you have to bear the consequences." He said, "Then you will walk back to your own home later."

"…" Mingxue really was threatened by him. Let's not talk about whether she knew the way, even if she had Baidu map to help her, she wouldn't be able to reach her home before daybreak if she walked back from here. It had already been two months since she became Gu Si's tutor, but she still had a rough idea of how many kilometers around their home, there were no external cars.

It was the middle of the night in the middle of winter. Walking by herself on the empty street, even if the winter wasn't too cold, she still felt very sad …

"I choose dumplings." She puffed her cheeks and had to give in.

"That's right." Gu Zi picked up a dumpling, used a bowl to catch it, and asked, "Sesame or peanut butter?"

Ming Xue Mo was still a little unwilling, she asked mischievously: "Do you have the smell of salt and pepper?"

You think these are shrimp dumplings? Even if that was the case, it couldn't possibly be the salted prawns!

When Mingxue saw that he was about to get angry, she immediately pointed at the peanut butter.

Gu Zi asked as he dipped some sauce into her mouth. After she took a bite, he scolded her without reproach, "Watching you eat is even more worrisome than Gu Si."

Her heart was boiling hot like the steaming plate of dumplings. She knew very well that Gu Zi was asking for her good. It was also the first time she had discovered that the dumpling was actually so delicious … The fresh, fragrant filling and the skin of the tendons and tendons were not only delicious, but also moved when they were eaten.

She could eat dumplings now. Under his overbearing and warm threats, she had overcome a big obstacle in her heart. In the future, even if her parents were gone, as long as he was by her side, they would be reunited.

Gu Zi asked Ming Xue Mo. After she finished eating the entire dumpling, she took the bowl and chopsticks from him and said, "I'll do it myself."

Gu Zi nodded, picked up his bowl and chopsticks, and began to eat. Because he hadn't even eaten dinner for this dog meat hotpot, it was already almost one in the morning. Unfortunately, he did not even manage to eat a single radish and claimed that this young master of his was unworthy of his reputation!

Seeing him eat so well, Ming Xuemei felt more and more that dumplings were the most delicious thing in the world, and one mouthful was enough for her to enjoy it for the rest of her life …

A large plate of dumplings was eaten in their fancy eating style (each eating his own food, you give me and I give you, you feed me and I feed you), the victorious ones were wiped clean.

Ming Xue Mo felt that something was missing, so she said, "I want to drink water."

"What would you like to drink?" Gu Zi asked, pointing at the group of bodyguards who were eating and drinking at the same place. "There's Gadopao over there, is it okay?"

"Sure."

"Wait, I'll get it."

Gu Zi asked as he brought over two jars. He pulled the jars apart and passed them to Ming Xue Mo, who waited for him to open his jar as well. She raised her drink and said with a smile, "Happy Winter Solstice."

Gu Zi asked with a face full of smiles. He raised his glass to drink with her and said, "Happy Winter Solstice."
