Chapter 625 Dumpling Making Competition
The annual dumpling making competition in Xiangyang Village is about to be held.
The village chief personally led people to door and encouraged everyone to sign up enthusiastically.
Although the competition was later than in previous years, there were more people participating.
In previous years, the competition was on the tenth day of the first lunar month. Many people in the village went back to their parents' homes and went out to visit relatives, but they didn't have time to come back to participate.
This year, in order to wait for the Wu family, the village chief deliberately moved the competition until after the first lunar month. The unintentional move actually made the number of applicants break the record for years.
The village chief was very happy about this and directly praised the Wu family's blessing.
After all, with more people participating, the impact will be wider.
Although it’s just making dumplings, it’s the first prize for the whole year, and every family in the village is very fond of it.
All the Wu family signed up to participate in the dumpling making competition, especially Wu Jiali, who was eager to try it out.
She and Ding Hongzhen are responsible for the dumplings they eat at home every year, and they are made quickly and well.
Compared with speed, even the adults in the village are not her opponent.
Compared to quality, she made dumplings with more filling and tightness. She is determined to win a ranking.
In previous years, she participated in the children's competitions and won the first place every time, so she received many rice and flour for her family. Old Mrs. Wu always praised it.
This year she is unwilling to accept this and wants to get something better.
She had planned to participate in the adult group competition this time no matter what.
If you are lucky and can get the first place, it will be better than an adult!
Even if you don’t get the ranking, you can still gain a good reputation for being brave and resourceful.
Why not do it?
So at the beginning, Wu Jiali was very active and pulled her mother Ding Hongzhen to the village chief several times before she agreed to participate in the adult group competition.
"Grandma, you must come to my game!" Wu Jiali went to Old Mrs. Wu to act cute before the game.
"Okay! You must go. Didn't Xiao Jinbao and the other children also sign up? Grandma will definitely go see it." Old Mrs. Wu replied kindly.
On the day of the competition, the village chief not only invited several village chiefs from neighboring villages to be referees, but also spent money to find a lion and dragon dance team to add to the atmosphere.
Such a lively opening not only won praise from the villagers, but also made Xiangyang Village lit up in front of the other village chiefs.
The competition is carried out in an orderly manner, with simple and clear rules, and it depends on who makes the most dumplings in unit time and wins by quantity.
The first thing was to play was the children's group competition. With the sound of cheering, the children were all very excited.
Xiao Jinbao also pinched the dumpling skin in a pretty good manner, but his movements seemed to be much slower than others.
Look at the Pang Ya, Jia Wen and the others around me. They have already made ten dumplings, but there are only five in front of Xiao Jinbao.
"Come on, Xiao Jinbao!"
"Come on, my daughter!"
Yang Chunlan and Wu Laosi kept cheering their daughters up in the crowd.
Hearing the cheers from his parents outside the venue, Xiao Jinbao wiped his face with his floured hands, and raised the dumplings in his hand with a smile and shouted at Yang Chunlan: "Mom, look!"
Yang Chunlan was a little dumbfounded. Why did the dumplings in Xiao Jinbao look different from others'...
This shape doesn't look like a normal dumpling at all!
Other people's dumplings are full and round, with both ends raised like gold ingots, while Xiao Jinbao's dumplings are soft. Not only are they not raised at both ends, but one end is also dragging a large piece of dough tail, which is very ugly.
Seeing Xiao Jinbao happily lifting the dumplings, everyone was talking.
"Look at this little Jinbao, he is usually very clever, why is he stupid to make dumplings?"
"Yes, if you don't say it's slow, it's too ugly."
"It seems that there is no chance to win the prize. After all, it's a child, so just be happy. Look at her, how cute she smiles!"
Yang Chunlan couldn't listen to these things. No matter what Xiao Jinbao did, it was the best choice in her opinion.
"Come on! Daughter, the dumplings you made are so great! Mom and Dad are proud of you!" Yang Chunlan shouted loudly at Xiao Jinbao.
Xiao Jinbao waved his hand to respond with a smile, then began to lower his head and carefully wrap the dumplings, muttering: "Hehe! I'll do magic for my mother in a while!"
As the winning general in the children's group of the dumpling making competition in previous years, Wu Jiali did not participate this time, which made many adults very happy.
"Wu Jiali won't participate in making dumplings this year, that's great!"
"Not! In this way, my fat girl will have a chance to win the championship! Otherwise, she will be the second son who has been in the ten thousand years."
Listening to everyone's discussion, Wu Jiali was very proud.
Humph! Look at you guys, I'm going to compete with you later. Let's see how you cry when you go!
She glanced at the children who participated in the children's competition, and looked at the dumplings they had made, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.
None of them looks better than the ones they pack, they are all incomparable and incomparable.
Especially that little Jinbao, what is it that is ugly?
She even began to fantasize about what the adults would say after the competition: "The dumplings made by Wu Jiali are dumplings, Xiao Jinbao, you have to learn more from your sister!"
