Due to various reasons, the children in the orphanage didn’t have much contact with society. They were simple-minded. When they heard Mo Yu’s words, they instantly believed him. They all looked at the transparent glass bottle intently.

Fang Liu looked at the seeds in the bottle in surprise. She approached Mo Yu and asked quietly, “Where did you get this from?”

Mo Yu smiled, “The foundation brought a lot of new toys and school supplies for the children. These flower seeds were prepared by a foundation employee who studied psychology. He said that allowing the children to participate in some practical activities can help nurture their mental health. I took them out of the car.”

“All right, now form two lines and claim your very own fairy seeds,” Mo Yu said enthusiastically.

The children obediently formed two lines. Mo Yu distributed the seeds to everyone, and when the children received them, they carefully held them in their hands and stared at them. It was as if the seeds would begin to sprout if they stared hard enough.

“The children who have received their seeds can sow them in the spring. Remember to water them frequently and make sure they get lots of sunshine.” Mo Yu put away the empty bottle and patted the head of a little boy.

“Got it!”

“Thank you, Big Brother!”

“I will take good care of the fairy’s seeds!”

The group of children replied in their child-like voices.

Fang Liu looked helplessly at Mo Yu as he fooled the children with his words. But when she thought about how the children would experience the joy of planting and nurturing flowers, she felt a warmth go through her heart.

After Mo Yu distributed the seeds, everyone went back to wrapping the remaining dumplings together. Rows of dumplings were gently placed on the chopping board. They looked delicious. Some of the children were already beginning to drool.

Mo Yu was eager to help wrap the dumplings, so Fang Liu gave him a dumpling wrapper. After a few minutes, Fang Liu turned to check on Mo Yu and saw that Mo Yu was still trying to wrap a single dumpling.

Mo Yu felt that he did not seal the dumpling correctly, so he repeatedly pressed down on the sides of the wrapper.

The dumpling had a strange shape. It looked flat and empty. It was as though Mo Yu was reluctant to fill the wrapper with more stuffing. One would think that he liked to eat empty dumpling wrappers.

Fang Liu found this to be highly amusing. She quickly snatched the wrapper from Mo Yu’s hands and said, “All right, give that to me. I’ll do it for you. You can help to boil the water.”

Mo Yu felt the disdain in Fang Liu’s tone and was a little dissatisfied. However, a child beside him also echoed, “Big Brother, your dumpling is so flat. You can have it for yourself. I don’t want to eat something as flat as that.”

Mo Yu saw that everyone disliked the dumpling he made. He began to get bored of making dumplings, so he got up and went to the backyard to boil some water.

When everyone finished wrapping the remaining dumplings, the water had already come to a boil.

When the administrator found out that the Fang Liu foundation would visit the orphanage, he decided to build a temporary fire pit in the backyard with some bricks. He also stacked up a pile of wood and some dried branches next to it to use them as firewood.

Initially, Fang Liu had asked Mo Yu to come over and help, but the film director and camera crew did not dare to allow Mr. Mo to be involved in such labor. They simply told him to rest. The film crew brought over the administrator’s old recliner and told him to sit down and relax.

The recliner that the administrator used resembled an old chair that older people would use. As Mo Yu sat on it, he looked like a retired old man. When Fang Liu saw this, she could not help but laugh aloud.

Meanwhile, Fang Liu tossed the dumplings into the pot. The boiling water began to bubble, and steam could be seen rising into the air. A group of people gathered around the fire, talking and laughing. The atmosphere was rather lively.

After boiling for three minutes, the dumplings were ready to be eaten. Fang Liu walked to Mo Yu’s side and asked him which dumpling he would like to eat.

Mo Yu never liked to eat dumplings, but he didn’t want to ruin the moment when he saw the people’s happy and lively expressions. So he said casually, “I like the mushroom dumplings.”

Fang Liu happily scooped up some dumplings and put them into a bowl for Mo Yu. The Yu-Liu duo sat down and ate together. They dipped the dumplings into some fragrant vinegar and ate them one at a time. It was delicious.

Fang Liu quickly finished her small bowl of dumplings. She then wiped the corners of her mouth and sighed, “That was delicious.. I didn’t have the opportunity to eat this during Chinese New Year.”
