Zhang Siyu was involved in a car accident. When she opened her eyes again, she was in a small fishing village in the 1960s, as Cheng Zhenzhu, a widow single-handedly raising three children.
T...
The direction he ran was exactly the kitchen. The little guy popped his head out and tried hard to wave his hands towards his mother.
Er Tiao didn't bother to argue and just let him be. Cheng Zhenzhu stared at the little ones' expectant eyes, stopped teasing them, and went to wash her hands and cook.
They all took one look and followed him into the kitchen.
In an instant, the kitchen was overrun by the children. One and two fought over the wooden block to help light the fire. In the end, the second one got the stove for cooking, and the first one got the stove for cooking.
Number three observed and guessed his mother was going to wash the pot, so he quickly presented her with some loofah. Number six was already standing on a small stool to get a kitchen knife. Numbers seven and eight, unable to find anything to do, stood on tiptoe to look at the pot.
It seems very urgent...
"Give me the knife. Don't take it next time." Cheng Zhenzhu took the kitchen knife from Liu Tiao's hand and said, "I'm having scrambled eggs for lunch today. Who's going to get me four eggs? You all know where the eggs are, right?"
Seven and eight raised their hands. They knew where the eggs were.
"I know, I'll get it!" Liu Tiao turned around and ran into the living room in a few steps, raising dust.
Oh? Seven and Eight were shocked and disappointed to see Six disappear in an instant. They couldn't help...
"It's okay, Seven, Eight, just sit down." Cheng Zhenzhu put the rice on the table and looked at the two lonely little ones and consoled them, "Get the eggs, get the food. You brothers can't compete with Six for this kind of work."
So it's normal for you two to fall behind.
Qi Tiao and Ba Tiao nodded, feeling comforted. Liu Tiao seemed to be particularly quick with things related to food...
Liu Tiao came back quickly, holding an egg in each of his two little hands, and two more in his trouser pockets, "Mom, do you want scrambled eggs with ham?"
"No, I didn't. I just had ham a few days ago." Cheng Zhenzhu cracked the eggs into a bowl and plucked two shallots from the front door, planning to make scrambled eggs with shallots. She then took a kitchen knife and cut a small piece from the large piece of bacon hanging from the kitchen beam. While the children weren't noticing, she quietly took out a handful of asparagus.
Today's lunch consisted of scrambled eggs with green onions, stir-fried bacon with asparagus, and a seaweed and shrimp soup. Forty minutes later, the vegetables were almost done and the rice was steamed.
Cheng Zhenzhu lifted the lid of the pot, grabbed the bowl of rice, scooped the rice in, and then covered the rice with the large layer of rice crust. Dipping the rice crust in vegetable juices and soup was a favorite of the children. She liked to do this occasionally, too. But most of the time, she was lazy and preferred to cook directly in the rice cooker in her space, so there wasn't much rice crust...
The rice was served, and the seaweed and shrimp soup was ready. Several children lined up to wash their hands, pick up their bowls, and grab their chopsticks, without Cheng Zhenzhu having to say a word.
"The rice crust is so delicious!" I was so happy to eat rice crust which I hadn't eaten for a long time.
"It's delicious, eat more." Cheng Zhenzhu picked up some food for the seventh and eighth children who had short arms, and also picked up some for the third child who ate less.
Liu Tiao soaked the rice crust in seaweed and shrimp soup, dipped it in some bacon juice, and scooped a full spoonful of scrambled eggs with green onions onto the rice crust, eating until his mouth was full of oil. The little guy saw his mother picking up food for his brothers San Tiao, Qi Tiao, and Ba Tiao, but skipping him. He shook his head and said, "Mom also loves Liu Tiao, and told him to eat more..."
Three, seven, and eight looked at the rice sticking out of six's bowl and fell silent.
Cheng Zhenzhu let out a laugh and nearly choked. She didn't dare tell Liu Tiao about this. But it was quite miraculous that the little guy could eat so much without ever getting food stuck in his stomach...
"Mom, I want another piece of rice crust." We ate little this morning and went for a walk in the town. Even San Tiao and Qi Tiao, who had small appetites, ate half a bowl of rice more than usual and a large piece of rice crust. Now they still wanted to eat more.
Cheng Zhenzhu made a piece of strips one by one, and there was an extra bowl at hand, which contained eight strips.
Ba Tiao held the bowl and said to his mother happily, "I want a big bowl, like brother Liu Tiao."
One by one, they were eating rice and thinking, this doesn't look right!
Liu Tiao looked at Ba Tiao's small body, sized him up and down, then shook his head and said, "Your little belly can't hold so much food..." He had developed a big belly from training since he was a child!
Cheng Zhenzhu was afraid Ba Tiao would be too full, so she only gave him a small bowl of rice. Ba Tiao didn't complain about it being too little, and after finishing it happily, he asked for a big bowl of rice crust.
Is this trying to emulate Liu Tiao, the king of gluttony? Cheng Zhenzhu tore off a piece, dipped it in the soup, and fed it to Ba Tiao. She then carried the little guy off the table and said, "Alright, Ba Tiao, your lunch is over for today!"
Ba Tiao felt a little disappointed. Then he saw his brother Liu Tiao being carried off the table, and instantly became happy. But when his mother went to wash the dishes, he saw his brother Liu Tiao chewing the rice crust again!
"Okay. Let's go up the mountain to collect firewood today!" Yi Tiao was making a fire today and found that there was not much firewood at home. After finishing his meal, he immediately organized activities for his younger brothers.
With a single command, the five-man team quickly assembled. One of them took the lead, told his mother, and set off from home with his brothers.
Not far away, I saw Yu Haidan from Xu Xia's house.
"Hehe, Yitiao, has your family cooked something delicious again? It smells so good! Is it meat?" Ever since Yu Xiaolong helped Yitiao fight at school one time, he felt that he and Yitiao were friends. He no longer ran away when he saw him, but came over happily to talk.
Yi Tiao now wants to hide whenever he sees Yu Haidan's smirk. The last time he got into a fight, Yu Haidan had to jump in and join in the fun. He couldn't fight him off, and he couldn't run away, constantly holding him back. That was fine, but he even started asking him for food! It was outrageous!
Er Tiao doesn't like Yu Haidan, but that doesn't stop him from showing off. "It's so delicious!"
