Outside the classroom.
Lu Yuanbao used the faucet next to the playground to wash the dust off the eggs. After wiping them slightly, he peeled the eggshell and brought the white and tender eggs to Chen Dazhuang.
"Da Zhuang, don't be upset, eat the eggs. Look, the eggs are still good, not broken at all."
Chen Dazhuang looked as weak as an eggplant hit by frost. His chubby round face was haggard and listless. He didn't even take the egg that Lu Yuanbao handed to him, as if he had lost his soul.
Lu Yuanbao stared at him for a long time, not knowing what to do. He didn't know how to comfort people, nor did he know why Chen Dazhuang was sad.
Aren’t eggs fine?
Lu Yuanbao had no choice but to put the eggs on Chen Dazhuang’s lunch box.
He found a clean stone nearby and sat down, then opened Lai Chuyue's packed lunch box. In the lunch box there was a small chicken drumstick, a small steamed bun, and... an omelet!
They were all egg pancakes, at least five or six of them.
Golden eggs are mixed with wheat flour and chopped wild vegetables, stirred into a batter, and fried in hot oil with a sizzling sound.
The eggs soaked up with fat and turned golden brown, and paired with the green and flavorful wild vegetables, it looked both beautiful and fragrant.
Especially when Chu Yue was making the batter, she added a spoonful of lard, which made the wild vegetable omelet even more fragrant!
Lu Yuanbao didn’t eat the chicken leg first. Instead, he stared at the omelet, picked up the omelet and took a big bite.
He lowered his head, secretly glanced at Chen Dazhuang, and suddenly started talking loudly, "Wow... It's an omelet! The fragrant omelet, the eggs are golden yellow, so fragrant... Mmm - so delicious! The wild vegetable omelet is so delicious, I can eat five in one breath -"
While Lu Yuanbao was speaking, Chen Dazhuang, who was so "heartbroken" that he had lost his appetite, moved his ears and looked at the golden egg pancake again and again.
My body reacted instinctively and I swallowed.
Chen Dazhuang took another look at Lu Yuanbao's lunch box. If Lu Yuanbao ate five, wouldn't all the omelets be gone?
Gurgle Gurgle——
Chen Dazhuang's stomach made a sound of hunger. He rubbed his hungry stomach, moved closer to Lu Yuanbao, and asked in a low voice, "Yuanbao, is the egg pancake really so delicious?"
Lu Yuanbao's eyes sparkled, "It's delicious, of course it's delicious! My mother made it herself, with lots of eggs."
When Chen Dazhuang got closer, he smelled the aroma of the wild vegetable egg pancake, and his saliva was secreted even more. "Yuanbao, I want to eat egg pancakes too. Can you give me one? I'll exchange it with you for a boiled egg."
"No need to change." Lu Yuanbao smiled happily and picked up an egg pancake and handed it to Chen Dazhuang, "Here you go."
"Yuanbao, you are indeed my good brother!"
Chen Dazhuang took the omelet, sat down happily, and ate the omelet in big mouthfuls, "Mmm! Delicious! So delicious! How can the omelet be so delicious! I will ask my mom to make it for me when I go home! The omelet is so delicious!"
As Chen Dazhuang ate, he became happier and happier, and his chubby face finally returned to its usual smile.
He had forgotten all about Tan Rourou. Nothing was as important as the egg pancake.
After Chen Dazhuang ate two egg pancakes from Lu Yuanbao, he felt embarrassed to eat any more, so he started eating his boiled eggs.
He had food in his mouth but he continued to talk. "Omelettes are the best. Boiled eggs are a little bit worse than omelettes. But boiled eggs are also delicious. Eggs are delicious! They are the most comfortable when eaten."
Lu Yuanbao looked at Chen Dazhuang's cheerful expression and felt relieved.
…
In the city, the shop that Chu Yue rented before.
"Master! These things were ordered by our boss. She paid for them. You can't take them away!" Ye Zhaodi stood at the door of the shop with her arms open, staring at the two people in the shop, trying to stop them from moving things out.
In the shop were the master carpenter Chu Yue had met that day, and his apprentice, a boy of about seventeen or eighteen years old.
The young man was dragging the cabinet that he had spent five days making and was trying to take it away from the store.
The old master shook his head at Ye Zhaodi. "It's true that your boss paid the money, but she only paid a deposit. I finished the ten-day work in eight days. In these eight days, your boss has not shown up once. Go out and ask around. Is there any boss like this? I think your boss is a liar! Little girl, since you are young, I'm kindly reminding you not to be deceived without knowing it."
"Impossible! Sister Yue wouldn't lie to me! She...she...must have something going on and couldn't come!" Ye Zhaodi hadn't seen Chu Yue for eight days.
On the one hand, she had to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to "steal skills" and learn, and on the other hand, she had to keep an eye on the carpenters in the shop working. She watched for eight days and eight nights, but Chu Yue didn't show up once.
Even so, Ye Zhaodi still didn't believe that Chu Yue was a liar.
Not only did Chu Yue help her slap Boss Zhou in the face, she also gave her a job and taught her how to study and improve. How could such a good person be a liar?
Ye Zhaodi tried to explain, "Our boss spent a lot of money to take over this shop and paid a year's rent. The shop is here. How could she be a liar?"
"I've told you that you're young and inexperienced. Is what you saw real? What if they're playing a double act to deceive you? Little girl, listen to my advice. Go home quickly and don't follow this boss. There's no such unreliable boss!" The old master pointed at the cabinets he made. "My apprentice and I spent a lot of effort to make these cabinets. Now that we can't get paid, we want to take the things away!"
"No! No!" Ye Zhaodi rushed over and pressed down the cabinet that was being dragged. She pressed so hard that her face turned red, but she continued to confront the master. "Sister Yue paid you. I saw it with my own eyes. You also said ten days. Now that the ten days have not come, it is not considered a breach of contract. Even if you really want to take the things away, you have to wait until ten days later. Even after ten days, you can only take half."
The old master had never seen such a stubborn girl before, "You are really..."
The apprentice at the side didn't have the patience of the master, and was too lazy to listen to Ye Zhaodi's nonsense. He dragged the cabinet hard and shouted at Ye Zhaodi, "Let go of me, or don't blame me for being rude! These cabinets are made by me with great effort, and they are mine if you don't pay for them!"
"I won't let go! Sister A Yue is not a liar, she will come!" Ye Zhaodi used all her strength and still held the cabinet tightly.
The carpenter's apprentice frowned, anxious and impatient, too lazy to waste any more words, and just walked over and pulled Ye Zhaodi's arm.
He exerted all his strength, "Get down—"
