Chapter 25 Eating chicken drumsticks for the first time in life
Feng Xiaojing came in from the back door of the kitchen. Feng Mian was busy stewing chicken. The aroma rushed into her nose, arousing her appetite.
Feng Xiaojing has the lowest status in the Feng family. The family can only eat meat during festivals and festivals, and she has no chance of eating meat.
If her grandmother hadn't occasionally hidden one or two pieces for her, she wouldn't even be able to smell the meat.
Smelling the delicious chicken, she couldn't help swallowing.
"Mianmian."
Feng Mian, who was busy, raised his head and said, "My little cousin is here, please sit down."
"I won't sit down. I just came to see what you are doing." She was still thinking about the housework. She stayed up late every day, and if she stayed up again, she didn't know what time she would finish.
Feng Mian saw her standing aside with an awkward look on her face, so he put out the open flame in the stove, leaving only the charcoal burning slowly.
She came to her and asked, "What's wrong? Come, sit down first and talk slowly."
The two of them had a very good relationship. They used to be a pair of suffering sisters in the Feng family. After Feng Mian passed away, she was the only oppressed person left.
Feng Mian knew her difficulties.
Feng Xiaojing sighed and said, "Ah! It's my mom who insisted on letting me see what you guys are doing. Actually, I don't understand what she means, but I'll just take a look anyway."
Feng Mian gave her a bowl of stewed chicken soup and put a chicken leg in it.
"Eat first, and then we'll talk slowly."
"I'm done." Feng Xiaojing said blankly.
Feng Mian smiled and thought that she was quite honest.
She pushed the bowl in her hand and said, "Hurry up and take it."
The aroma was so fragrant that Feng Xiaojing swallowed again and carefully brought the bowl to the table.
She has never eaten chicken legs in her life.
But her mother always said that she was stupid and that eating chicken heads could improve her brain, so she always stuffed the chicken heads into her bowl.
My cousin is even more pitiful. She doesn’t even have chicken legs. It’s good enough if she can have chicken butts to eat.
"Is it for me?" Looking at the chicken leg seemed unreal.
"Well, here you go." Feng Mian said with a smile.
Feng Xiaojing suddenly felt like crying.
Thinking back to when they wanted to drive her cousin away, she felt that she would be pitiful and would starve to death.
Now I realize that my cousin is living a better life away from them. If she wants to eat chicken, she can eat it wherever she wants.
One bite and your mouth is filled with fragrance.
After swallowing it, she took another big bite of meat, wrapped it in her mouth and said to Feng Mian: "Chicken legs are much more delicious than chicken heads. They are really delicious."
Feng Mian smiled and said, "Take your time to eat. There's more in the pot. I'll fill it up for you later."
Feng Xiaomei shook her head, "No, how much delicious food is enough? There are three working people in your family who need to eat and drink."
"I have enough in the pot."
Feng Xiaomei quickly ate the chicken drumsticks and drank the chicken soup, then said, "I have to go back home. I still have work to do."
"It's almost time for the summer, what are you busy with?"
"What else could it be? My sister is getting married, and the time between engagement and wedding is so tight. Making clothes for her is going to drive me crazy."
"Ah? Your aunt asked you to do it?"
"What else? My sister has been in poor health recently, so my mother asked her to rest more and not get sick when getting married, which is unlucky. My mother made her shoe soles, two pairs for her and her brother-in-law. I made clothes for my sister, and I had to make two sets. My mother also bought some yarn and asked me to knit a scarf for each of them."
Feng Mian wondered what other illness Feng Xiaomei could have? It's true that she is pregnant, but it has caused great harm to my little cousin.
"There's no rush. Sit for a while. I'll get you something."
Feng Mian took out a big bowl, put half a chicken in it and asked her to take it back to her grandparents.
"She sneaked in through the back door and went in through the front door. My aunt saw her. She'll probably end up in my cousin's belly."
"This..." She looked embarrassed.
Feng Mian asked, "Is there anything good at home recently that is always on my cousin's side?"
Feng Xiaojing was surprised, "How did you know?"
Feng Mian saw through it and smiled without saying anything.
