Aunt Yu stared at the money in her hand. "Where did this come from?"
Jiang Ci didn't hide anything and said frankly, "The compensation Li Hu gave me is also the cornmeal I returned to you."
Sister-in-law Yu looked at her for a long time, seemingly lost in thought. Since she had money, of course she should take it.
Her family raised several old hens that laid eggs, so the Yu family had no shortage of eggs.
But her family is short of money!
When Jiang Ci left the Yu family, the cornmeal in her cloth bag had turned into thirteen eggs.
Jiang Ci took out three eggs and put them in the pot to cook together.
He took over Zhou Miao's job of tending the fire and said to the two children, "Go wash your hands and faces clean, we'll eat in a bit."
Zhou Miao and Zhou Yang immediately ran out like the wind and began to use ladles to scoop water to wash their hands and faces.
Jiang Ci threw a few pieces of firewood into the fire, washed a cucumber, and somewhat clumsily sliced it into thick slices. Without sesame oil, and guessing that the two children couldn't eat spicy food, Jiang Ci didn't even add garlic. She simply put the cucumber slices into the bowl.
Once the eggs were cooked, Jiang Ci hurriedly lifted the lid of the pot and took out the two hot steamed buns and the eggs.
It was very hot. Jiang Ci's hands were scalded several times by the steam, the steamed bun, and the egg, but as the heat subsided, her hands were completely unharmed.
When the two children gathered around the kitchen, looking at her expectantly, Jiang Ci peeled the egg, revealing the smooth, white egg white inside.
The child swallowed very loudly.
“Gurgle…”
Jiang Ci looked down and met the bright, sparkling eyes of the two children.
Zhou Yang stood on tiptoe and stretched out his hand to ask for eggs, "Mom... Mom, I want to eat eggs, give me eggs..."
Zhou Miao's eyes were also uncontrollably glued to the egg. She pursed her lips tightly and lowered her head without saying a word.
Mom gave all the eggs to Yangyang, so I'll just eat cornbread. Cornbread is enough to fill me up...
But... I still really want to eat eggs...
That's an egg...
Zhou Yang was very persistent. Since he had both children, it didn't matter who he gave it to first.
Jiang Ci didn't think much of it and casually handed the egg she had peeled to Zhou Yang, warning, "Don't eat too fast, the yolk can be choking."
Zhou Yang had already stuffed the egg into his mouth.
Zhou Miao couldn't help but look at the sound of people wolfing down their food, which made him greedy.
The eggs smell so good!
She wanted to eat it too.
But her mother only gave food to Yangyang; she had never eaten eggs.
Zhou Miao looked a little dejected, but she couldn't help but drool with desire, her eyes turning red as she kept swallowing.
suddenly.
Before her eyes appeared a large, white, and tender egg with its shell peeled.
Zhou Miao was stunned.
