Chapter 15 I feel so happy!
He quickly put down the firewood in his hand, stepped forward and grabbed his brother.
"Brother, you can't eat it!"
"We just satisfied our cravings last night. Grandma said that eggs are for my aunt to nourish her body."
As he spoke, Goudan glanced at Lin Tang's covered head.
They are still young, so eating it occasionally is enough. Don’t harm your aunt.
Lin Tang was deeply moved by the warm-hearted and sensible Goudan. "It's okay, Auntie is full. Besides, it's time for lunch soon."
Her injury has healed long ago.
I'm not really greedy for this egg.
As he said this, he picked up the stinky egg and placed it on his lap, then fed the egg into his little nephew's mouth.
The kid is four years old, but he is very light.
Lin Tang sighed in his heart, wishing he could get some good things as soon as possible to make the babies at home plump and chubby.
Seeing that his brother didn't try to stop him, the stinky little devil smiled so hard that his eyes curved.
Ah Wu swallowed the egg in one gulp.
White jade-like egg white and mouth-watering egg yolk.
In this age of scarcity of oil and water, it is a delicacy that people never get tired of eating.
"Good, delicious!" Choudan's bright and clear eyes widened with admiration.
Lin Tang was so touched by the cuteness of the child that he reached out to rub his head and turned his gaze to Goudan.
"Goudan, come here, have a bite too."
Goudan swallowed his saliva, lifted his legs and ran out, talking as he ran.
"I don't want to eat it. You eat it, little aunt."
The egg was so small that if he ate one more bite, his aunt would eat one less bite.
Seeing the thin body disappear at the door, Lin Tang sighed and liked the little guy even more.
A well-behaved and sensible child always makes people feel a little soft-hearted.
"If your brother doesn't want to eat it, we can eat it ourselves." Lin Tang said.
But Choudan refused to do it and twisted his little body to get down to the ground.
I took a reluctant look at the fragrant eggs in my aunt's hand.
He turned around and ran towards the door.
Lin Tang felt mixed emotions as he watched the little guy staggering towards the direction where Goudan had disappeared.
Oh!
I want to go to the county!
Want to work and make money!
I want to buy meat, candy, and good things...
But she knew without wanting to know that she might not be able to leave the house in the short term, let alone go to the county.
After Lin Tang had breakfast, he returned to his room and took out the things his father had sent him last night.
Her father said that this was a gift from the Liu family to sever ties with the emperor.
A little bit of cloth, not enough to make even a child's dress, and a few mung bean cakes.
The mung bean cake looks soft and must have been bought from the supply and marketing cooperative.
At this time, the food is not exquisite, it is good enough to eat it.
On the other side, Goudan guessed that his aunt had finished her meal, so he took his younger brother Choudan back to the yard.
Seeing his brother's dirty hands, Goudan sighed like an adult.
"Brother, stop playing in the mud. If you get your clothes dirty, be careful or your dad will beat you." These words were obviously a threat.
Choudan is small in stature, and his face is also small like Ning Xinrou, very delicate and pretty.
Facing her brother's dissatisfied expression, she just smiled softly.
Goudan felt helpless when he saw the soft smile on his brother's face.
I accepted my fate and became a nanny.
When Lin Tang saw this scene of "brotherly love and respect", a smile appeared on his face.
He didn't go forward to help. After the two children finished, he took the small paper bag and walked over.
"Goudan, Stinky Egg, I have some food here, please eat it."
Goudan looked up and saw that it was soft and sticky with a sweet taste.
"Auntie, what is this?" The child's eyes lit up.
This thing looks more delicious than sugar water.
In Goudan's eyes, sugar water is the most delicious thing.
So sweet!
After taking a sip, I feel so happy.
Lin Tang handed him the paper package and said, "This is mung bean cake. The county supply and marketing cooperative has it. You can have it."
"Gurgle..."
The two boys looked at the small paper bag in their hands and swallowed.
Goudan reluctantly pulled his eyes away from the paper bag and looked at Lin Tang, "Aunt, you don't want to eat it?"
This is good stuff.
Lin Tang: "I've eaten it all, this is for you, eat it quickly.
I'm going to boil some water, your grandparents will be back soon."
After saying that, he went to the kitchen.
Goudan carefully pinched a piece for his brother and said, "Brother, you eat first. I'll go help my aunt."
Choudan took the small piece of mung bean cake with his skinny little hand and took a lick.
Tian's eyes were curved into crescents.
"Brother, it's delicious."
"This is from the supply and marketing cooperative, of course it's delicious. Okay, take your time and just stay home."
Don't go out, I'm going to the kitchen." Goudan said, patting his brother's head.
"Okay~" said Stinky Egg softly.
Lin Tang was busy in the kitchen and was stunned when he saw Goudan.
"Why are you here?"
"Aunt, let me help you." As he said that, he sat down in front of the stove and started to light the fire.
Children from poor families have to grow up early.
In rural areas of this era, a child of Goudan’s age can already be considered half an adult.
He deftly placed the dry, flammable leaves into the stove.
He struck a match and slowly ignited it.
Then put in some dry firewood and the fire in the stove will be lit.
Lin Tang gave a thumbs up and praised: "Goudan is really capable."
She still has a lot to learn!
Goudan's dark face turned red, and he said embarrassedly: "My aunt can do it too."
"Of course, I will be the pillar of the family in the future."
"Okay, you're not needed here anymore. Go out and watch over Choudan, and don't let anyone bully him." Lin Tang sent his nephew away.
When Goudan saw that there was nothing for him to do, he took the small paper bag and planned to go out.
"Then I'll go out. I'll be in the yard. If you need anything, don't forget to call me."
Lin Tang couldn't help laughing when he heard his little adult-like words.
Goudan went out and saw that Choudan had finished eating all the mung bean cake.
He is licking the pastry crumbs on his hands at this moment.
Seeing his brother coming, the little guy's eyes lit up, "Brother, it's delicious."
Her bright and clear eyes stared at the paper bag in Goudan's hand, and her face showed that she wanted to eat another piece.
"We only have these few pieces. We can't eat them all. Grandma, Dad, Mom and Dad haven't eaten them yet. We have to leave some for the family."
Seeing his brother looking so pitiful, Goudan's heart softened and he said, "I'll give you a small half, and we'll keep the rest!"
As he said that, he took out his own piece.
I broke off half and gave it to my brother.
The two brothers began to eat happily.
"It's so delicious!" Goudan ate it in small bites with great care.
Sweet and soft, so delicious!
Stinky Egg also said beside him: "Delicious!"
-
On the way home from work at noon.
Li Xiuli was walking with her two daughters-in-law when she saw Zhao Honghua.
"Honghua, why do you look thinner again? Is there no food at home?"
Li Xiuli looked at her friend's pale face and frowned.
It's only been a few days, and Honghua looks even thinner.
A gust of wind could blow her away.
Ning Xinrou and Zhou Mei greeted Zhao Honghua with a smile, then walked faster and headed forward.
Zhao Honghua smiled and explained, "There's food at home, I just haven't had much of an appetite these past two days."
Then he changed the subject, "You married both good daughters-in-law!"
I hope her son Ziqiang can also marry a good wife.
Ziqiang is already eighteen years old, and it’s time for him to get married.
But the family is poor, and the child's father doesn't care about anything, so the good daughter looks down on her family's conditions.
Thinking of this, Zhao Honghua felt a little worried.
at night.
Stinky Egg was wearing a small vest, revealing his plump little belly.
Ruanruan said, "Brother, brother, when can we eat eggs again? Stinky Egg wants to eat eggs."
The little guy is still thinking about the eggs he ate during the day.
Goudan scratched his head.
After thinking for a moment, he replied, "...if the brothers and sisters vote a little more, we'll have eggs to eat."
The stinky little face lit up with joy, and his clear eyes curved into little crescents.
"Tickets, tickets, stinky egg needs tickets."
"I want it too." Goudan chuckled, then suddenly had an idea and said, "...then you go and ask me for some money first."
Stinky Egg nodded seriously, stood up, and put on a serious face like a little adult.
"I'm asking for votes too, thanks, brothers and sisters~" (bow)
