After lunch, Yu Li ran out under the pretext of going to the toilet, hid in the corner, took out the egg given by Li Qinghe, and tried to eat it secretly.
It is harder than climbing to the sky to eat an egg in Yan's house. Looking at the white and tender egg in my hand, I feel happy in my heart.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing here?"
Just after taking a small bite, a girl's voice came from behind.
Yu Li was startled and turned around to find that it was Yan Jiedi. She felt a little relieved. If her father-in-law and others knew that she had stolen the eggs, she would be doomed and would be put on trial.
Yan Jiedi also saw the eggs in Yu Li's hand, and her eyes lit up, "Sister-in-law, where did you get these eggs?"
Yu Li's heart tightened. She couldn't let this girl tell on the secret. Her brain was working frantically and she instantly thought of a reason.
"Well, this is something my sister secretly gave me. She passed by our place yesterday and happened to see me, so she gave me one. I'll give you half of it. Don't tell anyone else, okay?"
"Uh-huh!"
Yan Jie Di nodded repeatedly. She was also very greedy. She had forgotten how long it had been since she had eaten meat. At this moment, she had no time to think about anything else. She just wanted to put the eggs into her mouth quickly. She drank a big bowl of egg soup at home, which did not taste like eggs at all.
In order to shut her sister-in-law up, Yu Li broke most of the egg in half and handed it to her with a distressed look on her face.
Swish!
Yan Jiedi grabbed the egg in her hand in an instant, and an afterimage appeared.
The moment she put the egg in her mouth, a happy smile appeared on her face, "It's delicious."
Yu Li was afraid that the little girl would miss the remaining eggs in her hand, so she quickly stuffed them into her mouth. Feeling the fragrant taste, her heart ached again. This was specially given to me by Li Qinghe...
"Jie Di, you can't tell your family about the eggs."
Yu Li hugged Yan Jiedi and whispered something to her.
"Then sister-in-law must share some eggs with me next time." Yan Jiedi immediately put forward the condition. After being influenced by the Yan family's education, she learned to calculate at a young age.
"Okay, sister-in-law will think of you whenever she has something delicious." Yu Li agreed immediately. At worst, she could just stay away from the delicious food next time.
"Okay, I promise you." Yan Jiedi looked happy.
…
On the other side, at the Jia family, Qin Huairu was eating a steamed bun.
Jia Zhang folded her hands on the table and looked at her with a gloomy face. The three children took their steamed buns and ate them silently. Jia Zhang was not too partial. The two girls could also eat the white steamed buns.
"Don't feel wronged. Can't you just ask me?"
"It's not what you think." Qin Huairu defended herself aggrievedly.
Jia Zhang didn't believe a word of what she said, "These steamed buns are free? I believe one or half, they are out of pity for us, but these are five big white steamed buns, do you think it was in 1958 when we had free food and drink?"
Qin Huairu stopped eating and shed two tears, "Anyway, I haven't done anything wrong."
She felt extremely aggrieved. She felt sorry for many people, but she was only sorry for the Jia family. In order to let the child and the old woman have something good to eat, she cheated Xu Damao of a few steamed buns, and when she came back, she was still suspected by Jia Zhang.
Jia Zhang glanced at her sideways and said sarcastically, "You know whether you have done anything wrong or not. Anyway, this steamed bun is not easy to come by."
Banggeng, who was chewing a steamed bun, immediately became unhappy when he heard this.
As long as there is delicious food, it doesn’t matter where it comes from, the most important thing is to be full.
"Grandma, my mom worked so hard to get me the steamed buns, why don't you eat them? Why are you blaming my mom? If you don't want to eat them, I will."
When Jia Zhang saw that her grandson did not stand on her side, she became angry and glared at him.
"What are you doing butting in on, you little bastard?"
After saying that, he broke off half of a steamed bun and started eating it with an unhappy look on his face. Although he scolded his daughter-in-law, he still had to eat.
Qin Huairu couldn't bear the grievance and ran out wiping her tears.
Bang Geng lost his confidence when he saw Qin Huairu leave. He glanced at Jia Zhang carefully and whispered, "I still have school this afternoon."
Xiaodang and Huaihua looked at their brother, dared not say a word, and lowered their heads to eat in silence.
Qin Huairu ran to the rabbit fence, crying and throwing vegetable stalks into the fence, feeling very aggrieved.
Ever since Jia Dongxu died, the burden of the family fell on herself. As a woman, she has to support a family of five without anyone to rely on. Even to get a few steamed buns for the children, she has to rely on two men, Xu Damao and He Yuzhu. When will this life end?
"Silly Zhu is back."
"Hey, the food is good."
Just when she was feeling aggrieved, she heard a voice from outside the yard and quickly wiped her tears with her sleeves.
"Hey, you're feeding rabbits in this cold weather." As soon as I entered the room, I saw Qin Huairu feeding rabbits and couldn't help but tease her.
Then he realized that something was wrong with the other person and looked down slightly, "Are you crying?"
"No, my eyes are blurry." Qin Huairu replied with a slight nasal tone.
Seeing that the other party didn't want to say more, He Yuzhu didn't ask any more questions, so he handed the shirt over and said, "Hey, did you see it?"
"Whose is it?"
"Um... someone gave it to me and it's too small for me!~" He Yuzhu had the nerve to say that he took it off Xu Damao.
Qin Huairu glanced at him, clearly not believing him, but she didn't point it out. She took it unceremoniously and said, "Then I'll modify it so that the stick stem can fit."
"Um."
After saying that, he walked away directly, leaving He Yuzhu dumbfounded.
"Hey, you didn't even say thank you."
“It’s true.”
But he was used to it, so he didn't care much and turned to the front yard.
The third aunt was washing dishes by the sink. He Yuzhu ran over and said, "Third aunt, I'm not kidding you. Have you seen Teacher Ran, the Banggeng?"
"I've seen him before. He's so handsome and delicate." The third aunt said with admiration.
