After talking with the original owner's children for a while, Mo Qian got up and went to the kitchen to start making breakfast.
Upon arriving in the kitchen, Mo Qian glanced at the cabinet where grains were stored. It was filled with miscellaneous grains, but not many of them.
There were also some pickled vegetables that the original owner had made before.
Mo Qian took out some flour and a few eggs from her spatial storage and made several egg pancakes.
After it was done, I carried it into the house.
"Yaya, Tiger, dinner's ready!" Mo Qian called out to the two siblings who were still happily munching on the side.
Then, they moved a bedside table and placed it on the kang (a heated brick bed).
"Mom, it smells so good! What are you making?" Ya Ya asked with a smile after sniffing the aroma in the air.
"Mother has made you something delicious. Quickly wipe your hands first." After placing the egg pancakes on the bedside table, Mo Qian picked up a wet wipe and said to the original owner's children.
"Wow! It's flour! And there are eggs on top!" Tiger exclaimed with delight when he saw the basket Mo Qian brought in.
"Mom, it's an egg pancake!" Ya Ya exclaimed excitedly after hearing Hu Zi's words.
"Yes, your maternal grandmother also brought some grain, which I have hidden away. I will cook it for you later."
"Come and wipe your hands before you eat." Mo Qian took wet wipes and wiped the hands of the original owner's children one by one.
Then, he took two egg pancakes out of the basket and handed them to Ya Ya and Hu Zi.
"Delicious! So delicious! I haven't had white flour and eggs in so long!" Tiger carefully took a bite and chewed slowly, his face showing excitement.
"Mom, it smells so good!" Ya Ya said happily as she ate.
Since Zhang Tao returned from military service, he has devoted himself to Li Qiuju and her two children.
Originally, when Zhang Tao went to join the army, he would at least send some money to the original owner.
The original owner would also use those money to improve the lives of Ya Ya and Hu Zi.
However, after Zhang Tao returned, he never thought of giving the original owner of the money again.
As a result, Ya Ya and Hu Zi haven't been eating refined grains for a long time.
"Eat as much as you like, and I'll make it for you again in the future," Mo Qian said with a loving expression.
As for whether she was worried about Zhang Tao returning halfway through, Mo Qian had no concerns at all.
According to the original owner's memories, after Zhang Tao went to Li Qiuju's house, she would usually invite him to stay for a meal.
Because Li Qiuju had excellent cooking skills, Zhang Tao harbored even more resentment towards the original owner of the body.
He always praised Li Qiuju for being gentle and considerate, and for having a courtyard full of flowers that exuded a cultured atmosphere.
But Li Qiuju only had a first-grade education and was only good at pretending.
After Mo Qian and the other two had finished their egg pancakes for a while, they were sitting in the house roasting sweet potatoes.
Zhang Tao returned from outside and, before even sitting down, addressed Mo Qian.
"Qianniang, if you go earlier next time, you'll have already washed all of Li Meizi's bedding."
“When I went there today, Li Meizi’s eldest son wasn’t paying attention, and the mud from his shoes got all over the bed.”
Zhang Tao gave the instructions as usual.
“Li Meizi is in a difficult situation without a man, so let’s help her as much as possible.”
"I'm not going! If you want to go, go by yourself!" Mo Qian replied with a serious expression after hearing Zhang Tao's words.
He looked very serious.
"Qian Niang?" Zhang Tao was still muttering to himself when he suddenly heard Mo Qian's words. His face showed a hint of surprise, as if he hadn't expected Mo Qian to refuse.
After all, Qian Niang had agreed to it before.
"What's wrong with you? How can you be so insensible!"
"I've told you so many times, Han Shang died to save me, and now we need to take good care of his wife and children."
“Li Meizi is a young woman, and taking care of the children is tiring enough for her. We’ll help her with these small chores if we can.”
"You should know how to be grateful," Zhang Tao said to Mo Qian with a displeased look.
His face still held a hint of anger.
"What does this have to do with me!"
"Han Shang saved you, so go and repay his kindness. Don't drag me into it." Mo Qian was equally displeased.
"Besides, you spend all your monthly salary on them and don't bring a single penny home. Isn't that enough?"
"Of course it's not enough. It saved my life. What's a little money?"
"Li Meizi lost her husband, and her child lost her father. We owe them this! We can never repay them in our lifetime!" Zhang Tao shouted angrily.
"If you owe me, you owe me; don't drag me into it."
“Since Li Qiuju has lost her husband and her child has lost her father, I will give them a replacement.”
"Go and be their husband and father!" Mo Qian said to Zhang Tao with a cold expression.
"Are you crazy? What are you saying?!" Only then did Zhang Tao realize that Mo Qian was really acting strangely.
What woman would push her own man away?
I initially thought Mo Qian was just a little unhappy and throwing a tantrum.
But when Mo Qian said those words, Zhang Tao was shocked.
"Am I wrong? Ever since you came back from the army, you've devoted yourself to those three."
“You don’t care about the family at all, and you don’t contribute a single penny to the family.”
"They don't even care about their own daughters and sons."
"Since you're so worried about them, then you should be their husband and father."
"Stop constantly talking about repaying their kindness. Isn't giving yourself to them the best way to repay their kindness?" Mo Qian said, crossing her arms.
His face was completely indifferent.
"You! You're utterly unreasonable!" Zhang Tao's face turned very ugly after hearing Mo Qian's words.
Although he did think that Li Meizi was better than his own wife, given the current situation, how could he so easily admit it?
