Then came Grandpa's response.
"There are no eggs in the chicken coop. I checked it when I let the chickens out just now."
In the yard, Mei Cuiping waved to her husband, then frowned and cursed at her own spotted hen.
"That damned old hen, whose head was chopped off, laid her eggs in the woodpile."
Yun Aiguo leaned over and saw his wife reaching into the pile of dry firewood and picking out two bright white eggs. His eyes widened immediately and he said in surprise, "She really laid eggs."
Cluck.
At this time, the spotted hen was leading a group of chicks that had begun to grow wings, feathers and combs, walking in the yard in a swaggering manner, clucking at Mei Cuiping, asking for food.
Mei Cuiping turned her head and glared at the spotted hen.
"Luckily, I was very careful when I got firewood this morning, otherwise these two eggs would have been wasted. I prepared a chicken coop for you, but you didn't go into it. You even had the nerve to come here and ask for food. You eat more than a duck in a day, and the two eggs you lay are only as big as one duck egg. Sooner or later, I'm going to kill you and make soup for Mianmian."
When Yunmian heard her grandmother scolding the spotted hen in the yard, the corners of her mouth twitched fiercely.
The hen was really wronged.
I had embezzled half of last night's ration, so I must not have been full, which is why I kept asking grandma for food early in the morning.
"Grandma, please don't kill Xiaohua. Xiaohua can lay eggs and is cute. If you kill Xiaohua, these chicks will be left without a mother. The chicks will be very pitiful without a mother."
Yun Mian felt really guilty, so she quickly climbed out of bed, put on her shoes, walked to the door, opened it, and rubbed her sleepy eyes to plead with the hen.
"No, no, for our Mianmian's sake, I'll let it live."
Seeing her little granddaughter rubbing her sleepy eyes and standing at the door with a mess of hair, and speaking with a nasal tone as if she had just woken up, and her voice was even softer than her grandmother's, Mei Cuiping was immediately overwhelmed by her cuteness. She had no time to care about the hen and walked towards the door of the room where Yunmian was sleeping with two eggs.
"This morning, grandma made you lard and green onion eggs. Grandma's fried lard and green onion eggs are so delicious."
In her previous life, Yunmian had eaten lard and green onion eggs fried by her grandmother, which were indeed delicious. When her grandmother mentioned lard and green onion eggs, Yunmian recalled the taste and couldn't help licking the corner of her mouth with her tongue.
Seeing her licking the corner of her mouth, Mei Cuiping knew she was greedy. She smiled, turned around and instructed her husband, "Mianmian is hungry. Grandpa, hurry to the kitchen to get some water and light the fire. I'll comb Mianmian's hair and then we'll fry some eggs."
Yun Aiguo agreed to his wife and strode towards the kitchen.
Yunmian withdrew her gaze and wanted to tell her grandmother that she could comb her hair by herself, but seeing her grandmother's eager expression, she held back.
Finally, grandma made six buns for her with the colorful wool for knitting sweaters, and tied two big bows on the two buns on top of her head with the pink scarf she bought yesterday.
"It's so beautiful if we braid our hair into six braids and tie them with a bow."
Yunmian wanted to ignore the six sky rockets on her head, but her grandmother was too excited and directly moved the dowry mirror in front of her, holding the mirror in front of her chubby little face so that she could recognize herself clearly.
Yun Mian looked at herself in the mirror and the corner of her mouth twitched again.
Grandma is still the same grandma, her hair-tying skills are exactly the same as in her previous life.
