Some time ago, my son even went to build a dike in order to earn work points.
If a family has some financial resources, who would want their children to build a dike? That lake area is where schistosomiasis is prevalent.
What if...
Huang Qiuju didn't dare to think further. She only knew that she regretted it so much that her intestines were turning green with regret.
What kind of wife should I marry for my son?
If she had known this would happen, she would rather her son remain single for the rest of his life!
Cai Gangqiang also felt bitter.
But there is no other way. Now that it has come to this, I have to grit my teeth and move on.
"Mom, think about Dachou and Erchou. Don't you always say that our family is small? Now we have two grandchildren? I... I'll talk to Ailan again. The most important thing for us now is how to arrange food for the two children. Are there any eggs left? I'll light the fire and stew two eggs for the children?" Cai Gangqiang asked.
When the topic turned to the two grandsons, Huang Qiuju was forced to swallow back what she wanted to say.
Forget it, just do it for your grandchildren to see.
As for Li Ailan, she just pretended that she didn't exist.
What the hell is this? This is the descendant of the Li family, a person who harms people!
"Gone are the two eggs. I had to persuade Lao Wang's wife to borrow them. Gangqiang, you know that our family has a bad reputation in the production team now. No one is willing to lend us things." Huang Qiuju looked melancholy.
Right now, the Cai family has to think twice before borrowing even a match, let alone an egg.
After all, I have borrowed it so many times.
You always borrow money and never pay it back, so people are afraid of them.
"Then...what about my second uncle?" Cai Gangqiang asked with some difficulty.
"You know your second uncle, even if he's willing, it doesn't matter. He still needs your second aunt's consent. How many fights have they had for us?"
Even Huang Qiuju felt that life was not easy for Uncle Cai Gangqiang, and one can imagine the hardships involved.
Cai Gangqiang could only sigh.
These days are really difficult.
It was not yet the day for distributing food, and life at home was very tight.
I couldn't even get an egg out.
They were fine, as they would just go hungry for a meal, but what about the children?
Looking at his son who had just cried and whose tears were still there, Cai Gangqiang's heart ached.
"I'll borrow it. I'll borrow it from your grandma." Cai Gangqiang's father said.
"But can grandma lend it to us?" Cai Gangqiang hesitated.
Cai Gangqiang's family has a good relationship with Cai's second uncle.
But he and Old Lady Cai are completely incompatible.
Huang Qiuju was not someone to be trifled with, and she had given birth to seven girls in a row. Old Mrs. Cai wished she could skin Huang Qiuju alive.
Huang Qiuju was not to be outdone. She cursed from one end of the village to the other, and cursed Old Mrs. Cai and her three generations of ancestors.
Old Mrs. Cai wished she could eat Huang Qiuju's flesh and drink her blood.
It’s just because the two people have had little interaction over the years, so there haven’t been too many troubles. At most, when the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law meet, they will just curse at each other.
Under this circumstance, the possibility of Cai Gangqiang's father being able to borrow eggs is zero.
But no matter how difficult it is, we have to try. We can't let the child starve to death.
"I'll give it a try! If it doesn't work, I'll kneel down until they lend it to me." said Cai Gangqiang's father.
After saying that, he went out.
Huang Qiuju could only accept her fate.
She went to the vegetable garden again and picked some vegetables. She wanted to cook them until they were soft and make vegetable puree for the children. She also needed to cook some rice porridge.
But you have to wait for the eggs to arrive and cook them together when steaming them.
