The setting sun was cut in half by the horizon. Si Ruoyun looked at the red sun in the distance and couldn't help swallowing.
This seems to be the fried egg that Rong Mama asked for from the kitchen a few days ago!
It is red and greasy, very cute and delicious.
Si Ruoyun tried hard to swallow her saliva, hoping that her second uncle's sister would have another birthday, so that she could eat delicious fried eggs again!
"Second Miss, Second Miss."
Rong Mama's voice came from far away, and Si Ruoyun quickly stood up from the small stool and ran back with her short legs.
She is three and a half years old this year. She has been dependent on Rong Mama since she can remember. However, Rong Mama is old and her eyesight is not good, so she can never find her.
Just like now, Aunt Rong was preaching to that tree stump.
"My dear Second Miss, please don't run around. It's very dangerous in the Si Mansion right now. I'm afraid that person will regard you as a thorn in his side. Who knows what will happen if you die of illness one day?"
Madam Rong kept talking. Si Ruoyun didn't understand what she said, but she knew that everyone outside was very bad.
The last time she sneaked out, the people outside stepped on her beans and crushed them, saying that the beans she ate were for pigs.
Si Ruoyun had never seen a pig, but she was not a pig!
"Mammy, I'm here!"
The little girl ran to Rong Mama and stretched out her hand to her.
Rong Mama was old and her eyesight was not good. Everything she saw was blurry. She stretched out a hand to hold Si Ruoyun's hand.
The little girl watched Rong Mama's hand pass straight past her arm, and couldn't help but sigh like a little adult, and grabbed Rong Mama's hand with her little hand.
"Mammy, I dug out a lot of beans today. Let's go back and eat roasted beans!"
"Okay, whatever the Second Miss says is fine." Rong Mama said with a smile, and her hand, like dry tree bark, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes without leaving a trace.
Poor second daughter!
The second young lady should have been living a life of luxury like the other legitimate young ladies. If the master and his wife had not disappeared on the battlefield, how could the second young lady have ended up like this?
Her second daughter is the youngest daughter of the Si family and should be the treasure that is held in the palm of her hand!
Now I can only eat potatoes every day!
It's all because of her incompetence!
Si Ruoyun was small, and unless she looked up, she couldn't see Rong Mama secretly wiping her tears. She was very happy, as she had been eating beans since she could remember, and Si Ruoyun was used to eating beans.
Baked potatoes, steamed potatoes, boiled potatoes, beans are delicious no matter how you eat them!
Fortunately, they have a small potato garden and a cherry tree in their yard, otherwise Si Ruoyun would not have lived to this age.
Si Ruoyun and Rong Mama lived in a small courtyard with three rooms in total, a woodshed and two bedrooms. Because Si Ruoyun was still young, Rong Mama didn't dare to miss her and would hug Si Ruoyun to sleep every day.
"Madame Rong, please sit still and be good. The beans will be ready soon."
The little girl reached out and patted Rong Mama's hand, asked Rong Mama to sit on a small stool, and then she squatted beside the stove built in the yard.
This stove was built by Rong Mama in her early years when she could still see. It is called a stove, but it is actually just an iron pot placed on a few bricks.
"Okay, okay."
Madam Rong responded repeatedly, and only vaguely saw Si Ruoyun squatting down.
Si Ruoyun first used an iron skewer to thread the potatoes, then held the skewer with her little hand, and finally plopped it.
A string of flames shot out of Si Ruoyun's mouth and roasted the potatoes in an instant.
The little girl looked at the roasted potatoes in front of her with satisfaction. She gave the big one to Rong Mama and kept the small one for herself. She was small and could not eat so much!
Just as she ate the potatoes, Rong Mama wanted to cry again. She was old and useless, and she still needed the second young lady to take care of her!
Si Ruoyun took the roasted potatoes, not afraid of the heat, sat on a small chair beside her, swinging her legs and taking small bites of the potatoes.
Doudou is delicious no matter how you cook it!
But she still prefers fried eggs.
Si Ruoyun sighed like a little adult. Why hasn’t she grown up yet? When she grows up, she can eat fried eggs every day!
Aunt Rong didn't know what Si Ruoyun was thinking, otherwise she would probably cry again if she knew.
The little girl's potatoes were small, so she ate them all quickly. She jumped off the stool and patted Rong Mama's knee.
"Mammy, be good. I'll go get the salt and white oil."
When mentioning Baiyouyou, Si Ruoyun couldn't help swallowing her saliva again.
The white oil mixed with bean paste is so delicious!
Although the Si family did not attach much importance to this outdated second young lady, they would not really let Si Ruoyun starve to death.
Every seven days, someone would come to bring Si Ruoyun some things that would allow her to barely survive.
But it was only Si Ruoyun's.
In the early years, it was rice porridge, milk soup and so on. Later, when Si Ruoyun grew up, it became salt and lard. A small handful of seeds would be sent every month, but whether they could be grown was up to fate.
A few pieces of cloth would be delivered about once a year, but Rong Mama was too old to make ready-made clothes, so she could only cut and sew some randomly and then wrap Si Ruoyun in it.
After saying that, the little girl went to the place where she collected salt every seven days.
There had been a man who looked like a servant there, peeking around. When he saw Si Ruoyun coming, a smile immediately broke out on his face.
"Second Miss, you are finally here!"
Although Si Ruoyun has not been able to keep up with her food intake, the little girl is not thin at all. Instead, she looks like a round ball, delicate and cute.
The servants of the Si Mansion would not bother such a three-year-old child.
"Brother Erniu, it's you today."
Si Ruoyun looked up at the servant, took out a still warm potato from the small bag she carried with her, and stuffed it into Erniu's arms.
"Thank you, Brother Erniu, for giving me salt and oil."
The little girl spoke in a baby voice. Erniu looked at Si Ruoyun and his heart melted instantly. He couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Why is the second young lady’s life so miserable!
"Second Miss, what do you think this is?"
Erniu took the small potato and reached out to open the basket he was carrying. In addition to salt and lard, he saw a little hen inside!
Si Ruoyun had never seen a hen before, so she stretched her neck and looked at the hen curiously.
"What is this?"
"Second Miss, this is a hen, a chicken that lays eggs. You can eat the eggs after it lays them."
Erniu looked at the hen in the basket with envy. This was a hen that was eliminated from the kitchen and was intercepted by him. This was no ordinary chicken!
This is the chicken for the legitimate daughters and sons!
This kind of chicken must be fed with spiritual rice, right?
