With the help of Mr. and Mrs. Shen, my uncle and Aunt Wang's families lived one of the best lives in their village, so Wang Zhengkun dared to buy so many preserved eggs in one go.
Chen Zhen naturally had no objection.
The other cousins at the table also wanted to buy some to take back, but Chen Zhen only made a total of 400 preserved eggs this time. Almost 50 of them were used for the meal, plus the 100 sold to Wang Zhengkun, there were only about 200 left. If they bought all of them, there would not be enough.
So Chen Zhen agreed to give them 6 preserved eggs each when they returned, and they could come back to buy the next batch after he made them.
Seeing Chen Zhen say this, everyone naturally stopped forcing him. They just told them to let them know when it was done and they would come to buy it.

These plates would be taken back directly by Chen's mother later to save them from having to make another trip.

After that came Village Chief Wu, and my grandparents. Old Man Shen and Uncle Shen stayed a little longer because they lived nearby.
