Chapter 17 has a strange name.
By the time Mu Dasheng realized what was happening and tried to stop her, Ning Bao had already poured the scrambled eggs into Mu Dasheng's bowl.
Mu Dasheng nearly knocked over the bowl because he dodged it, but luckily Ningbao reacted quickly and used her chubby little hand to steady it. She looked at Mu Dasheng with a serious expression on her face.
"Grandpa, is the bowl too heavy for you to lift?"
How about Ningbao feeds you? Ningbao can carry it.
My master said that I could hold a spoon and drink porridge by myself when I was six months old, and I could eat independently when I was one year old. He said that I couldn't be distracted while eating, that eating was the most important thing...
Mu Dasheng looked at Ningbao, who kept talking, and felt a headache coming on. Sigh! He's really getting old and useless. He used to be able to fight wolves and tigers, but now in his granddaughter's eyes, he can't even lift a bowl.
Mu Dasheng lowered his eyes in frustration.
“Ningbao, Grandpa can lift the bowl, so Grandpa can eat by himself.”
These eggs are for Ningbao. Grandpa doesn't like eggs, but Ningbao will grow taller if he eats them.
Ningbao's face was full of surprise.
"Grandpa, does eating eggs really make you grow taller?"
Mu Dasheng nodded quickly.
"Yes, yes, eating eggs can help you grow taller."
Ning Bao looked at the eggs in the bowl with a smile on her face and a look of great pleasure.
"So eating eggs can make you grow taller, then I'll earn more money and buy more eggs so we can all grow taller."
Ning Bao then looked at Mu Dasheng with a serious expression.
"Grandpa, we should share happiness and hardship. We only have one egg today, so let's share it."
When Ningbao earns money in the future, she'll buy lots and lots of eggs for her grandparents, parents, uncles, aunts, and brothers, and we'll eat eggs every day, at every meal..."
As Ningbao spoke, he walked over to Li Guizhi and put some eggs into her bowl. Hearing Ningbao's words and seeing what Ningbao did, Li Guizhi felt a warmth in her heart. This child is so sensible.
Li Guizhi blinked, her eyes glistening, then looked up at everyone.
“Since Ningbao is so kind, everyone should eat. Cheng’an, Chengju, Chengle, Chengye, Sijian, and Sikang, you must remember Ningbao’s words. No matter what happens in the future, you brothers must help each other, work together, and take good care of Ningbao.”
"Okay, Grandma!" the brothers replied in unison.
Although each of the 13 members of the family only received a tiny bit of the scrambled eggs from a single boiled egg, they were very satisfied with their meal.
"You brat, are you a reincarnated starving ghost? You've only had a couple of sips of porridge, but you still want to eat cornbread? This cornbread belongs to your brother. If you steal any more, I'll break your legs!"
Ning Bao had just finished the last mouthful of porridge when he heard Zhao Juhua's sharp and sarcastic voice.
Although Ningbao isn't a child who likes to watch the excitement, he can ignore other people's drama, but he absolutely has to watch Zhao Juhua's drama.
On her first day in Shanglin Village, she knew that she and Zhao Juhua, grandmother and granddaughter, were incompatible according to their birth charts.
After Ningbao finished the last mouthful of porridge, she took out a handkerchief to wipe her mouth clean, then sneakily ran up to Mu Chengye and whispered...
"Fourth Brother, Zhao Juhua seems to be arguing. Let's go take a look."
Mu Chengye glanced in the direction of Zhao Juhua's family, his face full of disinterest. He had seen this kind of scene many times and there was nothing to see. He could tell from the sound that the eldest grandmother was scolding her sisters Zhao Di, Pan Di, and La Di again. Such scolding could be heard from Mu Chengrong's family at almost every meal.
He looked at his older brother pleadingly. Receiving his younger brother's look, Mu Cheng'an chuckled and walked to Ning Bao's side, speaking softly.
"Ningbao, be good, eat your meal and rest for a while, we'll be on our way soon."
Ningbao wanted to shake her head and say no, but when she saw her handsome older brother and heard his gentle voice, she couldn't utter a single word.
Sigh! It's just that she likes good-looking people. Her older brother is so handsome, she can't help but want to listen to him.
So, even though Zhao Juhua's side was making a lot of noise, Ning Bao still resisted the urge to go and watch the commotion. But if she didn't go, she could at least listen.
"You brat, hurry up and pack your things! Are you dead?"
"Fourth Brother, who is this 'dead girl' that Madam is talking about?"
"They should be Mu Chengrong's sisters."
"Wang, you wretched woman, come and help your old mother up! How could I have ever fallen for you? You've given birth to a bunch of good-for-nothings with no talent whatsoever. If it weren't for the fact that you gave me my grandson, I would have had Youcai divorce you long ago."
"Fourth Brother, who is that damned woman?"
Mu Chengye said softly, "Mu Chengrong's biological mother."
Ningbao frowned and muttered something under her breath.
"Their family is so strange. Couldn't they come up with a nicer name? This name is just so unlucky."
Hearing Ning Bao's words, Mu Chengye was about to explain to her when Mu Cheng'an glared at him. Seeing his older brother's gaze, Mu Chengye closed his mouth again.
