Chapter 142 Egg Custard
Gu Yunyi and Fang Ziheng read for a while, and when it was light, Xu Qingmeng got up.
When Gu Yunyi saw Xu Qingmeng got up, he stood up and followed her to the kitchen to help.
Fang Ziheng then carried little Yuanbao in his arms and went in to find Hui Niang.
In the kitchen.
"Is there anything you want to eat in the morning?" Xu Qingmeng turned her head and glanced at Gu Yunyi.
"Pumpkin porridge, millet porridge, rice soup, or noodles?"
"Do you have mung beans? Otherwise, cook some mung bean soup. You can have a bowl of it when it's hot in the morning. It will be very refreshing. You can also drink some then, but not too much." Gu Yunyi said.
"Okay, but you can only drink it in the next few days. After a while, you can't drink cold drinks. If you get a stomachache, it will be bad. It can't affect the exam."
Xu Qingmeng agreed to his request, scooped out half a bowl of mung beans and said.
"Yeah, I know. I was thinking that you're pregnant and afraid of the heat. You can drink some then."
He said with a smile, then squatted down and took out two more cucumbers: "Make a cucumber salad. There are also steamed buns left over from last night. Heat up a few and breakfast is ready."
Xu Qingmeng nodded, then quickly peeled the cucumber. The knife flew in his hand very quickly, and soon the cucumber was cut.
Gu Yunyi had already lit a bunch of firewood and started to make a fire.
There is mung bean soup under the big pot, and a steamer on top, with steamed buns in the steamer.
Xu Qingxing dreamed that Gu Yunyi still had to study and the baby in her belly also needed nutrition, so she cracked four more eggs.
After the egg liquid was stirred, it was filtered again with gauze and placed in two bowls respectively.
Then I took a lid and put it on top, put it in the steamer, covered the pot, and then all I had to do was wait quietly.
"Why did you make four bowls?" Gu Yunyi asked in confusion upon seeing this.
"And one bowl for Xiao Yuanbao."
Four bowls of egg custard, one each for Gu Yunyi, Zhou Yuanjia and her. Zhou Yuanjia was a grown man who never went into the kitchen, and if she expected him to cook, he would probably starve to death.
Before coming, Aunt Zhou specifically said that if they could live together, she would ask Xu Qingmeng and the others to take care of them.
The money for the meal was also given to Xu Qingmeng. It was just a matter of adding an extra set of bowls and chopsticks during the meal, not ordering any additional dishes, so Xu Qingmeng agreed.
Besides, Zhou Yuanjia’s father is Xun Ge’er’s master.
There was only another bowl because the little Yuanbao was really cute and Xu Qingmeng liked it very much. It was nothing more than adding an extra egg.
Just as Xu Qingmeng finished mixing the cucumbers, she saw Hui Niang smiling with a look of joy on her face.
"Good morning, Madam Gu."
"Good morning!"
"Uh-huh, do you still want to cook?"
"No, I've already prepared it, sister-in-law, you can use it. Oh, by the way, I steamed an egg custard for Xiao Yuanbao."
Xu Qingmeng handed the mixed cucumber to Gu Yunyi, and opened the big pot. The steamed buns and egg custard inside were ready.
"That's so sorry." Hui Niang said embarrassedly.
"Children!"
Gu Yunyi shouted in the yard while holding some cold cucumbers. Zhou Yuanjia had already gotten up by then.
I was reading a book in the room at that time, and came out immediately after hearing the sound.
The food in the steamer had been taken out and placed in a basket by Xu Qingmeng.
The mung bean soup had already been served in the soup bowl and placed aside.
Zhou Yuanjia was carrying the soup basin. After Gu Yunyi called out to Zhou Yuanjia, he came in and took out the basket.
Xu Qingmeng followed behind and took out a few small bowls.
Fang Ziheng also knew that Gu Yunyi and the others were going to have breakfast, so he greeted them and was about to come out of the main room carrying Xiao Yuanbao.
"Brother Fang, I made some steamed egg custard for Yuanbao. You hold him and feed him."
"That's so bad."
When Xu Qingmeng was about to say something, she heard Xiao Yuanbao opened his mouth wide and called out, "Aunt...Aunt..."
Xu Qingmeng looked at him: "Hey, Yuanbao, are you calling me?"
Fang Ziheng was also very surprised, but he quickly rubbed his head and said, "This little thing is quite clever. He heard that you made him egg custard. It is usually harder than climbing to the sky to get him to open his mouth, but now he can call me aunt."
The little guy seemed unhappy about having his father rub his head. He waved his chubby little arms, trying to wave his father's arms away.
The little chubby face was still puffy, as if he was a little devil.
Although Yuanbao rarely speaks on weekdays, he is a four-year-old boy after all, and he still has some intelligence.
"Come in with Yuanbao and eat." Then he walked into the house and said with a smile: "Yuanbao is so cute."
Zhou Yuanjia had already started eating. With one bite, one-third of the bun was gone. He said casually, "Sister-in-law, you should be pregnant in a few months. By then, you can let Yun Sheng and Yun Mo take care of you. How great!"
"Baby, brother...sister..." Yuanbao suddenly said this again.
Everyone looked confused, but only Xu Qingmeng understood, because she knew that she was pregnant with twins.
Fang Ziheng also understood and said with a smile: "Yuanbao means that Madam Gu is pregnant with both a younger sister and a younger brother."
Gu Yunyi and Zhou Yuanjia couldn't help laughing after hearing Fang Ziheng's explanation.
Xu Qingmeng felt that Yuanbao was a very interesting and clever child. She touched her belly subconsciously with loving eyes.
Gu Yunyi looked up at Xu Qingmeng. In fact, he had heard a saying that what children said was usually very accurate. It seemed that it was a good decision to bring her to see the old Chinese doctor this time.
Xu Qingmeng looked at Zhou Yuanjia who was doing something and said, "Mr. Zhou, you are older than Yun Yi. When are you going to get married?"
Zhou Yuanjia suddenly felt that the steamed bun in his hand no longer smelled fragrant. Then he seemed to have thought of something and smiled foolishly again.
Xu Qingmeng and Gu Yunyi looked at each other, as if they had seen something, and asked, "Whose girl has our Mr. Zhou fallen in love with? He is smiling so passionately."
"Ahem, no, no, let's eat quickly." Zhou Yuanjia's face suddenly turned red and he said shyly.
"Delicious..." Yuanbao said vaguely. Everyone was instantly attracted by Yuanbao and no longer paid attention to Zhou Yuanjia. Zhou Yuanjia instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
Yuanbao was sitting on Fang Ziheng's lap at this time, eating the delicious egg custard spoonfully, with his mouth full of it. He looked so cute.
Fang Ziheng carefully wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "Yuanbao, eat slowly."
