On the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, at four o'clock in the morning, the light in Su Qinghu's bedroom came on.
He quickly put on his clothes and knocked on the door of Dadan and Erdan's bedroom.
"Hurry up! We're going to be late for school!"
Dadan and Erdan were awakened by the knock on the door, and after hearing Su Qinghu's words, they started putting on their clothes before they were fully awake.
While putting on the condom, Dadan reacted first and stopped getting out of bed.
No, it's winter vacation now, why do we have to go to school? The teacher didn't tell us...
Or, after he and his brother fell asleep yesterday, the teacher called home or came to inform them?
However, I never had to go back to school suddenly during the winter vacation.
Erdan got out of bed in a hurry and started putting on his shoes. Before he even tied his shoelaces, he kicked and clattered open the bedroom door.
Erdan: "Mom, I don't want breakfast!"
Having said that, he rushed out.
Su Qinghu was quick-witted and quick-handed. He grabbed the back of his collar and pulled him back.
She: “Wait.”
As he was speaking, Dadan came out after putting on his shoes, his eyes full of confusion.
He: "Are you going to pick up my dad?"
It is impossible that he was called up because of going to school, so there must be only one reason, which is to pick someone up.
Su Qinghu: "Let's talk about it later. Let your brother put on his shoes first."
Hearing this, Erdan quickly squatted down to tie his shoelaces. After tying his shoelaces and standing up, he suddenly felt a little confused. "Mom, it's still dark? Did we sleep too deeply and sleep through the day, turning it straight into night?"
Su Qinghu smiled mysteriously, "Don't ask yet, you two go wash up first, I'll tell you after you're done."
Although Dadan and Erdan were confused, they still obediently went to brush their teeth and wash their faces.
Seeing that they went over obediently, Su Qinghu went to the kitchen first, turned on the fire, boiled some hot water, then washed a piece of ginger, quickly cut it into shreds, and threw it into the pot.
When the water starts to boil, use a colander to scoop out the shredded ginger and quickly beat a few eggs into it.
When the poached egg slowly floated up, I took the ceramic spoon for soup and scooped a few spoonfuls of brown sugar into it.
Suddenly, the sweet aroma of brown sugar and the spicy taste of shredded ginger blended together and began to fill the kitchen.
Erdan picked up some face cream and applied it on his face, his feet involuntarily moving towards the kitchen.
Dadan no longer had any thoughts of resisting the cream. He applied the cream, which seemed too delicate to him, with an expressionless face, and followed her to the kitchen.
Erdan smelled the scent and smelled ginger before he even stepped into the kitchen.
He: "Mom? What are you doing? I smell a strong smell of ginger!"
As he spoke, he walked into the kitchen and saw the plump white poached eggs rolling in the sugar water.
After a moment of surprise, he felt a little nervous. "Mom, did you put ginger in the poached eggs this time?"
He didn't see the ginger.
Su Qinghu: "I added shredded ginger, but I also added more sugar."
She smiled at him and said, "Do you want to eat? If you don't want to eat, you can eat the rest when we come back."
Erdan: "Everything tastes best when fresh. It loses its flavor after being stored for a long time. Since you have already taken my share, I must eat it. I can't let your kindness go to waste."
"Oh!" Su Qinghu turned off the fire. "Since you said you can't waste my kindness, then tell me how many poached eggs you want to eat?"
Erdan: “…Five.”
In fact, he prefers sweet syrup, but this time there is ginger in the syrup, so he should drink less water and eat more eggs.
These eggs are collected from the countryside. They are not too big, but they taste good.
If there are five, he should be able to finish them.
Su Qinghu paused holding the spoon, and replied, "...No."
It is early morning now, even if it is after four o'clock, it is still early morning.
You're up so early, and you still have such a good appetite? Can you really eat it?
But regardless of whether he could eat it or not, he couldn't have five. After all, she only made 10 poached eggs.
The original plan was that each of the two children would have four, and she would eat two.
"You can only eat four, no more." Su Qinghu was not willing to give him his own. "If you are still hungry after eating, then... just bear with it."
He can't drink too much sugar water. What if he needs to go to the toilet outside later? Where can she find a toilet for him?
Just find a place to pee?
No, she absolutely won't allow such behavior!
Erdan: "Four is fine. Once we get outside, someone will be selling breakfast in a few hours. Then I'll buy you all fried dough sticks."
Su Qinghu nodded, "Okay."
As she spoke, she quickly served poached eggs in three bowls.
Erdan looked at the bowl, then looked at her, "Mom, I'll give you one from my bowl."
Then he looked at Dadan standing aside and said, "Brother, can you give Mom one of yours too?"
Big Egg: "Four are too many. I just woke up, so I can't finish them."
Su Qinghu's mouth twitched, "You are already a big kid, do you think I don't know how much you eat?"
Big Egg: “…”
"Alright, alright, don't be too touched. I ate two not because of you, but because I was doing what I could. I really don't have much appetite at this time, so two is enough." Su Qinghu pointed at the bowl, "Bring it to the table."
Erdan: "Really? Mom, you have a big appetite, don't you? Is it really not because I just said I wanted five poached eggs that you changed the size of your portion?"
Erdan really felt a little guilty.
Su Qinghu opened her mouth. Really, at this point, she not only didn't want to eat more, but also didn't want to talk more.
