Crossing the road to riches

Chapter 8
The family is filial, and the old lady is not allowed to work for too long. As soon as the sun comes out, she uses cooking as an excuse to let the old lady go back to cook.

The old lady had an egg in her bosom, and her heart was warm. It was stuffed secretly by Hao Bao'er when she woke up in the middle of the night last night.

"Grandma, this is what my elder sister secretly kept for you to eat, and I will let you eat eggs every day in the future."

The old lady naturally refused to ask for it, but she couldn't resist, so she accepted it.

It's not in vain to hurt Holly.

Thinking about it, the eldest sister is not as filial as Bao'er, and she looks cold at herself from time to time, thinking about it makes her sick.

But as an old guy who doesn't work, it's a pity to eat it, and he covered it again. Besides Haobaoer, the first thing in our family is the pillar of such precious things.

When Wen Fugui came back to go to the toilet, he quietly pulled the egg aside, and gave the egg to Haobao's mother: "If you have money, give it to Haobaoer, Haobaoer is filial, and I gave it to me. I ate it." It's also a waste, you make up for it."

The two declined again, but in the end they didn't hold back their ancestors.

It's just that the little ones in the family don't have to eat, so there's no reason for the head of the family to steal food. He looked at Mrs. Zhao who was busy working under the sun, thought about how anxious he was for himself yesterday, and covered his chest with the egg .

When I was going to work, I called Mrs. Zhao aside and stuffed it into Mrs. Zhao's hand: "Take Jinmei and eat it quietly, don't let the grandma see it. This is a fortune for Bao'er. Haobao is filial to her nanny, and her nanny loves me, I can't smell the smell of eggs, so it's cheap for you two."

Although Mrs. Zhao got the egg, she was not happy in her heart. She owed herself to take out the money from her private house yesterday and gave it to Haobaoer. The first thing Haobao did was to think of her milk, not her as a father. Fortunately, she only took it Half of it came out, and it really made sense to put the eggs in a few more baskets as my mother's family said.

Seeing Youcai's hard work, and thinking that Bao'er didn't respect herself, thinking that she should love her eldest daughter, she felt a little guilty, and didn't tell Jinmei about it.

A man naturally doesn't need to eat eggs. The women at home are doing all the hard work, and it's not his turn.

Then he quietly called Youcai over and gave the egg to Youcai, and the egg returned to Youcai's hand.

Jinmei usually doesn't talk much, but it doesn't mean he is blind and stupid. He is not a fool when he has a ball in his chest and a ball in that person's chest.

Everyone has a share, but I am an outsider, and I deserve that I didn't get married. I have become a dislike at home and outsiders, and I don't entertain them. I feel very uncomfortable.

Why can't I get married? It's not because of my younger sister. When I was a child, my younger sister overturned the boiling water, and the water hit my face. My younger sister was also burned, with elbows and face all over. The family's money is only enough The younger sister bought medicine and applied ointment, and she was so disfigured. She still has burns on her face and cannot get married.

If it weren't for this, my life wouldn't be like this.

Wen Hao planned to go back after finishing the work in the town, and already had a plan in mind.

When I go to the village to collect tea, most people have a few tea trees in their homes, which are picked every year, and they are soaked when guests come to the house, and then check if there is wolfberry or something, and the milk tea cup is a problem.

What she thought was that people could drink tea while shopping in the market.

Bamboo tubes can be used for milk tea cups. Every family on the mountain has bamboo. Saw it and poke a hole to make it smoother, and make it thinner at the mouth.

The bamboo tube is so thick that it is not hot to hold.

I rushed back after all the hard work, and I didn’t meet any people in the village on the way back. At this point, I went back to eat in the sun.

The jerky was so warm that I didn't want to eat it alone.

Youcai took out the egg from the dining table: "Pick it apart, cut it into slices, let's eat together, let's all taste it, it's also a meat dish."

When the egg shells were opened, a strong smell came out. The eggs were already stinky after being left for so long in the hot weather. field.

Dad was reluctant: "It's stinky, but there are no worms. It's better to mend it. People's Chinese New Year's cured fish is full of maggots. After washing and steaming, it will go down in the stomach. Let's just eat it, otherwise it will be a pity."

No one objected to this. Food is not easy in the first place. There is only one potato in each person's bowl. How can I be willing to waste this egg.

After peeling the shells, the egg shells are not wasted, and the milk has to be ground into powder for drinking.

As soon as Wen Hao entered the house, he smelled a stench. He watched his father stroke an egg with a large kitchen knife. The egg was the source of the stench.

Hurry in and stop: "Father, what are you doing, don't eat it if it stinks, it will hurt your stomach if you eat it."

The family looked at Wen Hao in surprise, and Nai, as the largest investor, was the first to speak anxiously: "Didn't you go to the town? Why did you come back so soon?".

Wen Hao winked at grandma: "Grandma, I was hit by a pie."

Immediately afterwards, he said the rhetoric he had made up: "Today, a lord who heard that he came back from the county to visit his natal family passed by the town. His carriage was frightened. He was suddenly frightened and was about to run around. They caught that horse, and they rewarded me with a bracelet, and gave me a meal of dry food. I sold the bracelet for money and planned to do some business in the town."

Immediately afterwards, he took out the jerky that the milk gave him: "I ate the dry pancakes, but I kept the jerky secretly. I was thinking about coming back and cutting all the meat for the family to eat together. Don't ask for the rotten eggs, it's spoiled." If one of them gets sick, it will cost money to hire a doctor, how can our family afford the money?"

Hearing this statement, no one doubted it. Dad looked at the piece of meat and burst into tears: "That lord is really a good man."

However, the jerky is too hard to cut, and it took a long time to cook before it softened.

It was hard for her to convince everyone not to eat this rotten egg.

Wen Hao asked Wen Hao to take the milk away, and looked at the man who came back to me in the corner of the kitchen, Wen Hao knew what Milk meant.

He also told his family about his idea of ​​doing business and the need for bamboo tubes. Wen Fugui originally wanted the little girl to give the money to the family. I can go buy some food.

But Wen Hao's work was half done, she said it was useless, and Haoer's idea was not bad, and they thought the idea that the little girl read more was also reliable.

Wen Fugui said: "Leave the bamboo tube to your sister. I'll go to ask you about tea, fruit, goji berries, and eggs in the evening."

Wen Hao kept 300 Wen for himself, and gave the remaining [-] Wen to Mother: "Mother, I only have so much left in my hands now. Tea and fruit are the main ones. Fruits with juiciness, sour and sweet are all good. , don’t want anything that has no taste, very sour is fine.”
