Sister-in-law from a poor family

Chapter 23 Why listen to her?

Mrs. Fu Chen is really skillful. After a while, she boiled the soy milk and filtered out the dregs. The next step was to order tofu.

Qin Mianmian took out a few bowls of soy milk before she cooked the brine, and then mixed the hot noodles with chopped wild vegetables and baked them into vegetable pancakes.

Maybe it's because the pancakes are fried with meat oil from badger pigs, so the pancakes have a particularly strong aroma.

Fangfang just took a bite and all kinds of praises came out of her mouth.

"It's delicious. Is there really wild vegetables in sister's pancake? Why is it different from what I've eaten before?"

"How can it be so delicious? Xiao Huzi also said that his food is delicious. I don't believe that the food his mother cooks is better than this."

"This wild vegetable is actually fragrant. Why didn't I think wild vegetables were so delicious before?"

As she ate, she praised that the little person actually ate two cakes in one go and drank a bowl of soy milk.

"This soy milk is delicious, it smells like peanuts."

Fu Chen listened to her words and took a sip of soy milk.

After tasting it, a pair of dull eyes suddenly lit up.

"This berry with ground peanuts is completely different. It smells like peanuts and is very fragrant."

Qin Mianmian hummed: "It would be great if this soy milk had sugar. Putting some sugar in it will make the taste even better."

It's still summer. If I could drink such a bowl of hot soy milk in the winter morning, I don't know how comfortable it would be.

"Will the tofu also have this peanut flavor later? If so, it will be a little different from the tofu in the town." Fu Chen added.

After saying this, she brought a bowl of soy milk, an egg and two pancakes to send to Fu Tian in the room.

Qin Mianmian looked at the egg in her hand and frowned slightly.

"Mom, didn't you eat these eggs yesterday?" She didn't see Fu Chen's boiled eggs in the morning. These eggs were probably brought back by Fangfang yesterday.

Mrs. Fu Chen twitched her lips: "I don't like eggs."

Qin Mianmian:
"On such a hot day, the eggs will go rancid if left out all night."

"Will you?" Fu Chen paused, a little hesitant.

Hard-boiled eggs were rarely cooked at home, and she had never tried leaving hard-boiled eggs overnight.

"If you don't believe me, peel it off and try. It must be rancid. Dad is not in good health to begin with. If you feed him rancid food, aren't you afraid that he will have diarrhea?" Qin Mianmian thought for a moment and said directly.

If she didn't speak more seriously, I'm afraid that Mrs. Fu Chen, who felt sorry for the man, would really give the egg to Fu Tian.

Fu Tian was in poor health and had a broken leg. You could tell how sensitive he was from the fact that he didn't like to leave the house.

If he really ate rotten eggs, he would probably not say anything about it, and he might even feel that Mrs. Fu Chen, who originally cared for him, began to dislike him.

Mrs. Fu Chen also listened to her advice and peeled the egg open after listening to her words. Sure enough, a rancid smell came out of the egg shell as soon as she peeled it off.

Pay Chen:
"I didn't know the eggs would go rancid so easily." She regretted it.

If I had known this, I should have given this egg to Fu Tian yesterday.

"Mom, sometimes it's not a good thing to be reluctant to part with it. You see, if you eat these eggs, you can still replenish them. If they go rancid now, you have to throw them away."

Qin Mianmian took the rotten eggs from her hand and threw them out through the window.

Pay Chen:
She also prepared something to eat, which was an egg.

Seeing the distressed look on her face, Qin Mianmian knew what she was thinking.

"Don't think about eating mom. If you have a bad stomach, you will have to miss work. If it's serious, you may have to spend money to see a doctor." She took a sip of soy milk and told Mrs. Fu Chen's next actions in one sentence interrupt.After giving her a deep look, Fu Chen sighed and did not pick up the egg.

After she left, Qin Mianmian looked at Fangfang: "Did you eat the egg yesterday? If not, you can't eat it."

Fangfang blinked and smiled slyly.

"Yesterday when my brother was chopping firewood and washing up, I gave him the eggs. He ate them, but my eggs were not rancid."

After saying that, he raised his eyebrows proudly, as if he was waiting for Qin Mianmian's praise.

"Well, don't you like eggs too?" Qin Mianmian was a little confused.

"I like it, but there were so many delicious things yesterday that I couldn't fit them in my stomach." Fangfang had a sad face and was very worried.

"Besides, I thought if I gave my egg to my brother, my mother would eat the egg, but I didn't expect"

"I didn't expect her to put the eggs, right? You guys." Qin Mianmian smiled bitterly and shook her head, feeling even more sorry for this sensible little girl.

Beside her, Fu Jingbo, who had been eating pancakes and drinking soy milk with his head down, raised his head and looked at her and then at Fangfang, not knowing what he was thinking.

When Mrs. Fu Chen came out again, everyone had almost eaten.

The two pancakes on the plate were reserved for her. Qin Mianmian pinched the head and weighed the noodles. There were exactly two pancakes per person.

Fangfang was so full last night that she only ate one and a half sheets, and gave the rest to Fu Jingbo.

Fu Chen looked at the two cakes and hesitated for a moment, then took another one and prepared it for her son.

"Mom, you will have to carry tofu to sell in the town alone later. You won't be able to walk without eating." Qin Mianmian reminded her at the right time and said with a smile.

As soon as she finished speaking, Fu Jingbo got off the table and left without looking back.

Mrs. Fu Chen shouted, but the man didn't seem to hear him.

Qin Mianmian was surprised, why did this person never seem to respond to Fu Chen, but he would respond to herself.

"He's gone. Mom, please remember to eat the pancake. The sun will come out soon. It's a hot day. If you don't finish it at noon, the pancake will definitely be sour."

Qin Mianmian also put down her chopsticks, took a hemp rope nearby and quickly caught up with Fu Jingbo.

There was a question in her mind that she wanted to confirm. It happened that this man was going to the mountain, and she also went to the mountain to see if the nooses had caught anything new.

The two of them walked in tandem, which was fine at first, but as they walked, Fu Jingbo stopped.

He held the hatchet in his hand and turned around suddenly. The rope dangling from Qin Mianmian's hand stopped in mid-air and fell vertically.

His clear eyes were suddenly alert, then he dropped the hatchet, held his head, and squatted next to a bush with an expressionless expression.

Qin Mianmian:
"Are you afraid that I'll hit you?" she asked a little doubtfully.

Fu Jingbo raised his unshaven face, which was still expressionless, but there was a little grievance in his clear eyes.

Come on, it's true. The reason why this man didn't respond to others but only to her was because she had beaten him.

On the day he traveled back in time, he knocked the opponent unconscious and escaped, causing a psychological shadow on the opponent.

Sighing, she put down her hands and went to pull him up.

"I won't hit you, don't be afraid."

Fu Jingbo's eyes were still wary, but he still stood up obediently.

"Your mother never beat you, right?" Qin Mianmian asked again.
