Chapter 17 Eggs in Sugar Water
"Bring me three bowls." An Xiu'er greeted, Erya, who was a little closer, stood up, obediently took three bowls from the cupboard.

An Xiu'er filled three bowls of egg syrup, and there were two small eggs lying in each bowl. She brought two of the bowls to the table in the main room, and then she shouted to the big ya and the ya: "Eat."

The two little girls walked over quickly. When they saw the eggs in sugar water in the bowl, they held back for a while, but finally couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food, and picked up the spoon.

What the two little girls eat at home has always been neglected. Although there are chickens at home, the eggs are either sold or given to An Ronghe who is studying. An Xiu'er's light, because whenever An Xiu'er says she wants to eat eggs, Liang will always cook for her, and then she will always share some for them to try, and because of this, the two little girls like this aunt very much .

Scooping up the egg with a spoon, the two of them took a big bite, and the hot egg yolk flowed out from the middle. Their tongues hurt from the heat, but they still couldn't bear to spit it out. They just opened their mouths, and An Xiuer saw it and said, "Eat slowly." ,Not in a hurry."

The two still breathed with their mouths open, and waited for it to cool down before swallowing, saying: "The eggs made by my aunt are really delicious."

"I like to eat, so I will come here often in the future. I will also raise chickens. When the chickens lay eggs, I will keep the eggs for you." An Xiuer said with a smile.

The two became a little shy, took a sip of the sweet soup, and asked, "Auntie, don't you want to eat?"

"I keep some in the kitchen, you can eat." An Xiu'er looked at the two children who were engrossed in eating, with a tender look on their faces.

While eating, there was a sound outside the door, all three of them were startled, looked up, and saw Zhang Zhenan walking over, An Xiuer stretched out her hand to signal the two children to sit down, and she herself went up to meet them, saying: "Master, you Why did you come back so early today?"

"I cast an extra net today." Zhang Zhen'an didn't say much, just passed An Xiu'er, and strode towards the kitchen. He passed by the main room, where two children were holding spoons, so frightened that they didn't even dare to lift their heads.

Zhang Zhenan didn't stay long, he just dumped the fish into the fish tank, went out again without saying a word, and the two children dared to continue eating after he left.

The two children are very good, besides eating the eggs from the bowl, there is not even a drop of the sugar water left. An Xiuer waited for them to finish eating and put away the bowl before sitting down and said to them: "I think your uncle is not bad, right?" .”

"Yeah." The two children nodded numbly, which was pretty good, and they didn't make too much criticism when they saw their aunt giving them eggs.

"Well, you should have something else to do, right? Then go get busy first, and wait until it's getting late." There are pigs at home, and An Xiu'er knows that they have to hunt pigweed every day, so she doesn't keep them any longer, she just said: "Come on Come and play when you have time, anyway, it’s close.”

The two little girls looked at each other and nodded wildly again.

An Xiu'er smiled, helped them carry the basket, and passed the basket to them after they got out of the back door, and said: "I will go home tomorrow, tell grandma, I will go back later, let them do not worry."

"Understood." The two children nodded obediently again, An Xiu'er patted their heads, and watched them carrying baskets and passing through the grass again.

They continued to clear pigweed, while An Xiu'er continued to hoe the ground.

Her hands were burning hot, even the soft cloth on the mat was still a little useless. In the end, she was so busy until it was almost dark that she only cleared up the small piece of land, but An Xiu'er was not discouraged, she looked at this small corner, thinking What can be planted.

Well, Mr. Xiang likes to endure hardships. First plant some bitter gourds for him, and then some loofahs. These are all vines. Although the land is small, you can plant several plants, which is better than spending money to buy them.It seems that my harvest today is not bad. I hoe a little every day, and the land will grow more and more.

After washing his hands and cooking, what he ate was the leftovers from noon. Although it was not much, it was barely enough. Anyway, the big deal would be to eat less, so he wouldn't be hungry.

Decided to be diligent and frugal from today onwards, so she cooked a simple meal for the evening. She heated up the rice soup, and then fried the rice with eggs.

She calculated the time just right, when the meal was ready, Zhang Zhenan came back, and seeing him pour the fish into the fish tank, she went to fetch water for him to wash his hands and face.

When handing him the handkerchief, Zhang Zhen'an accidentally noticed that her palm was red, and grabbed her wrist. An Xiu'er struggled a few times, but she didn't pull it out. She didn't want him to see the blisters on her palm, so she fisted her hand.

Zhang Zhenan exerted a little force on her hand, and under the pain, her palm spread out. Zhang Zhenan pinched a few of her fingertips, and seeing that the originally white and tender palm was already flushed, he asked: "You How did you get that palm?"

His voice was a little cold, An Xiuer glanced at him timidly, seeing his deep and bright eyes, she dodged for a while, and finally lowered her head and told the truth: "I went to hoe the ground today, who would have messed with my hands?" Be like this."

She then explained: "Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who can't work. It's just that my father and mother are old and have a daughter, so they inevitably prefer me. I don't do farm work at home, but I will slow down. Learn slowly, I learn quickly, and I will know everything soon."

Seeing that he was still silent, but his aura was even more cold, making people intimidated for no reason, An Xiu'er could only continue to explain, saying: "My blisters look scary, but they are actually nothing. If you don’t spend money to seek medical advice, don’t be angry.”

"What do you think I'm angry about?" Seeing her babbling and pushing again, Zhang Zhenan's voice became colder, and he didn't even know why he was angry.

"Then why are you angry?" An Xiu'er asked cautiously, "Could it be because my nieces came today and I made them eggs in sugar water, so you are angry."

Zhang Zhen'an saw that her words became more and more outrageous, and her heart became more and more anxious, "You think I'm such a stingy person?"

"You're not stingy." An Xiu'er still flattered him with a shy face, even deliberately lowered her voice, and said coquettishly, "Then tell me, I'll change it, okay?"

Zhang Zhenan lowered his head, stared at her, but said: "Don't go digging."

"Ah?" An Xiu'er was puzzled, and said, "But, what if we don't have food then?"

Zhang Zhenan looked at her pair of water-cut eyes full of worry, so he could only reply: "I'll come to hoe tomorrow, that's fine."

"That's fine." An Xiu'er laughed, with a hint of slyness flashing in her eyes, she said: "Manly man, don't go back on your word, this is what you promised yourself, I didn't force you."

"I don't go back on my word." Zhang Zhen'an nodded, he was a man anyway, and he would never break his promise on such a trivial matter.

"That's good." An Xiu'er smiled lightly, with a dimple in the corner of her mouth, seeing that Zhang Zhen'an had let go of her hand and walked out, she brought him the bowl of cold sugar water eggs from the stove. In front of him, he said, "Look, I'm good to you, I've specially reserved it for you."

Zhang Zhenan looked at the eggs in sugar water in front of him, the amber-like soup, the two eggs were white and tender, just like, Zhang Zhenan looked up at her, and felt that it was as smooth and tender as her little face.

He accurately picked up one with his chopsticks, and bit down, the yolk juice inside overflowed from the egg. He quickly took a sip, and ate the rich soup in his mouth. It was tender and fragrant, and it melted in his mouth. , obviously it doesn't look special, but it tastes really good, even he, who doesn't covet appetite, has to praise the deliciousness.

An Xiu'er carefully looked at his face, seeing that he was eating happily, she also felt satisfied, leaning on her wrist to watch, an egg fell into her bowl.

"What are you doing, I've already eaten." An Xiu'er said hastily.

"You didn't eat." Zhang Zhenan's voice was calm, but he was very determined, "Don't worry, it's just an egg, I'm not so poor yet."

"Sir, you are so kind." An Xiu'er sent him another good person card, she felt a little flattered in her heart, and felt that although he looked rough, he was kind-hearted and treated her very well.

Tasting the eggs silently, Zhang Zhenan also started to eat the egg fried rice that An Xiuer had prepared for him. After An Xiuer finished eating the eggs, she began to drink the rice soup in front of her again. Although it was light, she also felt that it was sweet.

"Why don't you eat?" Zhang Zhenan looked up at her.

"I like to drink rice soup." An Xiu'er smiled.

Zhang Zhenan frowned, and said, "Is there not enough food at home?"

"No." An Xiu'er shook her head, seeing that Zhang Zhen'an wanted to know the reason, she said, "I just thought that you spent a lot of money marrying me, so I have to plan carefully and save some money for you."

When Zhang Zhenan heard this, a self-deprecating smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Although An Xiu'er was always thinking about her family and him, he felt inexplicably that he was underestimated by her. Does he look so inferior?Still can't afford her?If those friends from the past knew about it, they would definitely laugh at him to death.

Reaching out and pushing the bowl in front of her to her, Zhang Zhen'an naturally took the rice soup in front of her and drank it. An Xiu'er was startled, and asked, "You don't despise me anymore?"

Zhang Zhen'an looked up at her, ignored her and continued to drink as she lowered her head, anyway, it was the first time, and it didn't matter to have another one, not to mention, he couldn't dislike this girl made of water.

Seeing that he really didn't dislike him, An Xiu'er was secretly happy in her heart, and also knew that he was not the kind of person who cares about small things. It was true that she had misunderstood before. There is also a big difference between people, and she He felt that he was someone worthy of her reliance.

After taking a few mouthfuls, she pushed the bowl in front of him again, and said, "I'm full, you eat the rest, don't waste it."

"Are you really full?" Zhang Zhenan felt that her appetite was really small.

"Well, I'm so full." An Xiu'er rubbed her belly while talking.

Two traces of smiles appeared in Zhang Zhenan's deep pupils, he picked up the chopsticks and finished the meal, and then helped her tidy up the dishes.
