Chapter 40: Egg custard
After eating, as usual, after cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Mu Li went to boil water for Mu Dad and Mu He to wipe their bodies.
And she herself is still using cold water.
The Mu family, who has no electric lights and no candles, is so dark that everything has to be done before it gets dark, and then go to bed.
"Sister, tonight's chicken is delicious." Lying on the bed, Mu Xiaozhi nested into Mu Li's arms and said to her.
There was such a big pot of chicken soup tonight, although most of the chicken soup and chicken went into Mu Dad and Mu He's stomachs, but the others got half a bowl more wild mushrooms than usual.
Therefore, Mu Li ate quite a full dinner, and so did Xiao Zhi, so he didn't give him extra fruit to eat tonight.
"Xiao Zhi likes to eat chicken." Mu Li said with a smile, she also likes to eat chicken, stir-fried chicken, stewed chicken fried chicken, braised chicken nuggets, except for boiling into greasy chicken soup, she likes other methods.
"As long as it's meat, Xiaozhi likes to eat it, but that chicken is so pitiful, the second brother said that it will be able to lay eggs in more than a month, but now it is eaten by us."
Although he ate delicious chicken, if he had a choice, Mu Xiaozhi still hoped that the chicken would keep the eggs.
"Well, it's okay, there's still a chicken, when the chicken lays eggs, my sister will make you egg custard to eat." Mu Li said.
The nutrition of the whole family can't keep up, but the others don't care, Mu Feng and Xiaozhi definitely have to make up for it, she doesn't want the two of them to follow in Mu He's footsteps.
Thirteen-year-old Mu He is only about one meter three or four tall, and this age should be more than one meter six according to normal, twenty or thirty centimeters shorter than normal, and a little hunchbacked.
Of course, she saw that most of the other teenagers of this age in the village were lower than this standard, but they were also one meter four or five, which was a little taller than Mu He.
Mu He can't take care of it for the time being, let's talk about it when she can, the most important thing now is Mu Xiaozhi and Mu Feng.
"The eggs at home are for my father and eldest brother."
Mu Xiaozhi said, eggs are also good things in the countryside, not to mention their family background, generally good things are given to their father and eldest brother first.
Mu Li sighed in her heart, but said with a smile on her face: "It's okay, you don't need the eggs at home, my sister will be able to make them for you." ”
"Sister, what is egg custard? Xiao Zhi had only heard of boiled eggs and scrambled eggs. Mu Xiaozhi asked with bright eyes.
"You'll know when the time comes, the egg custard is delicious, slippery, tender, and melts in your mouth with a bite." Mu Li smiled.
Mu Xiaozhi's eyes are bright, tender, and slippery, is there such a delicious thing?
After coaxing Mu Xiaozhi to sleep, Mu Li entered the space.
Today's harvest is very good, the wild mushrooms found three bushes, although not much, but there are also seven or eight catties, left to put outside, plus the previous one, there are about eight catties in the space.
But what makes Mu Li most satisfied is these herbs, as soon as the herbs grow, they grow a small clump, and the place where she went in today is deeper, but she can find a lot.
Now they are all planted in the space, but it is a bit troublesome, and it needs to be dried, and now it seems that there are a lot of herbs, but in fact, there are very few after drying and removing moisture.
In addition, these are not the same herbs, there are several kinds of herbs, each of which is a little, and even less after drying, even if it is sold in a medicine store, it is not much money.
