Chapter 403: Hairy Eggs
Aunt Liu lit the fire under the stove, and said gratefully when she heard this: "The owner is always so considerate. (.) My mother often said that even if she was her own son, she couldn't treat her better. β
He Shi carried the spatula and turned over the cakes in the pot, and said with a smile: "Don't say it, I'm embarrassed, how many miles can an old man like her eat?" She always helps me take care of my grandson! I used to be poor, and I couldn't be a good person even if I wanted to, but now it's much better. β
Aunt Liu thanked a few more words, saying that not all owners are so kind, and it is a good fortune for their family to meet someone like the Zhang family!
Seeing that the two of them were politely touting, Chrysanthemum didn't interject, and came out with a basket of cakes and asked the grapes: "Is your brother a brother?" Went to sleep so soon? β
Grape nodded, "My grandmother went back to sleep with him." β
Chrysanthemum said: "Then let's take the chestnut shallots to their grandmother's house, and send cakes by the way." β
So the two of them each hugged one, and Chrysanthemum struggled to hold the basket on the left side and went to Zheng's house.
Unexpectedly, the cake was still hot, and after holding it in his arms like this, he felt that the heat was scorching after a while, and he hurriedly quickened his pace, and before he reached the gate of Zheng's courtyard, he shouted: "Brother, brother, come and take it." β
When the grapes saw her, they knew that she was hot and wanted to come over to help, but she was already struggling to hold the shallots, where could she serve another basket of cakes? That's twenty miles.
Fortunately, Aoki was in the courtyard, and when he heard her voice, he hurried out, first took the basket, then hugged the chestnut, weighed the weight of the basket, and reproached: "Why are you so careless?" There are so many cakes, there are several pounds, and they are still hot, don't you know how to score two trips? If you don't come and call me first, I'll pick you up. Can it be burned? β
Chrysanthemum shook her arm and smiled embarrassedly, "It's okay." Don't I feel like it's right in front of me? Such a little way, I thought I could get there in one go. Come in, the grapes won't be able to hold after standing for a long time. β
Several people entered the courtyard, only to see Liu Yunlan sitting next to Aoki's freshly washed sieve, which was supported by two large benches, and a cutting board was placed in it, and she was cutting a round gray moldy bean dregs in her hand.
When he saw Chrysanthemum, he asked with concern, "What's wrong with Chrysanthemum?" β
Aoki told her, she also scolded the chrysanthemum, and asked Aoki to bring the gourd cart, put the chestnuts in it, and hold the shallots in her hands.
Hearing this, Yang came out of the east room with a gourd, followed by a little girl about the same size as a grape, with a delicate face, but some yellow and thin muscles.
When Grape saw her, he exclaimed happily, "Niu! Then he called Yang a little embarrassedly, "Grandma Zheng!" β
Yang smiled: "It's easy for you two to get together and talk." By the way, look at some chestnuts and shallots. β
The two little girls couldn't help but be overjoyed when they heard this, or the grapes and chrysanthemums were longer, and they thanked the Yang family in a regular manner, and then pulled Niuniu to the side of the chestnut, brought two small stools, and the two sat down, chattering and talking, and beckoning to the gourd, "Come and play with my brother, look at my brother smiling at you." β
The gourd pounced on Chrysanthemum, and as soon as he called "Auntie", the chestnut screamed there, and he had to let go of Chrysanthemum's hand and resigned himself to coaxing his younger brother - if he didn't pay attention to him, the chestnut would keep yelling, and he had experience.
However, he prefers to play with his sister, so he pesters Aoki to put the shallots down. hugged her first, kissed her again, and then took her little hand and laughed. In order to show fairness, he also did this set of actions to the chestnut, and he saw Aoki and Liu Yunlan happy.
Chrysanthemum helped Yang and said with a smile: "Mother, I made some fruit cakes, the filling is salty, and I am not greasy, can you eat two and see if you can do it?" Sister Yunlan, you can also rest for a while, and I will help you cut it later. And he said, "Is Grandma cooking?" I went to the kitchen to get chopsticks and asked my grandmother to come and eat too. Then he went to the kitchen.
Before I reached the kitchen door, I smelled a burnt aroma, something like fried eggs.
"Grandma, what are you cooking here?"
Wang was standing by the board, using chopsticks to pick up a plate of fried brown things. Hearing the sound, he looked up, saw that it was a chrysanthemum, and said with a smile: "Chrysanthemum, you are here, look at the good things fried by Aunt Ma, you specify that you like to eat." I'm about to send it out for them to taste. β
Aunt Ma was a peasant woman in her forties, with a somewhat vicissitudes of life, a headscarf wrapped around her head, and her clothes were clean and neatβChrysanthemum recognized them as Yang's old clothesβand she looked like a refreshing figure.
When she saw Chrysanthemum, she smiled a little shyly and didn't squeak. This is a person who doesn't like to talk, which is different from Aunt Liu's enthusiasm.
She flipped the contents of the pot and patted it gently with a spatula before she said to her grandmother, "It's done, old lady." He also said to the mother of the Zhang family, Liu Yunlan, who was burning the fire under the stove, "Grandma, a small fire is fine." β
Zhang responded.
Chrysanthemum shouted to Zhang: "Auntie, why do you want to burn the fire?" β
Wang Shi smiled: "Don't let her do it, I want to intervene, drive Niuniu to take care of the gourd, and don't let me do it, your mother is embarrassed." β
Zhang hurriedly said: "Her grandmother, why are you saying this?" I'm embarrassed. Chrysanthemum, I'm not just here to work, I'm just here to gather together to make up hot lots, and sit here to gossip with Aunt Ma and grandma. Your mother's body is not very comfortable, I talk a lot, I am afraid that she will be annoyed by listening, so I came to the kitchen.
You can talk to auntie. β
Chrysanthemum hurriedly said a few polite words, and Wang stuffed a pair of chopsticks in her hand and asked her to taste the burnt yellow thing.
The chrysanthemum took a piece, and when she saw that there were still fine hairs on it, she suddenly realized: "It's a hairy egg." β
She immediately hesitated, holding the thing in her mouth and not daring to put it in her mouth.
These are eggs that have not hatched chicks, some are still yolks, and some are formed chicks. She also ate it when she was a child in her previous life, but later, she was told by a friend in the city that there were bacteria and nutrients that had been consumed, so she didn't dare to eat it anymore, and besides, she subconsciously resisted what was made in the restaurant.
Therefore, a few years ago, the Zheng family hatched chicks and produced hairy eggs, and they were all called chrysanthemums and thrown away, and the Yang family had no choice.
This time, several hens opened the nest and produced a lot of hairy eggs, and it happened that Wang's was here, and Aunt Ma was not taboo, so the two of them exploded.
Wang Shi saw that Chrysanthemum was stunned and looked at the fried eggs, but he didn't eat them, so he urged earnestly: "Eat it while it's hot, it's not delicious when it's cold." This stuff is the most supplemental, you eat two more. Aunt Ma can fry, fried thoroughly, yellow on both sides, and sprinkled with some diced sour cowpeas on it, which is not greasy at all. β
Chrysanthemum didn't want the old man to think about it, and was going to eat one, anyway, she hadn't eaten it, but she still asked, "Can you eat this?" β
Wang Shi glared and said, "Of course you can eat it." Every time the chicks hatch and produce hairy eggs, grandma will fry them for your uncle and a few of them to eat - I am not willing to eat them! Just count your second uncle who has eaten a lot, and your mother has also eaten a lot. In the past, there was no oil, and it was all dried from the kang. Aunt Ma heard from your mother that in previous years, your family threw away the hairy eggs, and she was afraid that you would dislike them, so she specially fried them in oil. Look, how good it is. I can't throw it away anymore, it's a pity. β
Chrysanthemum was afraid of the old man's nagging, so she hurriedly stuffed the yellow thing into her mouth, took a bite, it was really burnt, and it was a little sour and salty of cowpeas, which was very good.
Aunt Ma seemed to understand Chrysanthemum's thoughts, and comforted her with a smile: "Grandma, I have blown it up fiercely, and I won't get sick if I eat it." β
Zhang said with a smile: "Her grandmother, chrysanthemums are dirty, I'm afraid that this thing is not clean, and I will have trouble my stomach when I eat it." Chrysanthemum, don't you be afraid, my Yunlan and Yungen have also eaten, and they are all fine. We can't do as well as Aunt Ma's fried ones. β
Wang Shi smiled and said: "Chrysanthemum, you also ate it when you were a child, did you forget?" This baby has grown up and is much more exquisite. I'm afraid, if you eat two more pieces, your grandmother will keep you. People can't eat it if they want to, but in previous years, you all threw away the hairy eggs. β
Chrysanthemum was very embarrassed to hear it, anyway, this thing tastes good, so I just ate two, can I still eat the dead in my heart? The countrymen eat like this, but they went into the city by themselves, and there were a lot of taboos.
When Wang saw her eat, he smiled happily: "It's good to eat." This is the most supplemental, and you should eat more in this body.
Let's go, let's send this plate out for them to eat. As he spoke, he took a handful of chopsticks and came out with a plate.
As a result, the big and small ones in the yard all ate happily, only Yang couldn't smell the aroma of oil at all, and she had already stood far away, but the fruit cake that Chrysanthemum brought over, and she also ate two.
Chrysanthemum looked at Liu Yunlan with admiration and said, "Sister Yunlan, you have a good appetite, look at my mother, you can't smell it at all." β
Liu Yunlan blushed and said with a smile: "I don't know what's going on, I always feel hungry and always want to eat." β
Aoki hurriedly said, "You can eat if you want, but don't bear it." Eat more to keep you energized. Yun Lan, what do you want to eat, just tell Aunt Ma, your own family, don't think about what you don't have, my mother has a bad appetite, you don't have to follow her. β
Liu Yunlan saw his earnest advice, her heart was sweet, and she nodded softly and agreed.
Chrysanthemum also persuaded her, sat down to help cut the bean dregs, and Aoki went to the field to get busy.
Chrysanthemum saw that the Yang family also came to help, so she asked, "Mother, are you okay today?" β
Although Yang was tired, his face was good, and he smiled at her, "It's okay." You don't have to worry about me, I'm fine. It's really poor to say, I feel uncomfortable when I smell the oily smell, and it's good to eat some green vegetables and tofu. This moldy bean dregs roasted cabbage, I can eat a big bowl. I told Yun Lan to dry it and pack it up and eat it slowly. β
This moldy bean dregs is cut into long strips and dried, and it will not be bad if it is packed in a crockpot, otherwise, it will be too moldy and easy to spoil.
Chrysanthemum listened carefully, nodded and said: "This moldy bean dregs is a good thing for poor families, it's okay to eat more, as the saying goes, 'Green vegetables and tofu keep safe, right?'" My mother loves to eat, and when I go back, I use pickled snow fern to roast bean dregs, and it is also very delicious to use it to send rice. But mother, Doctor Yun said, you should eat less of these pickles, and Sister Yun Lan is too, try to eat lighter. β
