Chapter 71: Reflection down, laying eggs every day
"It was originally used to make lampshades."
It dawned on Ruan Vinh Thanh that when he was making furniture for other people's homes, he had seen an enamelled cover on the light bulb hanging on the roof of some people's houses with a white dish shaped like a saucer on the side of the bulb.
At that time, he was puzzled, and asked his master about the purpose of the cover, and the master told him that it was the cover that reflected the upward light down, making it look brighter below.
"Daughter-in-law, did Xinmiao say that the lampshade can reflect the upward light down and make it look brighter underneath?"
"Reflection?" Wu Shi twisted his eyebrows and thought about it, and shook his head slightly, "Xinmiao doesn't seem to have said these words. ”
Ruan Yongsheng felt that it should be right, since it was a lampshade, the effect should be the same.
I didn't expect that this daughter-in-law could make a lampshade with iron wire and white cloth, and in the future, should I let Xinmiao make a lampshade on top of all the bulbs at home, so that a fifteen-watt bulb might be able to have a thirty-watt bulb lit.
Ruan Haoyan plucked spinach, cabbage, green onions, pinched coriander and green onion leaves, and went back to the kitchen.
Tian Xinmiao was not polite to her, and instructed her to pick all kinds of dishes and let her clean them.
And she diced the artichoke, carrots, and white radish, and chopped the spinach, bok choy, green onions, green onion leaves, and coriander.
The two sisters-in-law were busy chatting at the same time.
"Haoyan, why don't you suddenly want to eat egg noodles?" Tian Xinmiao hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to ask the question in his heart.
Because she vaguely remembers that when she was young, the hens raised by her grandmother didn't seem to lay eggs every day.
Speaking of 'egg noodles', Ruan Haoyan's face couldn't help but collapse again.
"Sister-in-law, one of the remaining eight hens in our family seems to be looking for a nest, and my mother said that when she gets a dozen eggs, she will let her hatch a nest of chicks, but the remaining seven hens, I don't know what's going on, and they can only lay eggs the next day."
"Three a day, three or four days can make up a dozen eggs."
After Ruan Haoyan finished washing the dishes, Tian Xinmiao motioned for her to start the fire, and she began to make the soup.
Tian Xinmiao's skillful movements and the aroma coming out of the pot made Ruan Haoyan, who was sitting in front of the stove, happy in his eyes.
However, Tian Xinmiao's question once again made Ruan Haoyan's face gloomy, and after hesitating for a moment, she thought that her sister-in-law was already her own family and should not hide anything, so she said: "Sister-in-law, when you and your eldest brother got married, you had to use a lot of eggs to fry Rama (egg balls), and my mother was reluctant to buy them with money, so I borrowed more than 30 from the collar family. ”
Ruan Haoyan sighed softly, stuffed a handful of grass into the stove, pulled the bellows with her right hand, and continued: "Mother must be thinking about waiting for other people's eggs to be returned before hatching the little **, otherwise the neighbors will gossip." ”
Tian Xinmiao's hand stirring the things in the pot suddenly paused, and her eyes flashed the two round poached eggs in her bowl yesterday morning, and her heart couldn't help but be accompanied by sourness when the warmth swelled up.
Thinking about what kind of entanglement and distress Wu should have had when he was beating those four poached eggs in the kitchen at that time.
"It's going to get better, the hens will lay eggs every day, and the chicks will hatch quickly."
Tian Xinmiao whispered the thoughts in her heart unconsciously.
"Sister-in-law, everyone's hens in the village are like this, it's not surprising, when the eggs for hatching chicks are enough, you can make me another egg noodle sheet to eat, okay?"
Just hearing the name made her appetite run wild.
