Yu Xiangnian was woken up by Cheng Jingmo the next day.
"Nian Nian, does it still hurt?"
Yu Xiangnian closed his eyes again, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
"I have a lot of work today. I won't go home for lunch. If you feel uncomfortable, ask Lao Liu and Xiaojie to call me."
"Um."
It was already late when Yu Xiangnian woke up and remembered what Cheng Jingmo said.
If they don't go home to eat, will they be hungry all day?
In the kitchen, Cheng Shuanqin, the fifth child, was cooking. She said, "When I finish it, I will send it to them."
Yu Xiangnian glanced at the food cooked by Cheng Shuanqin, which included steamed buns, a plate of fried shredded potatoes, and a plate of pickled radishes.
There are so many people in the family working to earn money, and Cheng Jingmo also sends money home. How come he is still so poor? !
Yu Xiangnian went back to his room and took the eggs he bought yesterday to the kitchen.
She bought twenty eggs and ate seven yesterday. She handed the remaining thirteen eggs to Lao Wu, "Cook them all and eat them."
This retains the most nutrients in the eggs.
After the meal was ready, Yu Xiangnian gave Lao Wu, Lao Liu, Xiaojie, Da Mao, Xiao Mao and An Zi an egg each.
There were seven more eggs, and there happened to be seven people working outside.
However, she didn't want to lock up Cheng's couple.
But if it was not given to those two people, the purpose of this would be too obvious.
She took two more eggs, Lao Wu cooked them and was rewarded with one, Lao Liu took Xiaojie to sleep and was rewarded with one.
Then, she put two eggs in the rice basket and told Lao Wu, "Give these two eggs to your parents later, and no one else will give them to you."
Cheng Jingmo remembered their kindness in raising him, so she was a little more tolerant.
Finally, she put the three eggs into her cotton-padded jacket pocket and went to deliver the meal with Lao Wu.
It is the busy time of farming, and the fields are full of people.
Wherever Yu Xiangnian goes, he is the center of attention.
What happened yesterday was spread throughout the village.
I used my own money to sew the monkey's wounds, and also bought eggs, brown sugar, and sugar for the monkey.
Such a kind-hearted person received admiring glances from the villagers along the way.
Hearing the voices of the crowd getting louder and louder, Cheng Jingmo, who was hoeing the ground, raised his head and saw Yu Xiangnian walking towards him with a smile on his face.
Except for the day of the banquet, Yu Xiangnian wore a dark gray cotton-padded jacket every day, alternating between two sets.
What she wears is similar to that of the women in the village, but she looks better in it than others.
Cheng Jingmo couldn't tell what was particularly good-looking, but she was the prettiest anyway.
Yu Xiangnian stood on the edge of the field and called him, "Cheng Jingmo, it's time to eat!"
Because there is a rush for seeds, at noon these days, every household has family members bringing food to the fields to eat.
Many people have come out of the fields and are sitting on the roadside or on the ridges of the fields eating.
Cheng Jingmo washed his hands in the bucket used to water the ground and came to Yu Xiangnian's side.
Lao Wu opened the lid of the basket and each took a steamed bun.
Cheng Shuansuo saw two eggs, his eyes lit up, and he reached for the eggs.
Lao Wu said: "This is for parents!"
Cheng Shuansuo's hand paused, "Why are there only two?"
Lao Wu said: "This is how my sister-in-law honors her parents."
Cheng Shuansuo snorted in dissatisfaction, looked at Yu Xiangnian and said, "Sister-in-law, it's just for parents, there's no need to be so stingy!"
Yu Xiangnian said quietly: "There are only two eggs left, specially reserved for my parents. If you have a good conscience, just eat them."
Cheng Shuansuo: "..."
Yu Xiangnian tugged at the corner of Cheng Jingmo's clothes.
Cheng Jingmo understood and took Yu Xiangnian away and came to a tree.
"Does your stomach still hurt?" he asked.
"It doesn't hurt." Yu Xiangnian took out three eggs from his pocket, "Here you go."
Cheng Jingmo pressed her hand and said, "I don't want it, you eat it."
"The food at home is so bad, you have lost weight!" Yu Xiangnian complained: "You said you have to work every day when you come back! They will count your work points!"
Cheng Jingmo smiled tolerantly and said, "I don't care about the work points. Farming is busy these days and the whole village is busy. I can do whatever I can. After these days are over, I will take you and Xiaojie for a walk."
Yu Xiangnian said: "Then eat the eggs! I ate two eggs yesterday and I don't want to eat them!"
Cheng Jingmo said: "I can bear it physically. You can take it home and feed it to those children."
"We already have kids!"
Cheng Jingmo immediately understood that Yu Xiangnian gave it to everyone and deliberately left Cheng Shuansu and Cheng Shuansuo alone.
This is made clear, no face will be given to those two families.
Cheng Shuan's family is actually not bad.
"Give it to the monkey!" Cheng Jingmo said.
Yu Xiangnian followed Cheng Jingmo's line of sight and saw that the monkey was wearing a hat and was still using the ox to plow the fields.
Also, he only has a paralyzed father at home, so how can anyone bring him food?
I was injured and fainted yesterday, but I have to continue working today in order to survive.
He needs these eggs more than Cheng Jingmo.
"Monkey!" Yu Xiangnian shouted over there.
The monkey turned his head and Yu Xiangnian waved to him, motioning for him to come over.
The monkey asked the cow to stop in the field to rest, and then ran over to it.
"Aunt, are you looking for me?"
Yu Xiangnian handed him the egg in his hand, "Eat and then go to work."
The monkey looked at the egg, then at Yu Xiangnian, and sighed in emotion, "Aunt..."
Yu Xiangnian pushed the egg to him, "Eat quickly, lower your head, and I'll check your wound."
The monkey lowered his head, and Yu Xiangnian took off the gauze, checked the wound, and then wrapped it again.
"The wound is recovering. If you have to work these days, you should continue to wrap it in gauze to protect the wound and avoid touching the water."
The monkey's hands peeling the egg shells trembled with emotion, and kept saying, "Hmm..."
Cheng Shuansuo looked at this scene, waved his hands angrily and left.
When Cheng Jingmo left with Yu Xiangnian just now, he followed him.
Sure enough, he guessed correctly!
Yu Xiangnian secretly gave Cheng Jingmo eggs!
Cheng Shuansuo came back and cursed at everyone: "She picked up three eggs for the baby, so her parents can only eat one!"
Cheng Shuanzhuo criticized him, "Don't be a picker of babies. If you add a brother behind you, you won't have a sore throat! Besides, it's her business to give the eggs she buys to whom she wants to eat!"
"Tsk!" Cheng Shuansuo raised his mouth in dissatisfaction, "You and your family have been talking to them all day, just to get something out of them!"
Cheng Shuanzhuo said: "I just want the whole family to be harmonious!"
"You treat him as a family member, but does he treat you as a family member?" Cheng Shuansuo said, "I won't even give you any eggs!"
Cheng Huazi gave a fake cough, and then said: "You brothers and sisters-in-law, you have been quarreling because of them every day these days, what do you look like!"
Zhang Hongli said provocatively: "Dad, Brother Pickup's wife is amazing! Look at Brother Pickup, he's so docile and obedient!"
Cheng Huazi smoked a dry cigarette and fell into deep thought.
