Chapter 9

For breakfast the next day, Lin Yuehua baked cornmeal tortillas, beat two eggs, stirred them with water, thought about it and divided them into three bowls for steaming, one serving for each person.

"Wow!" Lin Dahu's eyes lit up when he saw the steamed eggs.

Lin Yuehua saw it, and blamed Aunt Lin for treating them harshly. The siblings often couldn't get enough to eat, let alone the meat. The steamed eggs that she didn't like to eat in her previous life were all good things now.

"Dahu, go wash your face, wash your hands and rinse your mouth before eating." Lin Yuehua saw that the corners of Lin Dahu's eyes were still clinging to his eyes.

"Okay." Lin Dahu went obediently.

It seems that this child is not a reluctance, he is still obedient.

For breakfast, both Erya and Duhu ate very satisfyingly, and Lin Yuehua also ate cleanly. Her current body is so skinny that she needs to be replenished.

"Dahu, do you know how to say hello to Grandma Wang when I see you later? If you listen to my sister, she will let you eat eggs every day from now on." Lin Yuehua led Lin Dahu by the hand.

"Can you really eat eggs every day?" The little boy's eyes were full of longing.

Lin Yuehua smiled, and stretched out her little finger: "Pull the hook. Whoever cheats is a puppy."

"Pull the hook." Lin Dahu laughed until his gums were exposed.

Lin Dahu raised his head and looked at Lin Yuehua. He felt that his sister was a little different. The elder aunt always spoke ill of the elder sister. The elder sister was a loser. She said that her cousin was his closest relative, and told him to ignore her.

But what does he want to do with his eldest sister now?The eldest sister can make Zhang Shitou apologize, and also steamed delicious custard for him.

Lin Yuehua walked all the way and looked at Linjia Village, there were fifty or sixty families in the village.

The most magnificent house in that village is the home of the landlord, Mr. Jiang, a compound with two entrances and two exits.

It is said that Jiang's family has a distant relative who is a high-ranking official in Fucheng, but it is only said that Jiang's landlord's family does not have much contact with the Lin family's villagers.

"Sister, why are you looking at Jiang Hai's house? He's a bad guy, always calling other children in the village to bully me. Pooh!" Lin Dahu spit in the direction of Jiang's house after speaking.

Lin Yuehua didn't look at this younger brother, and talked patiently for a while, seeing Lin Dahai's look of fooling around.

Tired of teaching!

There was a family with seven or eight houses. Lin Yuehua looked around curiously. It was the home of Zhang Tieshao, a cook in the village and town. He had six sons.

"Fifth brother, big girl is here, come in and close the door." Then with a "swoosh", two men in the courtyard ran to hide in the house, and they all ran out of afterimages.

Lin Yuehua's face turned black!
She is not an old demon from Montenegro, avoid her?So angry!

Lin Yuehua came to the home of Granny Wang, a widowed old man in the village. Her son died in the army during the war, and her wife left early. She raised chickens and sold eggs in the village.

"Grandma Wang, I'm a big girl, I'm here to buy eggs."

"Big girl, come in."

Pushing open the courtyard door, Lin Yuehua was stunned for a moment. She saw Zhao Yunting. He was dressed in black today, and he looked tall and stern.

Lin Xiudi, the eldest granddaughter of Village Lin, was also there. Lin Xiudi was wearing a goose-yellow dress and had delicate features. She was squatting on the ground and counting the eggs in the basket.

Lin Yuehua sighed in her heart that this handsome man and beautiful woman, not to mention they are quite a good match, they are so eye-catching together, she subconsciously touched her pimple face with her hand.

"Big girl, how many do you want?" Granny Wang asked with gray hair and kind eyes.

"Let Brother Zhao buy it first, and I'll buy it after seeing how much is left. I'll pay Brother Zhao's money as well." Lin Yuehua thought that Zhao Yunting had saved her, so it was right to buy eggs to thank him.

"You don't need to pay." Zhao Yunting gave the copper coin, took the egg and left.

"There are twenty eggs in total, and this is twenty Wen for you, Granny Wang." Lin Xiudi paid the money, and when she left, she gave Lin Yuehua a meaningful and slightly disgusted look.

Lin Yuehua looked puzzled.

"Dahu, what are you doing?" Lin Yuehua saw that Lin Dahu had caught a chick in his hand.

"Don't pinch it to death." Granny Wang shouted with distressed expression.

"Grandma Wang, do you still have these chickens in your house? I want to buy some." Lin Yuehua thought of an idea and asked Lin Dahu to feed the chickens. The energetic child had to find something for him to do.

Hearing that Lin Yuehua wanted to buy it, Granny Wang replied happily: "Yes, this is the first litter hatched in early spring, and it has been raised for about ten days."

Chickens are more expensive than eggs, at three Wen each. I bought five chicks and fifteen eggs, and spent a total of Thirty Wen. At present, Lin Yuehua still has one tael of silver and twenty Wen.

"Sister, fluffy." Lin Dahu happily played with the chicken in his hand.

"Dahu, these five chicks will be fed to you in the future, can you do it?" Lin Yuehua looked into Lin Dahu's eyes and asked seriously.

"Ah! Leave it to me?" Lin Dahu pointed at himself, looking very surprised.

"Yeah, my sister thinks that Dahu is very powerful. He can make our chickens fat and can lay eggs when they grow up. Then Dahu can eat eggs every day. Isn't it good?"

"Okay. I'll raise the chicks." After being praised, Lin Dahu walked away with a triumphant pace.

"Dahu, when the chickens grow up a bit, you can usually catch more vegetable bugs and feed them, and you can also feed those rotten vegetable leaves to the chickens by chopping them up."

"Okay, I want to catch a lot of bugs and feed our chickens fat."

Chatting and chatting, they soon passed Chef Zhang's house again, and Lin Yuehua went directly into the courtyard this time.

"Big girl, what are you doing here?" Zhang Liulang panicked.

Lin Yuehua was funny.

"Look at your talent, I can eat you up. Sixth son, tell your elder brother that I'm going to town by bullock cart tomorrow, so book a seat first!"

Zhang Liulang's eldest brother, Zhang Yilang, drove an ox cart to the town and charged one penny for each person.

"Okay, I'll talk to my elder brother." Zhang Liulang rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment, blaming his mother for asking him to be his son-in-law.
