Chapter 479

Cao Wei burst into tears when he heard his mother's question. Fortunately, under the cover of night, the people he cared about could see him crying. , said in a harsh voice

"Mom, I have to leave at six o'clock, so I don't want to eat when I wake up so early! You don't care! I'll go to sleep first!"

Although Cao Wei spoke in a low voice on purpose, no matter how he adjusted the volume, it couldn't cover up his heartbroken voice. Although Li Maixiang couldn't speak, she was a delicate mother. Hearing her son's voice choked up, In an instant, his heart was pierced, but he had nothing to do. Although he wanted to give his old life to his son, even if he took his own life, it would not change the current situation of being forced to choose, because for his son, if If getting a daughter-in-law is the top priority, having a decent and stable job is a matter bigger than the sky. The only thing I can do now is to let the child have a full stomach before going to Yan'an, and then he sighed and turned around. Kitchen cave to go!

After Cao Wei finished speaking, he went back to the cave as quickly as possible and lit a cigarette. He sat on the edge of the kang and smoked one puff after another. He looked at the earthen cave that had been inhabited for three generations. As if looking at my own dark future, the more I look at it, the more I lose, the more I look at it, the more regretful, and the more I look at it, the more confused I become!Lying on the quilt without taking off his shoes, he fell into deep thought like a thousand arrows piercing his heart!
The next morning, Li Maixiang woke up just after the first crowing of the rooster, and began to get dressed in the dark. After asking the question, he gently stroked his son's hair, let out a long sigh and gently closed the cave door, and returned to the kitchen cave again.

As soon as Li Maixiang walked out of the kitchen cave, Cao Mancang sat up, touched the pipe and frowned tightly, puffing up the cigarette, beating in his heart, wondering if his son could sign a formal employment contract this time. , Will it affect my son's future because of going home for a blind date? If so, it won't help if I regret it.

When Cao Mancang was depressed, Li Maixiang walked into the cave dwelling with his shoulders drooping, so he said a little irritably

"You crazy old woman! Most of the night, don't sleep well, why are you wandering around in the yard!"

Li Maixiang glared, because her son was about to go to work at dawn, and she was in an extremely bad mood. Looking at the red sparks on the kang, getting older and more irritable, she turned on the light and communicated in their unique way.
"Sitting on the kang and smoking, if sparks fall on the quilt, it will easily catch fire! My son has to take the car to Yan'an at six o'clock in the morning. We can't let him go hungry. Get up and make breakfast now!"

When Cao Mancang heard Li Maixiang complaining about smoking on the kang, he instantly felt uncomfortable. He thought to himself, this prodigal bitch, she will become smart when she gets old. I have been fine smoking all my life on the kang. It can't be done, but when he heard that he couldn't let his son go out hungry, he slumped on the kang as if he had lost something, slammed two mouthfuls of cigarette holders, and said helplessly
"Oh! Then hurry up and make it! Don't cook porridge and hot steamed buns in the morning. There is no food sold on the road. Make some poached eggs for the baby! You won't be hungry after eating!"

Because Li Maixiang has never walked out of the mountains, the farthest place is the town, and when she heard that there was no food for sale on the road, she suddenly became nervous, and hurried over to count the eggs in the egg basket, and found that there were only eight eggs, and turned around a little anxiously She walked over, and said anxiously with words that only those around her could understand.

"There is no food for sale! What if the baby is starved to death! Now it's too late to bake the pot, and we only have eight eggs left in the house. Let's make three poached eggs for home, and boil five eggs to eat on the way. My son will eat it." Won't go hungry!"

When Cao Mancang heard that his daughter-in-law gave all the eggs to his son, he felt really bad for a moment, because he lived his life and couldn't make up ten eggs for his son to go out. He really didn't know that he was living in this world What do you mean, so he sighed and said

"It should be about the same!"

After Li Maixiang got her husband's permission, she hurried over to get the eggs, but when she brought the eggs to the water tank and was about to scoop up water to wash, she suddenly stopped and continued gesticulating.

"Make poached eggs for my son first! Let's boil eggs first!"

Cao Mancang hesitated for a moment, thinking that the first time the rooster crowed was not long, and the biggest time now is just over four o'clock, and my son got the earliest bus at six o'clock in the morning, and got up at 05:30, there was still more than an hour left, so let's make poached eggs first If it's cold, it won't taste good when my son wakes up from sleep, so he said irritably
"Do you have a pig's brain? My son is not up yet, who are you making poached eggs for? When I go to wake him up, you are making poached eggs. Now Xiaolan boiled the eggs and put them in cold water to freeze , it’s easy to peel when eating!”

Li Maixiang came to the unit's eyes, thinking that if I didn't have a pig's head, how could I look for a blind man like you with round eyes, but I was afraid that I would annoy this stubborn old man, so the sweeper flew over, so he licked his hands He pursed his lips without saying a word, but quickly lit a fire to boil water, and started to boil eggs for his son.

The rooster had just crowed for the third time, Cao Mancang hurriedly got off the kang, and said while putting on his shoes
"It's almost five o'clock! I'll go over and wake up the baby, you start making poached eggs!"

When Li Maixiang heard that she was going to wake her son up, she hurried over to help Cao Mancang out of the house. When she came back, she brought back the eggs soaked in cold water and put them on the snowdrifts. She took a towel to dry the water one by one and put them in a plastic bag. The poached eggs are the best, and they keep you warm after eating them. Her son won’t freeze when he walks on the road and sits in the car. When you enter the door, break the eggs into the pot.

Cao Mancang leaned on the wall and came to the cave next door. Just when he opened the door and was about to ask his son to get up to wash his face and eat, Cao Wei stared in surprise and said,

"Dad, it's not dawn yet, why did you wake up so early!"

Cao Mancang pursed his lips, thinking that you are going out today, how could I sleep well, but he has always shown the image of a strict father in front of his son, so he turned and walked out and said
"Your mother is afraid that you may have overslept, so let me come and have a look! Now that you're up, go and wash your face and eat some poached eggs your mother made for you. The bus should be here soon!"

Cao Wei's eyes lit up when he heard poached eggs, because he likes to eat poached eggs made by his mother the most, but thinking that his parents are usually reluctant to eat eggs, so he pretended to be angry and said
"Dad, you and my mother can eat! I drank a little too much yesterday, so I won't eat today if I feel sick to my stomach!"
