When the rooster crowed, it was not yet dawn, and it was still gray outside.

Shen Su'e picked a few relatively large eggs and put them on the table, and put the rest into a package and hid them under the bed.

"Mother, what are we going to eat later?" Xiao Lingbao asked.

"Let's eat egg pancakes...Does Lingbao like sweet or salty ones?"

"Sweet!" Lingbao said, "but not too sweet."

"It just so happens that your father and elder brother stuffed some brown sugar and lard in the bag... Lingbao, shall we have brown sugar egg pancakes this morning?"

The milk baby nodded happily, "Okay, okay, the name of this cake sounds delicious! This is the first time my mother has made it."

Her mother smiled and said, "Yes, this is my first time making it. I have never added eggs to pancakes before. I have only seen people eating egg pancakes in restaurants."

After taking the necessary ingredients, the mother and daughter went to the kitchen together.

Taking out a pot of suitable size from the cupboard, Shen Su'e added flour and brown sugar into the pot, added water and stirred it into a paste, and finally mixed it with eggs.

When she finished making the batter, Xiao Lingbao had already skillfully lit the fire, "Mother, the pot is already hot, do you want to put lard in?"

"Yeah." Shen Su'e dug out two spoonfuls of lard with a spoon and put it into the iron pot. After the milky white lard turned into oily water, she scooped up a spoonful of batter with a big soup spoon and poured it evenly into the pot. Let the egg batter cover the bottom of the pan.

Soon, the aroma of white flour and eggs was tangy, mixed with the aroma of brown sugar.

Today, Liao Guifen was the first person in the Shen family. She was worried that her mother-in-law would scold her, so she began to put on her clothes not long after the rooster crowed.

But then I went to the hut to delay for a while.

When she walked outside the kitchen, she saw a figure walking in the kitchen. She thought it was her mother-in-law, wondering if the sun came out from the west?Her mother-in-law would actually make a fire and cook herself?

"Mom, why did you get up so early?" Worried about being scolded by her mother-in-law, Liao Guifen explained, "I didn't get up late today. I got up as soon as the rooster crowed..."

Before she finished speaking, she noticed a small figure beside the stove. The person cooking by the iron pot was not her mother-in-law, but her eldest aunt.

She was stunned for a moment, and said awkwardly: "Yuan, it's the eldest aunt, ouch, look at my eyes, I actually recognized the wrong person... Let me just say, how could my mother get up so early to make breakfast for us?" .”

After finishing speaking, seeing that the eldest aunt did not answer her words, she moved closer and looked into the pot, "What are you doing today?"

"Cake." Shen Su'e said one word briefly.

"Baihe Village grows wheat, right? How much was the harvest last year? It must have been a lot. Will the dividends at the end of the year also be divided into flour?" Liao Guifen asked.

Her eldest aunt asked back, "Why are you asking these questions?"

"No, I'm just asking... Tiegou Village also planted wheat last year, but the harvest was not good. This year they switched to rice. It's funny to say this. I have been planting wheat in the ground for a year, and I have had it rain several times. As for the land, I helped harvest the wheat during the autumn harvest, but I didn’t eat a few bites of white flour.”

After talking a lot to herself, Liao Guifen saw that the pancakes in the pan were dark brown in color, and there was obviously something added inside, so she couldn't help but ask, "Auntie, what did you put in your batter? Why is it so fragrant?" ah?"

Shen Su'e turned the egg pancake over with a shovel, and seeing her nephew and daughter-in-law staring at the egg pancake, she thought that the more she concealed it, the easier it would be to attract suspicion, so she honestly replied: "I also put eggs and brown sugar in it." .”

"What? Eggs?" After speaking in astonishment, Liao Guifen noticed that there were unpacked egg shells on the side of the stove, and she was dumbfounded. "Auntie, did you put eggs in this pancake? One... two, you put Three eggs?"

"Well, I have two children with me, and each of them happens to have an egg, so I put three in." Shen Su'e's tone was extremely natural.

"You...why are you willing to eat this egg? It can be exchanged for money."

After finishing speaking, she immediately said again: "Auntie, your family is really rich, you can even eat eggs casually, ouch, there are three whole eggs, it's almost twenty cents, right? Two cents can buy a lot of things gone."

When she said this, her aunt had already fried the egg pancakes, "Lingbao, there's no need to light the fire, you should quickly put out the fire."

"Okay." The little milk boy responded obediently, and scooped up the carbon ash on the ground with a shovel, and covered it on the burning wood.

"Ms. Zhaoping, can you help me get a chopping board?"

Unexpectedly, her eldest aunt would suddenly call her. Liao Guifen came to her senses and responded quickly, "Okay..."

Finding the cutting board, she put it next to the big iron pot.

Shen Su'e straightened the chopping board, put a whole brown sugar egg cake on the chopping board, cut it diagonally into six parts with a knife, and put it on the plate.

Smelling the aroma of brown sugar and eggs, the glutton in Liao Guifen screamed.

I thought that my aunt would definitely take the whole plate away, but she cut one of the egg pancakes in half, "Try it."

"Ah? Me?" Liao Guifen was stunned.

"I'm going to take Lingbao and Tugen to the market later. If my elder brother and sister-in-law ask me, please tell them."

"Okay, no problem...but this omelette, I..."

Shen Su'e smiled and said: "Take it, treat you to eat, by the way, don't tell them about the omelette for now, after all, you also know that eggs are rare, and I can't invite everyone to eat omelette, so ..."

"I understand I understand."

"You can eat this pancake yourself, don't let other people know about it," Shen Su'e thought for a while, and then said, "If Zhaoping and Zhaogui eat egg pancakes, it's up to their children to ask for it too gone."

Liao Guifen frowned, as if thinking of something angry.

"Why are they making trouble? Especially Dexi! All the good things in this family are eaten by Dexi. My two sons are really pitiful, especially Zhaoping. After all, he is also the grandson of Shen's parents. Who else is not?" Do you love your eldest grandson? This is the only exception, any delicious food will be given to that Dexi first!"

After complaining a few words, Liao Guifen blushed, "Auntie, I'm so sorry, I suddenly said these things to you..."

"It's okay, I don't like that Dexi either. Okay, let's not talk anymore. I'm leaving first." After saying that, Shen Su'e picked up the plate with egg pancakes.

"Okay." After watching the eldest aunt leave with Xiao Lingbao, Liao Guifen looked at the brown sugar egg cake in her hand, her mind was still a little dazed, her heart beat involuntarily, and she was so happy that she couldn't speak.

Brown sugar is a rarity, and eggs are even more so...

Rare things plus rare things, plus flour, how delicious it is!

Thinking of this, Liao Guifen picked up the egg cake and took a bite, feeling the aroma of noodles, eggs and the sweetness of brown sugar mixed in the mouth, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and seemed to have the smell of lard, it was indescribably delicious.

"It's so delicious!" She really wanted to eat all the pancakes in her hand, but thinking of her two sons, she finally secretly hid the unfinished brown sugar egg pancakes, intending to let them taste taste.
