Chapter 216 The First Festival

But there were a hundred of them, and after boiling another 30 salted eggs, Bai Meixi went out to tinker with other things after covering the pot.

Cheng Haiwen was a little curious and followed him out after setting the fire, "Sister-in-law, what else are you doing?"

Just now I saw Bai Meixi carrying a basin of eggs out. Since they are boiled eggs, why not put them all in the pot?

"Your third sister-in-law said that she wants to boil some tea eggs for everyone to try." Cheng's mother sat aside and stacked the pots together, while the elder sister-in-law did the cleaning work.

"Tea eggs? Are they the kind of tea eggs sold in the county? Sister-in-law, you can make tea eggs."

Cheng Haiwen had never eaten it once, but when he was in school, he heard from other classmates that city people would eat tea eggs, a steamed bun, and a bowl of porridge in the morning.But they don't have such a blessing. Today I heard that Bai Meixi is going to make tea eggs. I'm so happy.

Dabao didn’t know what tea eggs were, but seeing how happy his uncle was, he also walked over, and Dabao also squatted next to Dabao.

Bai Meixi set up the pot, put some tea leaves, poured some soy sauce, and then put the eggs in and boiled them.After boiling the pot for a few minutes, use a small spoon to crack the eggs.

Turning to look at the curious Cheng Haiwen, "Is the fire in the house still burning? Don't forget to light the fire after you came out."

After hearing Bai Meixi's reminder, Cheng Haiwen let out an ouch and hurried into the house.Seeing my sister-in-law squatting by the stove to light the fire, she said, "I'm sorry, I was just watching my sister-in-law cooking tea eggs outside, and I forgot about this."

"Go ahead, you kids are curious, I'll do the work."

In more than an hour, the aroma of rice dumplings has spread from the house.Dabao was already squatting at the door, salivating, and Da Niu also smelled the fragrance.

The eggs were already cooked. Bai Meixi peeled two eggs and gave them to them, then glanced at Da Niu. "You can go and give some rice dumplings and eggs to Yao Jiusheng later, and let him try them too."

"These things were all bought by our family, why should we give them to her?" When my sister-in-law came back from school, she happened to hear Bai Meixi's words, and her face was not angry.I don't understand why Bai Meixi is so kind to Yao Jiusheng?
Everyone in the village avoided him, so she went to catch him up, taught him how to read and write, and gave him things.A few days ago, he asked his eldest brother to help him repair his house.

"Yes, my little sister is right. These things in our house were not brought by the strong wind. Why should he let him eat and drink for free?"

The second sister-in-law has already smelled the fragrance. If it hadn't been ripe yet, she would definitely look for a chance to try the rice dumplings.Especially the meat rice dumplings, she had never eaten them before and wanted to know what the meat in the rice dumplings tasted like.

"Yao Jiusheng is all alone. It's just that if one person eats one less bite, he will eat it. Why should he care about it so much?"

The second brother couldn't stand what his wife said.Yao Jiusheng's child is not bad now that he has been exposed to it for a long time.If you can help me, I will help you. After all, it is still a life and a village.

"As long as you are generous, as long as you are generous, you will be the most generous in the whole family." After saying that, he rolled his eyes and went back to his room.

When Cheng's mother saw her like that, she didn't say anything. This daughter-in-law just didn't get married for three days.The second child still indulged her in every possible way. The mother-in-law usually scolded her, but the second child knew how to restrain herself.Today is the holiday, I hope it will be peaceful and nothing will happen.When a large pot of rice dumplings, eggs, and tea eggs were placed on the table, the whole family excitedly began to peel the rice dumplings.Bai Meixi fried a few more vegetables, and after the big girl finished eating, she packed two meat rice dumplings, two sweet rice dumplings, and two eggs and asked the big girl to deliver them to Yao Jiusheng.

The child was all alone, and we couldn't keep him at home, so we had to give him some things.

The big girl jumped out of the house carrying those things, while the adults in the yard were chatting and laughing, eating the food on the table, not to mention how happy they were.

It is estimated that no one in the entire Yao Village is as happy as them.Bai Meixi's craftsmanship is good. It was the first time for Chengfu and the others to eat meat rice dumplings. He glanced at Bai Meixi and said, "It really tastes different when it's wrapped in meat."

They are used to eating sweet rice dumplings, but this time they had salty ones, which tasted very special and were really delicious.

"It must be delicious if there's meat in it. It costs a lot of money." The second brother silently scolded her, wondering if she could stop talking nonsense when the atmosphere was so good.

This is the first festival that Bai Meixi has celebrated after coming here. Although it is a little unpleasant, everyone is sitting together and feeling very happy.

It's just that the person she loves the most is missing here. I wonder if Cheng Haiyi can also eat such delicious rice dumplings in the army.Are you missing each other as much as she is at this time?
In the canteen of the , I’ll give you the egg.”

During the holidays, the cafeteria will prepare some festive items.Of course, rice dumplings and eggs are given out during the Dragon Boat Festival, but seeing the deputy company commander standing there for a long time without any intention of picking up the rice dumplings, the little soldier thought he didn't want to eat them.

"If you want to eat, I'll give it to you. I don't want any eggs either." He was not in the mood to eat right now. He didn't know how Bai Meixi and his mother were doing at home.

Do you eat well during the festival? Do you eat meat? Do you have enough money at home?I wonder if I still have 15 yuan left as pocket money for a month. If the share for my family is too small, they will not have enough to eat.

I'm also worried that Bai Meixi will be bullied because of her second sister-in-law's personality.During the festive season, Cheng Haiyi misses his family members very much.

"Your deputy company commander misses his new sister-in-law. She came back not long after the wedding. It will probably take a long time until she returns next time."

After hearing the company commander's words, the little soldier finally understood. "The feeling is that I miss my sister-in-law. Those of us who don't have women don't understand what it feels like."

After the company commander said this, the people next to him burst into laughter.Cheng Haiyi lowered his head and had no intention of joking with them.It's not that he can't joke, it's just that he really misses Bai Meixi too much now.

"You can't go back, but you can ask her to come over. Write her a letter and come here to see you."

The company commander's words were like enlightenment. Cheng Haiyi immediately realized that his family leave had ended, but Bai Meixi could come over.
