Chapter 16
Mu Qingwen turned his eyes to stare at him, and said like a little adult with his waist in his arms: "You can bear the hunger, there is no food at home."

Qingxi ignored Mu Qingwen, and stared at Mu Qingyi with a pair of bright eyes, "Hungry!"

Mu Qingyi laughed, and rubbed Qingwen's head, "Let's eat when we're hungry, don't hold back." This little guy is so sensible at such a young age, and his sensibleness made her feel sad.

"But our family—" He stopped talking, thinking of the white porridge and egg pancakes he ate at midnight last night.There was obviously no food at home yesterday, let alone eggs and fine noodles.

Mu Qingyi didn't explain, and walked straight to the backyard, "Qingxi is here to light the fire."

Qingxi, who was sitting under the window, responded naturally, "Oh." Then he got up and followed.

Qingwen also wanted to follow, but the sister-in-law ordered without looking back: "Qingwen stays in the yard, and if you see someone from the yamen coming, come and tell me."

Qingwen could only retreat back, pouted her little mouth, thinking why Qingxi wasn't allowed to stay in the yard, he would set the fire too!

When Mu Qingyi walked into the kitchen, she quietly took out a bowl of flour and a handful of vegetables, pretending to have taken them out from behind the woodpile, and handed the vegetables to Qingxi, "Wash it."

Qingxi took it, staring at the vegetables in his hand in a daze.

"Won't?"

Qingxi shook her head.He doesn't seem to be very good at doing this kind of thing, and he can't figure out how to do it at all.

Mu Qingyi glanced at his tattered clothes, but he could still see that the clothes were of excellent material. He seemed to be a rich man who had never worked.

"I'll teach you." If you don't know how to learn, with her, there is no distinction between high and low.To eat, you have to do things, even if you only have one hand left.

Qingxi followed her out of the kitchen, watched her do it once, and learned how to do it herself.Although it is inconvenient to do things with one hand, washing vegetables is not difficult, and I quickly become proficient.

Mu Qingyi looked at it for a while, then went back to the kitchen to make batter, waited for Qingxi to wash the vegetables, chopped them up, then mixed them with the batter, added some salt, and made a big bowl of vegetable batter.

Brush some oil in the pan, and bake them into fragrant and soft vegetable pancakes.Then use the remaining vegetables and add two eggs to cook a pot of vegetable and egg drop soup.

Qingwen in the yard was already drooling so much, her stomach growled louder and louder, thinking about what delicious food her sister was cooking, why did she smell so good.

At the same time, he was puzzled, obviously he didn't find anything in the kitchen, not even a grain of rice, what did my sister cook?
"Qingwen, come over for dinner." Mu Qingyi called out.

Qingwen hurriedly responded, "Come here." When he left, he didn't forget to look at the other side of the village, and there was no one in sight, so he ran to the backyard.

The house was in a mess, and my sister wouldn't let me clean it up, so they could only eat in the dilapidated kitchen.

"Sister, what kind of pancakes are these?" Qingwen took a bite, and it was fragrant and soft, delicious.

"Vegetable pancakes, what's so delicious about them? In the future, my sister will make meat pancakes for you. That will be delicious." Mu Qingyi added a bowl of soup for him, "Eat slowly, don't choke."

The warm vegetable pancakes and warm egg soup made Qingwen cry so much.

Ever since his father passed away, he and his sister haven't had a full meal.

"Sister, I miss Dad."

After all, he was still a child, tears flowed as he said, but it didn't delay him from eating.

After all, Qingxi on the side was serious about eating, if he ate a little slower, the plate would be empty.

Mu Qingyi didn't know how to comfort him, not only did he miss her father, she also missed her.

After eating and drinking enough, Mu Qingyi sent Qingwen to continue guarding in the courtyard. She washed the pots and bowls and restored the kitchen.

Just as he was washing his hands after finishing his work, Mu Qingwen suddenly ran over, "Sister, here we come."

Mu Qingyi flicked the drops of water from her hand, but couldn't find a clean towel. "How many people are here?"
