Chapter 9 Luck
Mu Yu was pretty lucky. When they were about to go home, they suddenly found a nest of white things. He shouted excitedly: "Sister-in-law, eggs... eggs!"
The two little guys, Tong Baoshu and Mu Xue, ran over in a hurry, and their surprise was beyond words.
Mu Xue's soft and soft voice sounded: "It's so small, it must be a bird egg."
Tong Baoshu was extremely envious: "Xiao, what's the matter? There are so many key numbers! One, two, three... Wow! There are thirteen in total!"
Zhang Wei smiled and praised: "You're lucky, these are quail eggs."
Mu Yu clapped his fingers and said in surprise: "Including the wild eggs that sister-in-law picked up just now, we have a total of twenty-seven eggs!"
"Domestic eggs can be sold for three cents. I heard that these quail eggs cost three cents per cent, so..." Tong Baoshu scratched his head and couldn't figure it out for a long time.
Mu Yu thought for a moment and said in surprise: "Forty-six yuan, there is still one quail egg left!"
Zhang Wei was surprised. She didn't expect that this kid was so young, but had such strong mental arithmetic ability, which was worth cultivating.
"Wow..." The three little guys almost jumped up with joy.
Zhang Wei said: "Okay, let's go back quickly."
Mu Yu added: "Sister-in-law, Brother Baoshu, little sister, you must keep it a secret! Otherwise, the wild eggs and quail eggs will definitely be snatched away by grandma."
Tong Baoshu patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I won't tell you!"
Mu Xue also nodded repeatedly, covered her mouth and said, "I won't say either."
Zhang Wei smiled and said: "You little brat, you are quite clever."
The more sensible Zhang Wei becomes, the more she feels sorry for them. How old are they? There are so many things to consider, hey...
The harvest was quite good, so we kept laughing along the way.
When she got home, smoke was already coming out of the kitchen, and Zhang Wei was singing about the empty city plan.
Zhang Wei did not go home first, but went to Tong's house first. She had to get rid of what she had harvested today. Although Zhang Wei was not afraid of those people from the Mu family, it was always embarrassing to make a noise just for some food.
Mu Yu and Mu Xue couldn't wait to share their joy with Mu Feng and Mu Yun. Zhang Wei and Tong Baoshu walked into the inner room of Tong's house and winked at Aunt Hong several times. Aunt Hong understood and hurriedly followed them.
Zhang Wei took out the wild eggs and quail eggs. After being surprised, she suddenly smiled: "Xiaowei, this... you are so lucky! One, two, three... twenty-seven eggs!"
"Auntie, you can eat these bamboo shoots after you peel them, chop them and stir-fry them in oil. If conditions permit, fry them with eggs. If you can't finish them, blanch the bamboo shoots in water and then dry them in the sun. You can eat them in winter.
That's okay." Zhang Wei said: "In addition, Baoshu picked this up when he took us to pick bamboo shoots, and these four wild eggs are Baoshu's share..."
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no", "You guys picked up things, how can we ask for them? Besides, in your day and age... you should quickly put them away and take them back."
"Without the treasure tree, we wouldn't be able to bring about our good luck! Besides... with our family's current situation, this thing would still trouble you!"
Madam Hong lowered her voice and asked, "Do you want me to take it to you and sell it?"
Zhang Wei nodded: "Those two brats don't even know what eggs taste like. I want to boil all these quail eggs at your house. Then I'll give Baoshu two to eat, and Mu Feng and his brother and sister will share the rest.
You helped me sell the wild eggs."
I heard that Mu Yu and Mu Xue didn't even know what eggs tasted like. Aunt Hong felt distressed for a while. A child without a father and a mother is really pitiful!
"Don't cook them all. You are having a hard time at the moment. Don't expect anything from the rest of the Mu family. Save a few of these quail eggs for making soup. You can all have a few bites. I will be leaving for the city in the next two days.
Selling eggs, just take them and sell them."
There are thirteen quail eggs in total. They are so big. Can you see the egg blossoms in the soup? Zhang Wei: "..."
Well! There is no shortage of people in this era, but there is a shortage of food and money.
After coming out of Tong's house, the old Mu's meal happened to be ready, and it was made by Mu Qing. Let's save the egg drop soup for tomorrow...
When they saw Zhang Wei, no one in the old Mu family looked good. Mu Qingnian and his wife probably got beaten today. Although their faces were not good-looking, they didn't say any unnecessary nonsense.
Probably because of the two nests of eggs, Mu Yun was in a good mood. When he saw Zhang Wei at the door of the kitchen, he shouted happily: "Sister-in-law."
"Well, you must be hungry! Eat quickly." Zhang Wei replied.
Zhang Wei excitedly walked to the stove and opened the lid of the pot. What was inside was just some sparse wild vegetable paste, which was no different from pig food. As a doctor with a good family background in the 25th century who was not short of money, Zhang Wei had never had any problems with food, clothing, housing and transportation.
She treated herself badly, so when she saw this pig food-like thing, Zhang Wei instantly lost her appetite.
But if she didn't eat this and had nothing else to eat, her stomach was now flat, so she had no choice but to accept her fate, filled a bowl of wild vegetable paste with a bitter taste, and drank it almost with her eyes closed.
The meal was quite peaceful. Zhang Wei thought that she had calmed the people down by showing off her power before, so they were honest. However, she soon discovered that she was overthinking.
