Chapter 19 An Egg
Early the next morning.
At dawn, Li Aiguo climbed out of bed.
In this day and age, the birds are almost fading out of my mouth. I have to eat something good today.
Pull off the stopper of the coal stove and sit on the black iron pot. The light blue flames gently lick the black bottom of the pot.
After a while, green smoke came out of the iron pot.
Pick up the oil can and pour some sanitary oil on it.
After the oil is hot, crack off an egg and pour it into it.
Along with a sizzling sound, the rich aroma of eggs suddenly filled the air.
When the eggs turn bright yellow, Li Aiguo shovels out the eggs, puts the cut steamed bun slices into the iron pot, and sprinkles some salt flowers.
Then put the scrambled eggs in, and a large plate of steaming steamed buns with scrambled eggs is ready.
At this time, all the oil at the bottom of the pot has been absorbed by the steamed buns. It is clean and there is no waste at all.
Pick up a pair of chopsticks and put it in your mouth. The steamed buns are soft and the eggs are fragrant. The taste is simply amazing.
This is what Li Aiguo learned from a long-legged and hairy model in his previous life when he was learning foreign languages.
It’s just that Mao Zimei used Dalieba, and Li Aiguo adapted to local conditions and replaced it with steamed bun slices.
The rich scent of eggs slipped out through the crack in the door and instantly filled the entire compound.
Those who have just woken up are all hungry at this time.
The alluring fragrance was like an iron hand, grabbing their intestines and twisting them into a ball.
Hiss. So hungry
Xu Damao’s house next door.
Xu Damao smelled the fragrance, looked at the stick noodle porridge in front of him, and said in a strange way: "What's so great, when I marry Lou Xiao'e, I will eat meat every day." You're going on a blind date with Lou Xiao'e. Please be careful and don't mess around with those little girls. The Lou family may find someone to investigate you. "
"Dad, don't worry, I'm Damao. It’s safe!”
Xu Damao was proud.
Yizhong Haijia.
"Li Aiguo has eaten eggs."
A aunt came in from outside and complained to Yi Zhonghai who was eating: "I didn't agree with you attacking Li Aiguo at the beginning, but now it's okay , instead of getting the house, Silly Pillar was folded in. "
"Who would have thought that a person who was about to die could still survive. "
Yi Zhong was drinking stick noodle porridge by the sea. , and asked: "Silly Zhu hasn't been put back yet. Is the deaf old lady careless or something?"
"Silly Zhu is just like the deaf old lady's grandson, the old lady is sure!"
The aunt sat on the chair and frowned: "The deaf old lady went to the street office and the police station. The street office found no problem. The police station heard that Li Aiguo was the son of a railway employee and wanted to do some research. "
She asked worriedly: "How many years will Silly Zhu be sentenced?"
"That's not possible! The deaf old lady is very capable. Zhu rescued him. "Yi Zhonghai is very confident.
Not long after the public-private partnership was established in the steel rolling mill, many old people still occupied leadership positions. The deaf old lady had a close relationship with these people.
Yi Zhonghai was promoted to level 7 fitter last year. Because his skills were not up to par, it was the deaf old lady who stepped forward and took the route.
After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Auntie stopped saying anything.
It’s just that she felt that this matter would not be good.
Jia family.
Jia Xudong sniffed, and the white-flour steamed bun in his mouth suddenly lost its aroma.
"Mom, I want to eat eggs too."
"Let your wife go back to her parents' house to get it." Mrs. Jia Zhang pursed her lips and glared at Qin Huairu.
In this era, there were no production teams or communes established in rural areas, only temporary mutual aid groups. Temporary mutual aid groups are formed to solve the difficulties of insufficient labor, animal power, and agricultural tools in agricultural production. Several households of farmers temporarily organize themselves to exchange work and help each other during the busy farming season.
After the busy farming season, we will disband.
Farmers have private land, livestock and fruit trees. If they are not sold on the market, it does not constitute a violation of the unified purchase and marketing, and it does not constitute speculation.
It’s just that in these days, people’s stomachs are not full, let alone raising livestock.
The few old hens left in the Qin family have already entered Jia Zhang's belly, and there are no eggs anywhere.
At this moment, Qin Huairu had just gotten married and did not have the courage to quarrel with Jia Zhang, so she could only smile awkwardly.
Jia Zhang is also aware of the situation of the Qin family. The reason why she said that just now is to let Qin Huairu understand her identity.
A little girl from the countryside should be respectful to her parents-in-law.
Seeing Qin Huairu lowering her head and saying nothing, Jia Zhang also lost interest in continuing to scold and brought the topic to Li Aiguo.
"Dongxu, after you finish eating, go to the street office and report Li Aiguo. The money he paid for the eggs must have come from improper sources."
"Yes, yes, Li Aiguo bought it. If you don’t give our Jia family a few pounds of eggs first, this kid should be punished.” Jia Dongxu looked vicious: “Let the comrades from the street office arrest him.”
“Sentence him to ten. For eight years, I will be a bachelor for the rest of my life!" Mrs. Jia Zhang was so excited that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear.
The house was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
At this time, a voice came from the side, and the laughter stopped abruptly.
Qin Huairu said timidly: "What reason should we use to report Li Aiguo? The money he spent to buy eggs should belong to our family."
Jia Zhang:
< br>Jia Dongxu:
After a moment of silence, Mrs. Jia Zhang stood up holding the table and walked into the house.
"My heart seems to hurt a little. I have to lie down for a while. Huai Ru, please remember to wash the dishes and chopsticks later, sweep the floor, and wash the dirty clothes you changed yesterday."
< br>Looking at the pile of dirty clothes in the basin, Qin Huairu wanted to cry but had no tears.
The Yan family.
The Yan family sat in front of the square table.
A bowl of stick noodle porridge is placed in front of everyone. There is a plate in the middle of the table, and a salted egg is placed on the plate.
Yan Jiecheng glanced at the salted eggs, squinted, and then took two sips of the stick noodle porridge.
Just after taking a sip, he raised his head again, wanting to take another look at the salted eggs.
But Yan Bugui stopped him: "Jie Cheng, according to our family's rules, you can only look at five times during a meal, and you have exceeded the number."
"Dad is right. Yes, I'm counting, my brother committed a foul." Yan Jiefang, the class cadre, raised his hand.
"Dad, if I had looked twice more, could I still have missed the eggs?" Yan Jiecheng wanted to cry but had no tears.
“That’s hard to say!” Yan Bugui said with a straight face, “We’ll find out when we eat eggs tomorrow.”
Hearing about eating eggs, Yan Jiecheng, Yan Jiedi suddenly became interested and approached Yan Bugui.
Even the third aunt put down her chopsticks.
Only the class cadre, Yan Jiefang, still sat at the table in an orderly manner.
“We have been looking at this egg for more than half a year, but we never thought we would get it one day.” The third aunt burst into tears.
"Of course, do you think I'm that stingy?"
Yan Bugui turned around and confessed: "Old lady, look for a needle today."
" Needle? "
"Yes, we insert the tip of the needle into the egg every time and lick the needle, so that the egg will be enough for another half a year." Yanbu's small eyes in the tortoise shell frame blinked. Blink?
Third aunt:
Yan Jiecheng:
Yan Jiedi:
Yan Jiefang: Hiccup.
The few of them were silent for a moment and felt relieved.
It's better to lick the needle than to stare at it. At least you can taste the egg.
Satisfied.
At this moment, Yan Bugui's face changed drastically and he exclaimed: "Children, it smells like eggs. Let's squat to the door and take a big breath."
