Chapter 1135 Stepfather 46
In the evening, Yuanchun, who was tired after a day's work, went to bed early.
In the middle of the night, 007 suddenly spoke up, "Host, wake up, host, please wake up."
Yuanchun was woken up by it and gnashed her teeth in anger, "007, if you don't have anything important to report, I'll cut your head off and kick it like a ball."
"Host, it's important, very important. Shen Yi is helping you fetch water."
"what?"
"Shen Yi will secretly fetch water for you again."
"He stayed up late at night to fetch water for me?"
Yuanchun was speechless.
She got up from the kang, lit the oil lamp, and just walked out of the room when Shen Yi came into the kitchen carrying a load of water.
Yuanchun chuckled twice, "Shen Yi, can you tell me how you managed to open my door?"
"I used a dagger to push it open." Shen Yi was a little embarrassed. This was the second time in his life that he was caught as a thief. "I felt sorry for you because you were too tired to carry water. I wanted to help you carry some water. I will leave after the water tank is full."
"I'm strong, carrying water is not tiring." Yuanchun almost gritted her teeth and told him, "I don't need you to carry water, go back to sleep."
"In two days the water will be full."
Shen Yi poured the water into the water tank and carried the bucket to leave.
Yuanchun said angrily, "You are not sleeping in the middle of the night and you go to the well to fetch water. Aren't you afraid that someone will see you and think you have seen a ghost?"
"At this time, people are most asleep, and no one sees them."
"As you wish."
Yuanchun was so angry that she was speechless.
She left an oil lamp in the kitchen and went into the room to continue sleeping.
When she woke up in the morning, she saw a full tank of water in the kitchen, and the buckets in the yard were also full of water. Even the firewood that she had scattered in the yard to dry was neatly stacked under the courtyard wall.
"Giggle..."
Suddenly, a hen jumped out of the chicken coop, stretched its neck and clucked in the yard.
Yuanchun walked over curiously and saw a small white egg in the chicken coop, only slightly larger than a pigeon egg.
"Host, your chicken has laid eggs." 007 said happily, "Cook them quickly and give them to me. I want to eat freshly laid eggs."
After her stepfather died, Yuanchun bought six chicks from the captain's wife, but only five survived. The regulations stipulated that a family could only raise three poultry, so during the New Year she slaughtered two roosters for food and kept the three hens for laying eggs.
A few days later, a hen died.
There were only two hens left.
At the beginning of this spring, she bought three more chicks, and now they weigh more than one kilogram.
The chicken that I raised for more than half a year finally laid eggs.
Yuanchun picked up the laid egg, took out another chicken egg from the cupboard, washed the two eggs, threw them into the pot, and put a few handfuls of millet into the pot. When the millet porridge was almost cooked, she made a few wild vegetable cakes and put them in the pot.
The breakfast is simple, millet porridge, wild vegetable cake, and an egg, all in one pot.
I also went to the backyard to pick two cucumbers and made some smashed cucumbers.
There were a lot of vegetables in the backyard, and Yuanchun couldn't eat them all by herself. After dinner, she went to the backyard and picked some vegetables that were about to go old. She blanched some of them and cut some directly and dried them.
When she thought the bell for work would ring soon, she carried a basket on her back and went to the back mountain. When she arrived in front of the Shen family's thatched cottage, Yuanchun threw down a few bundles of vegetables, knocked on the door a few times, and left quickly.
When Shen Yi opened the door, he only saw her receding back and a few bundles of vegetables at the door.
Shen Yi couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips and laughed.
"Ayi, who is it?"
"It's Ah Chun." Shen Yi took the dishes in. "She's here to deliver the dishes."
"It's Ah Chun." Mother Shen ran out, but didn't see anyone. She felt a little disappointed. "Is Ah Chun gone? Why don't you invite her in to sit down with you?"
"Wife, in our situation, it's not a good idea for us to get too close to Comrade Xu." Shen Cheng said.
