Chapter 3: A bowl of egg custard
003 A bowl of egg custard "What's much better." Xia Sang glared at her, but her heart was extremely distressed.
She lost her husband at an early age, had no children and no daughters, and was alone and lonely. It was hard to see her being pitiful, so she picked up this precious granddaughter, and she held the palm of her hand like a treasure every day.
Seeing her becoming more and more beautiful, she didn't expect to be bullied by that stinky girl.
"Hmph, that big girl, you really want to irritate me, you must make the short family look good!" Xia shorty is Xia Daya's father.
Xia Beibei grinned, but did not speak.
Grandma just said that if she really asks someone to quarrel or something, I am afraid she will only be bullied.
"Grandma, what's in that bowl?"
"Yo, I was patronizing and talking, but I forgot." Xia Sang hurriedly brought the broken bowl over.
Xia Beibei looked up, her eyes suddenly became hot, and the bowl was full of egg custard.
This is the only egg from an old hen in the family, but because there is no feeding, it has not laid eggs for several days.
"Grandma, eat it." She knew that grandma hadn't filled her stomach for several days.
In the village, everything that could be eaten was dug up and eaten, even the stalks (corn stalks) were eaten up.
No way, this year, the whole snow was plagued by locusts. The crops in a radius of hundreds of miles were eaten up by the locusts, leaving only the stalks.
The current fields are full of locusts, and there are not a few leaves to be seen. The villagers rely on digging the roots and shaving the bark to feed their hunger.
"What did you say, your head was smashed, and so much blood was poured out, how can you not eat something to replenish your body?" Xia Sang gave her a stern look, and put the bowl firmly into her hand. .
"Grandma is in good health and can't eat eggs."
"Grandma, this... why don't you eat with me?" Xia Beibei looked down at the bowl in her hand, looked up at her and said.
"You kid, hurry up and eat the eggs. Grandma has to go out to dig the roots." Saying that, Xia Sang stood up, turned around and went out the door.
Xia Beibei also stood up, put the egg custard on the table, walked to the door of the room, and watched Xia Sang's cane, carrying a vegetable basket, was about to go out.
"Grandma, wait a minute." Xia Beibei hurriedly stopped her.
"Juniang, what else is going on?" Xia Sang stomped and turned to look at her.
"Grandma, don't go, there's nothing to dig nearby, so you have to go down to the foot of the mountain." Xia Beibei supported her and wanted to take down the vegetable basket in her hand.
"Your legs and feet are inconvenient, go to Jiuniang tomorrow."
"What are you doing? That stinky girl, Da Ya, catches you on the road every day." Xia Sang sighed and snatched the vegetable basket.
After all, it's all because of her incompetence as a grandmother who can't even cure a little girl who bullied her granddaughter.
"Grandma, come here, put the basket down first, Jiuniang wants to tell you something." Xia Beibei first took the basket out of grandma's hands and put it on the ground before helping her back to her room .
Xia Sang sat on the broken stool and looked up at Xia Beibei, "Juniang, what's the matter with you?"
"Grandma, there is a small pond not far behind our house?" Xia Beibei asked.
