Chapter 176 - 176: Make Do with Eggs when



Translator: 549690339

Fang Hong watched as Qin Xue ran away and followed her.

The two of them came back to the clothing store, chatting and laughing.

Inside the store, Fang Xiu was making clothes while little Jingtao was playing with his fingers on a mat on the ground.

Yu Xiu must be watching the shop at the other side!

Qin Xue greeted Fang Xiu and then squatted down to pick up little Jingtao!

“Fang Xiu, have you guys eaten yet?” Qin Xue hurried back to mail a letter and hadn’t eaten in the factory. Now, she was getting a little hungry.

“Not yet, we haven’t cooked. I was just about to finish this little bit of work and then carry Taotao to go cook.

Did you guys come back so quickly because you haven’t eaten yet?

Wait a moment, I’ll finish this bit and then go cook.” Fang Xiu thought that Qin Xue, a pregnant woman with a big belly, must be getting hungrier quickly. It was almost six o’clock now, and she hadn’t eaten yet.

“No, I haven’t eaten. I was going to mail a letter, but I didn’t know when the post office opened and closed.

As a result, I left the factory without eating and only found out from Fang Hong that I was late.

So, I didn’t get to mail the letter or eat. I’m really hungry now.

You go on making clothes. I’ll put Taotao on the mat. Just keep an eye on him!” Qin Xue put little Jingtao on the mat.

She touched his face with her finger and smiled, saying: “Taotao, wait for your auntie! I’ll go steam an egg for you.”

Little Jingtao also seemed to know that Qin Xue was talking to him, waving his arms and legs while babbling. Unfortunately, Qin Xue couldn’t understand his language!

Qin Xue put her backpack on the bed. When she came to the kitchen, Fang Hong was already cooking.

Qin Xue looked at the simple dishes: only cabbage, celery, and two white radishes.

Qin Xue picked the celery leaves to keep for later, planning to make a celery leaf and egg soup.

There wasn’t even any meat. Did they usually eat like this?

How could they not eat any meat or greasy food when they have a child?

“Hong, why don’t you cook an egg for Jingtao? Do you guys eat like this when I’m not here?

There isn’t even any meat. How do you all manage?” Qin Xue, a doctor, knew that a balanced diet was the key to a healthy body.

“Well, I’m steaming one now! We get busy sometimes and just don’t buy meat.

We just make do with what we have.” Fang Hong thought, where could they afford to eat meat every day?

Not to mention the issue of money, even getting the ration coupons isn’t easy.

Only people like Qin Xue who don’t understand the hardships of the mortal world would think of eating meat every day.

However, Fang Hong could understand that with Qin Xue’s ability, she could afford to eat meat daily, even in every meal.

“Is it really like that? Or did you just not buy it because you didn’t want to spend the money?” Qin Xue looked at Fang Hong suspiciously!

“It’s just that. I’m not lying to you. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Yu Xiu and the others later.

See if I’m lying to you!” Fang Hong thought that even if they asked the others, they would all have the same opinion!

Everyone had suffered hardships, and they couldn’t bear to spend so much money on meat. They only bought a little every now and then as a treat! Qin Xue decided to believe Fang Hong since she said it so earnestly.

The meal was prepared with laughter and chatter!

After the dishes were brought to the table, Yu Xiu was called over to eat.

Little Jingtao sat on his mother’s lam holding onto her legs. Nowadays, he always liked to grab chopsticks while eating.

Qin Xue thought she should find someone to make a walker for him, otherwise, it would be difficult to manage him.

Qin Xue filled a bowl of celery leaf and egg soup for everyone.

She scooped some egg into each bowl, knowing this era was scarce in clothing and food!

Clothes could be patched and worn, but if nutrition couldn’t keep up, the body would collapse.

So, during cooking, Qin Xue asked Fang Hong to beat a couple more eggs since there was no meat!

Eggs in this age were also a valuable item; it was almost impossible to eat as much as one desired.

Because buying eggs also required ration coupons, it seemed that she might need to go to the black market later.

She was saving the eggs in her space for Chu Molin to nourish his body. She would only take them out occasionally and not often.

So, they should still buy eggs at the market..
