- Chapter 19 - Stealing Our Eggs
Lu Sanya stomped her foot. “How could I be that kind of person!”
Just as Lu Da was about to nod, he heard her continue, “What’s the big deal about getting back at her? She deserved it.”
With that, she curled her lips into a sinister smile.
These past two days, during the day the four little ones went to school, Lu Ting went to work and Sheng Fei took Lu Xiaowu to the county to set up a stall. They left early and came back late. Sheng Fei rarely got to say a few words to Lu Ting. In the end, it was just having breakfast together in the morning.
Lu Ting didn’t care about Sheng Fei’s movements. He only cared about the five children.
So what Sheng Fei has been doing during this period, he knows nothing about, and he doesn’t want to know.
Sheng Fei calculated that the money she earned in these few days. After deducting the costs, it was already more than 130 yuan. In just a few days, she has earned more than what Lu Ting earned in a month.
But this is not a long-term business after all. Sheng Fei still needs to think of other ways to make money.
The day before yesterday, Sheng Fei learned that the four little ones had gotten the eggs from somewhere and eaten them. So today she specially bought a basket of eggs to bring back and let them eat their fill.
Tomorrow the four little ones don’t have to go to school, so after dinner in the evening, they took the boiled eggs from Sheng Fei and played around the house.
Lu Xiaowu has recently been earning money with Sheng Fei in the county, and his food hasn’t been lacking at all. Sheng Fei even bought him candied haws to eat in the morning. Now his belly is full, and he was just holding the eggs and playing, not eating them.
Lu Jixiang’s appetite is big. Even if the family is spoiling them, the regular meals and dishes are average. The eggs are usually sold in the county to exchange for money. They are rarely cooked for the children to eat.
Even when Xu Yuxia was in her month of confinement, she only ate two eggs.
So when Lu Jixiang saw Lu Xiaowu holding the eggs, he immediately became greedy. He directly rushed in front of him and snatched it away, “Give it to me.”
Lu Xiaowu’s grip was weak, and he was snatched of the egg by Lu Jixiang and pushed to the ground, crying loudly.
Lu Da and Lu Sanya were the first to notice it. If it was ordinary things being snatched, they were already used to it, but eggs are such precious food. Lu Da absolutely would not allow it to fall into someone else’s hands.
So after Lu Jixiang snatched it, Lu Da held him back. “You give it back to us.”
Lu Jixiang became very angry, “No, I won’t give it to you, all these are mine. My mom said you guys are a bunch of unwanted wild kids, you don’t deserve to eat good things.”
Lu Da was furious, but in the end he still snatched it back.
At this time, Xu Yuxia and Old Mrs. Lu came out.
Seeing the two children fighting over something, Xu Yuxia hurriedly ran to Lu Jixiang’s side. “Are you okay, son?”
She scolded Lu Da fiercely, “Don’t you have a conscience, Jixiang is your cousin.”
Lu Sanya had long since protected Lu Xiaowu behind her. Lu Da retreated a few steps and didn’t back down, “He pushed my fifth brother first.”
Lu Jixiang, seeing the eggs that had flown out of his hands, didn’t care about what Lu Da said. He instead pulled Xu Yuxia’s hand. “Mom, I want to eat eggs, I want to eat eggs.”
Xu Yuxia finally noticed the eggs in Lu Da’s hand, and her eyes darkened. “Where did you get these eggs from?”
After the division of the family, the wild animals were all given to the eldest family. The second family didn’t even raise any chickens and ducks, so how could there be eggs!
“Lu Chen, how dare you steal our family’s eggs? Hurry and return them to us.”
Xu Yuxia said as she was about to reach out and snatch them, but Lu Da stubbornly avoided her. “These are the eggs Auntie bought, not from your family.”
Xu Yuxia sneered, “Her? Where did she get the money? All the good things she has, she hides and eats them herself. She won’t buy them for you, what a big joke.”
