Chapter 179 I'm Not Zhaodi, I'm Miedi 2
Xu Ning cooked some rice porridge and steamed some vegetable buns.
Mrs. Xu snatched the spoon from her hand and served the rice first.
Along the wall of the pot, she scooped out all the rice grains in the rice soup and put them into two bowls, then brought the freshly-cooked vegetable steamed buns to the dining table.
At the dinner table, Old Man Xu and Xu Yaozu had already become impatient waiting. Xu Yaozu, who was only six years old, was fatter than a piglet. He was full of fat, and his strong arms slapped the table from time to time. He shouted:
"Mom, hurry up, I'm starving!"
"Here it is." Mrs. Xu placed the thick rice porridge in front of them with a smile, and took out an egg from her pocket and stuffed it into Xu Yaozu's hand:
"Yaozu, eat quickly. Eating eggs will help you grow taller."
Xu Yaozu frowned and ordered her: "Peel it for me."
"Okay, okay, mommy will peel it for you."
This is a warm picture of a family of three, and no one cares about the daughters who have not eaten yet.
Xiao Yaodi smacked her fingers and looked at the egg in her brother's hand with a look of longing.
Xu Ning touched her head and pulled her back to the kitchen.
They were not qualified to sit at the table for dinner. Even Old Lady Xu was only allowed to sit at the table after she gave birth to Yaozu.
Although it is extremely normal to favor boys over girls in this era, their family is the only one in the village that favors boys over girls.
After all, it is someone else's family's business. Even if the villagers feel sorry for the four sisters, they cannot interfere too much.
Xu Ning picked up the spoon and scooped two bowls of rice soup. The soup was clear and watery, without a single grain of rice.
Even so, Xiao Yaodi drank it with great satisfaction. After drinking it, she did not forget to lick the corners of her lips as if she was savoring the aroma of rice.
"Drink slowly, there's no rush. I'll serve you more after you finish drinking."
But little Yaodi put down the bowl and said, "Big sister, I don't want any more. If Yaodi wants to drink, the sisters will drink less."
The other two sisters also like to drink rice soup like Yaodi.
Xu Ning felt increasingly bitter in his heart.
She glanced at the three people outside and took out two vegetable steamed buns from her pocket.
"Be good and eat your vegetable steamed bun."
She had secretly hidden these before Old Lady Xu came over, but there were only these two.
Xiao Yaodi's eyes were full of surprise, but she only broke off a small piece and put it in her mouth, with a soft smile on her yellow and thin face:
"The rest will be given to my sisters."
Thinking of his sister who went up the mountain to cut grass early in the morning, Xu Ning thought about it and decided to put the money back into his pocket.
Not long after, the two sisters came back.
The thin girls were carrying two full baskets of grass on their backs. When they entered the house, the three people at the dining table didn't even glance at them.
Xu Ning and Xiao Yaodi ran over and stretched out their arms to help them, served them some soup, and stuffed the remaining vegetable steamed buns into their hands.
"Big sister, this is..."
Xu Pandi held the vegetable steamed bun in her hand, her eyes shining.
Xu Ning blinked at her and whispered, "I took this secretly, and my parents don't know."
"Eat quickly before they find out."
Xu Mengdi: "Big sister, have you and little sister eaten yet?"
"I've eaten, and my elder sister... um." Xu Ning covered Yaodi's mouth and nodded:
"I've eaten too, you guys should eat now."
"Yeah." The two sisters nodded vigorously, looked around carefully, and almost wolfed the food down.
Not long after dinner, there was a knock on the wooden door.
Xu Pandi ran to open the door. Outside the door was the village aunt, who was also a famous matchmaker in the surrounding villages.
She glanced around the yard and said with a smile, "Oh, they're all here. I'm just in time."
Mrs. Xu came forward with a smile:
"Come in, come in, but is there good news?"
