The poor little girl who traveled through the book, her father was lazy, her mother was stingy, and

Chapter 142 Preserved Eggs and Preserved Eggs

She pointed at the tank in panic, "Oh, the eggs were stolen!"

A full tank of eggs became half a tank.

Li Taohua thought about the silver hidden in the house, wondering if it had also been stolen by the damn thief?

Thinking of this, she was so frightened that she couldn't even walk steadily. "Oh, I'll go check the room."

Lin Xiaoman grabbed Li Taohua.

Seeing Li Taohua's legs go limp, she realized how much harm she had caused to her mother.

It's all her fault for not making it clear in advance. As a family, she can't act alone without telling her family members just because she doesn't know how to explain or it's too troublesome to explain.

Growing up in an orphanage, she kept to herself and was used to making her own decisions.

But it’s different here, they are a family.

She can no longer do what she wants and only care about herself.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoman felt guilty and pulled Li Taohua and said, "Mom, I...it's all my fault. I used chicken and duck eggs to cook. There was no thief in the house!"

After saying that, she quickly glanced at Li Taohua's face and shook her arm coquettishly, "Mom, if there is any, it should be me, the 'egg thief'. Sorry, I forgot to tell you that I plan to make preserved eggs. Chicken eggs and duck eggs can be used. After ten days or half a month, the taste will change."

Li Taohua breathed a sigh of relief, but was a little confused. "Why? I've seen scrambled eggs, beaten eggs, and bad eggs, but also Songhua eggs? What kind of egg is Songhua egg? Can an egg turn into a flower? What kind of flower is Songhua?"

With a series of questions coming up, Lin Xiaoman didn't know where to start.

But she warned herself that she should discuss everything with her family in the future and not just think about herself.

So she hesitated for a moment, "Songhua is not a flower, it's just a kind of egg with a peculiar taste. People who like it will like it very much, and those who don't like it won't even taste it."

Seeing that her mother was not angry, Lin Xiaoman looked at her with a smile and continued, "Mom, I can't explain it clearly at once. Let me take you to see it."

After that, he took Li Taohua into the utility room and pointed to the small jar in the corner. "Mother, the eggs are in the jar. I sealed it with mud. In ten days or so, we can open the jar and see whether the Songhua eggs are successful or not."

"You speak so mysteriously, so are preserved eggs delicious?" It was the first time Li Taohua heard of preserved eggs and was curious from the bottom of her heart.

However, Xiaoman said that it would take more than ten days to know what the preserved eggs looked like. Li Taohua snorted twice, "Xiaoman, if the duck eggs go bad later, you are not allowed to think about it anymore!"

"Okay!" Lin Xiaoman expressed his opinion immediately.

Li Taohua felt heartbroken and angry.

What makes me sad is that if Xiaoman’s preserved eggs fail, all those chicken and duck eggs will be wasted.

There are so many eggs. Even if we can’t sell them, it would be great to give them away as a favor!

I’m curious about how Xiaoman can remember so many things.

If someone has a worse memory, he or she may not be able to remember all the prescriptions that the master told him or her in his or her dream.

Li Taohua tacitly accepted that Xiaoman had all these experiences due to special circumstances, and that the master's dream was the only explanation she could give for the past.

Ten days later, Lin Xiaoman estimated that the time was about right, so he peeled a duck egg in the space and broke it in half. The egg yolk was still runny, so he simply added vinegar and soy sauce as dipping sauce and swallowed half of the preserved egg in one bite.

it is tasty!

It would be even better if I had a bowl of white porridge at this time.

Lin Xiaoman couldn't wait to tell his family the good news.

She left the space and went straight to the utility room.

"Xiaoman, what are you doing? Why are you making so much noise?" Lin Jingzhe saw Xiaoman's wind-like afterimage and hurriedly followed.

Not to mention the two little kids at home.

The four children in the family gathered around Lin Xiaoman’s jar of preserved eggs.

The sealing mud was knocked off bit by bit, and the hay on top was taken out. Lin Xiaoman took out the eggs one by one and put them in a bamboo basket.

Lin Jingzhe looked at the round object wrapped in rice husks and asked, "Is this the Songhua egg you mentioned?"

Lin Xiaoman nodded without stopping the action of his hands. "Preserved eggs can be cooked into porridge or eaten directly with dipping sauce, or eaten cold with tofu. Let's try it later."

Lin Jingzhe watched Xiaoman put all the eggs in the bamboo basket, then took four and stood up, asking them to go to the kitchen.

"Since my parents are not here, I'll ask you to help taste the food!"

Lin Guyu was very excited to hear about the new dishes, and followed Lin Xiaoman in a jumpy manner.

Sister has new dishes!

I wonder if it will taste better than pickled fish?

Or is it more delicious than juicy dumplings?

Lin Xiaoman cracked the egg on the edge of the stove and quickly peeled off the rice husks and dry mud on the surface.

This was the first time Lin Guyu had seen this kind of thing. The eggs were actually wrapped in mud. Could it be that they were going to use mud and eggs to make food?

Lin Guyu tilted his head, puzzled.

If mud and eggs are used to make dishes, will she eat it or not?

While she was thinking, Lin Xiaoman had already peeled the four preserved eggs, and she heard her eldest brother shouting.

"Um...Xiao Man, the preserved eggs you made are bad, they are all black!"

Lin Guyu stood on tiptoe and looked at the table. There were two crystal black eggs and two almost transparent yellow eggs in the ceramic bowl.

this......

Is it an egg?

There are patterns on the surface of the black egg, so strange!

"Sister, how do you eat bad guys?"

Lin Xiaoman took another bowl, added vinegar and sauce, and used chopsticks to cut one of the preserved eggs in half.

The egg yolk is runny and soft, the surface is translucent, and it looks very good. It is no different from the preserved eggs in the space.

She stared at three pairs of curious eyes, picked up the preserved egg, dipped it in the sauce and put it into her mouth.

The taste is rich, delicate and smooth, and Lin Xiaoman's joy is beyond words.

When she wanted to let them have a taste, she was startled by the frightened Lin Jingzhe, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Xiaoman, are you sure the bad eggs are delicious?" The little sister looked like she was enjoying it, but was that black and weird-looking egg really delicious?

"Of course, the black ones are called Songhua eggs, which are made from duck eggs. The yellow ones are called Biandan, which are made from chicken eggs. They taste good, would you like to try them?"

Lin Jingzhe knew that Xiaoman would not lie.

Since she said it was delicious, he decided to give it a try.

Lin Jingzhe moved towards Lin Xiaoman little by little, and it took only a cup of tea to move a small step.

Lin Xiaoman laughed out loud.

She finally understood the constipated expressions on foreigners' faces when they watched them eat preserved eggs.

Look at Lin Jingzhe, he wants to try but is afraid.

Exactly the same.

She didn't force her brother, and turned to Guyu with a smile and asked, "Guyu, can you help me?"

Lin Guyu hesitated for a moment, then quickly nodded, "Okay."

Lin Xiaoman scooped out a small piece, dipped it in sauce, and brought it to Lin Guyu's mouth.

Lin Guyu licked it with his mouth, his eyes lit up, and ate it in one bite.

It tastes good!

It turned out that the elder sister did not lie to her.

"Sister, I want more."

Lin Xiaoman looked at his elder brother with a half-smile, "Brother, you are not as good as Guyu! Come on, I need to sell these eggs, why don't you help me?"
