Chapter 16 The Cannon Fodder Uncle in the Imperial Examination 3

Early in the morning, I heard a "cluck, cluck" sound outside the door. This should be the sound of my mother getting up to feed the chickens. My two sisters-in-law were also busy in the kitchen.

"System, what time is it now?" Yuhang (from now on, the protagonist will be called Yuhang if he is a man, and Xiaoyu if he is a woman. These names are really difficult to come up with, so I'm explaining it here so that I can be lazy and openly do it in the future.) asked the system.

"It is now the first quarter of the morning, which is about 3:30 in the morning in modern times." The system hurriedly explained in a fawning and obsequious manner. The system did not want to throw away this golden thigh. After all, it did not want to die either.

"Well, then I'll get up too!" Yuhang got up from the bed and put on his clothes.

When Liu Huilian heard the rustling sound coming from her youngest son's room, she knew that he had woken up, so she quickly stood at the window and asked, "Shi Tou, are you awake? Why did you get up so early today? Mother will ask your eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law to steam a bowl of egg custard for you." As she said that, Liu Huilian quickly put away the dustpan in her hand and walked towards the kitchen.

"Big brother, second brother's family, Shitou has woken up, hurry up and steam a few bowls of egg custard for Shitou and the kids." Liu Huilian (from now on, we'll call her Liu, so it's easy to misspell her name) took out six eggs from the room and gave them to the eldest daughter-in-law. "Steam one bowl each for Shitou and the boys, and the girls can share one bowl."

"Okay!" The eldest daughter-in-law Zhang Cui replied, "Mom is so good. You see, there are not many girls in our village who can eat eggs like boys. Our girls are lucky." After saying that, Zhang quickly took the eggs into the kitchen.

At this time, the second sister-in-law Zhu was making multi-grain pancakes. There was hot water boiled in a large iron pot on the small stove at the back, which would be used for washing when the men and children in the family got up.

"Sister-in-law, mother just gave me six eggs and asked us to steam egg custard for my younger brother and a few other children. One bowl for each boy and one bowl for each girl." As she said that, she quickly put the eggs in a large earthen bowl and said, "Look at how many bowls are left. Let's steam the egg custard in the iron pot in the back first. After the pancakes are ready, we can cook some wild vegetable soup." As she said that, Zhang also quickly got to work with her sister-in-law.

"Mom, why did you get up so early?" Yuhang put on his clothes and walked out. His mother was feeding the ducks.

"Oh, hey! Shitou, why are you out too? It's so cold outside, why don't you put on more clothes before you come out?" Liu quickly put down the work in her hands, walked over quickly, and pulled Yuhang to take a closer look.

"It's okay, mom. It's spring now, and it's not cold anymore. I was thinking about going to private school today, so I was so excited that I couldn't sleep."

"Why are you so excited, kid? This private school is right there and it won't run away. What's there to be excited about? Go into the house quickly. I'll ask your two sisters-in-law to steam some egg custard for you. When it's ready, I'll bring it to you inside. It's warm inside." As she said that, Liu pushed Yuhang into the house.

Yuhang walked into the room. There was a heated kang that was 2.8 meters long and 2 meters wide. At the end of the kang were two large boxes that were 1 meter long, 60 meters wide and 80 meters high. The boxes contained some clothes and toys of the original owner. When Yuhang just got up, he put the folded quilt on top of the boxes. There was a desk and a chair by the window. Next to the desk was a one-meter-high cabinet. On the cabinet was a small bookshelf. There were only three books on the bookshelf, namely "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names" and "Thousand Character Classic".
