Rebirth of a Little Cannon Fodder

Chapter 31 Egg Incident

"Aunt Xiu'er, I want to exchange for 20 eggs. I don't know if you have that many at home. If you don't have enough, I'll exchange for fewer."

"Yes, yes, yes, auntie has some here. I'll get them for you right away." She went to get the eggs. She had originally wanted to sell the eggs to buy some meat for her family. Having Qiao Zhiqing come to exchange them saved her the trouble of going to the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Mom, didn't I tell you that I needed this egg and asked you to keep it? Why did you exchange it?"

Then I saw an angry girl rushing in and starting yelling at Aunt Xiu'er.

"You silly girl, when did I ever promise you to keep the eggs? I would rather feed these eggs to pigs than let you eat them to an ungrateful wolves."

"Mom, what are you talking about! Brother Heng is not an ungrateful person."

"How can he not be an ungrateful person? You fed him so many good things, but he didn't give you anything in return. I want to keep this egg, but it's definitely another case of throwing meat buns at a dog, which will never come back."

"Mom, Brother Heng, it's not that he didn't give me the things, it's that I didn't want them. How could I have the nerve to ask for his things when he left his hometown to come to our brigade?"

Seeing the girl chattering non-stop on behalf of outsiders, Aunt Xiu'er really didn't know what to say. She and the old man didn't seem particularly stupid, so how could they have given birth to such a simple-minded girl? It was obvious that Zhang Heng was keeping her in suspense. She didn't even realize it.

There are many people at home now, so it is not a good time to scold my daughter. There is no way Sister Xiu'er can do this.

"I, your mother, am the one who makes the decisions in this family. You have no say in this matter. If you want to be the master of your own house, get married first."

Ignoring the girl in front of him, he spoke directly to Qiao Chuchu.

"Don't listen to my daughter's nonsense. I was planning to exchange this egg anyway."

Now Qiao Chuchu, who was forced to watch a mother-daughter fight, didn't know whether she should change the egg or not. She was thinking about forgetting it.

Unexpectedly, just when Qiao Chuchu was thinking, the little girl started to act up again.

"Mom, you are biased towards boys. Don't think I don't know that you want to exchange the eggs for money to replenish my brother's body. I heard everything you said to my father that day. My brother is the only one in your heart. You just despise me because I am a girl."

"I don't care. This egg must be kept today. I promised Brother Heng that I would give him a boiled egg every day during the autumn harvest. I can't go back on my word. This is an opportunity I snatched from several girls. You can't hold me back."

"You, you, what can I say about you? It's obvious that they don't take you seriously and just want to eat and drink for free, and you are so proud of yourself."

"Besides, what's so good about that educated youth? He can't even feed himself with the work points he earns. He calls himself a city dweller, but he's still begging in our countryside. If he really has any backbone, he should earn his own eggs. There's no need for you, a little girl, to take food from your family to feed him."

Aunt Xiu'er was also very disappointed. It was obvious that the educated youth Zhang was just keeping her daughter hanging and taking advantage of her for free food and drinks. Everyone in the brigade knew that she was in contact with girls from several families at the same time. But because there was no substantial evidence, these families could not cause trouble for Zhang because of their daughters' reputations, so they could only keep a close eye on their daughters.

But I am not so good, just like a lard-blinded heart, I won't turn back until I hit the south wall. I am obsessed with others and no matter what I say, I can't make it clear.

Now she still says that she is biased towards boys and only wants to nourish his brother. She doesn't even think about why her brother needs nourishment. It's because she cried and made a fuss about wanting a red scarf. Her brother felt sorry for her and went hunting in the mountains to earn money to buy it for her. He accidentally fell into a trap and his body hasn't recovered yet. The autumn harvest is about to come. What if he doesn't nourish himself and get hurt again?

Thinking of this, Aunt Xiu'er became even more disappointed with her daughter. She looked at her daughter and said, "Yanzi, you only heard that your father and I wanted to nourish your brother. Have you ever thought about why we want to nourish your brother? Have you forgotten who and why your brother was injured?"

"I I I didn't mean that, Yan Zi said softly, Mom I I..."

"Okay, stop talking. This egg lady definitely needs to be replaced. If you have nothing to do, go wash the clothes."

Aunt Xiu'er didn't seem to want to listen to her daughter's nonsense anymore and directly told her to go out and work.

"Qiao Zhiqing, Ma Zhiqing, I'm sorry for making you laugh today. If Qiao Zhiqing still wants to exchange the egg, we can do so. If not, that's fine too."

Most people would definitely feel uncomfortable after seeing their own daughter making such a fuss, so it would be understandable that Qiao Zhiqing refused to exchange the egg.

Seeing Aunt Xiu'er, who was originally happy, become depressed, Aunt Wang felt distressed. It would be a headache for anyone to have a girl like this. All children are enemies.

Yanzi was already a girl living a good life in the brigade. Her family treated her and her brother equally, unlike some other families who favored boys over girls.

"Aunt Xiu'er, I want to exchange this egg." Originally, Qiao Chuchu didn't plan to exchange it, but she didn't want this silly girl to give it to an outsider instead of her family.

She also heard that this educated youth Zhang Heng was just sucking the girl's blood and not having to take responsibility in the name of friendship. He really played his cards well.

It is said that the educated youth are not welcome in the brigade. It is really a bad apple that spoils the whole barrel. Even if some individuals do not do well, the educated youth compound as a whole is bound to be unwelcome. Fortunately, she and Ma Ning moved out.

"Okay, I'll count them out for you right away. Take them."

After Qiao Chuchu exchanged the eggs, the group left. When they reached the intersection, they said goodbye to Aunt Wang.

After the two of them were left, Ma Ning started to complain about Zhang Heng in today's mother-daughter drama.

"Chuchu, Li Zhiqing told me about this Zhang Zhiqing before. I originally thought there might be some misunderstanding, but now it seems that this guy is really shameless. He took advantage of a little girl to eat and drink for free. The key is that he contacted more than one girl. The reputation of our Zhiqing is being ruined by this kind of person."

Ma Ning was also angry. Although she had a good relationship with the aunts in the team now, she had spent a lot of effort to gain their recognition when she first came. She used to think that she was just a newcomer and was not treated well, but she didn't expect that there would be such a thing.
