"Eggs? What eggs?"

"Mom, you forgot, you said you saved fifteen eggs for me."

Old Lady Liu: “…”

Old Lady Liu understood that this little girl had come to ask for eggs.

If she came back alone, she would have scolded and kicked him out. But today she came back with a group of nosy old women. If she scolded Liu Pandi and refused to give her eggs, the villagers might gossip about the Liu family behind their backs.

Old Lady Liu didn't want to take out the eggs, but she also didn't want these old ladies to think she didn't love her daughter, so she forced a smile and said, "I've only been collecting eggs for a few days, so there aren't enough to fill a basket yet. When I have enough eggs, I'll bring them over to you."

"A basket of eggs is very heavy. I can't let you carry it all the way here. I'm back today, so I'll take it back."

Old Lady Liu said, "I, your mother, work hard every day and can even carry sacks. Come on, a basket of eggs is not that heavy. How dare you, child, joke around like that?"

"Mom, the eggs are in the house, right? I'll go get them." Liu Pandi ignored her and went into her parents' house. Normally, no one dared to enter the house of Old Man Liu and Old Lady Liu without their permission, so the cabinet where they stored food was not locked.

When Liu Pandi opened the cupboard, he saw a basket of eggs. He took it out and said, "Mom, I didn't expect you to save so many eggs for me. You are so kind."

The older women who came along also praised her, "Old Lady Liu, it seems your family really loves your daughter. There must be at least thirty eggs in this basket."

"Don't blame your daughter for being so filial to you. You two old people love your daughter so much, it would be strange if she wasn't filial."

The old ladies kept praising Old Lady Liu, and Old Lady Liu couldn't even get angry with Liu Pan.

She could only maintain a smile and said, "As parents, we just want our children to eat well. Now that she's this old and pregnant, she has to eat better."

Old Lady Liu held on to the basket of eggs and refused to let go. "Look, the eggs are heavy. I'll send them home for you tomorrow."

Tomorrow, I'm afraid there won't be any eggs tomorrow. Liu Pandi calmly pried her mother's hands apart and strode out of the Liu family's yard. "Mom, I'm leaving. I'll come to see you tomorrow."

Afraid that her family members would come out to chase the eggs, Liu Pandi walked very fast.

A large basket of eggs was taken away by Liu Pandi. Old woman Liu was heartbroken. She had saved eggs for more than a month and wanted to take them to the supply and marketing cooperative to exchange them for some oil. Her son and grandson wanted to eat them, but she refused. The money-loser came and took away her eggs.

But she couldn't get angry. These old ladies hadn't left yet, and she still had to deal with them. Looking at Liu Pandi's back as he walked away, Old Lady Liu said helplessly,

"I want to see this kid. He came all the way back, but he didn't even eat at home. He just rushed back. Really."

The older ladies who came to watch the fun saw that Mrs. Liu was really willing to give out eggs, and she gave a whole basket at a time, and they all looked at the old couple of the Liu family with admiration.

It seems that the Liu family was not lying and they really love their daughter. They are not the kind of people who cling to their daughter and suck her blood.

Everyone chatted with Old Lady Liu for a while, and then said they wanted to go home for dinner. The Liu family yard suddenly became quiet.

After they left, Liu's eldest daughter-in-law Huang Fengya and second daughter-in-law Chen Ximei ran out.

"Mom, did you really let Liu Pandi take away such a big basket of eggs?"

"Mother, how could you do this? Liu Pandi is like spilled water after she gets married, and you actually saved eggs for her to eat. She doesn't deserve to eat eggs."

Liu Pandi went into her parents-in-law's room to get eggs. They saw it and watched Liu Pandi carry the eggs out of the yard. The two sisters-in-law were as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

These are eggs. They want to eat one but the mother-in-law won't let them. She protects the eggs like her own eyes.

They were not allowed to eat, nor were their husbands and sons allowed to eat. Instead, Liu Pan was asked to look at a married woman who had lost money and come back to get it. The two sisters-in-law were not happy about this and looked at their mother-in-law with resentment.
