Bab 34: Steamed Egg
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Su Xueqiang sneered. "You don't have to do anything. She won't have a good ending."
"What's going on?" Chen Guihua asked happily.
"Big brother is dead, Zhou Hengyang has been chased away, and Su Wen and her sisters are at the mercy of others." He had seen his second brother's family's scheming clearly. "In the future, the five large tile-roofed houses will be occupied by other people."
"That won't do," Chen Guihua was so agitated that her plump body shuddered. "The big tile-roofed house belongs to us. We can't let others have it."
"Let me think about it." Of course, Su Xueqiang was envious, but his brain wasn't that exceptional. If he had not found out by chance that the 55 yuan that Wen had given Zhou Hengyang was entirely borrowed from matchmaker Zhao, he would not have thought of it.
This Wen was really bold. She even dared to lend him the 55 yuan.
Su Xueqiang thought for a while and couldn't think of a way to conveniently tell her about Su Wen lending this amount. Chen Guihua's eyes almost popped out of her head.
"How could someone dare to do this? Isn't she afraid of getting caught?"
"Are you stupid? Could this kind of thing be put out in the open? What's the use if there's no evidence!"
"Then how did you know?" Chen Guihua was suspicious.
"I overheard it." Su Xueqiang revealed a cold smile. He was also unhappy with his second brother's family. They had taken all the benefits. Previously, the village lacked an accountant. He could have been the one. In the end, his second brother had snatched it away and he had always been envious.
Chen Guihua was overjoyed. Su Wen was so stupid, what was there to be proud of? She was unaware that she was being betrayed and made use of! However, she couldn't let second brother get all the benefits.

In the afternoon, Su Wen made scallion pancakes and steamed four eggs.
She was very good at steaming eggs. They were smooth, soft, and tender, and tasted delicious. After adding chopped green onion and two drops of oil, the color, smell, and taste were all perfect. The scallion pancake itself had oil and salt added to it, and it was delectable even without eating vegetables.
However, little sister Su ate guiltily.
While holding onto and nibbling at the scallion pancake, she carefully said, "Big sister, is it okay for us to sneakily eat good food at home? Third sister is earning work points and didn't have time to come back for lunch; she only brought cornbread when she left in the morning."
She wanted her third sister to bring more food, but her third sister couldn't bear to.
"Don't worry and just eat! After you're done, send some scallion pancakes to Su Xiu, I've left some in the pot!" Su Wen understood the situation and knew how to deal with it; she would definitely not let her other sisters suffer. However, they still had to eat what they needed to.
They were not poor if they lacked food or clothes, but if they didn't know how to earn money.
"Alright!" When little sister Su heard that she could give Su Xiu scallion pancakes, she grinned happily. But halfway through her smile, she suddenly remembered something and immediately asked, "What about steamed eggs?"
"You can't send steamed eggs. It wouldn't be good if others see it."
"Right!" Little sister Su reacted quickly. "Let's save half for Second and Third sister. We'll eat it when they come back for dinner."
"No need. I'll make it again tonight." Su Wen couldn't help but smile when she thought about how she had almost driven Zhang Chunxiang to her wit's end that day. "We've won a big battle today. Let's eat something nice and celebrate."
Little sister Su smiled like the cat that got the cream. This was the first time in her life that she had seen her second aunt at a disadvantage. In the past, it had always been her family that was being bullied. Second aunt would even secretly pinch her, and it was very painful.
After lunch, Su Wen packed the scallion pancakes into a small basket and filled a pot of water for little sister Su to send over.
She took some money and went to the county.
Now they had the eggs, but she was short of fine flour and sugar. These were both expensive items that ordinary people couldn't afford to eat. If anyone had some, they would use when visiting relatives or would hide it in the cabinet and be reluctant to eat it.
It was just like the peach crisps that the original character had hidden.
The supply and marketing cooperative in town was in short supply and the items could only be bought with tickets.
She was going to try her luck at the county's black market to see if she could buy it. If she couldn't buy them, she could buy some food stamps. The food stamps issued by the county workers would be secretly saved and sold.
