"Stealing my mouth? What could they do? Nonsense."
Qin Huairu was taken aback when she heard that. She clearly didn't believe it. Who would give her food for free?
"Heh, don't you believe me. When I came back just now, I didn't know where he got a chicken. It's called Beggar's Chicken. It's quite delicious and he's sharing it with his two sisters. Alright, I'll go back first."
He Yunong had a good nose and smelled the chicken. It must be that his brother's chicken was already stewed.
He Yuzhu's cooking skills would be the standard of a star chef even fifty years later.
……
Most of the households in the courtyard were workers of the Red Star Rolling Mill.
One could tell how they were doing from their clothes.
Take Xu Damao for example. He was a little intellectual. He had gotten a job as a film projectionist. When he had nothing to do, he would play movies in the factory and then in the countryside. As long as he was an official, he would be able to say a few words. It made him feel that his status was much higher than others. When he walked, his eyes were on his forehead.
Although the pants weren't very good, the clothes weren't bad. At least, he looked a little like a leader. With a handbag in his hand, he looked much taller.
As soon as he entered the house, he quickly looked at the chicken in the chicken cage in the courtyard. This was the treasure of the family now, the laying hen.
If he took good care of it, it would not be a problem for him to eat two eggs in three days.
"Ah, where's my chicken?" Xu Damao came back and bent over to take a look. There was only one chicken left in the chicken coop. He quickly shouted into the house,"E'zi, why is there only one chicken left in the cage?”
"What? Chicken shame? I'm dizzy today. I've been lying on the bed and haven't gone out.”
Lou Xiao'e heard Xu Damao's roar and hurriedly ran out. She was wearing a woolen coat, which cost a lot of money now.
The couple had no children and had plenty of money to spend.
"There were clearly two of them, but there's only one left.”
"I thought you gave it away.”
"Why would I give it to someone? I'm not asking for help. This was given to me by the community when I went to the countryside to deliver movies. I thought that if I took good care of it, I wouldn't have to worry about eggs.”
"Did he run away? This chicken is quite big.”
"Alright, let's go to the various courtyards to look for him. If he's caught by some brat, he might be stewed and eaten. Quick, quick, let's go look for him.”
Lou Xiao'e replied with a sigh and ran out.
Xu Damao followed closely behind.
Not long after he ran out of the courtyard, Xu Damao's nose twitched.
This smell was a little fragrant. Why did it smell like the chicken he had eaten in the factory canteen before?
"Who's stewing chicken? I'll go and have a taste. My…no, my chicken.”
Xu Damao suddenly reacted and followed the smell. After a few steps, he was even more certain that the chicken was stewed.
Because they were almost at He Yunong's house. This kid didn't do proper business and dared to steal a chicken.
He opened the thick curtain and walked in step by step.
He looked at the chicken that was stewing on the fire. He Yunong was stirring the soup.
He Yuzhu had said that it would taste better if he poured the soup on it while stewing.
Delicacies also needed to be cooked carefully.
Xu Damao walked in. His eyes did not look anywhere else. He stared blankly at the chicken in the pot. His breathing became heavier and heavier, and he was getting closer and closer to the pot.
"Hey, Xu Damao, your nose is not bad. Did you borrow it from a dog? You came here after smelling the fragrance. Stay away. Be careful not to drool. I'll reward you with a bowl of soup when it's stewed.”
He Yunong stretched the spoon that was used to scoop the soup forward, blocking Xu Damao who was still approaching.
"You're the one with the dog nose. Let me ask you, where did you get this chicken? Did you steal my chicken?"
Xu Damao pushed the spoon away and pointed at He Yunong with his index finger. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he was very angry.
"Hey, Xu Damao, I say, you have a mouth that doesn't speak human language, right? What do you mean by I stole your chicken? When did your family have a chicken? It's fine if I give you a bowl of chicken soup, but you want to extort me for a pot of chicken!”
He Yunong also glared at Xu Damao and slapped his finger to the side with a spoon as he roared.
"I just brought back two chickens two days ago. They were waiting in the chicken coop to lay eggs. They were gone as soon as I went back.”
"Heh, even if you have a chicken at home, what does it have to do with me if you lose it? You're not allowed to eat chicken.”
"I couldn't bear to eat it, but you stole it and stewed it.”
"What, you mean this chicken belongs to you? Call it and see if it agrees. If it agrees, it's yours…"
"You…"
At this moment, a person ran in from outside, lifted the curtain, and ran in.
"What happened?"
Lou Xiao'e saw Xu Damao and He Yunong arguing and quickly ran forward to ask.
"E'zi, look, come and see, what is this?”
Xu Damao pulled Lou Xiao'e over and took the spoon from He Yunong's hand to stir the pot.
Lou Xiao'e came over and chopped the chicken head. She understood at a glance. She looked up and said," He Yunong, why are you so greedy? This is our laying hen. If you want to eat it, you can spend money to buy it. You can't steal it. It's not like you can't afford it."”
