Looking at Mrs. Song, who was timid and afraid of Zhuang Ruman, they didn’t know how to deal with these poached eggs yet.

“Ahhh!” Zhuang Yuanzhong sniffed the fragrance of the poached eggs wafting from the pot, and twitched his nose: “If only we had a way to eat these without daddy seeing…”

“What’s so difficult about that? We eat them first, and by the time dad comes back, we’ll have finished them. He won’t be able to see anything. Would he somehow know we ate the eggs?”

Zhuang Qinghe said nonchalantly.

“What are you talking about? How many eggs are in the basket, your father knows it well.”

Mrs. Song didn’t find Zhuang Qinghe’s plan good. Nowadays, they were making little money and there were many expenses. They wished they could break every coin into two and compare the eggs in the basket, Zhuang Ruman would hate to count twice a day. Not to mention five, even if one was missing, he would notice immediately.

“That’s not hard, we can say a weasel took it at night.”

Zhuang Qinghe shrugged off, “Anyway, the eggs are already in the pot.

Whether we wait for dad to come back and scold us, or we eat now and hide it from him, you decide, mom!”

Mrs. Song gave it thought for a while, finally nodded her head with a firm decision: “Alright, let’s eat first!”

They had suffered a great trauma today, and their spirits had been shaken. It was only eating eggs, what could it hurt?

Mrs. Song realized this, picked up the spoon and started to remove the eggs.

There were five eggs in total. Zhuang Qinghe and Zhuang Yuanzhong got two each, she got one. With a piece of fried pancake, she didn’t bother about it being hot, she started eating with relish.

The eggs were really delicious, soft and smooth, fragrant and sweet…

Zhuang Yuanzhong couldn’t help but squint his eyes in pleasure.

Zhuang Ruman and Zhuang Jingye arrived at Zhuang Qingning’s front gate.

“Qingning.”

The door was open and Zhuang Ruman walked straight into the courtyard, saying, “I came to apologize, just now your aunt…”

“Oh, that woman is really tough. I can’t manage her on a regular basis. She’s been nagging recently to behave properly, but I didn’t expect her to create such a humiliating scene.”

“I’ve scolded her earlier at home, but thinking of the humiliation you’ve suffered, it makes my heart feel uneasy, so I came to visit.”

“These are fresh eggs laid by our hens a couple of days ago. I brought some for you to cook or fry and as a supplement to your diet.”

While speaking, Zhuang Ruman intended to pick some eggs from the bamboo basket.

“You can keep these eggs.” Zhuang Qingning, who just finished washing the dishes, dried her hands with a handkerchief, her face expressionless and tone indifferent.

“Firstly, Qingsui and I don’t need these eggs to supplement our diet. Secondly, I will not accept your so-called apology and I will not forgive this matter.”

“From now on, my family and your family will have no contact, so you don’t need to go to the trouble of trying to repair the relationship. There is also no need to expect any benefits from us.”

Unjustified solicitude often hides ulterior motives.

Being always thoughtful, Zhuang Ruman, who rushed to apologize with a full smiling face, must be up to no good, having ulterior motives.
