Chapter 1273: Great Devotion 1
The rain that day was heavy and relentless, not showing any signs of stopping by evening.
Coming out from Wang Xinlai’s house, Wang Fengqiao bustled around with nothing else to do. She counted the eggs at home, had accumulated over a dozen chicken eggs and three goose eggs, and decided to put them all in a basket to give to her niece.
This niece was naturally Feng Qingxue, and not Wang Jiao.
Seeing the room full of elderly people, her expression didn’t change as she greeted them and handed the basket to Feng Qingxue.
She had come to understand that not a single one of the old folks here was simple. In the past, they would have been unapproachable, yet now, out of fear of stirring up trouble and her grandchildren being timid, she wished they could be closer to the elders.
Still, it was better not to come and avoid being a nuisance.
Not everyone is as easy-going and endearing as the Lu family’s children.
Feng Qingxue put down the basket, took a towel to wipe the rainwater off her, and called for Guan Cheng to pour her some brown sugar ginger water, "Look at you, auntie, making a trip here in such heavy rain, getting your clothes wet and catching a cold, how could I live with myself?"
"What farmer hasn’t been caught in the rain? I’m sturdy, I’ll be fine!" Wang Fengqiao said nonchalantly, "Your house has many kids, never mind the older ones, just for the little ones, one egg per child each day—that’s five eggs, fifty in ten days. Even if your chickens laid eggs every day, you wouldn’t have enough. Take these eggs to cook for the kids. I’ll save up some more tomorrow and bring them over."
