Chapter 139： Have some backbone

Chapter 139 A bit of backbone

The buns were quickly wrapped and placed on the pot steak. After waking up, Su Mulan went to grab two cucumbers and picked two tomatoes. At noon, she was going to pat the cucumbers and make tomato and egg soup.

Bai Qingzao looked at Su Mulan busy and slapped his head suddenly, "I have to go home quickly to help eldest sister cook."

If her parents find out that she sneaked out to play, they will probably scold her again.

"Okay." Bai Zhuye nodded, took the shuttlecock and sent Bai Qingzao out, "Then you can come and play with me another day."

"Okay." Bai Qingzao agreed and ran home.

When we got home, Bai Taozhi had already gone to the wheat straw chopper to pull out the wheat straw.

"Sister." Seeing that there was no one in the yard, Bai Qingzao quickly slipped into the kitchen, "My parents didn't look for me just now."

"Look, I asked you to go pick some beans in the vegetable field and bring them back." Bai Taozhi took a flint to make a fire there and said, "I just went to pick beans and came back. When my mother asked about it, she said I would go I'm looking for you, you came back with me."

"Yes." Bai Qingzao took Bai Taozhi's arm affectionately, "I understand, eldest sister."

 Bai Taozhi is fourteen years old, but her arms are as thin as bamboo poles.

"By the way, eldest sister." Bai Qingzao took out the glutinous rice sticks that he had held for a long time, "I went to play with Zhuye. Zhuye gave me glutinous rice sticks to eat. I was a bit greedy and ate several of them, leaving the rest Bring this back to eldest sister."

The glutinous rice sticks have been held in the palm of the hand for a long time, and the powdered sugar on them has long melted. Mixed with the glutinous rice flour, the white glutinous rice sticks in the palm of the hand are a little white and sticky.

"You can eat it, I won't." Bai Taozhi looked at the glutinous rice sticks for a while, then looked away with some difficulty, "I don't like sweet things."

Although Bai Qingzao was young, she understood that Bai Taozhi said this to let her eat it, so she stuffed it into Bai Taozhi's hand and said, "Sister, eat it. These glutinous rice sticks are delicious."

"Sister, don't feel bad for me. Just eat these glutinous rice sticks quickly. I think Zhuye's stepmother treats her very well. She makes steamed meat buns at noon and makes snacks for them. Zhuye is living a good life. I guess there will be more to eat in the future. When I go to play with bamboo leaves, I will definitely be able to eat..."

"Qingzao!" Bai Taozhi frowned and interrupted Bai Qingzao, "How many times have I told you that what other people have is their business. There is no need to share what others eat with you, and neither can you. Remember, when you go to someone else’s house, you can’t ask for anything, you have to have some backbone, you know!”

Bai Qingzao was scolded, her face turned red, her head drooped, and after a while she whispered, "I remember."

"It's best to remember." Bai Taozhi was still angry, but looking at Bai Qingzao's dark and thin appearance, he felt bad in his heart.

The life at home is average, but even if it is average, it is more than enough. It is not the kind that cannot afford to eat. It can even be said that we can still eat pure white bread buns from time to time.

It's just that her parents thought she and Bai Qingzao were just girls, and they didn't want them to eat too much, let alone eat well.

Sometimes, rice is served in two pots.

Others are white noodles, and she and white jujube can only be the salamander of sweet potato noodles. Others are cakes with stick noodles and white noodles. They can only eat sweet potato noodles and rod noodles.
