Chapter 407: Chapter 408 The First Meal in Each Room 2

A few days ago, Helian Qiao caught some sparrows and Ma Xiulian had been raising them without eating them.

Early this morning, she slaughtered them to stew a sparrow soup for her little granddaughter, the soup simmered to a particularly rich and fragrant.

Only Zhao Mei was the most frugal. She just cooked brown rice porridge and sweet potato cakes, and she being pregnant, she had two extra eggs for nutrition.

Erni was drooling from the scent coming from the other houses, seeing only clear porridge and sweet potato cakes on the table, she immediately pouted and mumbled, "Mom, look at how everyone else has meat to eat, I want some too!"

She thought that after the family split, without her grandmother favoring others over her, she would be able to eat meat every day like Guibao, but what was with all these things!

"Erni, we need to save food. If we eat it now, we won’t have any later. Eating meat once a month is enough," Zhao Mei said quietly.

The rooms each divided up the same items, but their family had the most people. Not to mention the three daughters, there was also another one in her belly.

If it turns out to be a boy, he’ll have to marry and take a wife when he grows up, so she had to plan well for the future.

But seeing her second daughter looking pitiful, she still gave her a bit of egg from her bowl to eat.

The little piece of egg was hardly enough to get stuck in her teeth, Erni still felt wronged after eating it.

Especially when she turned her head and saw Helian Qiao eating so deliciously, she felt even more wronged.

After eating, each room cleared their own bowls and chopsticks.

At this time, Gu Tingyun came with a small yellow school bag in his hand, on it was written ’Serve the People’ in big letters.

He walked up to Helian Qiao and handed it to her: "This bag is what my dad bought from the grocery co-op, I also have a military green one, this one is for you."

Even Gu Qingshan knows now that the Little Princess likes shiny gold colors.

Helian Qiao happily received it and flipped through it, the bag was big, she could store lots of canned meat in it.

Ma Xiulian said with a smiling face: "Thank you so much, I was planning to find time to buy one for Guibao."

"This bag is stylish, I want one too!" Chen Erbao came up, looking at it and wanting one as well.

Chen Dabao didn’t say anything, but there was a longing look in his eyes when he looked at Zhou Zhaodi.

"Comrade Jiang, how much does this bag cost?" Zhou Zhaodi looked at Jiang Manyun to her side and asked with a smile.

It is indeed necessary to have a school bag for carrying things when going to school, besides, they also got a few hundred yuan when the family split up, they could afford to buy a school bag.

Jiang Manyun gave a gentle smile and answered truthfully: "2.5 yuan each."

Zhou Zhaodi was taken aback, this bag was so expensive—it’s a whopping 2.5 yuan apiece!

Even if they received a lot of money from the split, they could not afford to spend so extravagantly!

Seeing her hesitate, Chen Erbao immediately sprang forward and held her arm, wailing: "Mom, just buy us a bag! Whoever heard of going to school without a bag! And besides, it’ll last for a long time. Don’t worry, we’ll study hard and earn a lot of money in the future to bring you and dad a comfortable life!"

Upon hearing his words, Zhou Zhaodi felt it expensive but gritted her teeth and decided to buy it. After all, it could be used for a long time, and it could also motivate Dabao and Erbao to study hard: "After the purchase, you both must study hard!"

Seeing the two nodding in agreement, she turned to Jiang Manyun and asked: "Comrade Jiang, could you bring back two of these bags for us tomorrow?"

Jiang Manyun nodded with a smile: "Of course."

"Great! Mom, you’re the best!" Chen Erbao jumped up on the spot, cheering excitedly.

Zhou Zhaodi immediately gave him a fierce glare: "I’ve always been your mother!"
