Goudan's mother nodded in empathy, tears streaming down her face again, "It's not a big deal, they are all flesh and blood that fell from our bodies, it would hurt us to death if any of them were gone."

Zhou Chunfeng patted her hands and said, "Take the child home quickly. The child must have been frightened today."

"Hey, sister-in-law, we'll come to thank you another day."

Zhou Chunfeng waved her hand and said no, not knowing whether Goudan’s mother listened or not. The couple thanked them again and left with Goudan.

The crowd gradually dispersed, and Zhou Chunfeng walked home holding her daughter's hand.

On the way, Zhou Chunfeng asked, "Girl, how did you know this way to save people?"

Zheng Xiaoman paused and said, "I don't remember where I saw it, but I think I saw it at my grandpa's house."

Zhou Chunfeng didn't think much about it. Children are curious about everything, and she might have taken note of what she saw others do.

But she still felt uncomfortable when she thought about those kids calling her daughter ugly.

"My daughter, don't take anything they say to heart. In my heart, you are the best."

Zheng Xiaoman leaned his head on his mother's arm affectionately, "Don't worry, mother, I don't care what they say. When I make a lot of money in the future, I will let them see that this ugly freak of mine is a hundred times better than them."

"Okay, my daughter is ambitious. If we work together as a family, our lives will definitely get better and better."

In Zhou Chunfeng's heart, her daughter is the best, well-behaved and obedient.

It doesn’t matter if her face is damaged. At most she will support her daughter for the rest of her life.

The mother and daughter talked as they walked and soon arrived home.

When Zheng Xiaoman got home, he remembered, "Oh, by the way, Mom, look, I found a lot of wild duck eggs in the reeds."

Zhou Chunfeng took the basket and said, "Wow, there are so many duck eggs. Mom will make you some bone soup and stir-fry some leeks and duck eggs tonight."

"Okay, there will be bone soup tonight."

Zheng Xiaoman jumped for joy like a child.

As soon as Zheng Qingming came back, he heard his little sister's happy laughter, and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.

"Brother, you're back." Zheng Xiaoman saw Zheng Qingming and ran towards him.

Zheng Qingming reached out and touched his sister's fluffy head. "Well, I also bought you some candied haws. You can take them and eat them with your brothers and sisters."

He put down the backpack and took out a string of candied haws from it.

Zheng Xiaoman saw that he only bought one skewer, raised it and handed it to his mouth, "Brother, eat first."

Zheng Qingming shook his head, "Brother won't eat it, you can go eat it with Lixia and Lichun."

Zheng Xiaoman held the candied haws stubbornly. What child at this age wouldn't like to eat candied haws? He just couldn't bear to eat it.

Zheng Qingming had no choice but to bite off a hawthorn from it.

"Brother, is it delicious?"

Zheng Qingming smiled and said, "It's delicious."

There are six people in their family, and there are exactly six hawthorns on it.

She went to find her parents again and forced them to eat one each.

She took the rest and shared it with her younger brothers and sisters.

Zheng Qingming saw his sister running away and handed the purse to Zhou Chunfeng.

"Mom, the pheasant was sold for 60 coins, and the two fish weighed a total of 178 pounds. Shopkeeper Bai gave me a total of coins."

Zhou Chunfeng took the purse and said, "When the weather gets cold in a while, I'll use this money to buy some cloth and cotton to make winter clothes for you."

Zheng Qingming shook his head. "Mom, I don't want it. My winter clothes are still wearable. You can make them for my brothers and sisters."

Zheng Xiaoman just came back and heard, "Mom, brother doesn't want it, and I don't want it either."

Zheng Qingming looked at his sister helplessly, "Brother's winter coat is made from Dad's clothes. After some modification, it can be worn for another two years."

Zheng Xiaoman said nothing. She had to buy clothes and would go catch more fish in a couple of days.

Zhou Chunfeng smiled as she watched the two children give way to each other. All the children in her family are good.

In the afternoon, Zhou Chunfeng prepared the bone soup early, and Zheng Xiaoman saw the pig offal in the bucket.

Her eyes lit up, this is a good thing.

Zhou Chunfeng brought back a complete set, including pig heart, pig lungs, pig liver, large intestine and small intestine.

No one eats this thing now, so it is usually given away for free as a gift.

If you buy it separately, it only costs five cents.

"Mom, can you let me do this?"

Zhou Chunfeng picked the leeks without looking up, "Okay, if you want to do it, go ahead. But this is a big deal, don't let it make you sick."

"Hehe, no, don't worry, mom."

These things that are unwanted in the eyes of others are all good things in Zheng Xiaoman's eyes.

When she finishes making it, I guarantee it will smell so good that it will kill you.

It is best to use salt or flour to wash pig intestines, but her family would not let her do that.

Zheng Xiaoman could only scoop out some wood ash from the stove and sprinkle it in a basin, then take the basin to the river to wash, where it was more convenient to change the water.

She carried the basin to the river, sat there and carefully turned the large and small intestines over and scrubbed them clean.

There was a lot of oil on the intestines, and her hands were covered with a layer of greasy stuff.

Zheng Xiaoman plucked two leaves from the side to wipe his hands, then carried the washed pig offal back home.

"Mom, I'll use the stove next to you."

There are two stoves in their kitchen, one for stewing bone soup and the other for cooking pig offal.

She planned to cook the pig heart, liver and lungs directly, add some spices, and eat them with the sauce after they were cooked.

Cook the large and small intestines first. When you see that you can fit a fingernail into them, you can take them out of the pot.

Then cut them into sections and use them for braising later.

Zhou Chunfeng just watched her daughter busying herself there, and it looked like she was doing something serious.

She didn't pay any attention to her, put a bamboo curtain on the soup pot, and then put a pot of mixed grain rice on it to steam.

The pork liver and lungs were cooked quickly. Zheng Xiaoman used spring water to cook them. As soon as the lid of the pot was opened, a fragrant aroma wafted up.

Zhou Chunfeng was attracted by the aroma and came over, "Girl, what did you add? Why does it smell so good?"

"Mom, I didn't put anything in it. I just put some spices in it."

Zheng Xiaoman took out the pork liver and put it on the chopping board, then took a knife and cut off a piece and handed it to her mother.

"Mom, try it and see if it's cooked."

Zhou Chunfeng took the liver and put it into her mouth, her eyes brightened up.

"My girl, this pork liver is fresh and delicious, and it's cooked just right."

She savored the taste in her mouth and always felt that this pork liver was different from what she had eaten before.

Zheng Xiaoman also picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. It was really fragrant and tender.

The two little ones smelled the aroma and poked their heads in from the kitchen door. Lixia saw her sister and mother eating and asked hurriedly, "Mom, sister, what are you eating? It smells so good."

Chun Ya squatted on the doorstep and slurped her saliva.

Zheng Xiaoman took two pieces of pork liver and gave each of them a piece. "I just cooked pork liver. Try it and see if it tastes good."

Lixia couldn't wait to stuff the pig liver into her mouth and ate it in a few bites.

"Sister, it's delicious. It's really delicious."
