Daddy's cub is three and half years old: chapter 4.2

 

   The next morning, Ran Ran rubbed her eyes, and Daddy was no longer there.


    Ran Ran is used to it, first slowly got dressed, climbed out of bed, and went out to take a look at the chickens at home. Both hens were still there and were as fat as yesterday.


 Ran Ran nodded in satisfaction, and entered the house with a small chest held up.


    When she entered the house, she used her small tub to scoop water like last night. After washing herself clean, she rummaged in  her basket. 


There was nothing to eat, so she had to eat and cook.


    Ran Ran doesn't know how to cook, but she always smells the scent of if there is nothing, like a steamed bun.


    She searched around the stove, searched on the side of the bed, and finally stopped at the wooden table where a leg was missing.


    The table is a bit high and can only be reached on tiptoe, but the steamed bun is probably placed in the center of the table, and Ran Ran can't touch it.


    There is a small stool, and the stool is swaying, she is worried about falling.


    She still tried it two more times, but didn't touch the steamed buns, but touched a string of copper plates.


    After using up both hands, Ran Ran can count exactly how many copper plates there are.


    Dad left her ten copper plates!


    Ran Ran was extremely happy.


    Divide the copper plates into three groups, five hidden under the bed, three in a small cloth pocket, and two hidden in her own basket.


    Ran Ran took a small cloth bag and went to the village for a stroll. After seeing her, Ran Ran's aunt shouting: "Ran Ran, have you eaten this morning? Come to my aunt's house for a bowl of porridge!"


    Ran Ran smiled, "I have eaten it." Pat Xiao belly. "Ran Ran is full!"


    Aunt Wang's family has no eggs to eat. In the bottom of Ran Ran's heart, there is no eggs to eat, but she has no money. If she eats again, what should I do if her aunt is too poor to eat.


    So Ran Ran planned to go to Grandma Zhang's house, who had eggs to eat first.


    Zhang's family had just had breakfast, and the man went out to work, and the old lady Zhang and his daughter-in-law were chatting while feeding chickens.


    Old lady Zhang feeds the chicken absently, "Why hasn't Ran Ran come yet? I don't know if she has enough food and sleep well. Her father is often away from home all day long. Alas, the more I think about it, the more sad."


    Daughter-in-law Zhao Erniang also thought about Ranran. She comforted her mother-in-law, " Ran Ran's Father is not so distracted. Taking care of Ranran will not be a problem."


    After feeding the chicken absentmindedly, a little milk sounded : "Grandma Zhang, Aunt Zhao, coming here." When the cheerful voice sounded, old lady Zhang wrinkled her face and said, "Er Niang, get some eggs for Ranran. "


    Zhao Erniang " eh " sound into the kitchen.


    Ran Ran carrying her small cloth pocket, and stepping over the threshold with her deflated abdomen, Zhao Erniang had already brought out the boiled eggs.


    Ran Ran swallowed secretly, pursed her mouth to prevent others from discovering, and stretched out a finger, "Ran Ran only needs one egg." 


The aunt gave too many eggs.


    Zhao Erniang likes Ran Ran, in addition to her mother-in-law, it is also that the little girl Ran Ran is too sensible and makes people feel distressed.


    "It's okay, your aunt's family doesn't lack eggs to eat." Zhao Erniang said gratifyingly.


    Zhang Jiashan raises chickens and raises hundreds of chickens. On weekdays, he sells all his eggs to the town. He is also one of the richest households in the village, and there is no shortage of these eggs.


    The little girl was still very stubborn, only took the top egg, and after eating it, followed Zhao Erniang into the chicken coop to pick up eggs.


    Both Mrs. Zhang and Erniang Zhao knew that Ran Ran's temper was sometimes as strong as her father's. If they didn't let her help pick eggs, she would not ask for boiled eggs.


    Ran Ran looked at a lot of big fat chickens, picking up eggs happily.


    At the bottom of her heart, she started to make small calculations, and Dad was almost unable to support her. Every day she came to pick up eggs, and she could save an egg.


    When she goes to one place, she picks the eggs over there and puts them together, and when she goes to another place, she gathers the nearby eggs together.


    Sometimes Zhao Erniang goes directly to the place where the eggs are piled up and puts the eggs in the basket.


    After half an hour, Erniang Zhao stopped letting Ranran pick it up, and took Ranran out, and Ranran asked in a daze, "Is there no eggs? Ranran hasn't been there yet."


    Zhao Erniang said, "Auntie went to pick it up. After picking it up, it is estimated that there will be fewer chickens tomorrow, and we will pick it up the day after tomorrow."


    Ran Ran nodded disappointedly when she wanted to make a fortune with eggs.


    The road to fortune failed, Ran Ran was a little depressed, sitting quietly on the bench.


    Zhao Erniang grabbed the fried beans and let Ran Ran eat, and talked to Mrs. Zhang.


    With a bean in her mouth, Ran Ran pricked up her ears and listened quietly to the elders.


    When she heard about raising chickens, her eyes brightened. There are two hens in her family. They must be raised and lay eggs!


    Ran Ran said goodbye to Aunt Zhao and Grandma Zhang, and strolled back to find Daddy.


    People in the village don't know, but Ran Ran actually knows a lot. Everyone thought that Ran Ran didn't understand at a young age, and she didn't shy away from saying anything. 


    So Ran Ran listened to a lot of gossip, although a lot of it did not understand, it did not prevent Ran Ran from listening with great interest. After listening too much, she could always understand a sentence or two.


    Walking on the road, Ran Ran is thinking about life very seriously. It turns out that the gods are right. Her father will get poorer!


    Ran squeezed a fist, she will try to make her money since her father have no money!
