129 A Surprise
It was the first time many people had come to Luo Cheng’s house, so they were all curious when they saw the spacious courtyard.
When Li Shun and Zhao Xiu saw that Little Huzi had brought some people over, they stood up and greeted them with smiles.
Washing the duck eggs was very simple, but one had to pay special attention to the amount of strength when washing them.
Therefore, when everyone washed the duck eggs, they were very careful at first.
After familiarizing themselves with it, they became relaxed. It only took two hours to wash all the duck eggs.
Li Shun rubbed his sore waist and sighed as he saw the courtyard filled with quails containing duck eggs.
“In the past, we only thought that it wasn’t easy for us to farm outside. Now, we know that it’s not easy to manage everything at home either!”
“Everyone has their own difficulties!” Zhao Xiu smiled and continued, “If you want to live a comfortable life, you have to work hard to exchange for it. As long as a family works together, they won’t be afraid of anything! If we’re working hard while others stand at the side and watch, it won’t be worth it!”
Li Shun recalled the days they had lived in the Li family in the past and nodded. “That’s right! In the past, I never understood why we couldn’t live a good life even though we were all from the same family! Now, I finally understand that it’s useless for one or two people to work hard. We have to work hard together!”
“Father, Mother, stop sighing. Hurry up and help us distribute everyone’s wages!” Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng turned around to get the copper coins and gave Little Huzi and his group of friends their wages first.
According to what they had said previously, everyone would get paid according to the number of duck eggs they washed. Every 50 duck eggs they washed would earn them one copper coin.
Therefore, Little Huzi and the others each earned more than ten copper coins.
These dozen copper coins were a lot of money for the children.
With these copper coins, they didn’t have to ask the adults for money if they wanted to buy anything.
“Brother Luo Cheng, remember to call us if you have such jobs in the future! Don’t worry, we’ll definitely do it well!” Little Huzi said happily after receiving the money.
When Luo Cheng heard Little Huzi’s words, he reached out and touched his head.
“Don’t worry, no one will forget you! In the future, we’ll have to wash the duck eggs every month. Although it won’t be as much as this time, it can more or less let you accumulate some money. When the time comes, I’ll get someone to inform you, and you can call your friends over!”
Little Huzi and his friend’s eyes lit up when they heard this. Everyone smiled brightly.
After sending Little Huzi and the others off, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng went to get some wine and brought out two large pots.
“I originally planned to use these to make wine. I’ll marinate the duck eggs for you first! If I want to make wine, I’ll buy two more pots!” Luo Cheng looked at the two large pots and said.
Li Xiaoran looked at the two clean pots and nodded in satisfaction.
“Not bad. These two large pots are perfect for marinating salted duck eggs. Don’t worry, husband, the salted duck eggs definitely won’t disappoint you!” Li Xiaoran patted her chest and promised.
“Didn’t you say that salted duck eggs will have to be marinated for a long time? By the time the salted duck eggs are edible, it might be the new year!” Luo Cheng thought of something and said, “I’ll get some chicken feet tomorrow. Make the tasty chicken feet you mentioned!”
Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and nodded. “Sure! If you can buy pig trotters, pig skulls, and pig tails, you can buy them too!”
“Alright, I understand!” Luo Cheng nodded, indicating that he would remember Li Xiaoran’s words.
Because Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng were back today, it could be considered a small family gathering.
Zhao Xiu prepared a large table of dishes.
Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng washed the two large pots and sprayed some wine on them. When they walked out, they saw the table full of steaming food.
“Father, Mother, is today some sort of festive holiday? You actually made so many dishes!” Li Xiaoran asked in confusion.
Li Shun happened to be bringing out the last dish. When he heard his daughter’s question, he only smiled and turned to leave again.
Li Xiaoran was a little puzzled. Just as she was about to ask again, Li Shun actually brought out a wine jar.
“It’s our son-in-law’s birthday today. Previously, we were worried that you guys wouldn’t come back today! So we made two preparations. I prepared this wine yesterday. We have to have a good drink with our son-in-law today!”
Luo Cheng’s birthday?
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she looked at Luo Cheng.
Luo Cheng was stunned when he heard his father-in-law’s words. He had forgotten his own birthday.
“Today is the twenty-third of November?”
“That’s right! Today is the 23rd of November!” Li Shun replied with a smile, then filled the glass.
“Ziyang is injured and it’s not appropriate for him to drink. However, it’s your buddy’s birthday today. Drink a little more to show your sincerity!” Li Shun said as he poured some into Luo Ziyang’s wine bowl.
After that, Li Shun filled Luo Cheng and his wine bowl.
“Come, everyone, sit down!” Li Shun smiled and greeted everyone.
Luo Cheng was still a little stunned. Luo Ziyang pulled him to sit at the dining table.
Zhao Xiu brought over a bowl of noodles and two fried eggs.
“This is the birthday meal that the elders of our family made for a junior. This bowl of noodles represents our wish for the children to grow up happily. These two fried eggs represent our wish for the children to become promising and prosperous after they grow up! Come, son-in-law! Eat this bowl of noodles first today before eating anything else!”
Looking at the bowl of birthday noodles in front of him, Luo Cheng felt touched.
No one remembered his birthday ever since he was young.
The only people he remembered were those around him.
However, at that time, his life was difficult and he was ostracized.
It wasn’t easy to eat eggs on his birthday, let alone a bowl of noodles.
Later, when Luo Cheng grew up and became capable, he could buy himself many tasty food, but he gradually lost the desire to celebrate his birthday.
As time passed, Luo Cheng forgot when his birthday was.

Now, his parents-in-law had mentioned it, and they even specifically made a table of dishes and a bowl of birthday noodles. Luo Cheng suddenly felt a sense of warmth.
After picking up the noodles, Luo Cheng took two big bites with his chopsticks and then took a big bite of the fried egg.
It had to be said that the fried egg noodles with some salt and chili oil tasted better than anything Luo Cheng had eaten in the past.
It was because this bowl of noodles was filled with the care and affection!
“It’s very tasty! Thank you, Mother-in-law! This is the best birthday meal I’ve ever eaten!” Luo Cheng praised with a smile.
