Henry Su acted promptly, took two eggs from under the chicken in front of the yard, cut a handful of leeks from his private plot, and brought his mother to the stove.

Looking at the earthen stove in the countryside, Henry Su felt a sense of familiarity.

Grace Bai seemed a little nervous. She sat on the small stool in front of the stove, feeling restless.

"Henry Su, are you hungry? Wait for your nanny to come back and I'll cook for you... or should we wait a little longer?"

Henry Su stared at the egg in his hand, and had already imagined 108 ways for it to die.

Chive eggs, Chinese toon eggs, beans fried eggs, tomato scrambled eggs...

"Gurgle."

Grace Bai subconsciously covered her stomach.

His face turned slightly red.

Henry Su acted decisively. He held two eggs in one hand and gently spread them apart with his fingers. The clear egg white and bright yolk fell into the broken bowl.

He picked up a pair of chopsticks and began to beat the eggs with great skill. The liquids collided and merged during the stirring, gradually turning into a bowl of clear yellow egg liquid.

At this time, the iron pot has become slightly hot, and a sizzling sound is made as the water evaporates.

Henry Su was just about to pour some oil to lubricate the pot, but when he looked at the slightly turbid bucket with only half of the oil left, he fell silent again.

I know these days are difficult.

But when I experienced it myself, I still didn't expect it to be so difficult.

He reduced the amount of oil again and again, carefully poured in half a spoonful, then cut the leeks and sprinkled them into the iron pan.

Stir-fry the leeks until the aroma bursts out, but also slide it into the pot to blend with the leeks and fully coat them.

In the absence of extreme seasonings, the only advantage of this scrambled eggs with leeks is the pure natural leeks and eggs from domesticated, non-feed-fed chickens.

In just a few minutes, a brightly colored, heart-warming dish of fried leeks and eggs is freshly prepared.

Grace Bai was stunned watching from the side.

She felt that when her son picked up the iron spoon, his whole temperament changed.

She took a look at the leeks that were green like emerald, the eggs that were bright yellow, and the oily color. She swallowed subconsciously, and her nose twitched slightly.

You don’t even need to taste it to know it’s delicious!

But Grace Bai felt a little pain in her heart.

How much oil is needed to make this dish?

She glanced at Henry Su, and for the first time an idea flashed through her mind.

This prodigal B@st@ard!

Henry Su was totally unaware, baring his big white teeth and smiling proudly, "Mom, try it! Let's see your son's cooking skills!"

Grace Bai looked at Henry Su and suddenly remembered something, "Son, how come you can cook suddenly? And..." He cooked quite well, and looked no different from the chefs in state-owned restaurants.

Henry Su thought to himself that it was just as expected.

No matter how heavy my filter is, I can't deceive myself to this extent.

He is currently in the Northeast, and happens to be living in this era...

Henry Su thought in his heart, the smile on his face faded slightly, and he said seriously, "Mom, have you heard of Wong Tai Sin?"

...

The days in Northeast China are short, and by the time you get off work, it’s already dark.

The mottled walls of the earthen house are left with cracks left by the passage of time.

Smoke gradually rose from the chimneys of a row of bungalows.

It seems like there is a feeling of peace and tranquility.

Near the blue brick house of the Su family, a skinny old man, with a pipe in his mouth and his hands behind his back, walked slowly towards them.

An old woman stood next to him, short and thin, with sunken cheeks and shrewd eyes.

Overall, she is an old lady who doesn't look very kind.

Behind the two of them, there was a huge group of people following, and it looked like a big scene.

Suddenly, the old lady felt something was wrong and sniffed the air.

Before she could speak, a little girl with dirty and dry cheeks sucked her fingers and said excitedly, "Grandma, I smell the smell of eggs! Are we having eggs tonight?"

"Eggs! Eat your donkey eggs!" The old lady replied angrily, "How shameless! It's not a festival, it's not a festival, you just want to eat eggs! The landlords don't have a good life like you!"

The little girl's eyes were bright under her messy hair like straw. She didn't cry even after being scolded. She smiled and said, "Grandma, what do donkey eggs taste like? Are they delicious?"

The old lady was too lazy to deal with this annoying thing.

When she reached the courtyard, a strong and overbearing meaty aroma wafted into her nose.

Her heart skipped a beat and her head turned quickly, staring straight at the empty chicken coop.

Where is the shadow of the eggs?

The old lady let out a cry, slapped her thigh, and walked quickly and steadily on her small feet, blowing into the house like the wind.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw a plate of greasy and shiny scrambled eggs with leeks on the dining table.

Gurgle.

She swallowed first.

Oh my god, I’ve seen this leek and egg dish before, but why isn’t it as delicious as this one?

The old lady was a little confused.

Should she scold these two prodigal sons first, or should she taste the egg first?

Henry Su was completely stunned when he saw the little old lady coming towards him aggressively.

Just because this old lady looked 90% similar to the grandmother in my memory.

If I had to say what the difference was, the little old lady in front of me was darker, thinner and more emaciated.

She was like a candle swaying in the wind, ready to go out at any time.

In an instant, after Henry Su came to this era, all his confusion disappeared completely, and his whole heart became bright, as if there was hope.

He called out cheerfully, "Milk!"

The old lady glanced at him with a complicated expression.

How could she not care about the only child of the fourth wife's family?

But the fourth brother is really a scoundrel.

Henry Su was stupid at that time, he and the fourth son's wife refused to have another child.

Seeing that the fourth room's incense was about to be cut off, the old lady had some complaints in her heart.

But who could have thought that the world would take such unexpected turns that the precious child would finally wake up.

The old lady was in a state of confusion.

It's just that her personality is like that. No matter how excited she is, with so many days of buffering, she still looks calm.

The corners of her tightly pursed lips were slightly smoothed, and she finally said "hmm" in a neutral tone.

But when I turned around and looked at the plate of delicious-looking leeks and eggs, my anger rose again.

"How can we still live like this? Who puts so much oil in a dish? Oil doesn't need a ticket or money? Fourth brother's wife, I'm not saying you..."

"Nanny, I did it."

Henry Su suddenly spoke.

"Then...what?! When did you learn how to cook?"

"Don't you just pick up a spatula to learn how to cook?"

Henry Su took it for granted.

Just as the old lady was about to open her mouth, Henry Su was quick to pick up a piece of scrambled egg and put it into her mouth.

Food is so precious these days.

Not to mention oil and eggs.

The old lady was afraid that the food would fall to the ground, so she immediately closed her mouth and started chewing the scrambled eggs wrapped in leeks.

After eating it, she wanted to swallow her tongue.

She had eaten leek eggs before, but this was the first time she had tasted it so deliciously.

It is oily with a hint of fragrance, the eggs are soft and tender, and the leeks are sweet. When you bite it, the pure oil bursts out. After eating a piece, you can only feel the fragrance on your lips and teeth, without any peculiar smell of leeks.

This... this is simply, so delicious!

It was so delicious that she couldn't say anything harsh about it.

The old lady couldn't help thinking:

State-owned restaurant... that's it, right?
