The Sickly General's Wife With A Spatial Ability Is Loved By All - Chapter 121

121 Intelligent From a Young Age

Su Fengchen nodded and said, “Yes, they’re all done. They’re in the back room. I’ll go get them for you.” He had accumulated as many duck eggs as possible and had almost a hundred of them.

He had pickled the duck eggs according to Su Binglan’s instructions. Although Su Fengchen did not know how his niece had thought of pickling the eggs in such a way, he did not doubt her when he thought of how Su Binglan was when she was a child.

His little niece had been clever since she was a child and was unique compared to others. Moreover, a monk once came to Su Teng village and commented on Su Binglan’s intelligence.

Su Fengchen vaguely knew what the monk said. Therefore, the Su family would not doubt the changes in Su Binglan.

Su Binglan looked at the pickled salted duck eggs and preserved eggs. She said smilingly, “Open one and try it, Uncle Fengchen.”

Su Fengchen had never tasted such a thing before. He was surprised when he opened the salted duck eggs and saw its orange yolk.

“Wow, how did the yolk change like that? It’s runny and flowing with oil.” Su Fengchen looked curious.

Su Binglan picked up the yolk with her chopsticks and handed it to Su Fengchen. “Here, try some.”

Su Fengchen took a bite out of curiosity and was amazed. He stared at the salted duck egg with widened eyes. After a long while, he finally found his voice, “The pickling has wholly changed the egg’s taste.”

Su Binglan smiled, “Do you like how it tastes, Uncle Fengchen?”

Su Fengchen nodded. “It’s delicious, Binglan. I’ve never eaten a duck egg with such a flavor before. This is called salted duck egg, right?”

Su Binglan explained, “Yes, it is. You don’t have to eat it on its own. You can eat it with a steamed bun or make another dish with them.”

Su Fengchen was ecstatic at that moment. “It’s perfect. I think my duck eggs will sell well if I continue pickling them like this.”

Since he severely injured his hands, Su Fengchen had not shown much emotion. But at that moment, he was excited that he had pickled the eggs independently.

Many ordinary families raised ducks and chickens, and they were self-sufficient. In addition, the current year was quite terrible, and everyone tried to save as much money as possible, so not many bought eggs.

There were wealthy families in town and townsfolk who raised ducks and chickens. The wealthy families would typically go to stalls that specialized in selling eggs and buy them from there.

Therefore, Su Fengchen would have trouble selling his eggs even if he sold them at the market. But he was no longer concerned after tasting the duck eggs.

Su Binglan removed a preserved egg, peeled it, cut it in two, and handed it to Su Fengchen. “Now, try this one, Uncle Fengchen.”

Su Fengchen was surprised when he saw the preserved egg’s color. He realized eggs made with different methods would look dissimilar to each other.

He bit into the egg and praised, “W-Wow, this one is fragrant and different from the salted egg. Still, it’s delicious.”

Su Binglan could not help but smile when she saw her uncle grinning. She felt her uncle’s lively aura.

Whenever Su Binglan visited her uncle in the past, she thought he was lifeless, like stagnant water. But he was better now. Su Binglan knew one would feel rejuvenated whenever one felt hopeful.

“Uncle Fengchen, you should raise more ducks and chickens. Don’t worry about not being able to sell their eggs. You can turn their eggs into salted eggs or preserved eggs.

“You can also use the duck’s neck and head to make delicious foods. Your right hand will feel better if you eat those things.”

If Su Binglan had said such things in the past, her uncle might have thought she was simply comforting him. But after witnessing Su Binglan’s changes, Su Fengchen knew she was being sincere.

Su Fengchen’s eyes reddened as he said, “T-Thank you for this, Binglan.”
