Cheng Su and her family had a new addition, and they've already handed out red eggs back home, so they can't be left out here either. Mother Cheng discussed with her daughter and bought a basket of eggs to dye red. They sent them to familiar families, and the rest, Qi Taiguo took to the troops to share in the joy.
The day after returning home, Father Cheng and Father Qi came with chickens, bustling and lively. Since Mother Qi had difficulty with her legs, it was Father Qi and Qi Jianguo who came, along with Cheng Zhi from the maternal side.
Two large cages of chickens, totaling twenty-five, were clucking away. Thankfully, these days people aren't too particular, otherwise, would the cars have let them on?
Even so, Cheng Su felt a bit overwhelmed. The weather was hot, and she, being postpartum, needed heavy supplements. Mother Cheng made her nourishing carp soup and chicken soup with layers of oil, which she drank until she felt sick.
