As curious as the adults were, they couldn't be as thick-skinned as the children. After all, Xiao Lingye already said that Mother Xiao only made enough for their family.
When Mother Xiao heard Xiao Xiaohu, she said, "Come in and eat then. We have some left." Mother Xiao got up to get four more sets of cutlery. Thankfully, she had made extra.
The food was delicious, but it would still go to waste if they couldn't finish it. The Xiao Family was already full. Mother Xiao decided to give the remaining porridge and pancakes to the kids.
Xiao Lingye immediately protested. "Mom, I have to go to school today. I plan to bring these pancakes with me."
Mother Xiao glanced at him. "Don't be so stingy. I'll make more for you!"
Her children were going to town later. Yu 'Er was going to the market, Ye 'Er to school. The town was quite far from Taoyuan Village, so they had to leave early. There was not enough time to cook more porridge but frying some egg pancakes was doable.
