The charcoal balls were made by the little wife herself, knowing well before their time in the Golden Triangle that the journey through the desert would undoubtedly be arduous. Thus, anything that could be thought of was prepared in abundance, or else where would the eight camels come from, five of which were solely responsible for carrying supplies.
In the desert, water is scarce and has to be used sparingly, so she made a soup with chicken eggs, a small bowl for each was enough, and then she stuck a few pancakes, which are much less troublesome than rice.
Hong Xiangjun was sorting out the supplies on the camels when she suddenly exclaimed in alarm, "Ah, it's cooked!???"
Dong Huiying was quite puzzled and looked up, "What's cooked?" And then, she saw Hong Xiangjun holding a chicken egg in each hand.
Hong Xiangjun: "The eggs are cooked!"
