Rebirth in the 80's: The Daily Life of the Villain's Mom-Chapter 38: Boil Them All

Pei Jing’s eyes were glowing, like they were filled with stars.

"Is kindergarten fun?"

Jiang Ran thought carefully about her own kindergarten experiences...

She couldn’t remember anything.

It was too long ago, and she’d forgotten.

But it should have been fun.

"It should be fun," Jiang Ran said.

"What if it’s not fun?" Pei Jing continued to ask.

Jiang Ran, "..."

How would she know?!

If she knew Pei Jing had so many questions, she wouldn’t have let Pei Shanshan go out.

Unfortunately, it was too late to regret it now.

After Jiang Ran answered countless bizarre questions from Pei Jing, Pei Shanshan finally returned.

Along with Pei Shanshan were some elderly women, all carrying baskets, clearly coming to sell eggs.

The group came into the house in the blink of an eye, and as soon as they entered, someone couldn’t help but speak up.

"Ranran, we heard from Shanshan that you want to buy our eggs? One penny each, really?"

Jiang Ran nodded, "Really."

It wasn’t that Jiang Ran didn’t want to be more polite, she was just afraid of breaking her character.

Fortunately, no one cared about Jiang Ran’s attitude.

"So... we brought all the eggs..."

Jiang Ran looked at Pei Shanshan, "Shanshan, go get a basket, let’s count the eggs."

Hearing Jiang Ran say this, the few people sighed in relief.

The number of eggs each person brought varied.

Some had more than a dozen, and some had only five or six.

No matter how many, Jiang Ran accepted them all and paid accordingly.

Once everything was settled, and Jiang Ran was left with nothing to do, these people didn’t leave. Instead, they sat down with smiles on their faces.

"Ranran, why are you collecting so many eggs all of a sudden?"

"Yeah! It’s so many eggs, you can’t eat them all in one go."

Jiang Ran’s gaze swept over their faces, not a hint of a smile, "You don’t want to sell them? Then next time, I won’t take yours."

"No, no, no! It’s not that we don’t want to sell, alright, I have things to do at home, I’ll be going."

"Me too, me too, I need to head back."

The women who were gossiping a moment ago immediately stood up and hurried out.

Pei Shanshan watched them walk away until they were far, then turned to look at Jiang Ran.

She’s really... amazing!

Living in the same village, Pei Shanshan knew what kind of people they were.

They were eager to find out even how many bowls of porridge and pieces of vegetables others had each night, yet now they hurriedly left after asking just two questions.

Nonetheless, she truly admired her, but she couldn’t talk to people like that.

She just didn’t have that kind of confidence.

Pei Shanshan was well aware that if she had said the same two sentences Jiang Ran just did, the outcome would have been completely different.

Jiang Ran didn’t care how complex Pei Shanshan’s gaze was, "You only found these few households?"

"No, no!" Pei Shanshan quickly waved her hands, "Some of the adults weren’t home, so I talked to their kids. I asked them to tell their parents when they got back."

Jiang Ran nodded, "That’s fine then."

In total, they’d collected just a few dozen eggs, probably enough for breakfast tomorrow.

"Go start the fire and boil all these eggs," Jiang Ran told Pei Shanshan.

"Boil them all?"

"Boil them all."
