Chapter 490
Lin Lan learned from Han Qingsong how to roll the noodles by hand. The noodles were hard, so she had to knead them vigorously before rolling them into a big piece that was slightly thicker than a coin. Finally, she rolled it back and forth with a rolling pin and folded it into a rectangular shape. From then on, she used a knife to start cutting the noodles.
She was afraid that she would not be able to make the thinner ones all that well, so she made a batch of slightly thicker noodles that wouldn’t break off that easily.
Moreover, both she and the children liked to eat wide noodles. Upon sight, they looked bolder, but it packed more flavour and was more filling as well!

Then, the duo heated up the pan and added a spoonful of oil, directly pouring the mixture of leeks and eggs into it. With a sizzle, the unique aroma of leek and egg permeated the house.
The amount of scrambled eggs they were able to make was large. That way, everyone could eat a fair portion. Plus, the family liked this version of eggs and leeks being topped on noodles.
The children ate the meal deliciously— Xiaowang had an entire bowl whereas Sanwang had about the same amount as Erwang.
After dinner, Erwang also helped wash the dishes before going to school. Han Qingsong mentioned that since it was cold in winter, he asked Lin Lan to avoid touching cold water as much as possible.
Erwang found out that the better they treated their mother, the easier it was for them to live with their father. Otherwise, the tension would always be suffocating and the children had to watch out for their lives.
Han Qingsong didn’t come home at noon and since the children went to school, Lin Lan was writing a new script at home. She had to sort out some interesting things she had collected to make sure that she didn’t forget them.
There was also a disadvantage of a large house, which was having colder temperatures and freezing hands.
Lin Lan sat on the kang in the west room, covered with a quilt as she scribbled her thoughts on the kang table.

While she was busy, she heard some movement at the gate.
She rolled up the small window paper of the window.
They pasted up the new windows papers in mid-October. The paper was the kind of large, white paper that was distributed in public. They made their papers three layers thick, making it windproof and strong. The disadvantage of it was that it was not easy to see through from the inside.
So Lin Lan made a small window in the middle and rolled it up with sorghum poles. If she wanted a view of the outside, she could roll it up anytime.
She saw several people coming in from the outside and one of them was Han Jinyu!
Lin Lan jumped off the ground and put on her shoes. As soon as she reached the main room, those people came in.
Han Jinyu took the lead and complained, “The wind is strong and cold,” She entered the house and stamped her feet, flaking all the snow on her feet inside the house.
