Where does an egg come from?
This morning, we had noodles and eggs for breakfast.
My daughter took an egg , breaking it, shelling hull, this is a boiled egg.,but she didn't eat. She observed the egg for a moment and asked
"Mom,where does an egg come from?"
I was very surprised why she asked such a question, but I was still answered her question seriously.
“Hens lay them, baby".
" But how can we get eggs from a hen ?"she then asked.
“We can get what we want directly.we can get as many as we want. It's easy."I said,wondering what she was thinking about.
" Do the hens agree? Do they agree to give us their eggs? Our people steal from the hens?"she went on asking.
"Why don't they agree? we keep them, and they give us their eggs.That's it " I said.
"If they ddin't agree?"she asked.
"
"They're just like eggs hurled against stone, they're heading for their doom.”I I said certainly
This is human nature.This is Law of the jungle .
" I see, mom" she nodded, I thought she straightened out this time.
"And in the same way ,people can get honey from bees,even if they have their dreadful sting, is it right?" finally, she asked.
This time, I didn't say anything, because I didn't know how to answer her.

Nice style Lotus.
You make no consistent mistakes with your grammar either, but sometimes your tenses could be improved. Some alternative wordings might be: I answered her seriously, and Just like eggs, they would be hurled against rocks.
I look forward to hearing more of your stories.
