Lin Baoni ate a big dinner and then diligently washed the dishes and cleaned the kitchen. She just couldn't seem to cook anything right; it wasn't a matter of saltiness, it was a matter of whether the food was poisonous!

In the 1960s, when there were no entertainment facilities, people spent their nights either sleeping or having babies.

Regarding the matter of having a baby, Gu Ye personally feels that there is no rush to successfully create a baby. He still needs to study the process of having a baby more and improve his skills.

Bonnie, on the other hand, wasn't ready at all. She had no idea what to do with a baby.

However, that was the way things were at the time; many children meant many blessings, and every family had three or five.

The two of them hadn't figured out any effective contraceptive methods, so they just let nature take its course.

I slept soundly without any dreams, and in the morning I still went for my morning exercise and then to the cafeteria for breakfast.

"I'm leaving. Take care of lunch yourself." Gu Ye has been busy lately and hasn't been able to come back to cook.

"You can go now, don't worry about me, I won't starve myself." Bonnie smiled as she saw Gu Ye off; she had other things to do!

After tidying up the house quickly, Bonnie carried her basket and headed towards the mountains.

After bypassing the front of the mountain, Bonnie reached her usual swimming spot. She went into the cave to hide the basket, then swam into the water towards the back of the mountain.

Stopping at the corner, Bonnie took a deep breath and began to sink. Guided by her senses, Bonnie started swimming forward. Suddenly, Bonnie surfaced and gasped for air.

This place is like a natural cave, with an area of ​​more than 200 square meters. It's like a big hole dug into the mountain. What's amazing is that there is air circulation inside the cave.

Bonnie followed her memory and found the place where she hid the things. There was a deep hole at the top of the cave wall, about half a meter deep.

Bonnie tiptoed and pulled the box out, opened the lid, and found it wrapped in oil paper. She opened it layer by layer to reveal the contents.

It was quite a collection: small bracelets, bells, jade pendants, hairpins, gold bracelets, a few small gold nuggets, and two small yellow croakers. Bonnie wrapped them up again and put them back; this was the original owner's little treasure trove, accumulated since childhood.

After looking at the items, Bonnie began to survey the secret base.

Bonnie remembers that she first swam down more than a meter, then swam diagonally upwards, and slowly the cave-like cave appeared in front of her.

The water level in the cave was low, and I didn't know if there were any secret passages or what. The seawater was flowing, but from the outside it looked like a big pot with edges, and the fish and other creatures inside couldn't swim out.

Bonnie sat with her legs in the water, and occasionally a fish would nibble at her feet.

Bonnie played for a while, then caught two big fish, stunned them, and put them in a burlap sack she had prepared beforehand. She also put in more than twenty large abalone, all of which Bonnie had been putting into the sack over the past ten years.

She swam back the way she came, surfaced, shook her head to shake off the water droplets, and then, pulling the sack, swam to where the basket had been.

He wrung out the water from his clothes, went into the cave where he kept the basket, changed into dry clothes, put the clothes and burlap sack into the basket, and after leaving the cave, he found some wild vegetables nearby and put them on the basket.

Bonnie walked all the way back to the family compound, where she encountered some curious older women who craned their necks to look into Bonnie's basket.

"Wild mountain vegetables? I thought they were something special!" the woman in the front yard muttered to the older woman next to her.

"What good stuff could there be on this mountain besides wild vegetables? You've been here for years, you know that all too well," the older woman said helplessly. Zhu Fuying's family was good at everything, except they loved to join in the fun.

"Who says otherwise? We have too little land; we can't even plant a lot of autumn vegetables." Another woman was worried. Her son was eating her father out of house and home; they really had to be careful with their food!

While her sisters-in-law were chatting animatedly, Bonnie went home and put the fish in a large basin. The fish that had been stunned then recovered.

The large abalone was also placed in the bowl, which looked very appealing.

Bonnie changed into clean clothes and washed the two sets of wet clothes. It was almost noon, so she took a fish to her grandmother, picked up some abalone, and took care of lunch.

After packing my things, I took a few meal tickets and went to the canteen to get some steamed buns.

The women chatting outside noticed Bonnie coming and going and found it strange.

It seems that Battalion Commander Gu's young wife doesn't cook; she either goes to the canteen or goes out during mealtimes.

"Hey, you're going out now, Battalion Commander Gu's wife? Have you finished eating?" The sister-in-law of Deputy Battalion Commander Zhu couldn't help but ask Bao Ni, who had just come out of the canteen.

"Oh, I haven't eaten yet. I'll go back to my parents' house to eat. I can't cook." Bonnie stopped and said this before riding her bicycle away again.

Regardless of the astonished looks of the group of women behind her, the fact that she couldn't cook and was eating at her parents' home was a huge shock, sparking a lively discussion among them and giving them a new topic of conversation.

Unbeknownst to Bonnie, she had already arrived at her parents' home.

"Grandma, I'm back." Before she even arrived, her voice preceded her as Bonnie pushed open the door and entered the courtyard.

"Baoni, have you finished tilling the land?" Grandma Lin asked in confusion. Wasn't it supposed to be tilled today?

"I'll go home and rummage through the land after lunch. It's only a small area. I went to sea today and caught a big fish. Grandma, you can cook it tonight." Bonnie emptied the basket of fish, including abalone.

"Wow, it's so big! The abalone is quite large too!" Grandma exclaimed and quickly took it to the kitchen.

Bonnie was hungry. "Grandma, is there anything else to eat?" she called out towards the kitchen.

"I made stir-fried shredded potatoes and stewed pumpkin for lunch. The rice isn't ready yet. Shall I cook some noodles for you?" Grandma Lin asked Bonnie as she came out of the kitchen.

"No need, I bought steamed buns from the cafeteria. Grandma, just give me some vegetables, I'm so hungry I don't want to move." Bonnie hadn't eaten much that morning, and she didn't have enough energy for the next trip to the sea.

Next time I'll have to ride a bicycle there; it'll save me some energy. Most people can't find that cave.
