"I understand, sister, don't worry."
Lu Zhengting helped Lin Zhiheng with his luggage and left. Lin Qingyan had nothing to do for the time being, so she tidied up the things in the room again.
Meanwhile, Lin Sisi was still making breakfast for Gu Mingzhou.
At the dinner table, Gu's mother suddenly asked them a question.
“Mingzhou, Sisi. Tell me the truth, the reason you two don’t have children isn’t because you haven’t tried hard enough, but because there are barriers and conflicts between you, and you don’t want to sleep together, right?”
Neither Gu Mingzhou nor Lin Sisi expected that Gu's mother would have guessed this.
Lin Sisi immediately wanted to tell Gu Mingzhou that he liked Lin Qingyan. If Gu's mother found out, she would probably discipline Gu Mingzhou and make him consummate their marriage.
"Because of that."
"It's because we haven't tried hard enough."
Lin Sisi was interrupted by Gu Mingzhou after she had only uttered three words.
At the same time, he also received a warning look from Gu Mingzhou.
"Not trying hard enough?"
Mrs. Gu was clearly not satisfied with the answer; she frowned deeply.
If they don't have children because they don't sleep together, then this problem is easily solved.
She helped them resolve their conflict and got them to sleep together, believing that Lin Sisi would soon get pregnant.
But Lin Sisi's body is perfectly fine, yet they still can't conceive, which seems to be quite a mysterious thing.
The only solution is probably through spiritual means.
After dinner, Gu Mingzhou pulled Lin Sisi aside and warned her, "You'd better not talk nonsense in front of my mother, otherwise, I'd rather retire from the army than tolerate you anymore, and I'll have to divorce you."
Lin Sisi was somewhat bewildered.
She didn't know whether she should believe Gu Mingzhou's words. Was Gu Mingzhou really willing to give up his current position?
Will he give up his career, which he has built up over many years, because of a divorce?
She had no answer in her heart, and dared not take the risk.
I can't tell Gu's mother about that.
After tidying up the house, Lin Qingyan wanted to prepare the ingredients for her dinner party.
She already knew the address of the supply and marketing cooperative, so she went there by herself, bought meat and eggs first, and then found a place to take out seasonal vegetables from her space.
Fortunately, it's summer now, and most vegetables are already on the market, so there are more types of vegetables that can be taken out of the space.
She took the basket and went out alone. When she got outside, she didn't see Sister Zhang or Yang Qiuyue, so she went to the supply and marketing cooperative by herself.
This supply and marketing cooperative is only three rooms in size, and the items inside are mostly small daily necessities, as well as firewood, rice, oil, salt, seasonings, and some meat and vegetables.
Lin Qingyan first bought three catties of pork belly, plus meat coupons at 80 cents per catty, for a total of 2.4 yuan plus meat coupons.
It includes not only meat, but also ribs and offal.
Given the strong smell of processing pig offal, and the possibility of inconvenience to her neighbors, she decided against buying it.
Pork ribs are cheaper than meat, only 50 cents a pound, and no coupons are needed. She bought four pounds, which can be used to make sweet and sour pork ribs, braised pork ribs, stewed pork ribs, and many, many other dishes.
The supply and marketing cooperative also had live fish, so she bought two. The salesperson took a net bag, put the fish in the net bag, and she had to kill them herself when she got home.
I already have oil, salt, sugar, vinegar, and soy sauce at home, so I don't need to buy any more. I also bought two pounds of tofu, one pound of dried kelp, and three pounds of eggs before leaving the supply and marketing cooperative.
Carrying a basket, I found a secluded spot, entered the space, and picked eight or nine cucumbers. Cucumbers can not only be used in cooking, but also eaten as fruit. They are rich in vitamins and have very little sugar content, so I don't have to worry about them causing excessive sugar intake.
Then, using his mind, he dug up a few potatoes, three carrots, five onions, a dozen cloves of garlic, a dozen large, red, and tempting tomatoes, a handful of cowpeas, and a small handful each of cilantro and scallions from the ground.
Feeling that it was about time, he left the space and prepared to go home.
Even if you're missing a few other things, you can take more from the space once you get home.
If we plant some vegetables in the yard later, it will be a better cover for taking vegetables from the space.
