Chapter 42: Food



The winter afternoon sun shines into the house, making it warm. In addition, Lu Shiyi added radiators in every room, so his home is warmer than that of ordinary homes.

Lu Nan entered the house and found that Lu Shiyi's house had undergone great changes. The windows were replaced with large windows with three panes of glass, allowing more sunlight to come in. The walls were painted white and the floor was paved with cement, which was not as dark and yellow as other people's houses.

"Lu Nan, I'm Su Jin." After taking off her coat, Su Jin poured him a cup of warm honey water and handed it to him. "Today is New Year's Eve. If you're not in a hurry, stay and have the New Year's Eve dinner before going back. Ayi misses you too."

Su Jin put the cup on the table next to him: "Ayi, you two talk, I'm going to make the New Year's Eve dinner."

"One more person." Lu Shiyi looked at Su Jin and said, "We're going back now, and we probably won't get home until tomorrow morning."

"No problem, clean up the guest room in a while!" Su Jin smiled, "You two can talk here."

After Su Jin left, Lu Nan's face showed sadness and tears in his eyes, but he didn't let himself cry out loud.

"Cry." Lu Shiyi handed him a handkerchief. "I'll clean up the guest room for you. You stay here by yourself."

After Lu Shiyi finished speaking, he stood up and left the study. Lu Nan sat on the stool and burst into tears. Ever since his parents were taken away because of their status, he had not been demoted because of his military merits. Who would have thought that his grandparents would frame his parents with many crimes in order to protect his uncle's family.

Because of the protection of the leader, Lu Nan was sent to the armed forces department to work as a logistics staff, so that Lu Shiyi could protect his life.

Lu Shiyi leaned against the wall, feeling somewhat sad. Not only did the leader suffer, but the Lu Nan family was not spared either.

Lu Nan is a stubborn child. He won't cry unless he is really hurt.

Hearing Lu Nan crying, Lu Shiyi walked towards the kitchen with light steps and hugged Su Jin from behind.

"Wife, Lu Nan might have to stay here for now. I want him to be my driver." Lu Nan is a good driver. "Or put him in the logistics department."

"Go to the logistics department. His condition doesn't look good. If you fall, not only will you be unable to take care of Lu Nan, you may also be in trouble." Su Jin reminded Lu Shiyi.

Now, those who are finding fault with professors and the government, as the situation becomes more serious, even the military may be implicated.

Lu Shiyi placed his chin on her shoulder and said, "Wife, you are right to worry. I have to protect you, my family in the capital, and even more so, the old leader and the team members below."

After he finished speaking, Lu Shiyi's eyes became firm. He couldn't fall down, and he couldn't let anyone get hold of him.

Under Wu Jun's suppression and the cooperation of two political commissars, the armed forces department is now peaceful. If the situation outside is not good, several families should pay special attention.

"Ayi, for future safety, while the Minister is here, you should transfer the troublemakers to other places. We should protect as many people as possible." Su Jin was cutting pork belly. "I'm making eight dishes and a soup today. Shall we have rice or mixed grain rice?"

"You cook here. I'll go clean up the guest room and talk to Lu Nan." Lu Shiyi kissed her left cheek. "Since there are outsiders here, we have to sleep together tonight."

After Lu Shiyi finished speaking, he left the kitchen. Su Jin felt her cheeks burning and she felt quite resentful towards Lu Shiyi for being so indulgent.

Since getting the marriage certificate, Su Jin has slowly let down her guard under his care, and she is not repulsed by what he just said.

She was preparing the New Year's Eve dinner with nimble hands and feet. She sliced ​​the pork belly into slices with the knife. Suddenly, the knife cut across her left finger. Blood flowed down her hand to her wrist, staining a walnut-carved gourd given to her by Su Jin's mother red.

The blood on the walnut-carved gourd was slowly devoured and finally returned to its original state.

Su Jin looked at the walnut carving in surprise, and was suddenly pulled into a strange yet familiar world.

She found that the street in front of her was the one where she had rented a house. On the left was a bustling commercial street, and on the right was a general hospital where she had worked.

A voice rang in her mind: "Master, hello, I am the little space bell."

"This... is..." Su Jin stuttered. Seeing that her rented home was also there, and her belongings were all untouched, she said, "Did you come with me?"

"When you died, an earthquake struck, and the epicenter was right on the commercial street. Therefore, everything was destroyed," Little Bell said dutifully. "The space is connected to various shopping platforms. You can buy what you need in this era there. The prices are set."

Su Jin picked up her new mobile phone at home and opened it. It turned out that all the shopping platforms she had downloaded were there, and the things that Pin Shaoshao had not received before were all placed in the house.

"Lingling, these should be available many years after me, right?" Su Jin looked through the electrical appliances and medicines and found that some of the medicines had an expiration date of 3099.

"Yes, this space is randomly bound. It's a multi-faceted shopping platform with prices priced according to different eras. The owner can also sell current items online, and the proceeds can be converted into current use." Lingling said hurriedly, "The owner can also bring in people they trust."

Lingling's words put Su Jin's heart at ease. Lu Shiyi often went out on missions, so she could get medicine for him from the hospital.

"How do I get out?" Su Jin expressed satisfaction with her space. "Can I add more after I take the things away?"

"Master, you can leave this space just by thinking about leaving. The system will replenish the items you take from the mall and the hospital," Little Bell explained in detail. "The hospital has a limited supply of life-saving medicine, and you need money to buy it. You can sell some stamps and old items on the platform, and use the proceeds to buy medicine or non-replenishable items."

After Su Jin heard that Lu Shiyi went into the kitchen, she wanted to go out.

When she returned to the kitchen, she found that one second had passed. It turned out that the time in space was not equal to the time outside.

"Xiao Lingling, can I have a serving of chicken feet stewed with crab meat?" Su Jin was thinking of chicken feet stew, and a serving of chicken feet stewed in an enamel bowl appeared next to the stove.

Su Jin widened his eyes in disbelief and quickly put the chicken feet beside him into the space.

"Master, I put the chicken feet in the freezer. That's where the food you took from here is stored. The ingredients in your time were the most natural and sold at a very high price." The voice of the little bell appeared in her mind. "Just tell me in your heart what you want to get better. If there is someone around, I will put it in the space and wait for you to take it in a secret place."

Su Jin nodded, but wondered whether to tell Lu Shiyi. Since they were living together, the space wouldn't be hidden for too long.
