There are twenty or thirty bags in total.
Gu Weizhou knew his wife liked to eat rice, so he kept a bag for himself.
After emptying the supplies, Gu Weizhou gave them grain coupons, meat coupons, and money. This was a private transaction; even if it was speculation, as long as they didn't say anything, no one else would know.
Gu Weizhou had to make several trips to carry all the supplies on the ship, while Ruan Yunxi guarded the supplies and Gu Weizhou went back to pull the cart.
In front of Gu Weizhou, Ruan Yunxi couldn't take advantage of the space.
When Gu Weizhou brought the cart, it was full of supplies. He pulled it from the front, and Ruan Yunxi pushed it from behind when they went uphill.
Gu Weizhou said, "Don't push, you might hurt your hand."
Ruan Yunxi shook her head: "It's okay, I'm not that delicate!"
In Gu Weizhou's opinion, his wife was the most spoiled.
Lian City is not a flat coastal city; on the contrary, it is hilly with quite a few slopes.
Gu Weizhou's load looked heavy, but it wasn't actually that heavy. After each trip back, he only needed to rest for about ten minutes to recover.
The women in the residential compound, seeing them hauling so much stuff, asked curiously, "What are all these things?"
Fortunately, Gu Weizhou was thoughtful. When he pulled the cart, he brought a tarpaulin. The tarpaulin covered the contents of the notebook, so even if someone could read the words, they wouldn't be able to see what was inside.
When asked, they said it was a daily necessity.
Under Gu Weizhou's watchful eye, the sisters-in-law, no matter how curious they were, dared not lift the lid to take a look in front of him.
The supplies were delivered to the second bedroom, which is now empty. Gu Weizhou sleeps in the master bedroom and needs to hold his wife to fall asleep every day.
When Sister-in-law Sheng brought Xiao Yingtao and her brother upstairs, Gu Weizhou had already finished preparing. He opened the rice container and saw that the grains were distinct, very white, and looked very fragrant and soft: "Do you want to eat rice for lunch? I'll cook rice for you."
Ruan Yunxi nodded: "I want to eat fried rice with eggs."
"Okay, I'll make you fried rice!" Gu Weizhou washed and cooked the rice; the rice had to be cooked before he could make fried rice.
Seeing Sister-in-law Sheng and her two children arrive, Ruan Yunxi smiled and opened the courtyard gate: "Come in quickly."
"I heard from your sisters-in-law that you bought a lot of things back, but you didn't show them to them. I remember you went out to sea to fish, didn't you?" Sister-in-law Sheng asked curiously.
Ruan Yunxi knew that she could deceive others, but she couldn't deceive Sister-in-law Sheng.
She whispered something to Sister-in-law Sheng, which startled her. Sister-in-law Sheng's eyes widened, and she nervously looked her up and down for a moment: "Are you alright?"
Ruan Yunxi shook her head: "He's incredibly lucky, he escaped unscathed and even brought back a ship full of supplies."
Sister-in-law Sheng gave a thumbs up: "You two are really... If it were me, I would have been scared to death. It's good that you're alright and back!"
Ruan Yunxi smiled; only she and her husband knew the danger they had faced.
Ruan Yunxi took out cup noodles, chocolate, canned luncheon meat, and canned fruit, and stuffed a basket into Sister-in-law Sheng's hands. She told her to cover it with a cloth later so that the sisters-in-law wouldn't know what was inside.
"There's noodles in here?" This was the first time Sister Sheng had ever heard of it.
Ruan Yunxi nodded: "I'll make one for you, so the two children can try it!"
Sister-in-law Sheng nodded with a smile.
Ruan Yunxi tore open the packaging, took out the boiling water that Gu Weizhou had boiled, added the seasonings, and then covered it with a lid.
"Wait two or three minutes, and the noodles will be ready in boiling water!" Ruan Yunxi instructed.
Little Cherry and Little Potato were already perched on their laps, curiously watching the cup noodles soaking in the broth.
Little Cherry swallowed hard and asked, "It smells so good!"
Little Potato, with a greedy look, asked, "Auntie, what's this?"
"Noodles!" Ruan Yunxi patted the heads of the two children, one big and one small. "They can eat when they're cooked. One small bowl for each of them."
"Thank you, Auntie!" Little Potato said happily.
Little Cherry hugged Ruan Yunxi and said sweetly, "Auntie is the best! I love Auntie the most!"
Ruan Yunxi was very receptive to this, and the corners of her mouth turned up.
Gu Weizhou, who was cooking in the kitchen, watched his wife beam with joy as the little boy coaxed her with just a few words. He thought to himself that their child would definitely be sweet-talking and good at coaxing people in the future.
After all, mothers fall for this kind of thing, and if their children don't know how to sweet-talk, they can't compete with the sweet-talking Cherry for affection.
