Chapter 444 The Difference Between Needles and Needles
Yi Chichi thought it made sense and planned to mend the clothes after they were dry.
He Yunsong had dinner at home in the evening. His wife was not back because she had to be on duty tonight.
When Wen Shi learned about this, he made braised pork and stir-fried liver tips for him.
He was very satisfied with the meal and kept praising Wen Shi's cooking skills. He also lamented that he had suffered a lot in terms of diet during the time he was at sea.
Yi Chichi, who had just eaten a shrimp, curiously asked, "What do you eat at sea?"
"It's mainly dry food, and hot meals and hot dishes are only available during the first few days of leaving."
Before he finished speaking, he picked up another piece of meat, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it, with a look of satisfaction between his eyebrows.
Yi Chichi was not surprised by this result. Given the limited conditions nowadays, going out to sea is indeed a torture.
Sailors who sailed long distances in later generations suffered the same fate.
"Didn't you encounter any fellow villagers' fishing boats?"
“Yes.”
He Yunsong knew what she was going to say, so he drank some water, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and explained, "If you come across a large fishing boat, you can trade some food with the locals. Smaller ones are impossible to trade, and as for seafood..."
Sighing, he said helplessly, "I was really scared when I was floating on the sea."
"The seafood fresh out of the sea is so fresh, even when eaten raw it's delicious. You guys are just typically afraid of eating it."
Others want to eat but can’t, but they just see enough.
Wen Shi and He Yunsong agreed with this.
"Yes, when we first arrived on the island, we were both a little uncomfortable with the climate and the food."
When I was in the southwest, I suffered for a while because I was not used to the food, but it was fine after I got used to it.
The same thing happened when we came here, but later on, “after we got used to it, we both started eating seafood like crazy.”
Too much, not worth the money.
The quartermaster is a good money-maker. In order to save money, he grows and raises everything he can by himself, and picks up or buys the things he can't.
When the fishermen come back from the sea, they buy piles of low-quality seafood at dirt-cheap prices.
"It was delicious at first, but then it got numb!"
Pointing to the meat on the table, He Yunsong said sincerely, "I still like to eat meat."
Before he finished speaking, he picked up another piece and stuffed it into his mouth.
Yi Chi Chi's mouth twitched, "It's all yours, eat slowly."
Look how hungry the child is.
Wen Shi hummed, "I made this especially for you, don't worry about us fighting over it."
This was a bit too much. He Yunsong rolled his eyes and said, "I'm not the kind of person who eats alone."
As he said this, he picked up a piece for each of the couple.
"Eat, eat more. Braised pork won't taste good if it's left overnight."
People nowadays don’t care about this at all. It’s good enough to have something to eat. Who cares whether it tastes good or not after being left overnight?
The braised pork is made with pork belly, which is a bit fatty for Yi Chichi.
She looked at the pieces of meat in the bowl, then at Wen Shi.
The man noticed her gaze and took the piece of meat. He used chopsticks to separate the fat from the lean meat and gave it to her.
“Eat!”
"Okay!"
Yi Chichi happily started eating. He Yunsong squinted at her and said, "Sister, you really don't know how to eat. Fatty meat is so delicious. Why do you prefer to eat lean meat that fills your teeth?"
"I also like seafood and fish, why don't you like it?"
Yi Chichi asked instead of answering, and He Yunsong tutted, "I'm afraid of eating."
"I'm tired of eating fatty meat."
This is not a joke. According to her mother in her native world, she especially loved eating fatty meat when she was two or three years old. One Spring Festival, her father got an authentic local pig from somewhere and raised it on grain and pig grass.
It’s not big, only about 100 pounds, and the meat is really delicious.
It doesn't have any fishy smell and is very fragrant.
My mother made some steamed pork with rice flour, which she enjoyed very much. But then she got hurt and she never ate fatty meat again after that.
There was also a photo taken. Her face was covered with greasy spots, and she was holding a piece of steamed pork with rice flour in her small hands. The pork had several holes in it and was more fat than meat.
When He Yunsong is not working, his temper is a little erratic.
The same goes for chatting.
The topic changed very quickly. While he was eating meat and rice with big mouthfuls, his attention was focused on the embroidery frame.
"Are you working again?"
“It’s open!”
"What are you embroidering?"
"Now embroidered portrait."
That means there is something else.
He murmured, "What do you think about letting my wife learn this? She's also good at using a needle, so it shouldn't be difficult, right?!"
He didn't look very sure, but his tone was full of anticipation.
Wen Shi and Yi Chichi exchanged glances and felt that there might be something wrong with his brain.
"Your wife is a good doctor, why are you so upset that she wants to learn this?"
Wen Shi really couldn't figure out what he was thinking. "Besides, does Comrade Xiao Zhang know that you have this idea?"
He Yunsong looked guilty, and Yi Chichi understood immediately and said meaningfully, "I don't know."
He nodded, indeed he didn't know.
"I feel sorry for my wife. Look, she has to go to work even though she's pregnant."
"That's what she wants."
If you don't want to, you can apply for a shift change and stay in the medical office until you give birth and then return to the hospital to start your shift.
Although there is no maternity leave or anything like that now, the management is actually still humane.
No matter how short of manpower we are, we will not use pregnant women to death.
Yi Chichi said angrily, "It's okay if you just say this to us, but don't say it in front of Xiao Zhang. It's fine if she doesn't think too much, but if she starts to think that you don't respect her, you'll be the one who suffers, and it will also affect your relationship with her."
Wen Shi nodded in agreement. "The most important thing for a couple to live together is mutual respect, tolerance, and understanding. If you have any ideas, you can communicate with her instead of making decisions on your own."
He Yunsong: "...I just had this idea, but I didn't think I would actually put it into action."
Yi Chi couldn't help but complain, "I advise you not to have this idea. Xiao Zhang knows what he is doing. Besides, although we both hold needles, there is still a difference between needles."
The difference is quite big.
The requirements for needle holders are quite high.
Zhang Xin can't do her job, and she can't do Zhang Xin's job either.
Not wanting to continue on this topic, she asked, "How long will you rest this time?"
"I have half a month's vacation, what's the matter?"
He Yunsong, who didn't expect her to ask this, looked flattered.
Wen Shi also looked at her curiously.
Yi Chichi said, "I want to know when Wen Shi will go out to sea."
Wen Shi understood immediately that it was time to prepare to go back.
I want to determine the date of departure.
"I don't know the details yet, I have to wait for notification."
Yi Chichi, "...then when will I go back?"
Wen Shi didn't want her to leave, but he also knew that after he went out to sea, she would not be comfortable staying alone in the family area.
So he said in a negotiating tone, "How about leaving in a week?"
Worried that she wouldn't agree, he pretended to be pitiful and pleaded, "Just think of it as staying with me for a few more days."
He Yunsong couldn't bear to watch it and complained sharply, "You're talking as if my sister agrees and you can accompany her."
I have to go out at 5:30 in the morning and come back at 5 or 6 in the evening. It is normal to not come home at night if I have something to do.
