She was a little tired and fell asleep on the bed without realizing it.
When he woke up, Lu Jinyuan was pasting oil paper on the window.
Ran Jinnian rubbed her eyes and saw that he had almost finished sealing the window: "Honey, how long have I been asleep?"
"It should only take about an hour." Lu Jinyuan finished pasting the last piece of oil paper on the wardrobe, then flipped it over and said, "The wardrobe issue is resolved. The family of the commander of the 4th Armored Vehicle Regiment is leaving in a few days, so the wardrobe is perfect for us."
"No rush."
These things are not urgently needed.
“Zhou Xiangyang is going to town tomorrow, so I gave him the list and asked him to bring the things back for me.” Lu Jinyuan is very reliable.
"Wouldn't that be too much trouble?"
Ran Jinnian had met Zhou Xiangyang before, so she naturally remembered him.
Lu Jinyuan wiped his hands: "He happens to be on vacation tomorrow."
"Then we have to invite them to dinner tomorrow." Ran Jin thought about how many things were on the list, and how running errands must be quite an ordeal for them.
Lu Jinyuan didn't want to trouble her: "No need to cook at home, I'll treat him to a meal at the cafeteria."
“Honey, I’m not that delicate. I’ll just eat at home.” Ran Jinnian disagreed. Other women with big bellies had to work in the fields, but she was just cooking.
She came to the military region to live with him, not to become a capitalist's mistress.
Seeing her insistence, Lu Jinyuan said, "Alright, he'll go to town tomorrow morning, but it'll be afternoon by the time he gets there and back."
That means it's time for dinner.
"Then I need to think about what dishes to make tomorrow."
Ran Jinnian was heavily pregnant and it was inconvenient for her to go to town. Lu Jinyuan had to go to work tomorrow, so he asked someone else to help him with the shopping.
Everyone in the family compound grows vegetables, so they definitely don't need to buy vegetables. They only need to buy meat from the town.
Ran Jinmian had the foresight to bring out a lot of cured meat and sausages, which she then showed to everyone.
There were no vegetables.
Lu Jinyuan brought out a large basket of vegetables from the kitchen, which included radishes, potatoes, cabbage, eggs, and pork.
"Where did you get these dishes?" Ran Jinnian asked happily.
"I just went to a nearby farmhouse. I was worried that we didn't have any vegetables at home, so I bought some in the village." Lu Jinyuan knew that his wife had a spatial ability, but since they had just arrived at the military region, they had to be extremely cautious about everything.
"Are you alright?"
"It's nothing." Lu Jinyuan knew what she meant.
The families of military compound residents would secretly buy things from nearby farmers; it was an open secret among them.
"This cabbage was given to me by Sister-in-law Qin. She said thank you for teaching Gou Dan to do his homework," Lu Jinyuan said, pointing to the cabbage.
Lu Jinyuan didn't expect that while he was out for a while, his wife was at home teaching Gou Dan to do his homework.
He was initially worried that she wouldn't adapt to life here, but to his surprise, she integrated very quickly.
"Sister-in-law Qin, you're too kind." Ran Jinnian hadn't expected Qin Shulan to bring vegetables.
"Sister-in-law Qin's husband is the battalion commander of the Third Regiment. The couple are both very honest and worth getting to know."
Seeing that Ran Jinnian was about to cook, Lu Jinyuan quickly took the rice and said, "Wife, I'll do it."
When Ran Jinnian saw him cooking, she would wash the vegetables.
Rice cookers already exist in this era, but not everyone can afford them.
Everyone still uses a steamer to cook rice.
Lu Jinyuan first washed the rice, then poured it into a boiling pot to cook. When it was half-cooked, he took it out and poured it into a steamer to continue steaming.
You can save the rice water to drink.
Lu Jinyuan brought back so many dishes, and Ran Jinnian took some beef from her space, thinking of making a clear stewed beef.
"The smell is too strong." Lu Jinyuan wasn't against his wife eating it, but everyone was very poor in resources and was very sensitive to smells.
Ran Jinnian immediately came up with a solution: "I can make it in my space, and then bring it out."
Lu Jinyuan immediately closed the courtyard gate.
