“Then we can take Auntie to go beachcombing. She’s just arrived here and has probably never done it before!” He Weidang said after thinking for a moment.
As long as Auntie is willing to play with them, they'll definitely get some treats once they're all familiar with each other.
That's right. In He Weidang's mind, beachcombing is a fun game that both adults and children enjoy, and Fang Yuan will definitely like it too.
"Well... that's a good idea. Bringing back some seafood will at least add something to our dishes," Liu Lan nodded.
She agreed to teach Fang Yuan how to go beachcombing.
Having lived on the island for several years, she knows the situation here best.
Food and other supplies were mostly delivered from outside.
The things in the sea are naturally grown, and these military wives and local islanders often go to the beach to gather seafood.
It all depends on luck; everyone is supplementing their own meat and vegetable supplies.
"Shall we take Auntie out to go beachcombing tomorrow? I'll go talk to her." He Weidang said, and was about to run out.
He figured that since his aunt was so good to them, he, as the messenger, was sure to get some good food.
Liu Lan grabbed his collar quickly: "You come back here right now. Your Aunt Fang just arrived, and she hasn't even packed her things yet. We'll talk about it in a few days."
This kid is impulsive and rash.
"Oh, I see!" He Weidang pouted and sat back down.
His delicious food is gone...
Not long after Fang Yuan returned home, another middle-aged woman appeared outside the yard.
"Who are you, sister-in-law?"
Fang Yuan looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him and asked in confusion.
Of course she knew who this woman was, but having just arrived here, she shouldn't know who she was, which is why she asked the question.
"I am Luo Meihong, the political commissar's wife. My husband, Lao Zhou, is your son Xiao Zhuozi's uncle. You can call me Aunt Luo. You must be Xiao Fang?"
"Hello Aunt Luo, I'm Fang Yuan, please come in!"
Upon hearing her name, Fang Yuan immediately recognized her from his memory.
This couple were indeed Zhao Qingzhuo's elders and his "backers".
Commissar Zhou was once a capable subordinate of Zhao Qingzhuo's father, and Zhao Qingzhuo owes a lot of gratitude to him for taking care of her here.
"No need, go inside. I brought you something, here you go!" Luo Meihong handed over the basket in her hand.
"Aunt Luo... Look, I haven't even come to visit you yet, and you, an elder, are already sending me things. I feel so embarrassed."
Fang Yuan said, feeling embarrassed to accept the money.
This person is a bit too enthusiastic, just like Liu Lan.
"Take it, it's just a few dumplings. You came here with the army, and your husband is away on a mission, so I have to take care of you for him!"
Without saying a word, Luo Meihong handed the basket to Fang Yuan.
"Oh? I already ate a serving of dumplings, and I'm still full. I really can't eat these dumplings. You should take them back and eat them with your uncle!"
They gave her dumplings to eat, one or two at a time.
Are people here living such a good life?
How could she possibly accept that?
"You've already eaten? Was it Liu Lan from next door who gave it to you? Zhao Qingzhuo really dotes on you, he was worried you'd go hungry and made so many people bring you food!"
Luo Meihong laughed as soon as she heard that.
That guy went back and married a beautiful wife, which made her a little envious.
However, he certainly has good taste; the girl in front of him is truly beautiful.
Her round eyes look at you, making it easy for you to develop a liking for her.
"Ah? I..." Fang Yuan blushed with embarrassment.
She now realized that the gifts were all specially requested by the original owner of this body's man.
This has made everyone aware of it, which is incredibly embarrassing.
"Take it, I've already brought it, why would I take it back? You can keep it to eat tomorrow, and we can see whose cooking is better, mine or your sister-in-law's!"
Without saying a word, Luo Meihong handed the basket to her.
Fang Yuan couldn't refuse after several attempts, so he had no choice but to accept it.
"Thank you, Aunt Luo. I'll accept it without hesitation. When Zhao Qingzhuo comes back, I'll have him thank you in person."
"That's right. Then you should get some rest. If you need anything, just let me know!" Luo Meihong continued to instruct.
"I understand, thank you Aunt Luo!"
The two exchanged a few more words before Fang Yuan took the basket and went back into the house.
After entering the house, she put the dumplings directly into the storage room of the cabin to eat the next morning.
Upon arrival, she immediately felt the various forms of care and concern from the original owner's man.
Fang Yuan had no idea how she should face this man when he returned.
Oh well, if we can get along, great; if not, we'll just be bed partners.
After all, she remembered that the man was quite handsome, and she wouldn't lose out by sleeping with a handsome guy.
Fang Yuan slept soundly.
The next morning, Fang Yuan ate the dumplings from the previous day for breakfast.
She went to the convenience store and bought vinegar and dried chili peppers, as well as two pounds of brown sugar, two pounds of fruit candy, and one pound of White Rabbit milk candy.
I noticed that Moutai and Wuliangye were placed on the top shelf of the counter.
She quickly asked about the prices: Moutai was eight yuan and Wuliangye was five yuan.
And since there were only two bottles left of each, she bought them all without hesitation.
The shop also sells meat and vegetables, although the selection is limited, but since she had nothing else, she bought some of everything to take home.
After returning home, I stored the wine in my spatial storage space, and also put the meat and vegetables in the storage room of my spatial storage space to keep them fresh.
While there was still time, she took the gifts she had distributed the day before and visited several of her neighbors to become familiar with them.
Walking through this row of small courtyards, apart from her family and the family next door, all the residents were officers at the regimental level.
The men and women in those households all looked to be in their late thirties or forties, and some of their grandchildren were already several years old.
No wonder the house has three bedrooms; it seems Zhao Qingzhuo put a lot of effort into this house.
As a result, she could only play with Liu Lan next door.
Fortunately, this family has good character, so they should be able to get along well.
Looking at the empty vegetable garden in his yard, Fang Yuan went back inside, grabbed a handful of fruit candies, and went to Liu Lan's house.
Half an hour later, I returned to the yard with several small packets of vegetable seeds.
Chili peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, cabbage, radishes, green beans, and also eggplants and chives.
These few vegetables are basically enough to eat, plus a few cloves of garlic and scallions and you're all set.
She had never planted vegetables before, but she had watched some related videos. These vegetables were all grown from small seeds.
She scattered the vegetable seeds one by one on the ground.
After scattering the soil, I dug some soil from my spatial storage and spread it on top, then watered it again with well water from my spatial storage.
The system said that if there is spiritual energy in the space, then there must be spiritual energy in the soil and water as well.
With the remaining seeds, she chose a patch of land in her space, scattered them all there, and then watered them – that was it.
Except for the storage room in the wooden house, where time is frozen, the flow of time in other parts of the space is the same as outside.
But the space has a spiritual energy, so it will definitely grow better than the ones outside.
After planting the vegetables, I looked at the sea in the space and thought about what might happen.
Fang Yuan decided to go into the water to test his ability to breathe underwater.
Unexpectedly, once she got into the water, she couldn't stop; her ability to breathe underwater is amazing.
She could breathe freely in the water and didn't feel cold at all; she felt even smoother than the fish in the water.
Seeing the various large seafood swimming past, Fang Yuan couldn't resist reaching out his claws...
