That evening, Sangshen threw a tantrum and acted spoiled for a long time before Buling finally gave up her original idea.
Bling couldn't resist his persistence and said, "Let's make this clear beforehand, it can't be tonight."
Sangshen seized on the loophole in her words: "Then tomorrow night?"
Bling pushed him away: "It's so hot, stop being so sticky, let's talk about it tomorrow night."
Sangshen didn't press the matter further. He figured that Xiao Hei Niu wouldn't refuse him, and saying more would be tantamount to agreeing!
It's been a month since I returned from Kyoto, and I've completely adapted to married life. At least I don't instinctively attack or defend myself like before when I wake up in the middle of the night and feel someone in my bed.
She's gotten used to the presence of mulberries now and no longer wakes up in the middle of the night. She feels like she's completely integrated into this era.
However, she still didn't plan to tell Sang Shen about the space. Maybe she would in the future, but she couldn't do it now, which caused her space utilization rate to plummet.
However, her quality of life not only did not decline, but actually improved considerably.
As for the reason...
That evening, Mulberry walked into the yard with a large package strapped to the back of her bicycle, attracting the attention of everyone in the yard, including Bling.
Aunt Lan: "Little Sang, what's going on?"
Mulberry: "Oh, my aunt sent these. She heard that Lingling likes to eat mountain produce, and they have the most of these things there. So she sent some over to us, saying we should eat them and then tell her." He didn't hide anything at all.
Buling walked over, tied him up, and unloaded the things. Seeing the jealous look in Aunt Lan's eyes, she pretended to say, "Auntie, really, why send so much? I feel so embarrassed!"
Aunt Lan: ....
Everyone: ...
But your smile is practically reaching the back of your head!
"Xiao Bu, can you and Xiao Sang finish all this?" Aunt Xu asked.
As expected of her sister-in-law, Sister Zhou immediately understood what Sister Xu meant: "That's right, Xiao Bu, it's such a waste that you can't finish it all. Why don't you share some with us? Perfect timing, I just bought some tofu, I'll give you some tofu in exchange."
Bling looked at Mulberry, signaling him to make the decision.
Everyone followed her gaze to the mulberry tree; quite a few neighbors were thinking the same thing as Sister-in-law Zhou.
Although they have connections in the mountains, it's not easy to get mountain products in the city, especially since these things are not only juicy but also filling.
The man from the mulberry tree straightened his back with a swagger and said, "We're all neighbors, it's only right that we help each other out." That was his agreement.
The neighbors who heard this in the courtyard lit up and went home to prepare their things. Mulberry also took this opportunity to move her things into the house.
After moving the goods into the house, he gestured to Buling, who had come with him, to close the door slightly. Then he took out a large piece of cured meat from the package, stuffed it into the cupboard, closed the door, and pretended that nothing had happened, continuing to take out more mountain goods.
Bling: ...
"Did your aunt give this to you too?"
Sangshen nodded and quietly explained to her, "My aunt said that we should exchange some of these mountain products with the neighbors, so that they can help each other out if anything happens in the future."
Buling gave a thumbs up: "Auntie is wise!"
She only vaguely understood social etiquette and acted based on intuition. Now that her aunt was guiding them, Buling was very grateful.
So when the neighbors came to exchange their mountain goods, Buling was very enthusiastic, and the neighbors were happy to exchange them. At the same time, they regarded Buling and Sangs as one of their own, but that's another story.
Too much of a good thing is bad; exchanging half of the mountain goods is about enough.
This was just the beginning. In the following period, the two received packages one after another, from Kyoto, the southwest, and the northwest, all of which contained local specialties.
At first, the neighbors were jealous, but later they became numb to it. They thought that Xiao Sang and Xiao Bu must have been pampered at home to still be remembered so much after they got married.
If Aunt Lan and the others were just jealous, then Aunt Shen in the backyard was filled with hatred, especially when she saw Bu Ling receiving packages every few days; the resentment in her eyes was impossible to hide.
This day should have been her daughter's, but she had also heard that Sangshen's brother was the director of the Revolutionary Committee, so she could only feel resentment and dared not do anything underhanded.
Sangshen and Buling were arguably the best-off couple in the compound, but the neighbors weren't surprised at all. Anyone with eyes could see their status at home; even after they got married, their families still tried every means to subsidize them.
Is their life strange? Not at all!
However, this has both advantages and disadvantages. For example, Grandma Shi has been extremely enthusiastic towards Bu Ling and the other person lately, to the point of being overly enthusiastic!
That day, Bu Ling and Wu Yuanyuan went home together and saw Old Mrs. Shi waiting at her door.
"Xiao Bu, Xiao Wu, are you two off work?"
An impatience flashed in Bu Ling's eyes, but a friendly smile remained on her face: "Yes, Grandma Shi, is there something you need from me?"
Grandma Shi walked to Bu Ling's side and took her hand: "What could be wrong, Grandma? I just heard that you take good care of our An Song and An Bo, so I specially made you a pair of cloth shoes. Here, see if they fit?"
As she spoke, Grandma Shi took out a pair of cloth shoes. The shoes had fine stitches, and it was clear that they were made with care.
However, Bu Ling immediately shook her head and declined, saying, "Grandma Shi, you're too kind. Xiang Ru and I are good friends."
Grandma Shi insisted, "Look at you, still being so polite with Grandma. Since you're friends with Xiang Ru, Grandma should take even better care of you."
