“Not quite enough,” said Mulberry.
"How about this, I'll ask Dongzi for a solution tomorrow."
After a moment's hesitation, he said, "Let's get more and send it to my second brother. His conditions are tough there, and it's not easy to get things in. Let's get as much as we can at once."
Bling had no objections: "Send some fabric too, children have delicate skin and need to wear good clothes."
"And my aunt and second sister-in-law also need clothes made." As she spoke, Buling pulled out paper and pen and began to make a list.
“We also need to send food. Unlike us, my second brother doesn’t have easy access to food. My aunt doesn’t have any food over there, so my second brother and sister-in-law have to help out. Now that they have a child, food will probably be even scarcer. If we send more, they can eat more.”
Buling slowly sorted out his thoughts.
She wasn't a petty person. Besides, her brothers from the Sang family had helped her a lot when she got married and pregnant, so even if it was just a matter of reciprocity, she should still put in extra effort.
"Send some candy too. My second brother uses his brain a lot and is prone to low blood sugar. In these situations, candy can be life-saving."
Bling wrote them down one by one.
She only remembered the candy incident on the spur of the moment. She recalled watching a movie about it in her past life. Researchers would carry two pieces of candy in their pockets while working, and eat one when they were overworking their brains to replenish their sugar levels and maintain their brains' high-speed operation.
Sangshen didn't say anything, just listened to Buling's arrangements. Suddenly, he kissed Buling on the cheek: "Lingling, you're so good."
Bling rolled her eyes at him: "Do you need to tell me?"
"Finally, take some of the urine rings that Little Star used. You don't need new ones; the old ones are more comfortable."
He wrote down more than half a page of details and handed it to Sangshen: "Copy it once. Same as always, one copy for each of you. Prepare as many as you can."
“Okay.” Sangshen obediently copied it down: “I’ll show this list to my brother tomorrow, and I reckon he’ll have to copy it down too.”
Bling glanced at the list: "These are all things that the more the better, there's never too much of them. Just copy them once."
Sangshen nodded, stuffed the copied list under her pillow, and pounced on Buling: "Now it's my turn."
Bling scratched him and let him be.
For an old married couple like us, there's no need to be fussy about this.
The two have a good relationship, so they naturally enjoy their sex life together.
...
The next day at noon.
While eating the staff meal, Buling asked at the table, "Sister Yuanyuan, Brother Lü, do you have any milk powder coupons? I'd like to trade with you?"
"Little sister, what do you need milk powder coupons for?"
Wu Yuanyuan: "Ling, you wouldn't, would you?" As she spoke, her eyes darted towards Ling's stomach.
"What are you thinking about?" Bu Ling scolded her. "It's my husband's second sister-in-law. She doesn't have enough breast milk."
"Oh~" Wu Yuanyuan drawled out, sounding slightly disappointed.
"Let's get down to business, shall we?" Bling steered the conversation back on track.
Lu Zhiwei shook his head. As a bachelor, he naturally wouldn't care about milk powder coupons, nor did he have any.
Wu Yuanyuan shook her head: "Ling, you know, all the milk powder coupons from my family have been given to my family."
Her sister-in-law gave birth to another daughter last year, but she doesn't like her at all and doesn't even want to breastfeed. Her mother had no choice but to feed her with formula.
Ms. Ma also said, "My family has none left."
"I have two at home," Zhu Zhizhi said. "I'll bring them to you tomorrow."
Buling thanked her, "Thank you, Sister Zhizhi, but don't you need any?"
Zhu Zhizhi smiled and touched her slightly protruding belly: "My mom is preparing it for me. If you need it urgently, take it first. I'm not in a hurry."
"Thank you, Sister Zhizhi. I'll pay you back when I have the money." Buling accepted her kindness.
"I have one here," Manager Zhu said finally.
"Thank you, Manager Zhu."
These days, milk powder coupons are hard to come by, and milk powder is expensive, so ordinary families really don't have a way to get them.
Of course, they are reluctant to spend the money, especially families with many children who can't afford it.
Getting three tickets at the restaurant was already a pleasant surprise for Bu Ling.
Of course, Buling didn't get these milk powder vouchers for nothing; she returned items of roughly the same value.
But she also knew that she was indebted to this person, since milk powder coupons were something that were valuable but not readily available.
But it's normal for things to go back and forth.
Sang Erge's child is the second great-grandchild of the Sang family, so naturally he is also highly valued.
After receiving the letter, not only Sang Shenbuling and his sister, but also the other children in the Sang family and their uncles got busy.
Collect various supplies and send them to the address from which the letter was sent.
Everyone in the family knows the nature of Sang Erge's job, and they wish they could prepare everything that Shao Shao would need from childhood to adulthood.
Also, there were supplies for my aunt, second brother, and second sister-in-law, which were mailed from all over the country.
When the logistics staff at Sang Erge's base came to collect the letter, they found the ground covered with packages.
The staff member who arrived empty-handed: ...
After learning that these packages all belonged to Sang Gong from their base, he scratched his head for a long time before finally coming to his senses from the mountain of packages.
He then resigned himself to contacting the base to borrow a vehicle, specifically emphasizing that one vehicle was not enough, at least two were needed.
As Bu Ling had imagined, Sang Erge's research base was located in a remote, untouched area deep in the mountains. A trip there would require crossing at least seven or eight mountains and taking at least five days round trip.
Conditions were naturally very difficult, and after my aunt arrived, she never went out again.
That day, she was washing diapers while worrying that her second daughter-in-law didn't have enough breast milk, and Shao Shao was crying from hunger every day, which broke her heart as the grandmother.
