The next day, Su Wan woke up very late.

After she got up, Lu Chengchuan walked over.

The letters on the bedside table were gone, and Lu Chengchuan left her a note.

"Wanwan, I'll steam some chicken and egg custard for you and keep it warm on the stove. Remember to eat it when you get up. Then write to me and take it and mail it to me."

Su Wan looked at the note and smiled foolishly for a while. This stinky man really did what he said.

I got up, washed up, and finished the bowl of egg custard. I went to the kitchen to pick up the eggs and took out some vegetables.

I remembered that after we had dinner together at their house that day, He Lina kept saying that the dishes she cooked were delicious, and even the cucumbers were many times more delicious than the ones she cooked at home.

These past two days, I've been eager to ask her for cooking advice.

How could she know that it is not only about good cooking skills, the most important thing is that all her ingredients are produced in the space, and the vegetables are especially fresh and sweet. Cooking skills alone are not enough without good ingredients.

She went to find a cloth bag, put all the vegetables in it and prepared to send it to He Lina later.

I also specially packed a few eggs in it, which are the best for Zhuangzhuang to eat.

She was about to go downstairs to drop off the food at He Lina's place and then go to the black market again.

Today she planned to discuss with the rice, flour, grain and oil seller to see if he would help her sell the goods.

If the cooperation was good, she would sell it to him at a low price after the crops were harvested in a few days.

Her space was twice as large as it was at first, and after harvesting the crops this time, she would get at least four bags, so she finally made a big profit.

It can also be considered as paving the way for grain sales in advance.

She was holding the bag of vegetables in one hand and preparing to lock the door with the other hand when she heard a burst of shouting and cursing from upstairs.

The door opposite was suddenly opened, Jinhua poked her head out from behind the door, looked at Su Wan without saying a word, and walked towards the staircase stealthily.

Su Wan locked the door and walked to the staircase, where she saw Jinhua standing on the stairs leading to the second floor, eavesdropping attentively with her ears perked up.

Seeing this, Su Wan also stopped and listened.

From the sound, it seemed that the one scolding was an old lady.

He kept cursing about the hen that didn't lay eggs, which caused the Fu family to be extinct from having grandchildren.

She even threatened the other party, saying that she would force her son to divorce her family.

The old lady kept scolding, but Su Wan never heard anyone talk back. Su Wan felt aggrieved for the person being scolded.

Su Wan had never dealt with the two military wives upstairs, so she didn't know them, let alone their respective situations.

After listening for a while, it was always the old lady who was scolding, and she kept scolding the old lady for not being good at home. Su Wan became angry as she listened.

Don't listen to it anymore. If she does, she might rush up and argue with that swearing old lady.

Just as I was about to go down, I suddenly saw He Xiuna coming up with a bowl in her hand.

Jinhua no longer sees her family holding bowls, because recently someone has been coming to her house with bowls every day, either to borrow this or that.

Seeing He Lina holding a bowl in her hand, she immediately turned around and left.

"Sister Jinhua, Sister Jinhua, please don't leave. My son Zhuangzhuang needs sugar when he eats. Do you have any brown sugar that you can lend me?"

Upon hearing this, Jinhua didn't even bother to pay attention to the excitement and ran away, mumbling as she ran.

"No, I won't lend it to you even if I have it. You guys are used to taking advantage of me, right? You all come to my house to borrow things, but you're not taking advantage of me enough..."

"Sister Jinhua, don't run away. I'll just lend you a little bit, just enough to strengthen yourself for a meal. Hey, Sister Jinhua..."

“Bang!”

Jinhua closed the door heavily.

He Xiu Na covered her mouth and laughed so hard that she fell backwards. As she was laughing, the cursing from upstairs rang out again.

He Lina looked upstairs and said with a curled mouth: "Could it be that Mrs. Fu is here again?"

"Do you know him?"

He Xiu Na nodded. "This old lady is not a good person. When she starts scolding, she can scold two people at once without stopping."

"Who is she scolding now?"

He Xiu Na looked upstairs and said in a low voice, "Who are you scolding? Of course it's that Liu Yan's wife."

After saying that, he pulled Su Wan's arm and said, "Let's go downstairs and talk. My Zhuangzhuang is still in the yard. I'll tell you in detail when we get downstairs."

As Su Wan followed He Lina downstairs, she said angrily, "This is a military compound, isn't there any supervision? Just let her mess around here."

"Alas, even an honest official can hardly settle family affairs. This kind of thing is not easy to manage, and no one is willing to manage it. Besides, Mrs. Liu Yan of the family didn't say anything, so how can we outsiders manage it?"

The two talked as they went downstairs, and Su Wan handed the bag in her hand to He Xiu Na.

"give."

"What is it?"

"My husband went out early to buy some vegetables today. I think they are very fresh, so I'll give you some. There are also a few eggs in them. I'll give them to Zhuangzhuang to make steamed egg custard."

He Xiu Na pushed it away for a while, but finally accepted it.

She asked Su Wan to help her take a look at Zhuangzhuang first, and then she put down her things and came out.

Su Wan responded and went to the courtyard to find Zhuangzhuang.

Under the big tree in the yard, several children were squatting there playing house.

Two of them were from Jinhua's family, and Zhuangzhuang also gathered there to join in the fun.

Various grasses and leaves were placed on the ground, in piles, representing various kinds of food.

Su Wan just looked at them from a distance and did not go forward to disturb them.

Compared with those children who did not follow the army, these children can be considered happy. They have always had the love of their mothers and fathers, which is many times better than those who are separated from their parents.

Thinking about the baby in my belly, it will come into this world in a few months.

In a few years, I will be like these kids, running around the yard and playing.

I just don’t know whether Lu Chengchuan will take them to his side and never separate them again when the time comes.

Just as I was thinking about it, Fu Lina hurried over.

Seeing that her son was having a good time with the other kids, she pulled Su Wan to sit on a stool.

After sitting down, He Lina looked to the right and saw nothing, so she spoke to Su Wan about Mrs. Liu Yan.

"Mrs. Liu Yan has been married to her husband for four or five years, but she has never been able to get pregnant.

The old lady of the Fu family was widowed when she was young, and she had only one son in her life. She finally gave birth to her son and found him a wife, hoping to have a grandson to carry on the Fu family line. However, after waiting for a year, her daughter-in-law still didn't get pregnant.

She looked for folk remedies everywhere, and every once in a while she would send a big bag of medicine saying it was for children, and forced her daughter-in-law to drink it. At first, Liu Yan's wife was quite cooperative and drank it whenever she was asked to.

Until one time I took the medicine and suddenly had a heavy bleeding. Fortunately I went to the hospital, otherwise I would have died. Do you know why?"

When He Lina said this, a look of regret appeared on her face.

"Why?" Su Wan also wanted to know the answer, so she asked quickly.
