But you can't question her vegetable-growing skills.
Gu Cheng smiled and said, "I didn't say you don't know how to grow vegetables."
He just wanted to try it himself to see if he could grow vegetables.
Liu Yinyin propped up her chin and smiled: "I don't think it's a big problem, just wait for the result."
Moreover, Gu Cheng is busy with work and has little time to take care of vegetables on weekdays.
Speaking of this, Gu Cheng looked up at Liu Yinyin and said in a deep voice: "After resting tomorrow, I have to go out to sea for a while again."
Liu Yinyin was no longer surprised when she heard the news. She asked calmly, "Is it dangerous? How long will it take?"
Gu Cheng paused and said, "Not sure, maybe a month."
Liu Yinyin felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. She also knew that it was impossible to say that there was no danger at all every time Gu Cheng went on a mission.
But this is his job, Liu Yinyin can only support him.
Liu Yinyin picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in his bowl, and smiled: "When you come back, the vegetables at home should be ready to eat."
Gu Cheng looked apologetic and said, "After I finish this mission, I will definitely take time to spend more time with you and the children."
Liu Yinyin smiled and said, "You said that. I've been waiting for it."
After working for an entire afternoon, Liu Yinyin finished planting several wooden boxes of vegetables.
Soon the next day arrived and the sky was just getting light.
The family of three washed up and prepared to go out.
The market on the island opens early, and I heard there is also a breakfast shop.
Liu Yinyin didn't make breakfast and thought of finding a shop in the market to make some.
This gathering was an open transaction, so they couldn't go empty-handed.
The family has been eating a lot of rice recently, so Liu Yinyin was reluctant to bring rice with her. She only packed ten kilograms of flour to exchange for things at the market.
When the hens at home start laying eggs, we can use the eggs to exchange for food.
In order to make it convenient for people from outside the island to come in and set up stalls, the gathering place was set up near the pier.
It was still early and there were not many people at the market.
Gu Cheng was holding Gu Yanyan, and the family of three had just arrived.
I saw several breakfast shops at the intersection, some selling wontons and dumplings, some selling steamed buns and steamed cakes...and some selling porridge and soy milk.
Further inside, there are several long rows of stalls for villagers to display their things.
Liu Yinyin asked Gu Yanyan: "What do you want to eat?"
Eat breakfast first and then go shopping.
The little guy's eyes widened when he saw the stalls selling snacks. He wanted to eat everything!
Finally, the family of three decided to eat seafood porridge. There was no choice but to eat it because there was only a small table next to the stall.
Otherwise they have to eat while walking.
Liu Yinyin directly ordered a large portion of seafood porridge and three oyster pancakes.
The seafood porridge is generous in size and contains crab, shrimp, abalone, razor clams, mushrooms and celery.
Looks good, tastes good too, fresh and delicious.
Of course, the price was not cheap. Reluctant to use white flour, Liu Yinyin secretly gave the stall owner four yuan.
After the family of three had eaten and drunk their fill, more and more people came to the market.
"Captain Gu..."
Tian Pinggui's family of four also came and as soon as they arrived, they saw Gu Cheng's family leisurely eating breakfast.
"Brother Tian, sister-in-law..." Liu Yinyin greeted them with a smile, then turned to the stall owner and asked for two more oyster pancakes for the eldest and second daughter.
Oyster pancakes are not expensive, only 20 cents each.
It’s also a bad year, otherwise it would be cheaper.
Ma Guilan said cheerfully, "There weren't so many food stalls last time. If I had known that these things could make money, I would have also set up a stall to sell cakes."
She can also make steamed buns and dumplings.
Tian Pinggui glanced at her and said, "Don't show off your skills to others."
Ma Guilan almost couldn't hold back her breath: "My cooking skills are poor, but don't you enjoy the delicious food every day?"
Tian Pinggui snorted twice: "I'm just afraid of wasting food."
Liu Yinyin smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, I'll set up the stall with you next time."
Come to think of it, it's not a bad idea. I can make some snacks and take them to the market, then exchange them for some seafood or dried goods from the people on the island.
Ma Guilan smiled and said, "Yinyin is just like me, she has a high level of awareness."
In the final analysis, Tian Pinggui was just afraid that she would embarrass him if she set up a stall outside.
He is a military officer, but he doesn't even have this awareness.
There were many people gathering together, and the two families did not travel together, so they separated after a while.
There are really many small stalls in the market, selling all kinds of seafood and dried goods.
There are also villagers selling various handicrafts, winnowing baskets, baskets, straw hats...
Some people exchanged it for food, and some even exchanged it for eggs.
Liu Yinyin wants to buy everything she sees.
I bought two straw hats and several winnowing baskets of different sizes.
Seeing an old man selling square bamboo baskets, Liu Yinyin bought all of his bamboo baskets in one go.
Gu Cheng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Do you want to buy so much?"
There are more than ten of them. It's not that he is afraid of spending money, but he just can't think of what these bamboo baskets are used for.
The baskets are quite small and can't hold much.
Liu Yinyin explained confidently: "These square baskets can be used as storage baskets. Put two in the kitchen, one for seasonings and one for eggs."
"You can also put two in the bathroom. When the time comes, you can nail two of them on the wall, one for toiletries and one for dirty clothes."
You can put a few in the bedroom, and they can also be used to store socks, underwear, etc.
It is comfortable to look at things placed in the basket.
Anyway, in Liu Yinyin's eyes, these storage baskets are so useful that she thinks ten are not enough!
Gu Cheng really admired Liu Yinyin. He didn't know how she had so many new ideas in her mind.
Since it is useful, buy it.
Liu Yinyin didn’t buy much dried seafood, as she had already bought some from Zhao Yuan before.
Other food...Liu Yinyin bought some garlic, turmeric, and dried chili peppers.
I also exchanged two handfuls of rice noodles, a bag of white rice cakes, and a small bag of fresh sweet potatoes.
For snacks, I bought a bag of yellow rice cake, a bag of big hemp twist, a bag of kumquat candy, and a bag of peanut crisps.
Gu Benben originally held Gu Yanyan in his arms, but now his hands are full of things, so he can only let Liu Yinyin carry the little guy.
There are too many things. I can’t take any more if I buy more.
The ten kilograms of flour I brought with me have all been used up, and I have also spent a lot of money and bills.
Gu Cheng said to Liu Yinyin, "I'm going to go back and put my things away first. Can you and Yanyan sit here for a while?"
Liu Yinyin nodded: "You go ahead, I'll just take a stroll."
Liu Yinyin wasn't willing to leave even though she hadn't finished walking down the street yet.
After Gu Cheng left, Liu Yinyin walked for a while and saw an old man selling water jars...
There were not many people coming to the market to buy water jars and altars. The old man was worried about the lack of business when he suddenly saw Liu Yinyin coming over with her child.
