Chapter 481 Crab

Liu Yinyin was silent. She really didn't know how to respond. In the future, Zhang Siyu's thoughts were normal.

But in this era, it is absolutely shocking and unconventional. No one will accept or understand it.

Not sure if Zhang Siyu was joking, Liu Yinyin analyzed: "Don't be fooled by the cuteness of the triplets. Raising them to this age is not easy at all."

"I used to have a job, but after my period got worse, it became inconvenient to do anything, so I had no choice but to quit my job."

"It was so hard to give birth to a child, and I still have to take care of the child. Anyway, I am completely tied down by them. It is difficult for me to go out."

Zhang Siyu is a female soldier. The army is her second home, and they want her to stay at home to give birth to and raise children.

For her, it was harder than climbing to the sky.

"Sister-in-law, according to what you said, giving birth is too scary."

Liu Yinyin smiled and said, "Anyway, after careful consideration, having another child is a bit hard, but it's worth it..."

Zhang Siyu sighed: "I really envy you and Brother Gu."

The man is talented and the woman is beautiful, and the sons they have are cute too. This is what marriage should be like.

Marry for the sake of marriage, not for the sake of marriage.

Liu Yinyin smiled but said nothing. Rather than saying that Zhang Siyu didn't want to get married, it would be better to say that she hadn't met the right person.

Song Yumei prepared a sumptuous lunch, with a large table of dishes.

Beef with coriander, lamb stewed with radish, stir-fried pork with chili, braised spare ribs, blanched shrimp, and large crab with scallions and ginger.

There are also two vegetarian dishes, stir-fried tofu with garlic sprouts and cabbage stewed with vermicelli.

Song Yumei said to the couple, "The logistics department sent two boxes of crabs this morning. They are all very plump. You can take one box back to eat later."

There were two boxes of crabs, but even the three of them couldn't finish them all.

There was nothing else to do, so after lunch, Gu Cheng suggested leaving.

Commander Zhang had something else to do in the afternoon, so Song Yumei didn't keep them. She just said, "Come and play again when you have time."

Before leaving, Song Yumei pulled Liu Yinyin aside and said, "You must have spent a lot of money on the gifts you gave me today."

Liu Yinyin smiled shyly: "Auntie, I didn't have anything prepared last time. It was really rude. This time I thought of giving you two more things."

Song Yumei didn't mean anything else: "Your uncle and I are also from peasant families. We don't care about those empty things. We would be happy if you just give us some special products from the countryside."

Liu Yinyin understood and said, "Okay, I'll bring something simpler next time."

In addition to a box of crabs, Song Yumei also gave them a box of oranges.

After leaving the military area, the family came to their new home.

Not far away, Gu Cheng asked Xiao Zhao to return to the army first, and took a box of big crabs back with him to distribute to the soldiers.

If we leave it until tomorrow, I’m afraid the crabs will die and it would be a shame to waste them.

However, after being away for about a month, the new house was quite clean. We just cleaned it up, put down the quilt and started living there.

The same goes for the kitchen, you can just clean up and start cooking.

There was no food, so we had to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some to feed several young kids.

Gu Ben originally wanted to go out to buy something to eat, but Liu Yinyin stopped him.

"I'll go, you take care of the kids."

It's quite cold outside. After a whole morning of hard work, it's not a good idea to take the triplets out.

Gu Cheng glanced at her and said meaningfully, "Be careful."

Liu Yinyin: “…”

Liu Yinyin naturally did not go to the supply and marketing cooperative. Her new house was near the railway station and quite close to the black market.

Liu Yinyin went directly to Aqiang.

He found a deserted place on the road and smuggled out 50 kilograms of flour.

A Qiang was very happy to see Liu Yinyin: "Big sister, what do you want to change this time?"

Liu Yinyin thought: "Cloth, cotton, or flesh."

The family has consumed too much fabric during this period, so Liu Yinyin wanted to stock up some more.

As they were all old customers, A Qiang gave Liu Yinyin two pieces of defective cloth, two towels, a pound of cotton, and a piece of lean meat.

Before going back, Liu Yinyin smuggled out five kilograms of rice, two kilograms of eggs, a handful of celery, a handful of Chinese cabbage, and a few potatoes from the system.

We have oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and other supplies at home, and we only stay for one day, so there is no need to buy more.

After thinking about it, Liu Yinyin smuggled out another bag of finger biscuits and a bag of rice cakes.

These are all foods suitable for children, and the triplets can also eat some.

Go back after shopping.

In the evening, Liu Yinyin made fried meat with celery and spicy shredded potatoes, and the staple food was white rice.

I steamed egg and lean meat soup for the triplets.

The next morning, the family of five went shopping in a department store and bought a lot of food and daily necessities.

Afterwards, we went to the state-owned hotel for lunch.

At about three o'clock, Xiao Zhao drove to the gate of the community to pick someone up.

Before dark, the group returned to their home.

Zhou Xiaomei heard the noise and came out: "Yinyin, you're back?"

Liu Yinyin nodded: "Sister-in-law, I will give you what you want later."

When she left, Zhou Xiaomei asked her to buy a can of maltose. Liu Yinyin bought two cans of maltose in the department store yesterday.

But there were so many things she bought that Liu Yinyin couldn’t remember which bag she put the malted milk in, so she had to look for it first.

Zhou Xiaomei waved her hands: "Don't worry, do you want help?"

Liu Yinyin shook her head: "No need, we'll clean up slowly."

I brought back a lot of things this time, including a box of oranges given by Song Yumei, two pieces of cloth, two towels, and a pound of cotton that I exchanged from Aqiang.

The rest was a bunch of stuff I bought at a department store, including a set of teacups, a thermos, two enamel basins, and five packets of milk powder.

The triplets can now eat complementary food and drink two bowls of milk powder a day at most.

The demand for milk powder at home is much less than before.

After a while, when the triplets are able to eat, Gu Cheng will no longer need to ask someone to send milk powder from other places.

There are also two cans of maltose, two cans of premium biscuits, two packs of White Rabbit candy, two boxes of snacks, and four canned fruits.

A box of apples and a box of bananas.

I bought a lot of things. I was also worried that the weather would be bad in the future, so I stocked up some things for the winter.

As for food...Liu Yinyin rarely has the chance to go out now as she is taking care of triplets alone, and if she doesn't go out she won't be able to buy food.

The family of six, on the surface, now lives on Gu Cheng's ration, plus he asks others to help buy some fine grains from time to time.

If there was still not enough food, Liu Yinyin would simply smuggle food out of the system.

There were some things that both of them knew clearly, but neither of them broke the window paper.

After packing up, Liu Yinyin put a can of maltose and eight oranges in her bag and gave them to Zhou Xiaomei.

Zhou Xiaomei smiled and said, "Someone is going to kill pigs at Dongpo Mountain tomorrow. Can I go buy some pig offal?"

She thought, tomorrow is Saturday, so she should buy some pork offal to make brine, which will be just enough for her two sons to take to school on Sunday.

Liu Yinyin nodded and stuffed five yuan into Zhou Xiaomei's pocket.
