Chapter 279 Live Confession
Chapter 279 Live Confession
"You young people can go on a date, but the three treasures have me and their grandmother with them. Go ahead and have fun." Mother Lu motioned for Han Xue to go out and play with them.
The aunt next door was so embarrassed that her face turned pale. She quickly stood up and said, "Well, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Mother Lu smiled and hurriedly called her: "Wait a minute, sister. We don't have anything good to give as a return gift at home. Wait a minute, I'll get you some fresh seafood. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, so it can add something to the table."
After putting the child on the crib, Mother Lu rushed into the kitchen. After a while, she returned with a basket filled with about two kilograms of shrimps.
"It's not a good thing either, so please don't despise it, sister."
"How do you have such fresh shrimps?" The aunt next door was stunned. Can this thing be taken out casually?
"Well, that guy who just left knows someone from the airline. He asked them to bring it back from the island. Girl, take it back and try it."
She mechanically reached out to take it, her lips twitching as she said, "Well, thank you, sister. I don't know what to call you, sister?"
"My husband's last name is Lu... What's yours, sister?"
"My husband's last name is Wang. Haha, nice to meet you. I can tell from the first glance that Sister Lu is no ordinary person. I've finally gotten to know her today. Um, let's visit each other more often in the future. Are you going to live here forever?"
"My husband lives here. As for me and the Fu family sister, we have to go to the island to take care of the children. You know our second son is in the army, so it's impossible for my second daughter-in-law to be the only one in the family compound. How can she take care of three children by herself? Besides, she has her own things to do. I don't have much to do, just take care of the children and cook for them."
"Hehe... Hehe, Sister Lu is so lucky. Okay, let's get together again when we have time. I'll be leaving first. Thank you for the shrimp."
After saying that, he left in despair.
When Mother Lu saw her leaving, she laughed uncontrollably.
Mother Fu asked in confusion, "Sister Lu, what are you laughing about so happily?"
"Haha, you don't know. She was so arrogant when she came in just now, but she got slapped in the face. It made me laugh to death. Look at her later. She is completely different from when she first came in."
Mother Fu didn't know what had just happened next door. After hearing what Mother Lu said, she felt that the colorful expression on the other person's face was particularly funny, and the more she thought about it, the more interesting it became.
"Don't let her dare to look down on others in the future." Fu Ma echoed.
Fu Ling and Lu Beichen came to the river, and Fu Ling took out two or three large carps weighing seven or eight kilograms from the boundary bead.
"Honey, is that enough? One will be enough for tomorrow, and the remaining two will be for later. If you take good care of them, they shouldn't die."
The two of them came out to get some ingredients for tomorrow. There were many people in the family, and Fu Ling wanted to make this New Year's celebration more lively.
"Well, that's enough. The pheasants I caught in the mountains last time have grown up. I can take a few out to eat during the New Year."
"What a pity! There are so many ingredients in Zhuhai of my world, but I can't take them out. Xiaofeng is very knowledgeable. I'm afraid we'll be discovered if I take out the sea bream."
"Well, then don't take it for now. There will always be a chance in the future. Wife, are you going back now?"
"How is that possible? I brought you here to find wild vegetables for the hot pot. How could I go back so soon?"
"Hmm? What wild vegetables?"
"Hey, come with me. See that piece? It's all edible, and it's super tender. Just blanch it and you're good to go."
Fu Ling ran to the direction of his finger. There was a large area of land by the river. In later generations, this kind of land would not even be used to feed pigs.
"Is this thing edible?"
"Of course, it also has a common name, wild watercress. Pick the top part. The rhizome below is too old, so the tip is the most delicious." Fu Ling taught on the spot. This large piece is enough for the whole family to enjoy.
"The ones nowadays are growing better than those later on. Maybe it's because of the better environment... Hey, isn't that wild spinach up ahead?"
Fu Ling noticed a crop of wild spinach, which looked very similar to spinach and was a precious medicinal herb.
She said with great joy, "Husband, you continue to pick wild watercress while I go and see if there is any wild spinach left."
"Okay, be careful not to fall into the water." Lu Beichen warned.
"Okay~" Then he went to look for it happily.
Fu Ling also found shepherd's purse nearby, which can be used to make hot pot and is very delicious.
She knows all this thanks to Tik Tok. When she watches videos, she often sees these wild vegetables, and when she has free time, she will go to the countryside to look for them.
The villagers also taught her which wild vegetables were edible, and she learned a lot during that time.
Then she saw some wild vegetables whose names she had forgotten but were edible.
Fu Ling was particularly happy when picking these. It was more interesting than being at home.
"Wife, they've all been picked over there."
"Okay, I've discovered several more kinds of wild vegetables here, and I've brought some into the Realm Beads to plant. Soon we'll have an endless supply of wild vegetables." Free food is always delicious.
These vegetables were not even eaten by pigs in that era, but they can be sold for dozens of yuan per pound in later generations.
Lu Beichen felt that his wife was easy to support! Even without the things in the space, she would be happy for a long time just with these wild vegetables.
During the on-site teaching again, Lu Beichen also started looking with samples.
It was around four o'clock when the two of them finished work and prepared to go home.
"Honey, have you noticed that there are a lot of people outside today?"
"Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and some families are still preparing for the New Year and getting ready for tomorrow's needs, so naturally there will be more people."
"You have a point. It's really lively. I like this kind of atmosphere. Unlike before, it was just me and Yibao. Besides eating New Year's Eve dinner, we would watch the Spring Festival Gala together at night. In fact, it became less and less interesting every year."
Lu Beichen had always had a question, and he couldn't help but ask it out loud: "Wife, why didn't you get married in your previous life? Aren't there a lot of outstanding people in your place?"
Fu Ling's lips curled up as she looked Lu Beichen up and down and said, "What can I do? You're not there. Not everyone is as tolerant of me as you are. Although there are many excellent men there, who knows what they are like behind the scenes? I like you because you look just like my taste. That's why I was so moved when I met you."
Who could stand such a live confession? Looking at Lu Beichen's expression, it was clear that his words touched her heart.
His eyes were so bright that they were filled with love.
He leaned over and whispered, "Wife, I am my only one. I used to think that marriage was just a compromise, just the responsibility of continuing the next generation. Until you came along, I felt that love is also a part of life."
