Chapter 118 The Current Status of the Two Older Sisters
Chapter 118 The Current Status of the Two Older Sisters
The day after the fruit preserves were made, Su Nuannuan brought the milk powder home.
Because the milk powder cans have trademarks and production dates printed on them, Su Nuannuan had to use her mental power to erase them bit by bit in her spatial dimension.
After erasing the conspicuous words, Su Nuannuan felt relieved enough to take out the milk powder.
Su Nuannuan brought back a total of six cans of milk powder.
Chen Xiuting and Su Jianjun were both shocked to see that Su Nuannuan had brought back so much milk powder.
"Nuan Nuan, is there too much milk powder?"
Chen Xiuting touched the brand-new milk powder can and asked Su Nuannuan. Su Jianjun also looked at Su Nuannuan.
They didn't know anything about this novelty of baby formula. They thought one or two cans were enough for a baby, never imagining that Su Nuannuan would bring back six cans at once.
Su Nuannuan shook her head and said to the two of them.
"Not much, these six cans aren't enough for Liangliang and Yueyue. However, these formulas have an expiration date and must be consumed within three months. Besides the three cans for Liangliang and Yueyue, the other three cans are for the three children of my other two sisters."
The eldest sister, Su Jinjin, has twin boys who are now three years old; the second sister, Su Mianmian, besides Liangliang and Yueyue, who were born today, also has a three-year-old boy. Su Nuannuan doesn't show favoritism towards any of her three nephews.
The three boys are at a crucial stage of growth, so it's essential for them to drink some milk to supplement their nutrition.
However, this was just Su Nuannuan's suggestion; Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian still needed to decide how to distribute the six cans of milk powder.
Su Nuannuan wasn't worried at all that the two of them would fight over those six cans of milk powder. After all, they had grown up together, practically inseparable. If anyone bullied one of them, that person would be attacked by both of them.
In addition to the milk powder, Su Nuannuan also replaced the strawberry and grape preserves that Chen Xiuting and Su Jianjun had made with preserves she made using the spiritual spring water from her space.
The spiritual spring water in the space could cure all diseases after drinking it. Su Nuannuan was very fortunate that the effects of the spiritual spring water were not too miraculous. She would never dare to take out the kind of water that could turn white hair black after drinking a sip.
After Su Nuannuan switched the canned food, her family did not notice.
"Dad, Mom, please send the milk powder and canned food to my eldest and second eldest sisters tomorrow. I'm going back to school tomorrow too."
Today is Su Nuannuan's fourth day at home. She went to the train station to buy a ticket yesterday, and Chen Xiuting and Su Jianjun know about it.
Hearing Su Nuannuan's words, Chen Xiuting and Su Jianjun were both a little reluctant to part with her. However, the thought of their daughter going to study in Beijing filled them with pride.
Judging from the amount of money their daughter has taken out these past few days, they can be sure she's living quite well in Beijing. Beijing is the capital, and there must be plenty of opportunities for advancement; they can't let anything hinder their daughter's progress.
Although the two were reluctant to part, they had long been prepared for Su Nuannuan's departure.
Compared to the last time Su Nuannuan left, the two weren't as heartbroken. Besides, Su Nuannuan had already said that in a few months, Beijing University would be on winter break, and she would come back then.
"Nuan Nuan, how much did your classmate spend on these six cans of milk powder?"
Su Nuannuan did not hide anything and told Chen Xiuting and Su Jianjun the lowest price of milk powder on the market.
"One can of milk powder costs 68 yuan, so these six cans cost a total of 408 yuan."
After Su Nuannuan finished speaking, Chen Xiuting and Su Jianjun gasped.
Chen Xiuting looked at the milk powder with disbelief.
“It’s so expensive.”
Su Jianjun was also somewhat taken aback. He hadn't expected formula to be so expensive. His child had never had formula since birth, so he didn't know its price.
Su Nuannuan nodded, then said to Chen Xiuting and Su Jianjun, "When the time comes, let my eldest and second eldest sisters divide these milk powders among themselves. If they don't want them, they can sell them to other families on the island."
Infant formula is a scarce commodity now, and many people can't buy it even if they have the money. Although the military families on the island live a hard life, they definitely have considerable savings. If Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian don't need that much infant formula, they can sell it to others at a higher price.
Su Nuannuan believed that many people would be vying to have her.
Chen Xiuting and Su Jianjun understood Su Nuannuan's thoughts. Even if they couldn't exchange it for money, exchanging it for other daily necessities would be quite good. Besides, they felt that Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian definitely wouldn't sell the milk powder.
Unbeknownst to the three, Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian from Dachen Island in Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province, have already begged many people for food supplies for Liangliang and Yueyue.
The two sisters, who look somewhat alike, returned from outside.
They were Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian, Su Nuannuan's eldest and second eldest sisters. Since their marriages, the two sisters hadn't returned home. Two years ago, both Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian became pregnant, leaving them no time to go back. After their children were born, they had even less time.
Chen Xiuting originally wanted to visit the two sisters in Zhejiang Province, but Su Nuannuan was still young at the time and needed someone to stay with her. The three Su brothers, Da Liang, were in school, with Su Jianjun being the head of their class. Therefore, their families did not visit Su Jinjin and Su Mianmian while they were in postpartum confinement.
However, neither of them complained. They understood Chen Xiuting very well, and besides, it was they who requested to marry someone from so far away.
Su Jinjin has a striking and elegant appearance, while Su Mianmian is more gentle and graceful; both are rare beauties. Otherwise, their husbands wouldn't have fallen in love with them at first sight.
Su Jinjin, holding Su Mianmian's arm, whose face was somewhat pale, said with a worried expression.
"How about I go with you off the island tomorrow to see where we can find milk powder?"
Su Mianmian shook her head, a bitter smile tugging at her face.
"It's no use. We've looked in so many places, but we can't find any milk powder."
As Su Mianmian spoke, she couldn't help but start crying.
"It's all my fault for being useless. If it weren't for me, Liangliang and Yueyue wouldn't have gone hungry."
Seeing that Su Mianmian was taking all the blame, Su Jinjin quickly comforted her.
"How is it your fault? Ever since you gave birth to Liangliang and Yueyue, your health has not been good. Don't let yourself collapse before we find formula."
Meeting Su Jinjin's worried gaze, Su Mianmian patted her hand.
"Don't worry, I will definitely find the milk powder."
"What about your brother-in-law? Has he asked his parents?"
Su Mianmian shook her head, saying helplessly.
“I asked, and Brother Wu Qi contacted his family a long time ago. Now, my father-in-law and mother-in-law are trying to find connections everywhere to buy milk powder, but they just can’t get any. The old couple even sent over all the fine grains they have at home.”
Su Jinjin sighed and said.
"Now we can only rely on my parents. I wonder if they'll be able to buy milk powder?"
Su Mianmian gave a bitter smile.
She had no hope what Su Jinjin said. Her parents were just ordinary villagers; how could they possibly have the ability to get their hands on milk powder?
When I asked my family for help before, it was out of desperation. I never thought that Chen Xiuting and Su Jianjun would actually get some milk powder.
