Worried that his wife might catch a cold, Li Chenmo gently carried her to the bedroom and let her continue sleeping. Then, he went to check on the spiritual herbs growing in the greenhouse.
At first, he and his wife only tried to plant the spiritual herbs to serve as cover in case people asked about the ingredients for her costics and tonic wine.
They never expected the spiritual herbs to thrive in the outside environnt. As long as it could grow, it was enough.
Unexpectedly, the spiritual herbs were not only growing, they looked not much different from the ones grown by his wife in her space. Besides the spiritual herbs, even those ginsengs were growing very well.
After checking the spiritual herbs and ginseng, Li Chenmo went to check the vegetables and fruits. This ti, he was stunned when he saw the size of the crops was far from normal.
Not to ntion anything else, just the chili peppers planted in the front courtyard were double the normal size. Besides the size, the ti needed for them to reach maturity also seed to be cut down by half.
Feeling curious, he went to check each greenhouse and picked so of the strawberries grown in the back courtyard. The strawberries were as big as half of his palm and each weighed around 15 to 20 grams.
After washing the strawberries, he took a bite. The strawberry was as sweet as honey with a hint of tartness. It was also very juicy and fragrant.
He ate three strawberries and picked more for his wife and children. When he returned to the house, he saw his wife had already woken up and ca out from their bedroom.
Seeing her husband holding a bamboo basket, Lu Jueyu asked, "Husband, when did you return? Why didn't you wake up?"
Li Chenmo walked over and gave her a kiss before replying, "I ca back an hour ago. I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't wake you."
Lu Jueyu hugged her husband and asked, "Have you eaten?"
Li Chenmo nodded and replied, "I ate so pancakes at the store."
Hearing this, Lu Jueyu said, "Then, let's go inside and eat sothing."
"Okay."
After they went to their bedroom, Lu Jueyu brought her husband into her space and went to wash her face. When she ca out, her husband had already washed the strawberries and cooked two bowls of noodles.
As they ate, Li Chenmo said, "Wife, I will send a letter to inform our people in the capital. You don't have to worry about Bai Xue'er's matter anymore. It's just that we need to fill up the warehouse in the mountains more often now."
"Was the demand very high?" Lu Jueyu asked.
Li Chenmo nodded and explained, "We didn't sell the grains in our store besides the one in the capital. But the amount of grain output every month is at least 300 tons. I'm worried that we will attract unwanted attention if we sell it at our store too."
Hearing this, Lu Jueyu said, "Husband, if I rember correctly, the warehouse in the mountain is only able to store around 500 tons at most. Including the flour and other items, we need to go at least twice a month."
"I have asked our people to clear out five more warehouses. Those warehouses can store at least 2,000 tons each. We will use three warehouses to store coarse grains, one to store rice, and the rest to store flour and other things. This way, you don't have to go to the mountain too often."
Thinking about his wife's pregnancy, he added, "When you enter the third trister, we will fill up all the warehouses and limit the sales. So, the stock should be able to last until you finish your postpartum period."
When she heard this, Lu Jueyu smiled and said, "I will listen to you."
Recalling sothing, Li Chenmo suddenly said, "Wife, when you finish your folic acid, let's go to the hospital. You are almost 12 weeks, and it's ti for another checkup."
Hearing this, Lu Jueyu counted for a mont and realized that her pregnancy had indeed entered the 12th week. So, she nodded and said, "Okay."
After taking a long nap inside her space, the two of them made so snacks and dim sum before they took a shower and left the space.
anwhile, in the county town hospital, Han Yuheng was sitting on the chair beside his wife's bed. He looked at her and was lost in thought.
The doctor said that his wife was only sleeping and nothing was wrong with her health. But she had been sleeping for so long without a sign of waking up.
They did so tests, but the results showed nothing unusual. Even the doctors were at a loss as to what was wrong with Bai Luyun's condition.
While he was worried sick, Bai Luyun was trapped in her dreams.
After she fell into a deep sleep, she had been watching her life experiences as if watching a movie. She saw herself from the mont she was still inside her mother's womb.
Now, she was watching how she t her husband for the first ti.
She always thought that they t due to a coincidence. But now, she finally knew that her husband had long harbored feelings toward her. Even when the two of them were still children, he had long been protecting her from the shadows.
When her family arranged a blind date for her with Zhang Damu, it went wrong, and the one who ca was Zhang Ermu.
She saw herself talking with Zhang Ermu while her husband watched from behind the tree.
Standing beside her husband in her soul form, she saw his pain as clear as a mountain spring. Reaching out, she wanted to wipe away the tears on his face, but her hand went past him.
She could only watch him with heartache as he endured his own pain. When he left, the scene changed.
