Chapter 360: Space Upgradeable

Everything that Shen Yueyao thought about in her mind was to consider Su Xueyi's needs first.

She herself didn't realize that she was instinctively being nice to Su Xueyi.

After Su Xueyi packed up her things, Shen Yueyao also soaked her feet to warm them up.

After taking a shower, she went to bed and lay down under the quilt.

It wasn't until Su Xueyi finished washing that he came over and sat down beside the bed.

Su Xueyi looked at Shen Yueyao's wet hair and said softly, "It's easy to catch a cold if your hair is wet like this."

Su Xueyi knew that Shen Yueyao loved cleanliness and took a bath every day, but after taking a bath, what she hated most was doing her hair.

She often said that there were no hair dryers in this era.

Although Su Xueyi didn't understand what a hair dryer was, she roughly understood that it should be something that could dry hair.

Su Xueyi reached out and naturally straightened Shen Yueyao's hair, holding it in her hand, and said, "If you do this, it will easily get your clothes wet."

Shen Yueyao pouted and said, “But I have wiped my hair vigorously with two towels. It’s just a little wet, so it’s better.”

I went shopping for an entire afternoon and an entire night. I was quite energetic while shopping, but after taking a hot shower and lying on the bed, I felt lazy all over and didn't want to move at all.

It feels like after taking a shower, all the pores in my body open up.

Su Xueyi said in a clear voice, "This is not good for your health. Get up first and I'll help you."

Shen Yueyao said lazily: "I don't feel like moving."

In front of Amelia Su, Shen Yueyao could completely indulge her temper.

Because she knew that Su Xueyi would always be good-tempered and pamper her.

So she didn't realize that she was speaking to Su Xueyi in a coquettish tone.

Seeing her like this and hearing her act coquettishly, Su Xueyi felt so soft in her heart that she couldn't do anything about her.

Shen Yueyao felt a little sleepy even while lying down, and her words were confused at this moment.

But perhaps because Su Xueyi was by her side, she felt a sense of security in her heart, and it was easier for her to relax physically and mentally.

The two have been together for a long time, and Shen Yueyao actually has a sense of dependence on Su Xueyi.

Su Xueyi couldn't help but feel distressed when she saw that she was indeed sleepy.

He said gently, "Okay, if you don't want to move, then don't move."

As she spoke, Su Xueyi placed her fingers on Shen Yueyao's hair.

He took another dry towel and carefully and gently wiped Shen Yueyao's hair again.

In this way, Shen Yueyao's hair was half dry.

Shen Yueyao lay there, almost falling asleep with her eyes closed.

After Shen Yueyao's hair was half dry, Su Xueyi circulated the power in her body, and a surge of internal force surged out directly.

Soon Shen Yueyao's hair was completely dry.

Shen Yueyao was about to fall asleep when she suddenly felt a warm sensation on her head.

She suddenly woke up, reached out and touched her hair, and found it was completely dry.

Shen Yueyao was so surprised that she was stunned, and all her sleepiness disappeared.

She touched her hair, sat up, looked at Su Xueyi with shocked eyes and said, "You...what method did you use?"

Candles were lit in the room, and Shen Yueyao could see Su Xueyi's picturesque eyebrows and eyes through the candlelight.

The warm yellow light gave his Tudor a charming and attractive hue.

He said softly, "It's nothing. This way, you can have a good sleep and won't catch a cold."

When he spoke, his eyes were filled with a tenderness that could warm one's heart.

Shen Yueyao looked at Su Xueyi's hand and seemed to understand all of a sudden, "Did you use your internal energy?"

Su Xueyi smiled and whispered, "It's okay, it's just a little internal force."

Shen Yueyao felt sour and bitter in her heart, and was very moved.

Su Xueyi was really good to her. Even if he didn't say it, she could feel his care and love.

Like the continuous spring rain, it nourishes her heart.

Shen Yueyao sniffed, reached out to hug Su Xueyi's arm, gently leaned her head on his shoulder, and said: "Promise me next time that you won't use your internal energy like this."

"It's just hair. It will dry after a good night's sleep."

Su Xueyi touched Shen Yueyao's hair and said, "Silly girl, you never take good care of yourself. If you catch a cold, you will feel uncomfortable."

Su Xueyi didn't dare to take it lightly.

Although Yao Niang knew medical skills, in previous years, some people in the village caught colds in the winter, and some did not survive and died.

He didn't dare to think about what would happen to him if something happened to Yao Niang.

Probably going crazy!

The north wind was blowing outside.

It hit the window frame, making a sound.

Wind seeped in through the crack in the door, bringing a hint of coolness.

Even though there was a charcoal fire burning on the ground, there was still a hint of chill in the air.

Shen Yueyao seemed to have thought of something, raised her head and looked at Su Xueyi seriously.

At this moment, Shen Yueyao discovered that the simple dormitory could not hide Su Xueyi's noble and elegant temperament.

The candlelight was a little dim, but it seemed to be curled up on him as if to show favor. His cold white skin and the dim yellow light formed a sharp contrast in color, but it had a strong visual impact.

At this moment, he was sacred and cold, as if he was an immortal banished from heaven, as clear as snow.

Not to mention that there seemed to be a faint breath of wind and snow on him.

It can bring out a trace of unusual thoughts in people's hearts, making them want to pull him down from the altar.

Shen Yueyao swallowed and wanted to do something.

Su Xueyi seemed to sense something and said, "Yao Niang, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Su Xueyi stretched out his hand and gently embraced Shen Yueyao's waist. The temperature of his fingers seemed to burn Shen Yueyao's skin.

Shen Yueyao suddenly came back to her senses.

Thinking that yesterday afternoon was so crazy, she decided not to provoke Su Xueyi, as she had to get up early tomorrow morning to travel.

She blinked, calmed herself down, and asked, "Has your internal energy been affected?"

Su Xueyi explained in a gentle voice: "Using this little bit of internal energy is nothing."

Shen Yueyao then nodded.

Su Xueyi touched Shen Yueyao's eyebrows and said, "Aren't you sleepy? Lie down and rest."

As she spoke, Su Xueyi helped Shen Yueyao lay her flat on the bed, then covered her with a blanket.

Shen Yueyao looked at Su Xueyi with clean and soft eyes, "Aren't you going to sleep?"

"I'll read for a while, you can go to sleep first."

Su Xueyi is used to reading by lamplight at night. If he doesn't read at night, he will feel uncomfortable or unaccustomed to it.

Shen Yueyao nodded.

When she was at home, if Su Xueyi read with the light on at night, she would go to bed early.

But this time she was awake, and she couldn't sleep.

"I can't sleep either. Let's read a book together."

Su Xueyi touched Shen Yueyao's hair and said, "Are you really not sleepy? Didn't you want to sleep just now?"

Shen Yueyao said: "I just took a bath and I couldn't help but relax. After lying down for a while, I'm not sleepy anymore."

"I just had some business ideas, so I wrote down some plans."

Sometimes when Shen Yueyao wants to do something, she will write down these ideas.

Both of them sat at the table, each busy with their own work.

Su Xueyi was reading a book, and Shen Yueyao was thinking about business.

Even if the two people don't talk at this moment, they have a feeling of warm companionship.

Su Xueyi felt like she was back home.

It was the same when he didn't go to college. He would read books and write articles while she would draw some drawings beside him.

This made him feel very peaceful inside.

Time passed little by little, the north wind blew, and although the house was a little cold, it was filled with warmth.

It was midnight before the two of them went to bed.

After a good night's sleep, the two got up early the next morning, washed up, and had a simple breakfast.

Then he took a carriage home.

Of course, after arriving in Xiliu Town, Shen Yueyao and Su Xueyi went to Xinghua Village first.

Shen Yueyao mainly wanted to find her fourth brother to get sheep intestines from the farm.

However, when she returned home, Shen Yueyao found that her fourth brother and his wife were at home.

Cui smiled and explained, "Your fourth sister-in-law is pregnant. As soon as the diagnosis was confirmed, your fourth brother temporarily handed over the management of the hot pot restaurant to the subordinates. He will stay at home to accompany your fourth sister-in-law during this period."

Ning Mianmian said embarrassedly: "It's not that fragile actually. It won't affect my work."

Cui smiled and said, "How can I work? Now our family is well off. We don't have to do some things ourselves. We can just arrange for the housekeeper to do them."

"Your health is more important."

Ning Mianmian was actually quite touched. She didn't expect her husband's family to be so nice, and her mother-in-law was even better, loving her like her own daughter.

I cook different meals for her three times a day.

He even asked someone to go to the provincial government to buy a lot of precious things like red beans, black rice, red dates, and brown sugar to nourish her body.

These things are really hard to buy.

Even my third sister-in-law told her to just eat well and sleep well and not worry about anything else.

She said her mother was a very good person. Her family was not well off at that time, but her mother had been taking care of her since she was pregnant. She only let her work after she gave birth and finished the confinement period. Even the child was taken care of by her mother, and she took good care of her.

Now that our family conditions are better, naturally we want to give her all the good things we have.

Ning Mianmian was originally worried that the sisters-in-law would compete with each other or feel unhappy about their mother being nice to her, but she found that her third sister-in-law was open-minded and had no such idea at all.

Not only did he comfort her, he also took the time to help prepare delicious food for her.

Ning Mianmian was touched and loved this family even more.

Even her parents and brother came to see her and were happy for her when they knew she was living a good life.

Her mother also told her privately that there are very few families like the Shen family, especially those with such a good mother-in-law.

It's good enough if there are no rules. According to the way of this world, filial piety is the only thing that matters.

Even my mother said that her grandmother was pretty good, but she didn't take such good care of her daughter-in-law, let alone cook so many delicious dishes for her.

Her parents, brothers, sister-in-law, and nephews all said that the food at the Shen family was really good.

There are many things they have never eaten.

But the most important thing is taste. Some dishes are simple, but they taste good and people like to eat them.

Her parents praised it several times, so her mother-in-law specially taught her mother and her sister-in-law how to make several home-cooked dishes.

And cooking skills are taught.

Ning Mianmian didn't know how to express her gratitude.

Her parents were afraid that she didn't know how to be content, so they told her to be content and grateful, and to be strict with her words and actions in her daily life.

But because they know she is doing well, her parents don't have to worry about her.

Shen Yueyao saw that Fourth Sister-in-law looked good and said, "Fourth Sister-in-law, let me take your pulse."

Ning Mianmian stretched out her hand, and Shen Yueyao took her pulse and found that she was in good health and had been getting enough nutrition.

"But I'm a little calcium deficient, so I still need to supplement some calcium."

Ning Mianmian was stunned. Calcium?

They didn't know what it was.

"For example, drink more cow's milk or goat's milk. I remember there was a lot of goat's milk on Fourth Brother's farm. Also, eat big bones, black sesame seeds, and mustard greens..."

Shen Yueyao mentioned several foods that are good for calcium supplementation.

In fact, Shen Yueyao thinks that dried shrimps are the easiest way to supplement calcium.

It is also good to use dried shrimps when stir-frying or making soup.

But there are no dried shrimps here at all, and you can't even see shrimps on weekdays.

Some high-quality river water will contain river shrimp.

There are usually a lot of shrimps in spring and summer.

Thinking of shrimp, Shen Yueyao's expression changed.

But it's winter now, so we really can't get dried shrimps or shrimp skins.

Everyone remembered what Shen Yueyao said.

Shen Shaojing said: "But sister, I have never seen black sesame seeds before, and I can't buy them even if I ask someone to buy them outside."

Shen Yueyao said, "I remember seeing black sesame seeds in the grocery store before, but didn't you buy any?"

Shen Shaojing shook his head and said, "I've looked in grocery stores in the four towns and the county town, but there's nothing. There were some in the autumn before, but they're all gone now. There's also nothing in the prefectural city. They say there might be black sesame seeds next autumn, but not much."

Shen Yueyao seemed to be lost in thought.

The growing period of sesame is about three months.

She has some land in her space.

She had also bought some sesame seeds at the grocery store before, although not much, but at that time she wanted to make snacks for her two babies.

There is still a little bit now.

She can plant in space land.

When planting things in space land, don't worry about the environment.

When there is spiritual energy in the space, plants are more likely to survive, and the quality and yield of crops will be very high, and they will grow faster.

Thinking of this, Shen Yueyao said: "I will help keep an eye out for it later. If there are black sesame seeds, I will bring them back."

Shen Shaojing said: "By the way, sister, can we also plant these things you mentioned?"

They have never grown black sesame here and don’t know how to grow it.

This was suddenly mentioned by his sister, and Shen Shaojing remembered it.

Shen Yueyao said: "You can plant it in spring, around April or May, and it will be ripe in autumn. Anyway, if you want to grow it for your own consumption, you only need to plant a small plot of land."

Shen Shaojing nodded.

The brother and sister talked for a while, and Shen Shaojing said, "By the way, sister, I have a lot of wool on my farm, but some farmers want to buy some wool from me, saying they want to knit sweaters. There are also a few businessmen who want to buy all the wool and they are thinking of hiring people to knit sweaters."

"I have to say, the sweater you asked someone to bring is really warm. Even with the sweater and trousers inside and the down jacket outside, I don't feel cold at all."

"Otherwise, winters in previous years would be very cold."

Thinking of the freezing cold winter days in the past, Shen Shaojing couldn't help but shiver.

Shen Yueyao said with a smile: "Fourth brother, are you still afraid of the cold?"

Shen Shaojing said, "Of course. Our family wasn't well off before, and cotton is such a precious commodity. How could ordinary people buy it? We would tear apart and wash old cotton, make cotton-padded clothes every winter, and then tear it apart and wash it again the next year to make new cotton-padded clothes. The old cotton would no longer keep you warm after being used for a long time and washed too many times."

"Besides, I've learned before that all the cotton we get here is usually old cotton that has been screened out. The good, fresh cotton is supplied to the wealthy families."

Speaking of this, Shen Shaojing sighed again and again.

He originally wanted to open a farm.

But he doesn't think too much about it now. Opening a hot pot restaurant is good. Business is good, he doesn't have to worry too much, and he makes a lot of money every month.

In this way, he can also provide good living conditions for his wife and children.

You can also be filial to your parents.

Shen Yueyao said: "Next spring, I will plant some cotton on the farm. If possible, I will also consider buying the farm."

"By the way, Fourth Brother, if anyone knows of a good farm with a good price, please tell me. I'd like to buy it."

Shen Shaojing nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll tell my sister about this.”

"By the way, sister, if cotton grows, will you open an embroidery shop?"

Shen Yueyao said: "This is all an assembly line thing, spinning, weaving, dyeing, the process is complicated."

“But if it’s done well, it’s very profitable and can also be convenient for local people.”

Plant cotton in large fields, and farmers will follow suit. When the cotton is harvested, they can sell the cotton and make some money.

Furthermore, even if you don’t sell your own cotton, you can keep it to make clothes and quilts.

You don't have to spend so much money to buy cotton, sometimes you may not even be able to buy fresh and good cotton.

Ning Mianmian said, "Sister, I heard that some cotton-producing areas also have embroidery shops."

Shen Yueyao said: "I am not worried about these, because I will improve the spinning and weaving machines, and the efficiency will be much higher."

Shen Yueyao went to see some looms and spinning machines and found that they were not sophisticated enough. With slight modifications, the efficiency would be higher.

The weaving speed will also be faster.

If someone else said so, Ning Mianmian would not believe it, but since her sister said so, she had confidence that her sister could do it.

It is conceivable that if cotton is planted in this area and an embroidery shop is opened, the lives of the people in this area will get better.

But I heard that people's living standards in Beiliu Town have surpassed those in other towns.

It’s mainly because my sister runs a workshop, and many people work in the workshop and can earn wages and bonuses.

In addition, because everyone has money in their hands, they are willing to buy things, and many people can easily sell their things.

She heard that Liuhe Village has now become a big market, with many people setting up stalls to sell things and many people shopping, and business is very good.

After talking to her family, Shen Yueyao talked about what happened this time.

"Fourth brother, your farm uses so many sheep every day, there must be sheep intestines. I thought you would leave them all for me."

Although Shen Shaojing was puzzled, he said straightforwardly: "What's the big deal? Just tell me what my sister needs."

Although he didn't know what his sister was going to do, Shen Shaojing now understood that no matter what it was, it would become a treasure in his sister's hands.

“Those things were thrown away before.”

Shen Yueyao smiled mysteriously and said, “I am of great use.”

After the ham sausage is made, you can send some to my mother's house for everyone to try.

Since his sister needed it, Shen Shaojing hurried to the farm.

Because hot pot restaurants need a lot of ingredients and a lot of mutton every day, even if they use the lamb intestines of the day, there will still be a lot.

Shen Yueyao asked about the business of the noodle shop of the third brother and his wife.

Shen Shaochen said happily: "When the weather gets cold, everyone is more willing to eat food with soup. Whether it is noodles or vermicelli soup in the noodle shop, everyone likes to drink it, and the business is good."

But the weather is cold now, so I won’t make the cold noodles and cold skin I made before.

Because even if it was made, not many people would buy it.

Everyone likes to eat some hot soup noodles.

"By the way, sister, pepper is really a good thing. Many people like to add pepper to noodles and vermicelli soup. Those who don't like spicy food can add pepper, and customers who like spicy food can add pepper and chili."

"Fortunately, you gave me some pepper before, but now there is not much. We grew some peppers ourselves, which is enough."

Shen Yueyao's expression changed, and she said, "I'll have someone send a few baskets over later, but they need to be ground into powder."

Shen Shaochen nodded happily when he heard it.

This thing grows in tropical areas.

Shen Yueyao was planting in space, so she was able to grow pepper.

In the past, there were many peppers and gourds planted in the space. Now that the gourds are no longer needed, Shen Yueyao planted some vegetables and peppers and other things.

She also discovered that the space could be upgraded, with an extra acre of land added to the previous one.

It makes it more convenient for her to grow things.

Shen Shaochen was very embarrassed and said, "Sister, um, can this be planted?"

He was too embarrassed to ask his sister for everything he needed.

Shen Yueyao shook her head and said, "We can't grow pepper, but we can grow Sichuan pepper. However, Sichuan pepper trees take a long time to grow. However, there are some Sichuan pepper trees on the back mountain. If Third Brother needs it, we can transplant some from the mountain."

In fact, Shen Yueyao didn’t think there was anything wrong with helping the third and fourth brothers.

The main thing is that she doesn't have to do anything, and her third and fourth brothers will give her shares and dividends from their business.

Not to mention that if there are any good things, the third and fourth brothers are also thinking about her.

So she won't be stingy when it comes to offering ideas and suggestions.
