Bi Qiao’an lay motionless in the icy snow, watching helplessly as the falling flakes slowly buried her. As her consciousness faded, her mind drifted back to the three arduous years she had spent ...
Chapter 585: Ripe (16)
"Yes, I will work during the day. I still have a lot of preparations to do. Go home first, and call me when I wake up!"
Guo Tingshuo was also sleepy. After hearing what everyone said, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, go back to sleep first. I'll call you guys in the afternoon and we'll discuss this."
After getting permission, the group of people dispersed.
Although Shen Yanming did not squeeze in, he still fell behind the main group.
I haven't seen my wife, son and daughter for a few hours. I miss them!
I don’t know since when Comrade Lao Shen became so clingy!
When he returned to the dormitory and looked at the pitch-black room, Shen Yanming went back to the space without even washing up.
Well, it’s still more comfortable to be where my family is, even if they are at a distance.
After taking a quick shower in the mobile home, Shen Yanming went straight back to bed and hugged his wife. Within two seconds, he fell into a deep sleep.
He didn't even hear what Joan muttered in a daze.
The next day, Shen Yanming woke up at an unknown time.
Anyway, when he woke up, his wife, son and daughter were no longer by his side. He was the only one lying in bed, feeling quite lonely.
He immediately put on his slippers and walked out of the bedroom, only to find that the three most important people in his life were having fun in the living room, just like he had yesterday.
Shen Yanming wanted to step forward immediately, but Bi Qiaoan saw him out of the corner of his eye and immediately stopped him.
"You... go back quickly!" Bi Qiaoan drew a circle on his face with his fingers, and then signaled his two precious children with his eyes.
Shen Yanming understood immediately that he had forgotten to wear a mask again!
He really deserved a beating, luckily he didn't scare the two little ones.
Shen Yanming got a new mask from the storage area and put it on, feeling quite depressed.
Not to mention that wearing a mask is uncomfortable and inconvenient, even changing two or three masks a day is not a big deal.
No matter how much stock there is in the storage area, it will run out one day.
All in all, the Alliance still has to find a way to cure impetigo.
Bi Qiaoan didn’t know about her husband’s thoughts. When she saw that everyone was well equipped, she called Shen Yanming over to help take care of the children.
It's afternoon already and she has to cook.
Shen Yanming didn't expect that he would sleep for nearly ten hours.
I still feel a little dizzy now, and I don’t know if it’s because I slept too much or too little.
He felt extremely satisfied watching the two little babies waving their hands and occasionally smiling.
I summoned a bottle of spiritual spring water and took a sip. When I felt my mind was clear, I leaned on the sofa and talked to the two little ones.
As it was getting late, Bi Qiaoan simply cooked some noodles.
After dinner, Chen Yanming told his wife that if the phone outside rang, she should help answer it.
He wants to go to the mountain to take a look.
"The seeds and fruit seedlings that were planted yesterday can bear fruit today?" Bi Qiaoan was a little puzzled by Shen Yanming's actions.
"That's hard to say. When the strawberries were planted, they were already blooming. Maybe they would be nourished by the spiritual energy and bear fruit today. Who can say for sure? Besides, I can go to the mountain to observe and record their growth patterns!" Shen Yanming explained.
Bi Qiaoan yawned as he spoke, "Okay, go ahead, but don't disturb the three of us when you come back!"
I got up too early this morning, and was afraid that the two darlings would disturb Shen Yanming's sleep, so I moved them to the living room before they woke up.
I curled up on the sofa to catch up on my sleep, but unexpectedly, I couldn't fall asleep at all.
That state of not being able to sleep or wake up is really annoying.
It would be better to just sleep in the bedroom until you wake up naturally. I don’t know what I’m doing!
Bi Qiaoan yawned and took the two little babies back to the bedroom.
Chen Yanming watched the backs of the mother and her two children until he could no longer hear any sound, then he carried the small bamboo basket and went up the mountain.
This time he was alone, so he subconsciously quickened his pace. It didn't take long before he reached the top of the mountain.
After walking for another ten minutes, they arrived at the place where they had sown seeds yesterday. The scene in front of him surprised him!
More than a dozen strawberry seedlings have already produced densely packed red fruits.
The emerald green runners extended outward, apparently producing new plants.
But Shen Yanming was shocked. What if he couldn't control them and the whole mountain was covered with strawberries?
He was just about to go forward and pinch off the runners rooted in the soil when he saw a little squirrel standing in front of him with its eyes wide open.
It kept squeaking and jumping around.
Shen Yanming didn't know what it meant and could only guess.
But after guessing for a long time without any result, the little squirrel became anxious and directly picked a red fruit and started eating it, pointing at the newly grown seedlings while chewing.
"Do you want to keep those seedlings to grow fruits for eating?" Shen Yanming asked tentatively.
The little squirrel nodded, then raised the half-eaten strawberry, as if to share it with Shen Yanming.
Shen Yanming lowered his head and smiled, then reached out and touched the little squirrel's head: "Eat it, there are more over there, I'll pick some back later, and leave the rest for you!"
The little squirrel nodded and immediately jumped around with joy.
Yesterday it saw the man coming to plant seedlings, but it didn't know what he was planting.
Later, I found that the seedlings had grown red fruits, so I came over quietly with my friends and stole two.
Then they tasted it and found it was a delicacy they had never tasted before.
The little squirrel discussed it with his friends and finally decided that since those were planted by Shen Yanming himself, they were the fruits of his labor and they could leave them alone.
But the newly bred ones belong to them.
So when the little squirrel heard that Comrade Lao Shen was going to leave half of the red fruits for it, it danced with joy.
Shen Yanming was also infected by its joy and thought to himself: "These little animals on the mountain are really smart!"
Isn't it like a spirit that can understand human language?
It’s hard to say what kind of spiritual beasts there are on this mountain!
Shen Yanming was stunned by his own thoughts, and he turned around to check other seeds and fruit seedlings.
The grapevines have grown two meters long around the tree, and the passion fruit and watermelon seeds have also broken through the soil and are about thirty to forty centimeters long.
Shen Yanming confirmed that the spiritual energy on this mountain, like the spiritual spring water, can really speed up the growth of plants. Of course, this plant may only be a mortal like them, but it may not be the case for spiritual creatures.
Shen Yanming didn't care about that and squatted down to pick the ripe strawberries.
Just as he promised, he left half for the little squirrel. But he picked dozens of them.
When leaving, he waved to the little squirrel.
As a result, the little cutie also stretched out his paw and waved.
Shen Yanming smiled and took the dozens of strawberries down the mountain. The strong fruity fragrance lingered in his nose.
He wanted to have a few bites right away.
But when he thought about the fact that it had not been washed yet and he could not abandon his wife, he suppressed his restless thoughts.
When I returned to the mobile home, I had already forgotten Bi Qiaoan's instructions before leaving.
Shen Yanming shouted loudly: "Wife!"
