The year isn't the 80s! Su Yan, a base owner from 2048, dozed off while driving and woke up transmigrated to 1961. She became the infatuated, delicate, and ungrateful Su Yan who was leveraging ...

Chapter 215 Outing

Whose child is it? Isn't it grandpa's child? Grandpa is tall and strong, and his fighting power seems good, but he is definitely not as good as his father. His father is now a regular in the group.

If he wasn't capable, could he have been promoted to full colonel in his twenties? I heard his father had killed enemies during missions and won awards in military competitions.

Lu Chen, Lu Yu and Lu Yiming squatted near the backyard wall to catch birds, Hua Jing sat in the living room chatting with Qin Xiaofang, and Lu Jin was working on his manuscript in the room.

"I haven't seen you for a few days. Lanlan looks a little fatter."

"After a hundred days, her health improved and she started to grow taller. Her face also looked plump. The child has delicate features and resembles her father."

Hua Jing smiled and said, "Her eyes are like those of the Lu family, and her facial features are indeed as delicate as her father's. Fortunately, she doesn't look much like her mother."

"Is her mother ugly?"

"Shh, keep your voice down. Her mother has average facial features except for her fair skin and single eyelids."

"A fair complexion can hide three flaws. If you look average, you'll probably be more attractive if you dress up. Some girls from our countryside have good skin, but unfortunately their skin is yellow and rough. No matter how pretty their pudding-like clothes look, no one will like them."

Hua Jing had to admit what Qin Xiaofang said. Her daughter Zhenzhen's skin used to be yellow and dark due to the wind and rain in the countryside. Fortunately, her skin had become much whiter in the soap factory in the past year and a half. After she started working, she no longer had to wear patched clothes, and her temperament came out immediately.

"You're right. I've been helping Xiaoyan take care of the kids, and I've gained a lot of weight over the past year. My husband even said I've gained at least ten pounds and that I'm enjoying myself at my nephew's house."

"Sister-in-law is indeed blessed. Yiming is one and a half years old and basically doesn't need to be held in my arms. I just need to feed him and watch him play in the water. The one in my arms will need to be taken care of for at least a year before he grows up."

Qin Xiaofang was indeed envious of her sister-in-law. She had heard that Lu Ting's family living conditions were even better than those of his parents'. Eating meat was a common occurrence for their family, and they had fruit all the time.

"Lanlan doesn't cry much now. Just take care of her eating, drinking, defecating and urinating."

"Sister-in-law, where did your nephew and his wife go to play?"

"We went to climb the Great Wall. I wonder if Xiao Ting took some time off specifically to take Xiao Yan along. They usually don't have much time off."

"Your nephew is so kind to his wife. I see that when they are having a meal together, your nephew keeps picking up food for his wife."

Picking up food is nothing. She also saw her eldest nephew helping Xiaoyan wash her underwear and washing her feet in winter.

"Haha, you didn't see how clingy they are at home."

"Sister-in-law, you didn't see them kissing in the room, did you?"

Hua Jing glanced at Qin Xiaofang unhappily. This sister-in-law was so outspoken. Could she be missing her husband? Next time, she should ask her elder sister if she could give her sister-in-law a day or two off a month so that she could go home and reunite with her husband. Otherwise, she would always be thinking about all sorts of things.

"What are you thinking? Those two would definitely lock the door if they were going to do something."

"Sister-in-law, you live just across the wall from us, didn't you hear anything?"

Hua Jing thought carefully and felt that she had not heard any messy noises in her nephew's house for such a long time. Could it be that the young couple was not good enough, or were they too gentle?

Maybe they were being unfair to her by waiting until she fell asleep before starting the baby-making process in the middle of the night.

Hua Jing had no idea that her eldest nephew and his wife were creating a world of war in space. If she had caught them, she would have just said that young people really know how to have fun.

The two experienced people had just climbed a mountain over 800 meters above sea level. Looking at the rolling hills, Su Yan asked Lu Ting, "Are there really sika deer here?"

"Yes, some people have even seen wild cattle and sheep in the deep mountains. There's a rumor in the mountain stream that they come out in the evening to look for water."

"How about we drive back in the middle of the night?"

Now that she's here, she must get more wild animals into the space. There are two big cows and one calf in the space now. If she can fascinate a bison, she will have endless beef jerky of various flavors.

They hadn't eaten steak for a long time. They wanted to catch sika deer and bison. It was not easy. It took them more than an hour to climb up the mountain. How could they return empty-handed?

"Okay, we'll search for them during the day. If we can catch them, we'll catch them now. If we can't catch them, we'll catch them at night."

She ground more than ten pounds of Datura powder, which is perfect for attracting wild animals.

"Lu Ting, there are a lot of wild fruits on that tree. Should we pick some first?"

"Don't you know it? If you don't know it, it's best not to pick it. Some fruits look beautiful, but they are actually poisonous."

Su Yan shook her head, "I don't know it, I just think it looks pretty red."

Lu Ting smiled and said, "There are so many fruits in this space, but they are not enough for you to eat?"

Su Yan only heard Lu Ting say that there were many wild animals in these mountains, but after walking all the way, apart from the birds flying around and occasionally encountering one or two four-horned snakes, there was no wild animal.

"Lu Ting, did you bring me to the wrong mountain? I didn't see a single rabbit."

"I heard that tigers have appeared in this mountain. The mountain range ahead is called Tiger Ridge. Don't worry, I will definitely not let you return empty-handed."

"Forget it. Instead of looking for wild animals here, I might as well look for herbs."

Su Yan would definitely not be willing to just go back after coming all the way here. If she couldn't find any wild animals, she could dig some herbs to take back.

After a while, she found a bunch of wild Gastrodia elata not far away. It was great. Although she had Gastrodia elata planted in her space, the medicinal effect of wild Gastrodia elata was naturally better than that of cultivated ones.

"Yan Yan, what did you see?"

"What do you think that is?"

Lu Ting looked at the bare stems, without a single leaf, which looked a bit like the Gastrodia elata in the space medicine field.

“Is that Gastrodia elata?”

"Yes, it's wild Gastrodia elata. It's several times more effective than the Gastrodia elata grown in space."

"Really? Then get out your hoe and rake and let's dig up some Gastrodia elata."

Anyway, there was no one on the mountain, so she could dig the Gastrodia elata slowly. Su Yan took out the hoe and rake from the space.

Unexpectedly, Lu Ting was a good hand at farm work. He first dug out all the stems of the Gastrodia elata, and then carefully dug out the Gastrodia elata in the ground.

The soil on the mountain is very hard and cannot be compared with the soil in the fields. It is difficult to dig, but it is not a problem for Lu Ting.

Lu Ting dug out the Gastrodia elata along with the soil, and Su Yan used a small rake to loosen the soil for the Gastrodia elata. She picked up a Gastrodia elata and smelled it. Sure enough, the wild Gastrodia elata was smaller and had a stronger smell.

"Yan Yan, why does this Gastrodia elata look like a small hairy taro?"

"It's a bit similar. Raw Gastrodia elata can be cooked and eaten. But I plan to prepare these wild Gastrodia elata using the ancient method of triple steaming and triple drying, and save them for later use. If you want to eat fresh Gastrodia elata, we can go back to the space and dig them up."

"Okay, we can go back tomorrow and cook some to try."

"No need, I can make you a pot of Gastrodia elata chicken soup in the space tonight."

Su Yan followed Lu Ting to pick up Gastrodia elata, and she always felt as if something was staring at her from behind.
