Reborn and Divorced: I'm Raising My Kids and Lying Low to Get Rich

Opening her eyes, Chen Hong was reborn. She was reborn just before she was about to take her children back to her parents' home. Not wanting to live a life of looking at others' faces for a...

Chapter 23: A Precautionary Measure

Yu Yang said angrily, "Mom, aren't you angry at all?"

Chen Hong laughed and said, "Why are you angry? I'm not angry at all. From now on, I won't have to take care of your grandfather's bodily needs anymore, nor will I have to send your dad dried fish, pears, and mushrooms. I won't have to worry about something happening to him if I don't answer the phone for a long time."

"From now on, I'll take care of our food and clothing. You just need to be a good boy and listen to me. I'll work hard to earn money and won't have to worry about anything anymore."

As the mother and son were chatting, Chen Hong noticed that her son had fallen silent. Looking down, she saw that the little guy had fallen asleep. It seemed that he had exhausted his brain today, and the little guy was thinking about all sorts of things.

After doing yoga for a while, Chen Hong can now clearly feel that her physical fitness has improved a lot. She can do a set of yoga with ease and doesn't feel tired at all. She feels like she has lost a few pounds.

After locking the bathroom door, Chen Hong entered the space and checked the red melon fish. They were still alive, but the two fish were in a bucket with little seawater, and they were already quite weak. She didn't have time to take care of them today, and it looked like they would die if the water wasn't changed soon.

At the end of the river, Chen Hong dug a ditch half a meter deep along the riverbank. At one end of the ditch, he dug a small pool that was 3 meters long, 3 meters wide, and 3 meters deep.

Dig a channel through one end of the stream and divert the river water into the pond. When the pond is about 2.5 meters deep, block the ditch so that the water used for fish farming will not pollute the river.

Once the water had settled and cleared up a bit, Chen Hong lifted the bucket and poured the fish into the pond. Whether they survived or not depended on their fate. She watched intently for a while; the fish swam around in the water, showing no signs of turning belly up.

Now Chen Hong was relieved. She could raise some sea fish in this space. In the future, if she caught too many fish, she could keep them in the pond and eat them fresh every day.

Next time, let's try getting some freshwater fish. Chen Hong still misses the red-scaled fish from Taishan!

After digging the pond, Chen Hong began digging tree pits. She had placed the order on Taobao two days ago, and the saplings would arrive in two more days at most.

We need to dig the tree pits as soon as possible so that we can plant the saplings directly in the pits once we get them back. We divided the pits according to the size of the trees, with a spacing of 1-4 meters, and dug more than 100 tree pits.

Chen Hong threw down the hoe and plopped down on the handle, utterly exhausted. Although her physical strength had improved, the time was still too short for the improvement to be significant; Chen Hong was already treating herself like a man.

Tonight, I'll dig up these; I'll continue the rest tomorrow night. Having rested enough, Chen Hong wandered around her spatial dimension, checking the peanuts, corn, and soybeans she had planted a couple of days ago.

It seems to be 2-3 times faster than outside; the three crops have already sprouted. Outside, it would take at least 7-10 days for seedlings to sprout, and peanuts might even take 15 days. Looking at the neat rows of seedlings in the space, Chen Hong guessed that a harvest would be possible in a maximum of 45 days.

That way, you can plant 7-8 crops a year. I just don't know how long the harvest cycle of fruit trees is. If they could also be harvested and grown repeatedly, that would be so satisfying! After a long day, Chen Hong washed up in her space and went to sleep as soon as possible.

The small fishing village was shrouded in a thin mist in the early morning. Occasionally, the sounds of roosters crowing and dogs barking could be heard, along with the occasional sound of women calling their children to get up. The small fishing village, which had been silent all night, had awakened.

Chen Hong got up early, fed the chickens and ducks, washed clothes and cooked, and began her daily housework.

After setting breakfast on the table, Chen Hong called her son to get up. Yu Yang finished washing up and ate breakfast with his mother, asking about today's plans: "Mom, are we going out to sea again today?"

"The computer will be installed this morning, and the installers will be here soon. Mom will have to stay home and watch over things. This afternoon, I need to weed the peanut field, so I won't be going out to sea. What are your plans for today? Are you going to stay home and play or go visit your grandpa?" Chen Hong asked Yang.

"Then I'll go to Grandpa's house in the morning, have lunch with him, come home and take a nap with you, and help you remove the weeds in the afternoon."

Yu Yang had his time perfectly planned. Chen Hong pinched her son's cheek and smiled, saying, "Very good! You've kept Grandpa company and helped Mom at the same time. Son, you're becoming more and more sensible!"

Yu Yang rubbed his face against Chen Hong's hand, a big smile spreading across his face.

After breakfast, Yu Yang went to the old house. Chen Hong waited for the installers at the gate after receiving their call.

Two staff members arrived in a van, which contained a computer monitor and a large spool of network cable.

Since the seller had already collected the broadband installation fee, deposit, and annual fee when I bought the computer, a telecommunications worker came today and went to the house to install the cable first.

Under Chen Hong's guidance, another staff member assembled the computer in the bedroom, with the monitor installed on the desk.

After two hours of work, the two staff members finally managed to pull the network cable into the yard, along the cable tray left during the renovation, and into the bedroom to connect it to the computer. The staff members then turned on the computer, connected it to the network, and tested the machine.

The internet speed is good, and the computer boots up and runs smoothly. As long as you don't play demanding games, it's perfectly adequate for everyday home use.

Seeing that the staff had been busy since they entered the room, and finally finished their work, Chen Hong quickly washed a plate of pears and brewed a pot of tea for them to rest for a while.
