Chi Dahu was very efficient. After arranging everything, he went into the space to clear land the next day with a hoe.

He truly is a skilled hunter; even his speed in clearing land is faster than that of ordinary people his age.

In just a few days, he had cultivated two acres of land.

Not all of these two acres were planted; only two-tenths of an acre was used for cultivation.

One part was planted with chives, and the other part was deliberately irrigated into a paddy field to grow water spinach.

Water spinach is an amphibious plant. It can grow on land as well as in water.

After planting these two vegetables, Chi Dahu observed them for two days before clearing the remaining land.

Afterwards, carrying the diagram of the heated kang bed drawn by Chi Yu, he led the entire Chi family back home in a grand procession.

Logically, Chi Qiao, the eldest sister-in-law, should have stayed, but she was afraid that everyone would not understand the diagram of the heated kang (a traditional Chinese bed-making system), so she went back with them.

So now, only Huang Dani and Chi Yu and their son remain in this rented house.

Yes, when Chi Dahu and the others returned, Chi Yu had already completed more than half of her postpartum confinement period.

After the wasteland in her space was cleared out, apart from one acre being divided into several plots for growing vegetables.

He planted sorghum in half of the remaining half and millet in the other half.

It was at this time that Chi Yu and Chi Qiao learned that the Great Chu Kingdom did not yet have potatoes, sweet potatoes, or corn.

The two sisters were tempted when they thought about the sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn kernels in the kitchen and refrigerator.

However, due to various matters and Chi Yu's physical condition, the matter has been put on hold.

The doctor, Dr. Li, who was brought in from the neighboring county, truly lived up to his reputation as a specialist in pediatrics.

After his treatment, the child's health has improved considerably.

At least I can eat and sleep well, I no longer get diarrhea so easily, and I don't get startled from time to time and then have a persistent fever.

Huang Dani, the second sister-in-law, has gone to great lengths for this child.

Even his nickname, after much discussion among his sisters-in-law, was chosen as Zhuangzhuang.

I just hope my child can grow up strong and healthy, instead of being as thin and weak as he is now, like a cat.

Zhuangzhuang's return filled Chiyu's time with activity.

Now she spends her days learning from her second sister-in-law how to take care of the children.

You can tell what a child is about to do or what their needs are by observing their subtle facial expressions.

Everyone says that taking care of a baby is tiring, but a newborn baby in the postpartum period does nothing but eat and sleep, or has diarrhea and cries because of discomfort.

In fact, they are quite easy to manage.

What's more, there's also Huang Dani, the second sister-in-law.

Therefore, even if the child returns, Chi Yu will still have very few opportunities to personally take care of the child.

Aside from needing to breastfeed during the day, Huang Dani took care of the baby at night.

To paraphrase Huang Dani, you should take good care of yourself during your postpartum period, otherwise you'll suffer from postpartum illnesses later on.

Time flies, and before we know it, it's time for Chi Yu to finish her postpartum confinement.

She spent a full forty-five days in confinement this month.

When I finished my postpartum confinement, I felt a sense of liberation.

When she finished washing up and came out of the room, she saw a refined scholar, dressed in a moon-white long robe, standing in the courtyard.

Chi Yu felt that he looked familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before, but she couldn't remember where.

The same person saw Chi Yu, walked up to her, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "Congratulations, Miss Chi Yu, on your new life!"

His words completely baffled Chi Yu.

Who is this person? How do they know her?

It was Ikeno, who was standing to the side with a look of utter confusion, who stepped forward to introduce her.

"Aunt, this is my good friend, Qin Mu. I think we've met before."
