After lunch, the mother rabbit began to give birth to baby rabbits.
The newborn rabbits are pink and as big as a little mouse, with the amniotic membrane still stuck on their bodies. The mother rabbit licks them clean one by one.
"So cute!" Lu Lin couldn't help but touch the little rabbit.
"Don't touch it!" Leng Yi shouted. "When I was in the countryside, I heard an old man say that if there's human scent on baby rabbits, the mother rabbit can smell it and will think it's not her own and will eat them."
"Huh?" Lu Lin pulled her hand back abruptly. "No way, rabbits will eat their own babies?"
"That's what they said." Leng Yi said seriously, and Yang Qing didn't know whether what he said was true.
"Then don't move for now, let's talk about it in a few days." Yang Qing said with a smile.
A total of twelve little rabbits were born, and the birth went quite smoothly.
The newborn rabbit's eyes are not open yet. It keeps its eyes closed and hums its head as it goes into its mother's arms, turning its head to look for milk.
"So cute!" Lu Lin's eyes lit up, so adorable.
"She's really fertile." Yang Qing smiled. Twelve babies in one litter. What a heroic mother!
"The little rabbit has low resistance, so let's keep it in the room for the next two days to prevent it from getting cold. If we go out, we'll leave the rabbit with Lu Lin." Leng Yi said.
Generally speaking, they would turn off the electric heater in the room when they go out to avoid wasting electricity.
"Don't worry, I will take care of them." Lu Lin nodded.
Yang Qing is rather careless and always forgets to feed them. If it weren't for Lu Lin, they would have starved to death long ago.
And those vegetables, if it weren't for Lu Lin's careful care, they might have died long ago.
Yang sighed, she really didn't care much about these things, Lu Lin was more attentive.
When they were at home, Lu Lin fed Aqi and Xiaoxue more often. When the bean sprouts grew well, she would take them out to eat and then put new beans in. She was also the one who watered the vegetables.
"Why don't you put them in my room? I clean it every day, so they shouldn't smell bad." Lu Lin said.
Yang Qing wanted it very much, as she was afraid that she would kill them all if she raised them.
Leng Yi picked up the rabbit cage and placed it in the corner of the room.
Put the mother rabbit and the baby rabbits next to each other first, and wait for a few days until they have adapted to the environment before putting them together.
Yang Qing and Leng Yi returned to their room. Yang Qing said to Leng Yi, "We have nothing to do this afternoon. Let's go into the space and harvest the vegetables, shall we?"
"Okay!" Leng Yi nodded, and was also very curious. Is growing vegetables in space the same as usual?
Yang Qing took Leng Yi's hand and entered the space. Yang Qing found that there was an extra warehouse behind the villa. Was this another upgrade?
She immediately used her mind to put the scattered things that had been temporarily collected from the yard into the warehouse.
Leng Yi watched the thing fly in by itself, stunned. Is this possible?
Now that things are tidied up, the yard looks much cleaner.
Leng Yi walked into the vegetable garden. The cucumbers and tomatoes planted by Yang Qing and Lu Lin were full of fruits, and the green vegetables were also lush and green. They seemed to stop growing after growing to a certain size and would not get old.
Leng Yi picked a tomato and ate it without washing it. It was sweet and juicy, and it was so delicious, much better than those sold outside.
Then I pulled up a potato planted on the ground and saw that it was full of potatoes the size of duck eggs, with thin skin and yellow flesh. Each potato weighed at least ten pounds, which could be said to be a very fruitful harvest.
Look at that large area planted with potatoes, at least hundreds of plants and thousands of kilograms.
There are also sweet potatoes, but they were planted relatively late. I pulled up one and took a look. They were only the size of eggs. They can still grow a little longer, so there is no need to harvest them for the time being.
There are also white radishes. If you pull one up, it is white and plump, like lotus root, and one weighs at least two kilograms.
It is crisp and refreshing, without the strong radish flavor of ordinary radishes, and can be eaten raw.
Leng Yi was speechless.
It's amazing.
"Have you collected them all?" Leng Yi asked.
"Let's keep it. It won't go bad if we keep it in the warehouse. It's like time is frozen in here. Everything that was put in here will stay the same as it was originally."
"But plants can still grow. I don't know why."
"Can this be collected with the mind?" Leng Yi asked.
Yang Qing shook his head, "I haven't tried it, I'll give it a try."
As a result, she thought about it countless times in her mind, and the cucumbers still hung on the vine and did not fall into the basket by themselves.
"No!" Yang Qing shook his head.
Leng Yi smiled, "This doesn't want us to be lazy, so let's do it ourselves!"
"Ah? If I have to harvest the crops myself in the future, won't I be exhausted to death?" Yang Qing pouted.
Leng Yi smiled, "Don't worry, we'll get an automatic harvester when the time comes. You see the land here is so flat, mechanized harvesting will be no problem at all."
"That's right!" Yang Qing nodded. Leng Yi was still more experienced.
Yang Qing simply brought a lot of cardboard boxes and put the things he picked directly into the boxes; they wouldn’t go bad anyway.
Once a box is full, I can move it to the warehouse using my mind. I don't know what's going on.
The two of them worked for an entire afternoon and only managed to harvest the tomatoes, cucumbers, and radishes. They didn't have time to harvest the potatoes because there were too many of them.
Leng Yi walked over and took a look. There were cauliflower, lettuce, okra, cabbage, peanuts, and soybeans. Further away, there were wild vegetables such as shepherd's purse. There were also Chinese medicinal herbs planted there, even ginseng.
"You planted so many things." Leng Yi sighed.
Yang Qing smiled, "Lu Lin and I planted them when we had free time. We just scattered the seeds and sometimes watered them with spiritual spring water, and they grew on their own."
"We picked these wild vegetables in the mountains when we went to look for the cattle. We brought back a lot of them later, so we planted some. I didn't expect it to grow into such a large patch."
"I found the Chinese medicinal seeds in our company's warehouse. I thought they might be useful in the future, so I planted some."
"Ginseng may not grow that fast. There's no rush to eat it anyway, so let it grow slowly."
"I just don't have any fruit trees here. I used to think about transplanting some fruit trees from somewhere, but it never happened."
Leng Yi suddenly thought, "The last time we went to Biyuan Community, there was a lychee tree there. You wanted to use that tree to escape. Can we just put it in?"
Yang Qing thought about it and said, "It should be possible."
"Then let's go there next time. The tree has been planted for many years, and it should be able to bear fruit directly after being moved in. The local area is also rich in longan and mango, and these trees should not be difficult to find." Leng Yi said.
"Yeah!" Yang Qing nodded. "By the way, aren't we going to the villa halfway up the mountain? There should be a lot of fruit trees on the mountain. When the time comes, remind me to move a few in. I'm afraid I'll forget."
"Okay!" Leng Yi nodded.
Suddenly, Yang Ting heard Lu Lin calling, "Qingqing, it's time to eat!"
Yang Qing was surprised. He could actually hear the sounds outside in this space. It seemed that he couldn't do that before.
The space must have been upgraded.
"Lu Lin called us to eat. Let's come back to harvest these potatoes tomorrow." Yang Qing said to Leng Yi.
"Okay!" Leng Yi nodded.
Yang Qing took his hand and walked out of the space together.
