Chapter 297 Begonia Blossoms
Su Wantang has been vomiting everything she eats lately.
When she got up in the morning, Lu Jingyan brought her millet porridge, but she felt nauseous just from the smell.
"No," she waved her hand. "Try another one."
Lu Jingyan immediately took the bowl away and replaced it with a bowl of clear soup noodles.
Su Wantang glanced at it and shook her head.
"That won't work either."
Lu Jingyan frowned. "Then what do you want to eat?"
"I don't know." Su Wantang leaned against the headboard, her face a little pale. "I just don't want to eat anything."
Lu Jingyan stood by the bed, looking at her suffering, his heart aching as if it were being torn apart.
"How about I go out and buy you some sour things?"
"Give it a try."
Before leaving, Lu Jingyan turned back to look at her and said, "Don't move around. I'll be back soon."
"knew."
As soon as the door closed, Su Wantang lay down.
She touched her belly, looking somewhat helpless.
The little guy is so small, and he's already causing her trouble.
However, the thought that this was her and Lu Jingyan's child made her heart melt.
When Lu Jingyan returned, he was carrying a large bag of things.
Hawthorn cake, preserved plums, sour plum soup, candied hawthorn, and a few other snacks whose names she couldn't recall.
"Try them all." Lu Jingyan placed the items on the bedside table. "There's bound to be something you can eat."
Looking at the table full of food, Su Wantang felt a lump in her throat.
She picked up a piece of hawthorn cake and took a bite.
It tasted sweet and sour, which made my stomach feel better.
"That works."
Lu Jingyan breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'll go buy it again tomorrow."
"You don't need to buy so much," Su Wantang said. "It would be a waste if we couldn't finish it."
“No waste,” Lu Jingyan said. “If you can’t finish it, I’ll eat it.”
Su Wantang laughed, "When did you develop a liking for sour foods?"
“Now,” Lu Jingyan said matter-of-factly.
He sat on the edge of the bed, watching her slowly finish a piece of hawthorn cake, and then poured her a glass of warm water.
"Drink slowly."
Su Wantang took two sips and put the cup down.
"Lu Jingyan".
"Um"
"If you keep going like this, you'll be exhausted to death before you even give birth."
Lu Jingyan shook his head. "No."
He placed his hand on her stomach and gently massaged it.
"As long as you and the child are okay, I'll do anything."
Su Wantang looked at him, feeling incredibly warm inside.
This man truly spoils her rotten.
Qin Zheng arrived in the afternoon.
He was carrying a large suitcase, which he put on the ground as soon as he entered the door.
"Miss, this was sent by Du Kangnian and the others."
Su Wantang was stunned. "What is that?"
"A congratulatory gift," Qin Zheng said. "They sent it from all over the country after hearing you were pregnant."
Su Wantang asked him to open the box.
It was filled with all sorts of things.
Bird's nest, ginseng, deer antler, and several other medicinal herbs she had never seen before.
Each item had a small note with a blessing written on it.
Du Kangnian's handwriting was neat: "Miss, congratulations. This is the best bird's nest in Shanghai. It will be good for your health if you eat a bowl every day."
Zheng Kai's handwriting was messy: "Miss, this is wild ginseng that I asked someone to get from Northeast China. I'll stew it into soup to nourish my body."
Wang Kun's words were even simpler: "Miss, this is a deer antler I brought back from Southeast Asia. Please keep it."
Looking at these things, Su Wantang's nose tingled with tears again.
These people were all trained by her.
Now that she has a child, they are happier than anyone else.
"Qin Zheng".
"exist."
“I’ll send each of them a telegram later, saying that I received it and that they should stop sending any more.”
"yes."
Qin Zheng paused for a moment, then said, "Miss, news has also come from Zhou Jimin's side."
"What news?"
"The cultivation of purple clover has been successful," Qin Zheng said. "The first batch of finished products has been produced, and the results are even better than expected."
Su Wantang's eyes lit up.
The purple clover was a seed she took from her spatial storage and gave to Zhou Jimin to cultivate.
This stuff can significantly improve soil fertility and has a huge impact on agricultural development.
The successful cultivation now means that Haitang Technology has overcome another major technical challenge.
“Let Zhou Jimin continue to expand the cultivation scale,” Su Wantang said. “This stuff will be very useful in the future.”
"yes."
After Qin Zheng left, Lu Jingyan came in.
He looked at the boxes scattered on the ground and raised an eyebrow.
"This is"
“They were sent by Du Kangnian and the others,” Su Wantang said. “They’re all tonics.”
Lu Jingyan squatted down and rummaged through the contents of the box.
"These people are quite thoughtful."
“Yes,” Su Wantang said, “they’re all good stuff.”
Lu Jingyan stood up. "Then keep it. You can eat it slowly later."
He walked to the window and looked at the sky outside.
"Wantang, I have to go on a business trip tomorrow."
Su Wantang was stunned. "Where to?"
"The Northwest," Lu Jingyan said, "I have something to take care of."
"how long"
"Three days."
Su Wantang nodded, "Then be careful."
Lu Jingyan turned around and walked up to her.
"Are you okay staying home alone?"
“Yes,” Su Wantang said. “I’m not a child.”
“You still have to be careful,” Lu Jingyan said. “I’ve asked Gao Jianjun to come and check on you every day.”
"No need," Su Wantang shook her head. "He's so busy, don't bother him."
“No trouble at all,” Lu Jingyan said. “This is an order.”
Su Wantang had no choice but to nod.
Lu Jingyan left early the next morning.
Before leaving, he hugged Su Wantang and kissed her forehead for a long time.
"Wait for me to come back."
"Um."
As soon as the door closed, Su Wantang felt the room was empty.
She sat on the sofa, touching her belly, somewhat lost in thought.
This man really spoiled her.
She felt uneasy as soon as he left.
In the afternoon, the doorbell rang.
Su Wantang opened the door and saw a young man in a Zhongshan suit standing at the door.
"Hello, this is from the post office, there is a package for you."
Su Wantang took the package and signed for it.
After the young man left, she closed the door and looked at the package in her hand.
The package wasn't large, but it was very well packaged.
The inscription above, written in gold lettering, reads: "Congratulations to the young master of the Bai family on the birth of his son."
Su Wantang's hand paused.
Bai family young master
She looked at those eight words and her eyes became wary.
This package has an unknown origin.
She didn't open it, but put it on the table and called Qin Zheng.
"Young Miss".
"Come here."
"What happened?"
"There's a package, come and take a look."
Qin Zheng arrived quickly.
He looked at the package on the table and frowned.
Who sent this?
"I don't know," Su Wantang said. "There's no sender information."
Qin Zheng picked up the package and weighed it in his hand.
"It's not heavy, so it shouldn't be a bomb."
He carefully opened the package.
Inside was a brocade box.
The brocade box was opened, and inside lay a longevity lock.
The longevity lock is carved from Hetian jade, with exquisite workmanship and a warm, lustrous texture.
It looks very valuable.
Qin Zheng picked up the longevity lock and turned it over.
A crabapple blossom is engraved on the back.
In the center of the flower's stamen, there is a very small character.
Qin Zheng squinted for a long time but still couldn't see clearly.
"Young Miss, what character is this?"
Su Wantang took the longevity lock and took out a magnifying glass.
Under a magnifying glass, the word became clearly visible.
square.
Su Wantang's hand trembled.
This is the mark of Founder.
But this gift wasn't from Fangzheng.
Since Founder is currently in Shanghai, it's impossible for them to send packages to Beijing.
Then there's only one possibility.
Besides Fangzheng, there are other "Haitang" members in Beijing.
Moreover, this person had been silently watching over her.
Holding the longevity lock, Su Wantang felt a mix of emotions welling up inside her.
How many people still live on the "crabapple tree" left by their mother?
Why did they only show up now?
Qin Zheng looked at her expression and asked softly, "Miss, what's this?"
“My mother’s person,” Su Wantang said.
Qin Zheng was stunned.
"That……"
"Let's leave it for now," Su Wantang said. "Since they sent a gift, it means they meant no harm."
She put the longevity lock away and placed it in the drawer.
"Don't tell anyone about this yet."
"yes."
After Qin Zheng left, Su Wantang sat on the sofa and looked at the sky outside the window.
The sky over Beijing was gloomy.
She touched her belly and whispered, "Little one, you're not even born yet, and so many people are already thinking about you."
"You'd better take good care of yourself from now on."
