Lu Yuan slowly opened his eyes, a strange feeling welling up inside him. He keenly sensed that familiar and powerful force surging within him. He carefully lifted the covers, and as his feet touched the ground, a solid force instantly spread throughout his body. Then, he stood up effortlessly, as if the feeling of his legs being unable to support him yesterday had never existed.
"Wife, come quick!" Lu Yuan exclaimed to Qian Duoduo, overjoyed. "I feel like I've become decades younger!"
Qian Duoduo looked up at the sound and saw Lu Yuan standing there, full of energy, his steps steady and powerful. She stared in surprise as Lu Yuan strode back and forth in front of her. Suddenly, a classic line from a sketch comedy actor from her hometown in Northeast China flashed into her mind: "Not only can I walk, I can jog, and I can even jump!" Imagining Lu Yuan performing joyfully like that sketch comedian, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, laughing so hard she almost fell over.
Of course, she didn't tell Lu Yuan about the images in her mind, afraid of ruining his good mood. However, seeing Lu Yuan so engrossed and happy, Qian Duoduo was also filled with joy and relief.
Although Lu Yuan didn't understand why Qian Duoduo was laughing so exaggeratedly, seeing her so happy made his own smile even brighter.
After breakfast, Qian Duoduo pulled Lu Yuan around the house for a while, asking him repeatedly with concern, "Honey, are you feeling tired? Is there anything wrong with your body?" A string of questions came out of her mouth like a machine gun.
Lu Yuan smiled and replied cheerfully, "Not tired at all! It feels great!" He wasn't annoyed at all by Qian Duoduo's question.
Lu Yuan pondered to himself that since taking that miraculous longevity pill, it seemed as if the effects of the health-preserving pills he had taken in the past had been activated. At this moment, he was incredibly energetic. Let alone just walking around here a few times, even if he were to perform a standard set of military boxing on the spot, it would probably be a piece of cake.
Qian Duoduo noticed that Lu Yuan didn't show any signs of discomfort, so she nodded in satisfaction and said happily, "Today is a really good day. I have to reward you for your hard work in rehabilitation. I'm going to cook a sumptuous and delicious meal."
Hearing this, Lu Yuan said enthusiastically, "Why don't we do it together today? I'll change my clothes and go grocery shopping with you."
Qian Duoduo gently shook her head, indicating that she didn't need it, and then turned and walked towards the kitchen.
Lu Yuan followed closely behind, filled with curiosity. As soon as he entered the kitchen, his gaze was instantly drawn to the dazzling array of ingredients displayed on the counter. It was piled high with lush green vegetables, tender chicken, fresh pork, large chunks of ribs, and distinctly marbled beef, among other ingredients. Looking at this abundant sight, Lu Yuan suddenly realized that his wife didn't possess ordinary storage space, but rather a magical space capable of growing vegetables and fruits!
Upon closer examination, my space, which was only good for storing items, suddenly seemed rather useless, and a strong sense of disparity welled up in my heart. It truly lived up to the saying, "There is no harm without comparison!"
He couldn't help but lean closer to Qian Duoduo and whisper to his wife, "Honey, can this space of yours... be used to grow crops?"
Qian Duoduo nodded without hiding his agreement and replied, "That's right. Not only can you farm, but you can also raise pigs, sheep, cattle, and fish. Moreover, the vegetables, meats, and aquatic products grown in the space taste exceptionally delicious and have much higher nutritional value."
Almost all the dishes we eat at home are produced within our space! Some of the seeds I used to send to my parents were directly from there, while others were superior varieties cultivated outside for a season. After all, the fewer people who know about this magical space, the safer it is.
Lu Yuan nodded in agreement, muttering to himself, "Oh, how enviable!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo was taken aback and asked with a puzzled look, "What are you envious of?"
Lu Yuan quickly explained, "Of course I'm envious that your space can even be used for planting! Look at my space, it's like a stupid, idiotic warehouse. It's useless except for storing things. Compared to yours, it's utterly pathetic!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but laugh out loud, teasing, "Hey, you have a spatial ability? That's something only one in hundreds of millions of people can have! How much more do you want? What are you asking for?"
However, Lu Yuan replied with a blank look, "I never said I wanted a bicycle."
Upon hearing this all-too-familiar answer, Qian Duoduo burst into laughter. If she didn't know that Lu Yuan came from the apocalypse, she might have even suspected that he had secretly watched Uncle Zhao's comedy sketches. The answer was practically identical to one from the sketch.
Seeing Qian Duoduo laughing inexplicably, Lu Yuan was stunned. He frowned and emphasized again, "I'm serious, I never even thought about wanting a bicycle."
Qian Duoduo couldn't hold back any longer. She laughed while clutching her stomach, and waved her hand at Lu Yuan's eager-to-explain face, panting as she said, "Okay, okay, stop talking, let's change the subject."
Lu Yuan looked at his wife with a puzzled expression, wondering to himself why what he said was so funny. But since his wife told him not to say it, he might as well obediently shut up.
After Qian Duoduo calmed down a bit, she instructed Lu Yuan, "Come on, honey, keep an eye on the fire in the pot for me. I'm going to call my third brother and ask him to bring his wife, the kids, and my eldest sister-in-law over for dinner." With that, she turned around, sat down on the sofa, picked up the phone, and dialed her third brother Qian Mao's number.
After hanging up with her family, Qian Duoduo dialed Liu Yuan's number and warmly invited her, "Hey, Liu Yuan? Come over to my house for dinner tonight with Lu Jinghuai and Lu Heng!"
Although Liu Yuan was somewhat puzzled as to why Qian Duoduo insisted on treating everyone to dinner after such a busy schedule, she couldn't bear to miss this wonderful opportunity to savor delicious food, given Qian Duoduo's amazing culinary skills. So, she immediately called Lu Jinghuai and asked him to pick her and her son up for dinner at Qian Duoduo's house.
Lu Jinghuai bought some gifts in advance and drove his wife and son to Qian Duoduo's house early.
