Song Li ran back directly. When she got home, she put down the backpack and couldn't wait to enter the space.
Five potatoes and five sweet potatoes were planted, and the seedlings were already turning slightly yellow.
She found a hoe in the space and dug out all ten seedlings. There were more than a dozen fruits hanging under each seedling.
The varieties planted by Song Li were not big, but the soil in the space was fertile, so the potatoes and sweet potatoes grown were much larger than those she planted, and all of them were of good quality and emitted a faint fragrance.
Song Li picked up two each and left the space. Thinking of the rumored function of the water condensation beads, she washed the sweet potatoes and took a bite.
The sweet potato had a yellow core and was sweet and crispy. It tasted better than any other variety she had ever eaten. And she didn’t know if it was the effect of the hydrogel beads, but she felt warm after eating it.
Although the original owner didn't have any major problems, she had many minor ailments. Due to lack of nutrition, her face was pale, her hair was dry, and her hands were a little rough. Moreover, her two children were born at home, and she didn't take good care of herself during the confinement period, so she was in excruciating pain every time she had her period.
Now, after eating a sweet potato, Song Li’s biggest feeling is that her lower abdomen feels very comfortable, and the skin on her hands has also become noticeably better.
It seems that the rumors are true. The spiritual plants grown in the soil improved by the water condensation beads are spiritual plants.
Song Li was so excited holding the sweet potato in her hand. With the resources in this land and space, as long as she didn't do anything stupid, she wouldn't have to worry about her future.
Song Li went to the space and took out a few more, intending to make some snacks for the children.
Potatoes are delicious no matter how they are cooked. She plans to make some baked potatoes, which will be very fragrant if sprinkled with chili powder. Sweet potatoes can be steamed and made into pies, which Qingqing will definitely like.
Thinking of the two children, Song Li couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth.
But before she could enter the kitchen, He Linyuan brought the child in with a cold face.
"I'll take them to Jing City this afternoon and let my aunt take care of them for a few months. After the New Year, I'll take them directly with me to join the army."
"Why so sudden? Didn't you agree that I would take care of them?"
Song Li was confused. He was fine when he left home in the morning. Why did he suddenly change his mind?
"Mommy, woo woo woo, Qingqing baby, don't leave mommy."
The little girl had been holding back tears all the way, and she broke down when she saw Song Li.
For the first time, He Linyuan turned cold towards his daughter, "Mingze, take your sister to pack her things."
He Mingze pursed his lips. Compared to his impatience yesterday, he was actually a little hesitant today. But when he thought of the things women do, he pulled his sister away.
"Qingqing, follow your brother."
"Mom, woo, woo, woo, please beg Dad, Qingqing baby doesn't want to go to Beijing, Mom..."
Qingqing's tears were heartbreaking. Song Li clenched her hands and asked He Linyuan, "Do we have to leave?"
Could it be that something happened during this half day that she didn't know about?
He Linyuan's deep eyes fell on her face. Song Li's distressed expression could not be faked, but that was what made it even more terrifying.
He was afraid that Song Li would continue to abuse the child after he left, and his current heartache was all fake.
"Um."
The man's expression was cold. Song Lise smiled and said, "Okay, I understand."
The woman's beautiful eyes were watery, and the bitter smile on her lips made He Linyuan feel heavy in his chest.
"I will still send you the monthly allowance. If you need anything else, you can write to me."
After all, she is the mother of two children, and He Linyuan didn't want to do anything too extreme.
"No need." Song Li's eyelashes trembled slightly. "Just send the allowance to the two children, not to me."
She was not a fool, and she could tell that He Linyuan wanted to separate the two children from her.
"When it's convenient for you to divorce, just send the divorce report back and I agree to sign it."
"Song Li..."
She was so calm that He Linyuan felt like he had done something wrong.
Song Li looked up, blinked away the bitterness in her eyes, and smiled at him, "When are we leaving? I'll prepare some food for the two children on the way. If you're not in a hurry, just wait a little while."
He Linyuan wanted to pack his luggage and leave, but when he saw the forced smile on Song Li's face, he paused and nodded, "Thank you for your help."
“It should be.”
In the kitchen, Song Li rubbed her eyes.
She had only spent two days with the two children, but she was reluctant to part with them.
Especially those dreams from the previous life, the voices of children crying for their mothers lingered in her ears, and Song Li felt even more heartbroken.
The only thing that can comfort her now is that He Linyuan treats the two children very well, and even without her, the two children can live well.
Song Li sniffed and lowered her head to eat.
For the last meal, she wanted to make more delicious food. Both of her children were in poor health. She could have used spiritual plants to slowly nourish them, but now she had to leave suddenly, so she could only make as much as possible.
In addition to baked potatoes, potatoes also include shredded potato pancakes, French fries, and rice-crusted potatoes, while sweet potatoes are made into roasted sweet potatoes, sweet potato pancakes, and fried sweet potato balls.
The fragrance drifted into the living room, and Qingqing cried even more pitifully, with tears and saliva flowing out together.
She hugged He Linyuan's legs and sobbed, "Dad, you take brother away, Qingqing stays with mom."
She is not afraid of the cold and does not need to wear a cotton-padded jacket. And her mother is so pitiful. She and her brother are gone, and her mother is the only one left at home.
He Mingze had a stern face and looked at his sister as if she were a little traitor.
He actually didn't want to leave, but he was too embarrassed to say it directly like his sister.
Song Li quickly prepared the food. She cooked most of the sweet potatoes and potatoes in the space, filling up an entire bamboo box. The box had a lid, making it very convenient to carry. She also wrapped it in a bundle to keep it from getting cold.
"The potato pancakes need to be eaten as soon as possible, but the others can be kept for a while. The roasted potatoes dipped in chili powder are delicious. I've wrapped a small bag in oil paper, so you can take it yourself..."
"good."
He Linyuan took it and his fingers touched the back of the woman's hand. The delicate touch made his fingertips shrink slightly.
He Linyuan was very uneasy at this time. If Song Li had quarreled with him as usual, he would have felt more at ease. But now, it seemed as if he was an unforgivable evil man who was separating the mother and daughter.
"Oh, and there are clothes for the two children. Jingshi isn't like Daxingtun where every family has a kang, so they need thicker cotton-padded jackets. I went to the city today and bought them two sets of clothes. Let's change into them too."
Song Li took out two down jackets and cotton pants from her backpack. She had three boxes of children's clothes stored in her space, and she would not be able to provide clothes for both children in the future.
The more Song Li thought about it, the more her nose felt sore.
There are two down jackets, one pink and one blue. They feel light and soft, and the material and style are better than those sold in department stores.
He Linyuan's eyes suddenly widened, and he suddenly thought of something, "Where did you buy the clothes?"
Song Li said, "Black market."
"I know it's wrong to go to the black market, but I don't have a ticket, so I have to buy it there."
"So...you went to the black market to buy clothes for your two children?"
He Linyuan's voice was hoarse as he stared into Song Li's eyes.
"Um."
Seeing Song Li nod, He Linyuan stood up.
"Comrade Song Li, I want to apologize to you."
