In an instant, everyone in the room became happy, asking He Liu how she was feeling, and they were all filled with anticipation about whether she was pregnant.
Aunt Song chuckled and patted Su Yun'er: "Yun'er, you're a mother yourself, how come you don't know this kind of reaction in women? It's probably morning sickness."
After saying this, Aunt Song patted Old Lady Chen on the shoulder and said, "Old sister, don't you think so?"
The old lady Chen, whose name was called, smiled, but avoided looking at Aunt Song and instead glanced at a deserted corner.
Su Yun'er touched her nose shyly, thinking to herself, "That's because this child isn't mine."
Having lived in modern society, even without having given birth, Su Yun'er had access to so much film and written material that she knew the theoretical knowledge without having given birth herself. However, her first reaction was that the food she had prepared was unclean.
"I'm worried that the food I made might not be clean enough, and that my aunt might feel uncomfortable after eating it," Su Yun'er said.
"Alright, let's go to the yard. The kitchen is too crowded. Whether her aunt is feeling unwell or has morning sickness, she can't stay in the kitchen anymore."
Grandma Chen beckoned everyone back into the courtyard.
Su Yun'er recalled what had just happened and carefully considered Old Mrs. Chen's reaction, feeling that something was amiss.
Xiao Shu and Song Muqiang quickly returned with Doctor Shang.
He Liu was no longer feeling unwell. She declined somewhat shyly, but Doctor Shang only glanced at her before giving her a mysterious smile.
This smile left everyone present puzzled, yet filled with anticipation.
Doctor Shang took He Liu's pulse, nodding as he did so. After asking a few questions, Doctor Shang smiled and put away the pulse pillow. His words reassured everyone: "This lady is pregnant."
Needless to say, Guan Tianhe was overjoyed by this news. In the days that followed, Guan Tianhe became even more considerate of He Liu, treating her with utmost care and tenderness.
The lively day has finally come to an end.
As night fell, Su Yun'er drew water from the well in the courtyard to boil for a bath.
This well is now linked to the spring water in Su Yun'er's game space; the water drawn from the well is the spring water from the game space.
It has a sweet and refreshing taste, and can also relieve fatigue, remove scars and beautify the skin. It is simply an essential medicine for every household.
Amidst the rising steam, Su Yun'er removed her clothes and slowly immersed herself in the bucket of water, letting out a sigh of comfort.
With her eyes closed, Su Yun'er began to enjoy this wonderful moment.
The scene from earlier that day suddenly flashed through my mind, and what flashed through my mind was Old Lady Chen's strange reaction.
When she heard He Liu vomiting, she was genuinely worried; when she heard He Liu might be pregnant, she was genuinely happy.
But why did her gaze dart away so much when Aunt Song was talking to her?
Could it be related to her discomfort with He Liu?
But that's impossible. He Liu vomited because of morning sickness during her pregnancy. Besides, Old Mrs. Chen had no reason to "harm" He Liu.
Then why did she...?
With her eyes closed and her mind wandering, Su Yun'er felt her eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and she almost fell asleep in the bathtub.
She climbed out of the bathtub in a daze, and returned to her kang (heated brick bed) in a daze, where she fell asleep immediately.
When I woke up the next day, the sun was already high in the sky.
Grandma Chen was feeding the chickens in the yard, while Xiaoshu and Xiaocao were helping to clean the yard.
Standing at the door of her new room, Su Yun'er stretched and yawned, then felt a furry little thing rubbing against her feet.
He bent down and scooped up Gai Xue, then held her in his arms.
"Oh my, Gai Xuexue, you're getting prettier and prettier. You seem to have gained weight, you're so heavy to hug."
"Gai Xue is so clever. We bought her a few days ago, and she managed to find her way home after we moved yesterday." Old Mrs. Chen sprinkled some more chicken feed on the chickens.
A few more chicks have appeared in the chicken coop; these chicks are also products of the play area.
A few days ago, the chicken farm in the game space was completed.
In the game, you can directly buy chicks from the chicken farm. After successfully purchasing them, you need to spend points to exchange for chicken feed.
"What? I have to spend points again?"
Sue Grandet Yun'er expressed her dissatisfaction.
Although the points earned from completing tasks and daily maintenance are much higher than before—initially only a few points were randomly awarded, now they start at tens of points—there are still many places in the game where points are needed. Upgrading a single plot of land or crop can easily cost anywhere from several thousand to tens of thousands of points.
Therefore, Su Yun'er tried her best to save her points.
The feed for these chicks isn't cheap either, and Su Yun'er really couldn't bear to spend the money.
Why not try linking it to reality?
Like binding a spring, Su Yun'er manipulated the game settings and eventually succeeded in binding the chicken coop both inside and outside the game.
The chicks could be raised directly in the yard, and Grandma Chen was responsible for feeding them every day. In just a few days, they became plump.
At this moment, Su Yun'er held Gai Xue, who had gained a lot of weight, and stood outside the chicken coop, admiring the chicks.
Gai Xue showed great interest in the chubby, chattering little creatures and always wanted to rush into the chicken coop.
Just as Su Yun'er was trying her best to hold Gai Xue and protect the chicks, the three children ran to their courtyard gate.
It is Guan Xiaowen, Song Zixing, and Lin Xiaolan.
