"Song Mu, you should change this to something hot. If I'm really pregnant, drinking something cold won't be good for the baby in my belly."
Lin Qiu handed the sweet juice in his hand to Song Mu, who immediately took it away to exchange it.
After Ling Yun's excitement subsided, he immediately became worried again: "Xiao Qiu, you can't eat like this. Not to mention the fact that you're pregnant, your body can't handle it."
Lin Qiu pursed her lips and put her hand on her belly. She didn't know how long she had been pregnant. It was also her fault that she was slow and didn't realize it until she had morning sickness.
Now that I think about it, she had a good appetite a few days ago, probably because the baby in her belly was absorbing nutrients.
She said, "I can't eat now. It's probably because the tiger cub is taking up space in my stomach. That's why I can't eat. It will be fine once I get used to it."
"How long will it take to get used to it?" Ling Yun felt a little regretful. He hadn't expected a female rabbit to have such a big reaction when she became pregnant. "If I had known, I wouldn't have let you get pregnant in the winter. At least in other seasons, if you want to eat some fresh vegetables and fruits, we can still find a way to get them for you."
Now even if they have great abilities, they can’t find anything new.
Lin Qiu thought for a moment, "Don't we still have some sweet fruit powder and potatoes at home? Aren't there a lot left?"
The cold season had already lasted for quite some time, and Lin Qiu didn't care how the food was distributed at home.
"There's enough sweet fruit powder, but there's still a little lack of potatoes. So, I'll go out and borrow some from other males tomorrow. However, the winter season is already halfway over, so they've probably finished most of it, just like us."
Unless there are females in the family, everyone will eat sparingly. Single males don’t have such plans. If there is something delicious and they like to eat, of course they will eat it first.
"It's okay, maybe it will be fine after waiting for two days." Lin Qiu was not hungry now. Although he was a little tired, he was still in good spirits.
Song Mu brought over a cup of hot sweet juice: "Xiao Qiu, drink it slowly."
"You guys should eat first, don't be affected by me."
Lin Qiu held the sweet juice and hid aside.
Ling Yun and Song Mu glanced at each other, and Song Mu said, "Xiao Qiu, we'll try our best to find what you want to eat."
Ling Yun suggested: "How about I go to the south and look for the Rat Tribe. They should still have enough potatoes stored. I'll bring some meat and animal skins over there. They should be happy to exchange them with us."
Song Mu was racking his brains. "When I was traveling before, I heard there's a kind of flower that blooms and bears fruit in the cold season. The fruit of this flower is sour and sweet, and is very popular with the females there. Otherwise, I should go to the White Bear Tribe and ask. Considering the distance, ten days round trip is enough."
"It's so cold, you guys shouldn't go out. I might be fine tomorrow, so don't go back and forth."
Although Lin Qiu never left the house, she could still feel that these days were probably the coldest time of the winter season. There was another round of snow falling outside, and it was difficult to see the road clearly when going out. It was too dangerous to leave the tribe.
Ling Yun frowned and said, "How can this be called a waste of time? Xiaoqiu, if you can't eat, then Songmu and I won't eat either!"
Ling Yun didn't mean to force Lin Qiu to eat, he was just anxious and angry about his own failure.
"Hey..." Lin Qiu held the sweet juice, bent his knees and hugged his legs in his arms, "Don't be like this, you have to eat a full meal so you can have the strength to take care of me. Otherwise, can you make me a steamed egg so I can try it?"
"Okay, there's more at home."
Ling Yun became excited and got off the kang and started working.
"Besides this, what else do you want to eat?" Song Mu gently held Lin Qiu in his arms. Lin Qiu was so angry that he laughed at the look of him wanting to hug her but not daring to.
She hugged Song Mu with her backhand, but with such force that she almost spilled the sweet juice in her hand.
"Xiao Qiu, be careful."
Song Mu steadied Lin Qiu, put down the sweet juice in her hand, and lifted her to sit on his lap: "Be careful, females are most vulnerable when they are pregnant. If you have a miscarriage, you will be in great pain."
Lin Qiu hugged him, resting his chin on Song Mu's shoulder: "Don't worry, your cub is strong and healthy!"
Lin Qiu guessed that she was pregnant not just in the past two days, but it had been a while. The fact that she hadn't been tormented by the two of them only showed that the survival ability of this litter of cubs was very strong.
Song Mu carefully placed his palm against Lin Qiu's belly. He couldn't feel anything, yet it still felt strange. "I'm worried about you. We'll probably have to wait until the weather warms up before this baby is born. It's going to be a long time before we're born, Xiaoqiu, you have to take good care of yourself."
"I don't have much to do anyway, so I just stay on the kang every day to keep fit."
"Don't edit books anymore. Don't you get tired of sitting on the table all day?" Song Mu saw Lin Qiu pouting and felt guilty. "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have let you get pregnant in the cold season."
Song Mu said the same thing to Ling Yun, and they blamed themselves together.
Lin Qiu laughed and said, "I thought you would blame each other. Why are you all so eager to admit your mistakes?"
Song Mu looked at the smiling Lin Qiu and said helplessly but seriously, "This is our child. What's Guan Lingyun's business?"
Ling Yun happened to come in and hear these words. He leaned against the wall and said quietly, "Don't be so self-indulgent. This must be Xiao Qiu and my cub. You are just an uncle."
Lin Qiu suddenly felt something was wrong, and she was immediately stared at by two pairs of eyes.
"Xiao Qiu, who do you think this kid belongs to?"
