Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space-Chapter 952: Confirmed

"Okay, you go ahead. We still have an hour until we eat. Besides, you have to work this afternoon."

"Alright, I’ll head out now. If you feel tired, just lie down."

It’s now confirmed that Lu Fengzhen is pregnant, and Li Yunqiao takes it very seriously. So he comes home every afternoon, worried she might be lonely at home. Originally, he wanted to find someone to help at home, so it wouldn’t be too tiring during the New Year. Now he has found a wife with all the right credentials, and she’s pregnant soon after.

As a man, Li Yunqiao feels proud, able to make his wife pregnant, he doesn’t feel old yet.

People are like this, cherishing Lu Fengzhen and being excessively careful about the child in her belly.

He hurriedly went to the building, holding quite a few sugar tickets, and bought four pounds of brown sugar, three pounds of fruit candy, and one pound of milk candy.

He left some at home, and the majority was taken for the three kids.

He also bought two pounds of pastries and then rushed home.

When Li Yunqiao got home, Lu Fengzhen had already prepared the meal.

Because Li Yunqiao likes spicy food, she fried some chili oil. This made the meal more enjoyable.

However, she didn’t want to eat any of it herself, she mixed sauerkraut with minced garlic and soy sauce.

Seeing his wife eat like this, Li Yunqiao felt his teeth ache, he really couldn’t imagine what the dish tasted like.

He picked up a chopstick full, but wouldn’t take a second bite.

"What’s so tasty about this dish?"

"Don’t you think it tastes good with cornbread?"

Watching his wife eat so heartily, he really couldn’t accept it.

"You eat quickly, you can still take a nap afterwards."

"Okay, I’ll cook dinner when I get back."

"No need, how would Honglin and his wife feel? I’m not unable to move, I really feel great, there’s no reaction at all. Don’t worry, I’ve been longing for this child, I’ll definitely be careful."

"I expect I won’t be back early, no need to wait for me."

"Alright."

After the meal, Li Yunqiao cleaned up the table, without needing Lu Fengzhen to do anything.

Previously, working was passive, but now he’s willing to do it from his heart.

The couple lay down, but how could Li Yunqiao fall asleep? He hugged his wife and chatted softly.

"Aren’t you going to rest?"

"This is resting now. You sleep."

By the time Lu Fengzhen woke up, it was already an hour later.

She simply tidied up the house and went to the kitchen to knead dough, planning to have cornbread for dinner, but also to make some dumplings. This would be more comfortable to eat.

When Honglin and Zheng Lihong got back, knowing they’d have dumplings today, they were quite happy.

"Aunt Lu, why did you buy so much candy?"

"Your dad said not to let Xue’er and them come back, with this big snow, the bus probably won’t run.

At noon, he brought back a guy working in his hometown. The guy is leaving the day after tomorrow morning, your dad asked to send it to Xue’er and the others."

"Yeah, with this snow, it’s indeed not possible to drive. It’s better they don’t come back." Zheng Lihong also thought it was right for them not to come back.

"You two have dinner, your dad said he’ll be back late today, let’s eat first."

Honglin shares the same taste as his dad, so he also put chili oil in the cabbage and dumplings. The two women ate pickled garlic. Honglin couldn’t eat that; it’s sour and spicy, what’s so good about it?

After dinner, Honglin was responsible for wiping the table, especially since Lu Fengzhen’s status is different now. She’s not a nanny anymore, she’s a stepmother.

The young couple had now moved downstairs, so it was quite convenient for Zheng Lihong to do anything.

"Lihong, you’re due in another month, right? Aren’t you taking leave?"

"No, it’s only a few days until the holiday, I want to rest more during the confinement period."

"With such heavy snow, the roads are slippery, make sure to be careful."

"Got it, I’ll be careful."

When Li Yunqiao returned, Lu Fengzhen immediately went to the kitchen to make him dinner; the three of them sat down and chatted together.

"Dad, aren’t you bringing meat for Xue’er and the others?"

"There’s plenty of meat in our hometown this year, they don’t need ours. The hometown also has fine grain, so we’re just sending some candy, it’s hard for others to carry extra things, after all, it takes more than ten hours."

At this time, Lu Fengzhen brought out a big bowl of dumplings, as Li Yunqiao rarely ate dry food at night, so the dumplings were sufficient.

At night, the couple lay in bed, "Honglin, dad’s taking such good care of Aunt Lu, could she be pregnant?"

"How would I know? Isn’t pregnancy normal?"

"Yeah, they’re not that old. But then there’s the age difference between the youngest uncle and the eldest nephew."

"Why think about those things? Tomorrow at noon, wait for me and we’ll go to the cafeteria together, otherwise, I won’t feel at ease."

"Alright."

Chengzi knocked on Li Yunqiao’s door in the early morning of the third day. He didn’t dare take home the things they were sending back, fearing his family might seize them, so he had to pick them up upon leaving.

Li Yunqiao handed a package to Chengzi, "Here’s some candy, if you’re hungry, you can eat some, there’s also a letter from me inside. Thank you for helping us out."

"No problem, Vice Mayor Li, I’m off now."

After sitting in the living room for a while, Li Yunqiao returned to bed and lay down.

Lu Fengzhen woke up, "Has he left?"

"Yeah, sleep."

Chengzi reached Li Family Village by six in the evening, walking for over ten hours alone was really lonely.

He didn’t go back to the pesticide factory but went straight to Li Yungui’s house, "Village Chief Li, these are things Vice Mayor Li sent back."

"Chengzi, why are you back so early?"

"There’s nothing at home, came back to earn a living."

"Haha, thank you, stay for dinner at home?"

"No, I’ll head back." Walking all day long, he just wanted to go back to bed.

But upon reaching the pesticide factory, he found the door locked, what’s this? Master Lu should have gone to Brother Wei’s house.

At the Wei Family, no one questioned him; they just let him sit down to eat.

Having not eaten all day, exhausted and hungry, looking at the sticky Laba porridge, he made a polite remark and started eating.

"Chengzi, there’s sugar here, if you like it sweet, you can add some sugar."

Chengzi just nodded; the porridge was sticky and glutinous. Even without sugar, it was particularly delicious.

After dinner, he was out of energy. Lu Tiezhu told the three to head back first. He still needed to wait for his wife.

Time quickly passed to the twenty-eighth of the twelfth lunar month, and school was out. So these two days, Jiang Xinyu was at home preparing pastries and snacks.

The kids loved the fried dough twists. There’s no choice but to continue frying more the next day.

"Aunt Jiang, I loved eating these milk-flavored fried dough twists you made when I was little," Jing Chu said while eating.

"These are very fattening; oily sweet foods are the easiest to make you gain weight." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"I’m not afraid of getting fat."

"A beautiful young girl would look bad if she gets fat."

"Then I’ll be a pretty fat girl, besides, doesn’t everyone like plumpness?"
