Reborn with a Space: Building a Fortune Amidst Famine

Su Yuanyuan was very grateful to Feng Baoshan, as this solved her big problem.

Now the cotton stalks needed to be pruned, the other two families had already sprayed pesticides, but she hadn't yet.

She thought she could handle the pruning herself and ask them for help with spraying the pesticides afterward.

So she wrapped herself tightly and shuttled through the cotton fields.

Actually, this work wasn't very tiring, just hot and prickly.

Su Yuanyuan worked for three days before finishing pruning the cotton on ten acres of land.

This year there were still insects, and if they developed further, there could be a pest outbreak.

The insecticide on the Zhao family's cotton field had already been used up, and knowing that there were quite a lot of bugs, the Zhao sisters came to help.

With just ten acres of land, the two sisters finished the spraying in two days.

Su Yuanyuan didn't plan to do any more work, just waiting for the autumn harvest.

She fed the livestock at home every day. This year's pigs grew very well, and when the Zhao sisters were busy, Little Haiyan would be sent here.

So Su Yuanyuan didn't feel lonely. Having a child around was also very interesting.

In a good mood, there were more smiles on her face, because this year she didn't have to work day and night, nor did she get sunburned, and she paid lot of attention to her nutrition. Although she couldn't say she was chubby, she was much better than previous years.

Little Haiyan liked to come here too, because Su Yuanyuan ate and would also feed the child.

Kids are like that; as long as there's something delicious, they don't need their mom or aunt. Little Haiyan even wanted to stay overnight, but her mom wouldn't allow it.

It rained heavily again that day, and Zhao Yanli ran over in the rain to chat with Su Yuanyuan.

"There's hot water in the pot. Go wash up." Seeing the bedraggled girl, Su Yuanyuan felt this girl was really too dedicated.

Her skin got too dark. Not worrying about beauty, just thinking about making money.

Zhao Yanli didn't hold back. She took a bath, let her hair down, and got on the kang.

Su Yuanyuan shook her head with a smile and helped her dry her hair.

"Yuanyuan, there's big news."

"What happened?" Seeing the girl's angry look, she knew it couldn't be good news.

"It's about that Xiang Zhiqiang, really not a good person. Luckily, my big sister didn't agree to live with him again."

"What did he do? Didn't you always dislike him?"

"Yeah, my instincts are very accurate. He's just not a good person."

Now Su Yuanyuan was curious. What did Xiang Zhiqiang do to make the girl so angry?

Zhao Yanli didn't need Su Yuanyuan to ask.

"Xiang Zhiqiang was always coming over recently, but when it was time for the actual work, he disappeared.

He used to speak very nicely, saying things like he was strong and capable.

Nonsense, luckily we didn't count on him. When I went over for my second sister-in-law's delivery and happened to pass by Zheng Lanying's field, there I saw Xiang Zhiqiang who claimed to work for my big sister, actually helping another woman."

"Alright, it's not too late to find out now."

"But big sister was still quite hurt. Haven't you noticed it's been me bringing Haiyan over these past few days?"

"Big sister still has the idea of getting back together, right? Have you talked to her?"

"Yeah, I told her. After she found out, she didn't say anything and stopped talking much."

"As long as big sister knows, won't she give up then?"

"That's what I think too, just hoping big sister gives up."

"By the way, did the second sister-in-law have a boy or a girl?"

"A boy. Second Brother is so happy. Named my nephew Zhao Zhixue.

But he was born lighter than Xiao Ling, but he's quite strong."

"Who delivered for the big sister and second sister-in-law?"

"Their mothers-in-law, of course."

Before, she hadn't paid attention, now she knew it was those experienced women who had given birth before who helped deliver babies, which made Su Yuanyuan scared.

"No way, I must go to the hospital to give birth, I'm really afraid."

Zhao Yanli nodded hearing Su Yuanyuan's words, "I've already thought about it, I'll go to the hospital with you."

"Thank you, Xiao Li." Now she realized even more how indispensable it was to have someone around her.

"Why are you being polite to me?" Zhao Yanli grumbled with dissatisfaction.

Su Yuanyuan laughed and changed the subject, "How about Second Sister? She's about to give birth, right?"

"Should be soon, then big sister-in-law's mom will come over."

Since everything was arranged, she felt much more at ease.

When Zhao Yanli's hair was almost dry, the two lay down on the kang. Su Yuanyuan handed her a lot of dried fruits.

"Eat more sweets, it's good for you."

"Yuanyuan, you're really good at living life. Look at you and Haiyan, both are round and chubby."

"Haha, what kind of description is that? Round and chubby? It's not that exaggerated, right?"

"Yes, now I think Little Haiyan's arms are thicker than mine."

"You come over too, I'll nourish you as well."

"When do I have the time? This year is the most relaxed year yet. I don't have to weed under the scorching sun, I'm already very satisfied, feeling much more vigorous than before."

"Mm, I'll give you a piece of sausage to take back later."

"Yuanyuan, I want to make sausages this year too."

"No problem, I have all the seasonings here, and these sausages can be stored well, eating them now won't spoil."

"Yeah, I was just thinking about leaving some for now to eat."

"You and big sister shouldn't skimp on eggs either, what are you saving them for? A good body is what matters."

"I know, we both listen to you, eating one boiled egg every morning, sometimes a salted egg, we've also pickled duck eggs. Luckily we live close to the reservoir."

"Yes, many benefits come with it."

Zhao Yanli looked at Su Yuanyuan with her bulging belly, "Are you tired?"

Su Yuanyuan sighed, "Tired, it's just being by myself, lonely. Luckily, with Little Haiyan around, otherwise, who knows how sad I'd be."

"Yuanyuan, do you think if you didn't marry Tan Shaoting, and married any man who stayed by your side, would it have been different?"

Su Yuanyuan was quite touched, this girl genuinely cared for her well-being.

"I don't know, but I was with Tan Shaoting because we liked each other, I don't feel that way about anyone else.

Xiao Li, when you get married, it's best because you like each other, not just to get married."

"Me? I haven't even thought about it."

"I'm a few months younger than you, and I already have a child, and you're still like this?"

"What's wrong with that? I can't stand how Big Brother, Second Brother, and Second Sister are petty together, nor how you are, seeing each other less than once a year, and can't rely on them for anything."

"Haha, your requirements are pretty high. Do you have someone in mind?"

"No, how many outsiders do I meet?"

"True, we're too busy here. Although there's no restriction on going out, we need to have time ourselves, right?"
