Female-to-male: I live on farming

"What do you want to eat?" Qin Ke had a smile on his face, his eyes were bright and clear, and the tenderness in his eyes seemed to be about to flow out of tears.

"I want something spicy." Lu Youqing also found that her taste had changed a lot recently, and her mood was also fluctuating. She was no longer interested in the things she liked to eat before, but instead had a strong desire for some foods that she was not very interested in before.

Her mood also became extremely sensitive, sometimes excited and sometimes depressed.

When she was outside, she was fine, she could control her temper and maintain her rationality. But once she got home and relaxed, a small thing could cause her mood to fluctuate.

But no matter what time, Qin Ke tolerated her without limits. When she was hungry at night, no matter what she wanted to eat, Qin Ke would satisfy her request and never showed impatience.

For example, at this moment, hearing that she wanted to eat something spicy, Qin Ke got off the bed, put on his shoes, and prepared to go to the small kitchen to make something for her.

Looking at his back, Lu Youqing lowered her head and stroked her bulging belly, feeling endless peace and happiness in her heart.

While waiting, Lu Youqing simply got out of bed, put on his coat, sat at the dining table, and waited with his chin in his hand. Qin Ke just said that something new was made in the kitchen today, but he didn't know what it was.

Qin Ke didn't spend much time there. Ever since Lu Youqing became pregnant, her appetite had increased, and she would get hungry easily at night, so someone was left on duty in the kitchen. Moreover, the food had been prepared early in the morning, so he only had to cook it.

"smell good!"

Lu Youqing straightened up and looked curiously at what Qin Ke brought over.

The fragrance in the air makes people salivate.

"What is this?" Lu Youqing looked at the bowl of red noodles on the table. Let's call it noodles, because she had never seen such transparent noodles before.

Qin Ke first wiped her hands with a wet towel, then handed her the chopsticks and explained, "This is hot and sour noodles. The noodles are made from sweet potato noodles. Come and try it to see if it suits your taste."

Qin Ke planted twenty acres of sweet potatoes this year. In addition to sending some to the Princess's Mansion, he kept a few hundred kilograms for himself. The rest needed to be saved for seeds, so Qin Ke didn't have much in his hands.

Some of the sweet potatoes had been eaten before, and now the remaining sweet potatoes were ground into sweet potato powder by Qin Ke. The sweet potatoes were large in weight, but they contained a large proportion of water, so once they were ground into powder, only a small part of them would be obtained.

Qin Ke mixed the ground sweet potato flour with water and boiled it into a paste, then squeezed it into strips. The flour was not enough to share with others, so Qin Ke thought that if Lu Youqing liked it, then all the flour would be kept for her.

Just make do with it this year, and when the sweet potatoes are ripe next year you won’t have to worry about not having enough to eat.

Qin Ke had made hot and sour noodles in his previous life. The soul of hot and sour noodles is the sauce. Qin Ke experimented and pondered the secret sauce for a long time before he finally made it. Add the brightly colored chili oil and this is the essence of hot and sour noodles.

Then scoop a spoonful of the fragrant bone soup. The umami taste collides with the spicy flavor of the special base, together with the sour and fragrant aged vinegar, it is simply the ultimate delicacy.

Qin Ke also added some bean sprouts, kelp and peanuts as auxiliary ingredients.

Lu Youqing couldn't help herself when she smelled the aroma of the hot and sour noodles. She took the chopsticks handed to her by Qin Ke, picked up a noodle and put it into her mouth. Her mouth was instantly filled with the acetic acid taste from the hot and sour soup and the spicy taste from the chili pepper, stimulating her taste buds.

The powder was crystal clear and had a soft, tender and smooth texture, which made her unable to resist tasting it.

It was clearly the coldest time of the year, but Lu Youqing was already sweating from eating so much. Qin Ke wiped the sweat off her forehead with a smile on his face.

"Okay, I can't eat the rest." Lu Youqing put down her chopsticks after eating for a while. Although she was often hungry, her appetite was still not big, not to mention that she had just had dinner in the evening.

Because she had just eaten something spicy, her lips were redder and fuller than usual.

Qin Ke took the chopsticks from her hand with ease and helped her finish the remaining hot and sour noodles. This was a common occurrence between them. Sometimes when Lu Youqing was hungry at night and wanted to have a midnight snack, Qin Ke would help her finish the food she couldn't finish.

Not to mention, Qin Ke took a bite and found it tasted really good. If he hadn't already had dinner, he would have eaten at least two bowls. He even drank up all the soup in the end.

"Puchi—look at what you're eating." Lu Youqing looked at Qin Ke's red lips and laughed.

Qin Ke took the handkerchief she handed over and wiped his mouth, then brought some mouthwash and asked, "How do you think it tastes?"

"Yeah, I like it very much. It's sour and spicy. My appetite has become so strange now." Lu Youqing spit out the mouthwash and couldn't help but sigh.

"It's okay, this is a normal reaction to pregnancy. If you like it, I'll make it for you next time you want to eat it."

The two of them got on the couch again. Qin Ke put his hand on her belly and hugged her, saying, "I have already contacted the midwife. I will bring her to the mansion one month before the birth."

"It's only been more than three months, there's no need to be so anxious." Lu Youqing closed her eyes and lay lazily in his arms.

"It will be more reassuring if you make plans in advance." After Qin Ke said this, he found that she had closed her eyes and her breathing became even, obviously she had fallen asleep.

Lu Youqing has been very sleepy lately and often falls asleep while chatting. Qin Ke is no longer surprised. He gently tucks the corners of the quilt for her and closes his eyes.

The next day, the eldest princess sent someone to call them to the palace early in the morning to discuss matters.

It was the coldest time of the year and the wind was biting. Qin Ke tied Lu Youqing's cloak on her before taking her out. When they arrived, they found that Xiao Anyi and others were already waiting in the conference room. It seemed that there was something important to discuss today.

"Please sit down." Jinyang knew that she was pregnant, so when he saw Lu Youqing, he didn't ask her to bow and directly gave her a seat.

After everyone was present, Jin Yang passed down the two memorials in his hand and said in a deep voice, "These arrived last night. You can all take a look."

Jin Yang's face was solemn and deep, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his eyes were also a bit heavy. Qin Ke guessed at a glance that she was not in a good mood, which made him curious. What was the matter in the memorial?

The memorial was passed down from her right hand, and it took a long time before it reached Qin Ke's hands.

Qin Ke curiously took the memorial from Lu Youqing and opened it. It was filled with dense writing. He lowered his head and read it carefully. The one with fewer words turned out to be the emperor's edict to the eldest princess, ordering her to come to Beijing before the end of the year.

Qin Ke's expression became more and more solemn. Another memorial was sent to Liangzhou at full speed. There was indeed no good news in it. It described in detail the snow disaster in Yizhou area.

Due to heavy snow and a sudden drop in temperature, a large number of houses collapsed, and people were displaced and their lives were in trouble. Many people lost their homes and loved ones, and their survival was seriously threatened.
