A farmer has a shrewish wife; he's busy making money every day.

"Congratulations, Village Chief! Lady Ye is pregnant!"

Li Langzhong looked up and congratulated Lu Meng.

The moment Doctor Li removed his hand from Ye Qingxue's wrist, Ye Qingxue exhaled.

The pulse of a pregnant woman is truly difficult to imitate.

Fortunately, Dr. Li wasn't a professional either.

Lu Meng's eyes widened, his lips opened and closed, and then he burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! Good, good! I, Lu Meng, can finally have a grandson!"

Lin Zhi raised her hand and touched Ye Qingxue's face: "It would be nice if she were a granddaughter."

Lu Meng's face darkened for a moment: "Heh, it would be better if you were a grandson."

Then he instructed Physician Li to write a prescription for sour plum soup, and then asked Li You to cook it.

Ye Jing understood Lu Meng's meaning and worriedly took Ye Qingxue's hand.

Ye Qingxue patted Ye Jing's hand, signaling him not to worry.

Then, clutching her chest, her face pale but filled with joy, she exclaimed, "Father-in-law, your daughter-in-law is finally pregnant with the Lu family's bloodline! Mother and child are of one heart, and I believe this baby will definitely be a son!"

Lu Meng was satisfied and smiled, "That's right, I think so too."

Taking the opportunity, Ye Qingxue said, "Since your daughter-in-law is pregnant, could you please invite your parents into the inner room to sleep? Your daughter-in-law has not been sleeping well lately."

Lu Meng was stunned for a moment: "What kind of behavior is this?"

Seeing that Lu Meng did not seem to be firmly refusing, Ye Qingxue quickly explained, "My daughter-in-law always wakes up in the middle of the night. With my parents here, they can help take care of me in time. It wouldn't be right to have my parents-in-law come in to take care of me instead."

Lu Meng reacted quickly this time: "Then naturally we can't take care of them."

"Uh... I mean, naturally the in-laws should take better care of us."

After thinking about it, Lu Meng agreed.

In short, Xiao Ci and her daughter-in-law no longer need to have sex. It's good that someone will move in to take care of her, saving Xiao Ci the trouble.

"Okay, then I'll move the bed in for you."

Ye Qingxue quickly stood up: "Thank you, Father-in-law."

After helping his parents out of bed and picking up Ye Hao'er, Lu Meng carried the bed inside.

It was placed against the wall, next to Ye Qingxue's bed.

"Qingxue, are you going to work in the county again tomorrow?"

As soon as Lu Meng finished setting up the bed, he asked Ye Qingxue.

This was because they were afraid she wouldn't want to work if she got pregnant, and they were worried about losing the twenty coins she earned each day.

Ye Qingxue pretended to be happy and touched her belly: "Of course I have to go, to earn money for my son's future milk powder."

Lu Meng nodded in satisfaction: "My daughter-in-law is really sensible!"

Then, after giving Ye Qingxue a few more perfunctory instructions, he left the room.

As soon as Lu Meng left, Ye Qingxue put away her overly maternal expression and became excited.

"Daddy! Mommy! Come here, let me hug you again!"

The noodle shop has been doing well lately, and the new products they've introduced are very popular, earning them over six taels of silver.

Ye Qingxue was thrilled that her parents had woken up again today and that her false pregnancy had been successful, allowing them to move in.

Lin Zhiye and Ye Jing were embraced by Ye Qingxue.

Be careful with your stomach!

"Okay."

Ye Qingxue didn't want to tell Lin Zhi about the false pregnancy yet, as Lin Zhi was naive and would easily reveal her secret.

"Mother, son."

I was so excited that I forgot there was someone else in the room.

She turned to look at Lu Chuci, who was staring at her with a meaningful look in his lifeless eyes.

"Are you pregnant?"

"Uh..." Ye Qingxue suddenly felt a little embarrassed, not knowing how to explain that sleeping in the same bed could make her pregnant?

Besides, this baby isn't real, and she's afraid that if Lu Chuci actually falls for it, he'll be heartbroken.

Never mind, Lu Xiaosha probably wouldn't understand these things anyway.

"Yes, I'm pregnant. My parents will be living with us from now on."

Lu Chuci looked at Ye Jing and Lin Zhi and called out twice, "Father, Mother."

Ye Qingxue raised an eyebrow, somewhat shocked: "Wow, that's fast-talking."

But Ye Jing and Lin Zhi were clearly very satisfied.

Although the young master of the Lu family is unable to walk, he has a sweet tongue and good looks, so he should be good to their Xiaoxue.

Lin Zhi pulled Ye Qingxue to Lu Chuci's bedside, then took Lu Chuci's hand from the bed and placed it on Ye Qingxue's stomach.

"Come here, touch your baby. You two must live a good life together from now on."

Suddenly feeling the burning heat on her abdomen, Ye Qingxue's face turned slightly red.

Her mother's hands are too fast!

Lu Chuci gently stroked the baby twice, saying, "Our baby."

Ye Qingxue's face grew even hotter, and she took a step back: "Oh, okay, Mother, let's not talk about this now. You go to bed first, and I'll go to the kitchen to cook you some porridge."

Ye Jing was somewhat surprised: "Xiaoxue, how did you get food?"

Lin Zhi also looked at Ye Qingxue.

The Lu family wouldn't be so kind as to give their surplus grain to Ye Qingxue.

"Yes, and what did my father-in-law mean by 'workmanship' just now?"

"Father and Mother, let's talk while we eat, so you don't go hungry."

Lin Zhi and Ye Jing only then realized that they were a little hungry.

Ye Qingxue went into the kitchen, washed the rice and put it in the pot, then added four eggs, beat them, stir-fried them, and served.

Then I chopped the tomatoes I had harvested over the past few days, cooked them in a pan until they released their juices, added two spoonfuls of salt and half a spoonful of sugar, and then poured in the eggs.

Ye Qingxue held her breath and carefully stir-fried the eggs. When the eggs were fully soaked in the sauce, she decisively took them out of the pan!

It worked!

The only thing I know how to make is scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and it's pretty good!

A sweet and sour aroma wafts through the air, filling the room.

Ye Qingxue waved her hand, drawing all the fragrance into the space to prevent others outside, especially the Lu family couple, from smelling it.

After waiting a while longer, the rice was ready.

This time, Ye Qingxue didn't cook porridge; instead, she cooked a pot of rice.

My parents have just recovered, so they need to eat something good.

When the food was served, Lin Zhi and Ye Jing both widened their eyes.

"This... Xiaoxue! You don't need to make so much for us, it's such a waste."

"Yes, even if we have food, we shouldn't waste it like this."

Ye Qingxue shook her head: "Mother, I've started a business in the county. We have a lot of money now, and we can live a good life!"

Then Ye Qingxue told Lin Zhi and Ye Jing what she had been doing recently.

After listening, the couple remained silent for a long time.

Ye Jing was somewhat shocked: "Xiaoxue, is what you're saying true?"

Tears welled up in Lin Zhi's eyes: "Xiao Xue, this must be very hard for you?"

Ye Qingxue nodded and then shook her head: "Dad, it's true. Mom, I'm fine. Making money isn't tiring at all. I'm so happy! Once I've earned enough money to buy a house in the county, I'll take you there right away."

As he spoke, he took out the newly bought coats and put them on for them.

"Mom and Dad, I bought this coat in the county. It's very warm. Now that winter is here, you should put it on."

Ye Hao'er felt the long-lost warmth again and burst into laughter.

Lin Zhi touched the warm coat, feeling not only her body but also her heart warm, and she smiled with satisfaction.

This child seems to have grown up all of a sudden.

She was still just a little girl who had just come of age.

Ye Jing pulled his coat tighter and excitedly shoveled down two large mouthfuls of rice.

Speaking unclearly: "Since that's the case, let's eat to our hearts' content and not let Xiaoxue's efforts go to waste."

Lin Zhi responded and picked up her chopsticks to put a piece of egg in her mouth.

"It's sweet and sour, and has the aroma of eggs. Mmm! It's so delicious! Go get some for Xiao Lu too."

Only then did Ye Qingxue remember Lu Chuci, and she quickly served him a bowl.

Ye Jing also picked up a piece of tomato and put it in her mouth: "Mmm! What kind of vegetable is this? It's sweet and sour, very appetizing!"

Lu Chuci received her meal and ate it slowly, a hint of amazement flashing in her eyes.

After giving the food to Lu Chuci, Ye Qingxue sat down and ate with him, saying, "This is called a tomato, and it's very nutritious."

"tomato?"

What is a tomato?

Ye Jing and his wife exchanged a glance, their tone somewhat puzzled.

Ye Qingxue was stunned: "This era... no, we don't have this here?"

Lin Zhi shook her head: "I have never seen such vegetables before."

Ye Jing shook his head: "I've never heard of it either."

Ye Qingxue's eyes lit up!

Since this era doesn't have it, then isn't this tomato just something she has?

The tomato and shredded pork noodles were Ye Qingxue's planned new product for tomorrow, but now it seems that this new product will have to be changed!
