Interstellar travel, a beloved companion, a magnificent and turbulent otherworld.
Chapter 179 Are the Beigong Family and the Imperial Family Willing to Back Down? They Send Rare Gift
Mo Li stayed in the small vegetable garden until lunchtime. When she came downstairs, the dining table was already full of nutritious meals that the chef had specially prepared for her. Looking at the colorful, fragrant, and delicious dishes, and smelling the aroma of the food, she smiled and praised him generously: "The chef is really getting better and better. Later, I'll make some more recipes for you."
"Thank you for your recognition, Miss. I will continue to work hard."
"Madam," she paused, then continued, "from now on, you may all call me Madam."
She only belatedly realized the awkwardness of the robots' way of addressing her, and after a moment's thought, she corrected it.
"Ok."
"Okay, ma'am."
"Yes, ma'am."
"lady."
Mo Li was very satisfied with her four robots and had to admire the advanced interstellar technology. They had all been upgraded to the highest level. The appearance, parts, and cores of robots like Kyle and Kelly had all been uniformly updated and optimized. In her daily life, she did not feel the rigidity of mechanical robots. On the contrary, they were very human-like.
Sometimes, she would have a sudden realization that she was communicating with normal humans. Of course, she also learned the reason from Dongfang Yu and the others.
Because genes are implanted in their core areas, they have a human-like quality, and the chips in their mechanical brains are programmed to be anthropomorphic.
After lunch, just as she was about to return to her bedroom for a nap, Kyle came over with a gift: "Madam, this is a gift from the Beigong family. They specifically instructed that it must be delivered to you."
"The Beigong family?"
Mo Li instantly became alert, her gaze falling on the large box. She had a bad feeling about it and waved her hand, saying, "Let's move it a little further away before opening it."
Kyle obeyed her and moved the box away from her before opening it. Inside, he saw many boxes of special natural ingredients specially supplied to the Beigong family.
Kelly stepped forward and opened one of the small boxes. Inside was a fruit that emitted wisps of cold air and was covered with a layer of frost. There were five such fruits in the box.
"Ice-pregnant fruit?"
Mo Li was extremely surprised by this. You see, this fruit is essential for pregnant women. Even for genetically modified humans, the embryo will produce pregnancy fire during pregnancy. If it is not removed before the third month of pregnancy, it will not only cause genetic damage, but also affect mental strength and superpowers. Therefore, its value is quite high and it is a rare treasure.
It was monopolized by the Beigong family, and it was because of its existence that the Beigong family's position was so unshakeable.
For naturally conceived women, one fruit is needed for each embryo to develop. Natural gene humans need to have the Ice Pregnancy Fruit refined into a potion by a pharmacist. One fruit can be refined into one hundred potions, and each gene embryo only needs one potion.
Moreover, the ice-pregnant fruit only ripens with the first natural snowfall of winter each year, and the ripe fruit must be harvested within a week. Even in the best storage boxes, placed in a cold storage, it can only be stored for a maximum of eight months.
What puzzled her most was that, given her current relationship with the Beigong family, how could they so generously and proactively give her five Ice Pregnancy Fruits? Clearly, they were taking care of all five children in her womb.
Out of caution, Mo Li released his special ability to carefully inspect all five Ice Pregnancy Fruits. There were no problems; their quality was still top-notch.
"How can this be?"
After talking to herself, Mo Li frowned. She always knew the old saying, "Those who offer kindness for no reason are either up to no good or have ulterior motives." She didn't believe that after their relationship had deteriorated to the point of irreconcilable enmity, the Bei Gong family would still have the idea of turning hostility into friendship.
"Kyle, open the other boxes."
As each box was opened, Mo Li's brows furrowed more and more, a sense of unease creeping into her heart.
Because the box contained only natural ingredients and various fruits that were monopolized by the Beigong family and not even sold to the public, which were extremely nourishing for her as a pregnant woman.
unreasonable?
That's completely illogical!
"Kyle, did the person who gave you the gift say anything else?"
"He only said that his eldest daughter still wants to be friends with you and looks forward to your visit."
A sentence immediately popped into Mo Li's mind: "A weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken has ulterior motives."
She pondered for a moment, her brows gradually relaxing. She gently patted the armrest of the sofa and murmured to herself, "I see. I knew it."
"Kelly, organize all of these and list them on our StarNet shop. They're all rare and precious items, and I'm sure many people will send you StarCoins willingly."
"Okay, ma'am."
Just after Kyle moved the large box away, he brought in another large box from outside.
"Madam, this was sent by Princess Di Dai."
Mo Li ate her small cake while glancing at it casually and asked, "What did the person who delivered it say?"
"Just tell them that you need to go to the princess's residence. Don't be ungrateful."
"Ha, she really is always like this, her style hasn't changed at all. Times have changed, this is the imperial era, ha, Princess, it seems she still hasn't realized her current situation?"
"Madam, would you like it opened?"
Mo Li had no interest in the things the Emperor sent. For such a high and mighty princess to send her these things was nothing more than a gesture of charity.
"No need, take it to Kelly, and sort it out while you're at it. Just list it on StarNet and sell it as usual."
Based on the principle of reciprocity, Mo Li decided to accept Bei Gong Xue'er and Di Dai's invitation. Well, she definitely didn't want to see the two of them in their current miserable state.
Twenty minutes later------
Mo Li received more gifts from the two lackeys, along with an invitation to visit them.
Looking at the invitation in her hand, she couldn't help but laugh: "They're all so enthusiastic, it's really hard for me to refuse their hospitality."
However, her lackeys were not worthy of her going to the trouble of visiting them in person. She decided to go see the national goddess Beigong Xue'er and the empire's princess Di Dai first, as she could not suppress her curiosity to explore.
The poison from the little vine is so potent that even those with supernatural abilities cannot withstand its effects; it's difficult for them to remain neither human nor ghost.
"Kelly, help me get ready. Tomorrow we're going to visit the Beigong family and the princess's residence in the Imperial Palace."
"Yes, madam, I will make the arrangements and will also notify the guards to escort you throughout the journey."
After arranging everything, she looked out through the living room's floor-to-ceiling windows. Their house was surrounded by a huge crowd. If it weren't for the villa's excellent soundproofing, she could have heard the blessings and cheers from outside.
It seems that their house has now become a lively and bustling gathering place. Even though she didn't go out to meet and greet them, their enthusiasm never waned.
"Kyle, go and inform the guards that I need to meet with some people outside later. It's not good to keep ignoring these enthusiastic guests who come to visit. The live stream hasn't started yet, so let's start it now."
