Su strictly followed the previously stipulated quantities, changing each type of grain to a full thirty jin.

As a result, the total weight of all this grain is quite considerable.

Even so, Su and Liu worked together to shoulder this heavy burden.

Because the food was so plentiful and heavy, they walked extremely slowly and with great difficulty, but their faces were always filled with happy smiles.

After all, for them, having this food provided a sense of solid support deep in their hearts.

After purchasing the grain, they walked slowly down the street, their eyes involuntarily drawn to the other shops on both sides.

The dazzling array of goods tempted them, and they longed to purchase other necessities for their daily lives.

Unfortunately, they were already running out of food, and despite their deep longing, they could only sigh in vain, powerless to do anything about it.

Left with no other choice, they had to abandon their shopping plans and head straight for the manor.

When they arrived at the manor gate, they stopped and carefully crossed out their names in the place where the list was kept.

After doing all this, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Song Yetong, Song Wanqing, and others had been anxiously waiting at the entrance of the manor for quite some time.

Upon seeing Su and Liu return, they hurried forward and quickly took the heavy packages from their shoulders.

"Mother, you and Aunt must be exhausted!" Song Yetong looked at Liu with concern, her eyes showing a hint of heartache.

It should be noted that the manor where they lived was quite a distance from the bustling city.

Moreover, due to the large number of people going out to purchase supplies recently, the government has specifically ordered a ban on the use of horse-drawn carriages and other means of transportation to avoid traffic congestion.

Therefore, both Su and Liu walked back step by step on their own two feet.

Faced with her daughter's concern, Liu waved her hand dismissively and said with a smile, "I'm not tired at all. I'm just doing some exercise! This little bit of walking is nothing."

After saying that, she gently patted Song Yetong's shoulder, indicating that he didn't need to worry too much.

Meanwhile, the other villagers who had gone out to buy supplies also returned to the village one after another.

Unlike the Su family and others, these villagers not only purchased daily necessities, but also specially selected a large amount of clothing to keep warm.

After all, the current living conditions are unbearable, and people have to huddle together to keep warm in order to get through the long and cold nights.

After dinner, just as everyone was preparing to rest, Gu Xingzhi rushed over in a hurry, looking anxious.

Her steps were slightly hurried. As soon as she reached Liu, Gu Xingzhi grabbed Liu's arm and cried out in a trembling voice, "Shilan...Shilan is in trouble!"

Upon hearing this, Liu was startled and didn't have time to ask what had happened, because she knew that this matter must be of great importance and involved Mu Shilan.

It should be noted that since Mu Qiyang left home, despite prior instructions, Gu Xingzhi and Mu Shilan did not live with them.

On ordinary days, Liu could only visit him occasionally and offer him some care and attention.

However, at this moment, there was no news of her missing son. The only thing that could keep Liu Shi alive was the unborn child in Mu Shilan's womb.

Without hesitation, she pulled Gu Xingzhi up and rushed anxiously toward where Mu Shilan was resting.

Madam Su followed closely behind them, after all, in her eyes, she had already regarded Mu Shilan, her niece-in-law, as family.

Song Yetong had always been worried about her sister-in-law, after all, her sister-in-law was now six months pregnant, and any mishap could lead to serious consequences.

Moreover, she always believed that Song Shijun's disappearance was inextricably linked to her.

Lin Xiaoxiao, with her keen observation, saw all of this.

She smiled slightly and calmly took out a small, exquisite white porcelain bottle from her spatial storage.

This small porcelain bottle looks ordinary, but it actually contains spiritual spring water that Lin Xiaoxiao has carefully prepared.

She used this spiritual spring water to ensure that everything was in order to deal with any unexpected situations and to ensure that nothing went wrong.

They had long ago stored many of these small porcelain bottles in their space.

Each bottle contains powerful vitality and healing power, making it a priceless treasure.

At this moment, Lin Xiaoxiao gently handed the small porcelain bottle in her hand to Song Yetong.

He said softly, "If your sister-in-law feels unwell or experiences any unusual symptoms, immediately give her the spring water in this bottle. Trust me, it will greatly benefit the stability of her unborn child and help maintain the pregnancy."

Song Yetong knew that everything Lin Xiaoxiao gave her must be good, and she nodded solemnly with deep gratitude.

Then he carefully took the small porcelain bottle, as if he were holding a rare and precious treasure.

Immediately afterwards, she clutched the small porcelain bottle tightly and hurriedly followed the figure ahead as they left.

When the group arrived at Mu Shilan's residence, they found her lying on the bed, pale-faced and covered in sweat.

Gu Xingzhi hurriedly sat down by the bed, took her hand, and gently comforted her. Liu stood aside, wiping away tears anxiously.

When Song Yetong rushed over anxiously, this heartbreaking scene greeted her.

Looking at Mu Shilan lying on the bed, her face pale and her body extremely weak,

Song Yetong didn't have time to think much and quickly stepped forward, tightly holding the bottle of spiritual spring water that Lin Xiaoxiao had specially brought.

She quickly went to Mu Shilan's bedside, her eyes revealing concern, and handed the spiritual spring water to Gu Xingzhi.

She said urgently, "This is a pregnancy-preserving medicine given to me by my sister-in-law. It's said to have miraculous effects and can help stabilize the fetus. Please give it to her quickly!"

However, something unexpected happened.

Mu Shilan, who was lying on the hospital bed barely breathing, suddenly became extremely agitated after hearing the name "Lin Xiaoxiao," as if her most sensitive nerve had been touched.

With the last bit of strength she had left, she suddenly raised her hand and slammed it hard against the spiritual spring water in Song Yetong's hand.

With a sharp "crack," the precious bottle of spiritual spring water fell to the ground and shattered, splashing water everywhere.

With red eyes and an angry expression, Mu Shilan said, "I won't drink what she gives me!"
