Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

As for the apple trees, thankfully, saplings have already sprouted. In another two weeks, we'll be able to enjoy the fruit.

In addition to 27 pigs, 10 ewes, 20 lambs, and 80 chickens, there are now 20 red-tailed chickens in the breeding area.

This was a tenfold return of the two red-tailed chickens in the yard. The chickens were incredibly beautiful, and the eggs were delicious. Su Wanqing couldn't help but look forward to slaughtering and roasting a few more in the future.

"Wait a minute! The red-tailed chicken has hatched chicks?"

The breeding area now has over a dozen red-tailed chicks, all newly hatched, pecking at the food alongside their mother. It seems the environment of the breeding area is perfectly suited for their reproduction, requiring almost no intervention from her.

"Not only have there been more chicks, but also dozens of eggs!" Su Wanqing quickly used her consciousness to collect the eggs into the grid. There were also a few crushed eggs on the ground, which made her feel very sorry for them. It seems that she needs to make some chicken coops for these chickens.

In contrast, the chicks she raised in the backyard in reality hadn't grown up yet, while the batch of chickens in her space, which she obtained through a tenfold return, had already entered the egg-laying period due to their accelerated growth, although the first batch of eggs they laid were all on the smaller side.

After feeding the livestock once more, Su Wanqing exited the consciousness space.

She only noticed that Zhou Yanshen was slowly moving her hand away.

Su Wanqing: "..." Pretending not to be awake, she reached out her hand again.

Zhou Yanshen's body stiffened slightly: "..." He sighed helplessly.

"You're not asleep yet, Wanqing?" he asked in a low voice, a hint of amusement in his voice, as if he'd been caught red-handed. "I thought you were asleep."

"Why aren't you asleep either?" Su Wanqing asked vaguely, burying her face in the crook of his neck.

"You really don't know?" Zhou Yanshen's voice was a little hoarse as he grasped her restless hand.

"Huh?" She really didn't know!

Zhou Yanshen usually falls asleep very quickly. If he wants to sleep, he can fall asleep the next second after talking, but he also wakes up very quickly.

Su Wanqing was the type who needed to doze off for a while after waking up, but Zhou Yanshen's eyes were full of calm the moment he opened them.

Zhou Yanshen then took her hand and moved it slightly, allowing her to feel some changes.

Su Wanqing's fingertips trembled, and she instantly understood: "..."

Well, she didn't expect that just touching her abs would make the virile man next to her so aroused that he couldn't sleep.

Just as she was about to pull her hand back, Zhou Yanshen rolled over, his warm chest enveloping her, pulling her into his arms and pressing her tightly against him. "Don't move, just sleep like this," he said, his voice suppressed.

"Then...aren't you uncomfortable?" Su Wanqing felt a little guilty.

"It's okay," Zhou Yan took a deep breath and hugged her even tighter. "It'll be fine in a bit." What else could he do? His wife wasn't feeling well, so he had to endure it no matter how uncomfortable he was.

"Then go to sleep."

the next day.

As dawn broke outside, Su Wanqing groggily opened her eyes. Zhou Yanshen was no longer beside her, but his body heat and scent still lingered in the blankets. She stirred, feeling refreshed and without the sticky discomfort she usually experienced on the first day of her period.

She instinctively reached down and touched herself—good, good! Zhou Yanshen had actually changed her menstrual pad quietly in the middle of the night!

She didn't know how he changed her clothes, but she didn't feel a thing while sleeping. In her drowsy state, she turned over and fell asleep again.

When I woke up again, the sunlight outside the window was already quite bright.

A small low table was placed beside the kang (a heated brick bed), on which were laid out: boiled eggs, a small dish of pickled vegetables, boiled corn, boiled sweet potatoes, and two steamed buns. All the food was carefully covered with a large bowl to keep it warm. Su Wanqing reached out and touched it; the bowl and the food were still warm.

She stretched contentedly, then slowly got up to wash and eat breakfast while sitting on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed).

The house was quiet; no one was home. Zhou Yanshen and his mother must have gone to work, and Uncle Ding and Lin Tingting were nowhere to be found either. But being home alone, with all the peace and quiet, was so wonderful!

After breakfast, Su Wanqing strolled into the yard. On a whim, she put the two red-tailed chickens in her house into her spatial breeding compartment, and then used her mind to create two more dazed clones.

In this way, the two real creatures can enjoy ten times the growth rate in the space and lay more eggs.

When she arrived at the courtyard, she noticed a new eight-inch bicycle in the corner, which she guessed Liu Shuqing had secretly delivered that morning. Secretary Li hadn't forgotten to look after her even after his promotion; she remembered this favor and would definitely visit him with gifts to offer her congratulations once the official transfer order arrived.

Su Wanqing went to the kitchen again, mixed coarse flour with cornmeal, a little oil, a little salt, warm water and a stiff dough, and prepared to make some compressed biscuits for Zhou Yanshen.

While the dough was rising, she didn't rest. She slid her consciousness into her spatial dimension and found the cotton and soft cotton fabric she had previously stockpiled. She pressed the cotton firmly and, with swift needle and thread, quickly sewed herself more than a dozen disposable menstrual belts.

After finishing, I immediately used "Golden Spirit Infusion" to get a tenfold return. Seeing the menstrual belt instantly fill a whole bar, I felt at ease. This would be enough for at least a long time.

To be honest, her cheat code is really convenient!

Having been in the countryside for so long, she's only received a third of the initial resources—more than a hundred slots in her spatial storage—at a tenfold return rate. Many unused items remain untouched. She's not in a hurry; she'll take it slow and work her way up.

I had just finished sewing the menstrual belt and put the needle and thread away when there was a loud knocking on the gate of the yard.

She got up to open the door, and standing outside were Chen Xiuer and her mother, Aunt Wang, carrying several large bundles.

As soon as Aunt Wang saw Su Wanqing, her face lit up with a smile. "Girl! Xiuer is officially out of confinement now. I have to go back to the city today, but I had to come see you again before I left to bring you some local specialties! Thank you for saving Xiuer and her baby's lives twice! I'm so touched... I don't even know what to say!"

As she spoke, Chen Xiuer, carrying the baby on her back, deftly carried several large bags into the yard. "Dr. Su, these include braised duck and sesame oil chicken from my hometown, as well as some salted duck eggs and dried daylily buds that my mother made herself. They're all things that keep well and taste delicious!"

It was a huge bag, full of the things that Aunt Wang had brought onto the train back then.

Su Wanqing was stunned for a moment: "..." How come all the things that Aunt Wang brought from her hometown were moved here?

Before she could even refuse, Aunt Wang pulled her into the yard, and Chen Xiuer also put her things in the yard, afraid that she wouldn't accept them.

Aunt Wang's tone was tinged with indignation, "Originally, I was thinking of giving these things to Xiu'er so she would have some confidence in her husband's family. But now I understand, rather than letting those heartless ingrates benefit from them, it's better to give them all to our savior!"
