Futuristic Chef Transmigrated As Mother

Chapter 385 - 385 What Are They Doing?



385 What Are They Doing?

Mrs. Kong was still reluctant for them to leave. She said half-jokingly, “Why don’t you stay for today and start school straight away?”

Zhuang Zhuang widened his eyes and stammered, “Uh… I think I’d better not. My heart is still scattered at the moment. I’ll go home and let it settle first. Hehe…”

Everyone could see through his thoughts. The adults looked at each other and decided to tease him.

Xiaoguo smiled and deliberately thought for a moment. Then, she said, “How about this? We’ll stay here today.”

“I think so too,” Qin Anming said.

“Alright, stay behind then.”

Mr. Kong chimed in with a smirk.

“Perfect. I have already cleaned up Zhuang Zhuang’s room anyway.”

Mrs. Kong said as she led him over.

Zhuang Zhuang looked at Xiaoguo helplessly. Although he was a little smarter than children his age, he was still a child. For a moment, he was unable to respond.

Zhuang Zhuang was feeling completely confused. He could only shake his head vigorously and look towards Xiaoguo for help.

In the end, they returned home safely. Zhuang Zhuang lay on the bed looking like he had just survived a disaster.

He still wanted to play for a few more days… After all, his uncle was also at home. It was more lively with him around…

Qin Anming stopped the donkey cart at the door and did not enter. Then, he shouted into the house, “Zhuang Zhuang, let’s go now.”

“Oh… Coming!”

Zhuang Zhuang got up and hung his small bag on the clothes rack.

“Let’s go…”

Zhuang Zhuang ran outside and greeted Xiaoguo and Mrs. Yang.

“Go on. Don’t wander around. Stay close to Uncle.”

“Got it…”

Zhuang Zhuang nodded happily and got onto the donkey cart by grabbing Qin Anming’s hand.

It was obvious that he was looking forward to the outing with his uncle.

After the donkey cart left, Xiaoguo closed the door and returned to the house. She sat down beside Mrs. Yang.

“Where did Zhuang Zhuang and your brother go?”

“They are going to collect melon vines. There’s a melon farmer in Qin Manor who just harvested the melons. No one wants the remaining vines on the ground, so we are collecting them to feed the animals.”

“I see…”

Xiaoguo glanced at her and smiled helplessly. In fact, she was planning to go with Qin Anming and Zhuang Zhuang. But she suddenly recalled that Mrs. Yang had talked about coming over in the afternoon. Hence, she turned around and came back to the village.

As expected, Mrs. Yang was already sitting at the entrance of her house, chewing on something. Looking at the fruit that she was holding, some parts of the core were already visible. She could tell that Mrs. Yang had been waiting for a while.

Xiaoguo shook the water off her hands and handed a washed pear to Mrs. Yang. “Eat this, it’s a little sourish pear.”

Mrs. Yang licked her lips and took it happily. After taking a bite, she looked extremely satisfied.

Xiaoguo looked at her and swallowed a mouthful of saliva silently. It was hard to imagine anyone eating a sour pear so happily.

Earlier on, at Kong’s residence, they were sitting and hanging out after dinner when they suddenly saw a bag of fresh pears on the ground. Feeling curious, they asked about the bag of fruits and found out they were harvested from a pear tree in the couple’s courtyard. However, the pears were extremely sour. Neither of the old couple had the courage to eat them. They were afraid that their teeth would not survive the torture.

Mrs. Yang sighed with emotion. When she was young and pregnant, she always craved for these sourish pears in her hometown. She couldn’t go one day without eating them. Now, she couldn’t eat them anymore. If she ate one mouthful, she would most likely lose her teeth.

Hearing her words, Xiaoguo immediately thought of Mrs. Yang, so she brought back a lot of pears for her.

As expected, she loved the pears.

“There’s another bag on the table. Bring it home later.”

“How can I…” Although Mrs. Yang sounded like she was too embarrassed to take them, she looked overjoyed. “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. I brought them specially for you.”

Xiaoguo smiled and handed her another one. She had specially washed two pears in order to ration them. Otherwise, based on Mrs. Yang’s usual style, the pears would be completely wiped out in no time.

“Eat less of this. Don’t finish them all in one go.”

Looking at Mrs. Yang, who was eating two or three mouthfuls at a time, Xiaoguo instructed her worriedly.

“Got it. I will just eat two a day.”

Xiaoguo looked at her strangely. “Why are you suddenly so obedient?”

“Sigh, my mother sent me a basket of hawthorns some time ago. I got greedy and ate half a basket in a day. I got sick and it took me a long time to recover.”

Mrs. Yang said nonchalantly, but Xiaoguo was shocked to hear that.

“Your Brother Yang even said that I deserved it. He asked me if I still dared to eat without inhibitions.”

Mrs. Yang imitated Yang Feng’s tone indignantly and complained to Xiaoguo for a long time.

“Look at me. I’m so heavily pregnant and I only want to eat something. Isn’t it crazy that there are so many food restrictions? During my previous pregnancies, I also ate like this. They both turned out healthy and alive…”

It was said that pregnant women were more emotional. Xiaoguo was witnessing it for herself now.

Just now, Mrs. Yang was still complaining about Yang Feng. In the next moment, she started talking about other things.

She told Xiaoguo everything that had happened in the village during the two months that she was away. Afraid that she would miss out on anything, she told her everything in detail.

She was so precise to the point that Xiaoguo found out why Widow Li and Mrs. Liu were fighting and bickering. It was all because of a green onion. She even found out where this wild green onion was harvested from.

Noticing that Mrs. Yang was not drinking any water, Xiaoguo was worried about her feeling thirsty. So she poured some water for her and reminded her to drink it.

In the end, after giving a detailed account of what she had seen and heard, Mrs. Yang began to ask about Xiaoguo’s trip.

“Tell me… tell me…”

Mrs. Yang has been getting more irritable lately. Her habit of throwing tantrums has also become more frequent.

Although Xiaoguo wasn’t quite used to it, she still found her very cute. It turned out that pregnancy could really change a person’s personality.

“Okay, I will tell you!”

Xiaoguo tried her best to describe the scenery and the things she saw on the island.

Mrs. Yang had never stepped out of Yonghai County in her entire life. So even though Xiaoguo’s description was not very vivid, she could visualize the beautiful sceneries in her head.

“Wow… that sounds wonderful…”

Mrs. Yang held her chin and looked at Xiaoguo enviously. “The scenery at sea must be very beautiful.”

Xiaoguo nodded. She liked the sea too. Moreover, the two months she spent on the island was the most relaxing time she had had in recent years.

“Hey, Xiaoguo, what do you think they’re doing?”

Mrs. Yang suddenly tilted her head and looked outside. She spoke softly, as if she was afraid of startling someone.

Xiaoguo turned around in confusion and saw two tall cows rocking against each other.

Her first reaction was embarrassment. She immediately turned around. “Sister-in-law, you…”

“It’s no big deal.” Mrs. Yang said nonchalantly. She was still watching the cows with relish. “Your flower cows…”

“Dairy cows.”

“Oh… dairy cows.” Mrs. Yang immediately corrected herself and continued, “Your cows will probably see baby calves next year.”

“Stop looking.” Xiaoguo turned back to Mrs. Yang. “It’s hard to say. If there are any babies, it should be around next year.”

“Is that the same as the human gestation period?”

Mrs. Yang asked a question that Xiaoguo was also curious about.

Seeing that she was none the wiser, Mrs. Yang thought for a moment and continued, “I heard from my elders that the length of pregnancy for cattle and humans is about the same”

Hearing her words, Xiaoguo nodded in agreement. She had heard something like that. The gestation period for cows could last as long as nine months. It was indeed similar to ten months of pregnancy in humans.

Mrs. Yang told Xiaoguo some additional facts about cows. Although neither of them had in-depth knowledge about the species, it did not affect them trying to guess the answers to their questions.

Since both of them did not know the answers, they might as well make guesses together.

Xiaoguo was so embarrassed that she didn’t want to look at the cows. She was really glad that Zhuang Zhuang wasn’t at home at this moment.

If he were to witness it, combined with his inquisitive personality, he would definitely ask her in his childish voice, “What are the cows doing?”

Well, just thinking about it is embarrassing.
