Transmigration: Getting Rich with My Space and Supplies-Chapter 203 - 194 Update 1

After Madam Rong and the others had left, she finally spoke, "He seemed a bit unhappy when he left just now."

Rong Yan raised an eyebrow, completely unconcerned, "What does it matter if he’s happy or not? Who owes him anything?"

Madam Rong shot her daughter a look, "At the end of the day, he’s still the team leader of this village. What if he gives Qin a hard time? If the work assigned to him is heavier or worse, wouldn’t that make Qin even more tired?"

"Mom, you don’t need to worry about that. Qin Ye has always been doing the worst jobs. How can it get any worse?"

However, the past was the past, and now... she felt it was time for a change. They couldn’t keep picking on one person just like that!

Her man... only she could bully him, no one else—no way.

Hearing her daughter’s words, Madam Rong’s eyes widened in shock, "What did you say? Our Qin Yi has always been doing the heaviest work?"

Rong Yan nodded, "The people in this village have always been very hostile to the three siblings, thinking they are... bad omens, so they’ve been ostracized. They always got assigned the jobs that nobody else wanted to do. For instance, the most remote and barren lands that are the hardest to cultivate have always been his responsibility."

"...Ah, that’s just too much." This broke Madam Rong’s heart.

Qin was only twenty-one now, right? How old had he been in the previous years?

You can’t bully someone to this extent, right?

Rong Yan felt these people were really excessive, but... that’s just how this era was. The three siblings, with no one to protect them... If it hadn’t been for Qin Ye’s own strength, the arduous farm work would probably have crushed him by now.

Living... was not easy.

Madam Rong felt she had to be even nicer to her son-in-law, who was just too pitiful.

Good thing he had a resilient character.

"Let’s stew a chicken tonight!"

Rong Yan: ...?

Mom, that’s quite a leap in topic.

"What’s the occasion today? Why stew a chicken all of a sudden?" Just yesterday, we were talking about being more frugal!

About saving money to pay off debts, and now it’s back to luxury.

Madam Rong gave her unfazed daughter a look, "If I want to stew a chicken, I will."

Rong Yan: ...

"Tomorrow, I’ll go to town and buy you a few more chicks to raise."

There used to be a limit on how many chickens each household could keep, but starting from last year, the village had lifted the restriction. Now, they didn’t care how many you raised.

As long as you could afford to keep them.

Madam Rong immediately said, "No need, I’ve already arranged with someone. I’ll barter for some chicks in the village; should take another three or four days, I guess!"

Rong Yan couldn’t help but admire her mother’s social prowess.

She had already mixed into the village chicken-bartering business.

"By the way, it seems the village is going to start assigning pigs to each household. Should we take one home?"

She wanted to raise one, but she also considered that they wouldn’t stay here for long. Once the college entrance exam was over, the whole family was sure to leave.

The thought of raising pigs made Rong Yan’s scalp tingle.

"We better skip that, our house has no place for pigs, and if we took one, we’d need to build a pen. Let’s not bother."

"All right then," Madam Rong said, feeling a slight pang of regret.

But there was no helping it.

Since they couldn’t keep the pig, they might as well raise more chicks.

Rong Yan didn’t care for these matters, and seeing that the rain was getting lighter, she prepared to go outside and check.

Just then, a knock sounded from outside.

"Who could it be at this hour?"

Madam Rong muttered, getting ready to open the door.

But Rong Yan was one step ahead, "Mom, I’ll go open the door."

She walked out with a black umbrella in hand.

Upon opening the door, she found the team leader who had returned.

"Team leader, is there something else?"

Captain Qin didn’t beat around the bush. "Qin Ye’s Wife, when the police arrive later, go and notify my house immediately. There’s some significant news to report."

Rong Yan didn’t ask what the significant news was; she just nodded, "Okay, I got it."

"That’s settled then, I’m leaving." Captain Qin turned around and left.

Rong Yan watched his retreating figure, pondered a moment... she couldn’t figure it out, so she closed the door again.

"Who was it?" Madam Rong asked as soon as she came back.

"It was the team leader. It seems there’s some clue. When the police arrive later, he said to have them go straight to him."

Hearing this, Madam Rong didn’t ask any further questions.

The rain kept falling, but fortunately, it finally stopped in the afternoon.

And Qin Ye hadn’t come back for lunch at noon.

He and the police only came down from the mountain at three in the afternoon.

When Rong Yan saw the police, she immediately informed them about the important news from Captain Qin’s side.

The lead police officer, upon hearing this, immediately took two people and went towards Captain Qin’s place.

Rong Yan looked at Qin Ye, who was soaked through. "You should go take a shower and change clothes first!"

Qin Ye nodded, "Okay."

Seeing this, Madam Rong hurried to the kitchen to start making something to eat...

After Qin Ye had taken a shower, Madam Rong had just finished cooking the noodles.

She brought them out.

"Qin, eat the noodles first."

Qin Ye saw it was a big bowl with two eggs lying on top.

"Mom, you don’t have to add eggs next time."

"Why not? You’re the one doing the most work in the family; you need to nourish yourself. Besides, it’s better for everyone if you’re healthy."

And then there was the matter of having children.

These two had been married for a while now, right?

Why was there still no sign of a baby?

Qin Ye wanted to say he was perfectly healthy and didn’t need supplements, but seeing his mother-in-law seemed absent-minded like she was pondering something, he decided not to say more.

Madam Rong always wanted to have things clear in her mind.

However, such things were really difficult to ask her son-in-law, so she decided to go find her daughter instead.

She came out to the yard and saw her daughter, and she beckoned, "Yanyan, come here a second."

Rong Yan walked over. "Mom, what’s up?"

Madam Rong pulled her into a corner and then, after looking around, she asked in a hushed voice, "Yanyan, you’ve been married for so long, how come you haven’t gotten pregnant yet?"

This really shouldn’t be happening!

To say they hadn’t consummated the marriage... she wouldn’t believe it.

Her daughter was so beautiful. If her son-in-law could resist her, then... that would be a serious problem.

As soon as Rong Yan heard the word "children," her scalp began to tingle.

"Mom, we don’t plan on having children for the time being, probably after I graduate from university!"

She would be around twenty-four or five when she had children, right?

Right now... she felt she wasn’t ready to be a mother.

Hearing this, Madam Rong let out a sigh of relief.

"I thought there was something wrong with one of you two. It’s fine if you’ve agreed on having kids after graduation. It doesn’t matter if you start early; I’m here for everything. I have nothing better to do, and I can help you with the child."

On hearing the first part of her mother’s words, Rong Yan’s mouth twitched.

As for what her mother said after that, she just said, "...let nature take its course."

After all, contraception can sometimes fail, and if it happens, they will have the child.

If not, then it’ll probably be later... when she’s more prepared or can create better living conditions for the child before giving birth. It wouldn’t be too late by then; after all, they were still very young.
