Super Farming Tycoon-Chapter 39: Anticipation
Chapter 39: Anticipation
Gu Qingming's grandmother lived in a remote mountain village in the south.
It was ninety hours away from Sea City on the road.
If she took a plane, she could save some time. It was just that she needed to make transfers back and forth, and the journey was more troublesome.
Therefore, she decided to take a road trip.
The driver drove steadily and hence the journey was comfortable for Gu Qingming.
What had changed was that her appetite seemed to have grown.
Before she was pregnant, she could only eat half a small bowl, or at most a small bowl of rice. Now, she could eat two large bowls in one meal. She was simply stunned.
She even ate fruits and milk along the way.
How could her stomach hold so much food?
She remembered that she had not eaten so much in her previous life.
She had a good, slim figure. She didn't want to look bloated and ugly by having a baby.
However, if she didn't eat so much, her stomach would always rebel. She was also worried that something would happen to the child due to hunger.
Between her figure and child, she still chose her child.
She had checked online. Pregnant people did tend to get hungry easily. One person was eating for two.
Her mother had even gone to a store to buy a lot of nutritional supplements for pregnant women.
Therefore, along the way, Gu Qingming felt comfortable after eating and sleeping. She was like a pig. Even the bodyguards accompanying him could not bear to see their Miss living like a pig. But as bodyguards, they had no right to criticize their employer. After all, it was said that pregnant women ate a lot. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝓂
If Gu Qingming knew that her bodyguards were criticizing her in his heart, she would definitely retort fiercely, "When your wife and sister get pregnant, they'll look the same. See if you'll still call them pigs."
Of course, Gu Qingming did not only eat and sleep in the car. Most of the time, she was reading and listening to music. The sooner the fetus listened to music, the better it was for brain development.
Sometime later, the bodyguard knocked on the window.
Gu Qingming was sleepy. She opened her eyes with difficulty and rubbed them. "Not only can I eat, but I'm also getting better at sleeping."
A moment later she rolled down the window and asked, "What's wrong?"
The bodyguard said respectfully, "Miss, we're in Sand River Town. We're about half an hour from Stoneback Village."
He glanced at Gu Qingming's stomach and continued, "It's just that Old Zhang and I have explored this road. Although the road here is made of cement, many places have already collapsed. There are some potholes. The car might be a little bumpy. Miss, please take care of your safety."
The bodyguard was very dutiful. Miss Gu's body was different from before, and could not withstand the violent shaking and bumps. Therefore, they would first scout the road every day to prevent Miss Gu from being hurt.
Gu Qingming nodded and said, "Yes, I understand. Tell Master Li to drive slower."
"Yes, Miss!" the bodyguard replied.
She had been here before and knew the road conditions here. Her parents had donated to build this concrete road. But had been a while. The road was no longer in a good shape.
Gu Qingming could not help but touch her belly.
A group of men, women, and children were watching from the entrance of Stoneback Village.
An elderly woman with white hair at her temples looked worried. "It's so late," she said. "Why isn't Darling here yet? Is something wrong?"
Beside her, a young man in his twenties smiled and said, "Grandma, don't worry. What could have happened to Cousin? She must have been delayed on the road. As you know, Cousin's health is different today. They came in their own car. They'll definitely drive slower."
On the other side, a man in his forties or fifties nodded and said, "Mom, don't worry. Ming'er and the others drove a little slower, so they're a little late. Let's wait a little longer. They might arrive soon."
Then, he instructed the young man who had just spoken, "Xing'er, call Ming'er and ask where she is."
Communication was convenient now. It would be easy to find out where she was.
"Sure!" Shi Hang replied with a smile.
Then, he took out a black touchscreen phone and made a call.
"Where are you now, cousin? Oh, good, good, I see."
After Shi Hang hung up, Grandma Shi immediately asked anxiously, "Where is Ming'er now?"
Shi Hang smiled and said, "Grandma, Cousin said that she has passed the town of Sand River now and is on her way to our village. It's just that our road is not easy. They drove a little slower and will arrive later."
"Alright, I'm relieved." Grandma Shi smiled. Then, she instructed, "Xing'er, call your mother and second aunt again and tell them that they can start cooking. When Darling comes later, they can eat hot food."
Shi Hang said incredulously, "Grandma, it's June now. Everyone eats cold food. After eating hot food, we'll be covered in sweat."
Grandma Shi immediately said fiercely, "You brat, what do you know? Your cousin is pregnant. No matter if it's cold or hot, she needs to eat hot food. That's good for the adult's health and the fetus."
Shi Hang rubbed the back of his head and said innocently, "Oh, oh, I see."
"You silly boy, hurry up and call your mother!" Grandma Shi scolded jokingly.
She looked around the intersection and said, "I haven't seen Qingming in three years. I wonder how she looks now. Is she prettier?"
At the side, Gu Qingming's uncle, Shi Lichun, smiled and said, "It's said that girls change a lot when they grow up. Our Ming'er is already beautiful, so she will definitely have become even more gorgeous. "
Grandpa Shi nodded in agreement.
Shi Hangyu said, "Cousin was so cute and beautiful when she was young. She had a chubby face, a pair of round eyes, and was even wearing pink princess dresses. Everyone in our village envied me for having a beautiful and cute sister."
Thinking of his childhood, Shi Hang's eyes lit up.
His cousin was really beautiful and cute.
At that time, he wished he could hug her all the time, if not for the other brothers snatching her from him.
He wondered how his cousin looked now.
Shi Hang looked hopeful.
