However, he helped make smoked and cured meat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the evening, everyone sat down together for a meal. It was all leftover scraps, but they were truly delicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, the four families came over early again. The Zhou Family was a big family, and the old couple had many friends. So they set up eleven tables, with one extra just in case there weren’t enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yanli was getting married from the Zhang Family. She wore a dress made by Yanping, which was the most popular green dress at the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to the care she received all winter, Yanli now had a fair complexion and looked quite pretty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Yongbing came to pick up the bride on a bicycle. The Zhang Family didn’t make things difficult, and there was a considerable dowry. Zhang Fusheng and Zhang Caixia were the ones to send the dowry along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at this dowry, who could look down on a wife from the countryside?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the Zhou Family’s place, it was Mr. Zhou’s factory manager who presided over the wedding ceremony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The current wedding ceremonies were much the same. They swore an oath in front of the leader’s portrait and recited a passage of quotations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was the completion of the ceremony. No one caused a scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Zhou was all smiles, holding Yanli’s hand and introducing her to family and friends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On such a day, no one would cause trouble. So everyone was full of praise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their hearts, they were all quite satisfied with Yanli, and envied Zhou Yongbing for finding such a wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But everyone knew that this young bride had brought back a lot of grain, as well as meat and vegetables.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Zhou talked to everyone about how the sewing machine was part of her daughter-in-law’s dowry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because wine was hard to come by, they just went through the motions. But everyone was happy to come and eat such a hearty feast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The courtyard was lively and bustling. The ten tables were cleaned out completely. Everyone was very satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t until two in the afternoon that only the Zhou Family members were left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did they have a chance to eat, luckily saving one table for themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After eating, they went to return the neighbors’ tables and chairs, each house would receive some peanuts, sunflower seeds, and two pieces of candy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was really too little candy to go around, but there was no way around it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were busy until five, and finally everything was cleaned up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The day was truly exhausting. Yanli felt it was more tiring than working a full day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Yongbing brought her hot water for foot soaking, which made her feel a lot better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You should soak your feet too, it feels so much better.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, you get on the kang bed, I’ll do it myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve rested enough now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The couple’s wedding night was exceptionally blissful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time flowed like water, and a month passed, now it was already May.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yanli lived a disciplined life every day. Mrs. Zhou was very attentive, noticing that her daughter-in-law’s appetite had been particularly good for more than half a month. Watching her eat made others also eat a few more bites.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, the elderly had already suspected pregnancy. But she felt the time was a bit short, thinking it was better to wait a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, her son was traveling during this period, so she wasn’t worried about the young couple being clueless.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Zhou Yongbing returned, Mrs. Zhou told the couple about her suspicion. \"Xiao Li, let’s go to the hospital tomorrow to have a look. If it turns out you’re pregnant, that’s great. If not, it’s okay, you both are still young.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing her mother-in-law’s words, Yanli also calculated the dates in her mind. She had missed her period twice. She guessed she was pregnant. She touched her belly in a daze. Pregnant, of course, that’s normal, isn’t it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Yongbing was still in a daze besides her. He looked at his wife lost in thought on one side, while his mother smiled on the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he looked again before finally reacting after a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Excitedly, he grasped his wife’s hand, \"Xiao Li, thank you for your hard work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yanli felt a little sweetness in her heart hearing Yongbing’s words. He thought of her hard work first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night, Yongbing just held his wife without making any moves. The whole family was eagerly anticipating the child’s arrival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, the couple went to the hospital and met with Doctor Xing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old doctor felt their pulse, \"Congratulations to both of you, both mother and child are well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yanli’s health was really good, she wasn’t like ordinary people, as she never hesitated to indulge herself in food because of Su Yuanyuan’s influence. So her health was really excellent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Yongbing asked about many precautions to take. When the couple left the hospital, Zhou Yongbing couldn’t stop smiling, carefully staying close to his wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don’t have to be like this, I’m fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I feel something’s wrong if I don’t.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yanli rolled her eyes, thinking to herself, when you’re not around, don’t I do everything just the same?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go to my elder sister’s house.\" Yanli now eagerly wanted to let her sister know the good news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Yongbing certainly had no objections. As long as his wife was happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the news, Yanping’s eyes turned red. How could she not be happy? This was the youngest sister, now she was married and would soon have a child too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yanping was truly a worthy eldest sister. She always thought of taking care of her sisters like it was her own responsibility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two sisters chatted, and Yanping, having borne two children, shared her feelings and experiences with her sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Elder sister, I really have no reactions, besides, I don’t do anything now, what discomfort could I have?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yongbing sat on the side grinning foolishly. His silly expression made Yanping satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Zhang also laughed heartily. \"Really, just live normally, Xiao Li is healthy, and a healthy child will be born in the future.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young couple stayed for lunch, and Yanli ate three big steamed buns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching her, Yanping and Mrs. Zhang couldn’t stop laughing. A good appetite bodes well, eating a lot is a good thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the meal, Yanli started feeling drowsy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why not just stay here and sleep?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll go home to sleep, so I can write a letter to Yuanyuan when I wake up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, Su Yuanyuan had already received Yanli’s letter long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You see, the girl is really impatient. She’s getting married so soon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhou Yongbing? That truck driver?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, a shy, kind young man.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It really is fate, the two of them together are quite good.\" Tan Shaoting also realized who Zhou Yongbing was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three children were eating by themselves, listening to their mother’s and father’s conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yuanyuan, it’ll probably be another half year, we’ll be able to leave here by the end of the year.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So soon?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tan Shaoting laughed, \"What? You don’t want to leave here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, it’s just that your actions are quite intriguing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s so intriguing about it? We’re actually the last to leave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Taking the train?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, taking the train, by then it won’t be uncomfortable to travel by train.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, just thinking about taking the train in summer gives me a headache.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1255,"2026-06-06T00:15:23.044Z",1,"novelbin.me","44beba4387a95fb1c29020a6eae3c1fe567a686f837a8843bdea43138ec27929","reborn-with-a-space-building-a-fortune-amidst-fa-chapter-409","reborn-with-a-space-building-a-fortune-amidst-fa-chapter-407",1428,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-with-a-space-building-a-fortune-amidst-fa-cover.jpg"]
