Chapter 180: If being a cat had no dreams, what's the difference from a salted fish?

Durian, this kind of fruit: those who like it super like it; those who don't, find each day as long as a year.

Since Pei Yan Ting took a liking to durian, the smell of durian has filled the whole house.

Even in the master bedroom, it's all "durian fragrance".

Lu Xiu Bai was banished to the second bedroom to sleep; on the surface he seemed reluctant, but turning away he was overjoyed.

To his senses, durian is just stinky!

But he dare not tell his wife, because she now likes this smell; he first wants to satisfy her preference.

Shen Man's side is fine; the various fruits sent by the elders have all been placed by Jiang Ye in the second bedroom.

Of course, durian is also in the second bedroom.

Their master bedroom is naturally fresh and clean, with no odd smells.

Shen Man thought that unless her sister-in-law's early pregnancy reaction passes, her brother's side will have to endure.

By comparison, the babies in her belly are like repaying a kindness.

They don't fuss or make noise, nor do they burden her, and they certainly haven't made her ugly.

But there is one downside: in her fetal dreams she is always frightened.

There's nothing to be done; for someone afraid of snakes, seeing a snake chase her really makes her burst into tears.

Crying and looking, she eventually grew accustomed to the two little snakes.

At least, when dreaming she can stiffen her body; it's not the kind of fright that makes her jump up and run.

I don't know if it's the father's prenatal education taking effect, but now when Shen Man dreams, those two little snakes turn into two little koi, which become little dragons when they circle her fingertips; dragons and koi are accepted more quickly than snakes, right?

Now Shen Man dreams without waking up in terror in the middle of the night, crying.

In the space, Tangyuan counts the lotus buds with her paws; there are more, two extra have appeared!

The mist in the space has also dissipated a lot, revealing the parts that were shrouded in mist.

The spiritual energy is much more abundant than before!

For a moment, Tangyuan fell into thought.

Is it that Lu Manman's mechanisms have been exhausted to benefit them, or is it that after the owner became pregnant, the little owners have gained a higher fortune?

No matter which possibility, the space is now recovering, and the direct beneficiary is this artifact spirit!

It no longer needs to be restrained; it must stay by the owner's side, relying on contact, to be able to enter and exit the space.

Now, as long as it is within a hundred kilometers, it can enter and exit the space at any time!

With the space's recovery, its range of activity will keep getting longer!

When danger arises then, it can enter the space at any time, and the owner can rest a little easier.

It can support itself, go out to hunt for the owner, and feed the owner!

Yes, Tangyuan has always been a cat with dreams.

If being a cat had no dreams, what would be the difference from a salted fish?

Roar roar roar, the Meow Meow Great King is about to set forth......

In the dead of night, a violent storm descended without warning.

Fortunately, those already accustomed to the unpredictable rain on the Sea Island take it as normal.

Those who woke up went to get their own pots, bowls, and buckets to come out and catch water.

Those who had been sound asleep woke up and sighed in regret, having wasted the chance to store rainwater.

As for Shen Man's household, everything's fine; they have a well at home, and water has never been in short supply.

The next day, the rain eased a little, but the curtain of water from the eaves continued to patter down.

Tangyuan gazed mournfully at the sky; today there's no way to sunbathe.

The meow-meow, unhappy, angrily ate two pieces of chicken cake and six small dried fish!

When Jiang Ye fed Tangyuan, he clearly felt the little guy had grown in size; the increased appetite is the best proof.

Considering the little one's status in his wife's heart, he loved the house and its crow, and made a cat climbing frame out of hemp rope.

Moreover, he used hemp rope to tie several small sticks to the branches, so that whenever Tangyuan wants to eat dried fish, she can do so at any time.

Having received the gift, Tangyuan can't put it down, jumping up and down on the cat climbing frame.

It likes the little cat nest on the frame best; the straw there has a fresh scent after being sun‑bathed, and it loves it tremendously!

"Meow."

It loves the big boss so much; it really likes the cat climbing frame, to an extreme degree!

Jiang Ye ruffled the little guy's head, soft and fluffy; no wonder his wife likes to hold Tangyuan while playing on the rocking chair.

Shen Man walked out of the house and saw Tangyuan clinging to her husband in a coquettish way in the corner of the hall; taking a closer look, good grief, it turned out the man had made the cat climbing frame.

Seeing how much Tangyuan likes it, you know just how deeply this big toy has entered a cat's heart.

Jiang Ye saw his wife awake, affectionately brushed her nose, and asked naturally:

"Awake, what would you like for breakfast?"

"I want to have preserved‑egg and lean‑meat porridge, and fried spring rolls."

Shen Man lately doesn't want to drink sweet, cloying porridge in the morning; she wants something with a bit of flavor.

Jiang Ye kept it in mind and had already prepared the ingredients.

As for the preserved‑egg and lean‑meat porridge, its texture is quite rich.

"Okay, I'll go cook the porridge and fry the spring rolls.

You wash up first; the mouthwash is ready, on the table in the hallway. It's raining outside, so don't go out alone.

Jiang Ye nodded; this isn't difficult, tinkering for half an hour himself will about do it.

Shen Man poked her head out and took a glance at the scene of the small courtyard.

The brick‑paved footpath is fine; the unpaved ground has already turned into small puddles, a sea of mud.

The rain is falling, but at least we don't have to water the garden's melons, fruits, and vegetables.

The downside is that travel is inconvenient; I'm worried about slippery roads, getting soaked, and then catching a cold and fever.

A pregnant woman must not take medicine.

If she takes medicine, the reaction could be severe and harmful to the fetus.

"Alright, I'll go back to the house and put on a jacket first."

Shen Man is now very consciously protecting herself; even though she has Spiritual Liquid as support, she proceeds as cautiously as a ship that sails for ten thousand years.

Jiang Ye nods appreciatively; since his daughter‑in‑law became pregnant, he has become much more mature.

He even subconsciously feels the need to wear a jacket; in his heart he has a déjà vu of an old father watching his daughter grow up.

Wait, stop, that's not right—my thoughts went off track!

Start over!

In the neighboring courtyard, Lu Xiu Bai pinches his nose while cooking durian porridge for his daughter‑in‑law.

Yes, you heard and read that right—it's durian porridge!

Why does his daughter‑in‑law's palate keep getting stranger?

On such a heavy rainy day, he's also too embarrassed to go next door to borrow his sister's husband's loving breakfast for his sister.

So he has to do it himself; he shouldn't have been nosy and asked his daughter‑in‑law what she wanted to eat!

Besides durian porridge, there's also durian bread.

He crushes fresh durian into a paste and spreads it inside the bread that his sister made as a filling…

The heavens and the earth are vast, but the pregnant woman is the greatest!

Lu Xiu Bai watches his daughter‑in‑law eat with relish; his inner satisfaction exceeds his repulsion to the odor.

Aba Aba, he has already decided that once the baby is born, the first thing will be to spank the child's butt!

The boy's nickname will be "Stinky," and his formal name will be Lu Aiguo.

The girl's nickname will be "Lian Lian," and her formal name will be Lu Ailian.

Saving Grandpa and the others the endless debate over what to call them, they'll just follow this.

Pei Yan Ting ignores her husband's occasional goofy grin and occasional clenched‑tooth scowl, treating it as if he's having a fit.

After finishing breakfast, she lets her husband take her to the hospital.

These days, it's not common to take leave and stay home to give birth as soon as one becomes pregnant; people usually only pause work shortly before the due date…
