Chapter 61: Chapter 61: Lin Chunju’s Worries

    If one carefully measured, last time’s excessive use of Spiritual Energy wasn’t entirely without benefits.

    Yue Qingqing discovered that her meridians seemed to have widened slightly, and although she hadn’t advanced in level, the Spiritual Energy she could mobilize after recovery was more abundant than before.

    Indeed, in moments of crisis, one often realizes their potential, which is why many cultivators from her previous life always went out to experience the world, walking on the edge of life and death.

    Time quietly slipped away when no one was paying attention, and in the blink of an eye, several months had passed.

    Feeling her own weakness, Yue Qingqing practiced with exceptional diligence.

    She always tried her best, using pouting, acting cute, and her gaze, to convince the Yue Family to take her outside to better sense the Spiritual Energy of heaven and earth.

    ...

    Yue Jiannan originally didn’t dare to take her to the fish pond again, but Lin Chunju forcefully persuaded him to take her out a few times.

    As Lin Chunju put it, “If you choke on food once, will you never eat again? Where’s the logic in that?”

    Yue Jiannan had no choice but to obediently take Yue Qingqing out, but he didn’t dare leave her side for even a step.

    Yue Jiandong and Yue Jianxi were at their wits’ end with Yue Qingqing but occasionally took her to the fields.

    She would sit quietly on the cart without crying or fussing, like an old monk in meditation.

    This behavior astonished many people, and they marveled that the Yue girl was not ordinary.

    Beyond sensing Spiritual Energy, Yue Qingqing also heard many local gossips.

    Every family had its own joys and sorrows, but for the Yue Family, time seemed to pass even faster.

    The two young children at home learned to walk and gradually began to speak some simple words.

    Yue Qingqing, fearing exposing herself, followed Yue Xiaohu’s lead completely.

    When Yue Xiaohu progressed to shaky but upright walking, Yue Qingqing tentatively took her first steps.

    After Yue Xiaohu finally mumbled the words “dad” and “mom,” Yue Qingqing naturally followed suit.

    When Zhang Ying heard her daughter’s voice, she held her and cried for a while.

    For this poor woman, that call of “mom” was probably the most moving sound in the world.

    Walking and talking greatly facilitated Yue Qingqing, allowing her to further expand her range of activity.

    From then on, she needed no adult to carry her, as she could walk with her little short legs to the outer courtyard and observe the thin yet real swirl of Spiritual Energy in the air.

    The children in the family grew day by day, but this touched upon another concern for Lin Chunju.

    The date of Yue Xiaofang’s delivery was drawing nearer!

    In recent times, Yue Xiaofang had returned a few times, and each time Ma Jinbao was with her, appearing much more compliant and careful with the Yue Family.

    But Lin Chunju didn’t let her guard down in the slightest.

    Finally, as the days neared Yue Xiaofang’s expected delivery date, Lin Chunju would lean against the doorway every morning, waiting for news from Jinshan Village.

    But no word came from Ma Jinbao’s family...
