Chapter 230 Launch
This time, Ji Yang had his own selfish motives and specially marked out a piece of land as his own private plot, where he could carry out outdoor activities and grow some food.
As more and more players join here, they also set some thresholds.
For example, you must have your own shelter, your own sewage pipes, and be self-sufficient.
Even with some conditions set, there is still a steady stream of players moving here.
If this continues, this place will be packed in less than ten days.
They had to close the channel and limit its opening time to half an hour each day, which slowed down the rate at which players joined.
A month passed, and the U-shaped plain was filled with players. The players also spontaneously built two bridges to connect the two sides of the river.
Domestic sewage from every household is discharged to the downstream through pipes, keeping the river water clear and clean and able to supply daily water normally.
After screening, most of these players still had surplus food, so there was no scramble for supplies and life was relatively peaceful.
But the idea of being prepared for danger in times of peace is almost ingrained in the Chinese people's bones.
Some diligent people have planted vegetables, fruits and melons on the narrow land in front of their doors, and some have even started breeding, raising fish, shrimps and bullfrogs in the river.
The players bartered items as if they had returned to ancient times, and their lives were pretty comfortable.
Su Lan has not had any morning sickness recently. She eats Mamaxiang and her face becomes rosy and her complexion is very good.
She took advantage of her free time to count the food supplies in the space, and calculated that they were enough for the whole family to eat for three to five years.
In addition, she also engages in soilless cultivation, growing some fruits, vegetables and rice to ensure a continuous supply.
She would also buy some food in the system mall, but most of the food on the system was pre-prepared food, which was not very healthy. Su Lan still stocked up several tons of bread, instant noodles, and vegetable meal packs in case of emergency.
The copy pad was never idle, working every night to copy some daily necessities.
So they basically don't have to worry about supplies.
What Ji Yang must do every day is to go out and observe the fog belt. At present, it seems to be relatively stable.
In his spare time, he would concentrate on accompanying Su Lan, telling stories to the baby in Su Lan's belly and doing prenatal education.
Su Jianguo doesn't paint much now. He has become obsessed with growing vegetables. When the sun is not too strong, he will weed and water the vegetable garden.
His vegetable garden is full of colorful flowers and green fruits. He always has a steady supply of tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants, and cabbages.
Su Yang, on the other hand, was carefree. He wandered around here and there every day. You could never see him at any time and no one knew what he was doing.
Xu Yian no longer has to feed the baby at night, and Yuna feels a lot more relaxed. Yingzi comes to help her from time to time, and now she is adept at taking care of the baby on her own.
Yuna found a place, placed Qin Ming's body, and hired someone to take care of him.
But Qin Ming's condition did not improve much. His muscles began to atrophy and he could only hold on for one day at a time.
Xiao La spends most of his time herding cattle. He also wades through the water to play on the other side of the river, and gets as dirty as a mud doll every day.
Yingzi didn't get angry. She brought him back in the afternoon, washed him, and continued the next day.
Among them, Qili is the busiest.
When he had nothing to do, he would dig underground and tinker with the underground space. This time, Ji Yang called on young laborers every day, and he paid them wages to help dig the ground.
There is strength in numbers. A fairly large space has been dug out underground, with dozens of exits in all directions.
The rest of the foggy world is completely surrounded by corrosive fog.
I don't know when it will be their turn.
I don’t know how long this U-shaped area can last.
The days passed quietly and orderly for half a year. Su Lan was in the late stage of pregnancy. Her belly was bulging and she had some difficulty in moving.
Especially at night, I couldn't sleep well no matter how I went to bed. If I lay flat, I was afraid that the baby would suffocate in my stomach. If I lay on my side, my waist would hurt so much that I couldn't bear it. Sometimes I couldn't sleep the whole night.
Ji Yang looked at her suffering and rubbed her waist. He felt so distressed that he swore several times that he would never give birth again and never let Su Lan suffer like this again.
Although it was useless for Su Lan to hear this, she felt warm in her heart.
Director Zhao came to give her a prenatal check-up on time and told her that she might go into labor in the next few days. Her family was extremely nervous.
Especially Yang Meifen, as long as Su Lan made the slightest movement, she would run up with a blanket and ask her if she had a stomachache or if her water broke.
The closer it got to the due date, the calmer Su Lan became.
We have to go through it anyway, so we might as well be calm about it.
That day, Su Lan was eating a cucumber and sitting in a rocking chair basking in the sun, feeling leisurely and comfortable.
Yingzi came over with a bag of children's clothes, "Lanlan, these are for the kids. I made some onesies and swaddles."
Su Lan took a small pink dress and put it on her belly, which only took up one-third of her belly. Her heart softened: "Yingzi, I really love you so much. It looks so beautiful!"
Yingzi sat next to her and the two chatted and laughed.
Yuna also came with Xu Yian. Yian is almost 7 months old now and likes to crawl on the ground.
Yuna simply made several onesies for him to wear as outerwear. When he had crawled enough, she took off the onesies and he was a clean, fragrant and soft baby again.
The three women had endless things to talk about when they were together. Most of the time, Yingzi and Yuna were talking, while Su Lan was listening and learning from them.
Yingzi also taught her how to breathe to relieve pain during contractions. Su Lan took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
After just a few rounds, Su Lan suddenly felt her stomach tighten and she had the urge to defecate.
"I'm going to the bathroom first." Yingzi supported Su Lan and walked slowly towards the bathroom.
"Oh, Yingzi, there's blood!" Su Lan came to the bathroom and saw bright red bloodstains.
Yingzi said cheerfully: "Oh, you are about to start, good news!"
Yang Meifen rushed over after hearing the news, and several people hurriedly helped Su Lan to sit down.
Su Lan's two arms were held up, and she felt a little funny. In fact, apart from spotting, she didn't feel anything else.
Ji Yang held Su Lan's hand, his palms were sweating, and he was even more nervous than Su Lan.
Su Yang immediately invited Director Zhao over and asked him to be on standby.
Director Zhao examined Su Lan and said with a relaxed expression, "Well, the cervix is in good condition, there shouldn't be any problem. Rest first and keep your strength. This is your first baby, so it won't be that fast. Don't be nervous."
Director Zhao's calm demeanor was like a shot of confidence for Su Lan, and she was no longer so nervous.
Not long after, Su Lan began to have regular stomach cramps. At first, it was bearable, and Su Lan could still talk and laugh with everyone.
Half an hour passed and the contractions intensified. Su Lan felt as if her stomach was being crushed and she wanted to bang her head against the wall.
Su Lan was bent like a shrimp, her face was pale, and beads of sweat were dripping down. Ji Yang was so anxious that he burst into tears.
He would be willing to do anything if it would help Su Lan share the burden.
Suddenly, an idea came to him. Since Chang Yiming could divert pain, he should be able to help Su Lan as well.
He almost flew and brought Chang Yiming to Su Lan.
Seeing Su Lan's distorted face, Chang Yiming was also shocked.
I've only heard that giving birth is painful for women, but I didn't expect it to be such a common scene.
"Yiming, please help my Lanlan." Ji Yang urged.
"Okay, I'll try." Chang Yiming quickly turned his face away, put his hand on Su Lan's arm, and his original face turned into another person.
Chang Yiming tried for a long time, but his talent didn't work!
He looked at Ji Yang apologetically: "Ji Yang, I'm sorry, I can't do it."
After saying this, he stepped out of the room and experienced more directly the greatness of being a mother.
Su Lan was in pain for two hours. Director Zhao examined her internally and said slowly, "Not bad, it's half a finger dilated. Let's go to the delivery room."
Several people put on sterile clothes and helped Su Lan into the delivery room.
As early as half a month ago, Su Lan asked Ji Yang to vacate a room, disinfect it, and use it specifically as a production room.
Ji Yang even cleared out a room in the basement.
Su Lan looked dazed. It was so painful, but he only opened half a finger. Was this a joke?
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside, and the noise was almost enough to blow the roof off.
Su Yang looked out the window and saw a crowd starting to push in, running and shouting.
He looked into the distance and was stunned for a moment.
"Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law!" Su Yang didn't care about anything else and knocked on the door of the delivery room in a hurry.
Looking at the painful Su Lan, he waved to Ji Yang, "Brother-in-law, come out quickly!"
