Chapter 511 So Far Away

When Xiao Lingyu saved Big Light, Big Light looked a little tired due to her old age. Her fur was sparse, and it was easy for her to shed hair.

After Xiao Lingyu bought her, she was fed with spring water every day. She now looked a lot more energetic. Although her fur was still sparse, at least, she didn’t shed them often anymore.

However, Big Light was still an aged cow. Even with the spring water, she could only maintain her energy.

Similarly, Grandma Xiao and Mother Xiao drank the spring water daily too. They looked younger than before, but their actual age didn’t change.

Xiao Lingyu experimented on Big Light because Big Light was not eye-catching. No one would pay attention to an old cow. Aging backward was too shocking. She had to conduct her experiment carefully.

Soon after the feast, Xiao Lingyu touched Big Light’s head and could feel that Big Light’s body was heating up. Xiao Lingyu asked, “Big Light, how do you feel? Does it hurt?”

Big Light mooed and then shook her head twice. It didn’t hurt. However, she did feel rather hot and itchy. However, she couldn’t communicate that to Xiao Lingyu.

Xiao Lingyu studied Big Light carefully, especially her body temperature. As the temperature rose, Big Light’s fur coat became firmer and harder. Then, Big Light’s skin which was covered in black spots suddenly became softer and more supple. Xiao Lingyu was shocked.

It really had a miraculous effect!

If she shared this with her family… No, that would be too eye-catching. It would attract tragedy.

Xiao Lingyu sighed and said, “Forget it. I’ll leave this on the backburner. For now, I need to be careful what I give Xiao Ling to eat.”

The change in Big Light was not quick. Xiao Lingyu was too busy and couldn’t observe her at all times. Thankfully, she had installed a monitor in the cow pen. She could monitor Big Light and observe every detail remotely.

“Xiao Ling, how long will this change take?” Xiao Lingyu thought for a while and asked Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling thought for a moment and said, “Based on the time in the outside world, Big Light’s transformation process will probably take three months.”

“Three months?!” Xiao Lingyu was obviously a little surprised.

She thought that it would take one or two days like the spring water.

She did not expect that it would take three months.

Xiao Ling explained, “This is reverse growing. Parts of the body have to reorganize their structures, so this requires time.” Xiao Ling hesitated for a moment before saying, “Master, this is a heaven-defying thing. According to Heavenly Dao, when you gain something, you’ll lose something too.”

Xiao Lingyu frowned and asked in confusion, “What do you mean?”

Xiao Ling said, “Those who use this method to reverse aging will be punished by the heavens!”

Xiao Lingyu’s eyes suddenly widened. She looked at Big Light and said angrily, “Xiao Ling, why didn’t you say so earlier? What will happen to Big Light?”

Even though Big Light and Little Light were two cattle, the Xiao Family treated them like family. Xiao Lingyu was worried and mad that Big Light would be punished because of what she did.

Xiao Ling clearly felt Xiao Lingyu’s anger. His fair and tender face revealed a slight grievance as he said, “But Master, I’m talking about humans. Big Light is a cow.”

Xiao Lingyu was stunned. “What do you mean by that?” Xiao Lingyu frowned.

Xiao Ling explained, “Big Light is a cow. She’s an animal. Even if her age regresses, she’s still a cow. Unless she turns into a spirit, she will not suffer any heavenly punishment. The Heavenly Dao will not punish common animals and plants.”

Xiao Lingyu touched her forehead. Whenever she listened to Xiao Ling, it was like she was listening to a fairy tale or fantasy wuxia story.

“Stop!” Xiao Lingyu stopped Xiao Ling. She asked, “Xiao Ling, this is Earth, not some wuxia world. What is the Heavenly Dao?”

Xiao Ling disagreed, “Master, the Heavenly Dao governs all worlds, including this one.”

Xiao Lingyu, “…” Xiao Lingyu shrugged, “Everything you says sounds so fantastical to me. I don’t think I need to mind them.” Xiao Ling, “…” How is it fantastical? It’s happening right before your eyes! Xiao Ling was helpless that he encountered such a monster. He would have to remind her when she was about to violate the Heavenly Dao.

When Xiao Lingyu returned home, she saw the freshly brewed lees, goji berries, red dates, and eggs.

Mother Xiao laughed sinisterly and said, “Come on. I’ll be here to watch you finish it this time.” Actually, Mother Xiao was worried about her daughter because she kept losing weight. After what happened to Gong Tianhao, Xiao Lingyu jumped right back to work without even taking a break. She looked so much more haggard.

Many times, Mother Xiao noticed that her daughter didn’t even eat. However, for Xiao Tong’s sake, she kept forcing her to eat. Xiao Tong relied on his mother for milk.

Fortunately, the child was raised well. He was fair and fat, and he loved to laugh. Many people liked him.

To supply Xiao Lingyu with nutrition, Mother Xiao cooked many different things. However, she did not expect her daughter to throw away the food behind her back.

“Hurry up and eat!” Mother Xiao saw her daughter’s eyes darting around.

Xiao Lingyu was cornered. She could only finish the bowl under the supervision of Mother Xiao.

After eating, she wiped her mouth and said to her mother, “Mom, don’t cook these for me in the future. Just make something light!”

Her mother gave her a look and said, “If you don’t eat these things, how are you going to produce the milk? I’m not doing this for you, but for the child.”

Xiao Lingyu, “…” did she have such a low position in her mother’s heart?

Xiao Lingyu said, “Mom, I’m going to City Z today to take a look at the shop!”

When Mother Xiao heard that, she immediately disagreed. “Are you going to bring Xiao Tong with you?”

Xiao Lingyu shook her head. “The weather is so gloomy and cold. It’s better not to take him with me.”

Mother Xiao didn’t think Xiao Lingyu should go out. “Yu ‘Er, a new mother shouldn’t go out within 120 days of her birth. It’s been only three months since you gave birth to Xiao Tong. You need to be careful. Illness can creep in during this time easily.”

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Mom, don’t worry. I know what I’m doing. I know my own body well. I won’t have any problems. Mom, have you forgotten the effects of the spring water? The spiritual spring water improves the quality of the body and eliminates all illnesses. I’ll be fine.”

Mother Xiao sighed lightly and did not say anything. She only said earnestly, “Yu ‘Er, don’t force yourself too hard, understand?”

Xiao Lingyu was stunned for a moment, and then her nose felt a little sour.

Mother Xiao always knew what her daughter was thinking.

Her heart ached for her daughter, but she could not help her.

She could only feel sorry for her daughter and help her take care of the child.

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Mom, I know!”

“I won’t take the child with me. If the baby is hungry, feed him the formula. Xiao Tong is very sensible. He won’t make a fuss.”

Xiao Lingyu had also discovered that the child was different from other babies.

He seemed to be very understanding and would make some strange expressions, such as rolling his eyes and showing disdain. He wouldn’t make a fuss when he was told not to. In short, he was a very intelligent and sensible baby.

Many times, Xiao Lingyu wondered if this baby had been reincarnated from Xiao Tong in her previous life.

If that were really the case, that would be great. She could directly make up to him. Xiao Lingyu did ask Xiao Ling about that, but the answer she got was ambiguous.

However, to Xiao Lingyu, regardless of whether the baby was a child from her previous life or not, she would love him and let him feel the warmth of a mother’s love. She would not ignore him as she did in her previous life.

The company had been registered, but the company location had yet to be established.

However, its many businesses had already started to develop.

Xiao Lingyu planned to build the company headquarters in Taoyuan Village directly.

Xiao Lingyu had someone contact the engineering team. After the foundation was planned, she also had a professional designer design the blueprint.

At present, the company’s business was still very singular. They sold vegetables.

Before Xiao Lingyu gave birth, there was a batch of new vegetables that were being harvested.

This batch of vegetables could not be bought anywhere other than the shops in Xing Yin County, the Gu family hotel, the Junhao Hotel in City Z, and the Zeng’s vegetable shop.

Xiao Lingyu wanted to go to City Z, so he asked Zeng Yaozu to come along.

Zeng Yaozu was very good at business. Sometimes, he could provide a unique vision.

In the car, Zeng Yaozu asked, “Sister, if I remember correctly, your child is still breastfeeding, right? Aren’t you afraid that your child will go hungry and cry?”

Xiao Lingyu drove the car and said, “My baby is very well-behaved. If he is hungry, he won’t cry. He can take formula too.”

Zeng Yaozu nodded and said, “Oh, I see. Then he can be weaned already.”

Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, “No, the baby is still too young to be weaned. No matter how good the milk powder is, it’s not as good as breast milk. I want to feed him until he’s at least 1.”

Zeng Yaozu nodded and said, “Yes, many people breastfeed until they’re two years old. I heard that according to science, it’s best to breastfeed until they’re two years old.”

Xiao Lingyu chuckled. “How is your progress with Xinxin? When are you two getting married or engaged?”

Zeng Yaozu revealed a happy smile when he mentioned Xiao Xinxin, but soon he said helplessly, “Originally, we planned to get married as soon as possible. After all, I am not getting any younger. But Xinxin said that she wanted to study business management. If she got married, she would have to look after her family, and she wouldn’t have time for her studies. So, she doesn’t want to get married so soon.”

Xiao Lingyu frowned. “Even if she gets married, she can continue to study, right?”

“That’s what I told her,” Zeng Yaozid helplessly, “But Xinxin said things will change after marriage. Before marriage, the time is hers alone. She can arrange everything

“But it changes after marriage. One has to consider the family then. After all, one has to fulfill the responsibility of being a wife and daughter-in-law.”

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Xinxin is right. I didn’t expect her to become so much more thoughtful and ambitious.” She paused and said, “But don’t worry. Xinxin knows what she’s doing. One day, when she wants to get married, she will naturally get married.”

Zeng Yaozu forced a smile and said, “I don’t know if that day will ever come.”

If Xiao Xinxin had the heart to marry him, he would wait for her forever. However, he was afraid that as Xinxin became more capable, more men would come to woo her. Then, what would he do then? If she decided she deserved a better man, what could he do?

Should he let her go or force Xiao Xinxin to marry him?

Xiao Lingyu read Zeng Yaozu’s thoughts and comforted him with a smile, “Yaozu, you are an outstanding man, and you are getting better at your job. Don’t worry, Xinxin is not a girl who changes her heart easily unless you break her heart.”

Zeng Yaozu shook his head. “How would I ever do that to her?”

“That’s right.” Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “I believe that you are the best choice for Xinxin and the person who loves her the most.”
