Chapter 50 - 050 Population (Sky Blue Blood Phoenix and He Shi Bi added more)
April is almost over, and the fragrant flowers of the human world have all faded, while peach blossoms start blooming in the mountain temples.
But in Northern Guanzhong, there are no peach blossoms in April, only bare branches, as the climate remains quite cold and the trees have just begun sprouting new buds.
Li Xianglu has finished sowing seeds; in just three days, sprouts one centimeter tall emerged, which greatly delighted her. Mr. Li credited the success entirely to his diligent conditioning of the garden.
In Guanzhong, during the non-busy farming season, people eat only two meals a day and skip dinner, but Mr. Li would not have it so; he insisted on eating something in the evening, even if just a bit of thin porridge, especially since Li Xianglu was at the age of growing and had previously suffered from malnutrition. Now was the time to nourish well, and Li Xianglu didn’t oppose this, acknowledging that her health indeed needed attention.
In the afternoon, Li Xianglu made noodles in soup; both grandfather and granddaughter each had a bowl, feeling extremely cozy and warm, planning to read some books together before sleeping. Just then, Li Dafu came in hurriedly, hesitating at the entrance, unsure whether to enter or not.
Mr. Li, however, welcomed him with a warm smile, and Li Dafu quickly greeted, "Uncle Huai, how have you been?"
Mr. Li smiled and nodded, "Not bad, still physically strong."
By this time, Li Xianglu had finished washing the dishes and removed her apron, coming out of the kitchen donned in a white Lenin Suit shirt and black trousers, looking very stylish, especially since her previously sallow and gaunt cheeks had fleshed out slightly, giving her a pristine, city-girl appearance.
Seeing Li Dafu in a daze, Li Xianglu quickly recovered and smiled, "Uncle Li is here."
