After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies
Chapter 193: A Decision has been made
Chapter 193
Pei Jing wasn't the only one concerned about this; Zhi Xia, though she didn't say it out loud, had also been contemplating the same question.
The difference between having five children and having two children was significant, and she couldn't possibly take care of them all by herself.
The best solution would be to return to Jincheng.
The due date should be at the end of next January, but there was a high possibility that the triplets would be born prematurely, so they needed to be prepared after the New Year.
The weather this year was still cold, but the snowfall wasn't as heavy as in previous years, when the snow would block the doors for half a month, preventing anyone from going out.
Pei Jing wasn't at home, and she managed to coax the two children into taking a nap.
After closing the door, she entered the space.
She opened the interdimensional transaction device and found her friend, the wandering Egg.
He was the friend she had gained as a reward during the previous encounter with that black system. Apart from the tigress from the Beast World, there was also the wandering Egg, a human from the interstellar realm, and another person named Cui Cui, who lived in a time similar to hers.
Cui Cui, the rich woman from that era, asked, "Egg, do you have anything that can be used to save lives in critical moments?"
Because there were many things in the interstellar realm that were too destructive and unsuitable for this era, their interactions mostly involved Egg purchasing supplies from her.
The wandering Egg clearly had many trading friends, and although he had a lot of star coins, he wasn't generous and often tried to haggle for lower prices.
But even so, Zhi Xia still made a small profit. After all, she had the space, and farming and breeding didn't require much manpower or resources.
She no longer needed to be as frugal as before, even to the point of not daring to use electricity in the space to save star coins.
The wandering Egg replied, "There are too many items. You can look for them yourself in my display cabinet."
Upon receiving his response, Zhi Xia began searching on her own.
There were too many items, most of which Zhi Xia couldn't afford to buy, so the pictures appeared dim. Only the brightly colored ones were available for her to choose from.
Excluding those items she couldn't purchase, of course, many of which she couldn't afford even if she spent all her star coins, what remained were the things she could use, and their prices were slightly lower.
Body-enhancing agents, low-level ones suitable for developing human body functions. The specific effects depended on the individual's physical qualities and development level. The usage method was to consume it directly, priced at one thousand star coins.
This was much more valuable than those two child-rearing robots, but without hesitation, Zhi Xia still chose to buy it.
Pei Jing would probably encounter some trouble in the next two years. Although it wouldn't be life-threatening, he would have to leave the military and find a new career.
With Zhi Xia in this world, she clearly understood how much he loved the military. If possible, she wanted to help him change his predetermined fate and allow him to continue his development in the military.
In the past, she had always worried too much and as a result, became timid and indecisive. However, the arrival of the triplets was too unexpected, and she had made up her mind to return to Jincheng.
Once she left, she didn't know when she would be able to come back.
Zhi Xia had already regarded Pei Jing as the love of her life, so she naturally wanted to leave something to protect him. She couldn't just sit idly by, knowing that the father of her children was in danger.
Today, Zhi Xia fed the two children early and let them play in the house by themselves.
When Pei Jing returned, he could only hear the sound of the children talking in the room. He took a glance inside, spent some time playing with the children, and then came out to have a meal.
After finishing their meal, when Pei Jing returned to the room after tidying up the kitchen, Zhi Xia had already washed and changed the two children into their pajamas, allowing them to sleep on their own in the room when it was time.
"What's going on today?" Zhi Xia seemed to be in a hurry, doing everything exceptionally fast.
"There's something." Zhi Xia approached him and took his hand, leading him into the room.
Opening the drawer, she took out a bottle of low-level body-enhancing elixir and handed it to him. "Pei Jing, this is for you. Drinking it can enhance your physique."
Seeing her serious expression, Pei Jing guessed that this must be a rare and valuable item.
"My body is fine, stronger than the average person," Pei Jing held her hand, his gaze intense. "You and the children probably need it more than I do."
"I can't take it," Zhi Xia explained. "Although it can enhance the physique, it requires training to develop the body. The greater the intensity of the training, the stronger the body development. I don't exercise regularly, so it would be a waste for me to drink it."
She had also considered increasing her own strength, but anything beyond the ordinary was really hard to endure, so she gave up.
Besides, although she didn't look fat, her body was in good shape.
In these years, with the help of the divine doctor sister and her own frequent reading of medical books, she had her body regulated.
In addition, her space contained various medicinal herbs, and she had also learned some basic medical skills and pharmaceutical knowledge.
And then there was Hu Niu's side, with the miraculous Snow Crystal Fruit and beast meat with special energy.
In any case, the four of them had not fallen ill in these past few years, and it was easy to see that these things were related.
After Zhi Xia finished explaining, Pei Jing took the item from her and opened it, then raised his head and drank it down.
Seeing his decisive manner, Zhi Xia suddenly laughed. "I told you, and you believe it without question. You're not afraid that I'll harm you?"
Pei Jing only knew about the existence of the space, but he had never seen the world outside the rooms within the space.
What was even more rare was that he never questioned the strange things about Zhi Xia, giving her complete trust.
"I'm not afraid. If you really wanted to harm me, I wouldn't be able to defend against it," Pei Jing pulled her to sit down and placed his hand on her round belly, his handsome face filled with tenderness. "Wife, sometimes I think of you and our child as treasures given to me by the heavens, making me want to protect you both forever..."
It could be said that before he knew that Zhi Xia was the woman from that night, he had never thought about getting married. ๐ป๐ป๐ฆ๐๐๐๐ซ๐ท๐๐๐ฆ๐ต.๐ฌ๐ฐ๐
Having seen his comrades get married and then constantly dealing with family and children matters, eventually having to choose to leave the army and return home, at that time, he was wholeheartedly devoted to the military and felt that family life would be troublesome. No one could shake his desire not to marry.
Later, the reason he wanted to marry her was mostly because of the relationship between the two families, which made him unable to avoid taking responsibility for her. However, he didn't expect that married life would not be as tedious and troublesome as he had imagined...
Or perhaps, this kind of complexity and trouble, with her being the other half, became something that he willingly embraced, turning from being tedious and troublesome into happiness and anticipation.
"That will give you the opportunity to stay with us for a lifetime." Zhi Xia also felt the taste of happiness and reached out to take something else. "Ajing, actually I know that you want me to return to Jincheng for the sake of me and the children. I just can't bear to leave you, can't bear to leave our home here, and can't bear to leave our peaceful and beautiful life now."
"I'm sorry, it's the consequence of my greed." In fact, they already had a son and a daughter, and even if they didn't have a second child, two children were enough.
But his greedy desire for another child unexpectedly resulted in the sudden arrival of three, which created the current dilemma.
"You don't need to apologize. Having children was a decision we both made, and I also love children. These three little ones chose us as their parents, so we should be happy. And I believe that a brief separation will deepen our feelings, don't you think?" Zhi Xia asked him.
Pei Jing was taken aback. "Are you agreeing to return to Jincheng?"
He had been thinking about it these past few days but couldn't figure out how to persuade her. He had made up his mind to convince her in the next couple of days, but he didn't expect that she had already noticed his intentions.
Zhi Xia hugged him, burying her head in his neck and nodded.
A decision had to be made. If they kept delaying, it would be awkward if she gave birth on the train.
Pei Jing didn't know whether he should be happy or not.
For the sake of her and the children, he should be happy, but the family was about to face separation, and he had many regrets.
"My eldest brother is going back for the New Year this year. I want to take the children and go with him. That way, when I give birth, you can come back to accompany me, right?"
"I will definitely be able to. I will definitely rush back." Pei Jing said guiltily.
