In the C-7 zone farmland, Lin Qiye activated the "Cultivator Type 3" multi-functional work platform and began practicing and familiarizing himself with his work.
He had just settled into his seat and adjusted the control panel when his personal terminal on his wrist began to vibrate.
It was a voice message from Bai Muxi.
Lin Qiye's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly clicked on it.
"Honey, the test results are in... the doctor said I'm pregnant!"
Bai Muxi's voice, filled with undisguised joy and a hint of excitement, came through the terminal clearly.
A bright smile instantly bloomed on Lin Qiye's face.
Although he had expected it, he was still incredibly happy and excited to hear the news with his own ears.
He immediately switched to video call mode.
Soon, Bai Muxi's face, with a gentle smile, appeared on the screen.
"Honey, that's wonderful!" Lin Qiye exclaimed excitedly. "How are you feeling now?"
"Everything is fine." Bai Muxi's cheeks were flushed with a healthy blush. "The doctor said that I should pay attention to rest and have a balanced diet in the early stages of pregnancy, and also prescribed some nutritional supplements for me."
"That's good, that's good." Lin Qiye nodded repeatedly. "After you get home, you should rest well. Don't do any heavy or tiring work. I'll do it when I get off work."
"Okay, okay, you can go to work without worry. I'm not made of paper," Bai Muxi said reproachfully, but her tone was full of sweetness.
The two chatted for a while longer, exchanging a few words of advice before reluctantly hanging up the video call.
Lin Qiye put down the terminal, his emotions unable to calm down for a long time.
He's going to be a dad!
This feeling is both wonderful and exciting.
He took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and began to familiarize himself with the operation of the agricultural machinery.
The farm's workload is not heavy today. It is not the busy farming season, and most crops are in their growth period and do not require much intervention.
Lin Qiye drove the "Cultivator Type III" around the area he was responsible for, checked the operation of the irrigation system and sensors, and recorded some basic data.
After finishing these routine tasks, he found that he seemed to have nothing else to do.
"Since there's nothing else to do, how about... we practice some calisthenics?"
Once the thought popped into my head, I couldn't suppress it anymore.
Anyway, this is his private work area, and few people usually come here.
He parked the work platform by the field, found a relatively flat open space, and began to do the "128th Set of Broadcast Gymnastics" in a meticulous manner.
The morning sun was warm and gentle, and a breeze rustled through the golden valley, as if providing accompaniment.
An hour later, a set of radio calisthenics was completed.
Lin Qiye felt much better and his spirits lifted.
He glanced at the system panel:
[128th Set of Broadcast Gymnastics, Level 1 (4/10)]
"Great, another step forward!"
We had a simple nutritious lunch provided by the farm and rested for a while.
In the afternoon, Lin Qiye found some free time and once again devoted himself to practicing radio calisthenics.
Sweat streamed down his face, but he seemed to enjoy it.
Every effective practice session means taking a step closer to your goal.
When the afternoon's training session ended, the progress bar on the system panel updated again:
[128th Set of Broadcast Gymnastics, Level 1 (5/10)]
"Great! We're halfway done!" Lin Qiye thought excitedly.
Finally, it was time to get off work, and Lin Qiye almost couldn't wait to board the express bus back to his neighborhood.
The thought of his gentle wife and hot meals waiting for him at home made his steps lighten.
Back home, as expected, Bai Muxi had already prepared a sumptuous dinner and was busy in the kitchen wearing an apron.
"Wife, I'm home!" Lin Qiye gently hugged her from behind.
Bai Muxi was startled by his sudden action, then playfully patted his hand: "You're back. Go wash your hands, dinner will be ready soon."
Her voice was gentle and soft.
Lin Qiye grinned, and it started to feel like home.
……
After dinner, Bai Muxi continued to patiently instruct Lin Qiye on the moves and power techniques of the "Eight Treasures Kung Fu".
However, considering her pregnancy, starting today, the guidance time has been shortened to one hour, and her own practice time has also been reduced to one hour accordingly.
"Your movements are more coordinated than yesterday. Keep it up," Bai Muxi encouraged, but she also knew that Lin Qiye still had a long way to go before he could even grasp the basics of the Eight Treasures Kung Fu.
Lin Qiye nodded and practiced diligently.
After an hour of instruction on the Eight Treasures Exercise, Bai Muxi went to sit quietly and regulate her breathing to consolidate her cultivation, which was also a form of prenatal education during her pregnancy.
Lin Qiye, without hesitation, threw himself back into practicing the 128th set of broadcast gymnastics.
For him, it was still unknown when he would even begin to grasp the basics of the Eight Treasures Kung Fu.
The upgrade of radio calisthenics clearly shows progress!
Moreover, according to the system, once cultivation privileges are granted, one can directly cultivate to the maximum level!
Under the lights, his figure repeatedly performed those actions that he knew by heart.
Sweat soaked his clothes, and his muscles trembled slightly from exhaustion, but he gritted his teeth and persevered.
[128th Set of Broadcast Gymnastics, Level 1 (6/10)]
[128th Set of Broadcast Gymnastics, Level 1 (7/10)]
[128th Set of Broadcast Gymnastics, Level 1 (8/10)]
That night, he practiced radio calisthenics for a full three hours, completing three rounds!
When the final round ended, Lin Qiye stopped almost completely exhausted, panting heavily.
Although he was extremely exhausted, he was filled with anticipation as he looked at the encouraging progress bar on the system panel.
"Just two more times! Tomorrow, I'll definitely level up!"
This thought sustained him and filled him with immense excitement.
After washing up, Lin Qiye fell asleep almost immediately upon hitting the bed, too exhausted to even exchange a few more words with Bai Muxi.
Bai Muxi looked at Lin Qiye's sleeping profile and shook her head helplessly.
She sighed softly, thinking to herself, "That's how ordinary people are. When they encounter difficulties, they tend to choose the familiar and comfortable path, and find it hard to persevere in overcoming new challenges."
In her view, Lin Qiye's decision to abandon the more promising "Eight Treasures Exercise" and instead focus on the inefficient radio calisthenics is a typical example of "path dependence."
Although she could understand this choice, she couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
After all, the potential of radio calisthenics is too low.
However, thinking about how he worked hard during the day and persisted in cultivating at night for the sake of the family and the unborn child, Bai Muxi's dissatisfaction gradually dissipated.
"Never mind, as long as he's happy."
Bai Muxi lay down as well and gradually drifted off to sleep.
