Bai Qingqing asked Parker to lift the pot lid and took a look. Seeing that the soup had turned green, she scooped out some of the liquid and continued to let the green beans cook.
The fragrance of green beans emanated from the green liquid. She blew upon it and took two sips. It tasted identical to the green beans she tasted on Earth. She couldn’t help asking, “Tastes awesome. Why doesn’t everyone eat them?”
“This is medicine,” said Parker simply.
“It’s a pity to regard this solely as medicine,” Bai Qingqing said. She thought to herself that she ought to keep some green bean seeds so that she could plant them herself for consumption in the future.
Intuitively understanding her intention, Parker glanced at her and said, “You wish to eat it yourself?”
“Mm.”
Parker lowered his head and murmured, “Then, I’ve got to go pick some more.”
After scooping out a bowl of clear water, the remaining green beans were left simmering in the pot to turn into a viscous green bean porridge. In order for the effects to be more potent, Bai Qingqing didn’t eat it with other foods and merely drank it like that. By the time she was done drinking, her belly seemed to have puffed up a little.
Having eaten her fill, Bai Qingqing leaned against the tree trunk and started talking to her belly again.
“Baby, listen to Mommy and move a little…”
No idea if it was the medicine working, but when Bai Qingqing caressed her tummy, she suddenly felt something moving slightly in her stomach.
“Ah!” Bai Qingqing widened her mouth and waved at Parker, her eyes staring intently at her belly. “The baby’s moving!”
“Really?” Parker leaped to her side and dusted his hands, then pressed his palm against her stomach.
The heat from his palm seemed to startle the female baby, for she moved again; it felt like she was flipping her body.
Bai Qingqing was so happy that she nearly cried tears of joy. “Finally, there’s movement.”
Lying belly-down on the side, the white tiger’s expression also eased, before resting his head on his front paws once more and falling back to sleep.
