Transmigrating from a zombie world to become the mecha kings wife

Chapter 95 A Mother's Love

?

The descent of her loved ones and guests on the house the moment she closed the live broadcast was really amusing. It was if the school bell had rung, telling all the children that it was time for breakfast so the children run to the dining hall eagerly anticipating the wonderful meal they were going to have. In this case it was not children but adults, including her father.

"Why are you all showing up at the same time? I did not send anyone to call you." She said to her brothers.

"We caught bits of your live broadcast on the outdoor screen. It has been connected to the star net and it will stay on all day just showing news, music and the like." Beord answered.

An idea crossed her mind, why use it to play music and distract the workers when it could be used for something more important.

"Are there education channels, like a teacher in an empty classroom teaching children that are being home schooled, e-learning."

Adler checked the star net for this information while Beord helped himself to a large bowl of oat porridge to which he added a lot of sugar.

"Keep eating sugar like that and you will become stuffed like a Teddy bear." Scarlet warned him.

"Please!!!" He replied arrogantly and flexed his biceps, "I work out for one hour daily and I spend half of my day at the construction site I am pretty sure that I am safe." He replied.

She snorted and watched him leave. After serving three more bowls the porridge she prepared on the live broadcast was finished so she sent the hungry mob out of the kitchen and hallway, asking them to find somewhere else to sit and wait for ten minutes. There was another bigger pan of oat porridge that was boiling. She could hear the boisterous laughter and conversation coming from the dining and living rooms. Living with a large family was anything but quiet.

"Fey when the rest of the porridge is ready distribute it in different bowls and have Elroy help you serve it. Do not forget Severus's share, fill up his bowl and give him four handfuls of bacon to go with it."

"Oh they are going to hate him even more." Fey commented."Where are you going sister?"

"Today is day one of milking the cows with that milking device so I want to make sure that they are not harmed. If accidents happen the cows could be milked until blood comes out or the device could cause wounds on the udders. In case there is a sick cow it's milk is off limits. I am going to take a look."

"Mummy I want to see." Justin who was sitting on his small table and chair with Halley raised his hand.

"Finish your breakfast first and then someone will send you to the barn. Make sure that you are wearing your safety boots and overalls." She kissed him on the cheek. Little shy Halley also presented her cheek and she kissed it.

It was after kissing Halley's cheek that she recalled not having seen their mother all morning.

"Fey, where is our mother?" She asked partly curious and partly worried.

"In bed, the pregnancy is acting up or so I heard our father saying. Her feet are also swollen and the child keeps kicking. Normally she would be taken to a hospital but there is no hospital or doctor here."

"The med bed can't fix it?" Scarlet asked. It was supposed to be this medical miracle that fixed everything.

"If med beds could fix everything then we would not need doctors, prosthetics or medicines." Fey answered her. She was both informative and irritated.

Scarlet nodded and went straight away to the bedroom to check on her mother first. Knocking on the door three times, she heard the loud voice of her mother inviting her into the bedroom.

She had never been inside of this bedroom before, not even the old Scarlet had. It was a very organised room with minimum clutter and devoid of any design. The walls were bare and cream in color. Aside from the bed the only visible piece of furniture she could see was a metallic table with an old glass vase that held three plastic yellow flowers. For some unknown reason looking at it made Scarlet's heart ache.

"Hey dearie, what brings you here this morning, I would think that you are going to be extraordinary busy today. It is the day of the arrival of the first immigrants after all.Come and sit next to me." She patted a place next to her on the big soft mattress that Scarlet had provided.

She chose not to sit but lay on the bed with he head on Mega's chest. Maybe she was feeling emotional after looking at the pathetic yellow flowers or it was the realisation that apart from Justin, she had not yet fully accepted this new family of hers. At times, she acted as if she was just a passer by in their lives. Her memories of her life as Su Yan were still so much alive and dominant at times making her reject almost everything to do with Scarlet, especially the ugly parts. But to them, she was their daughter, not Su Yan but Scarlet.They were so happy to have a daughter that was back to her senses that they had no idea that their real daughter had died and an impostor was in their midst. All the love they gave to her was genuine and unquestionable. This was her family now_ this was her mother and her mother was not okay.

"What is wrong Scarlet? I can feel your nervousness in the air, it's making me more anxious than the little one in my stomach at the moment."

"I am worried because you are in bed feeling ill and you did not tell me." She replied.

"Why would I tell you such a thing and make you worry? A mother's love will never allow her to put her burdens and worries on her children. We keep them to ourselves and maybe discuss them with our husband's. Speaking of husbands when did you start sleeping outside young lady?"
