Ning Miaomiao didn't understand, but was greatly shocked.

It turns out that units that send gifts can now rise to planets?

But as Ms. Zhong said, if it were a planet, she would definitely not want it.

"I..." Ning Miaomiao wanted to say something, but Feng Xuran was faster than her.

"After I've recovered, I'll go to the battlefield. Although this may sound like an overstatement, if I go, I can help increase the number of people surviving on the battlefield by one percent per year."

"Don't underestimate it, it's only one percent, but there are more than 500 million soldiers on the border."

"So this is not only your reward for saving me, but also your reward for indirectly saving more people."

"Also... I think you might need some money. Even if you don't want the planet I'm giving you, you can look up information about it. It's not very expensive, only around 13 billion."

As he spoke, Feng Xuran turned on the computer and showed Ning Miaomiao a video.

Ning Miaomiao, who was about to say that she was not interested in the planet, suddenly widened her eyes.

Feng Xuran showed Ning Miaomiao a barren planet that was somewhat similar to Z666. This barren planet did not have any particularly special resources, but the environment on it was particularly good, especially the various plants grew particularly well.

Just by looking at them, Ning Miaomiao could see the comfort and pleasure of those plants.

She had only thought about living in seclusion before, but she had never thought about where to live in seclusion.

This planet has few people and is basically undeveloped, so the environment is suitable for plants.

It's a retreat tailor-made for her!

"This planet is in my hands now. I'll keep it in its current state and wait for you to buy it." Feng Xuran smiled. "And I'll give you a 20% discount, just like you give us military personnel a discount."

Can this be the same?

Feng Xuran added, "By the way, you can pay a down payment of about 20 percent first, and we'll pay the rest in interest-free installments."

Ning Miaomiao finally understood. Feng Xuran said that the planet was not given to her for free, but in reality, was it really given to her for free?

He was the one who gave the shares. Based on the profits of those companies, Ning Miaomiao could have gotten this planet before graduation.

"And you can go and see it during your holidays." Feng Xuran added, "Of course, you need someone to protect you."

It's a blatant temptation, an open conspiracy.

But Ning Miaomiao couldn't refuse.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Okay! I agree! But from now on, I'll give you one-third of the catnip I have! Let you treat your subordinates first!"

"Then I would like to thank you on behalf of my subordinates." Feng Xuran blinked at Ning Miaomiao, his face full of joy.

The two reached a consensus and talked about Feng Xuran's spiritual pollution.

"With your catnip, I can use it to reduce my mental pollution. I estimate that I can return to the battlefield in half a year at most."

"Then I'll still come out to see you every time I have a holiday, or maybe you have something I can help you with?" Ning Miaomiao looked at him inquiringly, and when she saw Feng Xuran nodded, she said, "Then I'll leave two more catnip plants for you to use."

"That's fine." Feng Xuran nodded calmly, "Then I will protect it well and prevent it from getting damaged. I can give it to other people later."

"Yeah." Ning Miaomiao nodded.

It was when talking about catnip that Ning Miaomiao remembered that there was a room full of catnip over there.

She looked at Feng Xuran suspiciously: "Why aren't you wearing a helmet? Isn't it uncomfortable?"

"It's okay," Feng Xuran said. "Maybe it's because I smelled it for too long before, so I've temporarily become immune to it. And most of the smell is contained in the room, so it doesn't affect me much."

"Okay." Ning Miaomiao shrugged and said, "Then I'll go collect the catnip first."

"Okay, I'll go downstairs first."

"Um."

Ning Miaomiao went to the previous room and saw Luo Yue and Luo Yang packing up the things inside, but they were careful to avoid catnip.

Then send the catnip plants into the space one by one.

In addition to the original five catnip plants, Ning Miaomiao left two more. The two remaining plants were of the best quality among the B-grade plants. They were the kind that could easily become A-grade if she didn't control them well.

"Hiss... No, the smell is still a bit strong." Luo Yang secretly opened his helmet and quickly closed it again.

That's it, his tail popped out too.

Luo Yue was too lazy to pay attention to her brother who was always looking for trouble. She held the last two pots of catnip that Ning Miaomiao had taken out and said, "Aren't you going to put this in?"

"No, leave it for Feng Xuran." Ning Miaomiao held the other catnip and said, "Put these in Feng Xuran's room first."

"Okay." Luo Yue followed behind holding catnip.

In addition to the four pots they were holding, there were three more pots placed in Ning Miaomiao's planting space.

Luo Yue followed Ning Miaomiao, watched Ning Miaomiao push open the door of Feng Xuran's room and go in, and stopped silently at the door.

After Ning Miaomiao placed five catnip plants, she turned around and saw that Luo Yue did not follow in.

She wondered, "Why don't you come in?"

"The major general doesn't like other people entering his room." Luo Yue explained.

Ning Miaomiao opened her eyes wide in surprise: "Then am I..."

"Miao Miao, since you are a planter, no one will dislike you being close to them." Luo Yue said vaguely.

But even so, Ning Miaomiao quickly took the things from Luo Yue's hand and put them away before coming out.

The good news is that the most difficult part of treating Feng Xuran is over.

Another good news is that Ning Miaomiao's catnip seeds not only matured, but also fell off automatically and produced a new crop.

This crop is almost ripe.

The second batch of seeds is a little more than the first batch, nearly three hundred in total, and now the third batch on the catnip also looks to be around three hundred.

It looks like this will be the number of seeds we will have in the future.

Although it was almost enough, she felt that she could plant more!

Ning Miaomiao wondered if she could save more seeds and then, preferably, go somewhere to continue planting some.

But she can only go to school now. Will the school give her a place to grow crops?

It seems...it's not impossible?

Can you ask the principal?

They seem to support her?

Ning Miaomiao thought about it and sorted out the catnip in the space. She also scattered some seeds on the ground in the planting space and would transplant them into flowerpots when they grew a little bigger.

But it seems like I forgot something?

What's happening?

When she got downstairs and saw Feng Xuran - or to be more precise, when she saw him looking at her with his strong forearms exposed, she remembered what she had forgotten.

The thing that was dug out from Feng Xuran’s forearm!

Feng Xuran looks tall and thin, but as a graduate of a military academy, his physical skills are also quite good.

The muscles in his arms are beautifully defined, not exaggerated, but clearly contain considerable strength.

Ning Miaomiao clapped her hands: "Yes, that thing!"

"What is that?" Feng Xuran heard Ning Miaomiao's footsteps, but he didn't expect Ning Miaomiao to suddenly speak.

"Wait a moment." Ning Miaomiao said, her eyes blank.

There were many flower pots in her space, and it took her some effort to find the things.

As a result, while she had a pot of catnip in her hand, she also saw Feng Xuran who had approached her at some point.

Ning Miaomiao: “?”

The confusion on her face was too obvious, so Feng Xuran explained: "It's dangerous for you to stop suddenly on the stairs."

"Oh, oh, oh." Ning Miaomiao smiled embarrassedly, "I was just too anxious just now."

"Have you found the thing?" Feng Xuran actually guessed what Ning Miaomiao was talking about. After all, the look in Ning Miaomiao's eyes just now was too obvious.

"Found it." Ning Miaomiao nodded, and she walked downstairs holding the flower pot. "Come here, I'll show you."

"good."

Feng Xuran followed obediently behind, only looking up casually.

He saw Luo Yang's mouth covered and being forcibly dragged away, but he didn't say anything.

Ms. Zhong and Feng Xing were busy in the kitchen. Because Ning Miaomiao put away the catnip, and the villa had a good ventilation system, at least the smell in the room was not strong. Ms. Zhong and the others also took off their helmets one by one. Ning Miaomiao could even smell the fragrance of the food.

Ning Miaomiao and Feng Xuran were the only ones in the living room. They sat on the sofa. Ning Miaomiao placed the flower pot on the coffee table and said, "There's something in here..."

She paused, choosing her words carefully. "I took it out of your body. It seems fine now, but it seemed to have caused mental pollution in you before."

"Can I take a look?" Feng Xuran asked.

Ning Miaomiao said, "Okay, wait a minute, I'll get a spoon."

Ning Miaomiao went to the kitchen to get a spoon and then picked the food out of the flowerpot.

It was a thing...about the size of a bean.

It appeared translucent and now lay curled up motionless, looking completely harmless.

But neither Ning Miaomiao nor Feng Xuran would underestimate it.

Feng Xuran looked at it carefully, then frowned: "I think I've seen this thing somewhere before."

"Have you seen it?" Ning Miaomiao's face was full of surprise. She urged, "Then think carefully about where you have seen it. I think this thing is very strange, and I don't like it very much."

"Okay." Feng Xuran really thought about it seriously.

But as he was thinking, he seemed to remember something and reached out his hand.

Ning Miaomiao stopped him: "You can think about it, but don't touch it. This thing is not a threat to me, but it seems to be a big threat to you. You are not well yet. It was very difficult for me to dig it out last time."

Ning Miaomiao's mumblings all fell into Feng Xuran's ears. He smiled helplessly: "I just want to pick up the spoon and take a look."

"...Okay." Ning Miaomiao touched her nose embarrassedly after realizing that she was too excited.

Well, you can't blame her entirely, she really hates this thing.

And it seems to be very good at camouflage. Even now, it is not moving at all, just as harmless as its appearance.

But Ning Miaomiao would not be fooled by it.

Feng Xuran stared at the spoon for a long while, then took out his laptop, took a video, and sent it to someone. "A friend of mine should know this guy. I remember seeing a similar photo on his site, but he's quite busy, so I don't know how long it will take for him to get back to me..."

Before he could finish his words, Feng Xuran's computer started ringing.

Feng Xuran looked at the name on it, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. He then asked Ning Miaomiao, "Can I play it publicly? That way you can hear it too."

"But he'll see you too."

"It's okay, I want to listen." Ning Miaomiao said, and reminded, "Do you want to ask him?"

"It's okay." Feng Xuran said this, but he actually asked the person on the other end a question after the call was connected.

I don’t know what the person on the other side said. A look of helplessness flashed across Feng Xuran’s face, and then he turned on the radio.

Ning Miaomiao also noticed that there was suddenly a figure in the living room.

Ning Miaomiao was able to remain calm as this was not her first time seeing a holographic projection. However, she was still a little uneasy when she saw the man rushing directly to the coffee table with his eyes fixed on the contents of the spoon.

This... ignoring her does make her feel good, but it shouldn't be to the extent that even Feng Xuran is ignored, right?

"He's like this when he comes across something that interests him," Feng Xuran explained.

"So let him watch it like this?" Ning Miaomiao asked humbly.

"Let him finish looking at it before we talk about other things." Feng Xuran shook his head and pointed to the kitchen. "I smell something delicious in there. Why don't you go take a look?"

"Aunt Zhong just mentioned that they fried dried fish." Ning Miaomiao heard what Ms. Zhong said when she went to get a spoon. She was actually quite greedy too.

It was an urgent matter just now, but now it’s nothing serious, right?

Ning Miaomiao was ready to make a move.

"He will need to watch for at least ten minutes. You should go eat something first." Feng Xuran said with a smile.

After hearing what Feng Xuran said, Ning Miaomiao couldn't suppress her greed anymore and ran to the kitchen decisively.

"Aunt Zhong, I'm here to eat fried dried fish!" Ning Miaomiao ran to the kitchen. Aunt Zhong had already put the dried fish there. "Here, help yourself."

"Wow, thank you Aunt Zhong." Ning Miaomiao thanked her sweetly, then peeked in, "Aunt Zhong, can I help you? I can help you cut the vegetables. I'm pretty good at cutting vegetables."

"No need. Just go out and wait." Ms. Zhong pushed her out and put the plate of dried fish in her hands. "Xiaoxing needs to practice his knife skills. Don't take his place."

"Then I can wash the vegetables too!" Ning Miaomiao tried hard to seize the opportunity.

"The vegetables have been washed. There is nothing else I need your help with. Just have a good rest. What if you faint again later? Don't scare Aunt Zhong." Ms. Zhong said, her tone becoming tougher.

Ning Miaomiao muttered, feeling a little guilty: "I'm just a little tired, it's really nothing."

"We'll have to wait until tomorrow to check whether there's anything wrong." Ms. Zhong coaxed her, "Be good, go and rest first. If you're really okay, come with me tomorrow night and we'll make some snacks for you to take back to school."

That's fine.

Ning Miaomiao felt Ms. Zhong's persistence, and knew that she could not defeat Ms. Zhong. Mainly, she did not want to make Ms. Zhong worry, so she finally followed Ms. Zhong's strength and walked out.

It turns out that the most important thing is to find out what happened to her!

Ning Miaomiao thought about it, picked up a small dried fish and bit it hard.

Smells so good!

Ning Miaomiao's eyes lit up, and she didn't care about anything else. She sat on the sofa and put the plate of dried fish on the table. "This is delicious! Would you like to try one?"

"Okay." Feng Xuran also pinched a small dried fish.

A plate of dried fish was not right either. There were only about twenty or thirty finger-sized dried fish. Ning Miaomiao ate them one by one. When she was about to finish, the young man who was staring at the spoon in obsession finally reacted.

The young man looked about the same age as Feng Xuran, but what was strange was that he had a pair of silver eyes and his hair was a very ordinary dark brown.

His facial features were also very three-dimensional, giving Ning Miaomiao the feeling that she was looking at a Westerner.

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm here to help you watch this thing, and you're secretly eating dried fish next to me?"

"Even if I give it to you, you won't be able to eat it." Feng Xuran answered calmly.

The young man's eyes widened. "What are you talking about? Just because I can't eat it, you won't let me eat it?"

Feng Xuran: "Or?"

Before the young man could say anything else, Feng Xuran asked him, "You've been looking at it for so long. What have you noticed? Have you figured out what this thing is?"

"About seven or eight." The young man looked at Feng Xuran, then at the little girl beside him who was still biting a dried fish and looking at him with a puzzled look, and muttered softly, "She doesn't look like she's underage, right? A beast!"

Ning Miaomiao: “?”

She swallowed the dried fish and asked hesitantly, "Isn't this thing adult yet?"

youth:"……"

Feng Xuran couldn't help laughing out loud.

When the young man and Ning Miaomiao looked over at the same time, he restrained his smile and pointed to the contents in the spoon: "This is something I found in my body."

"Hmm?" The young man frowned. "How did you get it out? It wasn't found the last time you came to me. How could you get it out?"

The young man did not doubt that this thing was inside Feng Xuran's body.

Because of this, he even had several doubts resolved.

Why did Feng Xuran’s mental pollution suddenly accelerate and erupt?

Why can’t we find the reason?

A series of things can be connected in series.

"Don't worry about this for now. Tell me first, what exactly is this thing? I remember seeing something similar at your place." Feng Xuran avoided the topic first and pretended not to notice Ning Miaomiao's look.

Ning Miaomiao swallowed the dried fish and smiled at Feng Xuran.

She really liked the fact that Feng Xuran would not tell anyone about her affairs.

"This thing, you could say, is a bug crystal. It's found only in a very small number of high-level Zerg. As for its effect... it probably deepens our mental pollution." The young man shrugged and explained briefly, "Aren't Zerg prone to mental pollution? Zerg with bug crystals are even more polluting. Bug crystals are rare. The difference between the one in front of you and the one over there is probably due to the different Zerg species, including their unique characteristics."

"You know mine, it's super hard, and this one is super hidden."

"I've calculated that its effect is usually subtle, but when your mental power fluctuates too much, it might be stimulated."

"So the first burst of energy occurred when your mental strength broke through SS level."

"Is that so?" In addition to knowing what this thing was, Feng Xuran had already guessed its function.

It was pretty much what he imagined.

The young man's expression turned serious. "Aran, be careful. This thing is hard to come by, and even fewer people know its effects. If someone uses it on you, they're going to kill you."

"I know." Feng Xuran said calmly, "I will take care of this matter."

"That's right." The young man shrugged and pointed at the thing. "By the way, can you give me this? I happen to be in need of more test subjects."

"This thing doesn't belong to me now. I can only give it to you after asking someone." Feng Xuran said.

"Okay, if you can't give it to me, ask if you can lend it to me. At worst, I can trade it with him for fun and then get it back when the time comes." The young man didn't force it and waved his hand, "Remember to try harder to get it for me!"

"Okay." Feng Xuran agreed.

By the time the call was hung up, Ning Miaomiao had unknowingly finished eating the dried fish.

When she touched it again, she found nothing. Feng Xuran saw it and smiled: "Shall I get you some more?"

"No, no, no." Ning Miaomiao shook her head, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

Her expression was too obvious, and Feng Xuran laughed: "Ask whatever you want. As long as it's not something secret, I can answer you."

"Um... why would someone attack you?" Ning Miaomiao tried to hold back, but couldn't help herself. "Are they... not very smart? What good is there in letting something happen to you?"

Not at all!

If this person stays on the battlefield, how many Zerg will be killed?

With fewer Zergs, doesn't that mean everyone's safety is increased?

Feng Xuran was amused by Ning Miaomiao's words: "Yeah, not everyone can figure it out like you. They think that compared to the threat of the Zerg, I am a greater threat."

"No brains." Ning Miaomiao curled her lips, looking very displeased.

Feng Xuran smiled and nodded in agreement: "You are right."

"So what do you think of this thing... would you be willing to lend it to my friend to play with?" Feng Xuran pointed at the thing on the table.

Ning Miaomiao nodded immediately: "No need to lend it, I'll give it to him. It would be a good thing if he can figure out something with it! And since he's your friend, nothing will go wrong with it in his hands, right?"

"Yes, I'll watch him."

In the end, Ning Miaomiao was the one who cleaned up the insect crystals, but the bottle was provided by Feng Xuran.

Fearing that the bug might still make trouble, Ning Miaomiao picked a few leaves and put them in the bottle, then wrapped the bug with catnip leaves: "This should be fine."

"Then you've wasted a catnip plant?" Feng Xuran looked helpless.

Ning Miaomiao waved her hand: "I just happened to keep one extra plant for seed, and in the hands of the grower, even if they are damaged, they will not die in a week."

The leaves had been plucked off and couldn't be pasted back on. Feng Xuran didn't say anything, but silently sent a few messages to his friends. Then he told Ning Miaomiao, "He said he's willing to pay five million credit points for it."

"I really don't lack credit points." Ning Miaomiao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Planet." Feng Xuran reminded slowly.

Ning Miaomiao: "...Okay, I'm short of it."

He readily accepted the five million credit points. The subsequent events of this matter had nothing to do with Ning Miaomiao.

The dishes in the kitchen were ready. Ning Miaomiao ran over to help serve the dishes this time and Ms. Zhong did not refuse.

After a lively dinner, Ning Miaomiao and Ms. Zhong went for a walk in the yard to digest the food, and then sat on the swing chair to chat.

After such a long time, the smell of catnip had basically dissipated, and the barrier of the courtyard was finally opened. Ning Miaomiao swung her legs and felt the breeze on her face. When she thought that Feng Xuran's problem was basically resolved, she felt particularly good.

But—a planet.

Make more money!

Ning Miaomiao went to the shop to take a look, quietly increased the number of reservations to twenty, and sent messages to the eight people she had marked before, asking them to come to the shop in the evening.

Oh, life is not easy, the little demon sighed.

I don’t know how much I’ve earned, but I still feel poor QAQ.

There are also hidden dangers in her body. What on earth is going on with that little man who seemed to have his own consciousness and was molded out of her?

Oh, there are still so many things to do, I’m so busy!

——

On the second day of the month-long holiday, Ning Miaomiao was just playing.

Ms. Zhong took her to learn flower arrangement and painting, and also bought her a lot of clothes on Star Online.

Ning Miaomiao didn't want to at first. After all, she was basically at school all the time. In the First Army, except for the two days of the monthly vacation, they had to wear school uniforms the rest of the time.

So what’s the point of buying too many clothes?

"Dressing up and seeing yourself become more beautiful is a joyful thing. It's not about pleasing others, it's about pleasing yourself," said Ms. Zhong. "Just keep them. I didn't buy too many, just ten dresses. Leave two or three with me. When you come over to play, you don't need to bring any clothes. You can take the rest back to school and wear them when you go out with friends."

Ning Miaomiao's eyes twitched: "But Aunt Zhong, don't you think these skirts you bought are too exaggerated?"

These skirts are all very gorgeous and cute in style. Ning Miaomiao said that they are a bit similar to the Lolita style.

And with matching block-heeled pumps?

Ning·Never wore high heels·Miaomiao: "..."

Ms. Zhong waved her hand. "That's called beautiful. Next time I have time, I'll take you to the main planet and you'll see how beautiful and unique their clothes are! These skirts are perfect for your temperament. I was afraid you wouldn't be used to high heels, so I bought low-heeled ones. Here are some shoes that are not high heels. You can try them."

Ms. Zhong became more and more excited as she bought more.

If Ning Miaomiao hadn't resolutely stopped it, the number of clothes would have at least tripled or quadrupled.

Ms. Zhong was still regretting that she didn't buy enough. Ning Miaomiao compared her height and said, "What if I grow taller if I buy too much?"

"How can this be..." Ms. Zhong almost said something, but looking at Ning Miaomiao's expression, she couldn't help but say, "It's fine just like this."

“…” Ning Miaomiao raised her head with an accusing look in her eyes.

Ms. Zhong coughed lightly and said, "Shall I take you to get your clothes?"

Ordinary converters are not expensive. Ms. Zhong has one at home, and she can get it directly after buying it.

As for the clothes that are a little more expensive because of the converter?

Ms. Zhong said that she didn't care about the extra fee at all, she just wanted Ning Miaomiao to try the clothes on first.

Ning Miaomiao suddenly felt like a doll: "?"

Ms. Zhong also realized that she was too excited. She coughed lightly and said, "Try the size first. If it doesn't fit, you can return it and change it now."

"Just try it?" Ning Miaomiao asked hesitantly.

"Just try it." Ms. Zhong gave an affirmative answer, completely ignoring the fact that she had measured Ning Miaomiao's size using a light computer and that these clothes could not possibly not fit.

Ning Miaomiao thought for a moment and said, "Just trying one set is enough, right?"

"It's better to try them all out. If the color or style doesn't suit me, I can return it," said Ms. Zhong. "Don't waste it."

Ning Miaomiao: “…”

Finally I agreed.

As soon as she agreed, Ms. Zhong became excited and took her back to the room. Then she turned her back and asked, "Do you know how to put it on? If not, let me help you?"

"I can." These skirts were not difficult to wear, and Ms. Zhong had shown her a video tutorial before, so she put them on quickly.

“This one fits perfectly.”

"Really?" Ms. Zhong asked, "So I turned around?"

"good."

Ms. Zhong looked back expectantly, then took a deep breath.

It’s so ladylike and so cute!

"Wow, Miaomiao, how great it would be if you were my daughter! I could buy you lots of pretty dresses! You don't know, I only have two little boys in my family, and I'm so envious of their daughter." Ms. Zhong stared at Ning Miaomiao, her eyes full of emotion.

Ning Miaomiao ran to the mirror and looked at herself.

This yellow dress has a childlike princess style. The skirt just reaches Ning Miaomiao's knees and the shoes are white. Because Ning Miaomiao is young and petite, she looks really cute in this dress.

"Oh, here are some hair accessories." Ms. Zhong came over with the hair accessories. "Can I braid your hair for you?"

What girl doesn’t like to be pretty?

Ning Miaomiao is of course no exception.

She gradually immersed herself in the joy of trying on clothes, and also discussed with Ms. Zhong how to braid her hair beautifully.

Long skirts, short skirts, cute style, gorgeous style, dark style, fairy tale style...

Anyway, none of the ten sets of clothes feel the same.

At first, Ms. Zhong was actually worried that Ning Miaomiao would not be able to wear the dark-style outfit, but when Ning Miaomiao put it on, Ms. Zhong was instantly amazed.

Although Ning Miaomiao looks dark and cute in this outfit, it is indeed very beautiful!

And that hat with a little black veil falling from the brim looks even better when worn!

If it weren't for the fact that there is not much time today, Ms. Zhong would have wanted to put a full set of makeup on Ning Miaomiao!

"You must keep this set here. Next time I will do your makeup, and I guarantee it will look amazing!" Ms. Zhong pointed at the black and red dress.

Ning Miaomiao nodded: "Okay, then I'll take this set with me?"

She preferred green and chose the green suit.

"Okay." Ms. Zhong smiled. "Next time you want to buy clothes, you must ask me to go with you. I'm available anytime, and you can ask me for some advice. I have a pretty good eye."

Ning Miaomiao expressed her confidence in Ms. Zhong's vision and promised to ask Ms. Zhong out next time.

This well-behaved look made Ms. Zhong even more fond of her. She wanted to hug Ning Miaomiao and rub her face against hers.

Isn't this the sweet daughter she wanted when she was pregnant with her second child?

"Okay, why don't you change into this yellow set first, and then we'll go downstairs to make snacks?" Ms. Zhong smiled.

Ning Miaomiao changed her clothes, put on flat leather shoes, and followed Ms. Zhong to the kitchen.

Ms. Zhong smiled and said, "Oh, Miaomiao is so beautiful. I think you shouldn't go to the kitchen, otherwise you will dirty your skirt."

"Then should I change it back?" Ning Miaomiao didn't want to get her skirt dirty.

"Hahaha, I was just kidding you. There are aprons in the kitchen." Ms. Zhong said she was touched by Ning Miaomiao's cuteness.

"Junior Ning???" Before reaching the living room on the first floor, Ning Miaomiao heard an unbelievable voice.

Calling her in such an exaggerated tone...

She turned her head and, as expected, saw Luo Yang with a shocked look on his face.

"When did you change into your skirt, junior? Why are you wearing this kind of skirt? This skirt is really... too cute, right?" While Luo Yang was speaking, Ning Miaomiao also walked down the stairs. Luo Yang stood up and walked to Ning Miaomiao, wanting to reach out and poke the orange hairpin on Ning Miaomiao's head.

Ning Miaomiao quickly covered her head and quickly hid behind Ms. Zhong. She glared at Luo Yang and said, "Don't poke around. This is the hair that Aunt Zhong braided for me. Don't mess it up."

"I'll just do it gently, just let me poke it and see how it goes?" Luo Yang was very excited. "It looks like it feels really good!"

“No!”

Ning Miaomiao not only talked about it, but also took quick action. She grabbed Ms. Zhong's hand and said, "Aunt Zhong, shall we go to the kitchen?"

"Hey? Junior Ning, don't run! Why are you going to the kitchen wearing such a cute and beautiful skirt? It's fine to stay outside!" Luo Yang waved and tried to keep her.

However, his attempts to keep Ning Miaomiao only made her walk faster.

Ms. Zhong couldn't help laughing.

Luo Yue grabbed Luo Yang's collar in time and reminded him through gritted teeth: "Look at the Major General."

Luo Yang: ???

He was still confused, but when he turned around he saw Feng Xuran smiling gently.

Although Feng Xuran didn't say anything, he shuddered.

It seems... not so good?

Ning Miaomiao rushed to the kitchen and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that Luo Yang hadn't followed. She pretended nothing had happened and smiled at Ms. Zhong: "Then where should I start?"

Knowing what each plant is and understanding each plant actually has little to do with cooking.

Ning Miaomiao knew what they were, but didn't know how to deal with them, so she could only ask Ms. Zhong for help.

Ms. Zhong took out an ingredient that looked like a potato, but was two or three times larger than a potato: "This is a potato. Peel it and slice it. Try it."

"Okay." Ning Miaomiao rolled up her sleeves and was about to start working, but Ms. Zhong reluctantly reminded her, "Did you forget your apron?"

"Oh, oh!" Ning Miaomiao remembered. She looked around but couldn't find the apron. When she was confused, Ms. Zhong took out an apron from a small drawer and put it on Ning Miaomiao.

The apron is also very cute, and I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, there is also an orange pattern on it.

This apron was a long-sleeved one, and it also protected Ning Miaomiao's sleeves, which made her feel more at ease.

Ning Miaomiao was not skilled in using a knife. She initially wanted to use the biggest knife, but Ms. Zhong quickly replaced it with another one for her.

Even so, Ms. Zhong couldn't help but keep staring at her.

Seeing that although her movements were slow, she was careful and would not cut herself, she felt relieved.

Anyway, she didn't expect Ning Miaomiao to take care of all the helping tasks. She was more of a playful person, as long as the child didn't hurt himself.

With this thought in mind, Ms. Zhong began to quickly process other ingredients.

Then when she turned around again, she saw Ning Miaomiao doing a lot of tricks with a knife, peeling the potato quickly, playing with the knife with one hand, and flexibly turning the big potato with the fingers of the other hand.

Only a few minutes had passed, why did it seem like she had suddenly gone for further study?

In Ms. Zhong's eyes, this is not a good game, but too dangerous!

"I'll be more careful next time." Ning Miaomiao opened her eyes in surprise, then nodded obediently.

She was so well behaved that Ms. Zhong couldn't say anything harsh. She patted Ning Miaomiao's head and said, "Next time if you want to learn knife skills, I'll buy you a pair of gloves, okay? Then even if you accidentally cut your hand, it'll just hurt a little at most."

"Okay." Ning Miaomiao laughed, "Aunt Zhong, you are so nice."

"Okay, go slice it first. How thick should the slices be... I'll cut a slice for you to see." Ms. Zhong held the potato down, first cut it in half horizontally, and then pressed the cross section down, so that the potato could be placed steadily.

Then she raised her hand and cut
