Monster Vegetables
After doing all this, she took a day off, took the supporting documents that Wang Jianguo had helped prepare, and went to the relevant departments in the city.
The inheritance procedure went smoothly. In just half a day, she got the real estate certificate and land use certificate with a red seal.
Now she has a family.
After returning home, Zhong Ling took out a small green porcelain bottle from the mustard seed space.
There was spiritual spring water in the bottle. She poured a few drops of this small bottle of spiritual spring water into the water tank to dilute it.
Even the diluted spiritual spring water contains unimaginable vitality for mortal plants.
She needs these vegetables to grow quickly, not only to be self-sufficient, but also to pave the way for subsequent plans.
She evenly poured the diluted spiritual spring water into the soil. As the water seeped in, the color of the soil became deeper and more shiny.
After doing all this, it was getting dark. Zhong Ling packed up her things and went back to the house to practice in her space.
On the third day, the first villager to go out habitually glanced at Zhong Ling's house.
Then, the man stopped and his eyes slowly widened.
I saw that on the originally bare land behind Zhong Ling's house, a dense patch of green sprouts had suddenly appeared.
The green was so bright and dazzling. How long had it been like this? When I looked at it before, there was clearly nothing there.
In one morning, the news spread to half of the village.
Many people pretended to pass by, or deliberately took a detour to take a peek at Zhong Ling's vegetable garden.
"Did you see that? There are seedlings sprouting in Xiao Zhong's field."
"Wow, it's growing so fast! It's so green and vibrant."
"My seeds have been planted three or four days ago, and they're still not this neat."
Another week passed, and the vegetables in the field looked different every day.
The original tender buds quickly grew taller and spread out their leaves.
The most surprising thing is that these vegetables not only grow fast, but also look amazing.
The leaves are thick and bright in color, without any trace of insect damage. Each one looks like a carefully cared-for specimen.
Now, even the most obtuse villagers noticed that something was wrong.
This vegetable looks too "evil".
Most of the previous discussions about Zhong Ling were about how capable and difficult to mess with a young girl like her.
Now, the focus of the topic shifted to this vegetable field.
That afternoon, Grandma Sun from next door came to the fence again, carrying her chipped enamel bowl.
Her eyes were fixed on the lush green vegetable patch at the back of the yard.
"Xiao Zhong, your vegetables...are really good looking."
Granny Sun smacked her lips, her eyes full of wonder and a hint of unconcealable desire.
"Um."
Zhong Ling put down the work in her hands, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and looked at the old man outside the fence.
Her tone remained flat, and no emotion could be heard.
Grandma Sun swallowed her saliva, her eyes lingering on the green vegetables.
"The leaves of this vegetable are so plump that they look like they could squeeze out water."
"I haven't seen such juicy vegetables in years."
She licked her chapped lips, tentatively and with a hint of embarrassment.
"Um... Xiao Zhong, look..."
Zhong Ling nodded before she finished speaking.
"Want to try it?"
Grandma Sun's eyes lit up and she nodded repeatedly.
"Hey, hey! That's what I mean! To be honest, it makes me hungry just by looking at it."
Zhong Ling didn't say much and turned to walk into the vegetable garden.
She picked a few of the best-growing vegetables.
The stems of the vegetables were crisp. When they were gently broken, with a "crack", the leaves shone with a healthy luster in the sunlight.
She also picked two cucumbers with flowers and thorns on the top. The cucumbers were of uniform size, with distinct thorns on the skin, showing freshness.
Zhong Ling took these to the fence and handed them to Grandma Sun.
"Take it and try it. It's just grown, so it should taste okay."
Granny Sun quickly stretched out her hands to catch it, as if she was holding some treasure.
It feels slightly cool and heavy to the touch, and the fresh smell of vegetables goes straight into your nose.
"Oh! This, this is great! Thank you, Xiao Zhong!"
The wrinkles on the old lady's face were all smiling, and her eyes were narrowed into slits.
"This cucumber looks so crisp!"
Zhong Ling looked at her overjoyed expression, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
Word of mouth is built up bit by bit in this way.
Free advertising, don’t waste it.
The vegetables grown with this spiritual spring water are of far superior quality to ordinary ones, so there is no need to worry about no one knowing about it.
Grandma Sun thanked her, held the vegetables and cucumbers in her hands like treasures, and went back to her home with light steps.
As soon as she left, several villagers who had been watching quietly nearby exchanged glances with each other and came over hesitantly.
An aunt in a blue coat was rubbing her hands with a flattering smile on her face.
"Xiao Zhong, your dish... is really good."
Another slightly younger daughter-in-law also agreed.
"Yeah, yeah, they look better than the ones sold in the city."
Their eyes all glanced towards the vegetable patch, their intentions were self-evident.
Zhong Ling glanced at them, still with that indifferent look.
"Yeah, she looks okay."
She didn't offer it, nor did she refuse.
The villagers looked at each other, and it was the aunt who was bolder and asked tentatively.
"Um... could you... give us some to try?"
This time, Zhong Ling did not agree immediately, but spoke slowly.
"The seedlings have just emerged from the ground, and these are the only ones growing fast."
Her voice was not loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.
"It's enough for me to eat, but there's not much left."
As soon as these words were spoken, the smiles on the faces of several villagers froze for a moment.
This is... don't want to give it?
That’s right, they worked so hard to grow it, why should they give it to them for free?
A few of them felt a little embarrassed and were thinking about whether to give up, but Zhong Ling changed the subject.
"However, since everyone wants to try it, just pick a few."
She pointed to a small patch of greens near the fence.
"Just over there, don't take too much, just taste them all."
This unexpected turn of events made several villagers overjoyed.
"Hey! Thank you, Xiao Zhong!"
"You are such a real person!"
Several people hurried into the yard, carefully picked a few vegetables, thanked him repeatedly, and then left satisfied.
Looking at their departing backs, Zhong Ling's eyes moved slightly.
With the witness of the villagers, the plan can be implemented.
After returning home, Grandma Sun didn't even take a break and washed the vegetables in an old wooden basin next to the stove.
When flushed with clean water, the leaves of the vegetables became even greener and more shiny, as if water could be squeezed out of them.
The small thorns on the cucumber stand upright and emit a fragrance.
She picked up a cucumber, broke off a small piece with a "crunch", and put it in her mouth.
The crisp taste explodes instantly, and the slightly sweet juice fills the mouth.
The taste was even better than what she remembered growing in her own fields when she was young.
"Good stuff, really good stuff."
Grandma Sun smacked her lips while lighting a fire to prepare lunch.
She was reluctant to stir-fry all the vegetables, so she only picked a few leaves on the outermost layer and stir-fried them with some diced bacon left over from yesterday.
