143. Chapter 143 Fire Takes Advantage of the Wind



After waiting for a while, her father showed no sign of coming back, so Jiang Mi simply cut a small hole in her mother's hand to open up the permissions. After doing this, she slipped into the space.

She looked around but couldn't find her father. Finally, she saw him in the orchard. He was bending over with his hands behind his back, carefully looking at the watermelons and strawberries she planted.

Hearing the footsteps, Father Jiang turned his head and looked over, smiling and said, "Not bad, my daughter, the crops are growing well. How long have you been growing them?"

Jiang Mi came forward and said, "At most it's been less than half a month, maybe more than a week."

"It's cooked in more than a week?" Father Jiang was a little shocked.

After all, the soil in the air-raid shelter was also taken out from space, but the effect is not so exaggerated.

It takes at least a hundred days for a watermelon to mature from the time it is planted, but it’s already ripe in just half a month?

Jiang Mi explained the accelerated growth of crops in the space, and Jiang's father suddenly realized it and said with great joy: "If this space can be opened, we can grow food in it. There will be no famine in this world. When your mother and I were young, we really had no food to eat. Not to mention white rice, we really ate corn or bean powder mixed with bran and chaff to fill our stomachs. The wild vegetables on the ground were picked up without leaving any roots. There was a great famine... How many people stuffed poisonous things into their mouths to avoid starvation."

"Fortunately, your mother and I were born at the end of the famine, so we didn't have to endure too much hardship. Otherwise, you and your brother wouldn't be here."

Jiang Mi was not surprised at all that his father began to reminisce about the past, he just listened quietly.

People who lived through that era have a special feeling for grain. Especially the Chinese, when they look at the quality of land, the first criterion is whether it can grow grain. This is almost a conditioned reflex.

If she could control this space freely, she actually wanted to use the space to grow more food. As long as she controlled the food resources, she would be invincible in this world.

There were many thoughts in his mind. After his father finished his sigh, Jiang Mi smiled and said, "It's a pity that I can't do it now."

Father Jiang waved his hand and said with great enthusiasm: "It's okay. I used to be a farmer. I can farm a few acres of land without much trouble. Besides, you have modern machinery and tools. Let me help you farm."

"Okay, then I'll wait for your results, Dad." Jiang Mi pursed her lips and smiled, feeling warm in her heart.

After they left the space, Jiang's mother was still sleeping. Jiang Mi looked at the time and saw that it was almost noon, so he fed his mother some glucose again. Then he left the bedroom with Jiang's father, whose body had almost recovered.

"Are you getting along well with Xiao Jiang these past two days?" Father Jiang glanced at the living room and asked Jiang Mi in a low voice when he saw that Jiang Xuyuan was not there.

Jiang Mi nodded, "He's an okay person, a smart man with good sense."

"I think he didn't find out anything while your mother and I were away for the past two days." Father Jiang laughed and stretched his muscles while walking. From time to time, there were crackling sounds coming from his body.

In other words, he had observed Jiang Xuyuan and knew his character. Otherwise, if he had any other thoughts, Jiang's father would have driven him out no matter what, instead of keeping him by his side.

Now that they've been together for two months, he's really developed some feelings for her.

"Dad, I believe in your judgment of people. Since he can stay, it must be because you tacitly agree." Jiang Mi chuckled.

Jiang Mi feels that she can never compare with her father, who built up such a huge business from scratch, in terms of judging people. After all, he has experienced all kinds of ups and downs, but he still managed to retire peacefully. You can imagine how cunning and scheming his father is.

It was precisely because Jiang Xuyuan was tactful, and because throwing the person out would cause trouble, that Jiang's father felt it was safer to keep the person under his watch.

The two chatted and Jiang Xuyuan, who was reading in the study, came over. Seeing that Jiang's father was safe and sound, he smiled a little, nodded respectfully and greeted him softly, "Hello, Uncle Jiang."

Then he went to get a glass of water and brought it over, "Uncle Jiang, are you hungry? I'll go make you something to eat."

Father Jiang waved his hand, "Don't bother, I'm not hungry now."

Then he looked at Jiang Mi and said, "Go and see if your mother is awake."

Jiang Mi understood and got up, left the living room and returned to his parents' bedroom.

It was obvious that her father had sent her away so that he could have a private talk with Jiang Xuyuan. As for what they talked about, it was probably about their future plans.

After playing with her phone in the bedroom for half an hour, she heard some noises from the bed. Jiang's mother coughed a few times and woke up from her coma. She looked a little dazed. Jiang Mi put away her phone and sat beside her, whispering, "Mom? How are you feeling? Are you feeling unwell?"

It took Jiang's mother a while to come back to her senses. She propped herself up and sat against the head of the bed. She originally looked to be in her forties but now looked like she was in her early thirties. The fine wrinkles at the corners of her eyes had been smoothed out, and her face was rosy and full of luster.

"Mi Mi... why are you here?"

"Mom, you've been sleeping for almost three days." Jiang Mi talked about awakening again. Under her guidance, Jiang Mi also successfully released his superpowers, which were wind-related superpowers. They were relatively weak in the early stage, but once they broke through the third level, they would be a powerful weapon.

Now, it is a very good choice for cleaning, but it is not without lethality, it just requires more practice.

Mother Jiang couldn't stop grinning at her own special powers. She waved her hands over and over again, imitating the movements of people casting magic in the movies. Soon the room became a mess as if there was a typhoon.

In the past, Jiang's mother would never do this, but now she is so excited that she just wants to use her supernatural powers to the fullest.

However, the newly awakened supernatural power was weak to begin with, and Jiang's mother's excitement almost exhausted her mental strength. In the end, she lay on the bed dizzy and groaned.

"Where is your father? What superpower did he awaken?" Jiang's mother asked weakly while putting one hand on her forehead and closing her eyes to suppress the feeling of nausea.

"Fire element." Jiang Mi explained.

Looking at it this way, my parents' special abilities are actually quite compatible. Fire can be powered by wind, so its power will increase exponentially, which is pretty good.

After letting his mother drink a glass of water and continue lying down to rest, Jiang Mi left the bedroom to inform his father.

Jiang Xuyuan had already tied his apron in the kitchen and was preparing lunch. Father Jiang was peeling garlic on the sofa. When he saw Jiang Mi's expression change, he asked with a smile on his face, "Is your mother awake?"

Jiang Mi nodded, "I'm awake. I'm a little excited. I'm lying down to rest now."

Father Jiang put down the garlic in his hand and said, "You continue. I'll go see your mother."

Jiang Mi hummed, and after peeling a head of garlic, he was about to continue when Jiang Xuyuan's voice sounded from behind him, with a somewhat helpless smile, "That's enough, no need to peel anymore."

After saying that, he bent down and grabbed the garlic cloves on the table. Jiang Mi coughed, got up and walked around to the kitchen. Seeing that he was stewing something, he asked curiously, "What are you stewing?"

"Black chicken soup, to nourish uncle and aunt." Jiang Xuyuan replied while busying himself. His movements were orderly and very pleasing to the eye.
