The newly upgraded things in this space are quite mysterious. There is an additional hill. The hill is not big, nor high, and is covered with green grass. At the top of the hill, there is a peach tree half a person's height.
The peach tree glows faintly, and it is easy to miss it if you don't look carefully.
There are two small peaches and a few flower buds.
When he saw the peach tree for the first time, a name popped up in Yu Xiangan's mind, simple and crude - Lingtao.
After eating it, it can cleanse your bones and marrow, prolong your life and protect you from all diseases.
Looking at this tiny peach, Yu Xiangan felt both happy and worried.
Looking at the number, there are two small fully formed peaches and seven flower buds of different sizes, which add up to nine. It seems like a large number, and this function, if true, would be a priceless treasure!
But how long does it take for it to mature?
And if we pick the peaches when they are ripe, will there be new peaches?
Yu Xiangan didn't know.
She tried pouring some spiritual spring water and accelerating water drops, but it was useless. Or, even if it worked, the change was only very slight and could not be seen by the naked eye. If this spiritual peach takes a very long time to grow, just like the spiritual fruits in the cultivation novels that take a hundred years to bloom, a hundred years to bear fruit, and a hundred years to mature, then if she wants to wait for this peach, won't she have to wait until she is almost turned into ashes?
This is a problem.
Yu Xiangan had no use for the things he had before, such as beef, mutton, various fruits and soybeans. Apart from eating them himself, most of them were kept in the warehouse. As he had no use for them, he was not so diligent in earning experience. Now it seems that he still needs to make the best use of them. Now that Lingtao has appeared, what will it be if he upgrades it later?
Moreover, this area should be a paradise on earth. The place where trees grow is definitely not an ordinary place. They feel that the air here is fresher. By comparison, breathing here is more comfortable and more refreshing.
Yu Xiangan: "Although the warehouse can still be used, some things have been there for too long and should be cleared out. We need to make full use of the farm and gain experience."
Some fresh meat and fruits in the warehouse are taken to the processing workshop and made into beef jerky, beef sauce, and various processed foods, ready to be taken out when the opportunity arises.
Lin Chuanbai nodded. This was a game farm. He could harvest and sow seeds with just one click. It didn't take much effort. He also hoped to see the next upgrade as soon as possible. He wondered what kind of good thing it would be.
Lin Chuanbai also came to help with the processing. They couldn't reveal that these things were made by the two of them, so they specially adjusted the recipe so that if someone familiar ate it, they wouldn't suspect them.
Lin Chuanbai was still thinking about whether he could analyze the components of the spiritual peach when it was ripe, and then copy it. If he could, he would definitely have no shortage of money, and it would also benefit the world.
However, Lin Chuanbai estimated that it would be very risky.
He also wanted to figure out the mystery of the spiritual spring water, but was forced to give up because there was no progress. The test results showed that the water had more trace elements, and nothing else could be seen. However, its effect was there. The wine and soy sauce brewed with spiritual spring water tasted better, and their bodies were in good health. It must be the effect of the spring water.
Both husband and wife burst out with the motivation to gain experience. They also tried to put other things around the peach tree, such as top-quality jade, diamonds, gems, etc., to see if any of them might contain spiritual energy to accelerate the growth of the spiritual peach tree, or to see if placing them here could give back and make these jade and gems more outstanding.
Lin Chuanbai also made something equivalent to a nutrient for peach trees, and applied it around the roots from a distance to see if it worked.
The changes are still invisible to the naked eye, making them nervous, not knowing whether they are good or bad.
This can only be left to time.
Chen Xiaoyang and his colleagues received a number of employee benefits - holiday gift packages.
The packaging is nice and the contents are affordable.
There are beef jerky, wine, dried tofu, etc., as well as some fresh fruits.
There are meat, fruits, and red wine. This red wine is so fashionable.
As for Chen Xiaoyang, because food was precious, she had only drunk alcohol no more than five times, and all of them were rice wine or multi-grain wine brewed by herself. She had never drunk red wine. It was said that the person who distributed the welfare said that red wine was good for women and could beautify the skin.
Chen Xiaoyang: “!!!”
Such a great one!
She brought the gift package back intact. After her mother received it, she immediately placed it in the middle of their table and then went out. Without asking, Chen Xiaoyang knew that she was going to show off to others, and soon a large group of people would come to visit.
Some people will praise, some people will want to share a little. Her mother is now concerned about her reputation, so she will take out a part like cutting meat, and then regret it afterwards. Chen Xiaoyang is already very familiar with this routine.
So after her mother left, she left right after her. If she stayed at home any longer, she would never have any peace and quiet.
She walked on the road, which was a flat concrete road that led all the way to the foot of the bamboo mountain.
The people in their village are very protective of this road.
As she walked, she followed the road all the way to Zhushan. At the intersection at the foot of the mountain, there was an old man sitting in the shade and taking a nap. He was the mountain ranger.
To prevent ignorant children from entering and causing trouble, and also to prevent bad people from causing damage, there is a gong next to it. If anything happens, just strike it and people nearby will come over.
There's nothing we can do, the other person has a criminal record for this matter.
The village next to them did not have a bamboo mountain, and they were jealous of the comfortable life that their village lived with the bamboo mountain. They said they would come here to cut bamboo to make a fence. They agreed. As a result, when they came here to cut bamboo, the bamboo forest caught fire. Fortunately, they discovered it early and the loss was not great.
But it also makes everyone feel painful.
After that, after everyone discussed it, they let the old men and women who couldn't do heavy work come here to kill time, and if there was any situation, they could just shout.
At their age, they basically cannot do any farm work, so coming here does not interfere with their work. They can make bamboo baskets, bamboo strips and other handicrafts here while watching people coming in and out.
The old man guarding the door heard the noise, opened his eyes, saw Chen Xiaoyang, and showed his old yellow teeth, which were only a few left. "Xiaoyang, you're home."
He squatted down and took out a small cage from behind a worn stool. "This is the bamboo rat we caught. Take it home and ask your mother to make you a dish."
People in their village now protect the bamboo forest and will find ways to catch bamboo rats when they see them.
Chen Xiaoyang waved his hand, "Uncle, I can't accept that."
Uncle: "Xiaoyang, take it home. Why are you being so polite to me? Take it, take it."
This is something without foundation.
Their village is making a lot of money now. This bamboo mountain is a treasure. First they sell bamboo shoots, then bamboo and various bamboo products, all of which are collected from Xiaoyang's boss.
His family received a lot of dividends last year, and they are saving some to build a house.
Chen Xiaoyang tried to refuse, but finally gave in.
Chen Xiaoyang could only turn back with the bamboo rat. On the way back, he saw a few half-grown boys walking towards him from the path with buckets in their hands, laughing and giggling. They were all wet, with no shoes on their feet, and there was some mud on their feet that had not been wiped off.
It seemed that they went to some stream or pond to catch fish. When the boys saw Chen Xiaoyang, the leading one bent down, took out the empty small basin next to him, and put two fish in it: "Sister Xiaoyang, take these fish back to make soup."
Chen Xiaoyang refused three times: "No, I won't accept it, I won't take it, you can divide it among yourselves."
But the other person was laughing. Seeing that she was holding the bamboo rat, with only one hand free, and it was a bit difficult to hold the basin with one hand, he ran forward quickly, shouting, "Sister Xiaoyang, I'll help you take it back to your home."
Chen Xiaoyang also shouted, "I said no, you can take it home. It's not easy to catch a few fish, go back and replenish your nutrition."
The other party ran farther and farther away: "It's okay, it's okay, I'll go next time, Sister Xiaoyang, don't push it, I'm going to give it to you, so that my mother won't scold me when I go back." Otherwise, if someone saw him going to fish in such a mess, even if he brought the fish back, he would be punished. But if he said that he gave the fish to Sister Xiaoyang, then his mother would not beat him.
Chen Xiaoyang: “…”
So annoying and funny.
This is using her as a shield.
The more people in their village benefit, the more grateful they are to her as their leader.
Chen Xiaoyang felt really embarrassed for having taken advantage of many people like this. Although she would return gifts during the Chinese New Year and other festivals, she actually didn't do anything.
But because of this reason, her mother no longer scolded her for finding a partner. I guess she has come to terms with it. Hahaha, this is really a happy thing.
If you want to find a partner, of course you should find someone you like and who also likes you. Only then will your life be hopeful.
When she slowly returned home with the bamboo rat, there was no one else at home. Her mother sat on the stool with a pained look on her face, looking at the opened gift box. Chen Xiaoyang took a look and thought, fortunately, the red wine was still there, and the others could be given away. She had money and she could buy them too.
In addition to distributing part of the money as employee benefits, part of it was given to primary schools and part to orphanages.
The locations were dispersed, and a lot of the old inventory was cleared out. The vacant positions would soon be slowly filled by Yu Xiangan and Lin Chuanbai...
Lin Yining successfully became Shi Changtian's apprentice. Her calligraphy showed the effort she had put in before. After the test, Shi Changtian was very satisfied and accepted this little disciple. Then Lin Yining was assigned a thick list of books. For each of the books on Shi Changtian's list, Lin Yining had to write a review and submit several pages of large characters every day. Lin Yining felt both pain and happiness.
The pain is naturally pain. The relaxed days she had worked so hard to get in college are gone. The happiness is that she can see her own progress. Listening to a word from a teacher is better than reading for ten years. No wonder so many people want to be famous teachers.
She was also taken to meet her senior brothers and sisters. These people have basically achieved success and fame, and the youngest one has also graduated from graduate school. Now Lin Yining has become a junior sister and has received many gifts. These are her future connections.
When Li Yujiao knew this: "..."
The old man is so biased. Why didn’t he find such a teacher for Tiandong?
She complained after turning off the lights, but was directly refuted by Lin Houpu: "How long have my dad and Teacher Shi known each other? They didn't know each other before Tiandong went to college. As for Tiandong's major, my dad didn't know anyone at that time. How can you ask him to introduce me?"
Lin Houpu knew his father's character. If he had known someone in this field before, he would definitely help Tiandong to make connections. He was a man who hoped that his descendants would all be successful.
And this is his father, so no matter which daughter-in-law gave birth to the child, he has his blood.
If it would be better for Tiandong, he would not sit idly by.
Before Li Yujiao could say anything, Lin Houpu changed the subject, "Have you and your daughter-in-law always had a bad relationship? Someone told me that you two were fighting each other? What's going on? Didn't you promise me that you would treat her well? How can I put my face down like this?"
When he married the girl, he said everything nicely, but now she acts like a stepmother, which makes him feel embarrassed to appear in front of his old comrades.
Li Yujiao remained silent now.
Lin Houpu's tone became more serious, "Didn't you hear what I said?"
Li Yujiao turned over angrily, with her back to him, "I'm the mother-in-law, can't I have some opinions about my daughter-in-law? Which mother-in-law is as aggrieved as me? I didn't do anything to her, so am I starving her or treating her coldly?"
Lin Houpu was so angry that he laughed, "What if my daughter-in-law is left hungry and cold? What era do you think we are in?"
Are they short of something to eat or something to wear now?
Besides, their daughter-in-law has her own job and doesn't rely on them.
Lin Houpu's tone became more serious: "If you continue like this, I will find a way to keep them apart. It will be hard for them to see each other. Then you won't find fault with me again."
Li Yujiao suddenly turned over and sat up, "Why are you like this? Is it okay? I know it, isn't it?"
Li Yujiao felt a sharp pain in her chest.
Is there any mother-in-law whose life is as difficult as hers?
I wanted to teach my daughter-in-law a lesson, but there was resistance everywhere.
…
Lin Yining often leaves early and comes back late, and he is not seen on weekends. This week was no exception. When Lin Yining returned home, his roommate asked him, "Are you dating someone? Did you go to meet your lover on the weekend?"
Lin Yining said innocently, "If there really is one, I will definitely bring him here for you to see. Don't worry."
The students in their dormitory have a good relationship with each other, and their family backgrounds are all decent. They also have many similar ideas. This can be called fate.
Not to mention how beautiful the four girls in the dormitory are, they all have their own characteristics, and the worst one can be described as pretty and cute. As for being the provincial or municipal top student, that is too common.
There is a lack of everything except academic geniuses. Every year, the students who come in are the top scorers from somewhere.
They come from four different places, and there are four top scorers in the imperial examination.
The same goes for Lin Yihong. He and his sister both won the top spot in the province in both liberal arts and science.
The bonuses of all sizes from the school and local government made them a small fortune.
Lin Yining put the bag down: "Come, let's eat."
"What?"
"We have milk tea, cold chicken feet, cold noodles, and pancakes."
Looking at this pile of things, everyone was happy and worried.
"...It smells so good...ah...you brought some more food back. If this continues, our weight will skyrocket."
Lin Yining touched his stomach, feeling both pain and happiness. "I went to my second uncle's place. You see, I brought back a lot of food. I ate a lot too. I can't take it anymore. I have to run two more laps tomorrow. Who of you wants to run with me?"
Looking at the pile of food, the other people couldn't help themselves and stretched out their right hands, "Let's go together tomorrow and eat all the extra food we ate today!"
Who doesn’t love beauty?
Being too thin or too fat is not good. I prefer the type that is slim but not too fat.
While eating these things, someone howled with happiness, "During the past two days when you were away, we ate a lot of delicious food in the dormitory. The old man's family sent us some dried meat and other things, and we also gave a lot to people in nearby dormitories."
There are four people in their dormitory. The eldest is the dormitory head. She is from the northwest and her family has many cattle and sheep. The second child is from the southernmost part of the country and her family always sends seafood. The third child is from a province in the central part of the country that likes spicy food and her specialty is hot sauce. Lin Yining is the youngest and is more than a month older than the third child.
Lin Yining was very unwilling to accept this. With just over a month left, she became the youngest.
While eating, the eldest brother said: "By the way, you were not here. Someone was looking for you these two days. It was a male classmate."
The boss smiled meaningfully, "He looks quite handsome, a bit like a movie star. Is he your potential target?"
Lin Yining tilted his head: "Who is it?"
Boss: "His name is Zhang Da. He looked for you twice, but I said you were not there."
Lin Yining thought for a moment, "I think I saw him when I went to take a class, but I don't have much impression of him. Does he look like a celebrity? No."
The second brother has a childhood sweetheart who grew up with him, but now they are in different places. Seeing Lin Yining like this, he knows that there is no hope for them. "I think he thinks it's impossible. Although, I still think our Yining deserves to find a better partner."
Most people feel that the cabbages are really being eaten by pigs.
Lin Yining shrugged, "Didn't you say he looks a bit like a celebrity? I have very high standards. If you want to attract me, I think you have to look like a celebrity. After all, I also have a celebrity face. He is with a beautiful woman, and I also want to be with a handsome guy." Lin Yining boasted "shamelessly".
The other three people said in unison: "Bah! Shame on you!"
“Hahahaha…” The four people in the dormitory laughed together.
The third child: "This is the truth. I don't want anyone who is not good-looking. I am not bad looking either, sister."
The eldest brother: "That's right, there must be a tall person, at least taller than me, such as the youngest's brother. If he is from our school, I will definitely pursue him and let the youngest call you sister-in-law!"
Lin Yining proudly said: "There are too many people who want to be my sister-in-law, just wait in line."
The third brother chuckled, "Compared to your brother, I prefer your dad's type. Can you recommend a younger, single version? I'm curious about your mom, she must be a beauty as well."
Lin Yining couldn't help but rolled his eyes: "Go look for it in your dreams, dreams have everything, of course my mother is a beauty, otherwise look at me, how could I give birth to such a beautiful child."
When the school started, everyone was reserved and polite to each other, and they were all ladies, but now you can no longer see that.
Lin Yining had a very wonderful life in the dormitory, but Lin Yihong's life was relatively dull.
Classes and training, classes and training, back and forth all in the school.
It's a rare opportunity to go out, and everyone is like a happy husky, jumping around outside. They don't care to stay anywhere but just don't want to go back to school early.
Those who have girlfriends would sit in front of the phone booth, holding the phone and unwilling to let go, and all the pocket money they had saved would be used to pay for the phone bills.
Lin Yihong is a loner. He has no girlfriend and basically has no chance of finding one here.
Wang Lipan and he are in the same boat.
Yu Xiangan and Lin Chuanbai are Lingtao's biological parents. They have been watching Lingtao for a while, and the changes are minimal, so they have become more indifferent to it now.
It doesn't look like it will mature in a short period of time, but there's nothing we can do about it. We just have to live our lives as usual, but we have to go in once or twice a day to check on the changes.
Then take care of the output of things in the space.
After diverting some of their attention, the two of them sent things to the twins.
There are food, useful things, and many books.
Before their attention shifted, Yu Qingshan looked at his daughter and son-in-law strangely.
He looked at them with a pause in his words. Even at their old age, their daughter and son-in-law would still come out of the room looking tired.
Aren’t they going into the room for a nap?
Why does it look like he went to work in the fields?
You still want to have another child, right? It is indeed possible at this age, but isn't this what they said before about advanced maternal age?
Older mothers are not safe.
He seemed to want to say something but stopped himself, and then quietly added some kidney-tonifying foods to the menu at home.
Lin Chuanbai: “…………”
Yu Xiangan: “…………”
You misunderstood, they really went to work in the fields.
After entering a space, one will think of the other space more frequently than before. Unlike Yu Xiangan's game farm where one can harvest and sow with one click, Lin Chuanbai's medicine garden relies entirely on manual work.
Real labor.
We have machines now, but what kind of machines can be used to grow medicinal herbs?
Only some medicinal materials can do this, but most of them require careful attention, and mechanization is simply not realistic.
This is another reason why they are both in such good health. They have been working in the fields, eating well, and exercising enough, so naturally their bodies are better.
After all, I can't delegate this to others, I have to do it myself.
Yu Mansheng felt that his health was not as good as before. He often drank with others and accepted everyone who came to him at the dinner table. He drank too much, and he didn't pay as much attention to body management as before. Slowly, he got out of shape and had a beer belly of neither big nor small.
Lu Anran was very determined about this, "I've signed you up for a gym."
Yu Mansheng: “…”
In fact, among his peers who do business with him, his figure is quite good.
Lu Anran: "I don't care. If your body gets too out of shape, I won't want to see you. I'm too embarrassed to see you."
Yu Mansheng felt like his heart was stabbed by a knife.
He looked at Lin Chuanbai sadly, focusing on his belly, "Brother-in-law, why don't you have any?"
Lin Chuanbai laughed, "I have abdominal muscles, why don't you have them?"
Lu Anran looked at Yu Xiangan with envy. Their conversation just now was deliberately funny, but now when she heard Lin Chuanbai say that he also had abdominal muscles, she was really envious.
"Brother-in-law, how do you stay in shape? My sister keeps it in good shape too, but I haven't seen you go to the gym, or do you exercise at home?" Lu Anran couldn't help pinching her belly. Her figure was actually a little out of shape.
This is the result of her emphasis on self-control, otherwise she would have gained even more weight.
Yu Xiangan's weight is a little lighter than before. As for why... Yu Xiangan knows the reason. It's because they have been working harder on farming during this period.
No one else knew the reason, so Yu Xiangan nodded and said, "Maybe I've been overusing my brain recently. I think exercising at home is a good idea. Find an empty room and renovate it. Isn't it a gym? You don't have to go somewhere else to exercise."
Lu Anran knew what Yu Xiangan was busy with during this period, and she almost got involved.
Yu Xiangan bought a piece of land at a high price, planning to build a high-end residential area, half villas and half houses.
In the 1990s, of course, she had to seize the opportunity of soaring real estate prices. Yu Xiangan had previously invested in real estate projects, but this time she was going big, and she spent millions on the land alone.
