Chapter 51 Vegetable Harvest
Chen Xingheng, who was preparing brunch on the first floor, suddenly shuddered, then slowly closed his eyes, tilted his head back slightly, and then his breathing became heavier and heavier.
Suddenly he opened his eyes, went to the sink, adjusted the water temperature, turned on the water, and splashed a handful of water on his face.
When Gu Qing came downstairs, she saw Chen Xingheng carrying out the prepared food. After placing the food on the table, he turned around and stared intently at Gu Qing.
Gu Qing looked at the stray hairs on his forehead, which were wet and clumped together. "What's wrong? The kitchen ventilation system is broken. If that's the case, why did you insist on cooking yourself? It's just too much trouble."
As she spoke, she walked up to him and reached out to brush her wet hair.
Chen Xingheng pulled her into his arms and lowered his head to give her a deep kiss on her cherry lips. He didn't let her go until Gu Qing went limp from lack of oxygen.
Gu Qing's eyes were watery and dreamy. Chen Xingheng couldn't help but peck her lips twice more. If you keep teasing me like this, I won't be able to get out of bed again.
Gu Qing felt wronged; she hadn't done anything. She had dressed quite conservatively to cover the marks on her body, so how could she have aroused this person's malicious intent?
Seeing her aggrieved look, Chen Xingheng couldn't help but kiss her again, then smiled and said, "What were you doing upstairs? No, wait, what were you doing with that big oaf?"
Gu Qing glanced back at the tiger lying on its side on the ground, holding Xiao Yunduo in its arms. As if she had thought of something, she quickly turned her head back to look at Chen Xingheng's waist and abdomen.
Chen Xingheng covered her eyes with his large hands and brought his mouth close to her ear. "Baby, I'll give you two choices: either eat your food and fill your own stomach, or come upstairs with me and fill my stomach."
Gu Qing quickly slipped out of his embrace and sat down at the dining table. "Oh dear, I'm so hungry, so hungry!"
Chen Xingheng knew she must be hungry, which is why he suppressed his desires. Who knew this guy would flirt without even realizing it?
He sighed inwardly. He hadn't cared about Gu Qing's level before, but now he realized he still needed to level up.
After finishing their meal, Gu Qing pulled Chen Xingheng to the planting shed. Little Cloud naturally followed to be purified, while the pitiful white tiger pressed its head tightly against the door.
Chen Xingheng was afraid that it would damage the plants here, and even more afraid that it would aggravate the pollution of these plants, since the white tiger was a source of pollution for them.
Gu Qing first checked the condition of the plants, then evolved them one by one. She also pulled out a few mutated grasses. These things are very tenacious. As long as there is a root, they will grow back in a short time.
It rapidly consumes nutrients from the soil and accumulates pollutants from the surrounding area.
"These vegetables should be edible now, right?" Chen Xingheng was pulling out the weeds from the vegetables.
Gu Qing glanced at it and said, "Okay, let's put these vegetables away." She then took out two large energy boxes.
You need to carefully pull out the roots of the vegetables, and only by keeping the roots intact can you preserve them, making them less susceptible to contamination and less likely to lose energy.
Wearing special gloves, the two pulled out the vegetables, shook off the soil, removed any bad leaves, and put them into the energy box.
Gu Qing's purification was very timely; the vegetables were still bright green, unlike the dark green of those in the wild, which appeared when the outer leaves were peeled off.
A rich, refreshing aroma spread out, even better than the organic vegetables she ate in modern times, perhaps because the vegetables absorbed the energy of this world.
Once the energy box is full, replace it with another one. After filling four energy boxes, there aren't many left, so put them in a basket and cook them in a little while.
The seed that was planted with the greens but not recorded grew to the same height as the greens and appeared to be a climbing plant.
One was slender and tall, but looked underdeveloped.
Gu Qing took photos of the two plants for her records and planned to look them up when she got back. However, judging from how slowly they grew, their grade must be quite high.
The autumn fruit has already begun to form flower buds; the surface of the medicinal material has only darkened in color, with little other change.
I sprinkled an active agent on the two harvested plots and added a layer of nutrient soil. As for what to plant, I'll check when I get back today and plant it tomorrow.
"Xingheng, this plot of land is probably for vines. Go to the storage room and see if there's anything we can use to build a trellis?"
"Okay, leave it to me." He was spreading nutrient soil and didn't look up, but he agreed readily.
"Qingqing, are you tired? You should go inside and rest. Leave the rest to me."
"I'm going back now. Be careful. I'll go back and save the photos I just took, and then I'll check what the plants on those two plots are."
Chen Xingheng's hands were covered in mud, so he didn't hug her anymore. He watched her carry the small basket out, go inside, and hand the basket to the robot butler.
After explaining what to do, she went back to her room to wash up, changed into her pajamas, and went downstairs to sit on the sofa.
First, she saved the file, and then she started searching for the actual item by comparing the photos. When Chen Xingheng came in, she was still looking. "Aren't you tired of looking?"
Gu Qing whimpered and tried to throw herself into his arms, but Chen Xingheng simply pointed a finger at her forehead to stop her. "I'm covered in medicine, dirt, and ash, why are you going to throw yourself on me?"
"Ah! You still dare to touch my head with your fingers." Gu Qing turned around to go wash up, but her collar was grabbed again.
"Grandma, you forgot, I was wearing gloves while working." Even as he said this, he still took a wet wipe from the coffee table and handed it to her.
Then she went to wash up and change her clothes.
After wiping her forehead, Gu Qing sat on the sofa, opened her smart device, and looked at the previous page, feeling somewhat discouraged.
A moment later, a warm body pressed against her. "What's wrong? Haven't you found it yet?"
"Mmm, I'm so tired my eyes feel blurry." She snuggled into his arms and found a comfortable spot to curl up.
"How about posting an update? It's better to brainstorm than to just look at it all by yourself."
As Chen Xingheng spoke, he licked her earlobe.
