In front of Fusu was a small flower basket. Ying Zheng glanced at it casually and thought it was quite exquisite. Inside were long, red roots, which seemed to be what the Jade Rabbit had eaten before.
Could it be the celestial fruit eaten by the Jade Rabbit? A thought flashed through Ying Zheng's mind.
Upon discovering his father's arrival, Fusu hurriedly rose to pay his respects, but Ying Zheng helped him up.
"Did the Jade Rabbit come with the Moon Goddess? Why wasn't I informed to welcome her?"
"Hmph," the Jade Rabbit slurped up the meat hanging from its mouth and said with a smug look:
"Chang Xi didn't come. This Jade Rabbit ran away from home and won't even let me eat meat. I'll just scare him a little."

He wasn't making things up; carrots are indeed very nutritious and can provide a lot of vitamins.
Ying Zheng: "Can it be planted in the mortal world?" He decided that if it could be planted, he would do anything to make it grow.
"Of course, these are seeds from the mortal realm. Chang Xi said that after improving them, one acre can yield 1,500 catties."
Ying Zheng's pupils dilated violently...
