The two returned home, and as soon as the food was set on the table, they took off their shoes and sat down on the kang (a heated brick bed).
Qiao Haisheng circled around them; the two children had come back together.
"Did you go out together?"
Qiao Xiaoni nodded, "He was worried about me going alone, so he followed behind us."
Li Meihua nudged Qiao Haisheng with her elbow, signaling him to mind his own business. Her daughter was already engaged to him, so he shouldn't interfere in other people's affairs.
Qiao Haisheng didn't say anything more. He had just asked casually, and perhaps everyone was overthinking it.
The meat I braised this morning was slightly heated in the pot before being sliced and placed on a plate. It will be the only meat dish for tonight.
Perhaps it's because everyone has been eating too much meat lately, so they're not eating much and prefer two plates of vegetables.
Li Meihua swallowed the food in her mouth. "I didn't expect this vegetable to taste so good when stir-fried. I'll plant some in the field next spring."
I used to think Xiaofen was growing cilantro! I only realized it wasn't when I grew up.
Qiao Haisheng said, "This vegetable is good whether you cook it in hot pot or stir-fry it. I think we should plant it in a larger plot of land in the backyard next year. It seems easy to grow and doesn't require much effort."
The hot pot business is booming, and Qiao Xiaoni has taken over the chrysanthemum greens that Lin Guifen grows. She can go to the yard to cut them whenever she wants. She uses two large bundles every day. There aren't that many vegetables, so she tries to use them sparingly every day. Even so, they won't last for many days.
With the autumn harvest approaching, I can feel the chill in the air when I go out in the mornings these past few days.
These past few nights, Qiao Xiaoni has been going back to her space to take a shower and only comes out after her hair is dry.
Mo Mo has not left the cave and is up to no avail. She did not go to Shandong to disturb her.
Last night she tried it out, and the land in the space could be used to grow vegetables. The growth rate was extremely fast. After the seeds were thrown in, they sprouted and grew rapidly. In the time it took to eat an apple, the vegetables could be harvested.
Unfortunately, no matter how fast they grow, she can't sell them for money, because the vegetables she grows are imbued with spiritual energy, and they taste much better than vegetables from outside. She's already tried cooking them in her spatial dimension. There are many experts in the world, and no one can guarantee they won't make a mistake, so it's best to be cautious.
However, it was fine to give it to her family. She secretly took a few bunches and put them in her room, planning to give them to her family in a day or two, saying that they were vegetables picked from the backyard, and to see how everyone reacted first.
After dinner, Li Meihua wouldn't let them clean up the kitchen; she cleaned it up by herself.
Qiao Xiaoni and Tao Chunfang were exhausted after a long day, so they didn't argue with her and went back to their room to rest.
After lying down for more than an hour and waiting for everyone to fall asleep, Qiao Xiaoni closed the door and went back to her space. Fortunately, there was a door inside the room, which she locked so that no one could get in.
The fatigue vanished the moment I entered the space, and I felt much more energetic. I thought about the peach pit I planted in the ground yesterday, which had just sprouted when I left. I wondered what was going on with it now.
When I arrived at the place where I planted the peach tree last night, I was taken aback by the scene before me. The huge peach tree was about the size of my house, and it was full of peaches, the bright red color of which looked very tempting.
There must be at least a thousand pounds of fruit on this peach tree. The space has changed so much overnight! I was so excited that I picked a peach from the tree. It was all-natural and pollution-free. I took a bite without washing it. It was sweet and delicious.
