Chapter 148: Cultivating a Medicinal Field
Xue hesitated for a long time, went to the door, lifted the curtain and took a look before turning back.
She whispered, "Mom, I think Cang'er and Xiao Lingyun get along very well, very easily."
"When Nuannuan and Cang'er are together, it's like... business as usual."
The old lady frowned and said, "Are you saying that Xiao Lingyun and Cang'er are too close? Maybe it's because he feels relieved when he has Yun'er's face on him."
Xue suddenly realized and nodded, "Yeah, that makes sense."
"But...but she is a girl after all. What if she falls in love with him?"
The old lady was also in a dilemma because this kind of thing could happen.
Finally, she shook her head and said, "Forget it. Young people have their own way of getting along with each other. Let's not think too much about it."
"You think it's Nuannuan's fault that Cang'er can't have an heir, but Xiao Lingyun is also from a good family. Wouldn't it be unfair to her if she were with him?"
"You and I have both been through this. Blind marriages are unstable. Only true love can last forever."
Xue sighed, "Yes, his father and I...were in love with each other..."
The old lady nodded and said again: "Well, don't think too much, just take it one step at a time."
Mrs. Xue felt that her worries were unnecessary. Nuannuan was not the kind of little girl who was ignorant of the world. She knew what she was doing and did not need her, her mother-in-law, to tell her what to do.
Xiao Lingyun and Cang'er should just have a master-servant relationship, so don't think of it as something dirty.
The old lady asked, "Is Nuannuan going to the greenhouse again?"
Xue nodded, "Yes, she needs to watch the fire and then tidy up the vegetable garden."
The old lady frowned and said, "This girl will be exhausted from working day and night. You should try to persuade her when you have time."
Xue nodded, "I'll go right away."
As she spoke, she stood up, walked to the door, took the cloak from the rack and put it on.
I went to the door of the greenhouse and started knocking, "Nuannuan."
Su Nuan was watering the vegetables in the greenhouse. When she heard the sound, she went to open the door.
"Mom, why don't you take a rest?"
Xue took the bucket from her hand and said, "You tell me how to water the plants. I'll do it."
Su Nuan didn't stop him and pointed at the vegetable patch and said, "There are ridges in the vegetable patch. Use a ladle to sprinkle a finger-thick stream of water to water it evenly."
Xue nodded, "Okay, why not water it during the day?"
Su Nuan responded, "After all, we're not connected to the ground. The water won't disperse quickly enough. Watering during the day will cause water to accumulate and rot the roots."
Xue nodded and accepted the advice humbly.
After watering the plants, Xue pulled Su Nuan to sit on the bed and said, "Nuan Nuan, you've been working all day and night, you must be exhausted. I'll come to look after the greenhouse at night."
Su Nuan quickly shook her head, "No, Mom, you have to take care of the elderly and children during the day and cook, and you can't get enough rest at night."
"I'm just watering the plants, nothing else to do. The rest of the time I'll just sleep. And there's another benefit to being here."
Xue asked puzzledly, "What's the benefit?"
Su Nuan chuckled, "No need to listen to the snoring."
Xue chuckled. After all, the room was not soundproof and there were many people sleeping there. The sounds of breathing and turning over would affect sleep.
"Okay, I'll go back then. You should get some rest early."
Su Nuan nodded, "Okay, I'll sleep when I'm tired. I don't have anything to do anyway."
Xue stood up and said, "Yeah."
After seeing Xue off, Su Nuan quickly watered the vegetable garden. She locked the door and entered the space.
A lot of precious medicinal herbs were collected during the day. Although the warehouse has the function of preserving them, I feel uncomfortable leaving the herbs lying around.
She found some empty boxes to store the medicinal herbs, keeping the ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum fresh so that she could say they were freshly dug when she sold them in the future.
However, the ginseng on the cliff is old but not big in size. If you don’t find someone who knows its value, you can’t sell it for a good price.
The Space Spirit asked, "Why don't you plant these herbs?"
Su Nuan was stunned. "Planting?"
She slapped her forehead and said, "Yes, the herbs we collected are all fresh and their roots are intact, so why can't we plant them?"
But……
"Will it be eaten by the animals in the space?"
The space spirit said, "Xiaobai and Yunyue can't go out in winter, are you going to let them eat dry food?"
"And the baboons, they have nothing to do now, so they have to find something to do."
Su Nuan nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, you are absolutely right."
She ran out immediately, but saw that the land around the wooden house had been planted with various things, and there was no space left to plant a medicinal field.
Finally she shifted her gaze to the pasture area, which seemed to be compressible.
Seeing Su Nuan looking here and there, the space spirit asked, "What are you looking at?"
Su Nuan took out a sickle and said, "Clear out some grass land, otherwise there will be no place to plant medicinal herbs."
The space spirit was speechless. Pointing at a cabbage patch, he asked, "Wouldn't it be fine if we just harvested those?"
The cabbage field is half an acre in size, and the cabbages are divided into three crops: large, medium and small. The large ones can be harvested, otherwise they will grow seeds.
Su Nuan nodded, "Yeah, pick the cabbage."
After saying that, she walked to the cabbage field and started cleaning.
The space spirit asked in confusion: "Why don't you pick the big ones? Why are you picking these small ones?"
Su Nuan replied: "Boil them in a pot and eat them. The big ones will be saved for seeds."
Space Spirit, "..." This is so that you can pick whatever you want to eat.
Su Nuan cleaned up the cabbage field and rearranged the land before planting the medicinal herbs.
"I don't know if these medicinal herbs growing on the cliff can adapt to the land."
The space spirit chuckled, "Why? You've always been eating vegetables and tofu, but you can't eat meat or fish?"
Su Nuan nodded, "I really can't eat it. It will give me diarrhea."
The space spirit was speechless, and after a long while, he squeezed out three words, "I can't die."
Su Nuan planted the medicinal herbs and sprinkled some river water.
She also built a bamboo fence around the medicinal field to mark the boundary.
Yunyue and her three children sat obediently beside the medicinal field. The three little ones tilted their heads left and right, and they couldn't understand what was going on.
Su Nuan looked around, frowned and said, "Where's Xiaobai?"
Yunyue looked up.
Su Nuan looked up suspiciously, only to see a white cloud falling from the sky. Then everything went dark before her eyes, and she felt like her internal organs were about to be squeezed out.
Xiaobai's roar was full of confusion, "Roar... Roar?" Where is the master?
Su Nuan said angrily: "Move your claws away."
Xiaobai lowered his head and raised his foot, finally seeing Su Nuan embedded in the grass.
It quickly jumped to the side, "Awooo?" Why are you under my feet?
Su Nuan relaxed for a while before getting up. When she raised her hand to slap him, she found that this was not Xiaobai at all.
"What did you eat to grow so big?"
Originally, when Xiaobai stood on all fours, his limbs only reached his knees, but now he only reaches his chest.
Su Nuan suddenly remembered that Xiaobai could transform freely, and said angrily: "Shrink it for me."
Xiaobai had no choice but to shrink, and finally recovered to below Su Nuan's knees, looking like a big cat.
Su Nuan picked up Xiaobai and rubbed it for a while. After it became smaller, its fur became soft and would not cut her hands.
"When it gets warmer, you can go out and act like a housecat for me."
Xiaobai purred comfortably, completely unconcerned about Su Nuan's clutches.
The space spirit said, "We didn't find anything with energy this time. You can go look behind the cliff next time."
Su Nuan shook her head. "It would take too much time for me to climb up and down, and I'm not sure if what we need is on the other side."
The Space Spirit suddenly clapped his hands and said, "I got it. I have a solution."
