Chapter 310 Ding Dapang, Growing Herbs Doesn't Require Cow Dung
Xu Bai scratched his head: "Huh?"
"Big sister, how did you know?"
Xu Bai was a little confused. He remembered that he had mentioned it to Sang Sang. How did his older sister know?
Tu Yao said in a serious tone: "Because you said it before."
"Did I tell you?"
Tu Yao nodded firmly: "I did."
Xu Bai took a moment to process it, then nodded absentmindedly. Okay, so that means I already said that.
Tu Yao continued, "Is it a very good piece of land?"
At this point, Xu Bai immediately got angry, threw down the dog leash, and said indignantly, "Big sister, that's truly a piece of land that has never been seen before or since!"
"Did you know that there's an undeveloped hot spring just one kilometer away? It's humid, the temperature is just right, not too hot or too cold—it's practically a treasure trove!"
"My dad had just taken the picture, and I went to ask for it right afterward, but he absolutely refused!"
"As soon as I left, my uncle went to ask for it back, and guess what!"
Xu Baiqi said angrily, "My dad gave it to him right away!"
"I must have been found!"
Tu Yao confirmed again, "You mean high humidity, neither cold nor hot?"
Xu Bai nodded haphazardly: "Yes."
He had originally planned to grow button mushrooms.
That plot of land is not only in a good location, but although the climate is not suitable for button mushrooms, the terrain is flat, so he can completely improve the mushroom house.
As he spoke, he subconsciously glanced at Tu Yao, and a thought suddenly popped into his head.
...I wonder if my older sister would ask my uncle for that piece of land, and if he would give it to her.
They'll definitely give it to me, right?
Then he asked his older sister for it?
As he was thinking this, he looked down and met Langya's menacing gaze, and immediately shuddered.
Never mind...
Xu Bai looked up again, "Big sister, don't worry, I guarantee I'll deliver Wolf Fang safely!"
Tu Yao snapped out of her daze and nodded: "Then I'll leave it to you!"
Xu Bai chuckled: "Big sister, are there any other tasks besides this? Sangsang and I can do anything!"
Tu Yao blinked, looked at him, and shook her head. "No, that's all."
"That's all, Xiaobai. You and Sangsang can go do your own things too."
Xu Bai was taken aback, and then became somewhat anxious.
"Big sister, what happened? What about the orphanage? Langya is being sent back, so he can't play with the kids anymore. Sangsang and I can fill in!"
"Besides, you must be so bored all by yourself in the orphanage. We can keep you company!"
Tu Yao couldn't help but laugh.
"You have already helped me a lot."
She looked at the young man in front of her. Compared to four years ago, his skin was a shade darker, and he looked more capable and brave.
The young man who used to chase after her, clamoring to help her, actually persisted and worked hard to grow button mushrooms for four years.
"Besides, I won't be at the welfare home for a while."
...
The entrance to Xianhe Village was packed with people early in the morning.
Seeing a truck steadily driving by in the distance, Luo Meili, who was standing at the front, quickly took two steps forward.
"They're here! Little Mao's herbs have arrived!"
Yesterday, as soon as Luo Meili got home, she received a message from Lin Yue saying that Tu Yao had a batch of herbs to send back for planting.
She blurted it out to her third aunt, and soon the whole village knew.
Several boxes of herbs were carefully unloaded from the truck, their packaging removed, and Lin Yue compared them one by one with the pictures taken yesterday before the transport. After confirming that there were no changes, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Aunt Luo, these are the herbs to apply to Xiao Mao."
Luo Meili has been growing button mushrooms for four years and can distinguish the state of herbs.
"They're growing quite well! Hurry up and move them to that plot of land behind the mountain; I've already cleared it out!"
"Perfect timing! I was just saying yesterday that a new batch of young people have returned to our village, and we were worried about not having any work!"
A group of people followed.
Third Auntie patted the old man next to her triumphantly.
"Grandma, I knew Xiao Mao was going to school! His brother said he's studying Chinese medicinal herbs. Look how well they're growing them!"
"You insisted she was possessed by an evil spirit! I think you're the one who's possessed!"
The old lady wasn't angry at being teased; she just smiled and said, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
There weren't many herbs, but Luo Meili set aside a full two acres of land and finished planting them in half a day.
For two consecutive days, things seemed to be going well, and she finally felt somewhat relieved.
The third day was Saturday, and as usual, two button mushroom buyers would come.
After receiving the news, Luo Meili rushed to the village entrance. Passing by the herb field, she saw a person squatting inside from afar.
Her eyelids twitched expertly, and she immediately shouted:
"Ding Dapang, what are you doing!"
Beside the ditch, the short man squatting looked up blankly, revealing a dark, round face.
He remained squatting, pointing to the basket in front of him: "Add some cow dung to the herbs."
"The leaves are a bit yellow, so you need to add fertilizer. Use cow dung to supplement it, that's what the book says too."
Luo Meili laughed in exasperation: "Why don't you read books earlier or later, but now you're reading them so enthusiastically?"
"I gave birth to a complete idiot!"
"If you dare stuff cow dung in there, you can forget about eating dinner tonight!"
Luo Meili was in a hurry to meet the buyer, so she left after giving a warning.
Ding Dapang was scolded, but he didn't get discouraged.
He pondered for a moment; the herbs scattered on the ground all had leaves that were somewhat yellow.
Let's try one plant.
After pondering for a moment, he skillfully pulled out a dry, hard piece of cow dung from the basket and randomly picked the nearest herb.
You're the one.
Then he skillfully extended his hand.
Just as it was about to be laid into the soil, the next second, my ear was suddenly pinched by a force that was neither too light nor too heavy.
A familiar, huffy voice rang out.
"Ding Dapang! Who told you that you need cow dung to grow medicinal herbs!"
...
Ding Dapang's hand, which was holding cow dung, suddenly froze.
He shook his head, then shook it again.
Then, looking bewildered, he tentatively and slowly turned his head.
Facing the somewhat dazzling sun, the girl, who was only slightly paler than him, was glaring at him angrily.
As is customary, I'm about to kick him in the butt.
But this time, without being kicked, Ding Dapang sat down on the ground with a thud.
He opened his mouth, and tears instantly streamed down his face.
"...Wow, Xiao Mao!"
"Wow, Xiao Mao! Xiao Mao!!"
