Kapitel 22: The Best Gift Mother Earth Has Given to Us

In the morning, Song Tian wakes up, and he went to downstairs to waters all his crops.

Su Wen saw Song Tian on the stair, "Song Tian, breakfast is on the table," She said as she cleans her dish.

Song Tian laughed, "Thank you, with you being here, everything seems to be more convenient. I'm going to water the crops and feeds the chickens first," He said as he took his tools.

Su Wen laughed, "Just don't be late, or the foods will be cold," she said.

Lin Hua at the couch heard both of their conversations, she looked at Su Wen, "Sister Wen, it's my first time to see you didn't give the cold shoulder to people," she said.

She knew her best friend had some trust issue. Lin Hua remember her best friend always giving a cold shoulder whenever someone tries to approach her.

Being together since middle school, Lin Hua only remember Su Wen's only holds her conversation with someone when there's only study group or any study related stuff. When it comes to the topic outside of study, Su Wen either changes the subject back to study or excuses herself to leave.

Lin Hua also remember she's the only close friend of Su Wen. When peoples find out Su Wen likes cooking and foods from hearing both of their daily conversations, all of them tries to approach her with that topic.

However, not only it doesn't catch Su Wen's interest, it's backfired as it makes Su Wen becoming more distant to them.

When Lin Hua asks her why, Su Wen said, "Sister Hua, when it comes to a friend, you must be selective. Don't let other people use you."

And Su Wen told Lin Hua when she's in her elementary school, Su Wen used to be friend with a lot of middle schools and high school's girls.

Her elementary school is a part of private schools. The middle school and high school are located at the upper building of her school.

Su Wen used to gives all her friends branded stuff and even her own money. But, when Su Wen asked them to come with her to visit her mother when her mother was sick, all of them pretends to be busy and using all excuses.

Su Wen also told her when no ones came to her birthday party, and other similar events, but that didn't stop Su Wen from seeing them as her friends.

But all of that changed the moment they heard her parent's company on the risk of bankrupt, all of them starting to ignore Su Wen as if they didn't even know each other to begin with, and some of them also starting to bully her.

When her parent's company avoid the disaster, all of them began to approach Su Wen again. Looking at the people starting to approach her again, Su Wen began to develop a trust issue with the other people at such a young age, and she transfers to another school after graduating from the elementary school.

Lin Hua remembers all of that, smiled bitterly, and felt sad for what her best friend had been through.

Su Wen who heard what Lin Hua said, laughed, "You still remember that?" she said.

Lin Hua nodded her head, "How did you become friend with Song Tian?" she asked.

Su Wen told her how she encounters Song Tian and Song Xia, how both of their mom knew each other, and also how her mom back then when she's with Zhu Mei in the underground world.

When her mom reunites with Zhu Mei at the apartment, Su Wen also found out that her mom is a diehard follower of Zhu Mei.

Ye Yun told Su Wen that when she's still in middle school, Ye Yun used to be hot-tempered and violent. Her name was known for wiping out delinquents who didn't meet with her moral views.

When Ye Yun is on her way back home. In the alley, where's the route she used to take for a shortcut, she was ambushed by a delinquent group who hold a grudge against her.

As Ye Yun fighting them, she realizes it was impossible to fight all of them, and she's looking for a way to escape, but it was futile as the group of people blocking the escape route.

Ye Yun's only choice was to fight her way out, and after fighting for a while, her stamina can't keep up because a new wave of people kept coming toward her.

"I don't mind if you kept fighting in my territory, but trying to stab unarmed kid? Really?" Ye Yun suddenly hears a woman voice oh her back.

As Ye Yun turns her head, she's startled to see a beautiful woman with a short hair, and wearing a leather jacket with a logo she didn't recognize were holding the wrist of a man who's holding a knife.

The woman in the leather jacket grip the man's wrist really hard until a crack sounds could be heard, the man grimaced in pain and dropping his knife. Ye Yun who saw this was startled.

The woman put the knife in her jacket, she glanced at Ye Yun, "Brat, from looking at the situation, it seems this group of people was holding a quiet grudge against you, huh? Not bad," She said as another man tries to hit her with the baseball bat on her right side.

The woman didn't even flinch as she throws her fist to the baseball bat before Ye Yun warns the woman that she's trying to punch a baseball bat, her face changed as the baseball bat the woman punches exploded.

The man was stupefied after looking his bat exploded from being punched by a woman, before the man tries to escape, the woman already in front of him gazing into his eyes. Being stared by a woman, the man didn't know why he can't move, and his leg was shaking.

The woman glanced at Ye Yun again, "Brat, if you want to fight with the enemy and makes them doesn't even think about holding a grudge against you, don't show any mercy to them. Make them suffer and regret," She said as she let a spinning kick on the man shoulder followed by another kick on the man's nut.

The Woman continued, "But, don't kill them as it will get you into trouble. Just breaking some of their bones will do," she smiled while the other peoples saw her, shivered.

All the people who're ambushing Ye Yun didn't even move after the woman in leather jacket broke the writs of a man who's trying to stab Ye Yun, and now they're holding their private parts after seeing the man's got kicked in his nut.

The man who's got kicked in the nut grimaced in pain as his shoulder shattered, and he didn't even know if his private part going to function well in the future. In the end, the man passes out as he can't handle the pain on his nut.

Ye Yun who's watching the woman in action, felt her blood boiled as she's really excited, and it was her first time seeing such a domineering woman. She found out the name of that woman was Zhu Mei and decides to follow her.

Lin Hua surprised to hear all of that, "Wow, I didn't think your mom was really fierce back then," She said as she remembers Su Wen's mom is a really kind and gentle woman, even when she saw Ye Yun trains Su Wen in self defense.

Su Wen smiled bitterly, "I don't believe my mom was violent either, but after my mom show me some old photos of her with Aunty Mei when they're still fighting, it makes me speechless. My mom even took a selfie with people being hung upside down in some place I didn't know," she said she walks to the guest room.

Looking at the young girl hugging her pillows, Su Wen smiled, "Xiao Xia, wake up," she said she pokes Song Xia's cheeks.

In front of the chicken coops, Song Tian couldn't help but feel excited as he saw the chicken stats.

- Name: Chicken 2.

- Breed: Leghorn.

- Status: Healthy.

- Friendship: Friend.

- Foods: Yes.

- Eggs: Yes. Will lay two eggs at every 00:01 AM.

- Increase Friendship Requirement: Locked. Level 4 is required to see the requirement.

Song Tian was happy to see he finally becomes a friend with the chickens, he picks the chicken, and the chicken's not trying to peck him anymore.

Song Yi said, "Master, now you don't have to put the chicken outside of the coop as the chickens will move at 5 AM and 6 PM by themselves."

Song Tian surprised, "Really? I don't have to put them out and put them back anymore? But how does the chicken go out if the door is locked?" He asked.

Song Yi answered, "Look at the chicken coop's door, there's a small square in the bottom right? It will automatically open to a chicken which has become a friend in the stats and won't let any chicken without friendship stats or other creatures in," she said.

Song Tian looked at the square part below the door, tries to push it, but it didn't budge, and he went back to his cabin to took a shower.

At the dining table, Song Tian and the girls were having breakfast.

Song Tian stood up, and he went to the counter to get something and went back to the dining table.

Su Wen looked at the small container in Song Tian's hand, "Song Tian, what's that?" She asked.

Song Tian opened the small container, "It's the most sacred thing we could add to the foods," he said as he took out some pepper.

Song Tian continued, "Su Wen, you see, this is the best thing to makes the food taste even more delicious," He said as he tears the peppers apart with his hand, putting them on his plate and starting to devours his food.

Su Wen said, "What pepper is that? Is it really good?" Looking at Song Tian eating his food nonstop, and Song Xia also immediately took the pepper from the small container.

Song Tian swallowed his food and said, "It's Carolina Reaper, the best thing ever given by Mother Earth," As he picks another pepper and chews it.

Lin Hua face changed, "Sister Wen, don't fall to his trick. It's really spicy," she said to warn Su Wen.

Su Wen didn't get convinced after looking at Song Xia eating the pepper at ease, "Really? If it's really spicy, Xiao Xia won't eat them so effortlessly like that," she said as she looked at Song Xia eating her food with pepper.

Song Xia giggled, "Sister Wen, it's really spicy. But it really makes the food more delicious," she said.

Lin Hua gasped as she shook her head to warn Su Wen, "Sister Wen, I already warn you. You can't handle it," she said.

Su Wen hesitated as she kept being warned by Lin Hua, but at the same time, she doubts it as Song Tian and Song Xia eat them easily. She decided to pick the pepper, mix it with the meat on her plates, and eat it.

Su Wen face changed, "Wow, it's really delicious," She said as she kept chewing the food in her mouth.

After several seconds, Su Wen felt her throat burning, and she starts to sweating. But Su Wen didn't panic, she picks her glass and drinks the water to prevent it. Unfortunately for her, it didn't work at all as the burning feels more intense in her throat.

Su Wen started to panic and didn't know what to do. Su Wen kept pouring waters in her glass to drink it.

Lin Hua cames to her with a bottle of milk, "See, I told you. Drink this milk," She pours the milk on Su Wen's glass.

After her throat starting to feel slightly better, Su Wen glared at Song Tian, "You!" she said as she kept drinking the milk.

Song Tian laughed, "The food is more delicious with it, right? Su Wen, you need to make a video with this pepper as one of your recipes. Let the other peoples know the miracle of this pepper can bring to the foods," he said.

"Miracle your arse!" Both Lin Hua and Su Wen retorted.

After cleaning the dishes, Song Tian starts to pick his fishing gears.

Song Xia looked at her brother, "Brother, are you going to fish again? We still have a lot of fish left from yesterday," she said.

Song Tian said, "Yes, I'm going to the river in the backyard. Don't worry, I'm only going to catch and release the fish. Who knows I can be angler master someday."

Song Tian went to the river on the back of his cabin, he took out some worms and put it on his hook, "Let's start with fish on this river," Song Tian said.

Since Song Tian got the ability to sell the fish directly to the system, he's been curious to try it.

Several moments later, Song Tian caught a fish. As he removes the hook from the mouth of the fish, Song Tian said, "Xiao Yi, how do I sell this?"

Song Yi said, "Master, look at the fish stats, and there will be the name of the fish, and there's sell button on below part of it."

Song Tian immediately looked at the fish stats.

- Name: River Trout.

- Size: Small.

- Condition: Fresh (23:59).

- [Sell for $5]

Song Tian surprised to see a small fish on his hand cost $5.

"Master, don't be surprised with this price. If you managed to catch some fish sought by a lot of people in another universe, you'd be more surprised to see the price hehe," Song Yi giggled as she knew what's on Song Tian's mind.

Song Tian laughed, "Great, now this is what I call cheat," He said as he's pleased now there's a new way for him to get some income.

Song Tian decided to sell the fish, but before he presses the [Sell] button, something swift snatched the fish from his hand.
