章節 22: Showing Off
編輯: Atlas Studios
"Li Chengqian, where did you go this morning?" The next day, Chen Li felt refreshed and her face was flushed. Then, she saw Li Chengqian, who had just come back home.
"I went out to buy some seeds. I want to try planting them." Li Chengqian raised the bag in his hand.
He went out early in the morning to the seed market and even the wet market nearby, in preparation for the picnic at Peach Blossom Mountain.
Li Chengqian recalled that in his previous life, when they were at Peach Blossom Mountain, Huang Jingjing not only talked about Li Chengqian's results, but also took out all kinds of precious ingredients to brag.
All kinds of showing off.
This was also one of the reasons why Li Tianlan was so upset.
Since he had changed his fate, his parents' fate would be completely changed too.
Li Chengqian went out to buy seeds.
He had even gotten hold of precious truffle, matsutake, and dried mushroom spore powders.
With the Farmer profession, he only needed three minutes to turn these seeds into food, regardless of geography, time, and weather.
Although they made plans to go to Peach Blossom Mountain together, the three families drove there separately. They only agreed to barbecue there together.
It happened to be the peach blossom season. On Peach Blossom Mountain, pink peach blossoms were everywhere. The spring breeze blew, and pink peach blossoms danced in the sky. It was a gorgeous sight.
There was a small lake on Peach Blossom Mountain, and the surroundings of the small lake was flat. This was Li Chengqian's destination, Peach Blossom Valley.
Jian Qingli was wearing skinny jeans and a white shirt. Her makeup was exquisite and she looked extremely beautiful. As soon as she got out of the car, she started posing and taking photos.
Ding Ling's family had yet to arrive.
"Son, go play. Jian Qingli is over there," Li Tianlan said as she stopped the car and unpacked his stuff.
In his previous life, the moment Li Chengqian reached Peach Blossom Valley, he was so mesmerized by Jian Qingli that he followed her everywhere like a lovesick dog. He didn't even help his father carry the barbeque grill down.
Naturally it won't be the same this time round.
"Dad, where do you think this barbecue grill should be placed?" Li Chengqian opened the trunk and took down the fifty-odd catty barbecue grill.
With the enhancement of Strength skill, his strength had already reached a terrifying 30 points, equivalent to three times that of an ordinary person. Although his Strength Stats had yet to be fully unleashed and was still in the process of being continuously released,
50 catties was naturally not a problem.
"Son, be careful. The grill is very heavy. I'll go with you and let's just place it at the side." Li Tianlan was especially happy that Li Chengqian had helped, he was also worried at the same time.
He hurriedly ran over to help. Under his instructions, Li Chengqian quickly placed the grill.
"Our son has really grown up!" Chen Li was overjoyed when she saw this scene.
"Alright, your mother and I will do the rest. You go and play." Li Tianlan saw that Li Chengqian wanted to help further and hurriedly chased him away. What's left was some trivial matters that didn't require much effort.
"Alright then, I'll go take a look around, maybe I can catch two fish in the stream." Li Chengqian put the bag containing the seeds in his pocket, took a small bucket, and put a few plastic bags inside. He then strode towards the forest at the edge of the valley.
There were many people in Peach Blossom Valley, but there was no one in the dense forest outside.
The dense forest was deep. Other than the tall trees, there were many small bushes on the ground. There was no path in at all.
Li Chengqian was not shocked, but delighted instead. He strenuously crawled into the dense forest.
After walking for more than ten minutes and seeing that there were no traces of human activity around, he stopped at a spot that he was satisfied with. "This place is not bad!"
He vigilantly sized up his surroundings. After confirming that there was no one around, Li Chengqian no longer hesitated. He faced a barren grassland by the stream.
Reclamation skill!
In an instant, the overgrown wasteland disappeared and four units of land with fertile black soil appeared on the side of the stream.
"Plant!"
Immediately, the seeds truffle, matsutake, ginseng and peanuts were planted.
In actual fact, the two precious ingredients, truffle and matsutake, were fungi. There were no seeds, only spores. Li Chengqian had found them in a shop selling high end ingredients.
Young sprouts instantly sprouted from the four pieces of land. Four ingredients that grew in completely different environments grew rapidly out of the ground.
A rich, natural pine fragrance instantly filled the air.
Li Chengqian wasn't surprised. He lifted the bucket and went into the stream to get water. When the notification appeared, he watered the crops directly.
…
"Li Chengqian actually ignored me!" Meanwhile, Jian Qingli was frowning unhappily. She had expected Li Chengqian to be fawning over her, like just before.
But Li Chengqian actually grabbed a small bucket and went into the forest to catch fish. This was simply unreasonable!
"Maybe I got too close to Bi Jialiang and hurt his feelings," Jian Qingli thought to herself. "I was still thinking that this picnic is a chance to mend my relationship with Li Chengqian."
"Li Chengqian isn't even willing to come and talk to me. Forget it! Let's leave it at that!" But it was impossible for her to give up on Bi Jialiang because Bi Jialiang was her hope. If she followed Bi Jialiang, she might be able to enter Divine Dragon University without having to take the test.
Therefore, no matter what, she wouldn't give up her relationship with Bi Jialiang for Li Chengqian. This was her bottom line.
Not far away from Jian Qingli, her mother, Huang Jingjing, was bringing the food items out of the car bit by bit.
"Chen Li, let me tell you, this is the most critical period for the children now. As mothers, we can't do anything else, but we have to at least ensure the children's diet and nutrition," Huang Jingjing said seriously.
Then, she took out a palm-sized red frozen lobster. "Australian lobster. It's very fresh. It costs 200 yuan per catty. It's extremely expensive. This one weighs two catties and cost me 400 yuan, but it's nutritious. The child likes it!"
Then, she took out a bag containing about ten pieces of ginseng from the car.
Each ginseng was as thick as a little finger. They looked white and tender, and were especially fresh.
"Ginseng is especially nourishing for the brain. The children are in their third year of senior high school now, and studying is especially taxing on their brains. Brain food is good for their studies."
"It's just that this isn't cheap either. 10 small roots, 500 yuan!" Huang Jingjing said proudly.
Right on the heels of that, Huang Jingjing took out a box of beef slices with streaks of white fat visible. "Kobe beef. This box costs 480 yuan. Kobe beef is the best beef in the world. It melts in your mouth. The beef in our country can't compare to this at all."
After Huang Jingjing took the beef, she seemed to have suddenly thought of something and asked Chen Li, who had been silent the entire time, "By the way, Chen Li, I forgot to ask you what food you've prepared."
" Pork belly, pork ribs, and frozen drumsticks. What are these? Pea pods?" Huang Jingjing didn't wait for Chen Li to answer and walked over to the food prepared by Li Chengqian's family. Her tone was especially exaggerated.
"Chen Li, let me tell you. It's fine to be thrifty during normal times, but the child will only be in Grade 12 for a year. We can't save on the child's food this year. We adults can skimp on ourselves, but we can't let the child suffer."
Huang Jingjing was arrogant. After commenting on the food prepared by Li Chengqian's family, she felt especially pleased.
In addition, Huang Jingjing's voice was very loud, attracting the attention of many people around her.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the food they had prepared.
Immediately, the smile on Chen Li's face became frozen. Li Tianlan, who was preparing the charcoal, also looked unhappy.
