After returning from my cultivation journey, I built a farm through fortune telling.

Chapter 12: So Ordinary Yet So Confident
"What's wrong with five thousand yuan!"

Bai Chen followed Bai Lu upstairs, muttering under his breath, "You didn't even make five thousand a month when you first started working!"

Bai Chen studied computer science. He retook the college entrance exam for a year but still didn't do well. He ended up attending an extremely expensive private second-tier university, where the tuition alone cost over 100,000 yuan. After graduating, he worked as a technician in a knife factory with about a thousand employees. He was on internship, and after becoming a full-time employee, he could still save more than 5,000 yuan a month after deducting social security contributions. In addition, he would occasionally ask Bai Lu and Bai Wei for alms, which is how he managed to save more than 30,000 yuan.

Seeing that Bai Lu ignored him, he turned to Bai Wei and said, "Second sister, I think we shouldn't buy the car. It doesn't matter whose name is on it, we'll still have to return it. My old car is fine. If eldest sister really comes back to farm, you and I might have to support her until she grows and sells her produce!"

"Let's keep them, it won't cost much," Bai Wei said nonchalantly. "She's already thinking about growing vegetables. Even if she can't sell them, it should be enough for her own consumption. We have chickens and eggs at home, and a pig—she's not in good health and needs to rest, so Mom and Dad will definitely slaughter one for her to stock up on—"

Bai Wei held up two fingers and moved them: "In the village, you can't even spend two hundred yuan a month."

Bai Chen: "Yeah! It really doesn't cost much money—go ahead and farm if you want, I can afford to support you anyway."

"Hey! You two, that's enough!" Bai Lu climbed the last flight of stairs, turned around, and put her hands on her hips: "Don't you believe me?!"

Do you think she can't understand what you're saying with this back-and-forth? It's just that you don't believe her!

"You can't believe me!!" Bai Chen rolled his eyes and looked up. "You always slacked off when we were working in the fields as kids. My second sister is two years younger than you, but she knows more than you! How can I believe you!"

Egret: "..."

Enough, there's no point in saying more.

Watch me farm and make money—it'll dazzle your blind eyes!
"I've made up my mind." Bai Lu took a deep breath: "Tomorrow, I'll get up early and dig for wild vegetables!"

Bai Chen: "."

He said earnestly, "Fresh wild vegetables can sell for more than 20 yuan a pound, but it depends on whether anyone knows their value. What if they can't be sold?" Bai Lu waved her hands and said, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! My wild vegetables can't possibly go unsold!"

"You're so ordinary, yet so confident."

"roll--"

Bai Chen: "...There are only two steps left. You should at least let me go up before rolling. Rolling here could easily kill someone."

As soon as Bai Lu stepped aside, the two of them pounced on her. Bai Wei was a little slow, and Bai Lu grabbed her by the back of her collar: "Bai Wei, where are you going! Aren't you going to tell us what happened?"

Bai Chen paused, looking at his eldest sister sitting on the sofa, and his second sister who had been pulled to stand upright in front of the sofa by his eldest sister. He had a bad feeling: "What is it?"

Bai Wei was also confused: "Yeah, what's wrong? What should I say?"

She was about to sit down next to Bailu when Bailu shot her a sharp glare, so she could only stand up straight timidly: "What's wrong?"

Actually, Bai Wei was already feeling uneasy. She was indeed in a lot of trouble, but she hadn't told anyone, and her sister couldn't possibly know!

Bai Lu crossed her legs and said, "Tell me about your work in Dongcheng these past two years. Tell me about the people who have been pursuing you during this time? Or perhaps—your boyfriend."

Bai Chen: "Boyfriend?! When did you find a boyfriend? How come I didn't know?"
