Chapter 139 His Smile Is Not Bad
There are blueberries next to the strawberries.
There were more than a dozen pots of blueberries, each one laden with fruit, many of which were ripe.
Luo Ning went out yesterday, and even though she hasn't picked any for just one day, the branches are still full of tempting blue blossoms, covered in a pinkish frost.
This kind of harvest that doesn't require physical exertion is Luo Ning's favorite.
Xiao Jie brought over a stool with a wheelchair attached from the ground and placed it behind Luo Ning.
"You sit here and pick them slowly, I'll go to the rice paddy to weed."
The temperature and humidity on the terrace are suitable, and it is not affected by the outside world. Weeds grow quickly in the vegetable garden or rice, wheat and corn fields.
Luo Ning initially thought it was too much trouble and suggested just using pesticides.
But Xiao Jie wouldn't allow it, even though spraying pesticides would make things much easier.
But she likes to eat what she grows herself, and often she picks the vegetables and fruits and puts them in her mouth without washing them.
Pesticide residues are bad for human health.
So every two days, he had to pull out all the weeds from the ground.
The weeds that were pulled out were not wasted. Some were thrown into the fish pond to feed the fish, and the rest were all chopped up in a vegetable chopper to feed the chickens, ducks and geese.
The chickens, ducks, and geese in Luoning have already been sold, and even the brood of chicks that Dahei hatched back then has grown into half-grown chickens.
These poultry now need hundreds of kilograms of feed every day, and the chickens, ducks, and geese together produce hundreds of eggs every day.
Luo Ning's space has stored four or five thousand eggs over this period of time.
Luo Ning couldn't bear to kill any of these poultry, and the meat he ate during this period was all collected from his spatial storage.
She also plans to expand the chicken coop to the area where the fishpond used to be landscaping, and the area where she planted fruit trees, including the mutated willow tree.
She doesn't care about planning anymore; she wants to maximize the use of the terrace space.
Without hesitation, they dug out the fence and protective netting from the space and enclosed the orchard inside the chicken coop.
The space for raising chickens suddenly became much larger, and she planned to hatch more chicks, ducks, and geese later and raise them all.
We'll keep one or two roosters, and the rest can be slaughtered and sold. The hens will be kept to lay eggs.
Two months from now, she can already imagine the astonishing prices her chicken, duck, and goose eggs will fetch outside.
Xiao Jie was originally going to pull weeds, but he hadn't finished yet.
Seeing Luo Ning installing protective netting, he put down his work and came to help her.
The two quickly installed the protective netting, which the mutated willow initially thought was for its protection.
But when the female bandit released the flock of chickens, ducks, and geese, they wandered around at her feet.
"Plop—" A chicken pooped under the roots of a tree.
It twitched almost instinctively, shaking its body wildly toward Luo Ning.
Luo Ning kicked it, "What are you pretending for? The zombies you eat are way more disgusting than this chicken poop. Besides, isn't this just adding nutrition for you?"
A mutated willow tree sways; how can that be the same?
It just doesn't like these chickens, ducks, and geese, especially their droppings, so it wants to go somewhere else.
Luo Ning rejected its request, "The space is only so big, there's no other place for you to change to. If you don't like it, then my temple is too small to keep such a great god like you."
The mutated willow tree, reluctant to part with the spiritual spring it had just drunk from, fell silent and glared fiercely at the flock of chickens and ducks.
This time, Luo Ning and his team even specially separated the area where the water used to be filtered, just so that the ducks and geese could swim more easily.
Chickens scratched the soil and ate weeds in the orchard, while ducks and geese swam in the water.
Luo Ning sat beside him, watching with great interest.
Xiao Jie continued pulling his weeds, while 123 played with the other two in the playground. Even the bees on the storage room were busy collecting nectar.
Although there weren't many people on the terrace, it felt very lively.
Luo Ning sat for a while, thinking about the wood-type crystal core he had buried under the fruit tree last time.
The fruit trees that were planted back then grew very well, showing no signs of dying, and even grew better than the previous fruit trees.
Luo Ning's guess was confirmed. She walked to the cherry tree, which was quite large, and she was afraid that it wouldn't survive if she planted it.
It's growing quite well now, with flower buds starting to appear, even though it's not cherry blossom season.
Luo Ning walked in and confirmed that she was not mistaken; it was indeed a flower bud. She then went to see the cherry, bayberry, jujube, and longan trees, all of which were fruit trees where she had buried wood-type crystal cores.
We discovered that they are indeed growing very fast. It's almost December now, which is not the season for fruit trees to bloom, but these fruit trees are showing signs of flowering.
"Xiao Jie, come here quickly!" Luo Ning called out in surprise.
Upon hearing her voice, Xiao Jie immediately dropped what he was doing and ran over. "What's wrong?"
"Look, a flower bud."
Luo Ning pointed to the flower buds and shared them with him.
Xiao Jie had a lot of work to do every day, and these fruit trees didn't require much care, so he didn't even notice that they had actually blossomed.
But these fruit trees were only planted two days ago, how come they've recovered and started blooming so quickly?
"How did you manage to do that?"
Xiao Jie remembered that she had planted these fruit trees, and looked at her with admiration.
She always brings surprises.
"I buried wood-type crystal cores under the fruit trees, and I never expected that they could actually absorb the energy of the wood-type crystal cores and shorten their growth cycle."
Looking at the flower buds, Luo Ning realized that even though the weather was warm and they bloomed out of season, there were no flower buds on the day she planted them.
These flower buds, which have only grown in a few days, are not from ordinary trees like those before the apocalypse.
"You actually thought of burying wood-type crystal cores under fruit trees? That's impressive."
Xiao Jie praised him sincerely, and he almost immediately thought that with the shortened growth cycle of the fruit trees, they would harvest more fruit.
Luo Ning waved his hand smugly, "It's nothing special, just basic operation."
Although she said that, she couldn't hide the smug look on her face at all.
Xiao Jie smiled as he looked at her cute little expression and subconsciously patted her head.
After touching them, both of them were stunned.
Luo Ning hadn't been treated this intimately in a long time.
Xiao Jie was nervous, but then, realizing something, he didn't apologize.
However, Luo Ning quickly recovered and even smiled at Xiao Jie.
Xiao Jie was completely dazzled by that smile. He had never dared to imagine that one day she would smile at him like that.
"Hey, what are you doing? Are you stupid?" Luo Ning waved her hand in front of his eyes.
Xiao Jie took advantage of the situation, grabbing her hand and placing it on his chest. "You're crazy, your heart is pounding so hard it feels like it's going to jump out of your chest."
Luo Ning felt the muscular chest muscles under his palm, shook his hand, squeezed it, and patted it.
"Great feel, keep it up."
Then she broke free from his grasp.
Xiao Jie's smile widened. "If you maintain it well, would you like to try again?"
Looking at his smile, Luo Ning realized that Xiao Jie had always maintained a restrained and gentle demeanor in front of her.
He rarely shows his emotions like this; in the past, he even restrained his laughter.
But seeing his smile today is quite nice.
