I Materialized the Cultivation Game-Chapter 53 - 47: Xiaoyu: Little Uncle, Did You Also Say There’s an Array?
Xiaoyu is very confused.
The vegetable garden wasn’t like this yesterday, how come everything has bloomed?
She recalled her Little Uncle saying that the planted seeds would sprout quickly, but can the ethylene effect Sister Xiaomi mentioned really affect other vegetables?
Even if she wasn’t the most attentive student, she still tried her best to get passing grades, she’s not a fool, she knows this is impossible.
Could Little Uncle have accidentally bought some hormone and inadvertently applied it to these vegetables?
She really wants to find Little Uncle to ask about this, but she’s with the visitors, she can’t leave them here.
"Big brother, look, these are carrots, they can actually bloom." Chu Ling was really excited, the rural vegetable garden is just too beautiful, she looked at Chu Hao: "Big brother, it’s so beautiful, can’t you react at all?"
Chu Hao honestly wasn’t trying not to react, he just didn’t know how to wrap his head around it at first, thinking that in the past he possibly visited places that might’ve been a scam?
It was the first time he saw a vegetable garden with so many flowers blooming, so beautiful.
But in front of his sister, he couldn’t let her know he was duped before, right?
So, he could only feign nonchalance and say: "Didn’t I tell you what’s so great about a vegetable garden, after visiting so many agricultural-themed resorts, after seeing so much, it’s only you who is so ignorant!"
"???" Xiaoyu was stunned hearing this and glanced at Chu Hao.
Really?
As someone who grew up in the countryside, this was her first time seeing so many vegetables blooming simultaneously.
She’s ignorant too?
Chu Ling was upset being called ignorant, and not wanting to share with this big brother, she immediately dialed a call out: "Cousin, I’m also in the countryside today with my brother, the rural vegetable garden is indeed as you mentioned, really beautiful."
A voice came from the other end: "See? That’s what I’ve been telling you, especially at dawn, when the morning glow spreads, the rural vegetable garden looks like it’s under a dreamlike veil, those colors seem so dazzling, simply gorgeous."
Chu Ling looked at the colorful flowers in the vegetable garden, indeed wandering dreamlike in the sunlight, nodding heavily: "So dazzling, so beautiful."
The cousin on the other end said: "Xiaoling, close your eyes, get close to the vegetables and feel, see if you can smell a mesmerizing aroma this crystal of hard work gives off?"
Chu Ling crouched down, sniffing at those carrot flowers, indeed with a faint floral scent, so pleasant.
She excitedly said: "Cousin, I smelled it."
The other end was evidently pleased, laughingly saying: "Xiaoling, it seems you also love life, love being close to nature, next month I’m planning to live in a rural area for half a month with two friends who share my interest, there’s a very large vegetable garden, want to join?"
Chu Ling looked at the beautiful flowers in front of her, promptly responding: "Yes, yes!"
A very large vegetable garden, that’s got to be even prettier, right?
So looking forward to it.
After hanging up, she then turned to Xiaoyu: "Sister Xiaoyu, I want to eat these carrots, what can I use to dig?"
Xiaoyu quickly explained: "Miss Chu, we provide tools here, but these blooming carrots are no longer edible, there are other carrots over there that haven’t bloomed."
Fortunately, not all vegetables in the garden have bloomed, although those that haven’t obviously grew another segment, really quite odd.
So, even though these two visitors dug up carrots, she must instruct the kitchen not to rush cooking, should it be a case of accidental hormones, that would truly be troublesome.
In no time, Chu Hao and Chu Ling, siblings both, got their tools, started digging up carrots, picking a few other vegetables before they stopped.
Then Chu Ling was reluctant to leave, playing around in the vegetable garden for quite some time before she left.
Leaving the garden, she said to Chu Hao: "Big brother, a rural vegetable garden is really fun!"
Xiaoyu took the pair back to the visitor center, stored their harvest for now, still concerned Little Uncle accidentally used hormones, so she hurried away from the visitor center.
Not expecting to arrive at the martial arts arena, where she saw Little Uncle carrying a wine jar in one hand, and a bucket of bottled wine in the other, heading towards the yard.
"Little Uncle." Xiaoyu immediately followed him.
"Xiaoyu, what’s up?" Chen Lin smiled and greeted.
Xiaoyu hastily said: "Little Uncle, most of the vegetables in the garden suddenly bloomed, think carefully whether it was that you accidentally bought hormone-like stuff?"
Chen Lin knew Xiaoyu would come to him about this.
After all, with so many vegetables blooming, she would see it upon visiting the garden.
So, he hurriedly explained: "Xiaoyu, really no hormones, actually, the garden’s condition is caused by the family’s underground array?"
"???" Xiaoyu looked at Little Uncle dumbfounded.
That can’t be right.
Little Uncle, didn’t you also disbelieve in the Patriarch’s underground array before?
"Xiaoyu, don’t look at me like that, listen to my explanation first." Chen Lin said seriously, "Before, I hadn’t remembered, don’t you recall your grandmaster could do Feng Shui?"
"Yes!" Xiaoyu nodded.
Grandmaster was her master’s grandfather, master had mentioned before that grandmaster could do Feng Shui, most of the village’s deceased had grandmaster choose their gravesites.
She was curious about this, once asked her master whether he could do Feng Shui, then master awkwardly didn’t speak, handed her a Feng Shui secret record, and after she read one page she fell asleep, followed by annoyance, nausea, headaches, feeling unwell, and other study syndromes.
Chen Lin continued: "Previously, when your senior brother mentioned the array, I hadn’t realized, thinking it unreliable, what if it were Feng Shui instead? Our Chen ancestors could do Feng Shui, when building the Chen family estate, there must’ve been Feng Shui layouts, right?"
"Also, I recalled something, when I was very young, the Chen family gardens once had a similar overnight growth, grandfather told us not to be surprised, just that I hadn’t remembered until earlier."
Evidently, he was making this up.
However, he felt it was crafted more reasonably, more convincingly.
"Ah???" Xiaoyu listened and was dumbstruck: "Really?"
"Of course, maybe your senior brother really could research something out, then don’t be surprised." Chen Lin said mystically and left carrying his wine jar and bucket of wine towards his nephew’s yard.
A long time after he had gone, Xiaoyu finally reacted, filled with disbelief.
If it were Chen’s estates construction involving Feng Shui, she believed it, but can Feng Shui genuinely affect a vegetable garden, making so many vegetables abnormally bloom?
That’s too magical, huh?
Really want to learn.
But thinking of her severe reading and study syndromes, she gave up the idea.
Then she thought of the "Ancient Calming Heart Technique" her senior brother found earlier.
Could it be real?
Can’t be, right?
As she was dazed, Zhao Kang approached with a few friends, upon seeing her, greeted her.
She snapped back: "Mr. Zhao, and gentlemen, you’ve arrived."
Zhao Kang laughingly explained: "They all set their sights on the Chen family’s heritage herbal cuisine, so once they got their business done, came over first."
"Today’s herbal cuisine has been prepared since early morning, surely ready by lunch." Xiaoyu smilingly informed them, meanwhile recalling her senior brother’s instructions, to let Mr. Zhao’s friends taste the Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea.
These are all potential customers for the Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea.
Thus, when delivering herbal cuisine at noon, she could invite them for a tea tasting of Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea.
Zhao Kang this time though laughingly said: "Xiaoyu, there’s a request we want to make, yesterday I gave them a bit of the Premium Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea, told them the tea is remarkable, they didn’t believe it, but today they all came wanting to buy two pounds, wondering if the Chen family has any premium stock left?"
Upon hearing Zhao Kang’s words, they all looked expectantly at Xiaoyu.
They all tried the Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea, realizing in wonder how incredible it truly is.
Not buying this tea is truly foolish.
Comfortably sipping it, in addition to being stellar for entertaining clients, ensuring its astonishment, like they were, upon sipping it, weren’t they dumbfounded?
Xiaoyu hadn’t expected them, without her even pitching yet, Mr. Zhao’s friends wanted to buy already.
Suddenly, without the sense of achievement from personally selling and convincing customers into purchasing.
They actively want to buy, she couldn’t justify credit to her senior brother now!
What a pity!
