However, his family members were already helping to hoe the weeds on the two acres of barren land they had bought from the village chief and help to plow the soil. When they thought about what they wanted to plant, they could directly start planting.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan felt warm in their hearts.
Walking out of the house and onto the field, Xue Yan asked, “Where should we go?”
“Let’s take a look around for real, just for show,” Jiang Yue said.
It was already like this, but he still had to put on an act.
Xue Yan, “Yes.”
She walked aimlessly through several fields and came to the foot of the mountain. Seeing that no one was there, Jiang Yue stopped. A strong strawberry seedling appeared in her hand out of thin air. Then, she planted it in the gra.s.s that would not be noticed if one did not pay close attention.
“What are you doing?” Xue Yan also knelt down and watched her plant it.
“Planting,” Jiang Yue replied.
Xue Yan immediately understood and nodded.
It was impossible for them to have dug up every single raspberry in the surrounding villages. There must be some that they missed.
If there were strawberries growing in the wild, there would be no suspicion about the strawberries in their field.
If it was planted now, it would be hard to notice it if one did not pay close attention. But when it grew up and bloomed and bore fruit, the red fruit would be easily noticed.
At that time, one would not need to pay special attention to see it.
Jiang Yue didn’t mention that she had cultivated more than a dozen strawberry seedlings. After planting one, she looked around for other places to plant. She planted them in places that people could notice but couldn’t notice if they didn’t pay attention.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan arrived at the foot of the mountain where other villages were located after going along the fields and bypa.s.sing the river.
The two of them first walked around the foot of the mountain before going up.
This mountain was about the same size as the mountain that Locust Village’s people had explored, but it was not adjacent to the mountain where they had hunted. There was some distance between them, and the road up the mountain was not easy to walk.
Jiang Yue would help Xue Yan up from time to time, and sometimes she would even pull him up.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan walked towards the side but did not venture out too far. There were people going there from time to time, and they stopped only when they saw that there was no one else around.
Seeing that Xue Yan was tired, Jiang Yue said, “Let’s have a seat first.”
Xue Yan was a little tired, but he had already accepted the difference in physical strength between him and Jiang Yue. He didn’t force himself upon hearing Jiang Yue’s words. With a grunt, he removed the basket on his back and sat down on a slightly slanted spot.
Jiang Yue didn’t sit down. She just stood beside him and looked around.
After that, Jiang Yue took out a bunch of tomatoes, potatoes, sweet potatoes, white potatoes, and purple potato seedlings from her s.p.a.ce. They were all neatly arranged with dry straws.
Xue Yan didn’t know how she manifested the seeds. He only saw a bunch of seedlings in Jiang Yue’s hand, and then another bunch, and finally put them all into the basket.
“It will be troublesome to lie. We’ll take all these seedlings back in one go today. “Jiang Yue said. “Although there are still three acres of land, there’s no need to plant them so densely. These seedlings will be enough.”
“Okay.”
“This is a tomato seedling. The fruit it bears will be red when it ripens.”
“Okay.”
“These are potato seedlings.” When Jiang Yue was introducing him to the other seeds, she also paid special attention to the potato seedlings.
Usually, this kind of potato would sprout and be cut into pieces to be planted. However, the all-purpose nursery in this s.p.a.ce was particularly magical. There were complete roots, and there were no signs of them being sprouted from potato pieces.
The sweet potatoes, white sweet potatoes, and purple sweet potatoes didn’t seem to have sprouted on their own. They all had complete roots, and they were all grown one by one.
