The Liu siblings carried a basket each
and arrived at the largest vegetable field of the Cheng’s.
If the source of the Cheng’s mystical
beasts was a mystery, then the Cheng’s vegetable garden was another mystery.
The Willow villagers could never figure
out why the vegetables in the Cheng’s garden always seemed to be inexhaustible
no matter how much they pick . Or why their farm animals (they were also
mystical animals, but from the eyes of the villages, they thought they were
ordinary farm animals) were also inexhaustible no many how many they
slaughtered. They seem to always just replenish themselves.
Over the last several months, the
Cheng’s status in the villagers’ minds had changed gradually. Nobody dare treat
them the same way they used to anymore.
Although most people knew better than to
ask, these didn’t apply to Cheng Xiao Xiao’s two new maids. Yecao, the younger
of one them, blinked her limpid eyes and asked with curiosity, “Miss, how did
we group these vegetables? How come they are able to grow so quickly?”
“Oh, that’s simple, it was because we had
soaked these land with our well water previously and now we water them daily
with our well water. That’s why our vegetables tend to grow faster than what
you would see normally!” replied Cheng Xiao Xiao casually.
“Oh, but why?” asked Yecao again,
baffled.
Yesu, noticing that Cheng Xiao Xiao
didn’t seem to be displeased, stopped herself from interfering with her
cousin’s questioning.
Cheng Xiao Xiao walked into the
vegetable garden and put her basket down, “Because our well water is different.
When a human drank it, they feel rejuvenated and rid them of the feeling of
being tired; when we water the vegetables with them, they grow faster!”
“Why is it so amazing? How come my
family’s well water doesn’t have the same effect?”
“Because ours is a mystical spring, and
yours are not!”
“What is a mystical spring?”
Seeing that her cousin had no intention of stopping with her questionig,
Yesu quickly tugged at her and said, “How do you come up with so many
questions? Hurry up and help pick vegetables and stop slacking!”
“I am not slacking!” said Yecao with a
pout.
Cheng Xiao Xiao, humored by the two
sibling, said, “Okay, one of you on each side, pick all the vegetables!”
“Yes, miss!”
The two replied obediently, Cheng Xiao
Xiao responded back to Yecao, “I can explain the mystical well to you now, but
you won’t be able to fully understand it just yet. You will figure it out later
on. For now, just remember that water from the mystical spring is of a better
quality, okay?”
“Oh, okay, miss. I understood!”
Yecao has a more simple and
straightforward personality and always spoke her mind. Quite the contrary, Yesu
was older and remembering all the lessons from her parents and her grandfather,
observe more of the difference in their statuses and was less casual with Cheng
Xiao Xiao.
The three of them continued to chitchat
as they picked away at the vegetable field. As for little Yecao’s question,
Cheng Xiao Xiao answered what she could, anything she couldn’t explain she just
muddle through them.
Right when they were busying themselves
with the vegetable-picking, footsteps could be heard upfront. Cheng Xiao Xiao
couldn’t help but to look up and she saw four to five women returning with the
girls that left not too long ago.
“Young mistress, touble incomng!”
laughed the little Yuteng as if she was looking forward for the drama to
unfold.
Before she could respond, one of them
already started shouting at her, “Xiao Xiao, you get out there. We need to talk!”
Cheng Xiao Xiao stood up slowly and
replied lightly when they got closer, “Shi da
niang, what seems to be the matter?
“Xiao Xiao, are you looking down on me
Shi da niang? Why did you take all
the other girls except mine? Have I Shi da
niang offended you before? Why did you have to say those threatening words
and sent out second daughter home?”
