Eating melons

Chapter 455 United Front

Hearing this, Xiao Xuemu did not refute, "I am indeed a filial son, but my mother is also indeed a 'good' mother."

Anyway, he had never seen a mother who betrayed her son like this. This was the first time he had seen such a thing.

Hearing Xiao Xuemu's emphasized word "good", Wei Wei became even more interested.

"Oh~, tell me more specifically."

"Growing up, my mother's greatest pleasure was to entertain me."

Wei Wei was very interested when she heard this, because she also liked to tease Xiao Xuemu.

Xiao Xuemu's face is really good-looking. It seems to be the fruit of her love and is completely grown according to her preferences.

But usually, Xiao Xuemu's face has fewer expressions, and he looks like he doesn't care about anything.

I have a feeling that I am the best in the world and you are not worthy to play with me.

Therefore, I tease him so that I can see all kinds of expressions appear on this pretty face.

It would be a waste of Nuwa's efforts if such a beautiful face did not have a vivid expression.

So it is quite fun to tease Xiao Xue Mu, so she likes to tease Xiao Xue Mu.

Wei Wei felt that Xiao Xuemu’s mother would probably have the same idea.

"Tell me more specifically."

"For example, the red flowered headscarf I wore on the first day we met was something my mom prepared for me. She did it on purpose to embarrass me."

Speaking of this, Xiao Xuemu glanced at Wei Wei and said, "You were the one who laughed the loudest and most cheerfully back then."

Hearing this, Wei Wei couldn't help but say, "You were the first to be unkind, and then I was unjust, okay? Don't think I didn't know your little tricks from the beginning. You just wanted to embarrass me. Do you dare to say that you didn't have this intention when you wanted to swap with me?"

Hearing this, Xiao Xuemu cried out in injustice, "It's unfair! Although there is a little bit of this element in it, it's really not much.

Look now, who doesn’t like this, who doesn’t like this pattern?”

Hearing this, Wei Wei snorted coldly, "Huh, I don't like it anyway."

Seeing Wei Wei like this, Xiao Xuemu didn't say anything. "But I got my revenge that time. Didn't I ask you to find me a cotton-padded jacket last time? I sent that green floral cotton-padded jacket to my mother, and she was furious."

Speaking of this, Xiao Xuemu couldn't help but laugh.

Hearing this, Wei Wei said warily, "You didn't give me away about this, did you?"

I bought that pattern of clothes with the intention of playing a trick on Xiao Xuemu, but the main reason was that there were really few clothes with such bright colors in this era.

Generally, older people like brightly colored clothes, so she bought bright red and green ones.

Xiao Xuemu quickly assured, "No, absolutely not, but this is a very good job, let's keep it up next time.

Every time my mother says that I can't live without you, don't think I don't know what she is thinking. She must be thinking of pulling you to her side and forming a united front with her to deal with me.

Comrade Xiao Wei, I have to tell you, don't confuse the priorities. You have to remember that we are in the same group, and we must form a united front. You must always remember this, okay?

Don't help her deal with me in the future. We must stand together and not fight among ourselves."

Seeing Xiao Xuemu's serious look, Wei Wei found it funny and raised her eyebrows.

"That's not necessarily the case."

Hearing this, Xiao Xuemu was unhappy, "How can it be certain? We are one, you know, we can't stand on the side of them."

Speaking of this, Wei Wei became interested. "Shouldn't you two be the ones in the same group?"

Let’s not talk about whether to get married or not, but the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been a problem since ancient times.

Although her mother and grandmother get along well with each other, she has rarely seen a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship as good as that between her mother and her grandmother. Most of the time, the relationship is not good.

"No, no, no, we are on the same side. She and my dad are on the same side, so you must never stand on the wrong side in the future. You know, we are a community of shared interests."

Hearing about the community of interests, Wei Wei raised her eyebrows, "Not bad, the community of interests knows about it."

"I'm not a fool. We are the ones who are going to spend our lives together, so we must be a united front.

Not only that, when we get married in the future, we have to ask for a higher bride price, okay?

After all, if we don't want those things, my sister and the others will also take them away.

I remember when my sister got married, my mom gave her a thousand dollars as a dowry. When we get married, we absolutely must give no less than that. After all, money is becoming less and less valuable.

Hearing this, Wei Wei didn't know what to say, "No, are you still short of that little money?"

Xiao Xuemu shook his head, "No, this is not a question of whether it's a little money or not, we must get what we deserve.

They don't know how rich we are, and if we refuse, they will think we don't like money, and then we won't get any benefits."

Wei Wei: ...

Does this mean that the crying child gets candy, while the sensible child gets nothing?

After playing for a while, the two decided to go out and fight again.

Xiao Xuemu looked at the fruit trees in the garden outside and asked, "Which of those things outside are more expensive?"

If these fruits are not picked, they will fall and rot. Since Wei Wei can sell them, then pick them and sell them, don't waste them.

“They are all about the same, but fruits are more expensive than vegetables.

You go out and pick them first. I'll marinate the chicken to make it flavorful, and then you can grill it directly.

Oh, go dig me some sweet potatoes and some corn so we can roast them together later."

Xiao Xuemu nodded. "Okay, you can rest here! We've been busy for most of the day. I'll go pick some fruit."

Upon hearing this, Wei Wei immediately said, "Go pick up some eggs. I just looked around your room and didn't seem to see any salted duck eggs. With so many eggs, why aren't there any salted duck eggs?"

When she visited Xiao Xuemu's cottage before, she wanted to pickle duck eggs, but she couldn't do it alone without Xiao Xuemu.

Of course, even if she could pass, she wouldn't dare to go there, after all, there were still a lot of large prey there.

"I pickled a lot of that before, but I finished eating it a while ago, so I haven't made any for a while."

After all, you can't make too many salted duck eggs, and you can't marinate them for too long. If you do, they will become too salty and inedible.

So it’s better not to make too much at one time. Even if Wei Wei didn’t mention it, he would have made it when he had some free time in a couple of days. After all, the jar he kept at home was almost finished. If he sat down now, this batch would be ready once the jar was finished.

Xiao Xuemu put away the things Wei Wei wanted and went out to pick fruit. As for the machine, he could study it at night.

Wei Wei washed the duck eggs and chicken eggs, hung them to dry, marinated the chicken and fish there, and then went out for a walk.

She couldn't fall asleep if she were to rest here alone. She was quite curious about this space and she hadn't fully explored it yet.

But if you ask her to pick fruit, she doesn't want to do it now, as she has already picked it for a long time.

Wei Wei planned to stroll around here and see if there was anything else that could be added to enrich the species in the space.

When Wei Wei came to Xiao Xuemu's "vegetable garden" and saw the crops, she remembered that in later generations, there seemed to be many varieties of each crop, so she started buying seeds of these species.

I bought a lot of each and will put them in the house later. Xiao Xuemu will plant them when he has time.

(Xiao Xuemu: Who will plant peanuts for me? I can’t grow enough! But he is still very curious about new species.

After planting: There is no way to harvest!

Wei *Beneficiary* Wei: I bought all kinds of machines, which can replace several people, so I also did some work.)

After visiting Xiao Xuemu’s “vegetable garden”, Wei Wei went to the place where mushrooms were grown.

Wei Wei's eyes lit up when she saw the mushroom base. The mushrooms here at Xiao Xuemu were all from the northeast, and there were no mushrooms from the south.

Thinking of this, Wei Wei became very excited and immediately started searching in the space. Of course, she was looking for edible mushroom species.

After buying it, I didn't care about Xiao Xuemu and just spread it around the area.

As for whether they can survive, Wei Wei believes in Xiao Xuemu's space. After all, so many mushrooms here are alive. She has spread so many strains of fungi, so some of them must survive.

Xiao Xuemu, who was on the fruit tree, saw Wei Wei's behavior and knew that Wei Wei was probably spreading fungus seeds, but he didn't say anything, let alone stop her.

Because mushrooms are not like chickens, ducks, geese and fish, they do not need to be fed by others. They can grow on their own just by being planted there without any need for management.

As for when they grow up, if they can be collected, they can be collected. If they can’t be collected, it doesn’t matter if they are left there. So it doesn’t matter if Wei Wei has more, because there is enough space anyway.

Anyway, Wei Wei was having a great time in the space. Looking at the breeding eggs in the system backpack, Wei Wei suddenly remembered something. It seemed that these eggs did not have to be hatched by chickens and ducks or herself. It seemed that she could buy an incubator.

Thinking of this, Wei Wei immediately opened the system mall to check and found that there were indeed incubators for sale.

When Wei Wei saw it was for sale, she immediately ran home. I planned to see how to use it.

Xiao Xuemu, who was in the book, watched Wei Wei running home quickly without caring and continued picking his fruits.

Xiao Xuemu was cutting the lychees with a pair of scissors under the lychee tree. He swore that he had never picked so many fruits at one time.

The main purpose of planting so many fruit trees is to have something for ourselves to eat. Even if we want to sell them, we won’t sell too many. After all, fruit is a rare thing, and selling too many at one time will arouse suspicion.

Therefore, the fruits in the space are only sold occasionally, and not in large quantities. Occasionally, some dried fruits will be made to share with family members and some will be eaten by myself, but most of them will rot in the ground in the space.

But there are definitely quite a few fruit trees in the space. In order to have fruits to eat all year round, Xiao Xuemu planted a lot of each variety, and planted them at intervals.

This will ensure that the fruit will not be interrupted. Each fruit tree will have ripe fruit every month without interruption.

Therefore, today was the first time for Xiao Xuemu to pick so many fruits at one time. It was really what Wei Wei said, picking fruits was a pleasure.

But he only felt this feeling in the first year after he got the space on earth, and it was okay after that.

Like now, after picking so many fruits, I feel numb all the time.

However, when he thought of the slaughtering machines that Wei Wei mentioned, Xiao Xuemu's numbness disappeared. In his eyes, these fruits were strings of money, and those money were machines. He would soon be able to free his hands, so he was now full of motivation.

Wei Wei bought the incubator and took it out to read the instructions. It seemed quite easy, so she immediately took out the remaining eggs and put them in the incubator.

Seeing these breeding eggs and then looking at the empty space across the river, Wei Wei was moved.

Wei Wei had another immature idea in her mind. It seemed that egg-laying creatures were not limited to chickens, ducks, and geese, but also included many land birds.

Wei Wei immediately checked the system mall, and sure enough, there were all kinds of them, even ostriches, peacocks and the like.

But Wei Wei checked and found that there seemed to be no such things as phoenixes and dragons. It turned out that one still had to respect some facts.

However, Wei Wei guessed that even if such a thing existed, she might not be able to afford it.

If there really were any, she would sell everything she had and try every possible way to buy a pair to try out, but unfortunately there were none.

After Wei Wei bought everything she wanted and applied them, she felt a little guilty looking at the incubators on the ground.

If these are hatched, Xiao Xuemu will have to rely on himself to feed them. Xiao Xuemu will be exhausted. It seems that those slaughtering machines can be arranged. A large number of these prey in the space need to be processed.

It’s not that she doesn’t have money, but if she really buys all the best equipment for Xiao Xuemu, then she will have almost no money left.

The remaining ones are those left behind with Jiang Qi to do business, and they cannot be moved.

Therefore, Wei Wei was a little hesitant, but now it seems that she can still get a set for Xiao Xuemu first, but it will definitely not be the best.

You can buy him a simpler set first, which doesn't cost much. A complete set of about one million yuan can dress him up neatly.

However, Wei Wei is not planning to do these things now. After all, there are so many machines here, and Xiao Xuemu has not yet fully studied these machines.

Wait until Xiao Xuemu has finished researching these machines, and then buy him other machines.

It doesn't mean that you have to study it thoroughly, but at least you have to learn how to use these machines first.

Anyway, these eggs cannot be hatched all at once, it will take some time.

Even after hatching, they will not grow up immediately. It will take a long time for them to become active.

Besides, I have to go to the mountains to catch cicadas tomorrow, so there’s no rush now.

Thinking that Xiao Xuemu had to learn so many machines, Wei Wei went to the study and gave Xiao Xuemu a set of various mechanical books.

Thinking that Xiao Xuemu also grows medicinal herbs, he also put a lot of books on herbal cultivation.

I saw some books about growing crops and feeding animals and bought some of them.

Just as she put the books in place, she heard Xiao Xuemu calling her to go out and pick the fruits. Upon hearing this, Wei Wei went out immediately. She was not going to pick the fruits, but to collect money.
