Liu Guixia was just being polite, but Wang Sufen took it seriously. She was so happy that she couldn’t stop smiling. “Then you guys should go, go. When you have the time, we’ll chat again.”
After Liu Guixia and the others were far enough, Wang Sufen spat on the ground and cursed in a low voice, “Who does he think he is? Just because he’s rich now doesn’t mean he can treat us like this!”
Jiang Yue — who was walking at the back — turned around when she heard that.
Wang Sufen didn’t expect that someone would suddenly turn around. Even though Jiang Yue was still a child, she was shocked by the sudden turn of her head. Then, she quickly turned around and left.
“What’s wrong?” Xue Yan was walking beside Jiang Yue. Seeing Jiang Yue turn her head, he also turned his head and saw Wang Sufen walking away in a hurry.
Jiang Yue looked away and shook her head, indicating that she was fine.
Her body had evolved to a certain extent in all aspects during the apocalypse. Except for her size, all other abilities of her body had been transmigrated, including her hearing.
Her hearing was much better than the people in this era. She could hear it, but it didn’t mean that Xue Yan could hear it.
Xue Yan didn’t hear Wang Sufen’s words, so he didn’t ask anything more since she said she was fine.
The cornfield was much closer than the newly gained plot of land at home. When Xue Yan and Jiang Yue found their pit stop, Xue Dafu and the others set off.
Xue Yan looked at Jiang Yue after Xue Dafu and the others had left. Jiang Yue was not in a hurry to say or do anything. Instead, she observed the cornfield.
This one acre of cornfield was close to the foot of the mountain — narrow and long. There was a ditch not far away, and it was very convenient to get water from the ditch to irrigate the land.
The surrounding land had been used, but there was not a single sprout. Occasionally, people would pass by, but that didn’t matter. When someone passed by, she would stop transplanting and pretend that she was really pulling the weed from the ground.
With that in mind, a bunch of corn seedlings appeared in Jiang Yue’s hand out of thin air. “Here.”
Xue Yan took it very naturally.
Jiang Yue raised her eyebrows but did not say anything. Then, she took out a bunch of corn seedlings and squatted down.
She put the corn seedlings aside. Then, she used a small shovel to dig out a corn seedling from the ground in front of her and replaced it with a strong corn seedling she took out from her space.
Xue Yan was squatting not far from Jiang Yue and mimicked what she was doing. However, his speed was much slower than Jiang Yue’s. He wanted to be faster, but he did not know how to. He seemed to have accepted his fate and knew that he could not compare himself to Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue was no ordinary baby. She was more of an adult than an actual adult.
After planting the corn seedlings that she took out, Jiang Yue took more out of her space. She didn’t plan to tell Xue Yan about her space or how the corn seedlings were a better variant.
She wasn’t the kind of person who would tell others everything. Besides, Xue Yan never bothered asking anyway.
It would take them a whole day to plant everything. Although Xue Yan was slow, he helped out as much as he could. However, it was impossible to finish it in one afternoon. They would have to come back tomorrow morning.
She had also started to cultivate strong cotton seedlings in her space.
After finishing up the corn seedlings in the morning tomorrow, she would be able to transplant the cotton seedlings in the afternoon.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, Jiang Yue quickly took out the two wooden pails and water ladle from her space.
