Fairy Gourd Farm

Chapter 43 Emerald Vegetables
Because Zhao Lei often waters the vegetables with water mixed with fairy dew, every vegetable grows surprisingly well.In just one month, the leafy vegetables are ready to be harvested.

These vegetables not only grow fast, but also look absolutely top-notch.Every vegetable is green and verdant, even the outermost old leaves are lovely green, even faintly transparent under the sunlight, as if carved from the best emeralds.

Looking at the rows of vegetables in the field, Zhao Lei felt that he was admiring a work of art, and he was a little reluctant to dig out these vegetables.

However, the purpose of growing vegetables is to sell them for money. Zhao Lei quickly put away his appreciation of artworks, collected all kinds of vegetables, and took the initiative to distribute them to good neighbors in the village.

Zhao Lei went to Hu Qiang's house first, and Hu Qiang and his wife were there.Seeing the vegetables he took out for the first time, Wang Fang was amazed: "Oh, this vegetable looks so good, it's even more beautiful than those imported vegetables sold in big supermarkets, it makes people reluctant to eat it!"

Hu Qiang said to his wife angrily: "You have long hair but short knowledge. Vegetables are meant to be eaten by people. Only when they look good will people have the idea of ​​tasting them!"

"Okay, okay, you know!" Wang Fang glanced at her husband and said, "Since you know everything, you can cook these vegetables!"

Knowing that the two of them were bickering endlessly, Zhao Lei quickly smiled and said, "Uncle Hu, Aunt Wang, please talk slowly, I'm going to deliver vegetables to other people's homes, see you later!"

Wang Fang's attitude towards Zhao Lei was much better, and she said with a smile: "Go quickly, remember to come over after dinner, and taste the taste of these vegetables!"

After leaving Hu Jun's house, Zhao Lei went to several other villagers' homes to deliver vegetables, and of course he did not forget his good friend Zhou Jun and the pretty and lovely Li Qian.But Li Qian and Zhou Jun were not at home, so Zhao Lei could only give the vegetables to their fathers.

When everyone saw Zhao Lei's vegetables, their first reaction was to praise them for their good looks.Even an old farmer like Zhou Jun's father, Zhou Qingsong, who has been farming for decades, said that he had never seen such beautiful vegetables. Just because of the appearance, these vegetables can be sold at a good price.

Zhao Lei finally came to the door of Chen Lan's house, knocked lightly on the courtyard door, and soon heard the widow's vigilant voice: "Who is it?"

Zhao Lei said loudly, "Sister Lan, it's me!"

Hearing Zhao Lei's voice, Chen Lan's heart beat faster for some reason, she didn't think too much, and ran out to open the door for Zhao Lei.

"Sister Lan, these are all the vegetables I grew, and I brought them to taste..." Zhao Lei greeted Chen Lan, and walked into the yard with the vegetables.

However, when Zhao Lei's eyes fell on Chen Lan, he was immediately stunned and couldn't even speak.

Chen Lan's hair was wet, and her body still smelled of soap. It was obvious that she had just taken a bath.Wearing only a short-sleeved T-shirt and a knee-length gauze skirt, she looked at Zhao Lei with a smile.

Chen Lan was originally a beautiful woman, and she looks really beautiful now.Although Zhao Lei often met her recently, he couldn't help but feel a little absent-minded for a while, staring blankly at Chen Lan, and couldn't bear to look away for a while.

For Zhao Lei, who is full of vigor, Chen Lan's current appearance is too beautiful.So much so that he looked straight at the pretty widow and forgot to look away for a moment.

Out of a woman's keen intuition, Chen Lan immediately noticed that something was wrong with Zhao Lei, and subconsciously followed his eyes to look down, and immediately blushed with embarrassment.

Originally, Chen Lan was alone at home, so it was no big deal to try to wear as little as possible on such a hot day.If someone else knocked on the door, she would never forget to put on another coat.However, after knowing that Zhao Lei was outside the door, the pretty widow didn't think of this at all, and went to open the door excitedly, only to be embarrassed.

Seeing Zhao Lei staring straight at her, Chen Lan felt her cheeks were burning hot, and she was afraid that reminding him in front of Zhao Lei would make both of them feel embarrassed, so she coughed lightly twice to remind Zhao Lei.

Chen Lan's cough brought Zhao Lei back to reality, and he quickly turned his eyes away and said in a friendly voice, "Sister Lan, I'll just put these vegetables here, I'll leave now if there's nothing else to do!"

After Zhao Lei finished speaking, he put down the vegetables and ran away, as if he had done something wrong to Chen Lan and was caught by her on the spot.

The pretty widow leaned on the door frame, watching Zhao Lei's back disappear into the corner of the road, and then looked down at herself, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

After Zhao Lei returned home, his mind was still full of what he had just seen, and he took a cold shower to calm down.It was almost time for dinner, and Zhao Lei came to Hu Qiang's house excitedly, preparing to taste the vegetables grown with fairy dew for the first time.

In Zhao Lei's anticipation, Wang Fang brought several plates of vegetables to the table.Zhao Lei and Hu Qiang's eyes lit up at the same time, and they nodded secretly in unison.

Even after frying, these vegetables look first-class, and they still retain the freshness of being picked from the ground.If you don't look carefully, you may even think that these vegetables are raw.

Such a good appearance naturally whets the appetite, Hu Qiang immediately picked up the chopsticks and said: "Leizi, let's try it quickly, your uncle Hu's mouth is going to drool!"

Zhao Lei took a bite of the vegetables, his face was full of satisfaction, he nodded repeatedly and said, "This dish tastes really good!"

Hu Qiang didn't say anything, he just put the vegetables into his mouth one chopstick after another, until he ate up all the dishes, and then he said with satisfaction: "Oh, I have lived for decades, It’s the first time I’ve tasted such a delicious vegetable, it’s delicious, it’s delicious!”

"Look at you looking like a starved ghost reincarnated, Leizi and I didn't eat a few bites, are you sorry!" Wang Fang demolished her husband's table as usual, and then said to Zhao Lei seriously: "Leizi, the sellers of these vegetables Both the flavor and taste are very good! Originally, you dropped out of school and went back to work in farming, and Auntie was a little worried, but now it seems... this is the right decision!"

After dinner, those villagers who tasted the vegetables came to Hu Qiang's house one after another and told Zhao Lei their views on the vegetables.Everyone's opinions are very consistent. They all think that these vegetables are very good in appearance and taste, and they will definitely be very popular in the market. They don't have to worry about not being able to sell them. Even if the price is a little higher, people will rush to buy them!
Chen Lan watched everyone praise the vegetables with a smile on her face, and she admired this man a few years younger than herself.This reminded her of the way Zhao Lei peeked at her chest in the afternoon, and the smile on her face became more obvious.

At this time, Zhou Jun said loudly to Zhao Lei: "Leizi, such a good vegetable can't be done without a famous name. You are a college student, hurry up and think of a good name!"

Zhao Lei glanced at the emerald green vegetables carved out of emeralds, and said with a slight smile, "Then let's call them emerald vegetables!"
