Chapter 166 Space Upgrade
After Yang Mingxi finished her meal in Lu Jintang's riverside courtyard, she looked at everyone who was having a great time drinking, cleaned up the kitchen briefly, and went home.
In the Yang family courtyard, everyone finished their meal and sat down to rest in the cool breeze. Seeing that it wasn't yet completely dark, Yang Mingxi called out to Yang Minghao and Yang Mingze and headed towards the gently sloping bitter melon patch ahead.
Yang Minghao smiled and said, "Third sister, where are we going?"
"I won't tell you, you'll know when you get there."
"That's right, Fourth Brother, what are you asking? If you don't want to go, forget it. I heard from Third Sister that there are delicious foods there."
"Go away, you have your business everywhere. I never said I couldn't go, I was just asking." Yang Minghao said unconvinced.
Yang Mingxi looked at her two brothers arguing and suddenly said, "When the Lu Family Academy opens, you should all go! You're still young and can learn more."
Yang Minghao pursed his lips and said, "I don't want to go. School is for children. I'm an adult now and can earn money to support my family."
After hearing this, Yang Mingxi's face turned pale. Should she talk it over? But how should she say it? Yang Mingxi didn't understand.
Yang Mingze looked at his third sister's unhappy expression and said, "If you don't go, I will. School is so good. You can even become an official."
Yang Mingxi thought for a moment and said, "Going to school not only helps you learn to read, but also helps you understand reason. People who go to school can do things more simply and see further than those who don't. So I don't insist that you become officials, but you must go to school. It would be a pity for you not to go to school at your age."
"Third sister, I will go and get the top score in the exam for you." Yang Mingze said excitedly.
"Okay, sister believes you." Yang Mingxi smiled and touched Yang Mingze's head.
Yang Minghao felt a pang of jealousy when he saw how his third sister treated his fifth brother. He still said, "Third sister, I'll go to school for a year. If that doesn't work out, I'll just leave. I want to do business."
"Okay, I'll arrange someone to take you there then." Yang Mingxi also said with a smile.
The three siblings chatted and laughed as they arrived at the bitter melon field on the gentle slope in front. It was already dark. Yang Mingxi looked carefully at the bitter melons in the field. After searching for a long time, she finally selected six ripe bitter melons. Each of them carried two and returned to the yard.
Yang Mingxi took a kitchen knife and a chopping board, cut the bitter melon into large chunks, and asked Yang Minghao and Yang Mingze to bring it to the yard for everyone to eat.
Because Yang Mingxi's family is harvesting rice today, people from the Yang and Wu families have come to help. They are now sitting on the stones next to the yard, discussing tomorrow's arrangements.
Yang Mingze and Yang Minghao brought out the bitter melons and said with a smile, "The bitter melons are ripe. Let's try them and see how they taste."
Yang Minghao first gave the bitter melon to Old Man Yang and Old Lady Yang, and then distributed the rest one by one.
Old Man Yang took a bite and said, "Delicious! Perfect for eating now, so juicy and sweet." He took another bite and said, "What are you guys doing sitting there? Go help get the bitter melon? It's so delicious, and you don't even know how to get it?"
The children sitting here ran to get the bitter melon. Old Lady Yang smacked her lips and said, "It's delicious. Everyone, hurry up and eat what you have!"
After a while, the picked bitter melons were cut and served. Because there were many people, each person only got a small piece, just to taste it.
After finishing the meal, Yang Laodao said, "I'll go to the fields tomorrow and pick some to eat. They are indeed delicious."
Yang Mingxi said, "Let's wait a couple of days. It's not quite ripe yet. Just try it first."
Everyone just gave up the urge to go pick bitter melons tomorrow.
Yang Mingxi originally wanted to tell everyone that bitter melon was very expensive, but after thinking about it, she didn't say it. If she said it now, no one would want to eat it, and such a delicious thing would be wasted.
What Yang Mingxi didn't know was that after they found out that bitter melon could be sold for so much money, everyone felt that they had suffered a great loss and just pocketed the money.
Because Yang Mingxi's family's fields had not been turned over yet and the rice seedlings would not be planted until at least two or three days later, people dispersed to help other branches of the Yang family harvest the rice first, and then plant the rice seedlings together.
The Wu family planned to make more bricks and tiles in the next few days, leaving Uncle Wu San to burn bricks while the rest of the family returned to harvest the rice and plant the rice seedlings. Because the Wu family didn't plant the rice seedlings themselves, they had to pull them over to Lu Jintang's house, which was quite time-consuming.
After everyone finished the discussion, they went home to rest.
Yang Mingxi washed up and prepared to go to bed. Every day before going to bed, she still had the habit of going into the space to tidy up, because there were still many things she wanted that had not been planted yet?
When Yang Mingxi entered the space, she was shocked! The breeding area was full of chicken eggs, duck eggs, and piglets. She came in to clean up almost every day. Isn't it supposed to be like this?
I looked at the field and found that the space had doubled, and the tomatoes I planted last night were already ripe. Could it be that the space had been upgraded?
Yang Mingxi excitedly walked around the space, harvested the tomatoes, and cleaned up the farm before going to the big screen in the bamboo house to watch the changes on it.
The screen showed that the function keys could be upgraded. Yang Mingxi didn't hesitate and directly upgraded the perception function. With daily morning exercises, Yang Mingxi felt that her perception function was also improving. This time, the upgrade was available, so she upgraded all of them directly.
When the perception function stopped, Yang Mingxi smiled. The perception function was upgraded directly from level 11 to level 22. It was too powerful. I wonder what can be sensed outside with such a powerful perception function?
Thinking about these wonderful things, Yang Mingxi didn't forget to check on the small box. The tomatoes on the plant were already full, and now the peanuts were lit up. Peanuts are a good thing, they can be used to make oil. He quickly planted the peanuts and went to check on the animals.
On the animal side, the piglet's box was already full, and surprisingly, the cow lit up. Yang Mingxi felt incredibly lucky today; she'd just thought about making a cake, and then the cow showed up. After leading the cow to the animal breeding area, Yang Mingxi left the space with excitement.
Lying on the bed, Yang Mingxi lay quietly, feeling the movement outside.
I could actually feel the tossing and turning of Yang Mingqian next door. And the snoring of some older brother, or perhaps my own father, from the front yard could also be heard coming over continuously.
Suddenly, Yang Mingxi felt someone approaching. She held her breath, slowly listening for any movement outside. The person walked to Yang Mingxi's window, remained silent, paused for a moment, and then walked back towards her, standing in front of the window, motionless.
Yang Mingxi quietly got up and walked to the window. Just as she was about to push the window open to see who it was, she felt someone else coming over, carrying some light equipment. This person must be Lu Jintang.
Yang Mingxi stopped moving, stood in front of the window, and listened quietly to the noise outside.
The sound of a heavy punch hitting flesh was heard, and then the two men walked away from the window. Yang Mingxi took a deep breath and stood in front of the window, staying quietly.
