Farming? I'm making a killing with my fairytale vegetables!

Chapter 133 Sun 6

It was already dark when she returned to her room. Xia Shiyu sat on the bed, unable to come to her senses for a long time. She felt that her experience this time was really wonderful, and she was glad that she had asked the system for time.

Although two hours a week is a bit too short, those two hours are more fulfilling than 20 days a week, so she is extremely happy.

Xia Shiyu sat on the bed and calmed herself down. After a while, she heard a voice calling from downstairs, "Xiaoyu, come down for dinner."

"Okay, I'm coming right now." Xia Shiyu replied and followed him downstairs.

When I came down, I saw that the table was already full of food. Today's meal was just ordinary food, and there was also a hand-shredded duck next to it.

Xia Shiyu exclaimed, "Wow, this looks pretty good! They even have hand-shredded duck!"

"Hurry up and eat. This is made with our own ducks. I learned how to make it from an online tutorial," Xia Lihua said with a smile.

"Wow, Dad, you're amazing! This looks almost as good as the ones sold outside."

Xia Lihua couldn't help but chuckle a few times, "I specifically looked up recipes to learn how to cook. I think I do have a talent for cooking."

Yu Juan shook her head. "Don't be so happy. Come and eat here. Everyone should try his cooking today. It looks pretty good."

After speaking, Xia Shiyu arranged seats for everyone. He first handed two duck legs to the elderly. The duck meat from this hand-shredded duck was not tough, so the two elderly people could eat it now.

"Hey, Xiaoyu, you can eat the duck meat yourself, don't worry about us."

Grandma wanted to take the duck leg back.

Xia Shiyu quickly protected her bowl and shook her head, "No, no, Grandma, I still have so much duck meat here. The duck legs are enough for you and Grandpa. It doesn't look good to keep passing them around like that."

"Alright then." Grandma didn't refuse when she heard this.

The family enjoyed the hand-shredded duck together. Xia Shiyu first bit off the surface of the duck skin, which was crispy and rich in fat. Then, she put her mouth inside and found the duck meat firm and flavorful. It was truly a delicious duck dish.

"It's so delicious, Dad! Your cooking skills are amazing, and the duck is so good too. It's fantastic!" Xia Shiyu couldn't help but praise.

The two elderly people exclaimed, "This duck tastes really good. I've never eaten such delicious duck before."

Roast duck is a common dish at banquets in their rural area, so everyone is familiar with it and it is often seen on the daily dining table. But the ducks that taste different are the ones from their own farm.

Yu Juan nodded, "Your dad's tinkering skills are pretty good. Let him tinker around with it from now on."

Xia Lihua was overjoyed; he was now extremely proud of his excellent skills.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll see different ways to cook duck later, and I'll show you how I do it."

"Okay, then I'll wait to eat the duck." Xia Shiyu was very satisfied.

Her lips were glistening with oil from eating the hand-shredded duck, but it tasted really good. They devoured most of the duck, and put the rest in the refrigerator.

Xia Shiyu touched her stomach, thinking that it might be good that she didn't get to eat any delicious snacks on Hanbing Island, otherwise her stomach wouldn't have been able to hold so much good food.

Xia Shiyu thought to herself.

After the family finished eating, they simply moved the stools into the living room. When the weather gets cold, they can't go out into the yard at night to enjoy the breeze, chat, and look at the stars like before, mainly because they're worried about the two elderly people catching a cold.

So I've decided to watch TV in the living room instead.

Xia Shiyu randomly selected a TV program, and the family sat around and started chatting.

"We can start preparing the vegetables for my aunt's place tomorrow, and we can just send them to her when she wants them."

Yu Juan nodded, "Don't worry, we always have fresh vegetables at home, so they won't go hungry. It's just that we do need to prepare more than usual."

"Since they are relatives and from the same village, we should definitely help them out."

"That makes sense," Grandpa nodded.

The family chatted casually, and later everyone went upstairs. Her parents and grandparents went upstairs to sleep, while she went upstairs to play on her phone for a while before going to sleep.

The next morning, the family got up and busied themselves, doing this and that, mainly packing the vegetables, some to sell and some to prepare for Wang Xia later.

Xia Shiyu watched her grandparents deftly arrange the vegetables, then neatly tie them up with ribbons and put them away. She found it particularly pleasing to the eye. She felt that this kind of tidying up required patience.

She felt that placing oranges and radishes on the side would suit her better.

Xia Shiyu slowly and neatly placed the radishes into a basket. She found the process quite relaxing and comfortable.

They were busy, still busy even after lunch, until Xia Shiyu's phone started ringing again not long into the afternoon.

She answered the call as usual, without even checking the contact name, since most of the calls to him these days were either scams or people coming to buy groceries.

Sure enough, a familiar male voice came from the other end.

"Hello, Mr. Xia? This is Sun Liu. I'm on my way to your house. I'm here to pick up the chickens and ducks."

"Oh, Manager Sun, just come in. We're all home."

"Okay, okay, I'm coming right now."

After finishing the phone call, Xia Shiyu put down a few more radishes, then stood up to greet his father.

"Dad, let's get ready to catch a couple of chickens and ducks. Someone will be buying them later, so let me know in advance."

Xia Lihua nodded, "Okay, then I'll wait for him to arrive, and I'll go get it for him as soon as I've chosen it."

"Okay, then let's do it this way."

The two worked for a few more minutes before Sun Liu arrived at the destination.

Sun Liu walked in excitedly, his face beaming with a smile. "Hello, Boss Xia, I'm so sorry to bother you."

“Don’t worry, Sun. It’s all the same. It doesn’t matter who does the business.”

The two came in while talking. After chatting for a while, Xia Shiyu took Sun Liu directly to the chicken and duck sheds to choose chickens and ducks.

"Take a look and see which two you want. If you see one you like, my dad will get it for you."

"Okay, I'm fine with anything. Let's catch those two over there, they look quite energetic."

Sun Liu randomly pointed to two chickens and ducks; the chickens and ducks grown here were all about the same size, and he was quite satisfied with them.

You know, he's been suffering these past few days in the restaurant, smelling the aroma of chicken every day but unable to eat it.

So he decided to buy two to take home and eat them himself.

"Alright, I'll catch them for you right away." After hearing Sun Liu's words, Xia Lihua went inside to catch chickens and ducks.

"quack"

"cluck"

After a chaotic scene of chickens and dogs running around, Xia Lihua emerged with a chicken in his left hand, a duck in his right, and two chicken feathers still stuck in his hair.

"Alright, alright, I've got them all. I'll tie them up for you so you can take them home later."

"Okay, thank you so much, Uncle." Sun Liu said politely.

However, having come all this way, he certainly couldn't just buy a couple of chickens and ducks and call it a day. He looked at the vegetables around him and his eyes lit up. These vegetables were also delicious, and he wanted to buy some to take home, especially the radishes, which he heard were almost gone.

"Boss Xia, could you please bring me another batch of vegetables? Pack me some radishes and greens, too."

"Okay, okay, we'll arrange everything for you." Xia Shiyu and her family prepared two more baskets of vegetables for Sun Liu and stuffed them into the trunk and back seat.

Sun Liu was very satisfied with the dishes; his family could have a feast this time.

"Okay, thank you so much, Boss Xia. Your food is so delicious, I've been craving it. I'll head back now and come again next time."

Sun Liu didn't want to linger after getting the food and was about to leave.

"Okay, come again next time. Goodbye." Xia Shiyu waved goodbye.
