When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 1290 Farm Owner 43
After all that upgrades, it was already 3 a.m., long past everyone's time to rest. Tan You ate an apple, lay down on the kang (heated brick bed), and cuddled Doumi, falling into a deep sleep.

The workers had all gone home, leaving only her and the exotic plants and animals on the farm, where she lived a particularly carefree life. She no longer had to get up early every day to worry about the third team picking strawberries, nor did she have to prepare meals. She was all alone every day, enjoying a very pleasant and comfortable life.

Tan You enjoyed two leisurely days, spending her time eating, drinking, playing, or purifying plants. Now, only the small grass stems and pepper trees in the courtyard hadn't been completely purified; all the other plants below level five had been thoroughly purified.

Although it wasn't completely purified, Tan You brought the pollution levels of the grass stems and pepper trees down to near zero. Overjoyed, the grass stems darted out of the farm and went hunting for Tan You again.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Li Yong and Chen Xiaojun went on their routine patrol. Tan You's place was their last patrol stop. Because of the Spring Festival, their requirements were not as strict. The two of them could stay on the farm until night and then patrol back directly from Tan You's place.

Tan You started making sweet potato seedlings before the Lunar New Year, which requires steaming and drying three times. Before, when the workers were around, Tan You basically didn't have to do anything. But now everyone is on break, and Tan You is the only one on the farm.

Now that readily available labor is being offered to her, Tan You certainly can't let it pass her by.

Li Yong and Chen Xiaojun were busy steaming sweet potatoes in the kitchen. Chen Xiaojun sneaked a couple of bites and exclaimed, "They're so sweet!"

Tan You let him eat as much as he wanted; it was just ordinary sweet potato, how much could he eat even if he ate as much as he wanted? Chen Xiaojun took a couple of bites, then put the steamer on the big pot and slowly squeezed over to Tan You's side.

Tan You glanced at him: "Something you want to say?"

"There's something I need to do," Chen Xiaojun said hesitantly. "Sister Wei, I need to buy some persimmons from you. Brother Yong has been suffering from internal heat again lately."

"How fiery is he?" Tan You frowned, then her brows relaxed. "Fire-type ability, no wonder. Come with me."

"Sister Wei, I knew you were the best to me." Chen Xiaojun followed Tan You like a little tail: "Sister Wei, I brought the seeds with me. Minister Huang and the others don't know."

"Okay, give it to me." Tan You remembered Chen Xiaojun's favor, and she was still somewhat unhappy if Mu Nan took the seed. The Legion could be generous, but they could also be incredibly stingy.

For example, regarding the mutated plants of the Legion, Tan You only received a few red dates from Mu Nan; she hasn't received any others. As for the fruit she has, the Legion probably has it all.

Is it possible to extract the life force from the pit after picking the fruit? That way, I wouldn't have to worry about others coveting my good stuff.
With these thoughts in mind, Tan You led Chen Xiaojun to the persimmon tree. After absorbing Tan You's special ability, the level four mutated persimmon tree generously gave her eight fire crystal persimmons.

Tan You touched the branches of the persimmon tree: "Give me a few more, I'll make dried persimmons."

She wanted to try and see if drying the fire crystal persimmons into dried persimmons would have the same effect.
Hearing Tan You mention persimmon cakes, Chen Xiaojun swallowed hard. He was a glutton and wanted to eat everything he saw.

Tan You: "There are regular dried persimmons here. Go to the warehouse and find them yourself."

“No rush, Yong-ge’s persimmons are more important,” Chen Xiaojun suppressed his appetite and followed Tan You closely. After transferring 20,000 universal points to Tan You, Chen Xiaojun was a little embarrassed: “You’re taking too good care of us.”

Tan You chuckled: "We're friends, there's no need for such formalities between friends. If someone else were to buy from me, I'd charge 15000 for a single persimmon, whereas I used to sell an orange or cherry for 10000."

Chen Xiaojun was deeply moved by Tan You's words. He held his basket and waited for Tan You to pick persimmons. He dared not reach out, for fear that the mutated persimmon tree would whip him.

After picking thirty fire crystal persimmons, Tan You gave the persimmon tree a burst of supernatural power before taking Chen Xiaojun to the kitchen.

Chen Xiaojun proudly presented eight dried persimmons, saying, "Brother Yong, eat these persimmons!" Li Yong took the persimmons and asked, "How many Universal Points did you spend?"

"Hehe, 20000 points," Chen Xiaojun said, looking like he had gotten a great deal, and he really did: "Sister Wei said they usually sell for 15000 each, so this is a huge discount for us."

Li Yong glanced at Tan You, who was drying persimmons outside, lowered his eyes, took a bite of a persimmon, and slowly smiled.

The two spent most of the day working on the farm. Besides helping Tan You steam sweet potato chips, they also helped clean the breeding area and fed the animals.

Chen Xiaojun also slaughtered ten rabbits for Tan You. When he returned with the rabbit meat, looking at the ducklings and goslings chasing after Fei Bai and Dan Sha, Chen Xiaojun's eyes were full of longing: "When can we eat eggs?"

"Let's wait another two or three months," Tan You said, understanding the foodie's mindset—wanting to eat everything in sight. She also wanted to eat eggs, and especially meat. She felt the diet had become monotonous after eating rabbit and chicken for the past few months.

Chen Xiaojun sighed and put the rabbit meat into a natural freezer.

"I haven't been too busy in the evenings lately, so I made a rabbit fur vest and a pair of rabbit fur knee pads for you and Yong Ge each." Tan You beckoned Chen Xiaojun over: "There's a room inside, try them on to see if they fit?"

"Sister Wei, you're so kind to me!" Chen Xiaojun was deeply moved. He and Li Yong had no relatives left. They hadn't received new clothes in many years, and they never expected Tan You to make clothes for them this year.

Tan You had a headache: "Don't cry, hold back your tears!"

"Oh," Chen Xiaojun sniffed. After trying on his rabbit fur vest, he went out to show it off to Li Yong. Tan You let the two of them chatter on and began to tidy up the rabbit furs in the warehouse.

The farm has few other things, but rabbit pelts are the most abundant. Even though a considerable amount has been distributed as welfare to the workers, the number of rabbit pelts has accumulated to a considerable degree over time.

After putting on the rabbit fur vest and knee pads, Li Yong came over to Tan You very solemnly to thank her: "Thank you for the vest and knee pads. They are really nice and warm."

Tan You waved her hand: "You've helped me a lot too, this is just reciprocating."

"By the way, I don't need these rabbit pelts either. Could you take them to Minister Huang for me? Maybe we can exchange them for something else?"

Giving it away for free is definitely out of the question; we'll see what Lao Huang can offer this time.

Li Yong had also thought of this, and he rolled up the rabbit skins: "Okay, I'll change them for you."

"It's getting late, we need to go on our night patrol, so we'll head back now."

"Alright, let us know when you get to the legion." Tan You waved and watched the two leave. She wondered what good things they would bring next time they came.

"Meow," Doumi sat at Tan You's feet, its big tail brushing against Tan You's calf. "Aren't you going in?"
"Come in," Tan You pinched Doumi's ear and walked into the bedroom first: "Doumi, your thick fur isn't very windproof, is it? How about I make you a rabbit fur outfit too?"

Doumi squinted her eyes, "Meow, I want it!"
