After returning from my cultivation journey, I built a farm through fortune telling.

Chapter 121

As night deepened, the village lights gradually went out, and the whole village fell into tranquility. Only Bai Lu's house still had its lights on, but Grandpa Bai and Uncle Bai had already gone back to sleep. They had eaten too much and needed to exercise. Even Bai Jiang and Qin Xiu had gone to bed early, after all, they were quite tired after a day of farm work.

Only Bai Lu, Bai Wei, and Bai Chen, the three night owls, were still full of energy. Bai Chen touched his hand with a bitter face. Good heavens, his entire left hand was red, swollen, and shiny. It hurt and itched. He didn't dare to scratch it too hard, so he could only rub the skin with a little force.

He looked at the egret: "Do you have any magic medicine to cure me? Otherwise, I'll be in pain for several days!"

Although bee venom is not fatal, pain and itching are unavoidable.

Bai Lu clicked her tongue and said, "Let's just say, can't we bear this little injury? Do you think the elixirs in the cultivation world are some cheap, common cabbage? They're very expensive, okay? We haven't even made a name for ourselves as middlemen yet!"

During this period, I've been busy selling vegetables and managing the orchard, so I haven't had much energy or time to think about the cultivation world. The phones and power banks that Bai Chen and Bai Wei bought arrived a long time ago, but I haven't sold a single one.

Don't you want to sell?
I don't have time!

Every time Bailu went there, she went to absorb spiritual energy for cultivation. She would cultivate for a day and then come back the next day. Strictly speaking, Bailu hadn't slept for more than half a month.

If he weren't a cultivator, he would have died long ago.

Actually, at the beginning, Bai Lu was running between the cultivation world and the modern world. She had to cultivate and also discuss things with Yun Xinghu. After all, she hadn't given him the memory card with the downloaded TV series she promised. She had taken his deposit, so she had to collect the final payment!
It's not like we didn't sell a single power bank. At least the guy who bought the memory card came, and he also noticed the phone's "power consumption" problem and was very dissatisfied.

Fortunately, it was Yun Xinghu who went to deliver the goods; otherwise, Bai Lu wouldn't know how to explain it to the person, and might even get beaten up!

In addition, Bai Lu is now an inner disciple, and she has to keep an eye on the sect's small tasks from time to time. Most importantly, the fat steward subtly asked her if she had any money to repay him now that she has become an inner disciple.

Nothing major happened, but there were constant little things. Life is made up of trivial matters, but it's exhausting!

Moreover, she only had time to go there at night, and there were many things she couldn't handle. After a few days of trying, Bailu gave up on the idea. She didn't want to live like that, busy like a spinning top, with no joy at all.

She wanted to enjoy life, not to torment herself.

So after figuring it out, he would only cultivate whenever he went there, and never revealed his whereabouts.

"You're such a good sister! You have all the good things but you won't share them with your own brother!"

Bai Chen slumped onto the sofa, utterly dejected, but ultimately shouldered everything with his left hand.

Suddenly remembering something, he sat up abruptly from his deathbed: "When are you planning to take us there? You keep saying wait, wait, I'm getting impatient!"

Bai Chen and Bai Wei had always wanted to go to the cultivation world to see the prosperity of the new world, but Bai Lu had not yet left the sect, so they couldn't very well take the two of them to the Bu Liu Xing Sect. The sect did not allow unauthorized personnel to enter or leave, and every disciple had a mark. If a strange aura suddenly appeared, it would be discovered by the elders and sect leader very quickly, such as by Han Ba.

It would be difficult to explain the identities of the two people later, so the three of them had no choice but to shelve their plan.

"I told you to play less cards, but you wouldn't listen. You should use that time to cultivate!"

Bai Lu glared at him before saying, "Next month, once things are back on track at home, I'll take you all out for a stroll!"

Bai Chen snorted, "You think you're walking a dog? But it's a deal! We have to be there on Children's Day. Only dogs lie to children! You, a dignified ancestor, can't lie to kids!"

Egret: "."

This meme is going to stick!

Actually, this was one of the reasons why she kept delaying taking them.

When they go to the cultivation world, their identities as "ancestors" will soon be exposed. They'll be so embarrassed when they find out they're just little Karami!

At the very least, she needs to roll herself up to the Foundation Establishment stage, and eventually reach the level of a senior sister or even a senior uncle!

I just don't know if this half-month period will be enough time for her to finish rolling!
"We'll see!" the egret mumbled in response.

Bai Chen wouldn't agree: "Stop talking! You have to agree!"

Bai Lu put her hands on her hips and said, "Look at your cultivation levels, are you going to go and deliver vegetables? The cultivation world is very dangerous!"

The two of them immediately shrank back like quails. They didn't want to, but after cultivating for so long, they were still only at the first level of Qi Refining. They were helpless!
The egret became even more aggressive: "With your cultivation levels, how do you manage to sleep?"

The two of them lowered their heads even further.

Under Bai Lu's "encouragement," Bai Chen and Bai Wei hurriedly went back to cultivate.

Bai Lu breathed a sigh of relief. As the older sister, she still had to roll up her sleeves first!

She went straight to the world of cultivation while lying down!

The next day, when the first rays of sunlight shone through the curtains onto Bai Lu's eyes, she slowly opened them. With each blink, a day had passed, unaware that Bai Lu had already traveled back and forth between two worlds.

The egret stretched and sat up in bed. Through the window, it could see the distant mountains bathed in the golden light of the rising sun, as if draped in a golden veil.

She took a deep breath of fresh air and felt full of energy.

At that moment, Qin Xiu's urgent voice rang out from downstairs: "Bai Lu, Bai Wei, Bai Chen, aren't you up yet?!"

We're going to dig up the mountain again today.

Harvesting and selling vegetables.

There's so much farm work to do that it's never-ending.

After changing her clothes and washing up briefly, she stretched and went downstairs. Qin Xiu had already cooked white rice porridge, served with some green vegetables and dried radish—a very ordinary and normal breakfast.

For over twenty years, Bailu's family had always eaten like this, except during holidays and festivals. But today, she refused.

Who could possibly eat this porridge?!
Bai Chen could eat it.

He does all manual labor, and he'll starve if he doesn't eat breakfast.

Upon reaching the rooftop, the egret saw the beehives standing quietly, but all it could hear was a faint buzzing sound. Many worker bees flew out, and many honeybees were going in and out. The division of labor among the honeybees was very clear. Once they all started moving, it meant that they were ready to build their nest here.

"Wow, that's incredibly efficient! They just moved yesterday, and they're already starting renovations today? They're so proactive!"

Perhaps hearing the egrets praising them, a plump bee squeezed and squeezed through the small hole at the bottom. Because it was so fat, it almost couldn't squeeze out! It flew with difficulty, sometimes high and sometimes low, sometimes high, until it finally reached the egrets, buzzing and buzzing!

If the little wings flapped any slower, the body would fall to the ground.

"Little Queen—" The egret's eyes widened, and it held up a finger to make the queen bee stop: "How did you grow so much overnight?"

The queen bee perched on the egret's finger, her whole body relaxing as if the flight had exhausted all her strength.

The egret was charmed by her cuteness; she never expected that her wisp of spiritual energy would actually make the queen bee grow so much stronger!
"If you've eaten my food, you'd better work hard! Strengthen your tribe, keep your children in check, and don't let them fight or cause a family split, okay?"

The egret extended another finger and touched the queen bee's back. The queen bee reflexively stuck out its rear end, but then lowered it again, as if it knew it couldn't hurt the egret.

A satisfied smile appeared on the egret's face. She gently opened the lid of the beehive and saw the bees busily working on the frames. She put the queen bee back and reminded her, "I might have to move you to a different place later. There's lots of good food there! Remember to make sure your babies don't fly to the wrong place."

As for why it's "possibly," it's because Bailu suddenly remembered that Qin Xiu said yesterday she was going to bring pesticide to kill caterpillars. She didn't know if she had already taken action; if she had, then she couldn't bring the bees over for the time being.

Honey with pesticide residue is not good honey!

Just then, Bai Wei came up as well. She saw Bai Lu observing the bees and came over to look: "Wow, there are so many! There must be several thousand little bees!"

"Who knows? Who can count these things?!" Even if you've cultivated immortality, you can't count this many!

As the two sisters were talking, Grandpa Bai came up: "How are things? Are the bees alright? Are there any dead bees?"

"No, they're quite adapted. They're out working early in the morning."

The egret said with a smile.

"Going to work? Good for you! Looks like a swarm of hardworking bees." Grandpa Bai smiled with satisfaction.

Bai Wei blinked: "Are there lazy bees?"

From a young age, they learned from books that bees are diligent!

This is the first time I've heard of a lazy bee.

"Of course there are! There are diligent people and lazy people among people, let alone bees. Lazy bees can't produce many pounds of honey all year round because the nectar they collect is just enough for them to eat. But if a diligent bee goes out early and returns late every day to build a nest and make honey, it can harvest dozens of pounds of honey at a time!"

The egret nodded: "The difference is indeed quite significant!"

How realistic!

Isn't this a true reflection of Baekgang and Baekha?
"Alright, I see you haven't had breakfast yet. Hurry up and go downstairs to eat something. We still have a lot to do today," Grandpa Bai said, leading his two granddaughters downstairs.

The egret went down and ran away. As for the porridge, let her rest for a few days first.

She went straight up the mountain without having breakfast and found that her father hadn't brought any medicine to kill the insects. The caterpillars were rampaging and crawling all over the trees. Some trees had a lot of them, some had a few, but three trees were the worst affected.

The egret got goosebumps when she saw it. Before everyone arrived, she chanted an insect-repelling spell, and all the insects on the dozen or so trees were driven away.

Bai Wei's scalp tingled at the sight!
She reached up to scratch her scalp, and her hand stung—

Bai Wei was stunned. She slowly took her hand down, slowing her movements a hundredfold, but that didn't change the fact that a green caterpillar had actually fallen from her head.

"what---"

A screeching sound from a groundhog echoed throughout the entire barren mountain.

Baiwei applied Bailu's dust-removing spell again and again, but she still felt uneasy. She was dirty!
The egret ignored her. Because the insect-repelling spell was interrupted, the caterpillars lost their way and crawled around aimlessly. She quickly picked up some branches, converted wood elemental power into fire elemental power, and threw a fireball at them. The branches immediately burst into flames.

She cast her spell again, and the caterpillars, as if guided, jumped into the fire pit one after another. Their hairs ignited upon contact with the fire, and if you looked closely, you could see a faint green glow. Their bodies were charred black and emitted an indescribable smell, a little fragrant and a little foul, just weird.

Moreover, the quantity was enormous, and the smell was unbearable. When people came to work, they all asked what the smell was.

Bai Jiang and Qin Xiu exchanged a glance. They clearly hadn't killed the insects yet. Where were the insects?

Thinking of the countless insects dying in the vegetable garden, they immediately turned to look at the blazing fire and fell silent.

Qin Xiu sighed inwardly. It seemed that Lulu had indeed chosen the path of a sorceress.

What should we do?!

It's not easy for a goddess-like woman to find a husband!

As for the others, seeing that the tree was clean, they assumed that Qin Xiu and Bai Jiang had sprayed medicine overnight!
After all, this couple was known throughout the village for their competence and hard work.
……

Once the mountain was dug out, and the fences and chicken coops were built, a week passed by in a lush and vibrant way.

When the chicks were freed up on the mountain, they were absolutely ecstatic. Not only the roosters, but the hens also started crowing during the day!
—Family members, does anyone understand? It's me, Chicken Chicken! I can finally turn around freely!
Every day, it frolics wildly on the mountain in a vengeful manner, like a primal creature, flying to the fence and repeatedly leaping on the edge of escape, but it can't bear to give up the food at this house, so it can only turn its backside in another direction.

The leafy greens planted on the six or seven acres of land are gradually ready for harvest, and the daily yield is astonishing, from 500 catties to 2,000 catties per day!

Two thousand kilograms! Customers in the group no longer have to worry about not being able to get vegetables! Their enthusiasm for attracting new customers is even higher!

The only thing I'm not happy about is the price!
The cabbage that costs 38 cents a dollar is practically everywhere in the market, and your 30-dollar package doesn't even come with a discount!

But despite the complaints, the smart ones have already sent it for testing!

The current yield is still the result of egrets controlling the growth rate—relying on a compass to keep the vegetables in the best condition for preservation, the growth of the vegetables will be slowed down many times, or even stopped.

Leafy greens have a relatively short growth cycle, while melon seedlings have a longer growth cycle. The leafy greens have been harvested for several days, while the melon seedlings are just beginning to bud.

Qin Xiu is very busy every day. She has many furry pets at home, and it takes a long time to feed them, not to mention harvesting vegetables!

But she was tired but happy. Every day she would carry a small stool to the field, tie a bundle of vegetables and count them "thirty" by "thirty". Even if only five thousand yuan went into her pocket, she was still full of motivation.

However, because the workload is too heavy, in addition to our own labor force, we have now hired Aunt Gui and Aunt Hua to harvest vegetables in the fields.
