A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 43 Do you want to propose to me?
"Well, what else?" Lyon looked at his outfit. Although it was not formal, it was not ugly either. Why was it not okay?

Abigail didn't say anything, but just pointed at Lyon's cuffs and trouser legs. Lyon then realized that the place where Abigail pointed was stained with a lot of mud. He was not too surprised. After all, he was a farmer, and it would be strange if he didn't have mud on his body.

Noticing that his clothes were indeed a bit slovenly, Leon readily replied: "Okay, then I'll go change my clothes and take a shower. You may need to wait here for a while."

"It's okay." Abigail nodded to show that she didn't mind, and then she went into the house with Leon as a matter of course and sat down on the chair.

Leon was speechless after seeing this scene: “How can I change clothes if you stay here?”

"Is there a problem?" Abigail looked at Leon with a puzzled look and asked.

"I said I wanted to take a shower at the same time." Leon added.

"But you don't have a bathroom here. If you want to take a shower, you should go outside. If I wait here, won't it just avoid the problem of you taking a shower and changing clothes?" Abigail answered as a matter of course.

Leon was stunned when he heard this, then he thought about it and found that what Abigail said made sense. He really needed to go out to take a shower. He connected the hose left by Robin to the faucet and hung it under the eaves outside.

But it was strange that Abigail knew the details of his bath. However, seeing her yawning on the coffee table, Leon had no way of asking. He had to get a new set of clothes, fix the water pipe and go out.

You can put your clothes under your feet and step on them while taking a shower, so you can do both showering and washing clothes at the same time. Single men are so free and easy.

But when he thought that there was a young girl in the house just across the wall, Leon felt very strange. Fortunately, he had seen a lot of things, so he didn't let his imagination run wild. He just occasionally paid attention to whether there was a pair of cunning eyes in the corner.

After his body was washed clean and his clothes were wrinkled from being stepped on, but there was no mud left, Leon hung his changed clothes under the eaves, put on new clothes, and entered the wooden house with wet hair.

"Have you finished your shower?" Seeing Leon's appearance, Abigail looked up blankly and asked, "Did I just fall asleep?"

"No, just take a shower and get things done in five minutes. How long do you think it will take?" Leon asked Abigail in confusion.

"Five minutes? Are you sure it can be washed clean? You might not even be able to finish washing my hair in five minutes." Abigail looked at Leon with disgust when she heard this: "You don't think you can take a shower just by rinsing it with water."

Leon was amused when he heard this. He rolled up his sleeves to reveal his healthy wheat-colored arms and placed them in front of Abigail.

"You can rub it to see if you can get any mud out, or smell it to see if there's any strange smell. That'll tell you if I've done a good job."

Abigail was obviously confused by Leon's actions. She actually reached out and touched Leon's arm, and leaned forward to sniff it, but she reacted after a moment and pushed Leon's arm away with a blushing face.

"Okay, okay, I know you washed it very clean, let's go."

Then Abigail stood up and trotted out of the cabin. Leon watched Abigail's back with a playful smile on his face. His daily routine of teasing the little girl was over again.

Then Leon didn't waste any time. After taking a shower, he realized how hungry he was. He urgently needed a high-calorie meal to fill his stomach that had already begun to digest food.

I didn't see Abigail except for the wooden house. I walked towards the eastern exit of the farm for a while and saw Abigail standing in front of an old box-shaped orange car waving at me.

The appearance of this car reminded Leon of the Santana cars that the wealthy people in the village used to drive. He felt a little nostalgic and emotional at the same time.

However, these problems were comparable to the current predicament his stomach was facing, so Leon walked forward with ease, opened the passenger seat and sat down: "Let's go quickly, if you don't leave now, I think I will be unable to help but cut you up and cook you in the pot."

"You still have such a disgusting food habit." Abigail knew that Leon was joking, so she cooperated and teased Leon.

"Yeah, are you afraid?" Leon said perfunctorily.

"I'm not afraid. Besides, I think by that time, we won't know who will eat whom." Abigail said to Leon very proudly, then turned the key and turned around, driving this old car with poor shock absorption effect towards Pelican Town.

Abigail's words reminded Leon of a funny story about Abigail. That is, when you give Abigail diamonds in the game, she will say something ridiculous like "How do you know I'm hungry" after receiving the gift.

At one point, players joked that Abigail was a real iron-eating beast. Of course, this was just a bug in the feedback dialogue, and such an outrageous thing should not happen in reality.

But Abigail's words made Leon feel a little unconfident again, so while they were still on the road, Leon couldn't help but ask Abigail out of curiosity: "If I give you a diamond, what will you do with it?"

"Maybe someone will set it in a necklace or earrings." Abigail tilted her head and thought for a moment before answering.

Leon asked doubtfully: "Why not the ring?"

“Are you serious?” Abigail turned her head speechlessly and looked at Leon and complained: “Giving diamonds to make rings, are you trying to propose to me?”

"Hey, hey, hey, don't be distracted while driving. Pay attention to the front, or you're going to collide." Leon noticed that the vehicle's forward route had deviated slightly because Abigail turned her head, and hurriedly reminded Abigail.

After seeing Abigail regain her composure, he asked his doubts, "Do Pelican Town weddings also require diamond rings? Shouldn't it be something more representative of heritage and ritual, like a mermaid pendant?"

"I didn't realize you were quite familiar with Stardew Valley traditions, but this tradition hasn't been completed in a long time. It's because finding a mermaid pendant is difficult. Legend has it that the ghost of an old sailor who sells it will only appear when he meets someone he admires, offering the right to purchase the pendant. Everyone thinks it's just a story, so most proposals use diamond rings as tokens of marriage."

Abigail explained to Leon, and at the same time couldn't help but remind Leon: "By the way, don't have any special ideas about me. I haven't finished college yet, so don't think about love for the time being."
