A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 724 Don’t Mislead the Young
"Aren't you hot?"

Robin, who was planning to use the toilet in Leon's house, just walked over and noticed Leon busy working in the field under the sun with fertilizer in his left hand and a hoe in his right hand.

What surprised her was that even though she was under the shade of the roof, she was still sweating profusely, but there was not a single drop of sweat on Leon's face.

"If you keep calm, you will feel cooler." Lyon straightened up and replied, and at the same time sprinkled the last bit of fertilizer in his hand into the soil that had just been loosened.

Robin rolled his eyes, obviously not believing it, but he didn't ask any more questions and went straight into the house to the bathroom.

The work continued. After going to the bathroom, Robin returned to the barn whose frame had just been built, while Leon was still loosening the soil and adding fertilizer in the field. He was busy until the sun was high in the sky, then he put away the hoe in his hand.

The whole morning was spent on this, and now all the soil fertilization work has been basically completed. After looking at the time displayed on his mobile phone, Leon left the field, went into the house to wash his hands and change into a pair of clean shoes before leaving the house again.

"Here, do you want to have lunch together?"

Coming to the barn, Leon handed Robin a bottle of wheat juice refrigerated in the refrigerator and asked Robin.

"I brought some food, but I wouldn't mind if there was a lunch that tasted better than bread." Robin took the wheat juice, opened it, and drank it all in one gulp. Only then did he have time to answer Leon's question.

"Okay, I'll prepare one for you."

After confirming Robin's share, Leon returned to the house and started to pull noodles. When the noodles were formed, he put them into water to cook. At the same time, Leon was not idle. He found eggs and carrots, boiled a little water, poured in the beaten eggs, boiled them, took them out, and shredded the carrots and added them to the eggs.

Prepare the sauce, pour in hot oil and stir, set aside, take out the ice cubes from the refrigerator and add them to the clean water, take out the cooked noodles and rinse them with cold water, then take them out and place them on a plate, pour the boiled eggs and carrots on the noodles, and finally add the sauce and stir.

Two bowls of simple cold noodles are ready.

"Robin, dinner is ready."

Placing the cold noodles on the table, Leon opened the door and shouted in the direction of the barn.

The powerful shout fell into Robin's ears very clearly. He immediately put down the tools in his hands and trotted into the house.

"Brown noodles?"

Robin, who was originally planning to wash his hands, was instantly attracted by the cold noodles on the table.

"That's the color of soy sauce," Leon corrected.

"Pasta?" Robin asked curiously.

"No, you'll know soon." Leon shook his head, then urged Robin to wash his hands and face. After all, he had just come from work, and now Robin's arms and face were covered with black and white spots.

After quickly washing her hands and face, Robin sat down at the dining table, picked up a fork and began to taste the noodles she had never seen before. The first bite made her fall in love with the icy and slightly spicy taste.

"Every time I eat the food you cook, it gives me the same surprise as opening a blind box."

"I have to eat cold noodles in the summer, but unfortunately I don't have potato starch on hand. It's also very troublesome to make it myself. Otherwise, I could make some jelly." Lyon has become immune to this kind of compliment. After all, no one would be stingy with their praise after eating the food he cooks.

He regretted that the kitchen utensils available and the ingredients available for purchase were too limited. A good cook cannot cook without rice. If he wanted to make many snacks, the cost would be too high.

"If there is a chance, I would like to send Demetrius to your side to learn from him. Although his scientific diet is healthy, it is not really delicious." Robin did not have the habit of eating quietly, so while slurping noodles, he could not help but chat with Leon.

"I can't teach you." Lyon denied it bluntly.

If it was Guts, Leon would have lined the streets to welcome him, but if it was Demetrius, forget it. They were not familiar with each other, and both of them disliked each other.

"What about Maru?" Robin changed his choice.

"No, I won't teach her. I can't let these things delay her scientific research." Lyon refused again, but this time he was much more tactful.

"I came up with this idea because I'm worried that Maru will be obsessed with all this endless knowledge. Even though she's a genius, she's still an ordinary girl. She can't stay in her room studying and researching all her life."

Talking about this, Robin felt a little melancholy. After all, her two children seemed to have more or less some problems with their personalities and lifestyles.

"I remember you two used to have a good relationship, why haven't I seen you playing together recently?"

"Well, maybe it's because everyone is busy." Leon also found that he hadn't seen Maru for a long time, even though they were in the same town.

"If possible, Leon, I still hope you can communicate with Marudo. Her social circle is too small. As far as I know, the only people in town who have a good relationship with her seem to be Penny Harvey and you. I still want her to go out more with your help.

After all, life is more than just scientific research and endless knowledge."

Robin looked at Leon seriously and spoke.

Leon also noticed Robin's intention, but he just smiled and didn't say anything.

Maru is a good girl, but her old father is somewhat unpleasant. When Leon had a good relationship with Maru before, he had been hostile to Demetrius for a long time. This black-skinned daughter slave had too strong a desire for control and too much protection. Leon did not intend to make himself unhappy.

The important thing is that he now feels that there are too many girls in his social circle. If he adds Maru to the team, it will be too yin-filled and inappropriate.

It would be best to let the genius scientist girl indulge in scientific experiments. Leon felt that he should not mislead the young people.

Robin had obviously realized Leon's attitude, and he stopped talking. After finishing his cold noodles, he took the initiative to help clean up the table and tableware, and never discussed the matter again.

Leon was also happy and relaxed. While Robin was busy, he started rummaging through the treasure chest. He had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he planned to go fishing.

After buying the magic bait, he tried it once at the beach, but the catch was average. Lyon also wanted to try fishing in mountain lakes, rivers in town, and ponds in the coal forest.

It is also to complete the fish tank offering package for the old community center.

Now in the tea machine collection package, the crops are already in the preparation stage. Once the crops in the fields mature, we can basically complete the entire crop sacrifice catalog.

Lyon is also on the way to completing the remaining animal collection packs and craftsman collection packs. After the animal shed is built, he can prepare them in advance. As for the craftsman collection pack, with the help of fruit bats, Lyon has collected four types of fruit trees: apples, apricots, pomegranates and cherries. For the remaining one, Lyon also plans to use a canning jar to make strawberry jam, which can be regarded as satisfying the list of five sacrifices.

If everything goes well, Lyon will be able to repair the greenhouse before winter. By then, the farming will probably have reached level eight, and the recipe for the small barrel will have been unlocked. He will plant two crops of star fruit in the greenhouse, and use some land to plant ancient fruits as a reserve of materials for the seed making machine. Finally, he will fill the greenhouse with ancient fruits.

In this way, there will be enough ancient fruit reserves for making wine in the future. This may become the most profitable project on Lyon's farm in the future, and Lyon will naturally not miss it.
