Interstellar Number One Farmer: I Only Want To Farm!-Chapter 433 - 133: Aftermath of Trivial Matters (Part 3)

Chapter 433: Chapter 133: Aftermath of Trivial Matters (Part 3)

Su Xiaocai’s face hurt: the boomerang flew fast and accurately.

It was also a last resort, because putting two turtles in the school infirmary wasn’t suitable; the place wasn’t big and the tank took up a fifth of the consultation room.

The students would come over and feed them randomly, and he was worried they’d overfeed them, and then his little sister would cry and demand compensation from him.

So, the two turtles had to move, and Ji Li initially thought of bringing them home, but took the opportunity to settle them in the laboratory instead.

Among those helping with the gardening, Ji Heng was the last to finish. He filled the soil with the little robots and checked if the irrigation system was working properly.

His serious work and careful care of the plants were very attractive.

Hu Ping, grinning, said, "Looks like Mr. Xue missed out on the best husband candidate." Men understand men best; Ji Heng, who seemed like a straight guy, was actually the easiest to teach.

Xue Huiyi was focused on creating a gentle persona while using methods of coercion to help Ji Heng make a name for himself, which only sparked strong rebellious feelings in a guy like him.

Su Xiaocai nodded in agreement.

As Ji Heng came closer, Ji Li, showing rare concern about family matters, asked, "How are Mom and Dad doing recently?"

"Dad’s the same as always. Mom’s having insomnia from anger and wants to settle things with Xue Huiyi. My dad arranged for a doctor to give her psychological therapy. But I think she needs something else to distract her, otherwise, she keeps thinking Xue Huiyi is out to ruin us."

"Auntie likes gardening, right? Why not come over to my place for a while? Those old ladies in my village are experts in mental therapy," Su Xiaocai suggested with a smile.

Anyone who’s been to Su’s Planet knows about the village ladies Su Xiaocai mentioned.

The old men and women never suppress their feelings and can curse everything out.

"Get the things bothering you out, and you’ll feel calm. Don’t worry, I can ask them to arrange some scenic but easy work for her."

"Maybe Mom would be put off by that," Ji Heng swallowed nervously, unsure if it was possible.

Ji Li said, "I’ll talk to her."

Great, Ji Li is good at persuading people.

Hu Ping and the others could already imagine how Auntie would be transformed after being sent over.

Ji Li continued, "Have you heard from Xue Huiyi recently? Did you send all the things back to Mom?"

Ji Heng replied, "Xue Huiyi’s family locked her up, so some things couldn’t be returned. She took a lot of jewelry and expensive clothes to pawn."

Liu Xun smacked his lips, "Isn’t Xue Family very wealthy?"

Hu Ping said, "You don’t understand rich families. Not everyone is as generous as my dad. Ask Ji Heng; how much allowance does he get a month?"

"I get fifty thousand a month. For more expensive stuff, I have to ask for extra."

Families that focus on upbringing ensure their kids develop a proper concept of money.

They don’t let their kids waste money without limits.

"Fifty thousand is already a lot. I only get five thousand a month," Liu Xun said as he pitifully counted on his fingers. His family wasn’t poor, but compared to everyone here...

Fortunately, he had two brothers in hardship, Pan Mingjie and Li Shanchun.

The two didn’t catch his signal and quietly listened to the gossip.

Ji Heng continued, "Dad and Mom are asking the Xue Family for monetary compensation."

If Xue Huiyi hadn’t secretly sold those clothes and jewelry, Ji’s mother wouldn’t have pursued this part of the money.

She was angrier that Xue Huiyi didn’t appreciate this goodwill.

Wanting her two sons dead was enough to cross the line, and for such a rich Xue family heiress to secretly sell things for cash would be looked down upon in any wealthy family.

Ji’s mother wouldn’t go around broadcasting Xue Huiyi’s conduct, but the housekeeper could.

So many who wanted to marry into the Xue Family stopped being restless, fearing they’d invite trouble.

Everyone was relieved knowing the Xue family had restricted Xue Huiyi’s movements.

"Did she participate in the solo soldier competition?"

"Don’t know, probably not."

"If she did, her fans would definitely have promoted it widely."

"I also wonder what to eat tonight; I kind of miss last night’s snack."

"Just reminisce about it then. We might be rich, but eating ten thousand worth of food each time will still bankrupt us brothers."

"Haven’t even had lunch yet and already thinking about dinner? I hope lunch comes with Zhe’ergen."

"Nooo!"

The topic shifted to food, and they had already finished today’s competition.

They had training in the afternoon and classes at night, attending Feng Wansha’s analysis class.

Su Xiaocai also had to give lessons to military trainees.

Those smart people were all problem students who nearly drove her crazy.

At lunchtime, they moved together to the dining hall, and Ji Li, walking last, asked Su Xiaocai, "What’s the use of those sensitive fruits of yours?"

"You noticed?" Su Xiaocai said, "They have medicinal value. Once confirmed, the value could easily affect their origin, so we’re planting them in advance as a precaution."

On the last trip to the Planet 022 battleship, Su Xiaocai kept whispering about the sensitive fruits, making it hard not to notice.

Ji Li glanced back at the sensitive fruits swaying in the wind, with their small, cute fruit hanging on them, bitter and hard to eat.

Medicinal value?

He pondered deeply.

"If you want to increase production, you can cooperate with President Hu. He has quite an insight into planting and is trustworthy."

"But I want to work with you. With you involved, I’m sure I won’t be cheated," Su Xiaocai said sincerely.

"You want someone to share the pressure." Ji Li stated matter-of-factly, expressionless.

"You found out, huh." Su Xiaocai tilted her head, "So are you in?"

"I’m in." Not only because of Su Xiaocai’s connections with the military, but the good stuff she comes up with every few days is worth it to collaborate.

"Good buddy."

Su Xiaocai knew well that collaborating with others wasn’t a bad thing.

The military’s power was too great, and she was still young, and Admiral Bai was nearing his physical peak.

If Vice Admiral Bai couldn’t succeed, how would the newly appointed admiral feel if they didn’t like her?

With the Ji Family as a partner, at least she wouldn’t be suddenly crushed. Besides, she still had a bunch of respectful students who could hold off those invisible enemies at critical moments.

Passing by the experimental area, the previously mentioned military trainees gathered, looking enthralled at the samples Bai Fu sent over.

Bai Fu’s production line was already set up, and the first set of complete samples was out.

Su Xiaocai admired Bai Fu’s efficiency.

"Teacher Su, can we... can we touch it?" The old men sincerely asked. The creation spoke to their hearts, a masterpiece of great accomplishment.

Every time the elder generation called her teacher, she felt out of sorts.

She was younger than Ai Shengping over both lifetimes, not to mention several older professors.

"You can call me Xiao Cai or Xiao Su, really, don’t call me Teacher Su."

Switching titles constantly, it never settled.

The elders put on glasses, kindly and gently saying, "No need to be modest. Those who excel come first, and you are worthy of being called teacher by us."

"More capable than the professors. Should we call her Su Shen?"

Su Xiaocai shot Hu Ping a look, "Stop shooting your mouth off, just because we won today doesn’t mean you’re off training. If you don’t fight the virtual Rubik’s cube, go battle the simulated Demon Eye Worm People. You can only use exoskeletons to fight. If you don’t win, you won’t be in the next team competition."

"Nooo," Hu Ping whined pitifully, wanting to give the coach a hug, but Ji Li grabbed his ear and pulled him away, "Don’t try to take advantage."

"I’m not taking advantage." Hu Ping, with his sly fox eyes, smirked quietly, "You’re watching too closely. As soon as I touch the coach, I would know what an over-the-shoulder throw feels like."

Ji Li said, "Scram!"

Hu Ping happily dragged Ji Heng away, looking all roguish, making Ji Li both amused and annoyed.

Ji Heng glanced back at Su Xiaocai several times, seeing her already turning to stand with the military trainees, explaining the soon-to-be-launched new product to them.

He had no choice but to leave with Hu Ping.

The mechanical limb products were temporarily only available to the military because even with just military demand, supply struggled to meet it. Admiral Bai handed Bai Fu a new list every day.

There were too many soldiers wanting to return to duty. Since Planet 10’s Insect Man crisis, even if they didn’t return, the military had to help solve their livelihood issues.

Having flexible limbs made everything more convenient.
