Simply tasting delicious food is already an enjoynt in itself.
Let alone doing so under the envious gazes of a group of single, hungry research geeks.
Tang Qingying was experiencing this kind of feeling for the first ti.
Not bad at all.
The portion of the strawberry layer cake was too generous. Even after Han Qiwu worked up an appetite, he could only manage half of it. Tang Qingying only ate a quarter before she was too full.
As Tang Qingying let out a satisfied burp, a female colleague beside her subconsciously swallowed her saliva.
She was just about to say sothing, but when she looked up, Tang Qingying had already skillfully packed up the remaining strawberry layer cake and happily walked off to change clothes.
The sound of swallowing was all that remained in the hall.
Before long, Han Qiwu, fresh from watering the plants, heard his phone ding twice. He pulled it out and saw a smiling expression appear on his face.
"The strawberry cake was so good! Now I’ve got both dinner and lunch sorted. Next ti, I’ll bring you sothing tasty too! Heading to the lab now, hehe."
Han Qiwu thought about it briefly and replied with a text: "You should still eat proper als at lunch. Eating one flavor all the ti gets boring. It’s important to have variety in your diet. Next ti I’ll let you try so mulberries."
After sending the ssage, he walked over to the mulberry tree, picked about ten fresh mulberries, washed them, took a photo of their glistening, vibrant appearance, and sent it along with the text.
You can’t resist wanting to eat them!
Putting away his phone, he headed into the house and turned on the television.
[Weather Forecast]
Tomorrow: Rainy
[Life Tips]
Promises should be kept.
[Almanac]
Good for accumulation; Avoid forgetting
[Shennong’s Cookbook]
Shennong is resting
Glancing at the weather forecast, Han Qiwu silently made plans. A rainy day—it’s a good opportunity to go fishing, replenish resources, and prepare for the fishing competition. The life tips and almanac info were intriguing.
Promises?
Seems like the only promise I’ve made was to supervise Xiao Shu in doing his howork, right?
Avoid forgetting....
How am I supposed to avoid forgetting when I’ve already forgotten what it was?
A mory paradox?
He shook his head helplessly, walked to the spring, and took out the half bottle of ice spring water he obtained yesterday. After taking a sip, he carefully poured it into the spring’s center.
Glug glug glug.
Absorbing the ice spring water, the surface of the spring first erupted with fine bubbles, followed by a layer of cold mist encircling it, which soon dissipated.
[Ice Spring absorbed. Source Spring is now upgraded to produce 5.5 portions of spring water daily. Upgrade effect applies starting tomorrow.]
"Not bad." Han Qiwu bent down, collected today’s freshly produced spring water, pouring three portions onto the giant fly trap with willow-like leaves, and two portions near the welcoming pine tree.
After absorbing the spring water, the giant fly trap instantly sprouted two large, wide leaves resembling banana leaves. The tiny flowers on top blossod consecutively, exuding a faint fragrance.
Han Qiwu leaned closer and cautiously fanned his hand at the flowers to savor the scent.
So fragrant.
The heat lingering in his body was imdiately cald.
An exceptionally effective cooling redy!
Not only that, but three or four dark cliff bees were drawn to the floral scent, diving into the flowers to gather nectar.
"Looks like we finally have a proper dicinal herb at ho." Han Qiwu smiled contentedly and checked on the mist mushrooms nearby.
Thriving well.
Even the mist caterpillars on the tree had hatched, slowly removing pests from the tree.
Honestly, those mist caterpillars seem kind of cute.
Shifting his attention, Han Qiwu went to the miniature grove nearby.
Ten maple trees, ten cypresses, ten willows.
"Still no nut-bearing trees though." Han Qiwu sighed. He’d have to ask Aunt Hong i next ti.
She would probably know where to find so hickory nut trees nearby.
As for cashews, Han Qiwu wasn’t interested—they were too much hassle to collect, and the juice is corrosive.
Not worth it.
After cutting so trees, Han Qiwu headed over to the cliff bees’ hive.
His excitent rose upon seeing a large jar-like honey icon already displayed on the hive. The honey was a deep color with so dark spots mixed in.
[dium Blended Cliff Honey (Silver Star Quality)]
[Stamina 400]
[HP 300]
[Special Effect – Nourishing: Blended cliff honey can promote animal growth]
[Note: The special effects of blended cliff honey vary each ti depending on the pollen collected during honey production.]
"Varies every ti? It’s basically like a blind box!" Han Qiwu was pleasantly surprised. It seed having a mixed variety of flowers nearby was advantageous.
Maybe the next cliff honey would have a cooling effect?
Picking up the honey, Han Qiwu quickly scooped out a spoonful to taste before the Little Prince noticed.
The sweet honey carried a faint pear aroma.
Perhaps the cliff bees had collected pollen from pear flowers on the mountain.
Such stamina it provides!
Thinking about its special effect, Han Qiwu took the honey to Jilei Mountain and scooped out half to add to Little Red’s feed trough, along with dragon grass and alfalfa.
A super-nutritious al!
Let’s see if you won’t produce milk after eating this!
Catching a whiff of the aroma, Little Red’s big eyes imdiately sparkled. Before eating, it even reached out to nuzzle Han Qiwu’s shoulder with its head.
Han Qiwu grinned and patted Little Red’s head, saying, "Eat up, and make sure to produce plenty of milk. Maybe we can make so cheese too."
Little Red: "....."
After feeding Little Red, Han Qiwu went to the side room to fetch the raspberry jam and pickled peppers, casually adding mulberries and strawberries to the mix.
These two fruit jams were more common. He wondered how the flavors from the canned jars would turn out.
Really looking forward to it.
Afterward, Han Qiwu collected egg yolk mayonnaise jars at ho, refilled them with raw materials one by one.
There was quite a stockpile of mayonnaise from the past two days. He kept a few jars for himself and tossed the rest into the selling box.
This ti—jar and all.
Finishing up these basic chores at ho, he grabbed materials from the storage box, picked up his fishing rod, and headed to the secret realm.
Ti to earn money for building a rabbit pen.
After that, I’ll head to Mist Forest to gather wood and construct an interdiate chicken coop.
It was cloudy today. The breeze by the seaside was pleasantly refreshing. Han Qiwu was lucky—he found several pieces of red coral even before reaching the secret realm.
When he arrived at the entrance of the secret realm, he noticed a glimr under a nearby rock. Walking closer, he discovered a large sea star.
The yellow sea star had a rough surface and looked fresh.
[Sea star]
[Stamina 30]
[HP 40]
[Note: The taste of sea star is decent]
"Looks like I can try making sea star egg custard for lunch." Han Qiwu happily pocketed it. With good eggs at ho, many seafood ingredients could now be stead into custard dishes.
"Hope I can reel in a few lobsters later." He touched the large rock and shalessly made a wish.
