"You just said how big this vegetable can grow? At least half a meter? Do you know how big half a meter is? I have never seen a vegetable that is half a meter long. Let alone me, even my grandfather.
I haven’t even seen grandpa’s grandpa!”
Lin Xiao shrugged:
"Believe it or not."
"When you said that, it reminded me."
Uncle Gen rolled his eyes twice, a hint of calculation flashed in his eyes, and he pointed at the green vegetable seedlings:
"Since you said this green vegetable can grow to half a meter, well, let's make a bet. If it grows to half a meter, I will call you grandpa. If it grows less than half a meter, you will take off your clothes and expose yourself to the sun on the beach for a day.
,How about it!"
As soon as he heard that he had to take off his clothes after losing, Yu Xilin immediately became anxious:
"Xiao Linzi, please don't agree, your identity..."
Lin Xiao blinked at her, signaling him not to be nervous.
"good!"
Lin Xiao readily agreed, looking eager to try.
Seeing this, Uncle Gen and others were filled with joy:
"Hahaha, little bastard, let's see if you still dare to be arrogant when the time comes!"
"Even if you put green vegetable seedlings in manure, they won't grow half a meter in size!"
"Look at his thin skin and tender flesh. I wonder if he will be burned to death by the sun by then!"
"Then he can't control it. It's not good for him to offend anyone, but he wants to offend Uncle Gen!"
"That is to say, he is looking for death!"
Listening to the discussions of these people, Lin Xiao had a sneer on his lips and thought to himself:
"A group of autumn grasshoppers!"
"Little Forest"
Yu Xilin pulled on Lin Xiao's sleeve and shook her head worriedly.
"It's okay, I'm sensible."
Lin Xiao said with a smile.
Yu Xilin bit her lip and looked at the one-third-acre green vegetable garden in front of her, feeling a strong uneasiness rising in her heart.
He believed in Lin Xiao's ability, but it was hard to say whether the green vegetables could grow that big!
"I'm going to lift the shit!"
Now, this is the only thing Yu Xilin can do for Lin Xiao.
Looking at Yu Xilin's retreating back, Lin Xiao felt a deep sense of guilt towards him.
If a young master from an aristocratic family had not met him, he would probably be the most popular drinker in the capital right now, right?!
Lin Xiao clenched his fists and swore secretly:
"No matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, I will never let you get hurt!"
Uncle Gen stood nearby. Seeing the determination on Lin Xiao's face, he smiled secretly and said to himself:
"Boy, don't blame me for not giving you a way to survive. You asked for it!"
…
These days, Yu Xilin has been focusing on the vegetable patch.
He takes care of the vegetables in the vegetable field every day as if he were caring for a priceless treasure.
Every day, he uses diluted manure to water the vegetables.
Uncle Gen, on the other hand, took the others to fish on the beach and enjoy the sea breeze. It was so pleasant!
In the morning more than ten days later, Yu Xilin came to the vegetable field as usual. When she saw the tall and straight vegetables that had grown overnight, she was filled with joy:
"Xiao Linzi! Xiao Linzi! Come and see!"
His excited voice did not wake up the sleeping Lin Xiao, but woke up Uncle Gen and others.
Listening to the sound, they thought it was the vegetables planted by Lin Xiao that were wilting, so they all walked towards the vegetable field with joking smiles.
"Oh, why are you making such a noise so early in the morning? I've already told you, how could you young people grow..."
Uncle Gen pretended to be surprised as he walked and talked, but he stopped before he could say the word "field".
Because, he saw the green vegetables growing happily and thickly!
"How...how could this happen?!"
"Oh my god, there are really half-meter-long vegetables!"
"My eyes are open. This... this... I am not dreaming!"
"These are actually vegetables? I thought they were weeds!"
Looking at the green vegetables in front of them, Uncle Gen and others were stunned and thought they were dreaming!
At this time, Lin Xiao walked over, rubbing her sleepy eyes. Seeing the dull-looking Uncle Gen and others surrounding the vegetable field, she knew she had won the bet.
"How's it going? Are the vegetables I planted okay?"
Lin Xiao asked with a proud look on his face.
Uncle Gen came back to his senses, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes. Without saying a word, he knelt down towards Lin Xiao with a thump, and made three "dong-dong-dong" sounds:
"I'm willing to admit defeat, you will be my grandfather from now on!"
Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing and quickly helped Uncle Gen up:
"Uncle Gen, what are you doing?! It's just an irrelevant bet, why should you take it seriously?"
"This is not an irrelevant bet, but our hope!"
As he spoke, Uncle Gen’s eyes turned red:
"You are our hope! With you here, we don't have to worry about eating vegetables!"
Other farmers also agreed.
"Yes, yes, I have been growing vegetables for so many years, and today I am completely convinced!"
"Sir, you are the immortal sent by God to save us!"
…
Seeing the excited expressions of everyone, Lin Xiao felt a warm current rush through his heart:
"Actually, you can also grow vegetables like this. If you are willing, I can teach you!"
"Yes! Of course we are willing!"
Uncle Gen agreed without hesitation, and the others also agreed:
"Yes, yes, we are willing! We are willing to learn to grow vegetables!"
"This is simply a gift from God!"
"We are willing to grow more and better vegetables with you!"
Lin Xiao nodded with satisfaction:
"Okay, let's come one by one, first..."
Hong Ye, who was delivering the meal, saw everyone following Lin Xiao and humbly asking for advice on growing vegetables. Their faces turned red and their eyes shone with excitement!
Uncle Gen was also among them. He was closest to Lin Xiao, like a little fan girl, with admiration in his eyes.
She rubbed her eyes in disbelief, making sure that this was not her imagination.
When Uncle Gen saw Hongye coming, he quickly ran forward, pulled Hongye and walked towards Lin Xiao's vegetable patch:
"Miss Hongye, you're here! Mr. Lin has grown vegetables that are bigger than soup bowls. Come and take a look!"
After hearing Uncle Gen's words, Hongye's eyes suddenly lit up. She ran over quickly and saw a piece of green vegetable leaves, and her eyes almost fell out!
She looked at Nanoha in disbelief and exclaimed:
"Such a big green vegetable, I, am I not dreaming?!"
"As long as you follow my method, I guarantee that each of you will be able to grow such large vegetables!"
Lin Xiao vowed to do so.
"I will invite my lord to come and take a look. He will be very happy to see this!"
Hong Ye couldn't wait to turn around and ran out of the vegetable field.
Soon, the lord came. The moment he saw the green vegetables, he was stunned and his mouth unconsciously became an O-shape!
He asked with a trembling voice:
"You planted this?"
"yes!"
"Hahaha, good boy, I really saw the right person!"
The lord laughed heartily.
Smiling, his eyes became moist and tears welled up in his eyes.
He knew that from this moment on, their island would usher in new changes!
