Chapter 181: 【180】Tasty and Pretty Fisherman 31 (Third Update)
When Yan Qing voiced his skepticism, Xiao Yu just looked at him, feigning ignorance with a puzzled expression.
"Huh? You say wheat and rice can’t be planted in winter? I didn’t know that, these seeds were prepared by my mother. I saw that cabbages could grow, so I thought wheat and rice might grow too, so I planted them. Look, they are all growing pretty well,"
Yan Qing, being a scholar, naturally knew the growth patterns of crops, but after hearing what Xiao Yu said, he became puzzled. He even left his tent to inspect the soil and the plants, but of course, found nothing.
Then he thought, could it be the unique soil of the island causing this? He even asked Xiao Yu for some seeds. Xiao Yu gave them readily but knew in her heart that, no matter where he took them, they would not grow because they were castrated wheat seeds from the "space," edible, but not viable for planting. Even if they grew, they would bear no fruit.
In the end, Yan Qing had taken twenty doses of medicine and made it through. His body fully recovered, and he felt no more discomfort. He expressed his thanks, quite pleased.
When Xiao Yu saw Yan Qing getting up in the morning and swinging a branch as if practicing swordsmanship, she thought about it and then straightforwardly asked,
"Since you are grateful to us for saving your life, would you be willing to teach my younger brother martial arts?"
Yan Qing paused for an instant and turned to look at Xiao Ze, who was also looking at his sister in confusion. Xiao Yu, however, was gazing at Yan Qing and asked again.
"Besides martial arts, I believe you’re also well-educated. I hope you can tutor my brother. I don’t want him to spend his life on this island. If there’s a chance in the future, could you take him with you?"
At last, Ze reacted, "Sis, I won’t leave. Wherever you are, I’ll be there."
"Fool, a man’s ambitions should extend in all directions. You are our parents’ hope; how can you spend your life cooped up on this tiny island? Moreover, you carry the future of our Shen Family. Therefore, following Brother Yan is your true fortune."
Yan Qing did not refuse Xiao Yu but looked at her deeply, "You have such a high opinion of me? Aren’t you afraid I won’t keep my promise? Or that I might deceive you?"
Xiao Yu scoffed, "Then you’re underestimating yourself. The fact that you survived shows your strength. If it had been anyone else, given the way I administered the medicine, they probably wouldn’t have survived past the second day. But you made it, which means you have a good foundation. If my brother follows you, I can rest easy."
"So, you intend not to leave with us?"
Xiao Yu shook her head, "I think this island is nice. We work from sunrise to sunset. I enjoy this kind of life. Besides, if you have the means to leave, you’ll have the means to come back. It’s not like we’ll never see each other again, no need for such sentimentality."
Yan Qing looked at Xiao Yu with admiration, "Among all the girls I’ve met, you’re the one who knows best what she needs. Very clear-headed, I respect that!"
"I don’t deserve the praise. Just tell me, do you agree or not?"
Yan Qing, with a wry expression in his phoenix eyes, "After all you’ve said, if I were to refuse, wouldn’t I be condemned for being heartless?"
Seeing that he agreed, Xiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief and then smacked Xiao Ze on the back of his head.
"Silly brother, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and pay your respects to your master. Kneel down and kowtow!"
Xiao Ze was still clueless when his sister pushed him down. Yan Qing quickly intervened.
"No, that won’t do. I’m not qualified to be your master. If you truly wish to learn, I can teach you, but let’s skip the formalities of taking on a master. If the opportunity arises in the future, I’ll help you find a renowned teacher. Does that sound good?"
