Cai Xiaolian walked over and stood with Gu Xin. She looked at the vegetable field. “What’s wrong with the vegetables in the field? They’re growing well!”

Gu Xin looked at her mother in surprise. “Mother, we only planted the seeds of the cabbage and radishes last month. They only ripen in two months. It’s only been less than a month. And the eggplant and cucumber. We picked the last batch last month, and they’ve grown back!”

Cai Xiaolian was shocked.

Oh no, this was the fourth day since she came here. She hadn’t paid attention to these things in the past four days.

Besides, she didn’t know the growth cycle of cabbage and radish at all. In her memory, she had planted the seeds last month.

Seeing Cai Xiaolian looking at the ground without saying anything, Gu Xin thought she was as surprised as she was. She held Cai Xiaolian’s hand and glanced at the door to make sure she had closed it, then she whispered, “Mom, we can’t tell anyone about this. I suspect that there’s something strange in our house that caused the vegetables in the ground to grow out all of a sudden.”

The strange Cai Xiaolian felt a little guilty!

Gu Xin continued, “However, the vegetables are so good. I ate a cucumber just now, so I’m totally fine. Mom, we have vegetables to eat. We mustn’t tell anyone else, or else people will think it’s weird. Mom, I’ll dig up some radishes and cabbage and send them to Grandpa and Grandma. Recently, my cousin has sent a lot of cabbage over.”

“Grandpa said that we should repay kindness with kindness and return the favor. We can’t accept their cabbage just because Grandpa and Grandma are Dad and Mom.”

“Grandpa and Grandma don’t know when we planted the seeds. They won’t suspect us even if we take the radish and cabbage. We can’t take the eggplant and cucumber for now. We’ll wait for Dad to come back and ask him for his opinion. Mom, what do you think?”

After Cai Xiaolian appeared, Gu Xin was not so worried and scared anymore. Instead, she was in a good mood.

Recently, her family had been eating either wild vegetables or vegetables sent from the old residence. She was already embarrassed. Now that they had vegetables in their field, how could she not be happy?

Cai Xiaolian came back to her senses and nodded. “Oh, oh, okay.”

After receiving a positive answer, Gu Xin quickly went to get a kitchen knife to cut the cabbage.

Cai Xiaolian’s mood was very complicated as she pulled out the radishes.

This shouldn’t be!

This family of three had just transmigrated here. Why were they even welcome at the vegetable field?

Gu Xin’s small backpack was soon full. She went to put away the kitchen knife and ran out. “Mom, I’m going to Grandpa and Grandma’s house first. I’ll be back soon.”

Cai Xiaolian forced a smile. “Go!”

Gu Xin carried the small backpack and left the house happily.

Cai Xiaolian closed the door and ran into Gu Nian’s room without a hitch.

Gu Nian had just finished putting on her clothes and was so cold that she was shivering. When she saw Cai Xiaolian appear with a hesitant look on her face, she asked curiously, “Mother, what are you talking about with Xin Xin? Why are your hands covered in mud? Oh right, I heard someone knocking on the door just now. Who was it?”

Cai Xiaolian pursed her lips, her brows furrowed and loosened. She let go and furrowed her brows again. Finally, she sighed and said, “Nian Nian, the arrival of the three strange souls has stimulated the growth of the vegetables in the vegetable garden and made them grow quickly!”

Gu Nianzhi: “?”

Cai Xiaolian saw her confused expression and reached out to pull her out. “Look, the vegetables in the field are growing so beautifully! Xin Xin said that the last batch of cucumber and eggplant was harvested last month, and the radish and cabbage seeds were scattered last month.”
