Chapter 72: Chapter 72: Sending Strawberries

After Professor Hao left, Xia Yue picked a strawberry, wiped it with a tissue she carried, and began eating it. After all, there wasn’t any random stuff scattered around here.

While eating, Xia Yue kept picking more and found each one better than the last. Before she knew it, she had filled up her basket.

"Seems like it’s a bit too much." Xia Yue looked at the strawberries in the basket and glanced around. No one was looking over her way, but she still spoke a bit shyly.

"Indeed. Are you planning to send all of these back home?" Yan Mo appeared beside her the next second, looking at the basket at her feet.

"How do you walk without making a sound...you scared me." Xia Yue almost jumped, looking at him curiously as she said this.

"I’m used to it." Yan Mo smiled lightly.

"Professor Hao said you could help me send them. Let’s send them now, make sure they’re refrigerated immediately. They’ll spoil otherwise." Xia Yue looked at him as she instructed.

"Is this enough? I heard you complaining about three or four different families yesterday." Yan Mo looked at the basket by her feet, which held at least twenty strawberries. It might be enough for one or two households, but for three or four, it seemed a bit short, so he asked.

"Right, it does seem a bit less. Let me pick another basket. Could you get me one, please? Then I’ll send them all together to my brother, who can distribute them to my grandparents and aunts." Xia Yue thought it over and agreed, while four or five strawberries were equivalent to a whole gift box for some, this quantity seemed a bit low for a gift.

"Wait a moment. I’ll bring you a crate. There’s plenty here, so pick as much as you want," Yan Mo said.

"Alright." Xia Yue wouldn’t refuse. Initially, she felt a little guilty about picking too many strawberries that she didn’t grow herself to give away. Still, now that the person in charge, Yan Mo, said it was okay, she had no qualms.

It didn’t take long for Yan Mo to return, carrying a large white crate usually used for delivering vegetables.

"It’s so big?" Xia Yue said, surprised.

"It doesn’t need to be full." Yan Mo replied.

"Alright then, I’ll help myself." Xia Yue laughed.

The crate Yan Mo brought was lined with some straw to protect the strawberries from getting squashed or damaged.

Xia Yue first transferred the strawberries from the basket into the crate before heading back to pick more with it.

"What if I pick some more, and my brother can share some with your family?" Xia Yue suggested to Yan Mo, who was now picking with her.

"Is that okay?" Yan Mo asked.

"I am sending them to my family, but they can also give them away as gifts." Xia Yue smiled.

"Well, in that case, pick a lot. We have many people at home." Yan Mo laughed.

"One crate should last them quite some days. It’s not tasty if they’re kept for too long. We can send them more after they finish, or they can place an order later. This will also drive sales." Xia Yue explained.

"That’s true. We’re not short of money, anyways." Yan Mo nodded in agreement.

In the end, the two picked almost thirty pounds of strawberries into the crate.

Yan Mo asked for help to carry it away for shipping.

Xia Yue gave him the address of Xia Yu’s company.

Then, she sent a message to Xia Yu.

Yuexia Touxian: Big brother, I’m sending you some strawberries, please receive them. These strawberries are super delicious, and they’re quite big. Once you receive them, send some over to aunties, grandparents.

Yuexia Touxian: Make sure to keep some for yourself. They’re really tasty.

Yuexia Touxian: Also, send around ten to twenty to the Yan family. They’re from Yan Mo, because of some reasons, they can only be sent from here.
