Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Two Bags of Vegetables
Two bags had already been packed before.
"I’ll take this one!"
Ye Mianmian wasn’t suspicious; such items were only used by the two of them.
The two men definitely wouldn’t fight over it, it was essentially personal stuff.
Once Jhiang Yuan left the house, she headed straight for the safety passage.
Using a flashlight, she could see the surrounding area clearly.
After making sure there were no issues, she quickly switched out the items.
She now held two large woven bags in her hands filled entirely with vegetables.
The space was really useful; the cucumbers and eggplants she had planted before had grown quite tall.
She would need to find something to support those climbing plants soon.
She had to admit that the plants in her space were thriving, probably because of the well.
The water quality might be good, not only growing quickly but also yielding fruits that were especially tender and tasty.
As she entered the code just about to open the door, it swung open from the inside.
Seeing her daughter, Qin Yue immediately reached out and hugged her neck.
"It’s good that you’re safe, it’s good that you’re safe!"
Jhiang Yuan was still holding the items; her mom must have seen her on the surveillance.
Indeed, being cautious had its advantages.
"Mom, let’s talk inside."
Realizing late, Qin Yue quickly responded.
"Yes, let’s talk inside."
Seeing what her daughter was carrying, she immediately went to take them.
Once inside the house, Jhiang Yuan could finally catch her breath.
"Sweetheart, you must be exhausted. Wait, mom will pour you some water to warm you up."
Jhiang Yuan didn’t stop her; she also headed back to her bedroom, as the gear she was wearing was unnecessary now.
Seeing her go back, Qin Yue brought her another pot of hot water for her to wash.
But, she didn’t have the time.
She could only dampen a towel quickly to wipe the wet spots.
Then she changed into a fleece-lined thermal underwear set and wore a black mid-length parka over it.
The coat was cinched at the waist, which not only looked neat but also warm.
It was also convenient for her to move and work, and she changed into a pair of comfortable snow boots.
"Oh my..."
Her mother’s voice came in, and Jhiang Yuan, having tidied up, quickly went to check.
"What’s wrong, mom?"
It turned out Qin Yue had opened the two bags; Jhiang Yuan ran over anxiously.
"Shh, Mom, keep your voice down."
"Sweetheart, why so many vegetables? This is too much!"
"Mom, we went to the floral market this time. There were many hydroponic plants kept in warming boxes.
One vendor was specifically selling these vegetables; I picked them secretly, so don’t spill the beans."
After the initial excitement, Qin Yue was left feeling thrilled.
"I know, I know, don’t worry sweetheart, I definitely won’t say anything.
But why would a floral market grow vegetables; are they for sale?"
Ah, this...
Jhiang Yuan had no choice but to make up a story.
"Of course, mom, you don’t know, but cultivating vegetables can be even more profitable than selling flowers.
Nowadays, kids grow up in cities, away from nature.
But growing vegetables is different. This sense of being self-sufficient, fully clothed and fed, is something that schools and parents highly endorse.
You wouldn’t believe it; these vegetables are fine, but those peppers, tiny tomatoes, and so on."
"They’re all one pot each, if only there was more time, I’d definitely have made more."
Jhiang Yuan intentionally exaggerated, and Qin Yue naturally believed her without a doubt.
She picked her own vegetables, including the bamboo shoots and persimmon peppers she got from the ’Zero-Dollar Purchase’ vegetable shop by the door earlier.
Finding an opportunity finally, she of course wanted to make a match of it.
As for radishes and cabbages, never mind those, there were still plenty at home.
She often ate those too, it was appropriate to change flavors.
"Okay, mom, I picked these all by myself, they don’t know, you should hide them quickly.
I’m going in to check on Xiao Nuan, there’s a lot of stuff downstairs that still needs my attention."
"Alright, don’t worry, mom will definitely keep them safe."
Qin Yue said and busied herself as well.
At home, she could hardly sleep, if it weren’t for needing to care for Xiao Nuan, she’d have gone out with Jhiang Xingzhi for sure.
Jhiang Yuan didn’t waste any more words and went to check on her daughter.
Then she drank the hot water left on the dining table, sweet with honey added by mom.
Along with the hot water, she ate two packets of beef jerky and squid strips.
Getting busy like this especially exhausted her energy and made her hungry.
"Girl, should I cook some dumplings for you?"
"No need, mom, I’m heading down now, I’ll eat when I come back. You rest for a while too."
"I know, I’ll tidy these up, or they’ll all freeze."
Jhiang Yuan knew she couldn’t sit still, so she didn’t say anything more and headed directly to the twentieth floor.
Ye Mianmian and Grandma Ye had already started organizing things, freeing up a spot on the coffee table.
"Mianmian, let Grandma rest, the two of us can handle it."
"It’s okay, I’m older now, don’t sleep much anyway."
It was the first time she had heard Grandma Ye speak, sounding very compassionate.
"Grandma, please go back now, if you’re here, I’ll still have to look after you, be good and listen."
Ye Mianmian said, coaxing her back with a mix of pushing and pulling.
Jhiang Yuan noticed four bags nearby, realizing each was for one person.
This coffee table was not big, couldn’t hold too much stuff.
Four portions were simply divided, one bag per person, the rest, which were extras, were left on the table, waiting for the last pair.
"Mianmian, this is already one bag, you take yours back. Put Zhang Kaiyang’s into his room too.
I will deliver Song Yi’s and mine as well, freeing the space bit by bit."
"Sure, Sister Yuan, no rush, I’ll help you, let’s also carry these two liquefied gas cylinders."
Ye Mianmian was efficient, now it was even hard to walk around on the twentieth floor.
Besides dividing things, they also needed to clear some space.
Otherwise, it would be inconvenient when they brought more stuff back.
After placing the items, the two picked up the gas cylinders and bags and headed upstairs.
Jhiang Yuan first delivered hers, then went to open Song Yi’s door, which also had a double-layer door.
The outer had a key, the inside was a password lock.
As soon as the door opened, Little One darted out.
"Little One, be good, no noise..."
Although she was afraid, she was okay as she got used to it.
The dog just circled around her without making a sound.
Jhiang Yuan placed the items in the living room, didn’t go further in, there was a night light left on inside, probably for Little One’s convenience.
"Uh, Little One, we’re not going out to play, be good and stay inside."
"Sister Yuan, this dog seems not wanting to go back in, maybe we should take it downstairs."
"Alright then!"
Song Yi probably wouldn’t get upset, Jhiang Yuan patted its head, softly stating, "Let’s go!"
