Chapter 2149: Bountiful Farm's Miraculous Daily Life 20

After Lin Mian finished listening to the mysterious father who seemed like an elf and the warrior mother's "parental love story", it was already nearly two hours later.

During this period, Boss Song was completely stunned.

Silver hair, a cape, and a few wild grasses could save my old father's life.

Boss Song thought his father could no longer be described as simply old and muddle-headed; young people these days are all materialists—how could they believe what you're saying…

Wait… Boss Xiao Lin, how can you be so convinced!

Boss Song was greatly disillusioned, but didn't dare disturb his excited father… Actually there was another reason.

The fruit on this farm is really sweet! You can chat for a few more hours, anyway you'll get to eat your fill!

Lin Mian, how could she not notice? She immediately said that if the cooperation could be settled, there would be plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, plus free-range chickens—those are hatched from eggs and raised by the black cat and Zero Egg… no, raised by the black cat and Zero Egg to be authentic free-range chickens!

Thus the catching up was finished, and the cooperation was also settled.

After the farm stay, Lin Mian finally welcomed a long-term major cooperation, so she no longer had to worry about sales channels.

Therefore, when the Old Master proposed to return the money he had received from Lin's father years ago, Lin Mian refused.

"You helping the farm solve its sales problem has already given me great help……" "No no no, that's a different matter!"

The Old Master was very stubborn.

"This matter has weighed on my mind for many years; without that money, I couldn't have recovered from setbacks and made a comeback."

"I don't know how much longer I'll live, but I must return this money to you,"

Seeing the Old Master's firm attitude, Lin Mian could only reluctantly accept the money and also prepared a large pile of gifts to return.

The Old Master was happy, and Boss Song smiled so broadly he showed no eyes.

After seeing off the two, Lin Mian walked out of the courtyard and looked around.

The miraculous seeds grew even more vigorously, with leaves as wide as a palm, lush green and pleasing to the eye.

The newly hatched little yellow ducks of the chicks played, the scene so cute it resembled a fairy tale.

The black cat by the pond tried to catch fish using telepathy—i. e., without letting its paws touch the water—to pull the fish out.

Thera and Croni waved goodbye to guests from the rooftop, taking advantage of humans not seeing them to be overly enthusiastic.

Wrong…

"Where is Jin Chen?"

Lin Mian looked up and asked the two elves on the roof.

Croni, holding a harp, looked like she was crying, "He ran off with the ball."

Lin Mian: "……"

What.

"What nonsense are you spouting, elf? I can't understand a word."

Ah, turns out the ball is Zero Egg.

Lin Mian, belatedly stunned, asked which direction Jin Chen had gone and immediately chased after him.

He felt a bit regretful, realizing his attitude had affected Jin Chen.

Walking briskly through the fields, the sunset's afterglow fell on Lin Mian, lengthening his shadow.

He saw from afar that Jin Chen was standing at the mountain's base, surrounded by several female tourists from the farm stay.

The tourists were obviously attracted by Jin Chen's appearance and all started chatting him up.

"Wow, your eyes are green—are you a handsome mixed-race guy?" the girl in a floral dress held up her phone and moved closer, "Can we take a photo together? If you're single..."

"Yes yes, do you have a partner? Want to add me on WeChat?" several other nicely dressed girls also came over.

Jin Chen was helpless.

Who would have thought that just helping a tourist pick up a sun hat blown off by the wind would get him dragged into a chat.

Ling Gun Gun had already slipped off to the mountain stream to watch the excitement.

He was about to speak to refuse, but seeing Lin Mian approach, he immediately stood still.

Lin Mian also didn't expect to see this scene; feeling a vague sourness, he didn't think twice and quickly stepped forward, taking Jin Chen's hand directly.

It actually carried a hint of claiming sovereignty.

"Sorry, I need to talk to him about something."

The few pretty girls froze for a moment, then gave a meaningful smile: "Oh, I see, sorry to bother you."

After they hurriedly left, Jin Chen turned his head to look at Lin Mian, his eyes holding a subtle expression.

"Kun Kun, were you just jealous?"

Lin Mian glanced aside, "I just think it's not good for you to be surrounded by them."

Jin Chen: "……"

Jin Chen pulled his hand back heavily: "Hmph."

"Lin Kun Kun, do you know what you've been like these days?" Jin Chen asked.

Lin Mian lowered his gaze, voice low: "I… I know I always avoid problems, like an ostrich."

He has always been gentle and tolerant, unconsciously taking on the caretaker role on the farm, but when faced with this problem…

Lin Mian felt that even an ostrich mindset was no longer enough to describe himself.

"So what exactly happened, really can't be said at all…?"

He was hugged again.

Jin Chen helplessly looked up, his arms at his sides refusing to lift to return the hug, and glanced down at Lin Mian leaning against his chest.

"Lin Kun Kun, you really are like an evil farm owner who just eats meat and doesn't pay."

"No name, no distinction, always demanding I hug hug hug."

Lin Mian: "……"

Lin Mian made a move to get up, looking at Jin Chen with a face full of grievance and disbelief.

Then I—

Hug hug hug.

Jin Chen lost control in half a second, tightly imprisoning the evil farm owner in his arms.

I really can't figure it out.

What huge matter needs to be agonized over for so long, yet he won't reveal even a bit.

After a while of hugging, Jin Chen poked Lin Mian's face buried in his shoulder, asking, "How much longer will you agonize over it?"

Soon.

Lin Mian thought about the page count of that story collection, couldn't help but hug him tighter, and took a deep breath of Jin Chen's scent.

Actually...

Actually, after hearing Old Master today talk about his parents' past loving experiences, his thoughts have already changed.

——

Returning to the farm, apparently to coax the sulky divine envoy.

That evening's meal was cooked by Lin Mian, and it was unusually lavish.

Lin Mian picked a few ripe tomatoes, sliced them thin, and sprinkled with fine white sugar to pickle.

The appetizer had the tomatoes that Jin Chen lately loved to gnaw on raw.

After chilling, the tomatoes exuded a clear sweet juice; their reddish flesh wrapped in crystalline sugar grains, entering the mouth with a cool, sweet‑sour tang.

Keluoni leaned on the table edge, staring at the plate and swallowing his saliva, then secretly took a bite to show off to Taila, saying, "This thing is more refreshing than elf nectar!"

Then the two elves got into a fight again.

The main course was even richer: potatoes cut into roll‑cut chunks, together with carrots and onions tossed into a clay pot, seasoned with star anise and simmered low and slow; the beef stewed until tender, the potatoes soaked up the broth, falling apart at a prod of the chopsticks—a most satisfying potato stew to go with rice.

The lamb chops were marinated with rosemary and black pepper, then placed on a hot iron plate with a sizzle; the fat burst into aromatic smoke at high heat, the exterior crisp while the interior still glowed with pink juices.

Plus the stir‑fried beef with spicy fragrance that rushes to the crown of the head, cooked to amber, and the pulled‑sugar potatoes where a lift of the chopsticks draws out crystalline sugar strands.

The dinner aroma spread across the whole farm, drawing the elves over; even the prophecy elf Elaria, who usually needs to sleep by day, was awakened by the scent.

Jin Chen...

Jin Chen pretended to be sulky, but he ate with great delight.

Actually, he didn't really want to pretend—who doesn't want to kiss and cuddle with his wife? But Jin Chen realized that as soon as he took the initiative, Lin Mian would become even more ostrich‑like.

But if Lin Mian herself slowly opened her heart and did some "coaxing" gestures, the effect would be much better.

After the meal ended, under the unwritten rule that the cook doesn't wash dishes, Jin Chen had just risen when he was pulled out of the kitchen, with Taila and Keluoni taking over the dishwashing.

The elves' enjoyment manifests in every aspect—who would say that washing dishes isn't one of them?
