Chapter 1234: The Fruits of Manure

Lettuce shrinks rapidly as soon as it's stir-fried. If you buy it at a vegetable market, two heads aren't necessarily enough for a single dish.

But the two heads that Mother Wang just picked with her quick hands were large and plump. The stems snapped crisply when broken, and the leaves were tender and green. Once stir-fried, the effect was like using three or four heads from the market.

"You're something else, Wang Yangyang!"

As Mother Wang placed the plate of lettuce on the table, she couldn't help but beam with joy: "Save some of these seeds for me later; I'll plant some on the balcony too."

Wang Yangyang was just bringing over the rice. Hearing this, she was truly confused: "But these seeds are the same batch as the ones we planted last time! Mom, you even complained that my planting wasn't good back then."

Because of that, her mother had planted the second batch herself. At the time, she hadn't expected to grow anything; she just didn't want to waste the seeds.

After all, the first batch of lettuce had grown sparse, and each head had only a few leaves. Stir-frying seven or eight heads barely made a dish—it was pathetic.

Compared to the current ones, it was like heaven and earth, as if the genes had mutated.

This left Mother Wang stumped as well.

She carefully recalled her planting process. Because the previous planting results were poor, this time she focused on convenience and simplicity; she hadn't even sprouted the seeds before sowing them directly into the pot.

Who would have thought that after a month, they would have grown so well!

She brought over another plate of braised chicken wings and asked in passing, "Did you spread fertilizer?"

Wang Yangyang sighed: "How could I find the time? The new company is killing me with work; you didn't see that I barely had time to water them—wait, it seems there really was fertilizer."

"Didn't I win a bag of sheep manure fertilizer in Qiaoqiao's livestream giveaway before? I heard it could be used as base fertilizer, so I buried it all in that large flower pot."

Qiaoqiao's livestream?!

Mother Wang quickly grasped the point: "That Qiaoqiao? The one... the one with the spinach?"

"Yes!" Wang Yangyang nodded—that spinach was actually her first attempt at placing an order. After she bought it, she was scolded by her mother, as it really was quite expensive when calculated.

Moreover, the spinach was covered in dirt and dust, and the yellow leaves hadn't been cleaned off. The ones in the supermarket were not only cheaper but also clean and fresh.

But since she had already bought it, Mother Wang grumbled while cleaning it, then simply stir-fried it—don't mention it, the old variety of flat-leaf spinach didn't look like much. When it arrived by courier, the leaves were grayish-green, looking as if they were ancient.

But once it was actually stir-fried, you would discover that the leaves were oily, green, and tender. You didn't even need to chew hard when putting them in your mouth, and a unique, sweet freshness belonging to spinach permeated...

In short!

"Delicious!"

After the meal, Mother Wang immediately defected, even urging Wang Yangyang to buy more: "Buy more! Get another 10... forget it, buy 30 jin. I'll blanch and freeze them! They'll definitely be delicious in hot pot!"

Wang Yangyang:...

At that time, she was still a new fan and didn't quite understand how charming Qiaoqiao's family was. She went to the livestream room, shouted a couple of times, and ultimately received the resentment of other fans—

【You're the only one who wants to buy spinach?】

【Exactly! Is it because I don't like it that I don't buy 100 jin?】

【It was said when selling that it was to give back to fans! How could there be this price if it wasn't to give back to fans?】

【He really! Usually, you can't even buy it, but it's only sold for 20 just to give back to fans.】

【So angry, why are there so many new fans?! If it weren't for them, I might have been able to buy 10 jin!】

Everyone's resentment piled up layer upon layer. Caught in the middle, Wang Yangyang, who had wanted to say the number 30 jin to shock the seller, could only give up in the end.

From then on, she knew—others livestream to sell goods, but Qiaoqiao selling things was purely giving out welfare.

Now, chatting about this, the mother and daughter looked at the lettuce in the plate again and, without a word, were the first to use their chopsticks.

A moment later, the two looked at each other: "This vegetable..."

It really is delicious!

It was indeed much worse than the spinach in their memories, but compared to those often bought in supermarkets, it had already surpassed them by several levels!

This made both mother and daughter lose confidence in their own eating.

Like, is it possible that the lettuce being delicious is a matter of the seeds?

But thinking about the things sold by Qiaoqiao's family, the intensity of the rush to buy, and that bag of manure fertilizer won from the giveaway...

No matter how you think about it, you can't get around it, right!

The two pondered silently while taking one chopstick after another. The braised chicken wings on the side were about to get cold, and the whole plate of lettuce was eaten without a single leaf left.

And at this moment, Mother Wang made a decision:

"Wang Yangyang, go ask that livestream room again, is there a discount if we buy 10 bags of this manure fertilizer?"

Wang Yangyang: "... Mom, you're making things difficult for me."

As a fan who had followed three livestream sessions, Wang Yangyang now knew to some extent how popular Qiaoqiao's family's things were. At this moment, she could only say helplessly:

"They don't sell this; it was won through a giveaway."

"I know!" Mother Wang had her own logic: "I once won a jade bracelet in a supermarket giveaway, but I had to pay an extra 2,000—the tricks of these sellers are all like this."

"Flower shops online all sell manure fertilizer; why wouldn't they sell it if there's money to be made? We'll buy it even if it's a bit expensive."

Thinking for a moment, she added: "If there's still spinach, we'll buy that too." It's just that it's already March; I'm afraid it might all be old by now?

Wang Yangyang:... They already have millions of fans; it shouldn't be a money issue, right? She checks that online store every day herself, and the limited-edition items inside have never been successfully snatched...

Does this look like they're short on money?

She simply took her mother's phone, installed the livestream software and Taotaobao in a few strokes, and then skillfully found Qiaoqiao's shop:

"Mom, ask yourself; I estimate you won't be able to buy it."

"This is their online shop, this is the livestream platform, I've already helped you log in with one click and follow Qiaoqiao. The livestream isn't on now, so you can only watch previous replays; you'd better ask in the online shop."

Ask then ask!

Mother Wang thought: This child is really! She hasn't even asked yet and is already retreating.

She'll ask if she wants to ask; it's not like she's afraid! She has also watched livestreams on Chanyin and knows how to buy groceries on Meituan!

At this moment, she swiped out the handwriting keyboard and wrote stroke by stroke:

"Sheep manure fertilizer, how much for 10 bags?"

"Is there still spinach? Don't want old ones."

The online shop has nothing now; familiar old fans already know how to comfort themselves. Therefore, Zhang Yanping was stunned when the background message notification sounded.

And when he opened the message column, he couldn't help but fall silent.

What sheep manure fertilizer? Have they ever sold this thing in their shop?

As for spinach... hey, wouldn't that stuff be sold out if you didn't wait for it to get old?

Even if there were old ones picked out, it wouldn't be their turn to sell them; the dogs, pigs, chickens, ducks, and geese at home all complain there isn't enough to eat!

Anyone who asks like this must have just entered the livestream room, right?

Facing a new fan, he also replied politely:

【Dear, hello, our shop has never sold sheep manure fertilizer.】

【There is no spinach, dear; there are neither old nor tender ones.】 ===== CHAPTER 1235 =====
