Chapter 66: Human Wisdom
At this moment, if Liu Dafu were replaced by Prince Qing, Sui Sui would be holding her breath to death, and she wouldn't know if she dared to speak.
But Liu Dafu's kindness gave her courage; Sui Sui raised her hand and pointed at the small bag, whispering, "Liu Ye Ye, I want that bag."
【Including the things inside.】
The system feared Liu Dafu really only wanted the bag, and hurriedly reminded Sui Sui.
Sui Sui obediently complied: "And the things inside, I want those too!"
Perhaps because she finally dared to speak, Sui Sui felt she could also be justified and confident this once?
So, the last two words, her voice was especially loud.
After she finished speaking, the four burly men at the neighboring table looked over.
Sui Sui was frightened and shrank back behind Liu Dafu in a swoosh.
Liu Dafu was actually somewhat surprised.
All along, the little girl has been quiet and well-behaved.
Actually, it's this that makes people feel the most heartache.
What kind of living conditions would make a five-year-old child become sensible so early?
Liu Dafu has been encouraging Sui Sui, so she doesn't have to be so sensible.
She's still just a child!
Nowadays, Sui Sui rarely musters the courage to want something.
Liu Dafu thought, how could he not give it?
He must give it!
Even if it's a bit expensive…
Isn't there still the Sixth Prince?
He can't afford it, but the Prince Qi's mansion should be able to, right?
Feng Xuanrui also heard Sui Sui's words; the young lad had originally already stood up.
Seeing that the four burly men were still carrying weapons, he thought it over and sat back down, then turned his head to look at Prince Qing.
Prince Qing:?
When you're scared, you think of me?
Feng Xuanrui smiled obediently; Prince Qing helplessly shook his head, then turned his head to look at Liu Dafu.
Liu Dafu smiled at him, then got up and walked toward the neighboring table.
The four people were dressed as merchants; as for their exact identities, they would need to be investigated further to know.
Liu Dafu approached, exchanged pleasantries for a while, confirmed that the four were indeed merchants, then tentatively asked about the contents of their bag.
Upon mentioning this, the originally friendly and relaxed atmosphere at the table suddenly stiffened.
The four burly men's faces instantly fell into worry; the elder brother who had been chatting happily with Liu Dafu wiped his face, then let out a long sigh: "Don't hide it, brother, this time we've really been taken for a ride!"
"This item, those people previously demanded a high price from us, saying it tasted good and could be eaten any way."
"We thought, the bag doesn't contain much, so we bought it."
"Just this bag, they asked me for one hundred fifty taels of silver!"
"If it weren't for seeing that this is a fresh item, who would dare to want it?"
"The result? It ended up in our hands!"
……
"Don't hide it from you, brother, we still have a conscience and don't want to cheat people; originally we planned to find someone to swindle, sell off the rest, but we couldn't get past our conscience!"
……
The burly man, while speaking, began to wipe his tears.
It's clear that regarding this incident of being cheated, he's indeed extremely upset.
Why say they were cheated?
Because they discovered that after the rabbit ate the contents of the bag, it died!!
The rabbit died from eating it; what about the person?
Who would dare to try it?
Never mind how that person described it as heavenly and delicious, the taste is delicious.
But it can kill a person; who would dare to eat it?
After hearing the full story, Liu Dafu's face became somewhat solemn.
The rabbit died from eating it, huh?
That's quite dangerous; should we buy it for the kids to play with?
Liu Dafu hesitated, then turned his head to look at their table.
At this moment, Sui Sui looked at him nervously yet eagerly; seeing Liu Dafu look at her, her eyes obviously brightened a lot, and her waist and back instinctively straightened.
Looking at her, she seems especially eager to bring back good news, right?
Liu Dafu's originally hesitant heart instantly became firm.
He thought, as a doctor, if he watches closely, preventing the two children from mistakenly eating it, there shouldn't be a big problem.
Having decided to buy it, the item isn't expensive.
Moreover, only a small half-bag remains now; Liu Dafu talked with the merchant elder brother for a while, offered a high price of fifty taels, and directly took the item.
The merchant elder brother felt very guilty about this, but Liu Dafu firmly expressed: "I want it."
The elder brother had no choice but to repeatedly stress that the item cannot be eaten, or it will kill a person.
The item was successfully bought back; when he lifted it in his hand, Liu Dafu then realized……
In this bag, why does it have a sour, sharp smell of decayed plants?
Spoiled?
It can't be completely spoiled, right?
But they aren't really sure whether fresh species are spoiled or not, are they?
When Liu Dafu returned carrying something, Sui Sui happily stood up; she was so excited she didn't know how to express her joy and gratitude.
She clenched a small fist, stood there, and gave Liu Dafu a silly smile.
Feng Xuanrui saw that the chance to show off was taken by someone else, and couldn't help but curl his lip, suppressing the sour feeling inside.
The young boy thought: what's there to be proud of?
No matter how well he performs, he's still just a grandfather.
He's the brother!
The best brother!
The items were bought back, and the two children ate obediently.
After eating, they returned to the Ke Zhan.
Liu Dafu opened the bag and found that many things inside were indeed rotten.
They must be rotten, right?
When pressed, they all ooze yellow liquid; they can't be good, can they?
They don't understand the new species either.
But for the sake of the two children, Liu Dafu could only pinch his nose and start handling them.
Sui Sui actually doesn't understand either; everything's rotten, what should we do?
【Not all are spoiled; keep the parts with sprouts as intact as possible, and cut them cleanly.】
…
The system gave a brief instruction.
Although Liu Dafu has never seen a potato.
However, he's fairly familiar with other crops; seeing the sprouting spots, he thinks they should be plantable, right?
He also doesn't know what kind of flower it will bloom into.
Relying on his experience, he peeled the remaining potatoes.
He left the sprouted part completely and perfectly.
Even the system, upon seeing it, marveled at human ingenuity!
The potato sprouts are peeled; what's next?
Using his medicinal planting experience, Liu Dafu had Di Jiao and the others find some earthenware pots and successfully planted those potato sprouts.
System: …!
Is this human wisdom?
This isn't any different from normal potato sprouting, right?
Just wait for the potato seedlings to grow, then transplant them into the ground!
The system said nothing more, and Sui Sui still didn't understand.
She only felt that Liu Dafu was great and impressive.
She, cheering from the side, kept saying: "Grandpa, you're so amazing!"
"Grandpa, you can even do this!"
"Grandpa, you planted it so well!"
…
Liu Dafu was already lost in a sea of "Grandpa" after "Grandpa"; if the potatoes weren't limited, he thought he could still go out and plow two more mu of land!
In contrast, Feng Xuanrui's youthful face was already creased beyond recognition.
He thought: what's so remarkable?
Isn't it just planting stuff?
He can do it too!
Just wait.
When he returned to the residence, he ripped up Mother Consort's little garden and gave it to his sister to plant whatever she wants!
Princess Consort of Qi: Great filial son, I thank you!
Second watch at 19:00
From the next chapter onward, there will be continuous appearances of the cousin!
