The young widow who inherited her dead husband's estate (Part 42)

Before planting the lotus seeds, Lance had some "communication" with the fish and shrimp as he had promised Song Ning.

The fish in the pond were already as big as an adult man's palm, so it was perfectly fine to eat them at this point, but Song Ning always felt it was a bit of a pity to see them.

The fish he bought were local species. According to what he had asked at the time, this kind of fish could easily grow to more than ten kilograms in the fish pond. In some ponds, they had even grown to more than eighty kilograms. It would be a pity to eat them at only one or two kilograms.

Lance brought all the lotus buds over. It was funny to see him like this.

"If you don't want to eat it, then don't eat it. Why don't you plant lotus seeds first?"

"Didn't you want to eat the fried lotus root there last time? I have nothing to do these two days after planting lotus seeds, so why don't I take you there to watch a movie and try some?"

Song Ning was a little tempted, but after thinking about it, he sighed.

Lan Siqi was surprised, "Don't want to go?"

Song Ning felt a little embarrassed, but still nodded.

"Well, mainly because after eating the food I grew myself, I feel like the food outside is a little less interesting."

When he tasted the fried lotus stems before, he was amazed at how delicious it was. But since he started eating his own vegetables recently, Song Ning vaguely felt the difference between the vegetables he grew and those outside.

Although they are the same thing, just like the difference between tomatoes, the tomatoes he grows are delicious even when they are only 70% or 80% ripe.

It has a crispy texture when you take a bite, and the flesh is refreshing, juicy and full of fruity aroma. Song Ning has never eaten such delicious tomatoes before.

Now that he knew he was going to grow lotus and could harvest the lotus roots himself to eat, he felt that the one time he ate them in the city was just so-so.

The craftsmanship is actually quite good, but the quality of the products is lacking, which is now fatal to his picky taste.

"Then eat at home and then go out for a walk?"

While Lance and he were planting the lotus seeds, they were using tools to "communicate" with the fish and shrimp.

Let the fish and shrimp not eat these newly grown buds.

Song Ning thought for a moment and said, "There's nothing I want to go to in the city, and there aren't any movies I want to see recently."

"And recently I've been thinking about getting a couple of piglets to raise. I won't sell them, I'll just eat them myself."

Now he and Lance ate mostly vegetables when they had dinner, and it was obvious why.

Pork, mutton, beef, and if possible, Song Ning even wants to raise some rabbits.

Lance heard his plan and didn't object.

"If you just want to raise them for your own consumption, you don't have to buy piglets directly. We can buy bigger ones and then let you raise them for a while. Although the effect will be a little worse, they should taste good if you eat them yourself."

Song Ning was a little moved, "Is this possible?"

Lance nodded. "Didn't you hear from the owner of the agricultural and sideline store last time that people often buy two or three pounds of chickens from his wife's farm and raise them for two or three months, and the results are pretty good. We shouldn't have any big problems doing something similar."

Does it seem like it’s really possible?

Song Ning did have some impression. When the boss talked to him about it, he also asked him if he was interested in raising it in the same way next time.

But he already had a lot of chickens and ducks at the time, so he refused.

Now that I think about it, if I’m just going to eat them myself, maybe I can raise a batch like this first?

Then buy a few more piglets. By the time this batch is finished, the piglets will probably be almost grown.

Wouldn’t this solve the problem of them often not eating meat?

Song Ning thought about it, and a hint of happiness appeared on his face.

"That's it. I'll go find out where I can buy piglets later."

Lance: "No, let me do it. I'll check it for you."

After all, he has the "ability" to find a way out with the little prince, and it would be a waste if he doesn't use it.

After the two men finished discussing, the lotus seeds were planted.

Song Ning looked at the fish in the pond, then at the shrimps, his mouth watering.

I really don’t know how these fish and shrimp taste, but I think tomatoes are delicious, so these should taste even better, right?

Lance couldn't help laughing when he saw his expression, and picked up a shrimp that was as long as his palm.

"Why don't you try some shrimp? It's perfectly fine to raise this big."

Song Ning looked at the fresh and lively shrimp in Lance's hands and felt a little moved.

"Then try some?"

Lance couldn't help but laugh at his expression, "Don't worry, the more of these you eat, the stronger your abilities will become. By that time, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat as much as they do. That's when you'll have to worry."

After he said that, Song Ning felt a little curious.

“Is it really that fast?”

Lance nodded.

"But it will need some manual control at that time. Otherwise, it will grow too fast and the spiritual energy absorption speed will not keep up, and the quality will not be that good. I will make the arrangements then."

Song Ning understood, that is to say, his ability was too strong in the later period, and it might even have the effect of forcing things to grow too fast.

But fortunately, Lance is there for everything. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Lance a few more times.

Lance, who was catching shrimps, moved with ease. I don't know if he was using his 'communication' ability.

Anyway, he had a scoop net in his hand, and the fresh live shrimps, each bigger than the other, jumped out of the water and went into the scoop net.

Song Ning stared at him intently. This man was obviously doing farm work, but his eyes were extremely focused. Even when he was half-squatting on the shore, it couldn't hide his tall and straight figure. His shirt was tucked into his waist, revealing his thin and strong waist.

Song Ning never knew that a man's waist could fascinate him so much, until a shrimp, perhaps a little stupidly, jumped in front of him, splashing water, and Song Ning subconsciously reached out to grab it.

The sun was shining brightly at noon, and Lance looked over with a smile hidden through his long eyelashes. "Yes, this shrimp listened to me and ran towards you. I guess it's because you are so charming that it's attracted to you."

Song Ning grabbed the shrimp and felt that the shrimp was not jumping in his hand, but was bumping around in his heart.

And it is clearly not me who is charming, but the man in front of me who always opens his screen and makes me crazy.

With a flick of the wrist, the shrimp falls back into the scoop net.

Song Ning stood up and asked naturally, "Really? Am I very charming? I see some people just follow me to work in the fields every day, and they think I have no charm anymore."

He turned and walked away, and behind his seemingly cool back was a wrong step that almost caused him to step on himself.

Lance was holding the scoop net, but he didn't concentrate on controlling it and the shrimps jumped out crazily.

But he laughed softly in the sunshine.

"So that's how it is. I misunderstood. I was a little too slow."
