Chapter 39: Chapter 39: A New Mission

Xiao Qingya blinked, not expecting the sudden mission at this time. She subconsciously gripped the leaves of wild grass in her hand tighter as she waited for the mission prompt.

Although she had wanted to get another mission, she was also worried it might involve the safety of her family members like the two missions before.

[Mission Triggered.]

[Objective: make your fields of rice prosper. Save them from pests and harm.]

[Reward: 80 System points.]

She was taken aback. How to make the field of rice prosper? It also only involved the rice plants and not other types of plants in the fields.

[System, what does this mean?]

Although the objective was quite vague, she inwardly heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it didn’t involve another danger for her family members.

The System also tried to guess its meaning. It also didn’t know!

[Host, how about we try to experiment with this?]

She nodded, grabbing another leaf of grass as she waited for its explanation. In her heart, she also thought of ways to fulfill this mission.

[According to the plot, the crops in your field failed, yielding too few jins of rice per mu. If we increase the yield per mu, it should be considered prospering...]

Upon hearing this, she went to check the plot. A passage had described that their family’s yield was too low, only 60 jins per mu of land. It was a near failure.

With the pesticide, the amount of yield per mu should increase. Thinking of this, she calmed down.

[The mission might be much more simple than we thought, System. In the plot, our family had no pesticide, so it’s also a turning point for us.]

Xiao Yuyan, who was crouching down beside Xiao Qingya, also heard the new mission from the System. She looked up. Others were still busy watering the soil, sprinkling some water into its surface.

Xiao Fenghao and Xiao Yuxi weren’t that skilled at doing that, so they were very careful, making sure they wouldn’t sprinkle too much pesticide water or too little.

Usually, Xiao Yuyan would help, but she was currently keeping a watch on Xiao Qingya.

[We shall see it during the harvest time then.] Xiao Qingya shook her head. [We are not in a hurry anyway, let’s wait until a few weeks and see the result later.]

Xiao Yuyan made a mental note to tell this matter to her mother later.

As the little one tried hard to uproot each grass with her little strength, she suddenly remembered about Han Tingxun.

They were strangers to each other, yet he had risked his life to save her. She wondered how he was doing.

The System knew what its host was thinking, so it didn’t hide anything.

[Host, that person’s attainment in martial arts shouldn’t be low. You should be able to meet him again later.]

Xiao Qingya heaved a sigh of relief. As long as that man lived. Even if there was a problem later, if they met again, she could ask her eldest brother to take a look at him if he had any sequelae from his injuries.

The family of five stayed until afternoon. At lunch, they ate the steamed buns they had brought.

On the way home, Xiao Qingya’s face was a little flushed red, but she noticeably looked more happy. The gloom that had enveloped the family for the past few days also dissipated.

The villagers were incredibly kind. They gave Xiao some peaches from the trees on their field on the way back. Zhou Anran took note of this, telling herself to share some food with others later.

As Xiao Qingya sat on her brother’s shoulder and enjoying the peaches, she saw the soybean plants and suddenly remembered a delicious drink from a modern time.

In this era, such a drink probably wasn’t widespread yet.

[System, tell me the recipe on how to make soy milk.]

The soybean at home would mature soon, and she wanted to taste soy milk again. It would also be a good thing if they could sell the drink at the village market.

Currently, they didn’t have much money. Before their grandfather brought their grandmother back home, he had stuffed some money into Xiao Qingya’s little fist.

However, Zhou Anran didn’t want to use the money for the family. Although she took them from Xiao Qingya, she saved the money for her to use later.

[Of course, Host, that’s easy. You need to soak the soybeans in water for half a day, then grind them. Add some water...]

It explained the whole process.

Xiao Qingya nodded. Once the soybeans mature, she would definitely soak the soybean in half a day, asking someone to grind and boil them.

She would act as if she was playing house, pretending it was an accident she discovered this method of making soy milk!

Her other siblings perked up when they heard the System and their little sister discussing the delicious drink. The sun was shining hot, their throats dry.

They wanted to taste the drink so bad!

The System didn’t forget to remind her.

[Host, you must boil the soy bean water thoroughly at a high temperature and stir it constantly to remove the toxin contained in the soybeans.]

Xiao Qingya nodded seriously, trying to remember it. She didn’t forget to praise the System.

[System, you are so smart! So useful!]

The System snorted at her praise, but it was clear from its tone that it was happy.

[Of course, of course. Did you just find out I am smart and useful? Hmph!]

After a long and tiring day at the field, the family of five finally arrived home. Zhou Anran washed Xiao Qingya into a tender little bun again before washing herself.

Her other siblings also went to clean themselves.

Xiao Qingya still had some pesticide liquid left, so she secretly went to the garden at home and watered the plants, including the soybeans.

A few days later, as Xiao Yuyan was putting a tray of herbs under the sun, Xiao Qingya dragged her to pick the soybeans.
