Chapter 218 Relaxing and De-stress-Relieving Farming Tasks
Kong Nishang knew she couldn't hide it any longer, so she decided to confess and be lenient with her mother, since her mother was always easy to talk to and would never scold her.
So she mustered her courage, lowered her head, and admitted, "I'm telling you the truth, Mother... please don't be angry... and please don't tell Father..."
After hearing her daughter's words, Pan Yuanshuang had already guessed what was going on.
She glanced at her daughter discreetly, "You tell me first, let me hear it."
Feeling guilty, Kong Nishang weakly recounted the whole story, starting from when she took her father's jade pendant.
Especially when she talked about the sadness of wanting to buy milk tea for the first time but having no money, she tried to use her vivid emotions to make her mother empathize with her helplessness at having to pawn her jade pendant...
After hearing the whole story, Pan Yuanshuang couldn't help but want to burst out laughing, but she tried her best to suppress it when she spoke.
"Oh, you child... how could you..."
She finished speaking halfway through, silently completing the sentence in her mind: How come you're so much like your mother? You even did something your mother wanted to do!
However, Kong Nishang was clearly unaware of the situation. She thought her mother was blaming her, so she quickly and obediently apologized: "Mother~ I know I was wrong. You can take the rest of the silver... The money that has already been spent... I will slowly pay you back to you in the future..."
Pan Yuanshuang herself is a shopping enthusiast, so she naturally understands her daughter's thoughts.
She knew that her daughter was like herself and had no bad intentions; she just couldn't resist the urge to buy good things.
So she gently patted her daughter's hand and said tenderly, "It's alright, you're just a child, I don't blame you."
"I'll keep the rest of the money for now. As for the money you've already spent, you don't need to pay it back; consider it pocket money from me."
Kong Nishang was deeply moved by her mother's understanding words.
Waaah, her mother is so kind~ She didn't even blame her, and she doesn't even have to pay back the money!
What's wrong with buying more things for such a wonderful mother? As long as she likes them! Next time she sees something nice, she'll definitely bring it back for her mother!
This scene of maternal love and filial piety deepened the bond between the mother and daughter.
Kong Nishang quickly handed the buy-one-get-one-free fruit tea to Pan Yuanshuang. The mother and daughter came out of the daily necessities store, found an empty seat, and sat down to enjoy their drinks and chat.
Kong Nishang excitedly shared the interesting things she had just experienced with her mother...
At this moment, in the [Fairyland] villa, Bai Mengran is immersed in the joy of farming...
This morning, with the food delivery and "flying taxi" services arranged smoothly and seeing the continuous growth in order volume and revenue in the background, Bai Mengran finally felt relieved.
The successful completion of the two most important tasks of the day undoubtedly brought her great satisfaction.
So, in her spare time, she devoted herself with great joy to the study of the portable spiritual field.
This spiritual field was obtained by her after completing a leisure task in the morning, and it was something she fell in love with at first sight.
She had always dreamed of owning a piece of land where she wouldn't have to work the land herself...
She herself used to be a big fan of farming games. After planting seeds, she would wait for the harvest, which she found very relaxing and therapeutic.
However, when she was renovating her villa, she didn't dare to create a real family garden planting area in the courtyard.
One reason is that she simply doesn't have the time or the ability to take care of it, and another is that she's afraid it will attract bugs in real life...
Insects are her natural enemy, the living creature she fears most, without exception, and she avoids them at all costs...
Sigh, so much so that her dream of farming can only be realized in games...
Hehe, now that the game has become a reality, Bai Mengran was so happy she cried tears of joy.
With an excited heart and trembling hands, Bai Mengran entered the [Leisure] section and found the 'Portable Spirit Field' planting panel she had just won in the lottery under the [My] interface.
The panel is centered around the spirit fields, displaying nine spirit fields in a cute, ancient style. The fields are surrounded by small bridges, flowing water, and fluttering butterflies, creating a serene and beautiful virtual farming game scene.
The top left corner displays "Dynamic Weather," which is synchronized with the real time and weather conditions. On sunny days, the sky is clear and blue; at night, fireflies dance in the air; on rainy days, lotus leaves automatically protect the seedlings; and on snowy days, manual snow removal is required...
The icons at the top are for 【Spirit Plant Encyclopedia】【Spirit Fruit Encyclopedia】【Spirit Pet Assistant】【Fairy Items】.
Bai Mengran clicked to enter the browsing interface, only to find it completely grayed out, indicating it was not yet unlocked...
These can all be obtained by spending leisure points, redeeming leisure lottery tickets, or completing tasks.
Well, she currently has nothing but a single random [seed] that she received as a bonus from the Spirit Field.
But the child knew how to be content. After all, she had only done two days of casual tasks, and it was already quite lucky for her to get this portable spiritual field!
Bai Mengran carefully clicked on the only [seed] marked with a question mark, and a prompt immediately appeared: "Open [seed] to obtain a random spiritual plant or spiritual fruit seed?"
She rubbed her hands together and excitedly selected "Yes".
After a series of vibrations and a burst of light, the question mark seed transformed into a seed icon glowing with a purple light.
The cursor hovers over the seed, displaying the seed details:
[Spirit Summoning Fruit], an extremely rare summoning-type spirit fruit. Upon maturity, it has a certain chance to summon a spirit pet. Maturity period is 24 hours. Using it after maturity increases your character's luck value by +5 for 24 hours. It is worth system coins in the Leisure Shop.
Even the system couldn't help but jump out and exclaim: "Wow, host, your luck is amazing! The seeds you've grown are so incredible, a rare and top-grade spiritual fruit seed right off the bat!"
Wow, the host's luck is amazing! It just needs to stick close and rub off a tiny bit!
"Wow, really? I only have this pitiful single seed, so I can't do any comparisons, but just looking at the description, I feel it's a good seed!"
Bai Mengran excitedly dragged the Summoning Fruit seed into the first spirit field and planted it. The panel immediately displayed the seed maturity countdown (23:59:59) and the seed mood value (sunny smile).
She said expectantly, "I hope to get an adorable spirit pet. If not, selling it to the shop for 10,000 system coins would be nice too!"
It would be a waste to use this myself, since my luck stat is already almost perfect, haha~
Watching the countdown tick away, Bai Mengran was filled with anticipation. She would patiently wait for the next day...
[Ding, congratulations host, Leisure Task 10: First Leisure Farming Task has been completed.]
Rewards: 1 random [seed], +2 leisure points (currently available leisure points are 4)
Bai Mengran was pleasantly surprised to find that the farming quest also gave out seeds, and couldn't help but exclaim:
"I never expected that farming could trigger quest rewards. What a lucky accident!"
Tongbao, is this kind of farming task some kind of nesting doll game?
"How come I was just thinking about not being able to afford seeds, and now they've been delivered to my door..."
