833 Compensation
“Aiyo, this young lady is really pretty. She’s like a fairy in a painting. You must be hungry. I’ll go cook for you now.”
Yu Shuping praised Mu Yali generously before running to the kitchen with a big goose. Since she was a rich lady from the capital, they naturally had to fleece some money out of her.
At the thought of this, she smiled until her face was wrinkled. She turned around and said to Shi Xiang, “Treat the guest well. Do you hear me?”
Shi Xiang quickly said, “Mom, I understand. Go and cook!”
Ever since Mu Yali entered, she had been glancing at the greenhouse. After Shuping left, she asked impatiently, “Is it in there? Show me.”
Shi Xiang opened the small door to the garden. She pointed at the two greenhouses and said, “One for vegetables and one for strawberries. Be careful when you go in. Don’t step on them. Otherwise, we won’t be able to deliver the goods tomorrow.”
“Alright, alright, I understand. If I step on it, I’ll compensate you, okay?” Mu Yali couldn’t wait anymore. Shi Xiang was still dawdling. She pushed Shi Xiang away and strode into the greenhouse.
When Shi Xiang saw this, the corners of her mouth curled up into a smile before she quickly followed.
As soon as she opened the curtain of the greenhouse, Mu Yali saw strings of fiery red strawberries the size of two bowls hanging on the shelf. They were all bright red and exuded an alluring sweetness.
Mu Yali was stunned. It was not that she had never seen Sweet Dew strawberries, but when she saw the strawberry seedlings, she was still shocked.
Moreover, she couldn’t help but swallow her saliva, wishing she could pounce on strawberries and take a few bites to satisfy her craving.
She took out 500 yuan from her bag and threw it to Shi Xiang. “I want to eat 20 strawberries. Is that a problem?”
Shi Xiang quickly picked up the money on the ground and wiped it with her sleeve. She smiled from ear to ear and said, “No problem, no problem. Eat whatever you want. By the way, there’s a well here. If you think it’s dirty, you can wash your hands there.”
Mu Yali did not have the time to care if it was dirty or not. She was already hungry. When she heard that, she quickly grabbed a strawberry to put in her mouth. The juice immediately gushed out and flowed into her stomach, instantly satisfying her taste buds.
“It’s too delicious!” Mu Yali shouted excitedly.
Seeing how ignorant Mu Yali was, a trace of disdain and mockery flashed across Shi Xiang’s eyes.
The resentment she felt along the way dissipated a little at this moment, but…
Shi Xiang’s gaze landed on Mu Yali’s small pearl bag, thinking about how she could snatch it away.
Just as she was thinking hard, Mu Yali suddenly screamed. Shi Xiang quickly looked over and saw Mu Yali pointing at the ground in horror. A small earthworm was squirming towards Mu Yali, scaring her so much that she retreated, her voice becoming sharp.
“Insect, there’s an insect. Get it away, get it away…”
Perhaps because she was too excited, Mu Yali accidentally stepped on two seedlings and crushed them.
Shi Xiang’s eyes lit up. She quickly squatted down and covered the earthworm with soil. “Don’t be afraid. This is not an insect. This is an earthworm. It can help the soil loosen and make the seedlings grow better.”
Seeing Shi Xiang grab the earthworm with her bare hand, Mu Yali was so disgusted that she almost vomited.
“Aiya, Mu Yali, you’ve stepped on two seedlings. If my mother finds out, she’ll definitely beat me to death. What should I do?”
Shi Xiang seemed to have just realized that the seedlings under Mu Yali’s feet had been trampled. She immediately cried and looked flustered.
