155 I Wanted to Go Over and Kill Him Just Now
Not only was it a waste of time and energy, but it was also easy to attract the attention of people like Wu Di. Du Yue sneered at the thought of Wu Di, saying, “He’s like a toad trying to imitate a frog, but they’re both ugly.”
He Xing asked Du Yue curiously, “Is he ugly?”
“…Is this the main point?” Du Yue asked.
“Er, no it’s not.”
Du Yue glanced at He Xing curiously. “He was trying to hook up with your girlfriend right in front of you. Why weren’t you angry at all?”
He Xing looked at Du Yue. “Of course, I was angry. I wanted to go over and kill him just now.”
“I don’t think so.” The two of them laughed at the same time. In their eyes, Wu Di was just a clown who could not pose any threat to their relationship. As for Zhang Zepeng, it did not matter whether he was playing the role of Wu Di’s lackey or not.
Instead of wasting time on these two idiots, they might as well study how to plant the frosty snow fruit. “The frosty snow fruit needs to be planted in soil. Where are we going to get so much soil?” It would be great if they could be planted like sweet potatoes and potatoes using hydroponics. After all, it was easy to get water.
However, where could they get soil? Du Yue had bought seeds, fertilizers, and nutrient fluid when she was stocking up on supplies. However, she had forgotten to buy soil because she did not expect to use soil. He Xing thought for a moment and said, “The frosty snow fruit can grow in the wild, so it shouldn’t have high requirements for the quality of the soil. I’ll just go downstairs and dig some back.”
“It’s freezing outside. The soil has long been frozen solid. I don’t think we can dig it out, right?”
He Xing raised his eyebrows at her. “Others may not be able to do it, but as your man, I must make it happen. You wait at home. I’ll go down and dig some soil for you!”
Du Yue did not expect He Xing to turn around and leave after saying that. Just as she was about to speak, she heard He Xing turn around and remind her, “You’re already in your pajamas, so don’t follow me down. I’ll be fine by myself. It’s our first time planting, so we don’t need much soil. If we can really grow it, we’ll dig more soil then. Do you have something sturdy to keep the soil in? If you do, give it to me.”
He Xing’s words made sense. Du Yue nodded and found a thick woven bag from her interspace to hand to him. “Do you need any tools? I have a military shovel.”
He Xing waved his hand, and a military shovel appeared in his hand. “I have a military shovel too.”
Seeing He Xing smiling at her, Du Yue could only mutter in her heart, ‘He’ll probably be happy after being cheeky for a while!’ Seeing He Xing walk out of the door, Du Yue, who had nothing to do at home, took out the research report on the frosty snow fruit. She had only briefly read through the report before, but now she realized that at the bottom of the report, there was a method to grow the frosty snow fruit.
She read it carefully and found that it was not difficult to grow the frosty snow fruit. The black seeds inside the frosty snow fruit that Du Yue had seen before were indeed its seeds. There was no need to wait for the seeds to grow into seedlings. She could just dig a hole in the soil and put the seed in it directly. Then, she had to cover it with a layer of soil, water it, and wait for it to grow.
Looking at the planting method mentioned in the research report, Du Yue could not help but say that it was simple and crude. Moreover, the fruit could grow in an outdoor environment of -40 to -50 degrees Celsius. If it was another fruit and its seeds were put into the soil and watered, everything would probably freeze into a lump. It would be impossible to grow any fruit. As for the frosty snow fruit… Du Yue had no comment on it. The frosty snow fruit that Zuo Mingdong had given her before was cut open by Du Yue and stored in her interspace. Now, it came in handy.
Du Yue carefully picked out the seeds of the frosty snow fruit with a toothpick and placed them in a small bowl. If one were to look at the black seeds of the frosty snow fruit, they did look a little like the seeds of a kiwi fruit. However, they were slightly bigger than kiwi seeds. Du Yue had just picked out all the seeds when she heard He Xing’s footsteps.
Du Yue stood up and pushed open the bedroom door. She saw He Xing walking toward her with a big bag of dirt on his shoulder. “How did you get so much?” Du Yue could not help but ask. The woven bag she gave him was not small. It could hold at least a hundred catties of soil if it was full.
He Xing placed the bag on the ground. “Since I was out, I just decided to dig more up. We’ll definitely need it in the future.”
Du Yue nodded, agreeing with He Xing’s words. Just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by He Xing. “Give me a few more of these bags. More than half of the soil I’ve just dug up is still piled up below. I’ll go and bring it back.”
Du Yue did not stop him. Instead, she retrieved a few more woven bags from her interspace and handed them to He Xing.
