Miss Star, spoiled by her father and brother

Volunteers on Chapter 564

At 6:30 in the morning, a middle-aged man got up, stood on the balcony, took a few deep breaths, and then started a strange exercise.

His every move seemed to be slowed down to 0.5 times the speed, like an otter in a zoo.

The wife and children at home were no longer surprised by this scene and just went about their business.

"Wall-E, pour two glasses of milk and go make three egg sandwiches," the hostess ordered with a yawn.

After receiving the command, the little robot rolled to the kitchen, stretched its legs high, and opened the refrigerator door with its mechanical hands.

"no--!"

The man yelled, ran over and slammed the door.

"Coldness hurts the spleen and stomach. You need to change your eating habits. Isn't your period always late? Maybe that's the reason."

The woman took a deep breath and turned away. It seemed that there were a few cucumbers on the balcony that could be picked, and some green leafy vegetables had also sprouted...

Seeing her grabbing the scissors, the man stopped her again: "It's not good to eat raw food on an empty stomach in the morning, so stop making that herb salad of yours."

The woman was completely furious: "You are not allowed to eat this or that! Just go live by the sea! I have been eating this for decades and now you are telling me this! And it will delay my period... I don't care if it is delayed or not! I am almost in menopause!"

"Wall-E! Go make it for me! Add a few more ice cubes to the milk!"

"Stand there! Can you please stop being so willful? You are an adult, and you are making a fool of yourself in front of a child."

"Damn robot! Don't listen to him!"

During the couple's quarrel, the housework robot's movements became jerky and finally crashed.

Similar scenes are happening in other corners of the Imperial Capital Star.

People in the interstellar society were first exposed to the concept of "health preservation", starting with the students' families.

Some of them believed their partners' words without a doubt and actively cooperated; some were half-believing and half-doubting, but willing to do as they were told; some were annoyed to death. Regardless of whether they were right or wrong, they had lived like this for decades, and asking them to change was no less than sending polar bears to live in the south.

Xu Weiwei listened to her students complaining about her husband's "stubbornness" and gave them some advice, saying that individuals are different and they can't be forced. If there is no obvious abnormality in the body, just do whatever is comfortable for you. If she is too extreme, others might think she is a "cult".

At the same time, the concept of elephant forest quietly entered the public eye.

Finn joined forces with four universities on the Imperial Star, including Dawn University, to participate in this event. A total of 200 people were sent to the "Selivere" star for half a month.

The students were divided into 20 groups and were responsible for different tasks.

Eucommia, Sapindus, Cassia, Mulberry, Magnolia officinalis, Dendrobium and other woody medicinal materials are suitable for planting in March and April in spring. However, the growing conditions are different and cannot be standardized.

For example, Magnolia officinalis seedlings need to be planted in mountains above 800 meters above sea level, and prefer loose and acidic soil rich in humus. If large-scale planting machinery is used, it will definitely cause the soil in the plot to become heavy and compacted.

There is no such problem with manual labor. To some extent, manpower is the most perfect productivity. Except for its slow efficiency, it has almost no disadvantages. This only shortcoming can also be made up by quantity.

When it comes to Xu Weiwei's matter, Finn has taken every detail into consideration.

Finn did not promote this event, nor did he personally lead the team. Many people did not know who the organizer was at first, and they did not know what the planet numbered 9527 meant.

Before they went, they just thought it was arranged by the school. They boarded the starship, landed, and put their luggage away. It was not until they sat in the training room and received a booklet that everyone had, that they realized something was wrong.

"What are these? How come I haven't heard of any of them?"

"Isn't planting trees just about digging holes and watering them? Why are there so many things to pay attention to? Wait...! What the hell is this 'medicinal value' at the end???"

More and more people noticed this, they looked at each other, and the answer in their hearts was about to come out.

At this time, Huang Ying and Wei Lai appeared. They walked into two training rooms respectively and introduced themselves with smiles:

"Hello everyone, I am Huang Ying/Wei Lai from the Avril Traditional Chinese Medicine Research Center."

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

The two had been with Xu Weiwei for a long time and were used to this kind of situation. They quickly controlled the situation and got down to business.

During the following training, everyone sat upright and listened very carefully. After the training was over, they couldn't help asking many questions.

"Teacher! Can I take a photo?"

“Sure, it’s okay to post on social media.”

"Wow~! Really, teacher! Shouldn't this be confidential?"

"If it was really confidential, I wouldn't tell you." Huang Ying pushed up her glasses and smiled. "It's just some superficial information. Besides, if you don't release it, we will officially announce it soon."

"Wow! We're the first ones to know about this!"

"Yes, you are now considered insiders."

The house became a pond, and one could hear the sound of frogs at any time.

"Then, will Selvie come too?" someone asked expectantly.

"The boss has a lot of things to do and may not be able to be there. But she said that she is very confident in leaving this matter to you. You are the most outstanding students selected and you will definitely complete this task successfully."

Everyone in the room was coaxed into submission by just a few words.

When it came time to work, everyone was extremely serious. The spacing error had to be controlled within two centimeters, the fertilizer ratio had to be accurate to grams, and the inclination of the seedlings had to be measured with instruments to ensure that each one was a "good and upright seedling."

I don't know who took the lead, but the 20 groups started competing with each other. Someone else made a statistical table, ranking the group with the most trees planted and the lowest lodging rate, from high to low, and uploaded it to the publicity column of the base. You can see it every day when you enter and leave.

This further fueled their fighting spirit. They set their alarm clocks earlier and earlier, as if they had taken stimulants.

With such enthusiasm, the work that originally took half a month was completed in less than ten days.

Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the goal, everyone felt regretful and began to slack off tacitly. The time it took to plant a tree became eight times the original time. They even wanted to use a brush to sweep away the dust on the leaves.

Although the time is short, they have already formed a bond with this place. The natural and simple environment, the simple and regular life, and a group of like-minded friends. Most importantly, they are increasingly aware of how meaningful they are doing.

These saplings are important new medicines, and they are the hope that someone is eagerly waiting for. They are the ones who sow the seeds of hope.

Fortunately, they were not "repatriated" early. In the remaining time, Huang Ying and Wei Lai took them to visit four major planting bases, where tens of thousands of herbal Chinese medicine seedlings and some low woody plants were cultivated.

When everyone walked into the "Red House" for the first time, they were shocked by its scale.

"I thought the work we did was already great, but compared to this, it's nothing..."

Countless green potted plants are arranged from low to high, in a total of ten rows, like green waterfalls, with no end in sight. Sunshine, rain, fog, and music nourish these plants, making them look extremely lovely.

"These are all planted automatically, with a short growth period and easy management. In comparison, your work is much more difficult and more important," Huang Ying comforted.

Everyone's mood brightened up again, and they visited the base. They were dazzled by the various new and exotic plants, and were amazed by the various magical effects.

After half a month, I don’t know how many photos and videos I have taken. Some people’s memory is full, so they just delete some and take new ones.

On the night before they left, the base held a farewell party for them in the cafeteria.

When the atmosphere was in full swing, Xu Weiwei's face suddenly appeared on the big screen. Someone screamed, hit the friend next to him, and reminded him: "Look!"

Screams rang out one after another, and those who didn't know thought there was an electric leak in the cafeteria floor.

"Hello~ It's so lively, good evening everyone~"

Xu Weiwei leaned closer to the camera to take a look, then greeted them with a smile.

“Ah! Is that a video or a video chat?!”

"I'm in a study room at school right now. I heard that everyone is leaving tomorrow, so I want to meet everyone and say thank you anyway. Even if it's in this form."

"Weier~~~"

"I want to ask everyone, how have you been doing during this period? Are you tired?"

“Not tired!!!”

"So, are you happy?"

"happy!!!"

"Do you like the food in the cafeteria? Have you finished eating?"

“I’m done eating!!!”

Wei Lai covered his mouth and whispered to Huang Ying: "Is the boss doing military training?"

Huang Ying didn't say anything, but gave him an appreciative look.

After asking about their lives, Xu Weiwei smiled happily: "That's good. This is the first time that Star 9527 is hosting guests. I hope everyone will be satisfied and leave a good impression on this trip."

"it is good--!"

Xu Weiwei paused. She had not expected that everyone would be so enthusiastic. When she had time to speak, she continued, "Here, on behalf of everyone in the research center and all the people in the interstellar space, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you - thank you for your selfless dedication and hard work these days."

"The growth of woody plants is very slow. It takes 4-5 years for mulberry trees to be bark-harvested, 6-8 years for cassia trees, and 15-20 years for Eucommia ulmoides and Magnolia officinalis. By then, no one may remember your names. Your labor today may not necessarily benefit you in the future."

"But you still came. And you tried your best and did a great job."

Xu Weiwei's eyes passed through the screen and slowly swept over every person she saw, as if she wanted to remember these impressions one by one.

"I think this is what some great man said, 'It doesn't matter if I succeed, but I must be part of the success.'"

Many people felt their noses sore and tears welled up in their eyes. They only now understood what Selvie had just said to thank them.

It turns out that they were given the medicine in advance on behalf of those who would use it in the future, just in case they couldn't receive it in the future.

Huang Ying and Wei Lai started talking to each other in private again - "Boss, this is such a classic, write it down and make it into a propaganda slogan."

Finally, Xu Weiwei suggested taking a group photo, printing it out, and marking everyone's name, time, and year. It would be like a time gallery. New photos would be posted every year.

"From now on, this will be everyone's 'family portrait'."

"Everyone is welcome to come home often. I hope that next time, I can really meet everyone, hug them, and say hello."

Huang Ying brought the camera and said, "I'll count to three, two, one, and everyone say 'eggplant' together."

Everyone wiped away their tears and showed their brightest smile.
