Chapter 250 All Blossomed and Fated
Several people excitedly ran to fetch water and carefully poured the spiritual spring water onto the soil. The water shimmered mysteriously in the sunlight, and every drop seemed to breathe new life into the land. They watered again and again, their eyes fixed on the newly emerging sprouts, hoping for a miracle.
Finally, they were surprised to find that, unknowingly, they had used a single day in the space to make these spiritual fruits grow, bloom, and bear fruit. What was once just tender green buds had now grown into lush fruit trees, each laden with heavy fruit, emitting an enchanting light and an alluring fragrance.
Su Siyi looked at the fruit tree full of spiritual fruits, her eyes wide open, her mouth slightly open, her face full of surprise, "This, the effect is too good!" There was uncontrollable surprise in her voice.
"Yes, from now on we will have endless spiritual fruits to eat. For practitioners like us, this is an inestimable resource!" Su Wenxin raised his chin proudly, his face filled with a proud smile, as if these spiritual fruits were a miracle created by him alone.
"Then second brother, pick them quickly." Su Siyi also jumped up excitedly. She couldn't wait to put these magical fruits into her pocket.
"Well, this crystal pear is so rare, isn't it? Now we can grow it ourselves. That's fantastic! I'm going to eat one and then plant the core. That way, I'll have plenty more crystal pears." Su Wenxin said, reaching out and picking a crystal pear. The crystal pear shimmered in his hand like a precious gem. He opened his mouth and devoured the pear in a few crunches. Then he quickly found a suitable spot near the tree, buried the core, and happily went to fetch spiritual spring water to water the pear.
"There are so many fruits, let's pick them first. I don't know if these fruit trees will bear fruit in the future. It would be a pity if they only bear fruit all at once." Nangong Jingming looked at the tree full of fruits, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes. He gently stroked the trunk, as if communicating with the fruit tree.
"Then let's give it a try. It would be best if it can continue to grow and bear fruit." Su Siyi said, her eyes full of hope. That hope was like a spark, burning in her eyes.
"Well, let's pick them!" everyone said in unison.
Soon they began their busy and joyful time of picking fruits. Su Siyi was like a nimble little squirrel, moving between the fruit trees, picking the fruits one by one and putting them into the basket.
Brothers Su Wenying and Su Wenxin were collecting fruit under the tree, stacking them neatly. Nangong Jingming was also busy, carefully observing the condition of the fruit trees as he picked them. After picking the fruit, they watered the trees again. Seeing that the fruit trees were still full of vitality and continued to bloom and bear fruit under the nourishment of the spiritual spring water, they left the jade pendant space with peace of mind.
"Where have you all been? Why haven't you been seen since early this morning?" Su Shiqian asked worriedly, frowning. He waited in the house for a long time, but the children were nowhere to be seen, and he was filled with anxiety.
"Dad, we went to a place to work. Look, this is some fruit I brought for you." Su Siyi smiled and took out a basket of fruit and handed it to her father. The fruit in the basket was colorful and fragrant. Each one was plump and juicy, as if telling of their extraordinaryness.
"Girl, why did you go to the farm to do farm work? Why are you covered in dirt?" Su Shiqian took the fruit basket and put it down. Only then did he notice his daughter's miserable appearance. Her hair and clothes were covered in dirt, as if she had just rolled in the mud.
"Haha, you found out about this, Dad. We're still working on the farm. We're so tired! I need to go wash up." Su Siyi looked down at the dirt on her body, scratched her head sheepishly, and said with a smile. That smile looked particularly bright on her face covered in dirt.
"Okay, go quickly, all of you go wash up too! After you come out, explain it clearly!" Su Shiqian glared at the dirty children with some disgust, but his eyes were full of love.
"Okay!" Several people responded and quickly ran back to their rooms to wash up. This was their first time doing farm work, and they were really messy. There were leaves in their hair and a few mud marks on their faces, but they all had satisfied and happy smiles on their faces.
"Honey, have you seen them?" Han Shuqiong's voice was filled with anxiety, her brows furrowed slightly, her eyes filled with worry. She had searched the house and yard again and again, but there was no sign of the children. Her heart was hanging in the air, like a thread tugging at her neck, unable to let go.
"They're back. I don't know where they went; they're all covered in mud. But they brought back a basket of fruit. These are your favorites. I'll go wash them for you." Su Shiqian said hurriedly when he saw his wife return. A gentle smile played on his face, trying to ease his wife's worries. As he spoke, he walked towards the kitchen with a brisk pace. In his eyes, the basket of fruit was the best proof that the children had returned safely.
In fact, they were still a little worried. Siyi had just returned home, and they always treated her as a child. However, in the eyes of parents, no matter how old a child is, he or she is still a child, and they will always be worried about him or her.
"I'm glad you're back!" Han Shuqiong felt relieved when she heard this, and her tense nerves relaxed. She breathed a long sigh of relief, dragging her exhausted body onto the sofa. She felt like she was falling apart, but a relieved smile was already on her face.
"Here, honey, look at this fruit! It looks delicious. Eat some." Su Shiqian approached with a smile, holding a plate of cleanly washed, translucent fruit. The fruit shone enticingly on the plate, its fragrance filling the air. Each one seemed a treasure gifted by nature. He gently placed the plate before his wife, his eyes filled with doting, as if presenting her with a precious gift.
"Haha, what are you talking about? I can't eat too much of this fruit. I can't digest it, but I can eat two." Han Shuqiong looked at the plate of fruit, a flicker of admiration in her eyes, but she still said it with some resignation. She knew her physical condition and couldn't overindulge in such delicious but difficult-to-digest energy. Still, she couldn't help but pick up one and gently bite it. With a crunching sound, the sweet and sour juice spread in her mouth, and the taste made her eyes narrow, filled with enjoyment.
"Then you can practice a few more sets of Tai Chi to burn some energy, and then you can eat more fruit." Su Shiqian said with a smile. He knew his wife's love for Tai Chi, and he also knew that proper exercise was good for her health. This fruit might become a motivation for her to exercise.
"Yes, I feel like I'll feel even better if I do a set of Tai Chi right after eating these fruits. I'm going to go practice," Han Shuqiong said, as if suddenly enlightened, a flicker of excitement in her eyes. As she spoke, she stood up swiftly and walked briskly towards the courtyard, as if she couldn't wait to experience the wonderful energy brought by the fruits through boxing.
Su Shiqian watched his wife enthusiastically walk toward the courtyard to begin practicing, his lips curling up slightly in a gentle smile. He was well aware of his wife's recent obsession with Tai Chi, and understood that practice required complete concentration, so he naturally didn't bother her. He sat down on the sofa again, his eyes occasionally glancing toward the stairs, still pondering the children's disappearance so early in the morning, waiting for them to come down and give him a reasonable explanation.
After Su Siyi, Su Wenying, and Su Wenxin finished washing up, they emerged from their rooms, refreshed and ready, heading towards the hall. Their footsteps echoed in the quiet corridor, as they whispered to each other about their wonderful morning experiences.
"Dad, where are the others?" Su Siyi's clear voice rang out in the hall. Her bright big eyes looked around, but she didn't see any other family members, so she asked with a puzzled look on her face.
"They all went to do their own things. You guys are nowhere to be seen so early in the morning. Where did you go?" Su Shiqian frowned slightly, with confusion in his eyes. He really couldn't imagine where the children could have gone, and they were covered in mud.
"Dad, I told you I was going to work, doing farm work," Su Siyi blinked and answered truthfully. Her tone was relaxed, as if she thought this was a perfectly normal thing.
"Do farm work? Our Su family still needs you to do farm work? How come I don't know where we need to farm?" Su Shiqian looked at them with disbelief, trying to read their expressions. In his impression, the Su family didn't seem to have any farm work for them to do.
"Dad, let's talk about the details after everyone comes back!" Su Siyi said helplessly. She didn't want to repeat it over and over again, and this matter couldn't be explained clearly in a few words. It would be better to wait until everyone was here and take everyone to see it directly. This would be more intuitive.
"Oh, do we have to wait for your brother Wenyu to come back together? He should be here at noon, so there are still two hours left." Su Shiqian thought for a while and said. He knew that Su Wenyu was out on business and would be back at noon today.
"Well, okay. Let's wait until he comes back and I'll tell you about this." Su Siyi nodded and said.
"Okay, have you guys had breakfast? I haven't seen you this morning." Su Shiqian asked with concern, his eyes full of love. He was worried that the children would be hungry because they were so busy.
"Dad, we have eaten it, you don't have to worry!" Su Siyi replied with a smile.
"It's good that you have eaten. Then you can go your separate ways. Everyone should be back by lunchtime." Su Shiqian said. He waved his hand, indicating that the children could move freely.
