Chapter 89: Chapter 89: Playing with Earthworms, Do You Want to Play?

After returning home, Xiao Wanshan and his son never mentioned their work.

As they said themselves, work is work, and home is home.

At home, they only talked about trivial daily matters and the family would chat together.

Xiao Siqian was very puzzled, didn’t the villagers of Xiao Family Village know that the father and son had started such a big company, and did Aunt and Jinli know?

Uncle didn’t talk about work, and Aunt didn’t seem to ask about it either.

So, he really couldn’t be sure whether the mother and daughter knew or not. In fact, he wanted to test Jinli someday to see if she knew.

But, Jinli seemed to have become really fascinated with farming recently.

Well, she was in the greenhouse every day, tinkering around.

At first, Xiao’s mother would go to the field to help, but after a few days, seeing her daughter doing this and that, she began to doubt whether she could grow vegetables at all, so she just stopped going. Let her daughter do what she liked, after all, that piece of land was just for her to play with.

This was exactly what Xiao Jinli wanted.

Without Xiao’s mother around, she could be a little more unrestricted.

To make watering more convenient, Xiao’s father had specially arranged a pipe connected to the well water at home, so they wouldn’t have to carry water.

Five points of land, divided into ten long plots, each with its own boundary and different seeds sown.

Some seeds had been sown for quite a few days, and now one or two tiny tender buds could be seen.

Xiao Siqian walked into the greenhouse and saw Xiao Jinli squatting, seemingly busy with something.

As he approached, he was suddenly speechless.

She was playing with earthworms.

He saw an earthworm trying to escape into the ground, only to be dug out by Xiao Jinli again. Then she twisted it like a twisty doughnut.

Xiao Siqian, who had always been afraid of soft and cold animals, felt his scalp tingle from the sight of it.

He thought to himself, “What a cute little girl, how could she have such a wicked taste?

Fortunately, having been here for some time, he had gradually adapted to the occasional sight of birds, frogs, snakes, and insects.

Otherwise, given his previous life, he would probably have been startled by the sight of a frog.

“Oh, Little Sister Jinli, what are you doing?” Xiao Siqian asked, “Playing with earthworms?”

Xiao Jinli nodded, “Yes, playing with earthworms.”

Then, she pinched an earthworm from the soil and handed it to him, asking,

“Do you want to play? It’s quite fun.”

Xiao Siqian’s face changed immediately, and he shook his head, “No, I don’t want to play.”

Seeing the earthworms dug out by Xiao Jinli, he asked doubtfully, “Are these earthworms larger than those in other places?”

Since he had come here, the largest earthworms he had seen were only as thick as chopsticks.

But the earthworms dug out by Xiao Jinli were as thick as an adult man’s thumb and long, at least twenty or thirty centimeters.
