170 Experiment (3)
It hadn’t rained in the past few days, so Grandma went to water the vegetables early every morning.
Then, Gu Qingming followed her every day and repeated her previous actions.
After watering the vegetables for three days, Grandma looked at the green seedlings and frowned.
“Strange, it’s the same water. Why do these seedlings look different?” Grandma muttered to herself in confusion.
Gu Qingming looked at the row of vegetable seedlings in the soil. Their differing heights made it seem like there as a flight stairs in front of her, and a guilty expression flashed across her face.
Those that had been watered with less of the spiritual spring water were smaller while those which were watered with more spiritual spring water grew well and looked cute.
Therefore, the same vegetable seedlings, which were given the same amount of water, and the same nutrients progressed differently in their growth.
Coincidentally, a villager passed by. When he saw the growth of the vegetables in his grandmother’s field, he smiled and said, “Jiaoying, you’re biased when tending to these vegetables. The difference in their growth is too obvious.”
Grandma Shi also smiled and said, “I’m also puzzled by this question. They’re clearly the same vegetable seedlings, and received the same nutrients, and the same watering, but their growth seems different. If I didn’t buy the seedlings from someone that I know, I would have thought that the seedlings she sold to me had been chosen prior to the sale.”
“You’ve been watering these days?”
“Yeah!”
“No wonder they are growing so well. Even the smallest in your field looks better than mine. Besides, I seemed to have planted vegetables a few days earlier than yours.”
“Really?” Grandma Shi didn’t notice anything wrong either. “Then maybe it’s this seedling.”
“Which family did you buy this vegetable from?”
“Lai Qiuying from Donglin Village.”
“Ah, I bought hers too. But why isn’t mine as good-looking as yours?” The villager was puzzled. “I water it every day too.”
Gu Qingming was speechless. This coincidence was really hard to explain.
She didn’t say anything and pretended not to hear him.
The villagers chatted with her grandmother for a while before leaving.
After Gu Qingming watered three plots of land with her grandmother, she went back. Her grandmother was carrying a bucket with some fresh vegetables that she had just picked.
She asked Gu Qingming, “Darling, why have you been watering the vegetables with me these past few days?”
Gu Qingming smiled and said, “It’s fun. I’m treating it as a exercise.”
Of course, Grandma Shi would not suspect anything for no reason.
She would never have thought that the growth of her vegetables was caused by her granddaughter.
When Gu Qingming returned home, her second aunt had already made breakfast and was waiting to eat when she came back from work.
This time, Gu Qingming ate tomato and egg noodles.
She couldn’t help but admire his second aunt’s culinary skills.
A simple bowl of tomato and egg noodles was not only aesthetically pleasing, but was also very delicious, making Gu Qingming crave for more.
After some consideration, Second Aunt wanted to open a private kitchen with her culinary skills.
The whole family was supportive.
Gu Qingming naturally supported it. With Second Aunt’s culinary skills, she could definitely start a business. Not to mention making a fortune, it could at least be considered a huge income for the entire family.
If there was a need to expand in the future, Gu Qingming could invest.
Vegetables, kitchen. Gu Qingming’s eyes lit up.
Yes, this could totally form a chain.
However, she still needed to carry out more detailed planning.
Gu Qingming’s heart for business, which had been quiet for a while, immediately became active.
