Wear It with Space - Chapter 10
Shen Lingxiao once read a myth that said that when a fisherman was fishing one day, he saw a red light suddenly rise on the surface of the sea. He threw the fishing net down and found a valuable treasure. Since then, he has lived a prosperous life with treasures.
Now Shen Ling watched Father Zhao throw the fishing net down, and could not help but think about it. Although she woke up and found herself lying on a fishing boat, when she thought of the delicious seafood, Shen Ling felt that this time was worth it.
It’s just that the system’s voice rang in my mind before I waited for the treasures and seafood I imagined.
System 25: “The host has one hundred and ninety points, is it used to upgrade the space.”
Shen Ling blinked, how could she forget this.
“Yes.”
System 25: “A total of 100 points are required to upgrade to the first-level space, and the space is expanded to twice the original size. The land area is about 20 square meters, the pool is 100 cubic meters, and one warehouse.”
When the last word fell, Shen Ling felt a jingle ring in his mind, and then heard the system 25: “The space has been upgraded.”
Shen Ling communicated with consciousness, and found that the original space of 300 cubic meters was enlarged a lot, and a small black land was added to the center of the space, and there was a clear pool next to the black land. At the edge of the space, there is a large warehouse, in which everything that Shen Ling had accumulated before.
Shen Ling felt very satisfied after reading it. It was almost as she expected, but at the same time she had another question: “Can any crops be grown on the black soil?”
System 25: “The black soil can grow any crop, and the harvest time and output are equal to the outside. The pond can also cultivate any aquatic product, and the growth rate is also equal to the outside.”
That’s great, Shen Ling couldn’t help but smile, and he could talk about planting or something later. The most important thing at the moment is to catch some seafood and put it in the pool. When he thinks that he can eat fresh seafood anytime in the future, Shen Ling feels that life is suddenly full of light.
System 25: “Whether to accept the third task, the task content is to marry yourself out, the task time is unlimited.”
Shen Ling answered without hesitation: “Accept.”
System: “When the host finds a man who voluntarily marries Fluttershy, the task is completed. After the task is completed, one hundred points will be awarded.”
“Xiaodie, why are you in a daze? The net is closed!” Father Zhao interrupted the conversation between Shen Ling and the system.
Shen Ling replied: “Come here.” He staggered to the bow of the boat and helped Father Zhao pull the fishing net up from the sea.
Father Zhao looked at the dozens of small yellow croaker and Spanish mackerel in the fishing net with a smile on his face, “These mackerel are quite big, but they can be sold for a good price.” He looked back at Shen Ling. “Looking back and waiting for the money, you can also pull a few feet of cloth to make new clothes and wear.”
He said this no less than a hundred times, but the girl never heard it. Wearing dirty old clothes all day, it’s no wonder that I’m sixteen, and no one has come to propose marriage.
This time, he was also habitually persuading. After hearing this, the girl subconsciously smelled the smell on her body. Suddenly, he didn’t know how to figure it out, and said, “Okay, I listen to my father.”
Father Zhao couldn’t help nagging a few more words: “Actually, he also blamed him for being bad, because there is no kid in the family, so he treats you a girl as a kid. As a result, you become what you are now. You don’t like flowers or fans. , You don’t look like a girl at all. Seeing that you will be seventeen by the end of the year, and you don’t have an in-law’s family. My father is sad!” After a pause, he couldn’t help but feel relieved to see that the girl rarely interrupted him. The words came out.
“As far as you want to hire a door-to-door son-in-law, according to my father, forget it. Whoever has a good family background is willing to be the door-to-door son-in-law, even if it is for you to find someone with a good white family background, wait a few minutes. In the year, after two words of other people’s gossip, sooner or later I will have to quarrel with you. After all, the child is a man if his surname is yours. He cares about it.” Mr. Zhao said, he said. Take a long breath, “Think about it yourself!”
Shen Ling watched Father Zhao throw the fishing net down again, a daze flashed across her face. These few words were too informative, and she couldn’t react for a while. After she calmed down and received all the memories of the fisher girl Fluttershy, she couldn’t help taking out the wallet previously stored in the space and taking out the makeup mirror in the bag.
Shen Ling saw a girl with a dark complexion reflected in the dazzling mirror. To be honest, the girl’s features are not ugly, with thin eyebrows, small but bright eyes, round nose, and thick lips. With a little modification, she is a delicate woman.
It’s a pity that Xiaodie has become more and more male since he went fishing with Daddy Zhao at the age of ten. Not only does he not like to dress up, but he also doesn’t want to wear new clothes. She doesn’t comb her hair well and her face every day. Washing, almost every day for three hundred and sixty days a year, I wear old clothes that cannot see the original color. As a result, she is almost seventeen now, and no one cares about it.
No one cares, you should find the reason from yourself! But this Xiaodie not only didn’t find the reason from himself, but instead came up with the idea of recruiting a son-in-law.
Fortunately, Father Zhao was right, and he did not agree to this matter alive and well.
Shen Ling put down the mirror and couldn’t help but let out a sigh. Xiaodie’s female character must be changed, at least to get rid of the sloppy image problem, otherwise she really can’t stand it.
After Mr. Zhao cast down the fishing net, he sat on the bow of the boat and looked at the sea and the sky for a long time, and suddenly said, “Xiaodie, hurry up and collect the net. I don’t think it’s right. It seems that a storm is coming.”
When Shen Ling heard that he could no longer take care of the others, he hurriedly helped Father Zhao to pull the fishing net up, and the two of them did not see how many fish there were inside, and hurriedly paddled towards the nearest island. Fortunately, shortly after they went to sea, they were still in the coastal waters with many reef islands, and the nearest island was only a few dozen nautical miles away.
After half an hour, the two of them rowed the fishing boat to the edge of the island, and Shen Ling wiped the sweat from his face, “Father, are you wrong? It’s a good day, how can there be the storm you said?”
Father Zhao snorted: “Daddy has been at sea for so many years, if there is a storm, I can still make a mistake. Okay, don’t be too long, hurry up and find a place to shelter from the rain.”
Although this island occupies a small area, there are a lot of mountains and rivers. The father and daughter moored the fishing boat and found a cave that could accommodate them shortly after they went ashore.
Although Shen Ling didn’t believe that the storm would come, he still went to the nearby area to gather some dry firewood just in case. Father Zhao was busy moving the food, pots, pans and pans on the boat and the fish that he caught up to the cave.
The two of them were almost busy, and the original blue sky changed color.
Father Zhao glanced at the girl whose face was discolored, “let’s believe it now! This sea is like that baby’s face changes as soon as it changes. Don’t look at the calm and the waves at the time, what will happen after an hour?”
Shen Ling didn’t say a word, and honestly washed rice and fish to prepare for the next lunch.
Lunch is rice with stewed Spanish mackerel. Shen Ling hasn’t eaten rice for a long time, even if Zhao’s rice is the cheaper brown rice, she still eats it with relish. But the thing that made her most unable to stop was the stewed Spanish mackerel.
Because there were not many condiments on the boat, Shen Ling could only choose to stew, and she didn’t put anything except coarse salt. I thought that this approach would not get rid of the fishy, after all, Shen Ling was used to putting a spoonful of sugar and a little rice vinegar to remove the fishy when he was used to stewing fish. But what is unexpected is that although the fresh Spanish mackerel has a fishy smell after being stewed, the fishy smell also reveals a fresh fragrance.
Finally, Shen Ling ate two large bowls of rice before putting down the chopsticks.
Father Zhao’s mind was not on food at all, so naturally he didn’t notice that the girl had eaten a bowl of rice more than usual. Shen Ling washed the dishes and chopsticks. When he came back, he was still watching the sky by the side of the cave. He muttered to himself: “It is estimated that this storm will not stop for two or three hours. It seems that I will spend the night here tonight. “
Father Zhao’s prediction was indeed correct, and it was almost evening when the sea gradually calmed down. At this time, it is no longer suitable to go fishing at sea, and the father and daughter plan to spend the night on the island.
Father Zheng was worried about the fishing boat, and when the rain stopped, he left the cave.
When Shen Ling was idle, he also went out of the cave, picking up some seashells washed up by the waves on the shore. Among shellfish, she has only eaten scallops, but unfortunately, there is no scallop she knows on the beach. There were many shellfish that Xiaodie had eaten, and Shen Ling picked up a lot. There is also a relatively large seashell, which Shen Ling also picked up.
After returning, Father Zhao saw the big seashells, so he couldn’t help but pick up a knife to pry open the shells, cut the shellfish inside, and carefully searched for them. Then pick up another one and continue the previous action.
Shen Ling seemed to understand something, “Father, what are you doing?”
Daddy Zhao said, “Most of the seashells you picked up were pearl shells. You’ll find out when Daddy finishes reading them.”
Shen Ling looked at the seashells expectantly, “Father, do you think there will be pearls in it?”
Father Zhao glanced at her: “Even pearl shells cannot guarantee that all of them have pearls. It is good to have one out of ten.”
Shen Ling previously thought that since this kind of seashell is big, there must be a lot of shell meat in it, so he picked up a lot, almost over twenty.
After more than 20 seashells were pried apart, two pearls the size of soybeans were found, and they were very irregular in shape.
Father Zhao didn’t feel disappointed either. He handed two pearls to his girlfriend, “This pearl can’t be sold for a lot of money even if you sell it, you can take it and play with it!”
Shen Ling took the two pearls and watched them carefully for a while before putting them away. Although these two pearls are almost used as decorations, if they are ground into pearl powder with a stone pestle, they are natural beauty products.
Except for the very individual like Xiaodie, this girl has no love for beauty. Shen Ling is no exception. She remembered that the neighbor’s aunt once went to Linhai city for a trip, where she bought pearl powder made from local pearls for a thousand yuan. Although it cannot be called as white as snow after using it, it is whiter than before. It can be seen that the whitening effect of pearl powder is really good.
If there is enough pearl powder, Shen Ling believes that the current self can also be a lot in vain. With the so-called concealing one hundred ugliness, Shen Ling did not believe that he could not even find a man he liked.
So after dinner, Shen Ling went to the beach to pick up the remaining pearl shells, and finally collected five pearls of different sizes.
Father Zhao thought she was a child’s disposition, and wanted to find the priceless pearl from the pearl, so he ignored it and let her toss. Seeing that it was getting late, he put the bedding on the ground and snored after lying on it for a while.
After Shen Ling watched Pearl, he found that Father Zhao was asleep.
It turned out that Xiaodie had been accustomed to the days when he used the boat as his home or the island as his home since he went to sea with Father Zhao when he was ten years old.
But now that she changed her job to Shen Ling, she not only became a fisher girl but also spent the night in the cave, she couldn’t help being a little excited and didn’t want to go to bed so early. She simply used her consciousness to communicate with the space in her mind, and wanted to put some of the remaining living seashells into the pool of space.
However, she tried holding the seashell several times, but never put the seashell into the pool in the space. She was suspicious, and when she thought something was wrong, the voice of the system rang in her mind.
System 25: “Remind the host that when you want to grow crops or aquatic products, the host needs to enter the space in person to complete the operation.”
Shen Ling was surprised and delighted: “Then can I enter the space now?”
System 25: “Of course, as long as the word “enter” is recited silently, the host can enter the bound space.”
Shen Ling glanced at Father Zhao, who was well asleep, and couldn’t help chanting the word “enter” silently. Then, when he became lighter, he came to a world with very soft light. Before, he used consciousness to communicate with space. Now that he enters the space personally, Shen Ling will truly realize that he has a space.
The light in the space is not only very soft, but the temperature is also very suitable, equivalent to about 20 degrees Celsius outside. What makes Shen Ling most comfortable is that there will be breeze blowing from time to time here, bringing a unique kind of fresh air.
She couldn’t help but took a few deep breaths before putting the seashell in her hand into the pool.
The air here is better than the ancient mountains and forests. If Shen Ling is not afraid that Daddy Zhao will not find himself when he wakes up, he really wants to stay in it all the time.
However, just in case, Shen Ling left the space after putting the sea shells in the pool.
Father Zhao slept well and didn’t notice her leaving at all.
Shen Ling breathed a sigh of relief, gently unfolded his bedding, and then lay down to sleep.
There was no word for a night. When Shen Ling woke up at dawn the next day, Father Zhao had already cooked breakfast, a seafood porridge made with brown rice and shellfish.
After breakfast, the two set off for the island. When Dad Zhao left home, he originally told Aunt Zhao that he would return home within three or two days. It’s just that there was not much harvest on the first day, and there was a storm on the second day, so Father Zhao and Shen Ling stayed at sea for two more days. They waited until the fish pond on the boat was full of fish, and then they paddled in the early morning. Go in the direction of the fishing village.
After landing, Father Zhao had almost processed the fish in the fish pond at the pier, and the small fish that could not be sold were prepared to take them home to eat by themselves.
When the father and daughter returned to a house in the east of the village carrying a bunch of small fish, Aunt Zhao, who stayed at home, was receiving a door-to-door matchmaker.
Hearing the movement outside the door, Auntie Zhao got up and said, “Mostly my son and daughter have returned.”
The matchmaker smiled and said, “It’s good to dare.
After Shen Ling entered the door, she saw a woman wearing sauce-colored clothes and a silver hairpin smiled enthusiastically at her: “Xiaodie is back. She hasn’t seen her for a few days, and she’s a lot taller. She will be married in the future. A good hand of life.”
Shen Ling recognized that this was a well-known Li matchmaker from all over the world, knowing that she mostly came for her own marriage, thinking that girls in this era are still very reserved, so she smiled slightly and said nothing.
After recognizing who the man was, Mr. Zhao gave the fish in his hand to Shen Ling, and took the opportunity to get rid of the girl.
After Shen Ling left, Father Zhao said: “Why did Li’s sister have time to sit in our house today?”
Matchmaker Li smiled and said, “Don’t give me this set. I know that you don’t want to hire a son-in-law for a girl. I don’t want to be boring. I am here today. I am entrusted by the old man in your village. Die is his daughter-in-law.”
Father Zhao thought for a while: “I remember that there are four sons in his family, and all three of them are married. The fourth son is fifteen this year!”
Matchmaker Li said with a smile: “Yes, because this child is an old child, his parents are so coquettish, so I want to find a capable daughter-in-law. After all, no one is as capable as Xiaodie in these ten miles and eight villages. So just ask me to ask you what you mean. If you are willing to nod, his family is willing to pay a dowry gift of ten taels of silver.”
