"Sister-in-law, should we plant those saplings directly in front?"

"Yes, that's right. First, you need to dig a hole with a hoe, plant it, and then cover the roots. I've tested it; this soil is very fertile, so it doesn't need fertilizer yet."

The group looked at their clothes.

Lia saw it too.

"Why don't you change your clothes first?"

They shook their heads decisively. "Sister-in-law, no need. We can just use our Spiritual Power to isolate her in a bit."

Lia nodded. "That works too. You guys plant them in front, and I'll help them ripen from behind."

Now, with the 2S version, it's no longer as simple as just getting plants to sprout and break through the soil.

The four exchanged glances. They had heard the legend of the sister-in-law before, but there was a difference between a tree and vegetables. Reaching maturity in a single day was simply unheard of.

But they quickly put aside their doubts and took action.

Five trees of each variety were planted.

When the group was halfway through their work, they realized that the tall, sturdy trees behind them, which were already in bloom, could be used as shade for swinging!

The four of them were dumbfounded.

The group was planting trees too slowly, so Lia had some free time. She changed into her protective suit and took the beehive from her spatial storage to the flower bushes in the corner.

The fruit also needs pollination by bees.

One box wasn't enough, so we added two more.

These are bees that Mom helped find by offering a reward.

Lia happily put the beehives down, but then worried about the rain.

So we found a few cabinets that could hold the beehives. They looked a bit out of place, but they were functional.

evening

The group had been working in the research lab all along and had never done any physical labor before, so some of them were exhausted.

Lia made them honey grapefruit tea.

The group instantly perked up and kept praising, "Sister-in-law, you're a genius! It's so delicious, the best water they've ever tasted!"

Lia didn't dare reveal her secret; she just smiled.

Just then, Klein, who had recently taken a liking to food research, came out of the kitchen. "Kids, come and eat! We won't wait for Quinn tonight; he has to work overtime, so let's eat first."

The four people froze instantly.

As soon as the kitchen door opened, several fragrant aromas wafted out.

They felt their mouths watering, and after all the physical labor, they were starving...

They dared not agree; their superior was now Lia.

Lia stood up and waved to them, "Come on, let's help. We can clean up together after we eat."

Now they felt relieved.

After dinner

The group fell silent again.

Why is the eldest brother so lucky? Why?!

Not only does he have a beautiful wife, but he also has a whole family that can cook! And the food is absolutely delicious!

The thought of their nutrient solution makes it hard to swallow; it feels like they've wasted decades of their lives!

Lia knew they would do this, so she told them.

"In a while, I'll have someone publish a few recipes online that aren't for commercial use, so you can make them at home. You've worked hard today, go home early. You'll have things to do tomorrow, so you can skip breakfast if you want."

Everyone: "Yes!"

His voice was strong and clear, like that of a soldier who had just had a good meal.

The next day

The vegetables I planted a while ago are finally ready to be harvested.

However, Lia is not planning to sell it yet, while Quinn is reluctant to part with it because it is his wife's achievement. Although he is not worried about bad people using it, he just doesn't want to give it away to them for free.

Lia: "The rest should be sent to Dad and your workplace, and also to Mom's."

Quinn could already picture them taking off.

Then, Lia said, "I plan to release a few general recipes after your product launches. Quinn, will you support me?"

Quinn held the person in his arms, his breath warm and moist.

"I support you. I'll have my lawyer handle it, the patent fees..."

"No need for patent fees. Just specify that it cannot be used commercially. When the Academy of Sciences of Sciences launches its crops, sales will definitely increase."

Quinn pinched his nose. "You've arranged everything. And what's my role?"

Lia smiled and said leisurely, "Don't you understand your own role?"

The next second

The enchanting bedroom was littered with pieces of clothing.

Lying in the bathtub, Lia regretted her earlier careless talk; her back was acting up again.

On a certain edge star

The atmosphere in the Green Wolf Family has been very tense lately. Ever since the heir brought back an equally beautiful fox, the once harmonious family members have become hostile towards each other, with many brothers and sisters starting to sabotage each other, and even the patriarch has been bewitched.

Originally, Lia's father, [ Hu'er Lo], was the only fox in the Green Wolf Family. He was not only handsome and young, but even after more than ten years, he could still evoke a protective instinct in people.

However, recently, a bright red fox appeared in the house, which gradually made Hu'er a marginal figure.

His second wife, the head of the Qinglang family, enjoyed frequenting brothels.

For more than a decade, in order to ensure that he and Lia could receive protection, he could only live a life of mere survival, and he dared not show favoritism towards Lia, as that would only make it easier for Lia to hate him.

Hu'er wasn't upset by being ignored, because when he heard others say that Lia had survived, hope was rekindled in his heart.

The day Lia was abandoned, he was tricked into going out. While he was away, the group of people threw Lia onto a desolate planet. When he returned and learned the news, it was as if the sky had fallen. He tried to find her but was locked in an iron cage.

His Spiritual Power is only at B Rank. Forget about revenge; a single bite from the Qinglang would kill him. He can only plan for the future.

First, escape, then buy a quantum computer.

But how to get out is still a problem.

Hu'er sat on the swing, her beautiful long white hair cascading down her back like a waterfall.

He closed his eyes, and a map appeared in his mind—a map of the Qinglang family's villa complex.

The path is very complex.

He recently overheard something through a dog hole in the northwest corner... Maybe he can try it tonight! There's no time to lose!

But what happens after you get out?

Should we look for Lia?

We need to find him, and then secretly observe how he's doing. If he's under the protection of a powerful orc, then we won't bother him anymore.

His ex-wife left him a lot of money in a personal account, which he can use after Lia turns 18.

So before marrying his second wife, he created a fake identity. Now that Lia is an adult, the account should be automatically unblocked.

After arriving at the Central Star and confirming Lia's safety, I will secretly transfer the money to him.

Hu'er, having made her plan, returned to her little villa and changed her clothes.

Wait until the night is dark and the wind is high

Hu'er donned a black cloak, his steps hurried, and the hat concealed his white hair.

He has now learned to conceal his breathing and hide from others.

He was just passing by a villa when he accidentally kicked a bottle. Luckily, a charming and coquettish voice suddenly appeared and saved him.

Hu'er gently patted her heart and continued walking towards the northwest corner.

The sound just now must have been the red fox rushing around, whether intentionally or unintentionally, it was unclear, but in any case, the fox helped him.

They successfully reached the corner.

He brushed aside the weeds by the wall and found the dog hole without a doubt, his eyes brimming with undisguised joy.

My heart was pounding really fast.
