Chapter 60: Porridge


At dinner time, Xiao Lingyu told her parents, “Mom, I’ll walk brother to school tomorrow.”


Xiao Lingye was startled and immediately said, “Sis, you don’t need to do that. I’m already an adult. If someone sees you walking me to school, I’ll be laughed at! Besides, I can go on my own!”


Xiao Lingyu countered, “I’m going with you because I want to go to town, not because of you! There’s a market fair tomorrow, and I want to go take a look.”


Brother Xiao pouted. “Fine!” He thought his sister cared about him.


Mother Xiao was worried when she heard that. She said, “Yu ‘Er, I don’t think you should go. If you want to buy anything, just tell your father or me. We’ll go shopping for you. I mean, if you run into people from the Lan or Chen Family…” They wouldn’t be easy to deal with.


Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, “Mom, nothing will happen. They wouldn’t dare to do anything.”


Mother Xiao was still worried. “That might not be true. Lan Hongxing is a gangster. What if you run into him?”


Xiao Lingyu comforted her mother. “Mom, don’t worry. I have friends in the town police station. Lan Hongxing wouldn’t dare do anything to me.”


Xiao Lingye added, “Mom, I’ll protect Sis! Don’t worry!”


Mother Xiao sighed and relented. “Fine, but you need to be careful!”


That night, Xiao Lingyu disappeared into the farming space. She was stunned by what she saw. The seeds had grown to reach her calves.


“They grow so fast?” Xiao Lingyu gasped, “It has only been one afternoon!” Then again, the vegetables turned giant over one night. “Hmm, it looks like the spring water can remove impurities and promote growth. After the impurities are expelled, the taste is sublimated. That makes sense.” Xiao Lingyu speculated. She was excited. “In that case, I should have my family drink some of the pure spring water.”


Xiao Lingyu exited the space and rushed to the kitchen. By then, everyone was already asleep. No one spotted Xiao Lingyu sneaking into the kitchen.


Xiao Lingyu opened the water barrel. She channeled her mind, and another miracle happened!


The spring water flowed out between her fingers and right into the barrel. The sound of flowing water was loud in the night, but thankfully, no one was awake. After filling up half of the barrel, Xiao Lingyu returned to her room.


Xiao Lingyu was tired. She thought about the things she needed to buy and eventually fell asleep.


Early the next morning, Mother Xiao woke up to make breakfast for her family. She noticed the water level in the barrel had increased. “This strange. There was less than half a barrel yesterday night. What happened?” Mother Xiao was puzzled. “Did Ye ‘Er fill up the barrel yesterday night?”


There was a well in the Xiao Family front yard. The well had to be manually pumped. Whenever the water containers around the house were empty, someone would refill them with the well water.


Mother Xiao assumed it was her son or husband who helped her so she didn’t think much of it. She started to boil the water to make porridge. The fragrance of the porridge traveled for miles. It lured everyone out of their rooms.


Xiao Lingye got up from the bed and asked curiously, “What smells so heavenly?” He put on his clothes and left without even brushing his teeth. He followed the trail to the kitchen.


He ran into the kitchen and asked, “Mom, what are you cooking? It smells so good.” As Xiao Lingye said that, the other two also arrived.


Father Xiao glanced into the kitchen and asked curiously, “Dear, what are you cooking? It smells amazing.”


Mother Xiao was confused. Then she answered with a smile, “You two must be overly hungry! I merely cooked some normal porridge. I’ll fry some egg pancakes to go with it.”


The father and son exclaimed, “Just normal porridge?” Normal porridge could smell so heavenly?


“Stop standing there. Go and brush your teeth. I’ll fry the egg pancakes, and breakfast will be served soon!” Mother Xiao chased them out of the kitchen.
