Chapter 160: Hui And Ran Ran Exercising At Home
Because Hui had already proposed a solution, the toilet was eventually officially opened and used.
Su Ran thought that if it really didn’t work out by then, she would only use the toilet in winter, and in summer, she would stick to the original method.
But in spring, she needed to plant things in the vegetable garden, and she still wanted to use this organic fertilizer as fertilizer for the vegetables she planted.
By then, that smell would probably not just affect Hui; likely, all the other beastmen in the vicinity would come out to protest!
After the toilet was built, Su Ran didn’t idle around.
At noon this day, she dressed herself and Hui thickly, then carried a backpack on her back, had Hui take her, and flew to a slightly deeper place inside the forest.
When setting off, she also brought her own bow and arrow, thinking that if she encountered a lost little lamb in the forest, she could hunt one back to eat fresh.
Frozen meat eaten for a long time really tasted different from freshly slaughtered meat.
Inside the winter forest, it was clear and cold, and the ground still had thick snow that hadn’t melted.
Su Ran hugged Hui’s neck, trying hard to look down into the woods under her feet, and when she felt they had flown to a suitable spot, she had Hui take her down.
Only after landing did she realize that the snow under her feet seemed somewhat frozen; stepping down with one foot, it was already hard to crush.
Su Ran pulled Hui and walked around the landing spot, then her gaze fell on a tree nearby that appeared to have the thickest trunk.
She walked over, put the backpack from her body on the ground, used the bone shovel she brought to clear away a patch of snow under her feet, revealing the damp, blackened, decaying fallen leaves underneath, then shoveled down with one scoop!
Although the soil under the leaves looked very damp, it was actually still somewhat frozen.
Even though Su Ran now had much more strength than when she first arrived in this world, this one scoop still didn’t manage to dig up much soil.
Hui watched her actions from the side and quickly understood that Su Ran wanted the soil on the ground.
Its eyes showed doubt, but it still reached out, wanting to take the bone shovel from Su Ran’s hand, but Su Ran dodged away.
“No need, I want to exercise.”
Su Ran dodged Hui’s reaching hand and persistently continued to forcefully stab the bone shovel into the soil.
Hui’s outstretched hand paused, then slowly withdrew, the confusion on its face growing heavier: “What is exercise?”
“Uh…”
Su Ran was suddenly stumped; how to explain this?
She stopped her actions, thought for a moment, then slowly explained to Hui: “Me shoveling soil like this counts as exercise, and running, jumping, swimming, those are also exercise.”
“But isn’t Ran Ran working right now? Is working exercise?”
Hui was even more confused.
The two eyebrows above its eyes were twisting together; its gaze looked at Su Ran, its green eyes blinked, making Su Ran couldn’t help but start scratching her head:
“Some kinds of work count as a form of exercise.”
Su Ran puffed her cheeks, feeling that the more the child understood, the harder it was to teach.
“Hui can understand it as: as long as we’re moving, being active, that counts as exercise. Exercising occasionally is good for the body~”
“Woo~” The werewolf’s light green eyes turned, its gaze seeming to brighten a bit.
It looked at Su Ran, its ears on top of its head moved, as if it thought of something, and in a tone of pure curiosity asked Su Ran:
“Then at night, when Hui and Ran Ran exercise at home, it’s good for the body, woo…”
As it finished speaking, it didn’t notice Su Ran’s body stiffening for an instant, and suddenly reached out to grasp Su Ran’s wrist again: “Woo? Ran Ran and Hui, exercise together!”
At this moment, Su Ran looking at its sparkling, excited eyes, only felt her legs already starting to go weak.
She couldn’t help screaming silently in her heart: I refuse!!!
Why did she have to bring up this word and lift a rock to smash her own foot!
Su Ran had a bitter face, looking at Hui who was happily wagging its tail, that handsome face with distinct features full of pure and innocent smile at this moment.
But at this time, Su Ran, who had never doubted Hui, couldn’t help starting to suspect in her heart that this wolf was actually a wolf in sheep’s clothing?
A big-bellied black one disguised as a pure little white flower!
Su Ran ignored this wolf with active thoughts and continued to pack the black soil into the backpack.
From this black soil, it was clear that this world, at least in this forest, had very fertile soil, extremely suitable for planting crops.
Su Ran was focused on shoveling soil, unaware of when Hui had habitually squatted beside her again.
It watched Su Ran’s back-and-forth shoveling actions, and finally couldn’t hold back and asked the initial question: “Ran Ran, why shovel soil?”
This time Su Ran immediately answered: “Take this soil back, and plant some vegetables at home for winter eating.”
“Now?”
Hearing Su Ran’s words, Hui surprisedly widened its eyes.
It stared unblinkingly at Su Ran, seeing that the expression on Su Ran’s face wasn’t joking with it; its squatting body leaned forward a bit, hands supporting the ground, head slightly tilted, then it looked up at Su Ran: “But Ran Ran, they won’t grow, it’s winter now, woo~.”
It hesitated for a second, its tone seeming like it wanted to remind Su Ran.
Su Ran looked at its careful appearance wanting to remind her but afraid of hurting her pride, her eyes showing amusement: “But I have a way to make them grow~”
“Woo?”
Hui widened its eyes, squatting there blankly looking at Su Ran, as if discerning the truth in Su Ran’s words.
“How will they grow?”
“You’ll know when the time comes!”
Su Ran deliberately didn’t say, looking at the puzzled expression on Hui’s pretty face, in a great mood as she stopped her actions.
Hmph! Who let it scare her with that earlier, it deserved to itch with curiosity for a while!
Thinking of this, Su Ran handed the shovel in her hand to Hui: “Hui, you do it, dig half a backpack more, then we’ll go back.”
“Okay, woo~”
Hui had been squatting there pondering Su Ran’s method, but hearing her words, it didn’t hesitate, took the bone shovel from Su Ran’s hand, stood up, and started digging soil.
Actually, Su Ran wanted to make two flower pots to plant some things inside the room.
Today she and Hui went out, so the stove at home was extinguished.
But usually, as long as she and Hui didn’t leave the river beach area, the stove at home, except when sleeping at night, was always lit.
And in the entire bedroom, besides on top of the heated brick bed, the area near the stove was the warmest.
So Su Ran wanted to use flower pots to try scattering some seeds of housheng vegetable, wild cabbage, chili fruit, finger onion, and such plants.
Then place the flower pots near the warm stove to see if she could grow these green vegetables inside the room with slightly higher temperature.
She had collected plenty of these seeds before winter. There was already enough for her to plant a larger area in spring.
Happy Lantern Festival everyone~
