Agriculture Escape: Ultimate Boss Has A Space Pocket!

139 I Really Don’t Understand

It had been a few years since Bai Wutong had eaten popcorn. The sweet popcorn seemed to have allowed her to return to the modern world. She was in a daze for a moment. She looked at Chu Tianbao and Stinky who had already finished the popcorn and were waiting for Bai Wutong.

Bai Wutong came back to her senses and her smile deepened. She poured the popcorn into the bowl and said to Chu Tianbao, “I still have to make two more pots. Carry Stinky into the house and eat inside.”

It would be dark soon and the temperature would drop. She had to prevent Stinky from catching a cold.

Chu Tianbao hugged Stinky with one hand and picked up the bowl with the other. He happily entered the house.

!!

As Qingfeng carried the fish, Cui Lingyi and her brother also arrived.

They smelled something sweet before they even stepped into the yard.

Cui Muzhi said happily, “Madam Bai is cooking something nice again.”

Cui Lingyi laughed. “No drinking tonight, glutton.”

Last time, he had tormented Lan Jingbai until midnight and even vomited all over him.

Cui Muzhi quietly ran into the courtyard.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Xiaobai circling the charcoal fire and picking up popcorn from the pot to eat.

Bai Wutong turned around when she heard footsteps. “You’re here.”

“Pop pop pop—”

There was another long string of dense exploding sounds. Cui Muzhi said excitedly, “Madam Bai, what’s in the pot? Why is it so fragrant? It actually explodes!”

Bai Wutong smiled and said, “It’s popcorn. It is made from corn. We can have it as a snack while we play with cards tonight, but it tastes best when it’s hot.”

With that, she lifted the lid of the pot again and poured a full pot of popcorn into another bowl.

The rich aroma hit him in the face. Cui Muzhi sucked in the air. Cui Lingyi was stunned for a moment, but she moved quickly. She quickly washed her hands, grabbed a piece of popcorn, and put it in her mouth.

It was sweet and soft, making it impossible to guess that this was food for the poor.

She looked at Bai Wutong in shock. “This is too delicious!” She liked this snack so much.

Bai Wutong smiled and said, “Yes, eat less now and get ready. We still have to eat hotpot.”

Even though Bai Wutong had said so, Cui Lingyi still couldn’t help but stand in front of the bowl and eat one popcorn after another.

Everyone who tasted the popcorn had unanimous praise for it.

As Little Stinky ate, he even stuffed it into his pocket, afraid that everyone would not give it to him later.

Sheng Huaixuan saw that his son’s pockets were full but he kept stuffing them in. Some popcorn even fell out.

He held out his hand to Stinky. “Can you give Daddy one?”

Stinky saw that he didn’t have a single popcorn in his hand and felt sorry for him. He glanced at his small pocket, raised his hand, and generously handed him one. His chubby face, however, looked pained. He looked extremely adorable.

Sheng Huaixuan held it in his arms like it was a treasure and stroked his little head. “Thank you, Stinky baby.”

Lin Yue also stood up pitifully and tried. “Young Master, can you give me one?”

Stinky glanced at him, rolled his dark eyes, and pretended not to see as he started eating.

Lin Yue was ignored by him and everyone was amused.

Bai Wutong began to prepare the ingredients for the hotpot.

The hotpot base was ready-made. There was hot pot and clear soup pot.

With everyone’s help, the ingredients were ready in a short while.

It was quite sumptuous. There were fish balls, meatballs, pork slices, mutton slices, shredded potatoes, broad noodles, cabbage, lettuce, potato slices, sweet potato slices…

There were also two types of dipping sauce, sesame sauce and oil with garnishes.

Bai Wutong had prepared everything for them so that they could try anything.

Cui Lingyi had never eaten oil with garnishes before. Her piece of pork belly was wrapped in a spicy and crispy dipping sauce. The meat was delicious, and the heavy taste of the seasoning exploded in her mouth, forming a strong texture that stunned her.

She really felt a different surprise every time she came to Bai Wutong’s house.

She exclaimed, “It’s too late for me to know about the oil with garnishes!”

Lin Yue also liked oil with garnishes very much and strongly agreed. “Me too!” Seeing the sesame sauce in Qingfeng’s hand, he even said, “Try the oil with garnishes. It’s especially refreshing.” He subconsciously picked up a piece of meat and placed it in Qingfeng’s bowl, urging her with his eyes.

When everyone saw the piece of meat in Qingfeng’s bowl, they smiled in unison. Only Chu Tianbao was engrossed in eating and piling up Bai Wutong’s bowl as high as a mountain.

Qingfeng stared at the piece of meat in the oil with garnishes and calmly picked it up and placed it in her mouth.

Lin Yue grinned like a fool and asked, “Is it delicious?”

Qingfeng nodded.

Just as Lin Yue was about to pick up some meat for her, he suddenly saw everyone’s smiling expressions from the corner of his eye. He suddenly realized something and paused. He braced himself and said awkwardly, “Eat meat, eat meat.”

The smiles in everyone’s eyes deepened. They looked into the pot and were immediately dumbfounded.

All the ingredients that had just been placed were swept away by Chu Tianbao. It was so clean that it was as if they were imagining themselves to be eating meat just now.

Bai Wutong lowered her gaze and saw the pointy food mountain in her bowl. She chuckled. “You have to focus when you eat.”

Everyone nodded rigidly in agreement. “You have to focus when you eat.” Otherwise, they have nothing to eat if they were not focused.

After eating the hotpot, it was time for playing cards.

Stinky was tired. Sheng Huaixuan brought him back to rest first, and Lin Yue followed.

Hence, Bai Wutong, Cui Lingyu, and Cui Muzhi were left at the table. Chu Tianbao sat at the side with popcorn and watched obediently.

Bai Wutong’s luck was not good that day. She lost a few rounds the moment she came up, but the chips in front of Cui Lingyi were already piled up.

Cui Muzhi kept losing until he was about to explode in anger. If he continued to lose, his allowance for the month would be gone.

...

He muttered, “Let me win one round, let me win one round…”

As a result, he lost the round again.

Chu Tianbao watched for a while and also wanted to play. Seeing that he was very interested, Bai Wutong specially explained to him how to play the card game.

Chu Tianbao said impatiently, “Tianbao knows already.”

Bai Wutong smiled and exchanged seats with him. She held the popcorn and watched as Chu Tianbao became so focused that he looked like a different person.

It was clearly just a leisure activity, but everyone felt a trace of pressure from Chu Tianbao’s serious and pressing face. They became much more nervous looking at the cards.

Chu Tianbao kept asking for cards, making the other three parties wonder if he really knew how to play.

Suddenly, Chu Tianbao spread out his cards and shouted excitedly. Everyone looked over in disbelief.

He had actually formed a matching set!

Chu Tianbao won that round. He said excitedly to Bai Wutong, “Wife, I won. I won a lot of money.”

Bai Wutong knew that he would win from watching just now. She smiled. “Tianbao is so awesome!”

...

After being praised, Chu Tianbao continued to work hard. Cui Lingyi, who was very lucky, was also suppressed by him. After playing more than ten rounds in a row, Chu Tianbao won every time.

Before long, the table in front of him was full of chips.

It was a small pile that Bai Wutong could only help him store in a small wooden box.

Chu Tianbao was talented at playing cards. If he went to the casino, the people in the casino would probably kneel on the ground and beg him to leave quickly.

Cui Muzhi had lost all his pocket money, but he had not won a single match. He was so depressed that he wanted to borrow some money from Cui Lingyi to play a few more rounds.

Cui Lingyi grabbed his ear and scolded, “Enough is enough! It’s time to go home!”

Poor Cui Muzhi was desperate. His pocket money!

He would never gamble again!

Chu Tianbao still wanted to play, but Bai Wutong stopped him. “Alright, it’s time to sleep!”

Chu Tianbao said enthusiastically to Cui Muzhi, “We’ll continue next time!”

Cui Muzhi’s face fell. There would be no next time. Chu Tianbao was simply possessed by the God of Gamblers. Who would dare to play with him?
