Everyone Wants to Pamper the Lucky Daughter - Chapter 709

Chapter 709: Chapter 707: Harvest Year, Cutting Rice in the Field_1

“I’m not afraid. We Lin Clan youngsters can stand tall and true. We’re not afraid of getting hurt in battle, let alone being scared of a worm,”

Lin Jinhao said nonchalantly, patting his chest with a thumping sound.

“I’m not afraid either.”

Lin Jinlei stood straight with a serious expression on his little face.

“Alright, roll up your pant legs and follow your sister to the rice field.”

Lin Qingluo’s eyes shimmered with amusement as she looked at her two proud younger brothers, her eyebrows arching with laughter.

*

Neither of the brothers had ever worked in a rice field before, but they followed their sister’s example, grabbing a handful of rice stalks and cutting them with a sickle. They worked diligently, cutting one stalk at a time.

However, after a short while, their enthusiasm waned, and they began to feel sore and slow down.

An hour later, Lin Jinhao cried out in pain, his feet seemingly equipped with springs as he leaped up from the muddy water, still holding onto a bunch of rice stalks.

“A bug has bitten my leg too.”

Lin Jinlei’s little face also turned bitter as he tried to bear the nauseating feeling, looking at the bug that had bitten into his skin.

“Stop cutting and go apply some Spiritual Medicine.”

Lin Qingluo knew what was going on and, grabbing both her younger brothers, leaped to the edge of the rice field in a single bound.

“How disgusting! What kind of bug is it?”

Lin Jinhao threw the rice stalks away and sat on the ground, slapping his legs with his hands.

“Leeches.”

Lin Qingluo took out Spiritual Medicine and gave it to both her brothers.

“How come Brother Meng and the others aren’t afraid of the bugs in the rice field?”

Lin Jinlei took the Spiritual Medicine, his proud heart slightly wounded and his eyes dimmed.

“They’ve gotten used to being bitten.”

Lin Qingluo teased with a smile, adding deliberately, “They don’t have psychological barriers anymore.”

“Can you really get used to that?”

Lin Jinhao’s hand applying the Spiritual Medicine paused, his ears turning a bit red.

“Don’t pull the leeches off with your hands. Just apply the salve, and they’ll fall off on their own after a while.”

Lin Qingluo gently reminded them, as she wiped the mud from her legs with a silk handkerchief, lowered her pant leg, and sat down with her two brothers beside the rice field.

“Haha, this is a good harvest year! The yield from one acre is a thousand pounds.”

“I’ve been farming my whole life, and I’ve never seen rice stalks so full.”

“No wonder it’s called Spirit Rice. The word ‘spirit’ is worth a fortune. It’s a world of difference compared to the seeds we used to plant.”

“Bless the heavens! We’ve finally had the chance to see Spirit Rice.”

As the sky grew darker, the voices from the threshing ground nearby became more boisterous and lively.

The villagers were full of energy, working into the night under the light of lanterns. There were more than a hundred lanterns hanging around the threshing ground, illuminating the vast area.

Amid the noisy laughter carried by the wind, Lin Qingluo smiled and took a bamboo flute out of her Storage Ring. She gently held the flute with both hands and played a melody.

The flute music was light and pleasant.

It was as if they were children in the countryside, playing happily in the fields. Their innocent laughter was so infectious that it made everyone feel happy.

“Is that Qingluo playing the flute?”

Three figures approached in the distance, quickly running towards them along the field ridge.

“Big Brother, Fifth Brother, Seventh Brother!”

Lin Jinhao and Lin Jinlei were overjoyed to hear familiar voices and jumped to their feet.

“Jinhao, Jinlei, you two are here too?”

Lin Jinyu, with the fastest speed, had reached his younger siblings in an instant.

“Haha, our two little brothers are here! Great, great, now I have company.”

Lin Jinpeng arrived next, delighted to see his two younger brothers.

He finally felt like the eldest brother.

“You two have done well. You’ve grown up and become reliable helpers for us brothers.”

Lin Jinlong approached, lavishing words of praise without hesitation.
