Chapter 671: Chapter 274: The Unyielding Zhuang Shuyuan
Granny Li’s awakening soon spread throughout the plantation.
Immediately, many people came to congratulate Granny Li, and even more were envious.
Zhuang Shuyuan heard the news relatively late.
Because she and Gao Jie and Bai Zhirui were selling things at the mining area, they only heard the news when they returned to the plantation.
At once, she was somewhat stunned.
"Granny Li? She actually awakened her superpower?"
Beside her, Bai Zhirui was also surprised, saying: "Granny Li is so old, and she managed to awaken her superpower? That’s incredible."
Gao Jie said: "Li Yuejin is also quite old, but he awakened his superpower too. What’s the big deal?"
Zhuang Shuyuan slightly shook her head: "I know Li Yuejin. When he awakened his superpower back then, it wasn’t on his own. He ate a mutated fruit to awaken it."
She got up and said: "I’ll go see Granny Li. When I was at the plantation, she took good care of me. Granny Li is a good person."
Bai Zhirui said: "I’ll go take a look too. I wonder what kind of ability Granny Li has awakened."
Gao Jie said: "I’ll go too."
Bai Zhirui was surprised: "Why are you going? You’re not familiar with Granny Li, right?"
Gao Jie chuckled: "Precisely why I should go, get familiar. Granny Li is part of the management at the plantation, it’s an important connection."
Zhuang Shuyuan laughed: "Alright, let’s go together and take a look."
Granny Li had good relations at the shelter, and she was genuinely warm-hearted, kind to everyone.
Though Bai Zhirui often stayed close to Yang Shenmin, she was also quite familiar with Granny Li.
Yang Shenmin often sent Bai Zhirui to the plantation to deliver herbs, some of which had high medicinal value and needed to be cultivated at the plantation.
Over time, Bai Zhirui became familiar with the people at the plantation.
Zhuang Shuyuan worked at the plantation before, which brought the two closer during that time.
Otherwise, when Li Yuejin brought a group of superpower users from Martial King Pavilion and had a falling out with Zhuang Shuyuan, Bai Zhirui might not have stood by Zhuang Shuyuan.
The three of them hurried to the plantation together.
They saw people gradually leaving from Granny Li’s door.
They were quite late.
Old Ma was at the door seeing off guests, while Liang Yuan stayed at the plantation, discussing some details about the Sunshine District with Song Wen.
When Zhuang Shuyuan arrived, she first went inside to chat with Granny Li, congratulating her on successfully awakening her superpower and then prying into what ability Granny Li had.
Upon hearing that Granny Li’s superpower was amplifying other people’s powers, she was surprised and her smile brightened.
Beside her, Bai Zhirui and Gao Jie were also amazed. Amplifying other people’s powers really matched Granny Li’s kind, helpful nature.
They chatted for a while, then more people came in to congratulate Granny Li. Zhuang Shuyuan had to make way, greeted Ma Guocai, and prepared to leave.
Suddenly, she glanced over and saw Liang Yuan in the plantation, her eyes lit up.
She thought for a bit, then whispered something to Gao Jie and Bai Zhirui.
Bai Zhirui and Gao Jie nodded slightly and immediately ran towards Liang Yuan.
The two approached Liang Yuan and Song Wen. Bai Zhirui said: "Miss Song, we found a very strange plant that looks like soybeans, but we aren’t sure. We’d like you to take a look."
When Song Wen heard this, she immediately stood up: "Soybeans? Quick, let me see."
Liang Yuan was also surprised. Soybeans were extremely valuable among plants.
Young soybeans are edamame and can be eaten as vegetables.
Mature soybeans can be pressed for oil, and the residual soybean cake can be used as fertilizer.
Putting soybeans in water sprouts into bean sprouts, another vegetable delicacy.
Mature soybeans can be ground into soy milk, and adding brine turns it into tofu.
Pressed thicker, tofu becomes firm tofu, with the surface forming tofu skin, which becomes thousand-layered bean curd sheets.
Soybeans can also be mashed to make soy sauce and bean paste, among other things.
In summary, soybeans are the undisputed king of vegetables.
So, Song Wen was very excited.
Bai Zhirui said: "We didn’t dare dig it up, in case we damaged the roots, so we came to inform you."
Song Wen immediately said: "You did the right thing. Quickly, take me there."
Liang Yuan said: "I’ll go with you."
Gao Jie hurriedly said: "It’s not far, it’s nearby."
Song Wen said: "Brother Liang, you stay here. I’ll go take a look."
The two ladies quickly left the plantation with Song Wen.
Liang Yuan frowned slightly, feeling something was not quite right.
He was pondering when suddenly a scent wafted from behind.
"Hey, Mr. Liang, why are you here?"
He turned and saw Zhuang Shuyuan slowly approaching.
She was wearing a white sweatshirt and tight jeans, wrapping her shapely legs.
Even though she wasn’t purposely flaunting her figure, her every move carried a regal elegance.
Her poise was natural, not something one could cultivate later.
And her features were also remarkably dignified, exuding a sense of tranquility and beauty.
Liang Yuan looked at her calmly: "Oh, Miss Zhuang."
He nodded slightly and was about to leave.
Zhuang Shuyuan furrowed her brows. This darn man didn’t even have the slightest intention of conversing with her.
She had met countless men, all of whom couldn’t take their eyes off her.
Though she wasn’t dressed up today, she believed her charm, even in casual clothes, could attract those men.
