Besides, who knows, in a few years they might have to demolish this place. After all, their village is just a street away from the city, and only two streets away from the Wanda Plaza in the distance. It’s likely that a developer will take an interest in this land eventually and tear it all down.
So this house has basically been idle, and it’s actually nice to have so people living in it now. At least it’s not as deserted and ghostly as it was before.
"I might have to go out again tomorrow. Aunt, please look after the kids, and don’t let them play the whole ti; make them do so study..." Xue Dili stuck his head out to glance at the two kids in the living room watching TV.
They were watching TV, laughing so hard they were almost falling over, completely engrossed in the drama. But why did the monster on TV have a 3:7 side-part with a mustache?
He took a closer look at the title, "German Killer" - Episode 17...
Xue Dili: "..."
What in the world, is this thing actually a TV drama?
Xue Dili took a quick glance. It was essentially a super bad movie, featuring a monster that looked like an art school dropout getting bullied by various people, while it relentlessly hunted the main cast in turn.
In every episode, this German Killer would be defeated by the main cast through brainpower and courage, but would co back to life and continue to chase them, interspersed with all sorts of Arican-style slapstick cody monts.
He couldn’t appreciate it at all, but seeing the two kids laughing hysterically, Xue Dili could only shrug.
...
During dinner, the other kids also got to know Little Flower Fairy.
Bai Ya and Siam just greeted her, while Fafnir, holding an English vocabulary book, looked at Xue Lingshu as if she’d seen a ghost.
"Sister Fafnir!" Little Flower Fairy greeted warmly.
Fafnir was delighted, hugging Little Flower Fairy and rubbing her chubby cheeks against hers non-stop.
This child seed to especially like small animals and elves. In fact, she had always wanted to keep a cat or a dog, but there were substitutes; the neighbor had a big yellow dog and a ginger cat, so Fafnir often snuck to pet them.
This ti, Little Flower Fairy seed to hit her sweet spot, and the two played happily, forgetting about tomorrow’s test and English vocabulary.
Xue Dili looked at the noisy kids and felt like his house had turned into a kind of Jurassic era.
But he smiled too, watching the kids’ antics.
After dinner, Bai Ya and Siam approached Xue Dili, saying, "Boss, we have to go ho; we can’t play here anymore."
"Oh?" Xue Dili was a bit surprised. Their study abroad period was supposed to be two months, but it had only been a month; why were they leaving?
Then Xue Dili suddenly understood. Their "two months," converted to Earth ti, was just over a month because their ho planet’s orbital and rotational periods were faster than Earth’s, as were their moons’, which made a month on Earth equivalent to a little over two months there.
"Actually, there’s another reason. We don’t want to keep bothering you. We’ve learned a lot here, and I’ve talked to Aunt, we’ll buy so quality crop seeds tomorrow to take back. Then we’ll be able to grow more crops in that world!" Bai Ya said.
She seed to already be envisioning her holand’s fields filled with various crops, with wheat fields growing as tall as a person, creating a scene where everyone could take shade under the wheat stalks.
She held her "Fundantals of Hybrid Crops" and "Comprehensive Guide to Field Cultivation" in her hands as if they were the Bible.
Xue Dili also smiled, patting the kids on the head. When they first arrived, they were all over the place, always going "ye, ya, gwa" with exclamations, but now they seed quite normal.
But it looked like when they returned to their ho planet, they’d probably be all hyper again in a few days.
So Xue Dili encouraged them, "Apply the knowledge you learned here well when you get back. You guys mostly have Dragon Blood Potatoes over there, right?"
Bai Ya and Siam nodded.
They didn’t really want to admit that after a little over a week of eating at ho, they were pretty fed up with potatoes.
It’s normal, eating too much of a single crop can beco quite monotonous and even nauseating. Although Dragon Blood Potatoes have a high yield and decent nutrition, a single food source will definitely lead to nutritional imbalance.
However, their ho planet was just erging from a starvation environnt, so a single crop like potatoes at least ensured that no one starved, and everyone had sothing to eat.
Only by ensuring everyone is well-fed can they think about eating better.
So it wasn’t just out of interest but also because they tasted all sorts of delicacies here that they decided to give up their previous plans to study politics and history. One went to study agriculture, the other animal husbandry.
They wanted to bring the culinary delicacies of this world back ho, so everyone wouldn’t just think about being full but also about eating well. Whether it ant more crops or more at and eggs available, that’s what they wanted.
To ensure the next generation wouldn’t suffer like they did, growing up amidst a variety of delicious foods.
And they felt their world probably needed these things more than having two politically inexperienced kids involved in their planet’s political scene after just over a month of studying politics and history.
