Chapter 955 Treating Mania

"Good morning, residents. This is the resource allocation office of Yanzhong Base. Recently, a batch of potatoes was produced at the agricultural base of Yuan Muxia, a famous grower at our base. These potatoes will be sold by Fuyuan Supermarket. Residents can go there to purchase them by presenting their ID information. Each person is limited to 1 jin (0.5 kg), and each jin costs 10 contribution points."

A map of Fuyuan Supermarket is attached below; residents can choose to shop at the nearest supermarket.

Early in the morning, everyone at the Yanzhong base received this message on their wristbands.

The crowd was skeptical. "Is this fake? These awful-tasting nutritional blocks cost 10 contribution points, and a pound of potatoes costs that much too?"

"Could it be full of toxins?"

"Probably not. Look, it was issued by the base's resource allocation department. The base wouldn't be so heartless as to let us eat vegetables with viruses."

Everyone knows that eating virus-infected vegetables could potentially lead to mutations. If all the base's residents mutated, the base would cease to exist.

"But is there a problem with this price?"

"You're out of touch. The original planter isn't like that at all. She's beautiful, kind-hearted, and incredibly capable. Her planting skills are the best in the Yanzhong base. She partnered with Fuyuan Supermarket a few days ago, and the vegetables they sell are delicious and cheap, but unfortunately, there's a purchase limit."

……

Soon, news about Mu Xia and Potatoes flooded the base's network. Meanwhile, the savvy individuals had already bought Potatoes and taken them home.

"Dad, look what I bought!" Mo Feiyu rushed into the house carrying a big potato and said happily to her father, who was tied to the bed.

In the small room, there was only a bed and a dilapidated cabinet. On the bed, a emaciated man was tied to the bed with rough strips of cloth. The man's cheeks were sunken, his eye sockets were dark, and his lips were dark red. His eyes were bloodshot, and his expression was painful and ferocious, like a man-eating demon.

However, Mo Feiyu was not afraid at all, because this was her dearest father.

"Feiyu, don't come in!" Mo Fengsheng shouted hoarsely, struggling to suppress his rage.

"Dad, don't be afraid, I bought vegetables that can cure bipolar disorder." Mo Feiyu happily held up a large potato. This potato weighed three pounds, and she bought it using her parents' and her own identity information.

A few days ago, she overheard that vegetables could treat bipolar disorder, but the farm didn't sell any vegetables, and her family didn't know any growers. The day before yesterday, she heard that Fuyuan Supermarket had opened and was selling vegetables, so she went to queue up, but she couldn't get any.

So she went to Fuyuan Supermarket early this morning to wait, and successfully managed to grab some potatoes.

Mo Fengsheng was having a manic episode and couldn't hear what his daughter was saying at all.

Seeing this, Mo Feiyu became extremely anxious and quickly grabbed the potatoes and went to the kitchen. She washed the potatoes clean, cut off a small portion, about half a pound, with a knife. She then quickly put the rest of the potatoes into a basket.

She picked up a small pot from the electric stove, filled it with some water, put the potatoes in, and started cooking.

The family occasionally buys some purified alien meat to eat. Sometimes the nutrient blocks are too hard, so Mom will cook them. Therefore, Mo Feiyu has mastered some simple cooking methods.

However, Mo Feiyu had never cooked potatoes before and was quite nervous. Ever since she turned on the electric heater, her eyes had been glued to the small pot.

After a while, fine bubbles began to rise from the water in the small pot, and gradually, large bubbles began to bubble up from the water.

Mo Feiyu took a deep breath, and because she was close to the small pot, she inevitably inhaled the steam carrying the aroma of potatoes.

"Hiss~" Mo Feiyu quickly covered her nose and backed away, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.

But—Mo Feiyu blinked, “It smells so good~” After the burning sensation in her nose subsided, she only felt a cool sensation swirling in her nose.

She couldn't resist leaning closer, taking a careful, deep breath. Her eyes lit up; it felt so good!
Just as Mo Feiyu was sniffing the potatoes with fascination, the aroma of boiled potatoes grew stronger and stronger, wafting out of the kitchen and into Mo Fengsheng's room.

Mo Fengsheng, who was enduring the pain, suddenly twitched his nose. It smelled wonderful!
"Feifei!" he shouted. Mo Feiyu snapped out of her daze and quickly looked at the small pot; the water inside had evaporated. She immediately panicked, "Oh no, the water's gone! What do we do?"

She hurriedly turned off the electric heater, staring at the steaming potatoes, hesitant. She wasn't sure if the potatoes were cooked. What if they weren't?
She thought for a moment, then took out a small spoon and poked at the potato. Hmm, it was very soft. She carefully scooped out a little bit, brought it close to her nose, and smelled it. It smelled so good! She quickly put it in her mouth.

Soft and fluffy, with a hint of sweetness, so delicious!

Mo Feiyu's eyes lit up as she looked at the golden potatoes in the small pot, her mouth watering.

No, this is for Dad!

Mo Feiyu made a tough decision, took a small spoon and a small pot, and went to Mo Fengsheng's room.

"Dad, I chopped some potatoes and cooked them. Come and try some." Mo Feiyu held up a small pot and scooped a small spoonful of potatoes for her dad.

Mo Fengsheng smelled the aroma of potatoes, stretched his neck, opened his mouth wide, and put the small spoonful of potatoes in his mouth. The texture was soft, without any seasoning, but without any earthy taste, and it was very sweet!

This taste, so different from what he remembered, instinctively brought tears to Mo Fengsheng's eyes.

"Dad? Why are you crying?" Mo Feiyu was a little flustered. Was it not tasty? No, it was definitely delicious!
"Gurgle~" His stomach, which had been growling for a long time due to hunger, rumbled. Mo Fengsheng felt a little embarrassed and looked at his daughter, "Feifei, is there any more?"

Mo Feiyu nodded quickly, "And Dad, you eat quickly!" She suppressed her longing and fed Mo Fengsheng spoonful by spoonful.

Half a pound of potatoes was quickly finished, but Mo Fengsheng was still hungry. He looked at Mo Feiyu expectantly, "Feifei, is there any more?"

Mo Feiyu shook her head and quickly said, "I only cooked a little bit. I'll cook the rest when Mom comes back tonight."

These past few days, my father has been having a manic episode, so my mother has been going to work alone. Since she doesn't have any superpowers, she can only do odd jobs at the recycling center, processing alien beasts.

"Okay." Mo Fengsheng suppressed his desire and suddenly realized that he had been so focused on eating that he hadn't thought about his daughter at all. He felt a little guilty. "Feifei, if you're hungry, go and cook some potatoes for yourself."

Although Mo Feiyu was eager to eat them, these potatoes were for her father's medical treatment, and her mother hadn't returned yet. "No need," she said, "we'll eat them when Mom comes back. Dad, how are you feeling now?"

“Is there any effect?”

Mo Fengsheng asked in confusion, "What effect?"

“It’s bipolar disorder.” Mo Feiyu observed her father’s complexion, especially his eyes, and found that his eyes were still red, but he didn’t seem as fierce as before.

“Vegetables can treat bipolar disorder. Dad, are you less angry now?” Mo Feiyu asked.

Mo Fengsheng realized belatedly that he was no longer so agitated, and felt as if he were enveloped by a cool breeze, which was quite comfortable.

He nodded. "Indeed, I feel much better. Feifei, where did you buy these vegetables? Doesn't our base not allow the sale of vegetables to outsiders?"

“It’s ready.” Mo Feiyu quickly told her father what she knew and showed him the information sent by the resource allocation office on her bracelet.

"I bought this potato using my family's information," Mo Feiyu said proudly.

Mo Fengsheng was stunned. He had only been confined at home for a few days, and such a big change had occurred at the base?

“Yuanmu Xia? I remember she’s a space ability user.” Although she has no combat ability, she has a large space, so she is highly valued by the base.

"Yes, but Master Yuan has awakened the wood-type ability!" Mo Feiyu admires Yuan Muxia very much. She hopes that she can also awaken the wood-type ability in the future and grow lots and lots of vegetables.

May her family be free from bipolar disorder forever!
