A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 220 You Are Right

John also heard the conversation between Abigail and Leon, but he did not express any opinion on the topic. He continued to quietly separate the pig and cow in his hands.

Leon didn't ask any more questions. After all, he and John were not familiar with each other, and whether the other party was an explorer or not was not of much concern to him.

In terms of strength, Leon is not sure whether John is strong, but as a butcher, John is definitely competent.

It only took him five minutes to cut half a pig and half a cow into standard-sized pieces of meat and bones, and he also put the meat into the bag.

"Do you want some bones?" After John finished loading the meat, he looked at the remaining pork and beef bones on the table and asked Leon.

"No more."

Lyon liked the ribs very much, but John's bone removal technique was very good, so there was basically no meat or minced meat left on the bones. The clean bones made Lyon have no desire to take them back.

John nodded when he heard this, then took out a hundred-dollar bill from the money Leon had just paid and handed it to Leon.

"You can't count that bone against your money."

"Um, okay." Leon was stunned for a moment, but still took the money.

"Try to eat it as soon as possible. If it's left out for too long, even if it's refrigerated, the flavor will be greatly reduced. I'm open almost every day, so next time you want to eat meat, you can come and buy fresh meat."

John handed two large bags of meat to Leon and reminded him again.

"Okay." Leon nodded to show that he understood, and at the same time put the two large bags of meat into his backpack, and even did not let go of the chicken in Abigail's hand.

Abigail's eyes lit up at this scene, but John said expressionlessly, "Looks like I don't need to deliver the goods to your door. Take care, and we welcome you back next time."

"Goodbye, John."

After waving goodbye to John, Leon and Abigail left the butcher shop together.

As soon as they left the house, Abigail couldn't wait to ask, "When did you learn this? Is it magic? Or some special tool?"

"The ability granted by the Star Fruit." Leon said nonsense.

"Star Fruit? You have actually eaten Star Fruit? When?" Abigail became even more excited after hearing this.

"Some time ago." Lyon replied.

"I heard that the Star Fruit is the most delicious food in the world. Can you describe how good it tastes?" Abigail asked.

"Actually, the Star Fruit itself has no taste, but when you eat it, it will evoke the most profound and beautiful memories you have ever tasted, so I can't tell you its specific taste." Leon explained.

"I see."

Abigail nodded. "Looks like I've added another goal to my life's bucket list."

"Oh, what was on your original wish list?" Lyon asked curiously.

"I won't tell you. By the way, you haven't finished telling the story of your adventure this time." Abigail rolled her eyes at Leon, and then brought up the condition she had previously given to lead the way for Leon.

"I'm hungry and need to go back to cook. Should I go downstairs?" Already knowing the location of Butcher John's shop, Leon planned to slip away because telling stories to Abigail was too troublesome. This girl was very curious and would not sit still when Leon was telling stories. Instead, she would immerse herself in the stories and ask some unnecessary details.

"It's okay, I'll go with you. I haven't been to your farm for a long time, and I'll go and see how your farm is doing now." Abigail patted Leon's shoulder and decided.

"Can I refuse?" Leon looked at Abigail speechlessly.

"No, or I will tell my father that you molested me before." Abigail threatened Leon righteously.

"I told you it was a misunderstanding." Leon sighed and said, "Forget it, come if you want."

Leon got on his bicycle and said, “But my bike doesn’t have a back seat, so you might have to run here yourself. Come on.”

As soon as Leon stepped onto the pedals and held the handlebars, Abigail jumped directly into Leon's arms. Of course, she didn't do it to take advantage of Leon, but to sit on the horizontal bar of the bicycle.

"Be my driver, let's go!"

Abigail, full of energy, didn't care that her current posture was too close to Leon, but instead happily gave orders to Leon.

Passively sniffing the unique scent of Abigail coming from the tip of his nose, Leon couldn't help but complain: "Although I treat you as a brother, you are a girl after all. If someone sees you doing this, do you want to lose your innocence?"

"So I'll instruct you to take the side road. That way, we can get to your farm faster while avoiding being seen." Abigail replied, "For example, we can take this side road right now, bypassing Pelican Town Square and my house, and then go straight to the bus stop."

"Why go through so much trouble? Wouldn't it be better to take the flat road?" Leon continued to complain, because the path Abigail directed was completely trampled out by humans, which meant that he and Abigail's buttocks would suffer a lot along the way.

"Who told you your bike doesn't have a back seat?" Abigail complained to Leon, "Stop talking nonsense and get going. Didn't you say you were hungry?"

"Forget it, as long as you're happy. I hope your butt is still intact when we get to the farm." Since Abigail was determined to get a ride, Leon just let her go.

Anyway, his seat cushion is soft, which can offset some of the bumps and jolts, but the horizontal bar under Abigail's butt is a solid iron lump. Abigail is the one who suffers, so just take it as a lesson for this reckless guy.

So under Abigail's command, Leon rode his bike and took Abigail through the various trails in Pelican Town. The bumpy ride made Abigail feel unwell.

In order to prevent herself from being thrown off the bike, Abigail turned around and hugged Leon's waist, almost causing the unprepared Leon to ride the bike into the bushes.

"Do you have a stick with you?" Abigail suddenly asked after riding in this position for a while.

"Cough cough cough, I brought it. Be careful not to get bumped." Lyon almost couldn't breathe when he heard that. He was so scared that he coughed dryly several times before he recovered.

"It seems that you are already an excellent warrior. You even carry weapons with you. But why don't you put them into your storage ability?" Abigail asked curiously.

"Because I have to be ready to fight at any time." Leon said perfunctorily, and at the same time reminded Abigail: "You can actually hold on to the handlebars, so you won't touch that, uh, stick."

"No, that would interfere with your riding." Abigail shook her head and muttered softly, "I didn't see anything anyway. You treat me like a brother, why do you care about this? It's just a hug. I'm not afraid, so why should you be afraid?"

"Hey, you're right." Leon sighed helplessly, then moved his buttocks further back to the seat cushion, while lowering the center of gravity of his upper body.

But Lyon's avoidance attitude made Abigail's face even redder.

Because Leon lowered his upper body, his chest and shoulders were basically pressed against his hair, and the two of them were closer at this moment.
