A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 392 Carrot

After a brief moment of tenderness, Abigail keenly sensed something was wrong, because she found that little Leon seemed to have some special ideas.

This made Abigail blush. Compared to her previous ignorance and being fooled, Abigail now knew what this little thing was.

Shyness and panic made Abigail subconsciously break away from Leon's arms, sit aside with her head down, not daring to look at Leon.

Leon was stunned for a moment, then reacted, smiled awkwardly, and then adjusted his sitting position as if nothing had happened. He also straightened his clothes that were wrinkled by Abigail leaning on them, looking calm and composed.

Such a calm performance made Abigail speechless. She raised her head and looked at Leon and complained: “Don’t you want to say something?”

"Ahem, it's getting late, you should go back."

The sudden accident made Leon realize that now was not the time to continue the lovey-dovey relationship. If he continued like this, regardless of whether Abigail could accept it, Leon was also worried about an accidental discharge of the gun, and then being discovered by Rasmodesmos before he could score the goal, and then being executed.

So the best outcome would be to stop here. Abigail would go back, and he would take another cold shower and pretend nothing had happened.

Abigail opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but when she thought about what might happen after she said it, she was too embarrassed to speak. After hesitating for a long time, she slowly stood up and prepared to leave.

Leon also stood up and prepared to send Abigail back, but was stopped by Abigail.

"You must be tired from what you went through during the day. You should go to bed early. Pelican Town is very safe. Besides, I'm not an ordinary girl, so you don't have to worry about me walking at night."

"I just want to walk with you," Leon explained.

"No need, I understand you. There's still a lot of time to go anyway, so go to bed early." Abigail said, then she stood on tiptoe, kissed Leon lightly on the cheek, and then quickly took two steps back.

"This is my goodnight kiss to you, do you like it?"

"It would be even better if you kissed the mouth," Leon reminded Abigail with a wicked smile.

"No, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave." Abigail replied, shaking her head. After saying this, Abigail turned around and left lightly.

Looking at Abigail's receding back, Leon suddenly remembered that he had not yet told Abigail the news that she could go to learn magic, but Abigail had already run far away, and there was no point in catching up with her to tell her about this matter.

Anyway, he had to wait until Abigail came back from Zuzu City before he could take her to the Mage Tower to become a disciple. So Leon simply didn't dwell on this issue. It didn't matter when he talked about it, and this time wouldn't make a difference.

After Abigail's back was completely covered by the night, Leon turned back into the house, washed his face with cold water to calm down, and after he felt calmed down, he turned on the TV, watched the TV for a while, and then turned off the TV and went to bed.

After a long sleep, Leon woke up and rubbed his head. Although he had gone to bed early last night, he hadn't dreamed in a long time. He had almost forgotten the memory of the dream, but the vague remaining images made Leon certain that the protagonists of the dream should be Abigail and Emily Haley. As for what happened in the dream, Leon couldn't say, but he had a feeling that it was quite exciting and dangerous.

I don’t know if it’s because I thought about it during the day and dreamed about it at night, or if my subconscious was warning me, but Leon felt that he didn’t sleep well.

However, since he was awake, Leon didn't plan to take a nap. His habit made him wash up as soon as he got up, then he left the cabin and looked at the fields.

The emerald green fluorescence representing the maturity of the crops was so conspicuous in Lyon's eyes. The area covered by these green fluorescence was basically filled with the fennel that had been planted to fill the gaps and the carrots that had been won in the last lottery.

How could he bear it here? He rolled up his sleeves and went into the fields. He found the edge of the field where the carrots were and started pulling them out by grabbing their stems and leaves that were sticking out of the soil.

Pulling out radishes is a technical job that requires skillful use of force. This way, the radishes won’t break due to excessive force, nor will it create the embarrassing situation where the stems and leaves are broken but the radishes are not pulled out.

What surprised Lyon was that the process of pulling out the carrots was surprisingly easy. With just a little effort, the carrots easily broke free from the soil, revealing their thick and slender bodies.

“Carrot (vegetable): A fast-growing, brightly colored tuber that can be eaten as a snack.”

As the carrot was unearthed, the system's annotations followed closely. The usual concise introduction made Leon lose interest after just one glance.

I turned my attention to the carrot that still had a little bit of mud on it. I estimated its length and found it to be about 30 centimeters and 3 centimeters in diameter. It was a good size, and its color was as bright as described. It looked very fresh.

It was just a carrot. Leon wasn't sure if all the carrots in Stardew Valley were of this size, so he continued to bend down and pull out the rest of the carrots. He finally concluded that the 30-centimeter-long carrots were just ordinary stuff, and high-quality carrots could reach half a meter in length.

Ordinary carrots are orange in color, while high-quality carrots with amazing length are red, which is a slightly darker red. From the color, you can easily tell the difference between the two.

40 seeds yielded a total of 18 carrots, and of the harvested carrots had a red appearance and length, which means that nearly half of the carrots were red, high-quality crops.

"Is it because carrots themselves are prone to producing high-quality crops, or is it because these seeds came from Mr. Qi's lottery machine?"

Looking at the exaggerated proportion of high-quality carrots, Lyon held a high-quality carrot and thought.

Unfortunately, the only way to obtain this kind of seeds for the time being is through a lottery machine. Pierre's family does not have the same type of carrot seeds for sale, so there is no way to conduct a control experiment, and Leon cannot think of an accurate answer.

However, it is always gratifying to harvest high-quality crops, so after Lyon selected a high-quality carrot and an ordinary-quality carrot, he threw the remaining 38 carrots into the shipping box.

Lyon planned to eat the two carrots of different quality left behind.
