The Ancient Growth Diary of a Little Zombie

Yun Yi was stunned for a long time with lifeless eyes because of what everyone did. Then he lowered his eyes and looked at his empty hands.

He looked blankly at the villagers around him who had retreated to their original positions.

No, he was looking at the corns in their hands, one in each of them.

That little look was one of surprise, confusion, and envy.

And those villagers who noticed his gaze were truly wicked.

Not only did they not feel pity for the child's confused look, but they also took bites of the corn cob in their hands with the child's pitiful eyes.

When the teeth collide with the thin-skinned and juicy fresh corn kernels, a series of slight crisp sounds instantly burst out in the quiet air.

Oh~ It seems that there is also Yun Yi’s heartbroken voice mixed in it.

It's really pitiful for the child.

But this time the ancestor really didn't lie to him.

The reason why this corn has never been taken out is that although the corn seeds were planted together with sweet potatoes and potatoes last year, compared with the impressive yields of potatoes and sweet potatoes, the yield of this corn is really sad.

And I don’t know if it’s because the corn is particularly sweet and grows outside, not only are there many pests, but the birds and small animals in the forest also like to steal it.

This has made the already low production volume even worse.

If it weren't for the earnest words of Old Sang's family, it must be that they didn't find the key to taking care of the seedlings, which led to the serious discrepancy between the estimated yield and the actual yield.

After tasting it, everyone felt that this crop called corn was really delicious, and both adults and children were very happy.

Otherwise, after the first harvest of corn berries that look like a joke, you probably won’t want to plant it a second time.

This time, Yun Yi's arrival was also a coincidence, as it happened to coincide with the second corn harvest.

This time, thanks to the villagers' more careful care, the yield is indeed much better than the first time.

But after all, each family has limited land. Compared with the stable and high-yield potatoes and sweet potatoes, there are very few fields that villagers are willing to set aside for growing corn.

If he knew the true situation of the little girl's family in the capital, he would have wanted to keep them tethered so that they wouldn't act rashly.

Otherwise, the ancestor would definitely not take out the corn and show it to Yun so easily.

What he wanted was nothing more than to have him taste it and then secretly report it back to the group of high-sounding nobles in the capital, so as to achieve the goal of stabilizing them.

Just when Yun Yi was so greedy that tears were about to fall from the corners of his mouth, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Suddenly, a hand appeared in front of me, and it looked like a big, strong and powerful hand.

In his big hand was a corn cob, which was placed on a porcelain plate and had plump and glistening corn kernels.

Compared with the pile of cracked, seedless or shriveled ones in the steamer, the one on the plate was indeed as the old man said, as if it had been carefully selected.

Yun Yi unconsciously wiped away the tears from the corner of his lips.

Perhaps it was because he had been ho-ho-hoed several times in a row, but now he couldn't believe that this would be for him.

"For... for me?"

Yun raised his eyes and looked at the man holding the plate with expectation and some disbelief.

I don’t know if it’s because the corn on the plate was just taken out of the pot and it’s hot to the touch even through the plate or what.

When the man met Yun Yi's gaze, his face froze at first, and then his hand holding the plate began to tremble inexplicably, almost knocking it over.

It was only when the old man opposite noticed his abnormality and coughed twice calmly as a reminder that the man could put on a simple and honest smile.

"Hehe~ Yes, yes~

This, this...this is what the ancestor specially prepared for you, sir, please eat it quickly while it's hot!"

Yun Yi: ???

Ancestor: A thing that is incapable of doing anything but capable of causing trouble!

The man realized what he had said belatedly and sweat immediately dripped from his forehead.

It was his first time doing something like this, and he was really nervous!

"Sir, take this and eat it! It's delicious!"

Yun Yi was stunned for a moment and didn't take it in time, then he saw a hint of anxiety on the man's honest face, as if he wanted to put the corn cob directly into his mouth.

People who know this village are not only simple and warm, but sometimes they are also very fierce.

He was afraid that if he didn't take it, the man would really do it in the next second and shove the corn cob directly into his mouth. Without time to think about it, he hurriedly reached out to take it with a smile.

After taking the plate of corn from the man, Yun opened his mouth to say thank you.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, his expression suddenly froze.

The throat that was about to make a sound seemed to be suddenly strangled by a big hand. The mouth was open for a long time, but no syllable came out.
