ATBBMPL – Chapter 5
Shen Tingshuang did not
need to wave, the car directly stopped beside her.
The door opened. The first thing that appeared was a
pair of black high heels, followed by a red dress. Shen Tingshuang looked up,
and a lady with sunglasses and red lips walked down.
This woman looked familiar.
Wang Qian saw that Shen Tingshuang was not enthusiastic
at all, and she was a little unhappy, but still put very sad face,
"Tingshuang, you have suffered during this time."
Shen Tingshuang was a little perplexed: "?"
"You must have blamed me for not being able to
come here earlier." Wang Qian said with eloquence, "You seem to have
lost a lot of weight, just come back with me, and apologize to Uncle Shen and
your sister."
Seeing Wang Qian, Shen Tingshuang came to pull herself, averted
her eyes and quickly picked up an apricot and stuffed it into Wang Qian's
mouth. The latter subconsciously took a bite and then froze.
Wang Qian's first reaction was, what had Shen Tingshuang
fed her, what had she eaten! Then she found out that it was apricots or
unpeeled apricots to be exact. The key point was that they were delicious?
When Wang Qian finished eating the apricot, she found
that Shen Tingshuang had left.
"Tingshuang, wait." Wang Qian stepped on her high
heels and chased Shen Tingshuang up the mountain.
The reason why Shen Tingshuang patiently listened to
Wang Qian's words was to find a chance to feed her apricots. Now that her task
has been completed, naturally there is no need to stay here anymore.
Wang Qian walked and found that she couldn't find Shen
Tingshuang shadow. Seeing that there was a road next to her, she went up to
find the courtyard.
Shen Tingshuang was taking care of the land in front of
the courtyard, and saw that Wang Qian's face was not very good, "Why are
you here?" She felt that no matter how thick-skinned this person was, she should
not continue to follow up.
But, obviously she underestimated Wang Qian.
Wang Qian saw that Shen Tingshuang's attitude towards
her was a little cold and she was puzzled. In the past, Shen Tingshuang did not
have this attitude, "Tingshuang, I am worried about you."
Shen Tingshuang took a long look at Wang Qian. She knew
on the first half of the book, this Wang Qian was a friend of the original owner,
but was also Shen Xuan's lackey that were always behind Shen Xuan’s back.
Obviously there was no need to talk with such a person,
but what Shen Tingshuang did not expect was that Wang Qian followed her up:
"Is it okay to come to someone else's house without permission?"
Wang Qian was dumbfounded when Shen Tingshuang said
this. Very funny, the key point is that the look in her eyes was very serious:
"How can you count me as someone else?"
Shen Tingshuang felt that Wang Qian didn't seem to
understand people, and continued to bury her head in weeding.
Seeing that Shen Tingshuang ignored herself, Wang Qian
asked again: "Tingshuang, don't you want to go back to Shen's house?"
"Then have you considered what to do with your
future life?"
"This mountain is so big and it is a barren
mountain, do you want to consider selling it?"
"Let me find a seller for you, so that you don't
have to worry about your future life."
The reason why the original owner sold the mountain was
because Wang Qian, Shen Tingshuang raised her head and looked at Wang. Qian:
"How much should I sell? Ten million?"
Wang Qian felt complacent when she heard the question.
She knew that Shen Tingshuang had just pretended to listen to her, but soon,
Wang Qian put away her happy expression with a serious look and said: "It
is difficult for this mountain to sell for ten million, but who calls you my
best friend? I will definitely help you find a seller of ten million."
Shen Tingshuang listened carefully, "100 square
kilometers, altitude of 2,000 meters above sea level and such a big mountain,
whoever sells for ten million is a fool." The original owner was deceived
because she was too stupid. Shen Tingshuang the ginseng spirit has lived for
ten thousand years. These little tricks can still be blocked.
Wang Qian's face turned red and white, and she
obviously couldn't understand it. She only hadn't meet Shen Tingshuang for a
few days, how can she become so witty.
Shen Tingshuang threw the weeds in her hands on the
ground, and the dust sprayed Wang Qian all over.
Wang Qian jumped and dodged.
Shen Tingshuang had already walked back to her
courtyard, and she turned her head back, "If you really feel sorry for me,
then find more people to buy the fruits I planted." After speaking, Shen
Tingshuang slammed the courtyard door shut.
Wang Qian was so angry outside that her face was green
and finally stomped away.
After Shen Tingshuang had lunch, she ran down the
mountain. Today plus yesterday's income, she has made 63 yuan. She plans to buy
some seeds.
When going down the mountain, pour the apricot with
spiritual energy by the way.
The small shop was a little far away from Xin Yuan Shan
and it contained only the seeds of cabbage, pepper and cucumber. These seeds
were thrown in the corners, covered with dust.
Shen Tingshuang was a little puzzled. In such a
village, seeds should be the best sellers. Why there are so few kinds of seeds
in the shops and no one seems to buy them.
After thinking about it, Shen Tingshuang bought two
bags of each seeds for 6 yuan.
Back at Xin Yuan Shan, Shen Tingshuang picked up some
stones, poured a trace of spiritual energy into each, and placed them at the
foot of the mountain before going up the mountain.
When Wang Qian entered the mountain today, Shen
Tingshuang thought that she had to set up an array at the foot of the mountain
to prevent anyone from entering the mountain at will.
Back in the courtyard, Shen Tingshuang turned the soil
in the inner courtyard flowerbed, planted the seeds she bought, and poured spiritual
energy before going to take a bath and rest.
Only if you have enough
energy can you continue to do the mission.
...
Wang Qian got into the car angrily. After thinking
about it, she called Shen Xuan. Her tone was completely different from the
occasional disgust when she was talking to Shen Tingshuang. She was
particularly flattering on the phone: "Hey, Miss Shen, I saw Shen Tingshuang just
now."
Shen
Xuan never looked down upon Wang Qian, but when she heard what she said, she
still showed a hint of sarcasm: "What about my sister?"
Obviously it was the gentlest tone. The question was
clearly concerned, but Wang Qian felt cold all over: "She sells fruit in
Xin Yuan Shan, but it seems that no one buys it. I'm trying to persuade her to
sell Xin Yuan Shan. "
Xin Yuan Shan was originally left to Shen Xuan by her grandmother,
but was given to Shen Tingshuang upon her return to the family as the real
daughter. Shen Xuan in this life, there is nothing that can be snatched from her
hands:" Really, you have to work hard. "
Wang Qian listened and said with passion, "Miss
Shen, don't worry! Xin Yuan Shan should belong to you, it's originally yours."
Shen Xuan hung up the phone, her stupid sister, to be honest;
she had never cared about it.
…
At midnight, the system sounded again: "Please let
16 people eat the fruits you grow within 12 hours."
Shen Tingshuang: "?"
She found that the number of people who need to eat
each day is twice the number of the previous day. Shen Tingshuang calculated
that one of the eight people was Wang Qian yesterday, and she will definitely
not come today.
In other words, she has to find 9 people to eat the
fruits she grows to complete this task.
But today's task is destined to be less difficult for
Shen Tingshuang to complete. Just after going down the mountain, Shen
Tingshuang ran into Li Ying who came to buy apricots last time.
Seeing Shen Tingshuang coming over, she hurriedly said,
"Sister, the apricots I bought last time, please give me twenty catties."
"So
many?" Shen Tingshuang packed most of the apricots in the, which was about
twenty catties.
Li Ying explained: "Our department was engaged in
activities, and a dozen people came. So, everyone wants to taste it."
Shen Tingshuang saw a big car behind Li Ying and many
people got on and off.
Shen Tingshunag smiled, the task should be complete.
Colleagues behind Li Ying have long heard Li Ying say
that the apricots in this village are very delicious. When everyone came, they
found that the village was not prosperous at all and there was nothing to play
with.
But seeing the girl standing opposite Li Ying, her fair
skin is not like apricots seller, especially when she smiles, she is even sweeter,
as if just by looking at her smile we would feel happy in our heart.
Li Ying introduced Shen Tingshuang to a colleague,
"This is what I said before, the apricots this girl sells is
delicious."
Shen Tingshuang packed twenty catties of apricots and
handed them to Li Ying, who directly gave them to colleagues behind her:
"Try it."
Behind her, a male colleague saw that Shen Tingshuang
was beautiful, and he felt that he should give face to others. He took an
apricot on the spot, and he thought about how to praise the apricot.
He peeled the skin, fed it into his mouth, and suddenly
his eyes widened. After finally eating one, he went to get the second one.
"Hey Old Wu, why are you acting like you never eat
apricots?"
Their
company is still a medium-sized company, and the quality of the employees is
also considered high. They should often eat fruit like apricots, so this
reaction is unexpected.
Lao Wu finished eating the second apricot, "Li
Ying didn't lie to you, this apricot is really delicious!" As for the fake
praises he initially thought of saying, Lao Wu felt that they became real by
eating this apricot.
A female colleague also took one and tasted it, and
then said: "Wow, these apricots are so delicious! Boss, weigh me a catty,
no, ten catties! Weigh ten catties and pack for take away. "
Li Ying was very happy when she heard this. To be
precise, their company activity was the team building of their department. She
was responsible for the location survey. After eating Shen Tingshuang's
apricots, she went back and said that she chose this village.
When her colleague heard that it was a village, they
initially felt bored.
She told her colleagues that the apricots here are
particularly delicious, but all of them were dubious.
Li Ying was not in a hurry, she knew that when everyone
comes, they will know how true what she said was.
Li Ying and the head of the department replied that they
can bring their own barbecue ingredients, and there is no need to pay for the location
and activities. The budget is 5,000 yuan.
The head of the department didn't have much
disagreement about where the team building was held. What he fancied was the
result and the funding.
Li Ying took a few apricots to the department head:
"Boss, taste it."
This boss also tasted one, and his eyes were bright.
These years, he has been on many business trips. He didn’t lack eating many
delicious apricots. But feeling this apricots to be extremely delicious, he
couldn't help but said: "How can twenty catties be enough? After the event
is over, I want ten catties to take away personally."
Li Ying smiled and asked Shen Tingshuang when she saw
the appearance of her colleague: "Sister, is there a river on your
mountain? We want to have a barbecue. Is it convenient?"

The author has something to say:
Male
lead: Hey, author, have you forgotten me?
Ah Qi (author): Oh, wait…

TN - MD: I found that Ah Qi the author switch around between 辛元山 (Xin Yuan Shan/Xin Yuan Mountain) and 幸元山 (Xing Yuan Shan/Xing Yuan Mountain) in this chapter. The first letter looks similar and their pinyin also similar with only 1 letter difference.
To avoid confusion I will just use Xin Yuan Shan from here forward, I personally like this one better, hehe J
Previous chapters have been updated.
