The last plant pet took me to be the landlord

Chapter 12: Weeding

The next morning, Lu Beier woke up feeling sore all over, as if she had dreamed all night and didn't get enough rest. She knew it was because the wooden bed didn't have a thick mattress.

It was already daybreak. She looked at the old electronic watch she found in the bedside drawer in her room. It was six o'clock. Although the watch was cheap and old, probably a replacement, it still seemed to be accurate. Lu Beier was quite satisfied with it and didn't dislike it at all.

"Good morning! Little Trumpet! Good morning! Little Nine!"

"Good morning, host!" Xiaojiu's voice was cheerful in his consciousness, and he seemed to be energetic every moment.

As for the little trumpet, it was also shaking its head happily at its owner.

I took the sportswear I found yesterday, changed out of my pajamas, and started brushing my teeth and washing up. The toothbrush and towel were all new. In rural areas, far from shopping malls, supermarkets, and convenience stores, most people would prepare some of these common daily necessities in advance. In addition to daily necessities, they also usually prepare a lot of processed food and seasonings. This is very common in the countryside.

Just like Lu Beier’s grandmother’s house.

While brushing her teeth, Xiaojiu in Lu Beier's consciousness began to repeat the things she had sorted out last night about what she was going to do today, and of course she did not forget to insert the task of searching for seeds.

Lu Beier felt that Xiaojiu was probably worried that she would not be able to take care of the system tasks today, so she kept reminding her intentionally or unintentionally.

After washing up, I ignored it and directly picked up the small speaker and put it on my shoulder, then went downstairs to the kitchen to light the fire and boil water. This morning I still had a simple steamed sweet potato.

After the water boiled, while the yams were still not cooked, Lu Beier took the trumpet and began to clean the two-story building she lived in. After cleaning, the yams were just ripe and ready to eat.

After quickly finishing his meal, he began searching for things he might need in the room next to the kitchen where miscellaneous items were stored.

The utility room was filled with dust and there were too many useless things. Lu Beier found a clean towel to cover her head and face to reduce the inhalation of dust.

Most of the things in the utility room are unused farm tools, and there are also quite a few things that have been eliminated and are no longer used, but people are reluctant to throw away.

Lu Bei'er lived in her grandmother's home in the countryside for many years. Her grandmother's home was also in this province, about 200 kilometers away from where she was now.

After her grandparents passed away when she was in high school, she hadn't returned to the countryside for a long time.

But her childhood experiences allow her to cope with her current situation with ease.

First, I found some farm tools I needed and piled them in the yard. Then I searched inconspicuous places such as corners, windowsills, and walls, and found many odds and ends wrapped in various packaging bags.

I opened them one by one and reached in to take them out. In my mind, I could hear Xiaojiu's cheerful "ding! ding" sounds continuously.

"Ding! Unmutated edible bean seeds detected... Ding! Unmutated edible bean seeds detected... They are bean seed number one, bean seed number two, bean seed number three, bean seed number four... Would the host like to recycle them?"

Lu Beier picked a bag at random and reached out to grab a handful of mixed dried beans of different kinds, some of which she recognized, but most of which she couldn't name.

These are old varieties of beans that have been kept in rural areas for a long time. They are rarely seen on the market because they have low yields and little economic value.

Even Xiaojiu's system cannot name them one by one, and can only call them all - beans.

Lu Bei'er couldn't help but laugh.

After listening to the system announcement that finally stopped after a while, she said to Xiaojiu, "These seeds are not many in quantity. You can pick a few of each type to recycle. I will plant the rest!"

"Okay! Host!" Xiao Jiu was obviously very happy. The seeds it collected from Lu Bei'er were all the most vigorous ones, which were guaranteed to germinate and grow. Therefore, the number did not need to be too large.

Afterwards, Lu Beier found peanuts, sesame seeds, garlic, ginger, chili peppers for Xiaojiu, as well as many vegetable seeds packed in different small cloth bags.

Lu Bei'er didn't recognize most of them, but with Xiao Jiu's report, she basically knew them. However, Xiao Jiu sometimes only reported their general classification, and their specific names were replaced by numbers.

"Ding! Unmutated edible vegetable seeds detected, Green Vegetable No. 1, Green Vegetable No. 2, Green Vegetable No. 3..."

……

“Can you please let me know if it is recycled?”

……

There are more than a dozen kinds of vegetables and more than a dozen numbers and names. Xiaojiu feels a little embarrassed to announce them all.

Lu Beier, "Xiaojiu, don't you have the specific names of these vegetable seeds in your database?"

"Host! Many primitive plants on Earth do not have specific names. My database is the latest one. Because it is new, some plants that have been passed down from the past and do not have specific names can only be distinguished by category. But as long as they are not the same species, the system will reward corresponding points! Host, do you want to see how many points you have gained now?"

"I don't want to know!" Lu Bei'er grabbed another cloth bag, and suddenly a series of "Ding! Ding! No mutation detected..." sounds rang out.

After Lu Beier had found almost every possible place to put seeds in the corners of the house, Xiaojiu's broadcast gradually stopped.

"Host! Host! Take a quick look. Your storage warehouse is already dozens of square meters! You have more than a hundred points! You can draw the lottery twice!"

It seems that Xiaojiu is more excited than Lu Beier.

"Don't be in a hurry!" Lu Bei'er came out of the utility room and looked at the lush weeds on both sides of the concrete road outside the yard.

"Xiaojiu, before you came to Earth, was there a lack of plants in the place where you stayed?"

As if asking casually, Xiao Jiu hesitated, "...Host! Why do you ask that? Do you know where I came from?"

It's still that harmless little baby voice.

"I don't know! Just look at the grass all over the mountains. Isn't it very tenacious? Xiaojiu, you have to know that no matter what you plant in the ground, the first thing that grows is grass. Places with grass are the most suitable for plant growth!" Xiaojiu was stunned by Lu Bei'er's trick.

"Host! What you mean is... Hey, host, why are you pulling weeds?"

Lu Beier found a pair of cotton gloves from somewhere and began to pull the grass by the roadside. She used her supernatural powers to sense the weeds in front of her. There were no dangerous plants, nor any plants that could respond to her. There were only some weeds that were much more lush than before the end of the world. Most of them may have mutated and are no longer ordinary weeds, but there will definitely be some that slip through the net.
