Chapter 54: Expensive fruit
Sighing weakly, Coco dropped the wooden bucket on the river and filled it to the brim with water.
After the fiasco over the flying pig and almost dying in the waterfall pool, Coco and Lala silently agreed to the terms of going up the mountain to see the vegetables and fruit before going back to the village a couple of hours earlier than their usual time.
So, right now, Coco decided to water the vegetables she planted, having a small sprout already peeking through the patches of soil, demanding for water.
It hasn’t been a week and yet the plants are growing already, the radish, basil, and carrots were already peeking, and no, she wasn’t talking about just a sprout, she could literally see the orange of the carrots and the reddish hue of the radish.
The basils are already five to six inches tall, just a few more inches and they would be good for harvest.
The state of the potatoes are the same as the basils, the only difference is that she could see the potatoes sprouting small flowers.
After emptying out the bucket, she went back to the river for more water for the potatoes, radishes, and basils.
While she was watering the plant, the garden fairy was growing tropical fruits such as kiwis, grapes, dragon fruits, and oranges— she decided to grow just four fruits because her human friend brought only one bag.
Lala is not even sure if she could fit all the fruits inside the bag and she was also not sure if Coco would be able to carry more fruits if she created a basket since Coco still had to carry the dead flying pig laying a few feet away from Coco’s vegetable patches.
