Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1258: Chapter 1257: Got Tanned_1 Chapter 1258: Chapter 1257: Got Tanned_1 Charity, doing good deeds–if it involved donating silver and clothes to impoverished areas as Qiao Xiaomai initially envisioned, then it would definitely involve informing Yang Wenxiao.

Here, no one could bypass the Yang Family in their actions; otherwise, they could expect to be resented.

Especially for activities that could garner substantial reputation, the Yang Family must lead.

“Mother feels too guilty. If the Charity Organization is really established, let her hold a position and personally visit those impoverished areas. After all, the main purpose of setting it up is to provide her with peace of mind,” she said.

“But it’s doing good deeds as well, and if it’s counted as our merit, then the space can upgrade again,” Qiao Xiaomai disagreed with this view.

If one was going to make the effort, then why not strive to maximize the benefits?

“Do you have the energy to do this?” Tong Sanlang asked.

To do good deeds, he and Qiao Xiaomai would have to genuinely participate. If it really required visiting impoverished areas, could he and Qiao Xiaomai go?

He and Qiao Xiaomai aspired to stay in this manor, living out the rest of their lives in peaceful stability.

Running around everywhere did not fit his initial plan.

“But I can’t help feeling discontent and, additionally, insecure–the Divine Liquid is gone, and I don’t know when the next drop will appear. I have to keep a drop for self-defense,” Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t help but sigh deeply.

If she truly became involved in this, given her level of concern, she would absolutely follow to personally ensure that the silver and clothes reached the homes of the poor and see with her own eyes the roads and houses being repaired.

She would certainly ensure the charitable funds were put to good use.

But that would be far too exhausting.

“What do you think we should do?” She shifted her body, looking towards Tong Sanlang.

Tong Sanlang was lying down, his handsome face filled with contemplation, “Let mother do it, in pursuit of peace of mind. As for us, we’ll see,” he said.

“Alright, let’s write a letter to Yang Wenxiao tomorrow.”

Speaking of Yang Wenxiao, Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t help but sigh. She was scared of being ordered around in Capital City, and she truly didn’t want any contact with Yang Wenxiao, lest he set his sights on Tong Sanlang once again.

But Yang Wenxiao must be informed about this matter, so the next day after breakfast, the couple took out pen and ink to write the letter.

After writing the letter, they handed it to Fan Linong to send out.

Capital City.

The watermelons finally ripened. This fruit had not been introduced in Daqi for long, and few people grew it. The Yang Family planted hundreds of acres in their own manor. This year, with favorable weather, it was another bountiful harvest.

Yang Wenxiao was getting on in years and should not eat too much watermelon, but a small bowl after waking from his lunchtime nap was enjoyable and cooling.

On that day, Emperor Yongan came to visit him, and father and son ate lunch together.

After being harmed by the hellflower, Emperor Yongan turned into a food enthusiast, and his appetite doubled. Previously indifferent to food choices, now he wanted everything to be exquisite and delicious.

At the dining table, watching Emperor Yongan’s good appetite, Yang Wenxiao couldn’t help but laugh, “How is the crop you guys planted?”

“It’s sprouted, grown quite tall. We’ll be able to eat it before the end of summer,” Emperor Yongan said.

Yang Wenxiao showed a pleased expression upon hearing this, “Not bad, you’ve indeed worked. Look, you’ve even got a tan.”

People who usually didn’t get much sunlight but now toiled under the sun weeding, fertilizing, and watering were normally going to get tanned–Yang Wenxiao had given the order that no one was to help, and the palace maids could not step forward to hold umbrellas.

Not only was Emperor Yongan tanned, but Yao Xian was tanned too.

It didn’t matter much for Emperor Yongan, a man, to be a little darker, but for Yao Xian, the Empress, who valued her appearance highly, getting tanned was a major concern.
