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

Chapter 1507: Chapter 1506: Spring Begins_1 Chapter 1507: Chapter 1506: Spring Begins_1 Just like that, after selling medicine for three days straight, Bei Yun quickly accumulated over two hundred thousand taels of silver. He used all of this silver to buy Floral Dew.

All of it was Date Flower Dew, which he kept separated in his tent. He would not only drink it during meals, but also use it as water when he had nothing else to do.

Moreover, just like the first time he drank it, he would meticulously lick the bottom of the bowl every time he finished drinking, not willing to waste even a tiny drop.

When Qiao Xiaomai heard about this from others, she couldn’t help but ask Tong Sanlang, “Do you think he’s noticed something special about my Floral Dew?”

“He definitely has.”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai immediately became worried, “Does he know about my Spiritual Spring?”

“He shouldn’t know. He has never seen a Spiritual Spring, so he probably won’t connect it to that, and even if he does suspect, you just need to deny it. Even the retired emperor hasn’t suspected you, so don’t worry. Moreover, we have a mysterious Liuli descendant watching over us.”

These words greatly reassured Qiao Xiaomai. Indeed, there was a descendant of Liuli standing behind her and Tong Sanlang.

She quickly put aside these concerns and focused on making Floral Dew.

With the silver as motivation, she was particularly diligent in her efforts.

One day, Tong Tiehu came to find her. They had been in the Capital City for quite some time, and he and Qiao Changshun should return. There was a pile of things to take care of at the manor that couldn’t all be left to Fan Linong.

Qiao Xiaomai also understood this and didn’t try to keep them. However, she asked Qiao Changshun, Zhuang Luhe, and Qiao Dami to stay.

Qiao Changshun’s leg injury from before hadn’t completely healed, Zhuang Luhe needed to attend to the matters of the Charity Hall in the Capital City, and Qiao Dami was studying and practicing martial arts, so this family would temporarily stay with her in the Capital City.

Staying in the Capital City, Qiao Changshun felt uneasy. His whole life had been spent toiling in the soil, and now that he was offered the chance to relax, he felt restless and uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Qiao Xiaomai simply carved out five acres of land in the garden for him to farm once his injuries healed.

She wasn’t a particularly romantic person, and it didn’t matter to her if the entire garden was turned into a farm as long as Qiao Changshun wanted to cultivate it.

However, she did start to think about her thousand acres of land. She and Tong Sanlang had a thousand acres in the outskirts of the Capital City. Originally, the Yang Family had helped to look after it and plant some crops. Now, with the bluestone road between there and the Capital City completed, if Qiao Changshun found the garden to be too small, he could go there instead.

After arranging things for Qiao Changshun, she sent for Yang Hao to come.

Yang Ye had left for the canal project, so the Charity Hall matter had to be handed over to Yang Hao to preside over.

Yang Hao took out one of his shops to serve as the headquarters for the Charity Hall, then sent people to escort Zhuang Luhe around the Capital City to check on the poor.

With this, the long-delayed project finally got underway.

The smile on Zhuang Luhe’s face couldn’t be hidden; she could finally do good deeds to pray for her daughter’s blessing!

With Qiao Changshun and Zhuang Luhe occupied, Qiao Xiaomai was still busy making Floral Dew. There was nothing she could do about it–the quantity was too large, and even with her straightforward mass-production approach, it would take time.

In addition to this, she was also considering the watermelon and crayfish business.

Last summer, these two products had fetched astronomical prices in the Capital City, and the potential profits were too enticing to ignore–she couldn’t just let go.

So, she sent for Yang Hao again to discuss this matter. Remembering the taste of last year’s watermelons and crayfish, Yang Hao’s mouth involuntarily began to water. He swallowed and began working on this matter.

This was easy; watermelons could be grown on the Imperial Manor, and he had several Field Manors under his name on the outskirts of the city, not far from the Capital City. Crayfish could be raised there too. The seedlings could be bought from Ya Wuxia, and Qiao Xiaomai would just need to occasionally irrigate them with Spiritual Spring water.
