Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Qiao Xuan had undergone a remarkable transformation from her previous timid demeanor as the daughter of a concubine.

Second Mrs. Yuezhengs words held a persuasive power that resonated with Qiao Wei.

It became apparent that the favorable treatment Qiao Xuan and the Shao Family received from the Yuezheng Family was not due to genuine friendship but driven by their pursuit of profits.

The memory of the alluring lipsticks, particularly the limited editions she had glimpsed in a store a few days ago, filled Qiao Wei’s mind, intensifying her

desire to acquire them immediately.

“Mom, can’t we get a few sets from her?” Qiao Wei blurted out, referring to the woman in question.

Qiao Kou, equally captivated by the allure of the lipsticks, contemplated for a moment and then smiled, saying, “Mother, I also wish to have some. After all, our sister is the one who creates them. It seems only fair that she shares a few with us, wouldn’t you agree?”

Madame Qiao responded, “Let’s not ask her right away. I have a plan.”

Qiao Wei’s dissatisfaction was evident, but Qiao Kou, ever agreeable, smiled and expressed her agreement with their mother’s decision.

The Qiao Family’s absence from the doorstep brought a sense of relief to the Shao Family.

Qiao Xuan shifted her focus towards purchasing 1,000 mu of land instead.

With the assistance of the Yuezheng Family, she smoothly carried out the development plan for the barren lands by enlisting people to conduct explorations.

Qiao Xuan once again approached Yuezheng Xiao, requesting additional seeds of tangerines, pomeloes, dragon fruits, and papayas from the southern region.

The more seeds she could acquire, the better.

She resolved to plant them as soon as possible, eager to see if her extraordinary abilities could help them survive the winter.

If mangoes, lychees, and longans bore fruit next year, she intended to expand their cultivation further.

Yuezheng Xiao, displaying great generosity, responded by personally hiring reliable individuals from his own family company to procure the seeds.

Ensuring the survival of the transported seedlings became their primary concern, though Qiao Xuan and the others were confident it wouldn’t pose significant difficulties.

Qiao Xuan held no worries about the transportation process. These seedlings were not delicate or fragile; they could withstand the journey without issue.

Particularly the dragon fruits and papayas, which were known for their resilience.

In addition to acquiring fruits from the southern region, Qiao Xuan secured 30 mu of land for lemon trees and another 20 mu for figs.

Once Qiao Xuan finalized the plan, she no longer had to visit the fields daily since Yuezheng Xiao’s team took care of the necessary arrangements. However, Qiao Xuan didn’t completely delegate the responsibility. She continued to make regular visits to the fields.

Sometimes, she would bring along Taotao and Yang Xiaoni, allowing them to accompany her and learn more about the process, which would prove

beneficial for their own knowledge.

On a particular day, an unexpected invitation arrived from Yuezheng Ting, inviting Qiao Xuan to a gathering.

Qiao Xuan was taken aback by the surprise invitation but ultimately accepted it wholeheartedly.

Qiao Xuan found herself without the company of Yang Xiaoni, Taotao, or Chunyu. However, she knew she had to protect herself even without their presence.

Escorted by a female maid, Qiao Xuan climbed into a wagon that would take them beyond the city’s limits. Curiosity did not drive her to inquire about their destination.

Eventually, they arrived at a mansion situated in an outskirts area. Qiao Xuan spotted Yuezheng Ting engaged in conversation with Qiao Kou and Qiao Wei. While she hadn’t anticipated this meeting, she wasn’t surprised either.

Madame Qiao had previously spoken with Ms. Mi Junior, and it was only natural for Qiao Kou and Qiao Wei to form a friendship. Qiao Xuan understood the underlying dynamics.

“Mrs. Shao, how unexpected to have you respond to my invitation. What a delightful surprise!” Yuezheng Ting sneered, her tone laced with mockery.

Yuezheng Ting knew that she could never marry Xie Jingrong. Yet, she refused to be forced into a union with anyone else, especially when her mother persisted in finding a suitable suitor. Yuezheng Ting was determined to find a way to escape such arrangements..
