Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm-Chapter 1612 - 1611: Peasant Woman Qiao Xiaomai

Most of Qiao Xiaomai’s ideas are driven by her desire for food. Why could she come up with them?

Because she wanted to eat!

Desire is the source of invention!

Yang Wenxiao accepted this logic and would occasionally wander near the rice fields. If this method proved successful, he would promote it across all of Daqi next year.

While Yang Wenxiao wandered often, Qiao Xiaomai wandered even more often. Yang Wenxiao missed the taste of that bowl of rice, so she diligently sprinkled Spiritual Spring water, trying her best to infuse even the slightest trace of its essence into the rice.

To be honest, she was now essentially tied to Yang Wenxiao.

Although Yang Wenxiao had consumed a complete drop of Divine Liquid back then, most of its effects were used to save his life, with only a small portion left to strengthen his body.

This meant that the benefits the Divine Liquid provided to his body were significantly reduced.

He was now ninety-one years old, and after the New Year, he would be ninety-two.

Even though his eyes remained clear and his mind sharp, his age was undeniable. His bodily functions—vision, hearing, smell, taste, teeth, and so on—were all gradually deteriorating. While these changes weren’t visibly apparent, he could feel them clearly himself, which was why he became intrigued by Bei Yun’s promises of longevity.

However, thanks to her Spiritual Spring water, this overall decline had been temporarily suppressed.

But it was merely suppression—her Spiritual Spring water wasn’t Divine Liquid. It could nurse and nourish but couldn’t cure diseases.

Yang Wenxiao would inevitably grow older with each passing day.

At this point, if she wasn’t by his side to provide him with Spiritual Spring water, his aging would become very apparent.

In such a case, he might actually end up believing Bei Yun’s nonsense.

That was something she didn’t want to see.

So as long as Yang Wenxiao was alive, she couldn’t leave his side. She had to remain bound to him.

But life is unpredictable, and no one can say what the future holds. If, by some irresistible force, she were ever forced to leave the Capital City, it would then be crucial to leave behind some crops nurtured by Spiritual Spring water.

Yang Wenxiao would need them.

In addition to crops, there were also livestock, fruits, and other produce to provide comprehensive nourishment. This would further help slow his aging process.

Over time, a genuine bond had developed between her and Yang Wenxiao. She didn’t want him to die.

Moreover, aside from these common crops and livestock, she was also cultivating a batch of medicinal materials.

Birth, aging, illness, and death are matters beyond human control. This effort was not just for Yang Wenxiao but also for the loved ones around her. By irrigating these medicinal materials with Spiritual Spring water, their medicinal properties would be enhanced.

For instance, ginseng, Sanqi, fritillaria, smilax, forsythia, atractylodes, and so on. Many of these herbs typically grew in the southern provinces or mountainous regions and weren’t found near the Capital City. But with the cheat of her Spiritual Spring water, these herbs had all survived under her meticulous care.

Since they had all survived, she became even more diligent in watering them with Spiritual Spring water.

With rare herbs thriving, common herbs were even easier to grow. She had also planted many common, practical herbal medicines.

With an endless supply of Spiritual Spring water, she aimed to make the most of it.

Every day, she would water the plants with Spiritual Spring water to improve their quality as much as possible.

The Field Manor covered five thousand acres. Every day, she had to ride around on horseback, focusing particularly on the medicinal material fields and rice paddies, which she watered with Spiritual Spring water daily.

Because there was so much land, it wasn’t possible for her to tend to every single acre daily. However, even watering them every two to three days would suffice. The crops and livestock she was cultivating were already attractive enough to make people eager to pay for them.
