Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm-Chapter 1615 - 1614: Comics

Not just duck eggs, but also chicken eggs—the Field Manor raises quite a few chickens, and some of their eggs are sent to Jiweiju, Zuixian Building, and the Imperial Palace. Others are turned into century eggs, which they plan to sell during the next big promotional event.

Now that Bei Yun had spoken up, Qiao Xiaomai didn’t think twice about sparing a few eggs for him. She put together some century eggs and salted duck eggs for him.

Bei Yun was overjoyed. On the way back, he suggested to Bei Lingsu that they should just move into the Field Manor. Given her friendship with Qiao Xiaomai, whatever meals Qiao Xiaomai cooked would surely include a portion for Bei Lingsu, and by extension, for him as well.

They should all just live at the Field Manor! frёewebnoѵēl.com

Bei Lingsu ignored the hopeful look in Bei Yun’s eyes and flatly rejected him, "No, I still have to teach at the Bei Residence."

She had plenty of students, not to mention Qiao Xiaomai’s Guard Team of two hundred. She needed to teach them wholeheartedly.

"Besides, this is where the retired emperor rests and recuperates. If you set up shop here, you’ll disturb his peace and quiet."

"But this place is a treasure trove!" Bei Yun said, raising his hand to touch his face. The smile on his face turned into a look of concern. "I’m not getting any younger. For the sake of maintaining this appearance, I should really stay here to rejuvenate."

Bei Lingsu raised an eyebrow. "...Why on earth does a grown man like you care so much about your looks? And you’re finally admitting you’re not young anymore?!"

"This face is my greatest achievement—it’s the foundation of my livelihood!" Bei Yun looked smug and decidedly unapologetic. "Even people who doubt my medical skills abandon all suspicion the moment they see this face."

Bei Lingsu couldn’t help but roll her eyes. "Everyone in Daqi already knows your medical prowess. You don’t need to rely on your face anymore."

"That won’t do," Bei Yun said firmly. "I’ve looked at this face for forty years. I can’t bear for it to be ruined."

He pulled out a small copper mirror from his robes, inspecting his reflection from side to side. As he admired himself, his lips curved into a delighted smile. He looked thoroughly pleased with himself.

Bei Lingsu: "..."

Goosebumps ran all over her skin.

This lunatic!

She cursed him silently in her heart and averted her gaze.

Even one more glance might scar her eyes!

Meanwhile, Qiao Xiaomai really did find time to wander around the Shadow Puppet Theater in the Capital City. The tickets were cheap, the performances were captivating, and the theater stayed packed all day. Even she couldn’t find a seat and had to stand at the back, sneaking a few glances.

The audience was so plentiful that the theater even sold tickets for the private rooms reserved for distinguished guests.

Standing and thoroughly enjoying the show, she managed to catch an entire performance. After the audience exited, the next show began promptly in just a quarter of an hour.

As she left the theater, she thought to herself, Hmm, we must have them perform a few shows at the Field Manor. After being so used to watching movies on big screens, these shadow puppet plays feel refreshingly novel and nostalgic.

Back at the Field Manor, Tong Sanlang wasn’t in the study. Instead, he was in the small courtyard where Yang Wenxiao stayed, showing him some comics he had drawn.

He was illustrating the story of "Journey to the West" in comic form. Each character was lifelike with subtle hints of playful charm, reminiscent of modern children’s picture books. Beside each page were a few lines of concise and smooth explanations, making the story understandable even to those unfamiliar with the original.

Yang Wenxiao flipped through the pages one by one, growing increasingly satisfied as he read. When he finished, he looked up at Tong Sanlang. "What gave you the idea to come up with this?"

Illustrated stories—this format was so innovative, something entirely unprecedented!

He was profoundly impressed just by looking at it himself. How much more amazed would others be? If these comics were to be published, they would undoubtedly become explosively popular.
