Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home - Chapter 251

251 Hard Working

There were many fish in the big water tank, so a big catfish was caught and stewed with eggplants.

Qiao Xuan also saw that the salted duck eggs she had marinated a while ago could now be eaten. They were not too salty. She peeled several of them. The snow-white egg whites and the oily orange-red egg yolks looked very tempting.

Also, there were other dishes, including a plate of stir-fried wolfberry buds, wolfberry egg drop soup, cold yam slices, cold fungus, peanuts, and green peppers. It was a table full of bright colors. There was meat and vegetables, all looked very appetizing.

This was the first time they ate salted duck eggs. Everyone praised them, especially the oily salted egg yolk, which everyone loved.

!!
Qiao Xuan decided to buy some tofu the next time she met a tofu seller. She would cut it into finger-sized diced tofu, and fry it with salted egg yolk. The taste would be very good.

The following day, Shao Dalang and the others were still going to chop mushrooms. It would mostly be done in the next two days. After that, they would use a saw to cut the fungus material into a suitable length, and then build a shed. With that, the fungus room would be completed.

Qiao Xuan, Taotao, Ms. Xu and Yang Xiaoni continued to work in the floral field.

Seeing the pomegranate tree blooming, they were all amazed.

However, when the pomegranate flower bloomed, it meant that a new lipstick variety could be produced. Everyone was looking forward to it.

Qiao Xuan was very generous. When the lipsticks were done, she gave one to each, which was quite tempting for the ladies.

Yang Xiaoni and Ms. Xu helped to pick the flowers before getting down to weeding.

“Work hard, we will be done with the weed in a couple of days!”

“Okay!”

Having exchanged a few words, they started to work hard.

Qiao Xuan was worried that Ms. Zhang would appear here, which might be a potential trouble. She needed to send her away.

She was not going to let her in.

However, Ms. Zhang did not appear.

That was quite surprising.

She was sure that when Ms. Zhang sucked up to her the day before, she must be planning to get something out of her.

But did she give up so fast after she was turned down?

Suddenly she realized that her Elder Sister-in-law, Third Sister-in-law and Taotao were all here, and Ms. Zhang must not want to be seen by any of them.

Therefore, she did have the intention but she also wanted to dodge the rest of the first section of the family.

Qiao Xuan wondered whether she was planning to borrow money from her.

Ms. Zhang always took advantage of her in-laws’ home, and tried very hard to move everything to her mother’s house. Therefore, if she went to the first section of the family to borrow money, she would most likely be turned down.

After all, she would never return it, since she intended to give away the money to her mother’s home!

If she could not return the money, the first section of the family would not give it.

Maybe Ms. Zhang believed that if she was alone, she could be easily persuaded!

Qiao Xuan felt speechless.

However, when Qiao Xuan understood what Ms. Zhang wanted out of her, she believed that as long as she was not alone, Ms. Zhang would not ask her for money.

She was not afraid of Ms. Zhang. She just did not want to get involved with her.

Qiao Xuan and Shao Taotao managed to make 24 lipsticks during the morning.

It was a blended shade consisting of red and orange color, beautiful and shining like the sun, tempting and lustful.

Qiao Xuan gave one to each of them. Shao Taotao loved it.

“This is such a good shade!”

“It should look good on the lips!”

“…Yes! But a bit too bright. I may not dare to put it on my lips…”

“Why not? Elder Sister-in-law, you can put some and wipe off a little.”

The four of them talked and laughed together.

Qiao Xuan threw a look at the yard, and used her superpower to ripen two watermelons. She asked Shao Taotao to help her carry them home.
