Chapter 618: Qiao Xuan’s Plan
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
These seedlings were tender and young, very cute and full of vitality. Even though they were still small, they looked quite different from the common fruit tree seedlings in the north.
Everyone else, including Taotao, found them to be rare and fresh.
Qiao Xuan decided to visit them once a day and infuse some superpower in them to help them grow. The seedlings would grow to be what they should have been like in three or four years within one year’s time.
In this way, they should bloom and bear fruit the next year most probably.
Qiao Xuan could wait at most one year to see if such plants worked.
If not, she would give up the idea.
But if this experiment worked, she would buy more fields and plant a large fruit garden so she could offer special tropical fruits to the market, earning a lot of money out of it.
That would be nice.
If that did not work, she could find a chance to head down south with Shao Yunduan. She would place a lot of tropical fruits into her space, like longans, lychees, and mangoes, all for her to eat anytime.
She was really greedy for them.
She could wait until the magical water in her space reached a certain thickness, then the space would accept ordinary plants as well. After that, she could start to grow those ordinary plants in her space as well.
Well, the space would not be unlimited but hundreds of mu should be enough, right?
Or even thousands of mu?
One small farmland for herself… that would feel so nice!
Qiao Xuan had planned out everything.
After this day, they continued to make lipsticks with new colors and went to the river to get shrimps, or hunt animals in the mountains. Everyday seemed leisurely and peaceful.
Shao Dalangs legs recovered finally. He had recovered to be able to do some heavy work, but not continuously for the first half a year.
The whole family was so happy that this worry was finally gone.
Ms. Xu unexpectedly gave Qiao Xuan five liang and asked her to make a table full of dishes as a celebration.
Qiao Xuan tried to turn away the money. But Ms. Xu insisted that it was their kindness, and that Qiao Xuan needed to accept it.
Qiao Xuan only kept two liang and said with a smile, “Five liang is too much, we would not be able to finish the food! One chicken costs 50 or 60 wen and half a kilo of pork belly would cost just 15 or 16 wen. We won’t be able to finish anything more than that!”
“Two liang would be more than enough!’
She insisted on giving back three liang, which Ms. Xu accepted in the end. She added. “Two liang is all yours, Fifth Sister-in-law. You have to cook for us, and I would feel really embarrassed if you don’t take it.”
She was pregnant, and could not do any work. Her husband’s illness was treated with the shared money and no one countered that. So, Ms. Xu felt really moved.
Qiao Xuan accepted the money eventually with a smile.
The remaining money would be used to buy some small snacks for everyone to eat.
Qiao Xuan made nine dishes and one soup with two liang, including salt-baked chicken, crispy chicken, as well as stewed duck with taro, stewed lion head, fish and sheep pot, ginkgo pork belly soup, and salted egg yolk tofu
