Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 55 - 55 Praise

55 Praise

But… it was a fact!

Seeing was believing, wasn’t it?

Shao Yunduan just could not believe what he had seen, nor could he find the logic of what he witnessed. It was indeed a magical world!

He could not help but glance at Qiao Xuan. His wife was indeed blessed!

No wonder his mother kept calling her ‘the lucky star’.

Qiao Xuan caught Shao Yunduan’s sight and smiled at him. She blinked and chuckled. “Am I very lucky?”

She sounded so proud that Shao Yunduan could not help but laugh. She was like an arrogant fox who had raised her tail. He nodded. “Yes, you are very lucky.”

“In this case, I have achieved so much at home. Try speaking highly of me!”

Shao Yunduan. “…”

Shao Yunduan just could not utter a word. How should he praise her?

Qiao Xuan chuckled, seeing his reaction. Seeing the man got so bashful, she added another sentence. “You don’t have to compliment me or praise me, but you have to promise to defend me and stand by my side!”

Shao Yunduan moved his lips. He could speak highly of people, except that he just did not understand what she was talking about.

He nodded and took a deep breath. “I will definitely defend you!”

He was going to stand by her, since she was paying so much attention to the Shao Family.

Satisfied, Qiao Xuan raised her lips. “You have to remember what you said today.”

She was going to remind him of this whenever she had the chance, so he could bear what she had said in his mind firmly. She gradually understood that a woman was born in a disadvantegous place in this era, and she needed someone to lean on.

For example, but for Shao Yunduan and Mother-in-law, the second and the third sections of the family would have torn her apart, and allowed no chance for her to talk sense.

“Don’t worry!”

Early next morning, everyone from the family wanted to check if the water spring was still active.

Qiao Xuan was no exception.

It was the first time for her to do this thing and she wondered if the spring would remain thriving any longer.

Seeing that the spring was still active and water was coming out of the hole, the whole family cheered as if the New Year was around the corner.

“This is a real spring! Oh god, my hanging heart can settle down now!” Ms. Fang said as she patted her chest, smiling.

Eldest Uncle was excited too. “I will get someone to get the water to our yard, so we don’t have to worry about water any more!”

Ms. Fang nodded with a smile. “Let’s do it now!”

She cooked porridge and steamed buns just to celebrate the discovery of the spring.

The stuffing of the steamed buns consisted of two kinds of leek vermicelli eggs, diced sauerkraut bamboo shoots and diced mushrooms. The stuffing made by Qiao Xuan was full of flavor, thin on the wrapping and big in size. When they were out of the steamers, they smelled great.

Everyone was speaking highly of the soft, fresh taste of the warm steamed buns.

After breakfast, Shao Dalang got so excited that he was urged by Ms. Xu to start the work for their sister-in-law. So, Shao Sanlang followed them up to the field.

After all, they could make 20 wen a day!

Eldest Uncle was in charge of the spring, so his sons did not stay at home but went to work instead.

Eldest Uncle soon asked the well expert from the neighbouring village.

Qiao Xuan had her own idea and expressed her suggestions.
