Chapter 116 Black Soil



Ye Wenxue was unaware that her son was using the pitiful act to trick Su Jiu, and was focused on taking care of the bean sprouts growing in the buckets.

After several experiences, Ye Wenxue became adept at sprouting beans. With the help of the spiritual spring, she could forcibly shorten the sprouting time, and the beans would be ready in three to five days.

This is the business Ye Wenxue plans to do with the bald man—or rather, with the bald man's mother, Xu Lin's mother, and Lan Qing.

The bandits were clumsy and incapable of doing any meticulous work.

Ye Wenxue had also observed that these three people were very meticulous, especially the bald man's mother, who could do embroidery and naturally could also sprout beans well.

Anyway, there's nothing to do in winter, and embroidering all day is bad for your eyes, so I might as well sprout beans with her.

It's very cold at this time of year, and no vegetables can grow well. Not every household has a heated room, so there's a large market for fresh vegetables.

As she pondered, Ye Wenxue focused her mind on the space, intending to see if it had advanced again.

Having devoured two top-grade jade pendants, it's time for my space to advance.

As soon as Ye Wenxue's mind sank in, her vision blurred for a moment.

She instinctively became more alert, frowned, and stared intently, only to be completely taken aback.

A plot of land the size of a football field suddenly appeared before our eyes.

Unlike the flat cement ground before, the land in the advanced space is clearly high-quality black soil suitable for growing crops, far more fertile than the land turned up in the valley.

Ye Wenxue was secretly delighted.

She had originally thought that with the ground frozen over in winter and Su Jiu living in the valley, she wouldn't be able to farm for a while to prevent her space from being exposed.

Unexpectedly, the advancement of the spatial dimension gave Ye Wenxue a pleasant surprise.

—The space is not affected by the outside temperature, which means you can grow crops anytime and grow anything!

After surveying the space, Ye Wenxue piled up the scattered seasonings, first-aid kits, various seeds, and other miscellaneous items to one side, preparing to take a hoe and come in to till the soil and plant vegetables.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the idea came out, the ground in the space was plowed over as if by an invisible rake, and in an instant, the ground was turned over.

Ye Wenxue: "..."

She tentatively considered planting all the seeds and then watering the ground with the spiritual spring.

The space changed drastically in the next instant.

All the seeds that could be planted directly, such as the remaining few saplings, rice, wheat seeds, etc., were planted.

Meanwhile, crops that need to be cut into pieces and sprouted, such as sweet potatoes and garlic, remained completely untouched.

Looking at everything before her, Ye Wenxue felt a sudden drop in pressure.

To be honest, when Su Jiu took her pulse and told her to rest well, Ye Wenxue felt a lot more pressure.

She was the only able-bodied person in the family. No matter how capable the eldest son, Dazhuang, was, he was only eight or nine years old. She couldn't put all the work on him.

Apart from Su Jiu, there are six mouths to feed in the family.

It's not that you can't use money, but living off your savings is not a good habit.

Especially now that food and vegetable prices are soaring.

Now that the space has advanced to a higher level, it is highly proactive and can reduce Ye Wenxue's burden considerably.

"Mother, mother!"

Faint shouts could be heard from outside.

Ye Wenxue quickly left the space, wiped her hands, and went outside: "Here, what's wrong?"

Siwang ran over, scratching his head in confusion: "Mom, were you in the kitchen just now? I looked in the kitchen, but I didn't see anyone there."

Ye Wenxue pushed his shoulder and led him into the house: "Maybe you're seeing things. Where are your eldest brother, second sister, third brother, and little sister?"

Siwang blinked guiltily:

"My eldest brother said he has something to ask Uncle Xu, so he asked Doctor Su to take him to the bamboo house. My second sister is practicing her boxing; she almost hit me. My third brother is practicing calligraphy while watching Yuanyuan. I... I don't want to do anything; I just want to stay with Mother."

Ye Wenxue patted Siwang's head:

"That won't do. You're young now, so it's fine if you don't do anything. But in a few years, you'll have to think carefully about whether you want to go to school, learn martial arts, or go into business..."

Siwang hugged Ye Wenxue's leg and said in a muffled voice:

"I just want to be with my mother."

Ye Wenxue chuckled and coaxed him softly, "Alright, alright, our Siwang is still young, anything goes."

Dazhuang didn't know what he went to the bamboo house for; he didn't return until late at night.

Fortunately, Su Jiu protected them, so nothing bad happened.

Two days later, Su Jiu brought a message from Baldy that the matter in the mountain stronghold had been resolved.

After settling the two matters, Ye Wenxue continued to travel back and forth to the bamboo house, firstly to pick up Dazhuang, who was studying there.

Secondly, he also took the opportunity to check on Xu Lin, who was receiving treatment for his eyes, and Zhi Wu and Zhi Wang, who were seriously injured.

After several days of recuperation, Zhiwang was able to get out of bed.

Although Zhiwu was seriously injured, he was in better physical condition and his spirit and energy seemed much better than Zhiwang's.

As soon as Ye Wenxue led Shuangshuang into the house, she saw Dazhuang sitting by the brazier, slowly writing.

Beside them, Zhiwu and Zhiwang were diligently massaging Dazhuang's shoulders and legs.

"Mother," Dazhuang heard the noise and quickly stood up, quietly moving the papers on the table behind him.

Zhi Wu and Zhi Wang stopped what they were doing, stood up, and chuckled.

"Boss Ye, it's too much trouble for you to pick up and drop off Brother Dazhuang every day. How about we take him back next time? We'll make sure he doesn't get hurt at all."

Ye Wenxue glanced at the two of them with a smile and asked curiously, "What did he teach you that made you so attentive?"

Zhiwu shook his head sheepishly: "It's because we learned that you risked your life to travel through the snow at night to help us get revenge, and we felt that we were not worthy of your kindness to us."

Ye Wenxue patted his head with amusement: "Since you're grateful to me, hurry up and recover from your injury. I still need your help to make money."

Zhiwu and Zhiwang's eyes lit up. No longer resisting the two bowls of medicine on the table, which were yellower than gall and more bitter than life itself, they gulped them down and leaned close to Ye Wenxue, eagerly saying:
