Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 62 - 62: She Has Special Fishing Skills



Although the idea was good, implementation was challenging. She stood on the stone, immobilized, and could only wait for Little yuyu to swim towards her.

But after waiting a long time, not a single one swam into the clay pot.

“Dami, why don’t you dig a pit in the twig and catch fish to throw into it,” she suggested with a sly twinkle in her eye to Qiao Dami.

Qiao Dami agreed and began to dig the pit.

Seeing Qiao Dami was not paying attention to her, she raised an eyebrow and reached toward the little fish swimming towards her.

Then the fish entered her space. While Qiao Dami was not looking, she quickly threw the fish into the clay pot.

In the past, her space couldn’t contain living things – anything alive that went in would immediately die – but ever since she had acquired the little water pit, it could contain living creatures.

Using her space as an unfair advantage, none of the little fish that swam past her managed to escape.

When Qiao Dami finished digging a small water pit about a foot wide, and saw that more than twenty small fishes were already in the clay pot, he couldn’t help but exclaim, “Wow, my sister is amazing!”

A satisfied smile spread across Qiao Xiaomai’s face. Naturally, she was great; after all, she had a space.

Having also collected some river snails, the siblings returned home.

She spilled the fish and snails into the wooden basin, allowing them to spit out the dirt and sand, then rolled up her sleeves and began preparing lunch.

Qiao Dami expressed his desire to eat noodles, so she kneaded dough, rolled it out, sliced it, and put it in the pot to cook.

After finishing a delicious bowl of noodles, Qiao Xiaomai cleaned the pot and dishes, while Qiao Changshun started weaving baskets.

After finishing her kitchen chores, Qiao Xiaomai returned to her room and took out two pieces of silk she had bought yesterday to make underwear.

The previous owner had some basic embroidery skills. After her transmigration, she inherited these memories and awkwardly managed to do some work.

But to save trouble, she created a simple piece of underwear modeled after a sweatshirt from her previous world. It was to be worn inside, so as long as it could prevent the clothes from scratching her skin, it would suffice.

She spent the whole afternoon making a small sweatshirt and a pair of small pants for Qiao Dami, who was so overjoyed, he didn’t want to take them off.

They’re so soft!

This is the first time wearing silk clothes!

Seeing the peculiar style, Qiao Changshun asked Qiao Xiaomai, “Why is it designed this way?”

“This way is faster. We need to earn money, so we’ll do whatever is quickest,” she answered.

This reasoning made Qiao Changshun silent for a moment. “Don’t always think about earning money. You should practice embroidery too. You’re of age; when you get married, if you can’t handle needlework, you may be belittled by your in-laws.”

Qiao Xiaomai was lost for words,”…”

This body hadn’t even reached its fifteenth birthday yet!

She decided to change the subject quickly, “Dad, when can we buy back the land we sold to the Village Chief?”

Previously, to pay for Qiao Changshun’s medical treatment, the whole fifteen acres of land was sold to Tong Tiehu. Now that she had money at home, they might as well buy it back.

After the wheat was harvested, they could start planting soybeans. It wasn’t feasible to keep on buying soybeans. Growing them on their own would be more economical.

As expected, the mention of land drew Qiao Changshun’s attention immediately, “Fine!”

“But…” He paused and added, “We should first prepare the wheat and linen needed for the spring tax. It’ll be a relief once these things are bought back.”

He didn’t plan to pay with silver; it was twice as expensive in the long run.

“Alright, let’s go to town together in a few days,” Qiao Xiaomai agreed, “Let’s prepare a bit more tofu and bean curd for tomorrow.”

Whether it’s buying land or buying wheat and linen, they’ll need money.

There was only limited silver in her hand, she needed to earn more.

Qiao Changshun has no objection to this; he wished they could prepare more tofu and bean curd every day.

Therefore, before going to bed that night, Qiao Xiaomai soaked twenty pounds of soybeans..
