Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 108 - 108 Later



108 Later

In the afternoon, Qiao Xuan spent some time on the flower field which was located at the entrance of the village.

She had used her superpower to make the trees grow, and now, some already started to bloom.

The 30 bee boxes were standing in three rows neatly, with numerous bees going in and out, buzzing around.

Qiao Xuan stopped in front of one gardenia tree that was taller than herself.

!!

She looked at the blossoms attached to the twigs, reached out for the trunk and poured in more superpower. Soon, one of the blossoms started to open itself, and gradually, while flowers covered the entire tree.

The white, egg-sized flowers were blossoming in an enticing way, covering up the trees and giving off a wonderful scent.

Qiao Xuan picked several flowers and held them in her hands. Then she put in more superpower, trying to extract the oil from them.

She rubbed the flowers, crushed the petals, and instilled her superpower gradually, extracting the water inside and then made it evaporate under the sunshine.

It was a difficult process, because the superpower wasn’t easily controlled. A small distraction might ruin the entire work.

Soon, Qiao Xuan honed her skill.

The crushed petals soon turned brown, and Qiao Xuan cast the petals all over the ground. She noticed the water drops at the tip of her finger, which was very small.

The scent was very pure and strong. It was the smell of gardenias indeed.

It must be the extracted oil from gardenias.

Qiao Xuan was overjoyed.

It seemed that she was going to pay another visit to the town. Some tools needed to be made and jars had to be bought.

She needed to have a large white porcelain bowl and pestle for pounding the medicine. The petals could not be pinched by hand. It was much easier to pound them in the bowl first, and then refine them later.

She was going to buy some sealed bottles made of jadestone for the oil.

She was not going to expand the 60 mu of flower field.

It would be too obvious.

She wasn’t afraid of the villagers, but the madam at the mansion.

She was going to do something bigger, when she grew stronger.

But she was going to do something on the sly.

She was going to buy good fields directly from the land-owners in the town. She could hire some people to take care of the land, and did not have to do everything personally.

She was not going to expand the flower field for the time being. She could grow all kinds of flowers that she wanted, but if she planted too many flowers, it would cause suspicion.

With her superpower, she could make the flowers bloom numerous times on the same field.

The superpower would grow stronger, the more she practiced it.

As Qiao Xuan was mulling over the plan, she saw that the flowers had already attracted many bees.

Qiao Xuan smiled. It seemed that they all loved it!

She also sensed that her superpower would soon grow stronger, and more fragrant.

Satisfied, Qiao Xuan left the flower field, locked the door and went home.

She had just walked into the yard, when she saw Shao Xiaoqi, Shao Taotao, Shao Junyan and Shao Qing feeding ducks and geese.

Ms. Fang was watching and laughing, standing next to them.

They dug some fish and shrimps from the bucket and cast them onto the ground. The ducks and geese were all jostling to get the food. They looked so cute and fresh, and the sight made Junyan and Shao Qing really happy.

“Mom!”

“Fifth Sister-in-law! Here!”

Qiao Xuan smiled after greeting them. “Where did the ducks come from?”
