The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 1299: Chapter 1299: Baffling (5)

”As long as you and Ayao are fine, I won’t suffer,” Yang Ruxin wrapped her arms around Gu Qingheng’s waist. ”I’ll work hard to take care of my health and wait for your return to consummate our marriage.”

Gu Qingheng hugged Yang Ruxin tightly and then turned to leap onto his horse.

Gugu also crowed and soared into the sky, circling overhead. This time, he was also going to the battlefield. Although he wasn’t a Hai Dongqing, under Dao Xuzi’s care, he had become very fierce and spirited.

Originally, she had wanted Xiaohei and Heihei to accompany him, but Heihei was laying eggs and incubating them, so she couldn’t travel far at this time.

Though Erni felt upset, she didn’t shed tears. She just held onto Gu Yao, urging him to take care, and then let go and watched him mount his horse.

Shadow Three and Shangguan Fei were headed to the battlefield. Hesitating before mounting his horse, he approached Du Man, ”Du Man, I’ll strive to earn military honors and return. Wait for me.”

Du Man was startled, but by the time she wanted to say something, he had already turned and joined Gu Qingheng, galloping away. She stamped her foot in frustration. What was that supposed to mean?

”Don’t worry, they will surely come back safe,” Yang Ruxin sighed after everyone had disappeared, pressing down the discomfort in her heart. She turned to pat Du Man’s shoulder, ”It seems once the war is over, I’ll also need to prepare my dowry...”

”Miss, what are you saying?” Du Man stomped her foot, embarrassed, ”He’s being completely absurd.”

”It is quite absurd,” Yang Ruxin said with a laugh, spreading her hands.

Blushing, Du Man turned and ran into the yard.

”Alright, life must go on,” Yang Ruxin looked at the others again. ”They’ve gone to fight the enemy, and we need to live our lives well here, everyone keep your spirits up.”

The crowd nodded, knowing Yang Ruxin was right.

By mid-March, the weather had warmed considerably, and everyone had switched to lighter spring clothes.

The two large grain storage barns in Xiaoliu Village had been completed, and Du Yunpeng began delivering the grain he had purchased there, no longer taking it to the courtyard in the county.

Yang Ruxin took the opportunity to move the wheat from her space, having Du Yunpeng hire people to mill it into flour, and then moved it back into the space.

Although Du Yunpeng sometimes felt something was off, he never asked questions, so Yang Ruxin was very confident in him.

The village’s new building was also constructed, located adjacent to the previously used Xiaohong Building, with a small garden between them and connected by the Moon Sect gate.

This divided the compound into front and rear courtyards. Since it was ancient times, men and women could not live in the same building as they got older.

Du Chengfeng’s wife, Mrs. Ye, took over as the internal butler, so Yang Ruxin didn’t have to worry about who resided where.

The previously bought barren land had been cleared and was now planted with medicinal herbs. As for what was planted, Yang Ruxin didn’t manage it personally; Dao Xuzi and old man Tang handled it, with Li Yi and Wang Zhenggang looking after them, freeing her from the concern. Her main interest was the chili peppers.

Old man Ge really had experience. The chili plants thrived, nearly all surviving the transplant to the fields and now even bearing fruit—bright red and resembling Gold Ingots.
