《Farmer's Pampered Wife: Farming Crops To Raise A Bun》Chapter 10: Come Again?
Advertisement
Huo Li's palm tightened as the anger in his heart surged. He raised his hand and viciously pinched her arm.
"Come again?"
"Ah, you're going to break my hands and bones. Can't we just have a normal talk?"
Lin Xiaoye immediately felt a smashing pain in her wrist and her entire face was distorted. However, Huo Li had no intention of letting go as he suddenly took a step closer.
"Why are you doing this? What's your purpose?"
Lin Xiaoye shook off his hand and said: "What else can I have? I just want to live a good life, can't I do that?"
Hearing her words, Huo Li moved his neck away and stared at her.
This woman, who had no strength to fight a chicken really couldn't possibly do anything. Was he just thinking too much?
"Hey, if you don't let go, my hand will really break!"
Lin Xiaoye roared with a pained expression.
Huo Li glanced at her before letting go.
Lin Xiaoye immediately felt like she had been reborn. She quickly rubbed her wrist and moved it again.
Fortunately, it wasn't broken.
Huo Li asked, "Then why did you do those things before?"
With that, Huo Li squinted his eyes again, carefully sizing Lin Xiaoye up.
Lin Xiaoye rolled her eyes at him.
Did this man not know how to speak properly? Must he use force? Although she's different from the original owner, she's not a spy, okay?
"I used to be ignorant before, alright? This time, after I went through the gates of hell, I finally understood. What kind of people are good to me and what kind of people are bad to me, I can still tell. In the past, I lived too muddle-headedly, but now, I want to properly change my life, live a good life and take good care of Little Mochi. Can't you give me a chance to start anew?"
With that, Lin Xiaoye tiptoed over.
Immediately, both of them could feel each other's breath at a distance. As she looked at Huo Li's exquisite face that was inhumane, Lin Xiaoye felt her heart beat suddenly faster and a warm feeling gradually spread across her face.

Why was he looking at her like that?
As for Huo Li, looking at the woman in front of him. Her clear and bright eyes were pure and innocent, and full of his own reflection. There were no impurities in them at all. She seems to be different from the previous Lin Xiaoye. Moreover, looking at her face seemed not too disgusting.
Thinking this way, Huo Li didn't know that the temperature on his face had increased a little. However, after seeing her expression, his eyebrows wrinkled.
"Why are you blushing?"
Lin Xiaoye was stunned for a moment. She quickly turned her head away and touched her own face, only to discover that it was burning hot.
She suddenly felt a little guilty: "About that, let's go in quickly. Little Mochi should be worried."
After she finished speaking, Lin Xiaoye hurried back into the house.
Huo Li only relaxed a little when he saw Lin Xiaoye's leaving figure.
It would be a good thing if she really changed!
Lin Xiaoye hurried back to the table, hugged the bowl and started eating.
At this moment, a voice came from outside.
"Old Huo's wife, is Old Huo's wife here?"
Lin Xiaoye hurriedly looked over and saw that it was from Old Hu's wife. She immediately put down her utensils.
"I'm here."
Old Hu's wife immediately walked over with a smile.
"Are you having a meal?"
Lin Xiaoye immediately went out the door as well.
"I'm eating. What's the matter, sister-in-law? By the way, how's your son? Is he better now?"
Old Hu's wife smiled and said, "He's alright and was doing great. It's all thanks to you. If it weren't for you, my son would've been long gone."
As she was saying this, Old Hu's wife handed over the basket in her hands.
"This is nothing much, just a thank you for saving my son."
Lin Xiaoye opened the cloth and saw that there were quite a few eggs inside.
"Sure, then I won't be polite with Sister-in-Law. It's fine as long as your son can get well."

After she spoke, Lin Xiaoye took the basket into the house and picked up all the eggs.
Although these eggs isn't something expensive, it was still a good thing for their family. Moreover, she helped them, so it was only right for her to take some of their items. Perhaps she can win her over because of this.
With this in mind, Lin Xiaoye suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
"That's right, win her over!"
Lin Xiaoye came out with the basket.
"You're being too polite, Sister-in-Law. You even brought so many eggs. This really made me feel embarrassed."
Old Hu's wife smiled, "Sister, you don't have to be so polite. Everyone knows your family's situation and I don't have any good things for you. Those eggs are all laid by our own chicken, how could it be worth the money for saving my son's life?"
"That's right, that's right. Your son is naturally the most important thing. Alright, Sister-in-Law, if there's anything that you need help with in the future, just come and say it. As long as it's something that this younger sister can do, I will definitely help you."
Lin Xiaoye was the first to mention it.
Old Hu's wife heart was filled with gratitude towards Lin Xiaoye, but she didn't think too much into it and immediately agreed.
"Don't worry, if there's anything you need in the future, just go to my place and speak to me. I won't disturb your meal any longer, so I'll be going back first."
After saying so, Old Hu's wife took her basket and left. After walking a short distance, she turned around to take another look.
"Why is Old Huo's wife different from before?"
As she was thinking, a person suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Hu Sister-in-Law, did you just deliver something to Lin Xiaoye?"
The one who spoke was none other than Lai Wengui.
Old Hu's wife was stunned.
He came to look for Old Huo's wife again? This matter was going to get out of hand, she couldn't be bothered about it.
As she thought about it, she smiled, "Didn't Old Huo's wife save my son last time? Our family's chicken laid a few eggs, so I came over to give her some eggs. As you know, my Mother-in-Law values my son a lot."
Lai Wengui immediately smiled politely as well.
"Yes, yes, yes. Sister-in-Law, you'd better watch the child properly next time."
"Sigh… Alright, I'll be leaving first then." After speaking, Old Hu's wife hurriedly left.
Lai Wengui looked at the Huo Family's courtyard and immediately furrowed his brows.
"Why isn't this ugly woman giving me anything?"
Lai Wengui looked at Old Hu's wife, who had already walked far away and his palm suddenly tightened.
He turned around and walked to the edge of the Huo Family's courtyard. He immediately found a corner to take a look. Then, he pinched his lower lip with one hand and whistled.
He immediately looked carefully and thought that Lin Xiaoye would come out right away, but she didn't react at all after waiting for a long time.
"She didn't hear it?"
He immediately blew again, but there was still no reaction. He exerted all his strength and blew again. This time it was really loud.
Only after Lin Xiaoye was full did she put down her chopsticks in satisfaction. When she heard this sound, she was momentarily stunned.
Who was whistling? This sound...
As she was thinking, a memory suddenly popped up in her mind and she was suddenly enlightened.
So this was the secret signal between the original owner and Lai Wengui. She immediately took a look.
Lai Wengui is here?
However, Huo Li had heard the sound a long time ago. Furthermore, he knew that this was the signal for Lin Xiaoye and Lai Wengui to meet up.
He quickly turned to look at Lin Xiaoye
Will she go out?

Ætla Verǫld
AV Online was just a flash in the pan—a harsh, experimental land which lost most of its players in mere weeks. Only the dedicated few remained, carving out their destinies in corners of the vast abandoned world. Lily Quinn wasn't one of them. With a career worth millions in the esports world, she didn't have time for a game like Avo—but when an exclusive beta test for the new version showed up on her doorstep, she couldn't say no… as much as she wanted to. Literally hooked into the simulation, Lily reluctantly entered a world beyond anything she'd ever dreamed of. Accompanied by seven other beta testers desperate to save their beloved game, Lily dives into a vibrant, beautiful world, where mystery and adventure waits around every corner. Despite her reservations, Lily finds a joyful escape in Avo, shattering her cold, hollow reality. It was just a game though… until the group discovered they couldn't log out. Trapped in a game with no rules, and surrounded by cutthroat players eager to kill for a quick windfall, Lily and her ragged band have no choice but to fight their way out, or die in a game that has turned all too real. Hi there! I'm setting off on yet another adventure, come join me :3 Unusually for me, there's only one perspective this time, and it's quite a bit more action-oriented than I usually write. Don't worry, though: everything's still as character-driven as always, and I never get tired of writing dialogue. Just to acknowledge it up front: this story is heavily inspired by EVE Online and the many stories generated by that world. However, since this is a fantasy setting, not sci-fi, don't expect any real parallels. Chapter publish rate for this one will be whenever I write them, as with Epilogue. I don't expect to move as fast here though, since it's not for NaNo. The plan is chapters somewhere in the 4k-5k range, and hopefully frequently. The Last Science takes priority as always though. Special thanks to Reaver and Ace Arriande for pushing me to get this going, and to all my fellow writers whom I've stolen from been inspired by. You're all wonderful people and I love you Quick reminder: Patrons get to read ahead of what's published! Also, try my other works: The Last Science — A Tale of Modern Magic Epilogue — A Post-Fantasy Psychodrama What are you still doing on the synopsis? Get to reading!
