Extra chapter for this month because it's my friend's birthday! Happy birthday Jessa~ I love you ♡♡♡
"At this time, let's not grow other crops. Let's just focus on growing radish and cabbage."
After speaking, Lin Xiaoye looked around, then pointed to a decent empty space at the side of the yard and said, "Let's do it there. At that side of the yard. When our vegetables are ready, we can also prevent others from stealing them."
After she said that, Lin Xiaoye stuck out her tongue and smiled mischievously.
This made Huo Li startled.
She smiled?
Having been married to Lin Xiaoye for so many years, this was the first time Huo Li saw Lin Xiaoye smile sincerely and even so happily.
When she's looking like this, it seems that Lin Xiaoye isn't so ugly and she looked less annoying. Furthermore, he always feels that the birthmark on her face has been lessened by a lot?
Of course, this was all Huo Li's illusion. Lin Xiaoye is still Lin Xiaoye, but now, the iceberg in Huo Li's heart is gradually melting.
Lin Xiaoye saw that Huo Li had been staring at her without saying a word and she didn't know why she felt a little hot on her face.
Wasn't he very reluctant to take a look at herself before? Why is it today...
"Um, if you don't have any problems with that, you should clear up that land after eating. When I go buy some seeds tomorrow, we can eat fruits and vegetables in the coming spring."
Lin Xiaoye quickly changed the topic. Then she saw that Huo Li was still staring at her. Her heart was beating so fast it almost jumped out of her throat. She quickly turned around and headed to the kitchen.
As for Huo Li, he had just realized that he had been staring at her for so long.
Afterwards, after eating, Lin Xiaoye and Huo Li started their separate ways. Huo Li was at home reclaiming the land, so Lin Xiaoye took some time to rest at noon and organized the two prescriptions she had promised to give Boss Zhang.

She didn't intend to give more. These recipes were considered treasures by her, and in this era, they were priceless. If she wasn't forced to make a living, she wouldn't have been willing to take them out.
However, with this one or two recipes, she would be able to recruit some business during this period of time.
She had originally planned to send them over once she understood the situation, but seeing the current situation, she could only go back to town later.
After that, Lin Xiaoye took her ten copper coins and her two prescriptions, then headed to the town.
"Is Boss Zhang here?" Lin Xiaoye asked as she stood at the door.
When Boss Zhang heard Lin Xiaoye's voice, he quickly went out.
"Why is Miss Lin here now?"
Weren't they supposed to meet tomorrow?
Lin Xiaoye smiled: "We can't delay earning money. Oh, these are the two recipes that I've organized. Take a look first."
Boss Zhang looked at Lin Xiaoye appreciatively, then nodded in satisfaction and took the recipes and started reading them.
Taking advantage of this moment, Lin Xiaoye looked around and discovered that Boss Zhang was not just sitting around either. There were already a lot of herbs on the table and it wasn't entirely wrong to say that they were medicines, but these herbs could also be used for cooking.
Like wolfberry, angelica, astragalus and ginseng, these are all edible.
Lin Xiaoye couldn't help but smile.
It seems like she made a right decision working with Boss Zhang.
She then heard Boss Zhang recite the recipe with a serious look on his face.
"Lotus seed and lily soup, ingredients: half a catty of lean meat, one tael of lotus seed, 5 taels of lily, four sweet dates. Function: for nourishing and calming the mind, replenish qi, warm the lungs and relieve cough, improve lungs and beautify the skin, nourish spirit and calm pressure."
Boss Zhang glanced down again, then nodded his head.
"Miss Lin, I didn't think that you would be so familiar with diet therapy. I thought you would only give me a simple diet therapy."

"Since I came to work with you, I naturally had to show you my true abilities. Today, I made a total of two prescriptions, which are enough for this winter. The one you just read applies to females and the other to males. When that time comes, you can say that you can only sell the decoction based on the above effects."
Boss Zhang nodded his head: "I need to buy all of these ingredients except for the lean meat, since I have everything else in my store. I don't need to spend much money."
Although he had been doing business for many years, his herbal medicine shop was different from other people's shops. As long as someone needed it, he would bring over the medicine according to the prescription. Moreover, he doesn't have to run outside to pull people to buy medicine.
Lin Xiaoye thought for a moment, then looked at the people on the street.
"When the time comes, set up a table in front of the door and place the two soups I told you to make into two large casseroles, then put two bowls next to each of them. For a start, let someone perform with the gongs and drums, and when those people comes over, you can explain the effects of the two items to them."
Lin Xiaoye went on, "Don't worry, I'll come earlier tomorrow morning to give you a good start."
Hearing that, Boss Zhang immediately cupped his hands together, "That's great, very good!"
Now, he was truly having a whole new level of respect for Lin Xiaoye. She was probably the most knowledgeable and powerful rural woman he had ever met.
Also, she could write?
"Miss Lin, I didn't think that your medical skills would be so good and you could even read?"
Lin Xiaoye was taken aback.
Oh no, she had almost forgotten that in this era, most of the women in the village wouldn't be able to read a word or two, and even if they could, they wouldn't be able to write lots of words!
Thinking about that, Lin Xiao suddenly quivered: "Boss Zhang sure knows how to joke, how would I know how to write? Can't I ask a scholar from our village?"
Hearing this, Boss Zhang nodded his head. He didn't have any doubts about what Lin Xiaoye had said. After all, many people in the village wrote prescriptions, didn't they also look for a scholar?
After speaking, Lin Xiaoye thought of an important matter.
"Boss Zhang, would you mind lending me some money first? The weather is cold these days and my son's health is not good. I just want to take advantage of the New Year to buy some seeds and all sorts of radishes and cabbages for planting. I won't be spending so much buying these things, right?"
Boss Zhang naturally understood Lin Xiaoye: "You've worked hard, thinking about your son so much, your son will definitely be filial to you in the future as well!"
After he finished speaking, Boss Zhang was about to turn around and get some copper coins but he suddenly thought of something: "You said you want to plant? But it's winter now, how would you do it? Even if it grows, won't the vegetables wither?"
Although he had lived in the town for half his life, he was also a farmer after all.
Lin Xiaoye smiled: "Don't worry, I naturally have a way."
Fortunately, those seeds weren't considered expensive, so Boss Zhang gave her 30 copper coins, enough for her to buy them. Boss Zhang was unwilling to give her more. After all, he hasn't seen the profits from their cooperation yet.
After Lin Xiaoye finished buying seeds, she noticed that it was still early, so she followed Old Hu's instructions and arrived in front of the silversmith's shop in the town.
As soon as she arrived at the door, she saw a lot of silver ornaments hanging above the shop. There were silver bracelets, silver hairpins, earrings, necklaces and even a longevity lock. It was really complete.

The Unsorcerer
DISCLAIMER: The cover pic is not my original work. Credits goes to the Illustrator. This is a story of a man named Cipher, a 21st Century man reincarnated in a world where magic is the way of life. In the continent of Iarica, the people of this land are able to wield the crystals or magic stones for whatever purpose they desire. These people are called "Sorcerers", blessed individuals who are favored by the Gods and gifted with an ability to manipulate "Mana", the energy of the World and the energy source that makes all of the machines run. Cipher in contrast, is not. He is an "Unsorcerer", a person unable to wield the crystals and mana and eventually magic itself. Because of this "defect", he is shunned, ridiculed, and abused by most people and eventually by the whole society. Little did Iarica and her denizens know, this so-called reject of society is more than what he seems... Note: This humble Author-san is not a native English speaker, so there will be grammatical errors. Also the chapters are short, about 1K words. However I will try my best efforts on reaching the 2k-4k words threshold. Another note is that this will be a Harem fic, so to anyone who are not fan of the genre this may not be your cup of tea. Any criticsm are welcome as long it can help me to improve my writing skills since I'm just a newcomer in this scene.
